General Terms and Conditions
Last updated: March 2026
1. Scope and Contracting Party
These terms of use apply to the use of the "JetztAngeln" app and platform. The contracting party is JetztAngeln UG (haftungsbeschränkt), Birnbaumweg 9, 37176 Nörten-Hardenberg (hereinafter "Provider" or "we"). The app is aimed both at fishing clubs (hereinafter "Clubs" or "B2B customers") for managing their members, and at private anglers (hereinafter "Users" or "Consumers") for purchasing guest permits and using community features.
2. Service Description and Registration
2.1 Basic use of the app for private users is free of charge. Users can create profiles, log catches, interact with others, and purchase digital permits (day/guest tickets) for connected waters.
2.2 Clubs acquire paid usage licenses to use the app as management and distribution software for their members. No direct paid contract for software usage is established between the Provider and individual club members; licensing is handled through the club.
2.3 Users are required to provide truthful information during registration. Identity fraud or uploading forged documents (e.g. fishing license) will result in immediate suspension.
3. Costs, Terms and Cancellation for Clubs (B2B)
3.1 Clubs receive a free 30-day trial period. During this period, either party may terminate the contract without notice. Payment is due upon contract conclusion but will be fully refunded if cancelled within the 30-day trial period.
3.2 App usage is billed to the club in packages (fixed amount per 50 users/year).
3.3 The regular contract term for clubs is one (1) year. The contract automatically renews for another year unless terminated with three (3) months' notice before the end of the respective term.
3.4 The club is obliged to provide all provider, tax, register, and payment data required for tax reporting obligations under PStTG/DAC7 completely, accurately, and up to date. Changes must be updated without undue delay in the admin dashboard or communicated to the Provider.
4. Purchase of Digital Permits (Guest Tickets / B2C)
4.1 Registered users can purchase digital permits (day or guest tickets) from participating clubs within the app.
4.2 Cancellation and Refund: A voluntary cancellation and refund of the purchase price by us is possible up to 24 hours before the official start of the guest ticket's validity.
4.3 Refund Exclusion: Once the validity period of the ticket has begun or the ticket has been used in any way within the app (e.g. fishing day started, catches logged), any refund is excluded.
4.4 Note on statutory right of withdrawal for consumers: The right of withdrawal for digital content and services expires prematurely if we have begun executing the contract (providing the valid digital guest ticket) after you have expressly agreed that we begin execution before the expiry of the withdrawal period and you have confirmed your awareness that by giving your consent you lose your right of withdrawal upon commencement of execution.
5. User Generated Content and Code of Conduct
5.1 Users can upload their own content within the app (e.g. catch photos, forum posts, profile pictures, comments). The user grants the Provider a simple, spatially and temporally unlimited right to display this content within the app.
5.2 It is strictly prohibited to publish illegal, pornographic, sexually explicit (NSFW), offensive, racist, or otherwise objectionable content.
5.3 The Provider expressly reserves the right to delete content at any time, without prior notice and at its own discretion, and to temporarily or permanently suspend corresponding user accounts in the event of violations. Users can report inappropriate content via an in-app function.
6. Limitation of Liability
6.1 The Provider is liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence as well as for damages resulting from injury to life, body, or health.
6.2 For slight negligence, the Provider is only liable in the event of a breach of a material contractual obligation (cardinal obligation), limited to the foreseeable, contract-typical damage.
6.3 Disclaimer for third-party and user content: The Provider assumes no liability for the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of information provided by clubs or users. This applies in particular, but not exclusively, to:
- Documents uploaded by users (e.g. validity of fishing licenses)
- Water boundaries, closed seasons, minimum sizes, or catch limits set by clubs
- Provided addresses and phone numbers
- Fraud attempts by users among themselves or against the club
7. Special Provisions for App Stores (Apple & Google)
These terms constitute an agreement between you and us, not with Apple Inc. or Google LLC. We alone, not Apple or Google, are responsible for the app and its content. Apple and Google have no obligation to provide any maintenance and support services with respect to the app.
8. Final Provisions
8.1 The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies. For consumers, this choice of law only applies insofar as it does not deprive mandatory legal provisions of the state in which the consumer is domiciled.
8.2 If the customer is a merchant (club as a legal entity), the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract is Göttingen.
