Some names, instruments, treatments, logos, designs etc referred to on the Sites are protected by patents, trademarks, or other intellectual property rights even though specific reference to this fact is not made on the Sites.

7. User data license

In the course of visiting the Sites, the User may upload User Material, or submitt User Material to PRO-IMPLANT in electronic form through other channels. As between the Parties, the User shall remain the sole owner of all User Material, provided however that the User hereby grants to PRO-IMPLANT a worldwide, eternal, unlimited, non-revocable, and non-redeemable license to use, copy, distribute, display, disclose, and perform such User Material or parts of the User Material, to create derivative works thereof, and to sublicense such rights for any and all purposes. User shall have sole responsibility for the accuracy, quality, integrity, legality, reliability, appropriateness, and intellectual property ownership or right to use all User Material, and PRO-IMPLANT shall not be responsible or liable for the deletion, accuracy, correction, disclosure, destruction, damage, loss or failure to store any User Material. For the avoidance of any doubt, the license granted by the User to PRO-IMPLANT shall remain valid even if this Agreement is terminated for whatever reason.
Any User Material shall be de-personalized by the User before submitted to PRO-IMPLANT. The User acknowledges that he has the sole responsibility that any and all User Material is fully de-personalized.

If PRO-IMPLANT exploits the User Material, it will name the respective User to the extent reasonably possible. PRO-IMPLANT is, however, not obliged to pay to the User a royalty or other financial compensation for such exploitation.

 

 

 

If the User does not comply with these GTC, PRO-IMPLANT has the right to prevent the User from visiting the Sites and using the services connected therewith, and PRO-IMPLANT reserves the right to any legal action PRO-IMPLANT thinks is appropriate.
If, based on a written agreement between the User and PRO-IMPLANT, the User is entitled to provide access the Sites to third persons, the User represents that all such third persons using the Sites are contractually bound by these terms, conditions and disclaimers as well.
The User agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless PRO-IMPLANT, to the fullest extent permitted by law, against any cause of action, all liabilities, losses, costs or expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel) with respect to any claim by third parties arising out of the User’s failure to perform its obligations under the Agreement.

 

11. No right to visit the Sites and modification of the Sites

Unless expressly stated in this or another written agreement between the Parties, PRO-IMPLANT has no legal duty to the User, and may at any time and without giving grounds prevent the User from visiting the Sites and using the services connected therewith.
PRO-IMPLANT is entitled without prior notice to the User in its free discretion

  • to shut down the Sites temporarily or permanently at any time
  • to remove any and all content on the Sites
  • to modify the Sites and the services connected therewith.

 

12. Termination of the Agreement

Each Party may terminate this Agreement with immediate effect by email at any time.
Upon termination of the Agreement, the User shall not have access to the Sites anymore without restriction. The user data licence according to Article 7 above shall under no circumstances be terminated due to the termination of this Agreement.

 

13. Force majeure

No Party shall be liable to the other if performance of any of its obligations hereunder is prevented, hindered, or delayed by the occurrence of circumstances beyond its control, which circumstances shall include, but shall not be limited to, any act of God, act of any government or other statutory undertaking, industrial dispute beyond the area of control of such Party, fire, explosion, accident, cyber attack and power failure, always provided (i) they constitute a force majeure event, ie, are beyond the control of the Party invoking it, and (ii) they are not the result of the failure of such Party to perform any of its obligations under the Agreement.
Following the occurrence of any such event the Party thereby affected shall notify the other Party in due time of such occurrence and such Party shall use its reasonable endeavours to overcome or to minimise the adverse effects thereof.
Performance of the affected and related obligations shall be postponed for a period equal to the time lost by reason of the delay. If as a result of force majeure a Party is rendered definitely unable to perform, or if the period of force majeure has lasted longer than three months or as soon as it is reasonably clear that it will last longer than three months, the other Party may, with immediate effect, terminate the Agreement in writing.

 

14. Modification of the Agreement

PRO-IMPLANT reserves the right to modify the Agreement at any time, if it will become necessary by changing law, prevailing case law, market forces or comparable reasons. The User agrees to review the current version of this Agreement, to be aware of any such modifications. If the User does not object to the applicability of the revised Agreement within 20 days after receipt of said notice, the modified Agreement shall be deemed to be accepted by the User. If the User does not agree to any change in the GTC, the Agreement shall be terminated automatically.

 

15. Miscellaneous

The User shall not assign any rights and obligations under this Agreement without PRO-IMPLANT’s prior written consent.
The Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of the Agreement.
Failure or neglect by PRO-IMPLANT to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not be construed or deemed to be a waiver of PRO-IMPLANT’s rights nor shall this affect the validity of the whole or any part of this Agreement, nor prejudice PRO-IMPLANT’s rights to take subsequent action.
Should any provision of this agreement be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall be valid. In the place of an invalid provision, a valid provision is presumed to be agreed upon by the Parties, which comes economically closest to the one actually agreed upon.
This Agreement is solely governed by substantive German law, regardless of where the person visiting one or several Sites resides or where this person made his submission, posting, transaction or connection with one or several Sites.
All disputes arising out of this Agreement or in connection with this Agreement shall be solely and finally settled by a court of arbitration consisting of one arbitrator in accordance with the German Rules of International Arbitration or the German BGB. The place of arbitration shall be Berlin, Germany. The court of arbitration shall conduct the proceedings and all awards shall be rendered in the German language.

Recommended Web Browsers

PRO-IMPLANT has designed Sites to work with most web browsers. We recommend that you always use the most up-to-date browsers, compatible with your operating system. If you use older browsers, you might notice that some functions and features stop working as we make upgrades to Sites.

  • Microsoft Edge (latest version)
  • Safari (latest version, Mac only)

Note: Due to the rapid release cycles for certain browsers, there is a greater chance that compatibility issues with Sites can occur. If a new browser update introduces an issue, please report it to PRO-IMPLANT. In many cases, simply switching to another browser can resolve most issues.

Browsers we don’t support include:

  • Netscape
