Introduction

The software provided by Accounda enables a fast and secure integration of a centralized login system for websites and applications that meets modern security standards. The software supports flexible and convenient login via Google, Microsoft and other providers.

The login system combines high security through MFA with user-friendliness of Open Authorization (OAuth2). End users benefit from centralized account management via the dashboard and a login process for websites and applications that does not require the creation of multiple accounts. Developers can easily integrate the comprehensive login system using clear APIs and detailed documentation. This creates a modern, secure and flexible login experience.

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) ensures the protection of user accounts. This initially includes the verification of identity by means of e-mail confirmations. Moreover, authenticator apps (such as Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator) can be connected for additional security. These generate time-limited one-time passwords (OTPs) that provide a high level of security while being easy to use.

Applicability of the General Terms and Conditions (GTC)

The following terms and conditions shall apply to all services provided by the Contractor under this contract through the software systems provided. The Client's terms and conditions of purchase are hereby excluded for the legal transaction in question and the entire business relationship. Offers are always subject to change.

Unless expressly agreed otherwise, our GTC notified to the contractual partner shall apply. Our contractual partner agrees that in the event of the use of GTC on his part, our terms and conditions must be assumed in case of doubt, even if the contractual partner's conditions remain uncontradicted. In this respect, acts of contract fulfillment on our part shall not be deemed to be acceptance of contractual terms that deviate from our conditions.

Services provided and general terms of use

Accounda provides free services and services as part of subscriptions. In this context, a distinction is made between two user groups:

(a)    "App Owners": Are providers of applications such as websites, programs, etc. After creating an account (free of charge) as part of our free services, app owners can (i) create "Apps" (= reference to applications) and (ii) test authorization locally, on their own computer.
Paid subscriptions allow the app owner to publish the apps. This enables authorization for end users via our centralized login system.

(b)    "End Users": After creating an account (free of charge), End Users can use our free services as a central login system. To do this, end users can authorize apps in order to log in to the app owner's applications flexibly and conveniently via Google, Microsoft and other providers, among others.

The use of free services is only permitted for app-owners and end users in the context of their business activities or for private purposes. Subscribers may use the subscription service during the subscription period solely for their business or private purposes. The functionalities of the subscription can be found on our website.

The free service is activated when an account is opened. If a subscription with functionalities that go beyond the free services is chosen, the activation is made by paying for the selected subscription.

You take note that our services are not designed to store or process protected information in any way, and therefore no special protection is provided with respect to transmitted data. You further acknowledge that if you transmit protected information, you do so at your own risk and that no liability (damages) may arise for Accounda from such transmission.

Support

Accounda provides technical support for the Services. You can contact our online support at accounda.com/dashboard/support/. You can submit support requests at any time via the link above. We will answer your request as soon as possible.

Accounda provides updates to the Services automatically. The maintenance tasks required for this purpose (except for urgent updates) are carried out outside of peak periods of use, to minimise the impact on users.

 

Subscription

Prices

The services under a paid subscription are accessible in the form of a monthly or annual subscription. The prices for Accounda's services are stated on our website. All prices on our website are quoted in euros including VAT (Austrian VAT: 20%). When you sign the contract, you will receive an invoice in which the VAT/VAT rate is explicitly stated in addition to the gross price.

Accounda may change the prices for renewal periods upon written notice. If you do not accept the price change, you may waive the use of your paid account in accordance with the „Cancellation of Subscription“ section.

Subscription Period

By subscribing, you sign up for a tariff with recurring payments. After each subscription period, your subscription service will automatically renew with the current products, for the same time period (one month if you have opted for a monthly plan, or one year if you have opted for an annual plan).

The "subscription period" begins with payment of the fee and ends after one month or year. The subscription is renewed on the last day of the subscription period. Where required by law, Accounda will inform you in advance of the automatic renewal of your subscription.

You authorize Accounda to charge you the price applicable to your paid subscription at the beginning of each new subscription period and to charge you through the payment method provided (via Stripe). You agree to promptly notify Accounda in writing of any changes to your billing information during the period of a subscription.

In the event that the agreed payment method fails, we will inform you of this. In this case, the service will be switched to the status of a "free service". Your data will be preserved completely, but access (by the end user) to your applications (through the use of apps) will no longer be possible. When you contract a new subscription, the services can be used again completely.

Cancellation of Subscription

Subscriber may cancel the subscription at any time prior to the end of the current subscription period. After canceling, you can use all the features of your subscription until the end of the current subscription period.

It is agreed that all necessary costs incurred from preceding mediation, in particular also expenses for any legal advisors employed, can be claimed agreed in court or arbitration proceedings as "pre-litigation costs".

Final provisions

Non-compliance with essential parts of the contract shall entitle the contracting parties to prematurely terminate the contract without notice.

Should one or more provisions of the contract be or become invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by a valid provision that comes as close as possible to the economic purpose of the invalid or unenforceable clause.

The Contractor (Accounda) shall be entitled to use third parties in whole or in part to fulfill its obligations.

The terms of these „General Terms and Conditions“ are effective as of the date set out below.
