Registering with Gistable In order to be ableto use Gistable's services, a registration with Gistable is required. Individuals over the age of 18have the right to register. As a minor, you may only register with Gistable if you are at least 14years old and your legal representatives have provided their consent. Gistable reserves the right tomake the use of Gistable services contingent on proper proof of your identity, your legal age, oryour legal representative's consent. The registration itself is free of charge ("Basic Account") anddoes not oblige you to obtain a paid subscription. By registering, you are entering an agreementwith Gistable for a limited, free use of the Platform. If you have been granted your GistableAccount by your employer, registering with Gistable via the option communicated to you by youremployer is all you need to do - you can immediately use all the content covered by the contractwith your employer. You can use your e-mail address as well as a password of your choice toregister. Alternatively, you may register using a single sign-on service (for example, Facebooklogin). You can register via our website or after downloading our iOS or Android apps. Anyinformation required for registration must be complete and correct and always up-to-date. Thepassword used must be kept confidential. Keeping it a secret is solely and fully your responsibility.The Gistable user account may only be used by you. Any unauthorized use of your user account, aswell as any such suspicion to that effect should be communicated to Gistable immediately. 4.Executing an Agreement for a Paid Subscription To be able to fully benefit from Gistable's services,additional service packages in the form of paid subscriptions ("Subscription Access") are availableto you after registering. These can be purchased for different, and variable periods of time, whichyou will see in the order options. Gistable's Subscription Accesses are paid subscriptions that allowyou to access additional content and features through our mobile and web-based applications. Wecurrently offer the following subscription / service package: The Gistable Premium service packageincludes access to our whole library, i.e. to all of our Platform Content in both text and audio. If youreceive your Gistable access through your employer, you generally have access to the GistablePremium service package. However, there may be deviations due to individual agreements betweenGistable and your employer. You will have access to the respective services as long as yoursubscription is valid. If you want to purchase your Gistable Premium subscription via our website,you submit a legally binding offer for a fee-based subscription, by you entering the informationrequested in the online order form and then clicking on the "Subscribe now" (or similar) button. Thecontract is concluded when Gistable issues a notice of acceptance (order confirmation), which willbe sent to you by email within a reasonable time. If you purchased your fee-based subscription viaGistable's web-based app Gistable will send the order confirmation to you by email together withthe receipt confirmation immediately following your order. If you purchased your fee-basedsubscription via an in-app purchase (please also see Section 4 (5)) you will receive a receiptconfirmation following your order from the third party appstore and Gistable will send to you thenotice of acceptance (order confirmation) by separate email. In both cases, the text of the contract(consisting of the order, the General Terms and Conditions and the order confirmation) will be sentto you by Gistable on a permanent data carrier (email) (contract confirmation). Your subscriptionbegins on this date. You can also sign up for a paid subscription through an in-app purchase throughour iOS or Android apps. In order to do this, you must select the desired option on the subscriptionscreen within the app, and a pop-up will appear where you have to enter your password for the thirdparty appstore. As soon as you finish, a pop-up will appear in which you have to confirm thepurchase of the subscription again. At this point you can still cancel the process. You should thenreceive a receipt confirmation from the third party appstore (not directly from Gistable). 5. Trials/Testing Phases Gistable occasionally offers in particular to new users free-of-charge SubscriptionAccess for testing purposes for a certain period of time ("Trial"). Gistable determines, at its solediscretion, if you may participate in a Trial. In case of an important reason, Gistable maydiscontinue or change such free Trial at any time without prior notice or notification. You can onlyparticipate in certain Trials if you enter your payment details when you sign up for the Trial. In sucha case, we need your consent at the beginning of the Trial that your free access will be convertedinto a paid Subscription Access (Section 4) on the day following the end of the Trial. Yoursubscription then generally renews on a recurring basis. It can be terminated up to one day beforethe end of the respective subscription period (Section 10 (2)). You will always be clearly informedof this process before you subscribe to your Trial. If, in a case of Section 5 (2) , you do not wish tohave the Subscription Access and the charge associated with it, you must cancel your SubscriptionAccess before the end of the Trial (for example, by simply going to your Gistable Account Settingsor the respective app store settings). We grant a 14-day money-back guarantee for subscriptions thatare purchased via our website (Section 4 (3-4)). If you have purchased a Subscription Access as anin-app purchase (Section 4 (5)), we have no influence on refunds and therefore cannot guarantee arefund within 14 days. Your statutory claims remain unaffected by this. 6. Individual Purchase ofContent From time to time, we also offer you the opportunity to purchase additional, individualPlatform Content to test our offer without having to purchase a full Subscription Access You submita legally binding offer for the individual content that you have selected, if you enter the informationrequested in the online order formand then click on the button "Buy now" (or similar).
