When calculating the availability, times during which the SILVRR App cannot be accessed due to technical or other problems that are not within the sphere of influence of SILVRR [force majeure, fault of third parties (who are not vicarious agents), causes within the sphere of influence of the User (e.g. hardware faults), etc.] are also not included.

SILVRR shall be entitled to make changes to the IT systems used to provide SILVRR App and to the technical functionalities of the SILVRR App at any time if and insofar as this is necessary for a valid reason that was not foreseeable at the time this Contract was concluded and the change is reasonable for the User.

Essential provisions are those concerning the type and scope of the contractually agreed services and the term including the provisions on termination. Furthermore, the SILVRR Terms of Use may be amended if this is necessary to eliminate not insignificant difficulties in the performance of this Contract due to contractual loopholes that have arisen after the conclusion of this Contract. This may be the case in particular, if the case law on the effectiveness of provisions of these Terms of Use changes, if one or more provisions of these Terms of Use are declared invalid by the case law or if a change in the law leads to the invalidity of one or more provisions of these Terms of Use and/or in case changes are required due to legal requirements.

The User’s consent shall be deemed to be granted if the User has not indicated his or her refusal, at the latest, one month before their proposed effective date. SILVRR will in its notification about the offering of the amendment separately inform the User of this approval effect and his or her right to reject.
