Informal Negotiations
Before initiating a formal dispute resolution procedure, you and EchtSchreib agree to attempt to resolve all disputes informally for at least thirty (30) days after one party has notified the other party in writing.
Binding Arbitration
If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, any unresolved dispute will be settled through binding arbitration in accordance with generally applicable rules. Arbitration will be conducted on an individual basis, and neither party may participate in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Should you initiate or participate in a class or representative proceeding, EchtSchreib may immediately terminate your access to our Services. Furthermore, any claim must be brought within two (2) years from the date on which the cause of action arose. Should any part of the arbitration clause be found invalid or unenforceable, the remainder shall remain in full force and effect.
20. CORRECTIONS
There may be errors, inaccuracies, or omissions in the information provided through our Services. EchtSchreib reserves the right to correct errors or update information at its sole discretion without prior notice.
21. DISCLAIMER
THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. YOU AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ECHTSCHREIB DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
ECHTSCHREIB DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT THE SERVICES OR ANY CONTENT WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR UNINTERRUPTED, AND WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ERRORS, MISTAKES, OR INACCURACIES IN CONTENT. ANY RELIANCE ON THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
22. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY
IN NO EVENT SHALL ECHTSCHREIB, ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY IS BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF ECHTSCHREIB HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
YOUR TOTAL LIABILITY, WHETHER UNDER CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID, IF ANY, FOR ACCESS TO THE SERVICES. SOME LAWS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
23. INDEMNIFICATION
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless EchtSchreib, its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, and employees from all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) arising out of or in any way connected with your access to or use of the Services, your Contributions, your breach of these legal terms, or your violation of the rights of third parties.
24. USER DATA
EchtSchreib maintains data that you transmit through our Services solely for the administration and operation of the Services and for analytical purposes. While we regularly perform routine data backups, you are responsible for all data you provide. EchtSchreib is not liable for any loss or damage to your data.

27. MISCELLANEOUS
These legal terms, together with any additional policies we publish on the Services, constitute the entire agreement between you and EchtSchreib. Our failure to enforce any provision of these legal terms does not constitute a waiver of that provision. We may assign or transfer our rights and obligations herein without notice to you.
Should any provision of these legal terms be found invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be severed from these legal terms, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. These legal terms do not create any joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship.
28. REFUNDS
By subscribing to our Services, you acknowledge that EchtSchreib grants you immediate access to digital features and that usage begins immediately after purchase. This means that you waive your right to the standard 14-day withdrawal period. Due to the high costs of operating AI models and server resources, all payments are non-refundable, as resources are allocated and costs are incurred as soon as you begin using the Service.
EchtSchreib operates on a subscription model that is available monthly or annually. Subscriptions automatically renew for the same period unless you cancel before the renewal date. You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time through the billing section of our website. Please note that cancellation does not entitle you to a refund or credit for payments already made.
We reserve the right to adjust prices, features (such as available credits or models), or service offerings at any time. Price changes for subscription plans will only take effect at your next renewal.
Unless otherwise stated, subscription fees do not include taxes or levies. You are responsible for paying all taxes incurred in connection with your purchase. We may require proof of payment or other documentation for tax compliance purposes. In the event of overdue payments, your access to the Service may be suspended after written notice.
You are not permitted to create multiple accounts to take advantage of free usage. If we detect abuse or bad faith behavior, we may suspend your account or charge standard fees accordingly.
29. MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS
By creating an account or providing your email address, you agree to receive marketing communications from EchtSchreib, including newsletters, promotions, and product updates.
You may unsubscribe from these communications at any time by clicking the "Unsubscribe" link in a marketing email or by contacting us at echtschreib@gmail.com. Please note that you will continue to receive essential service-related emails that are necessary for the operation of your account.
