Preamble

Preamble.

Under the domain x7.to x7 provides a multimedia platform on the Internet (the "Platform"), permitting Users to upload and publish information of their own (including files and content). In particular, the services under x7.to provide Users with a virtual storage place, enabling them to store files such as videos, images or documents and display them on the Platform.

1. Scope.

1.1: x7 renders its services exclusively on the basis of these Terms of Service ("TOS"). By using the x7.to Platform, the User agrees to the application of these TOS.

1.2: x7 hereby reserves the right to modify the substance of these TOS without the User's consent (with prospective effect), provided that, taking account of x7's interests, it is reasonable to the User for x7 to do so. x7 shall notify Users of amendments of this kind on the Platform. Sec. 11.3 shall remain unaffected hereby.

1.3: The terms and conditions contained in these TOS do not create any third party beneficiary rights.

1.4: The User acknowledges that, as between x7 and the User, x7 is the exclusive owner of any and all rights to the products and services offered by it, including any intellectual property rights. The foregoing shall not apply to information (including files and content) uploaded by Users. The User is not authorised to make use of these rights belonging to x7 without x7's prior express written consent (e.g. to copy x7's website in whole or in part and to use it on other websites) or to remove references to x7's status as right holder.

1.4: Definitions:

2. General services of x7.

2.1: x7 offers its Users access to its Platform. x7 is entitled to permit access to certain services only to registered Users.

2.2: x7 shall endeavour to keep the Platform available 24 hours a day. Users shall have no entitlement to uninterrupted availability of the Platform. In particular, x7 reserves the right to impose temporary restrictions on its contractual services in view of measures it needs to take for operational or security-relevant reasons (in particular for preventive maintenance). x7 shall endeavour to provide reasonable prior notice of such measures, to the extent that they are planned, and in all other respects it shall restore availability within a reasonable time, in view of the cause of disruption. To the extent that x7's Platform should not be available, this shall not give rise to any claims by Users for warranty or compensatory damages or reimbursement of expenditures.

2.3: In the event of interruptions to availability, it is possible that - in exceptional cases - it may not be possible to record/log a small number of queries. Should this occur, this shall not give rise to any claims by Users against x7 for warranty or compensatory damages or reimbursement of expenses.

2.4: To the extent and for so long as an event of force majeure is present, x7 shall have no obligation to perform its services. In particular, force majeure shall be deemed to include strikes, lock-outs, delays to or failure of supplies by suppliers, where such are caused by an event of force majeure, electrical power outages and disruptions to or destruction of data transmission lines lying outside of the scope of x7's responsibility, orders or dispositions by public authorities or courts, attacks by Users or third parties (e.g. by malicious scripts (such as computer viruses) or DoS attacks) that x7 would not have been in a position to prevent, even in the exercise of such care as is reasonable in the circumstances. Circumstances shall not preclude the presence of a force majeure event merely because x7 is, as a general matter, obliged to carry out certain security measures.

2.5: x7 is entitled to make changes to its Platform in terms of content and design. In particular, x7 is entitled to make further developments to the Platform to maintain or improve its services, and to adapt it to current technical developments.

Uploading of information (including files and content) (Upload).

3.1: x7 does not assume any warranty or responsibility for the timeliness, completeness and correctness of any information uploaded by Users (including files and content).

3.2: x7 is not obliged to monitor the information transmitted or stored by it or to investigate it for facts or circumstances indicating illegal activities. x7's obligations to remove or block the use of information pursuant to the general provisions of law remains unaffected by the foregoing.

3.3: The information uploaded by Users (including data and content), which x7 stores for those Users, is third-party information as to x7. x7 does not adopt such information as its own.

3.4: To the extent the information uploaded by Users (including files and content) make use of hyperlinks referring to websites of third parties ("external websites"), such references shall likewise be deemed third-party information as to x7. x7 does not adopt any such information as its own. x7 does not assume any warranty or responsibility for the availability of external websites.

3.5: x7 shall, in particular, not be responsible for information which, as to x7, is third- party information where x7 (i) has no knowledge of any illegal act or of the information, and in cases involving claims for compensatory damages, x7 is unaware of facts or circumstances from which any such illegal act or information would be obvious, or (ii) x7 has acted without delay to remove the information or to block access to it as soon as x7 gained knowledge thereof. No third-party rights are created by the foregoing.

3.6: By uploading information (including files and content) the User grants x7 a simple right of use, free-of-charge and unlimited in geographical scope, to that information, including the right to duplicate it and make it available publicly on x7's Platform for such time as the User has stored this information on x7's Platform. Sec. 8 hereof remains unaffected by the foregoing.

3.7: Unless otherwise agreed, the User shall have no claim for compensation in exchange for uploading information (including files and content). However, x7 is entitled to grant benefits to Users in its free discretion for such uploading of information.

3.8: The User shall have no right to store information (including files and content) on x7's website and/or to make such information publicly available where that information is incompatible with these TOS and/or applicable law.

3.9: In particular, all information (including files and content) shall be deemed incompatible with these TOS which:

is racist, glorifies violence or war, trivialises violence or incites sedition;
denies or trivialises acts committed under National Socialist rule;
incites hatred against sections of the population or against a national, racial, religious or ethnic group, invites violent or capricious acts against such groups or attacks human dignity of other persons by insulting, maliciously ridiculing or defaming sections of the population or one of the above-referenced groups;

is pornographic, in particular containing depictions involving children or minors in inappropriate, sexually suggestive positions, sexual abuse or displays sexual acts of humans with animals.
is obviously apt to constitute a grave risk to the development of children and minors or their upbringing as responsible members within the community, taking into account the particular influence of the medium of dissemination.

3.10: x7 is entitled, without prior notice and in its free discretion, to block User information (including content and files), in whole or in part, or to delete such information in whole or in part, where it is incompatible with these TOS and/or with applicable law.

3.11: In particular, x7 is entitled without prior notice and in its free discretion to block or delete User information (including files and content) in whole or in part or to store information (including files and content) under another link than the one initially indicated in whole or in part

where third parties assert claims against x7, referring to a breach or an infringement of their rights, in particular infringements of intellectual property rights, demanding that x7 cease storing and making such information available to the public, or
where public authorities or courts direct x7 to cease storing and making publicly available such information, referring to an infringement of rights or violation of the law.

The provisions set forth in sections 8.5, 11.1.7 and 11.2.5 shall, supplementally, apply.

3.12: The User shall indemnify and hold x7 harmless against all claims which third parties assert against x7 for infringement of their rights by the User or due to violations of applicable law by the User.

4. Affiliate Programme.

4.1: Any registered User is authorised to participate in x7's Affiliate Programme. x7 is entitled to design the substance of the Affiliate Programme and the remuneration models in its free discretion, and to modify such at any time with prospective effect. Sec. 11.3 shall not apply in respect thereof. In particular, x7 shall be entitled to restrict the validity of benefits in time and to specify a period at the end of which such benefits shall lapse. No interest shall be payable on any benefits, in particular on the x7 credit account

4.2: x7 publishes the current and updated contents of its Affiliate Programme and the remuneration models at x7.to.

4.3: As of the November/December 2009 period, the x7 Affiliate Programme consists of the following remuneration models for Uploaders and a separate points system:

4.3.1: Commission credit for first-time orders:
Users are included as x7 Affiliate Programme participants through the storage of data by means of cookies which are transmitted to the potential User when he or she accesses x7 links and which are stored for 30 days by means of browser software. In this way, a User is included as an x7 Affiliate Programme participant. Thus, Users who have uploaded data and have generated the x7 link on that basis shall receive commission credit in the amount of EUR 5 (as of this time) for first-time orders with respect to each Premium Account successfully referred by that User provided that the non-registered x7 User has enabled the use of cookies (as described above) on his computer. Excepted from the foregoing are referrals of Premium Accounts with a term of only 72 hours. Users with premium rates that are limited to a 72-hour period shall not be entitled to any commission.

4.3.2: Subsequent commission:
In addition, subsequent commission in the amount of EUR 2 (as of the present time) shall be credited where a Premium Account User the affiliate previously solicited extends the term of his account. Excepted from the foregoing are Premium Account referrals with a term of only 72 hours. Users with premium rates that are limited to a 72-hour period shall not be entitled to any commission.

4.3.3: Points system:
Every download by non-registered x7 Users of an upload which an Uploader has placed on the website generates one point in that Uploader's point ystem account, provided that the size of the file is in excess of 100 megabytes. Only one point is available for a non-registered x7 User within 24 hours of his or her first-time download ("Block on Reloads"). Affiliates may use points they have collected exclusively to upgrade their x7 accounts. In this respect an x7 User may upgrade his account to Premium Service for one month already for 10,000 points. Users have no right whatsoever to have collected points paid out in cash.

4.3.4: Download-dependent compensation:
x7 shall pay to the Uploader one EUR-cent each per download by non-registered x7 Users, where the file exceeds 100 megabytes in size. In this respect, a Block on Reloads is enabled, as well, which only permits further remuneration for the same User after the expiry of a 24-hour period.

4.4: Users are not permitted:

To procure or cause x7 to grant benefits under x7's Affiliate Programme by violating applicable law or breaching these TOS, or
to obtain the grant of benefits under the Affiliate Programme by fraud or
to circumvent the terms and conditions of the Affiliate Programme.

4.5: In the event of a breach of sec. 4.4 hereof, x7 is entitled to withdraw benefits which have been granted and - to the extent necessary and appropriate - to temporarily block that User's access or to exercise extraordinary termination of its agreement with the User in cases of repeated breach and after having given a warning to no avail.

5. Modes of payment.

5.1: Application for payment.

5.1.1: The assertion of a claim for payment is predicated on the User's submission of an application for payment to x7, containing such details as are necessary to enable x7 to review the fulfilment of prerequisites of the payment and to facilitate the payment.

5.1.2: x7 is entitled to determine in its free discretion how payment shall be effected. In particular x7 is entitled to stipulate that payment shall be made via Paypal, bank transfer and/or Webmoney. The User shall notify x7 in his or her application for payment which of the payment methods offered by x7 he or she is selecting.

5.1.3: The User is only entitled to submit an application for payment when he or she has a credit balance of at least EUR 25 and when applying for payment of an amount of at least EUR 25.

5.2: Payment.

5.2.1: x7 shall immediately review the User's application for payment. x7's review shall also include a review of the User's compliance with x7's TOS. x7 shall prepare a statement of account for each application for payment submitted by a registered User. Where, following x7's review, x7 determines that there are no obstacles to payment, x7 shall timely pay the amount determined upon completion of its review (where possible within 30 business days) by such method of payment as the User has selected.

5.2.2: Where the User so requests and it is necessary for tax reasons, x7 shall generate a receipt which comports with the requirements of tax law for each payment to the User. Where the User with an entitlement to payment does not report his income from x7 on the basis of commercial activity or where he fails to furnish proper evidence in this regard to x7, disbursement shall be made as a credit minus 19% fees.

6. Deletion of information (including files and content).

6.1: Subject to any amendment to these TOS (sec. 11.3), x7 is authorised:

to delete files uploaded by a Free Account User which have not been downloaded for more than 90 days since the last download thereof, and
to delete files uploaded by a Premium Account User which have not been downloaded for more than 360 days since the last download thereof.

6.2: When a User acquires a Premium Account, he or she is entitled to unlimited download volume from such time as the Premium Account is activated.

6.3: Notwithstanding what is set forth under sec. 6.1 and 6.2 hereof, x7 is entitled to decline to upload information (including content and files) to block or to delete information or to store information under another link than the one initially indicated where the information uploaded by the User (including content and files) breaches applicable law or these TOS. In particular, this shall apply in respect of files which glorify violence, contain discriminatory, racist or copyrighted content, or in cases in which a demand has been made or an obligation imposed on x7 to block, delete or store in a different manner such information, or where a User or a third party forwards information to x7 which is relevant under sec. 6.5 hereof.

6.4: Where the User violates applicable law or breaches these TOS and x7 or one of its Sponsors incurs financial losses or expenses, the User shall be liable to pay compensation for such losses and expenses.

6.5: x7 strives to protect third-party rights to intellectual property. Where a User suspects or gains knowledge of information (including files and content) which breaches these TOS or violates applicable law or infringes third-party intellectual property rights, x7 requests Users to notify it of the links to such illegal information (including files and content) by e-mail to the address a@x7.to (where possible, indicating the infringed work). x7 is authorised to remove the illegal information (including files and content) or to place it in x7's data filter list.

7. No index of stored information (including files and content).

7.1: x7 has no control over who downloads information (including files and content) which a User has uploaded to x7's Platform. x7 does not provide information to third parties as to the web address under which information (including files and content) are stored on x7.'s Platform, except where x7 is obliged to do so. These TOS do not give rise to any duty on the part of x7 to provide or make available an index of information (including files and content) available on x7's Platform.

8. Rights to use information (including files and content).

8.1: The Uploader grants x7 the right to overlay advertising (the style and content of which x7 may determine in its free discretion) on the x7 Platform, in particular in connection with the downloading of information (including files and content) which the Uploader has uploaded to the x7 Platform. Within the meaning of this section, 'Advertising', in particular, includes banners, links, buttons, videos and pop-ups.

8.2: The Uploader grants x7 the right to create scaled-down images (thumbnails) of files containing images and videos to enable easier use of x7's website and to integrate such thumbnails within a search function or otherwise into x7's Platform.

8.3: The Uploader grants x7 the right to make such changes to the information (including content and files) as are necessary due to technical processing and transmission, in particular to perform transmission of the information (including content and files) via various networks and to make technical modifications in order to comply with the technical requirements of linked networks or other technical facilities.

8.4: The Uploader warrants to x7 that the Uploader holds all necessary rights with respect to the uploaded information (including content and files) and, in particular, that it holds the right to store, process, publish and/or transmit the information (including content and files), whether as the copyright holder or as the holder of a right of use, and that such rights are of the scope and extent required under these TOS. The Uploader further warrants that by uploading the information (including content and files), and in particular in the associated processes of storing, processing, publishing or transmitting the information (including content and files), no third-party rights and no laws which may be applicable have been breached or violated. In the event of a breach of the foregoing warranties by the Uploader, as between the Uploader and x7, the Uploader shall indemnify and hold x7 harmless against any and all liability to third parties.

8.5: In the event of a serious violation of applicable law or a serious breach of these TOS, x7 is entitled to block the User's access to x7's Platform, to exercise extraordinary termination of the agreement with the User and to deprive the User in whole or in part of any benefits granted under the Affiliate Programme, including any credit balances.

Cardinal Duties are obligations without the satisfaction of which it is not possible to properly perform the contract at all and as to which the User may rely on x7's compliance. x7 hereby excludes no-fault liability under sec. 536a (1) modality (1) of the German Civil Code for defects which were already present at the time the agreement was entered into.
