3.3 Contract Language
The language of the contract is German.
4. Prices and Payment

4.3 Due Date
For subscriptions, payment is due at the beginning of each billing period. For lifetime licenses and class licenses, payment is due immediately upon signing the contract.

5. Subscription and Cancellation
5.1 Term and Renewal
- Monthly Subscription: Runs on a monthly basis. Automatically renews for an additional month unless canceled in a timely manner.
- Annual Subscription: Runs for 12 months. Automatically renews for another 12 months unless canceled in a timely manner.

After the paid period expires, the full version will be downgraded to the freemium version. User data will be retained.
5.3 Termination by the Provider
The provider may terminate the subscription with 30 days’ notice effective at the end of the month, particularly if a user violates these Terms and Conditions or applicable law. In the event of extraordinary termination by the provider, the prorated amount for the unused period will be refunded.

6. Right of Withdrawal
6.1 Right of Withdrawal for Consumers
Consumers (natural persons who enter into the contract for a purpose that is predominantly neither commercial nor related to their self-employed professional activity) generally have a right of withdrawal of 14 days from the conclusion of the contract.
6.2 Expiration of the Right of Withdrawal for Digital Content
The right of withdrawal expires prematurely if, at the time of purchase, the user expressly agreed that delivery of the digital content would begin immediately upon conclusion of the contract and confirmed their awareness that they would thereby lose their right of withdrawal (Section 356(5) of the German Civil Code (BGB)).
This consent is obtained via a checkbox during the ordering process.

All content on the app and website—in particular texts, exercises, graphics, source code, and database structures—is protected by copyright and remains the property of the provider.
