Consequently, each natural-person Customer, Participant, User and its representative shall, by having assumed the respective role (explicitly or by performing any act identifying him as the respective party), be deemed to have represented to the Supplier that he is, and, in the Representative's case, that both he and the Customer are, at least 18 years old and capable of entering into contracts. The same representation is deemed to be made each time that the respective person causes himself (and, in the Representative's case, when he causes the Customer) to be exposed to the Service.

6.3. The Customer must comply and shall cause each User to comply with all legal requirements applicable to their use of the Service, processing of Customer Data and other activities hereunder (including export control provisions and requirements as to the handling of Personal Data).

6.5. Any Customer Data that conflicts with the provisions of this Agreement may be removed, disabled and/or destroyed by the Supplier at its sole discretion.

6.6. Each Customer, Participant, User and anyone else who performs any of the acts mentioned in the opening paragraph of this Agreement undertakes that he will not:

(a) interfere with the proper functioning of the Service;

(b) impose an unreasonable load on the Service or its infrastructure;

(c) reproduce the Software, except as expressly permitted herein;

(d) translate, adapt, arrange or otherwise alter the Software or reproduce the results of any such activity;

(e) distribute or redistribute, including sell, rent, lease, lend or otherwise make available, the Software (neither the original Software nor any copy thereof) or any other part of the Service; (f) decompile, disassemble or otherwise reverse engineer the Software;

(g) remove, alter, hide or obscure any copyright notice, trademark or other proprietary rights notice embedded in, appearing on or otherwise pertaining to any part of the Service;

The Representative agrees, that if the Customer does not conform to the description of section 6.1 or if this Agreement proves to be void due to the Representative's lack of authority, he shall, if the Supplier (in its absolute discretion) so chooses and respectively informs the Representative, be deemed to have entered into the Agreement on his own behalf (i.e., in place of the Customer whom he represented or purported to represent).

8. User Account

8.1.

8.4. The Supplier has no obligation to monitor or access any User Account, but may do so in cases where such action is reasonably justified (e.g., in order to prevent illegal or harmful activity, provide customer support, perform its duties hereunder or comply with legal requirements).

8.5. The Supplier may, in its sole discretion, disable, close or restrict access to any User Account that is used to infringe on anyone's Intellectual Property or proprietary or personal rights.

10.2. Neither Party shall be liable for breaching its obligations due to a circumstance it reasonably could not have foreseen and which is beyond its control, such as, e.g., a force of nature, conduct of public authorities, war, civil unrest, act of terror, strike, pandemic, power outage, internet failure or any other circumstance qualifying as force majeure under the applicable law, to the extent that the respective circumstance prevented or hindered the Party's performance. For the avoidance of doubt, this section:

(a) is not intended to derogate from or limit the ambit of any statutory limitation or exclusion of liability;

12.3. The Customer warrants to the Supplier that he will properly execute his data processor's duties under the Privacy Policy and all his statutory obligations as the processor of Participants' Personal Data.
