Terms of service

1. Provider and scope

These General Terms and Conditions apply to the use of the platform fahrschuldaten.de.

The provider is:

VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) Am Pichelssee 58 13595 Berlin Germany Email: info@fahrschuldaten.de

The platform is aimed in particular at driving schools, businesses and other commercial users. Where consumers use publicly accessible information, these terms apply accordingly to the extent applicable.

2. Subject matter of the platform

fahrschuldaten.de is a digital platform for structured capture, maintenance, review and publication of driving school, location, class and price data.

The platform serves in particular to:

• enable driving schools to easily maintain their price and location data,
• manage price lists and price list versions in a structured way,
• improve data quality and plausibility,
• provide publicly comparable information for users,
• create technical foundations for future data, interface or API use.

The platform does not replace individual advice from a driving school, official information or statutory review in individual cases.

3. No binding price commitment and no driver training contract

Prices, comparison values, scenarios or total estimates displayed on the platform serve information and comparability.

A displayed comparison total is not a binding commitment, not an official final price and not an offer to conclude a training contract. The actual price of driver training may vary depending on driving school, training path, number of driving lessons, exam progress, legal requirements, external costs and individual circumstances.

Contracts for driver training are concluded exclusively between users and the respective driving school. VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) is not a party to any such training contract.

4. Registration and user account

Registration is required for certain platform features. Users must provide complete and accurate information during registration and update it when changes occur.

Access credentials must be kept confidential. Users must inform VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) without delay if there are indications of misuse of the user account.

VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) may temporarily suspend or permanently delete user accounts if there is justified suspicion of misuse, false information, unlawful content or material breaches of these terms.

5. Obligations of driving schools and commercial users

Driving schools and commercial users are responsible for ensuring that the data they enter is correct, complete, up to date and lawful.

This applies in particular to:

• name, address and contact details of the driving school,
• locations,
• licence classes offered,
• prices and price components,
• price list versions,
• additional services,
• information on external costs, where provided,
• legally relevant notices.

Users undertake not to post misleading, unlawful, xenophobic, discriminatory, offensive, copyright-infringing or otherwise impermissible content.

6. Data review and plausibility checks

The platform may perform automatic and manual checks for data quality and plausibility. These checks serve to identify obvious errors, contradictory information or incomplete data.

Such a check does not constitute legal, tax, official or professional approval. Responsibility for the accuracy and lawfulness of data remains with the respective user or driving school.

VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) may revert, withhold from publication, mark or request correction of incomplete, obviously incorrect or problematic data.

7. Publication of driving school data

Where a driving school releases data for publication or a corresponding plan provides for this, such data may be displayed publicly on fahrschuldaten.de.

Data that may be displayed publicly includes in particular:

• name of the driving school,
• location data,
• classes offered,
• price information,
• price list versions,
• general service information,
• comparison and plausibility notices,
• contact options.

VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) may design presentation, sorting, categorisation and technical preparation of data at its discretion, provided data is not misleadingly altered.

8. Plans, prices and payment terms

Free and paid plans may be offered for use of the platform. The prices and service descriptions shown in the respective order or booking process apply.

Unless stated otherwise, prices for commercial customers are plus statutory VAT.

Paid plans may in particular be billed monthly or annually. Payment is made via the payment service providers offered.

In case of payment default, VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) may temporarily suspend paid features until outstanding amounts are settled.

9. Contract term and termination

Paid plans run for the agreed contract term. Unless otherwise agreed, a paid plan automatically renews for the same term if not terminated in good time before expiry.

Termination may be made via the function provided in the user account or by email to info@fahrschuldaten.de.

The right to extraordinary termination for good cause remains unaffected.

10. Changes to features and availability

VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) endeavours to provide the platform reliably and with minimal disruption. However, uninterrupted availability at all times is not guaranteed.

The platform may be further developed, changed or temporarily restricted, in particular due to maintenance, security, technical faults, legal requirements or product improvements.

Material changes to paid services will be communicated to users in an appropriate manner.

11. Interfaces, API and automated use

Where VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) provides interfaces or API access, these may only be used within the contractually permitted scope.

The following are in particular not permitted:

• abusive scraping,
• circumvention of technical protection measures,
• excessive automated queries,
• resale of data without separate agreement,
• use of the platform to create misleading comparison offerings.

VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) may set technical limits, authentication requirements and fair use rules.

12. Rights to content and data

Users remain owners of their own content and data.

However, users grant VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) the right to store, review, technically prepare, publicly display, reproduce and use submitted data for comparison, quality and database functions within platform operations.

This grant of rights applies only to the extent necessary for operation, display, further development and contractually agreed use of the platform.

13. Email notifications and support

The platform may send transactional emails, e.g. for registration, verification, security, data quality, price list review, contract management or system use.

Email support may be offered within the scope of the respective plan. A specific response time is owed only if expressly agreed.

14. Liability

VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) is fully liable for intent and gross negligence and for injury to life, body or health.

In case of slightly negligent breach of material contractual obligations, VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) is liable only for typical, foreseeable damage. Material contractual obligations are those whose fulfilment enables proper performance of the contract and on whose compliance the user may regularly rely.

Further liability is excluded to the extent permitted by law.

15. Indemnification

Users shall indemnify VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) against third-party claims arising from unlawful, incorrect or misleading content submitted by the user, where the user is responsible for the legal violation.

This also includes reasonable costs of legal defence.

16. Privacy

Information on the processing of personal data can be found in the platform privacy policy.

17. Changes to these terms

VEHI Digital UG (haftungsbeschränkt) may amend these terms where there is a valid reason, such as changes to the platform, legal requirements or economic conditions.

Registered users will be informed in good time of material changes. If a user does not object within a reasonable period, the changes are deemed accepted, provided this was expressly stated in the notification.

18. Final provisions

The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies.

Place of jurisdiction for merchants, legal entities under public law or special funds under public law is Berlin, to the extent permitted by law.

If individual provisions of these terms are or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions remains unaffected.
