Terms of Purchase SkillUp
The English and German versions of this document are legally binding.
These terms of purchase apply to, and form a part of, all agreements on purchases by a customer (the “Customer”) from TicTac (as defined below) of subscriptions of licences (the “Licence”) (the “Agreement”).
By purchasing a Licence, the relevant TicTac Entity (as defined below) will provide the Customer with access to the SkillUp platform (the “Services”) on the terms and conditions of these terms of purchase for an initial period of 12 months, unless another agreement period is agreed in writing between TicTac and the Customer.
Access to the SkillUp platform is granted for a period of 12 months from the start date specified in the contract. The customer has the option to extend the access period by an additional 12 months, provided that a request is made at least 14 days before the agreement's expiration.
Terms of service
By using the Services, the Customer agrees to the Skillhabit Terms and conditions (the “General Terms of Use”).

If the Customer has its registered place of business in Germany, the contracting party will be TicTac Learn GmbH, Reg. No. HRB 252252, having its registered office at Unter den Linden 40, D-10117 Berlin, Germany (“TicTac GmbH”).
If the Customer has its registered place of business in Denmark, the contracting party will be TicTac Learn Denmark A/S, Reg. No. 27057640, having its registered office at Dampfærgevej 9, 2100 Copenhagen, Denmark (“TicTac A/S”).

Period of the agreement, renewal & cancellation (for non-German customers)
If the Customer has its registered place of business in any other country than Germany, the Agreement has an initial binding period of 12 months from the date of activation, unless otherwise agreed in writing between TicTac and the Customer. Activation is made in connection with the Customer’s purchase of the Licence. However, there may be up to 2 business days' delay before the Licence is activated. The Customer will be informed via email when the Licence has been activated. The Agreement is automatically renewed for a period of 12 months at a time unless notice of cancellation or notice of reduction of the number of seats has been given in writing by the Customer at least 30 days before the expiration of the initial term or each such prolonged term. If the Customer gives notice of reduction of the number of seats at least 30 days before the expiration of an initial or prolonged term, the Agreement will be amended accordingly and renewed for such new number of seats.
Limitation of liability (for German customers)
If the Customer has its registered place of business in Germany, TicTac’s liability for damages – irrespective of its legal basis – shall be limited to damages caused by wilful intent or gross negligence. TicTac shall also be liable for simple negligence in case of damages which result from the breach of material contractual obligations (i.e. an obligation which is material for the performance of the contract and compliance with which the other party regularly expects and may expect) but, in this case, TicTac’s liability shall be limited to typical damages which TicTac could have foreseen as a possible consequence of such breach at the time of entering into the respective agreement.
The limitations of liability do not apply:
a. in case of damages to life, body or health,
b. if and to the extent TicTac has maliciously deceived a defect,
c. if and to the extent TicTac has assumed a guarantee for the quality of goods, or
d. for claims of the Customer under the applicable law on product liability.
For the avoidance of doubt, any liability without fault is expressly excluded.
