If the customer does not agree with these changes or amendments, he can object to these changes. The objection has to be made in written form. If the customer does not object or objects outside the objection period, Cabanova considers the customer to have accepted the changes.

According to paragraph 5 the right of objection and termination only applies to changes in pricing and not to mere changes in Cabanova's service packages.

6. If a customer’s objection according to paragraph 5 is based on marginal package changes that affect only one or a few package features which are reasonable for the customer, and if it is unreasonable for Cabanova to further provide the customer with the contractually agreed services for economic and organisational reasons, for instance in the case of necessary changes of the technical conditions for the use of the service package, Cabanova will have the special right to cancel the contract giving one week notice prior to the intended date the changes will take effect. Fees paid in advance will be paid back to the customer proportionally.


Services

4. Customers that violate the obligations under Fig. 3, paragraphs 2 and 3, are obliged to pay a penalty of at least 2.500,00 EUR


Hosting


1. The content of the customers website is saved on the Cabanova server and is held available to be accessed over the Internet. The services provided by Cabanova confine to the data communication between the exchange point of the Cabanova data communication network and the Internet, and the server provided to the customer. Therefore Cabanova does not owe a successful forwarding of the information from or to the requesting computer and any obligation for a successful forwarding is therefore excluded.

2. Cabanova is authorized to perform server maintenances for a total of 5 hours in a calendar month from 8:00 am to 11:00 am. During these maintenance hours Cabanova's services may not be available.

3. The overall availability of the services provided by Cabanova thus will reach 98% on an average. This excludes restrictions in service provision that lie beyond Cabanova's influence, especially due to force majeure such as power failure, other technical conditions beyond Cabanova's control or acts of third persons not authorized by Cabanova.

4. Cabanova is authorized to change the IP- addresses of their servers. The customer has no claim to an identical IP- address.

5. The quantity of the data transfer volume of the Free package is based on the product specific service description according in the Packages page. Any data transfer beyond this will result in the immediate suspension of the published website, until the first day of the following calendar month. Cabanova will inform the customer about the suspension of the website. The Free package does not offer the possibility of transferring data from a computer to the Cabanova server via FTP. Cabanova is authorized to place advertisements on the customers website.

6. The quantity of the data transfer volume of the packages requiring payment is as described in the Packages page and where relevant based on the Cabanova Fair Use Policy.

7. Customers may order second-level-domains, unless this is not permitted or granted by the registration office. The selection of and check for the legal admissibility of the domain is the matter of the customer. The second-level-domain is registered through Cronon AG or another registrar.

No guarantee is given to the customer that their preferred domain name will be registered. In relation to the customer, Cabanova only functions as a mediator and is therefore only responsible for the transfer of the customer wish to the Cronon AG or a different registrar respectively.

8. Cabanova reserves the right to change and upgrade the applied hardware and software to the actual state of the art at any time. If these changes result in additional requirements to be met by the user’s contents stored on our servers, Cabanova will give notice of these additional requirements five weeks in advance. After receipt of this notice the client will then immediately have to decide, if and when these additional requirements will be met. If the client does not declare at least two weeks before system modifications take place, that he will adapt his contents appropriately and on time, i.e. 3 working days before the date of the system modification, Cabanova reserves the right to cancel the contractual relationship after a term of 7 days starting from the day of system modification.

Therefore, the service regarding incoming emails consists of the receiving of the email at the exchange node between the Cabanova communication network and the Internet, and keeping the email for retrieval by the customer. If the addressed computer is part of the Cabanova communication network, the data communication will be carried out between the dial-up node and this computer. Since Cabanova has no influence on data traffic occurring outside of the Cabanova communication network, Cabanova does not owe a successful forwarding of information from, or to any computer targeted by the customer.

5. The maximum amount of web space provided to the customer results from the product package specifications set forth in the Packages page. If this email storage capacity is exceeded through an incoming email, Cabanova has the right to reject the email. The customer will not be informed about this rejection.

Incidentally, Cabanova’s obligation to save emails is restricted to the contract runtime only. Upon contract termination Cabanova will delete the all saved emails. The overall availability of the services provided by Cabanova thus will reach 98% on an average. This excludes restrictions in service provision that lie beyond Cabanova's influence, especially due to force majeure such as power failure, other technical conditions beyond Cabanova's control or acts of third persons not authorized by Cabanova.
