7.  Term and Termination

7.1 A. Laufzeit eines kostenpflichtigen Abonnements, wenn du Verbraucher bist und deinen ständigen Wohnsitz in Deutschland hast: 

Das kostenpflichtige Abonnement für den Abo-Zugang (siehe Ziff. 4.) läuft mindestens für die von dir ursprünglich gewählte Laufzeit und verlängert sich automatisch auf unbestimmte Zeit, wenn es nicht spätestens 24 Stunden vor Ablauf dieser Zeit gekündigt wird. Sofern du dein ursprüngliches kostenpflichtiges Abonnement nicht oder nicht rechtzeitig gekündigt hast, kannst du das Verlängerungsabonnement jederzeit unter Einhaltung einer Kündigungsfrist von einem Monat kündigen. Die Kündigung kannst du wie folgt vornehmen:

  • Kostenpflichtige Abonnements, die du über unsere Website (www.myfitcoach.app) abgeschlossen hast, kannst du unter dem Menüpunkt „Mein Konto“ auf der Website (www.myfitcoach.app) kündigen. Abonnements, die du über Digistore24 abgeschlossen hast, kannst du direkt auf der Website www.digistore24.com kündigen. Kündigst du dein Verlängerungsabonnement vor Ablauf von jeweils 12 Monaten, so erstatten wir dir die Kosten für die nicht mehr genutzten Monate anteilig auf die von dir gewählte Zahlungsmethode zurück.
  • Ein über unsere iOS- oder Android-Apps abgeschlossenes kostenpflichtiges Abonnement kannst du in Deinen iTunes- oder Google-Play-Einstellungen kündigen. Kündigst du dein Verlängerungsabonnement vor Ablauf von jeweils 12 Monaten, so erstattet in diesem Fall direkt der jeweilige Drittanbieter-App-Store Anbieter deine Kosten für die nicht mehr genutzten Monate. Jedoch können wir dafür keine Garantie geben, da die Drittanbieter-App-Store eigenständig über Rückerstattungen entscheiden.

B. Laufzeit eines kostenpflichtigen Abonnements, wenn du entweder kein Verbraucher bist, oder deinen ständigen Wohnsitz außerhalb Deutschlands hast: Das kostenpflichtige Abonnement für den Abo-Zugang (siehe Ziff. 4.) läuft mindestens für die von Dir ursprünglich gewählte Laufzeit und verlängert sich automatisch, wenn es nicht spätestens 24 Stunden vor Ablauf dieser Zeit gekündigt wird. Die Abonnementlaufzeit verlängert sich entsprechend dem bisher in Anspruch genommenen Abonnementmodell. Die Kündigung kannst du wie folgt vornehmen:

  • Kostenpflichtige Abonnements, die du über unsere Website (www.myfitcoach.app) abgeschlossen hast, kannst du unter dem Menüpunkt „Mein Konto“ auf der Website (www.myfitcoach.app) kündigen. Abonnements, die du über Digistore24 abgeschlossen hast, kannst du direkt auf der Website www.digistore24.com kündigen.
  • Ein über unsere iOS- oder Android-Apps abgeschlossenes kostenpflichtiges Abonnement kannst du in deinen iTunes- oder Google-Play-Einstellungen kündigen.

7.2 Wir sind berechtigt, den Nutzungsvertrag ohne Angabe von Gründen mit einer Frist von zwei Wochen in Textform zu kündigen, frühestens jedoch zum Ende der Mindestlaufzeit beziehungsweise des jeweiligen Verlängerungszeitraums deines Abonnements.

8. Right of Withdrawal

In some countries, you have a statutory right of revocation, such as throughout the European Union. Whether this is the case, you can find out, for example, in the terms of use of the respective store provider. Please inform yourself there to what extent such rights apply to you. In the United States of America, for example, you do not have a right of revocation.

Insofar as you have a statutory right of revocation, we inform you in the appendix how you can assert it, and what a revocation means for you.

9. Warranty for Defects

9.1 For claims due to defective services, the statutory provisions apply. Your rights as a consumer remain unaffected in any case.

9.2 We cannot guarantee results or improvements regarding your health, weight, muscle mass, body fat, and/or condition. We make no assurances or warranties that the desired training or other results will be achieved by using the MyFitCoach App. We do not owe any specific success. Additionally, training results are influenced by uncontrollable factors, such as physical predispositions, genetic potential, and preconditions, so that the results can vary greatly among different individuals despite the same use of the MyFitCoach App. 

10. Liability in other respects

10.1 We are liable according to statutory provisions for damages caused by us or our agents through intent or gross negligence.

10.2 In the case of simple negligence, subject to a milder liability standard according to statutory provisions, we are only liable for

- damages resulting from injury to life, body or health

- damages resulting from the significant breach of a fundamental contractual obligation (an obligation the fulfillment of which makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place, and on the compliance with which the contractual partner regularly relies and may rely); in this case, however, our liability is limited to the compensation of the foreseeable, typically occurring damage.

10.3 These limitations of liability also apply to breaches of duty by or for the benefit of persons whose fault we are responsible for according to statutory provisions. They do not apply to claims under the Product Liability Act or insofar as we have fraudulently concealed a defect or have given a guarantee.

11. Changes to the General Terms and Conditions

We reserve the right to change and adapt these General Terms and Conditions with effect for the future if this is necessary due to altered legal, regulatory, or technical conditions and if the changes are reasonable considering your interests in good faith. 

We will notify you of the changes at least four weeks before the planned effective date of the new version of the General Terms and Conditions. Within this period, you have the opportunity to object to the change. If you continue to use our services without objection, the new General Terms and Conditions are considered accepted. If you object, we expressly reserve our ordinary termination rights. If we change the General Terms and Conditions, we will notify you separately about your right to object, the period for this, and the respective legal consequences.

12. Online Dispute Resolution

We would like to point out that, in addition to the ordinary legal process, you also have the option of an out-of-court settlement of disputes in accordance with Regulation (EU) No. 524/2013. Details can be found in Regulation (EU) No. 524/2013 and at the internet address: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr

Consumer information: Non-participation in a dispute resolution procedure. 

We are neither willing nor obliged to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board. You can find our email address in the imprint.

13. Final Provisions

12.1 The contract is governed exclusively by German law, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). In transactions with consumers within the European Union, the law of the consumer's place of residence may also apply if mandatory consumer protection regulations are involved.

13.2 If you do not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany or in another EU member state, or if you have moved your permanent residence to a country outside the EU after these general terms and conditions have taken effect, or if your residence or habitual place of residence is not known at the time a lawsuit is filed, the exclusive jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract is our place of business.

13.3 The contract language is German.

13.4 Should individual provisions of this contract be invalid, this does not affect the remainder of the contract.

To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us, MyFitCoach GmbH, Marie-Jahn-Straße 20, 30177 Hannover, support@myfitcoach.de, by means of a clear statement (e.g., a letter sent by post or e-mail) about your decision to withdraw from this contract.

Consequences of Withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we must refund you all payments we have received from you immediately and at the latest within fourteen days from the day we received your notice of withdrawal from this contract.

The right to withdraw from the purchase of coaching expires once we have begun execution of the contract, i.e., providing the coaching content in the MyFitCoach app, after you have expressly agreed that we begin the execution of the contract before the end of the withdrawal period, and you have confirmed your awareness that by your consent at the beginning of the execution of the contract, you lose your right of withdrawal.
