General Software Maintenance and Software Service Conditions (ASSB) Version 1.3, 2018

 

§ 1 SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CONTRACT

 

celsius37.com AG (hereinafter referred to as c37) shall provide the services specified in § 2 for the software products supplied by c37, provided that an agreement for software maintenance and software service exists for these or these services have been ordered by the customer.

 

§ 2 SCOPE OF SERVICES

 

1. c37 supports the operational readiness of the software products used at the customer's site, taking into account §1 para. The operational readiness is given when the functionalities of the software products provided by c37 are fulfilled. c37 will analyze suspected or verifiable program errors of the software products, which are communicated by the customer in writing, to determine whether the malfunction is due to a hardware or software defect. Notification by e-mail is also sufficient for the written form. In case of a malfunction of the software products delivered by c37, c37 shall, at its discretion, provide the customer with the following within a reasonable period of time - after consultation with the customer - by remote data transmission: Individual corrections (patches), setting changes or a bug-corrected change status of the delivered software products and / or in the user documentation. Error correction includes error analysis, delimitation of the cause of the error with the cooperation of the customer and - if error correction is not possible with reasonable effort or for time reasons - error workaround. An unreasonable effort exists if the error can only be eliminated by reprogramming essential parts of the software modules delivered by c37. If the elimination of the defect via the software service (hotline) is not possible or not sufficient, c37 will inform the customer about this and make further suggestions for the elimination of the defect. The customer shall provide remote access free of charge for remote maintenance.

 

2. Within the scope of the agreed software maintenance, c37 provides the customer with services such as updates, releases, information about innovations and changes within the scope of the updates/releases as well as information about the installation of the updates/releases concerning the sold standard modules, without obligation regarding the frequency and scope, as well as without obligation regarding any adjustments to the system. The import (installation) of the updates/releases provided by c37 is not part of the services according to §2 and can be carried out by the customer or by c37 after commissioning.

 

3. c37 maintains a hotline service to support the customer. The hotline service includes the support of the customer in solving problems with the software products delivered by c37, as well as the upstream analysis by means of remote maintenance.

Monday to Friday [holidays excluded] from 08:00 to 17:00.
