1. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

All visible and non-visible components of the Digital Properties, especially software, videos, animations, images, text, sound and graphics (collectively “Content”), as well as their arrangement, are protected under the provisions of intellectual property law, in particular by copyright. No usage rights in and to the Content are granted to you, unless expressly provided otherwise herein. All rights are reserved.

 

The Content is not permitted to be published, used, changed, duplicated, handed out, disseminated and/or made available to third parties for commercial purposes. Content may also contain content which is subject to the intellectual property rights of third parties. All trademarks in the Content are, unless otherwise expressly specified, protected by trademark, which particularly applies to PIERER Industrie AG Group’s labels, emblems, company logos or nameplates. 

 

2. LIABILITY

Even though the Digital Properties are created with utmost care, it cannot be guaranteed that the Content and information contained therein is correct and complete.

 

3. VEHICLES AND OTHER PRODUCTS

Vehicles and other products illustrated on the Digital Properties may vary in selected details from the production models and some illustrations feature optional equipment available at additional cost. All information concerning the scope of supply, appearance, services, dimensions and weights is non-binding and specified with the provison that errors, for instance in printing, setting and/or typing, may occur; such information is subject to change without notice. Please note that model specifications may vary from country to country. In the case of coated surfaces, there may be color differences due to the usual process fluctuations. The consumption values stated refer to the roadworthy series condition of the vehicles at the time of factory delivery.

 

Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) does not include Pre-delivery Inspection (PDI), titles, licensing, insurance, registration fees, destination charges, environmental charges, added accessories and installation thereof, and dealer added options or any additional dealer charges. A “Dealer” is an authorized Dealer for KTM/Husqvarna motorcycles/GasGas motorcycles, as applicable (= depending on the brand of your motorcycle).

 

4. LINKS TO THIRD-PARTY SITES AND CONTENT

The Digital Properties may include access or links to websites, apps, services and content owned or operated by third parties (“Third-Party Content”). Such Third-Party Content may have separate terms and conditions that are binding on you in case of their use. 

 

The PIERER Industrie AG Group has no control over any Third-Party Content and assumes no responsibility and expressly disclaims liability for services provided or material created or published on Third-Party Content. A link to a Third-Party Content does not imply that the PIERER Industrie AG Group endorses the site, or the products or services referenced in the Third Party Content. If you click on a link and you are directed to another website, you do so at your own risk. 

 

5. “KTM” BRAND

To the extent the term “KTM” is used in the Digital Properties, this stands for KTM AG, which, as the owner of the KTM brand, manufactures and/or distributes motorcycles and motorcycle accessories under this brand. To be distinguished from this is KTM Fahrrad GmbH, which, as the exclusive licensee, manufactures and/or sells bicycles and bicycle accessories under the KTM brand. KTM AG and KTM Fahrrad GmbH are neither affiliated with each other under corporate law nor intertwined with each other in terms of capital or otherwise. Pierer Industry Group does not produce or distribute bicycles and bicycle accessories under the KTM brand but under other brands such as Husqvarna, GASGAS or FELT.

 

B. REGISTRATION OF AN ACCOUNT 

You need to register a personal user account (the “Account”) with Pierer Industrie AG, Edisonstraße 1, 4600 Wels, Austria for using the Account, the apps as well as specific other Digital Properties which provide additional services, tools and features (such a specific website and/or app including any additional services, tools and features, each a “Service”, collectively “Services”). The respective Service is provided by the entity of the PIERER Industrie AG Group that is indicated when signing up for the Service (respectively the “Provider”).

 

An Account is not available for children under the age of 16. If you are below legal age, you must obtain the consent of your legal guardian(s).

 

Provider may offer a social login (the “Social Login”) which offers you the possibility, after the registration on one of the participating Social Login platforms (e.g. Facebook), to register the Account using single access data (i.e. without going through a separate registration and log-in process every time). After successfully registering for the Social Log In you can log into the Service with your Social Login platform access data. The respective participating Social Login platforms have their own user terms and conditions that will be made available on the respective Social Login platform and apply independently.

 

You agree to provide truthful and complete information when you register for the Account and to keep that information updated (you can change your profile data; the e-mail address you used for registration cannot be changed). You must take due care to protect your username and password against misuse by others and promptly notify Provider about any misuse. 

 

If your habitual residence is in Austria or in a state not being a member of the European Union, the terms relating to the registration and use of Your Account shall be governed by the laws of Austria, without giving effect to conflict of laws provisions, or the United Nations Convention for Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, which is explicitly excluded. If your habitual residence is in a member state of the European Union, Austrian law applies provided this stipulation is not in conflict with mandatory rules of the state in which your habitual residence is situated; such rules shall remain unaffected.

 

C. GENERAL TERMS OF USE FOR SERVICES

These general terms of use (“General Terms of Use”) govern your use of the respective Service. The Service may or may not be subject to a charge.

 

These General Terms of Use constitute a binding agreement between you and the respective Provider which operates the respective Service. 

 

1. CONTRACTUAL RELATIONSHIPS

For users in Austria and Germany: If you purchase a Service in a payable version, the contract for the purchase is entered into with Apple / Google or other available app store operators (if any). During the ordering process, you agreed to Apple’s / Google’s resp. to other app stores’ terms and conditions. Irrespective thereof, these General Terms of Use constitute a binding agreement between you and the Provider.

 

For users in USA and Australia: If you purchase a Service in a payable version, the contracts for the purchase and the General Terms of Use are both entered into with the Provider. Apple / Google act only as agent regarding the provision of this payable Service. These General Terms of Use shall enter into force upon your acceptance by using the Service and shall remain in force until terminated by you or by us in accordance with the General Terms of Use.

 

For users in all other countries: If you purchase a Service in a payable version, the contract is entered into with the entity that is indicated in the Apple / Google terms or other app store terms (if any). Irrespective thereof, these General Terms of Use constitute a binding agreement between you and the Provider.

 

For all users: the contract for the provision of any free version of a Service is always entered into with the Provider and not with Apple / Google.

 

2. KTM VEHICLES

If you are an owner of a KTM vehicle (“KTM Vehicle”), in case of any onward transfer of title of a KTM Vehicle to a third party or in case of making the respective KTM Vehicle available to a third party, you are obligated to inform such third party about any processing of personal data through Pierer Industrie AG, relating to the respective KTM Vehicle. In case of any permanent onward transfer to a third party, you are obligated to deregister your KTM Vehicle with Pierer Industrie AG. 

 

Furthermore, Pierer Industrie AG requires the data related to your KTM Vehicle in order to provide general services to your benefit (e.g. maintenance, software/firmware updates, recalls, product and service improvements).

 

3. FOR US USERS: 

BY CONTINUING USING THE SERVICES, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT (I) YOU HAVE READ AND AGREE TO THESE GENERAL TERMS OF USE ON BEHALF OF YOURSELF AND ANY OTHER OPERATORS OF YOUR MOTORCYCLE; (II) YOU ARE AT LEAST SIXTEEN (16) YEARS OF AGE (OR THE APPLICABLE AGE OF MAJORITY IN YOUR JURISDICTION); (III) YOU ARE COMPETENT TO ENTER INTO BINDING AGREEMENTS; (IV) YOU ARE NOT HINDERED FROM USING THE SERVICES UNDER APPLICABLE LAW; AND (V) YOU AGREE TO USE THE SERVICES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET OUT HEREIN. 

 

4. FOR US USERS AND AUSTRALIAN USERS:

THERE ARE ADDITIONAL CLAUSES APPLICABLE TO USERS FROM AUSTRALIA AND THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AT THE END OF THESE GENERAL TERMS OF USE.

 

5. BASIC FUNCTIONALITIES OF THE SERVICES AND ADDITIONAL FEATURES, SEPARATE EVENT TERMS

Provider may offer additional software, content or services (“Features”) that may or may not be subject to a charge. There are additional terms of use for each Feature (“Feature Terms of Use”, see below) which additionally constitute a binding agreement between you and the respective Provider. In the event of a conflict between these General Terms of Use and any Feature Terms of Use, the terms of the respective Feature Terms of Use shall prevail. 

 

The General Terms of Use together with the Feature Terms of Use, constitute the entire agreement (the “Service Terms”) between you and Provider regarding the Service and its Features.

 

Please see the Provider’s Privacy Policy for further detail how we process your personal and non-personal data.

 

Please note that there might be further age limits for Features (see respective Feature Terms of Use).

 

Our Apps (“App”) may be used on Android and iOS devices and is available for download in both the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store. 

 

With regard to events (each an “Event”) bookable on a specific Service, separate Event terms (the “Event Terms”, see below) apply with the legal entity that is indicated in these Event Terms acting as your contractual partner regarding your participation in the Event. For the avoidance of doubt, the Service Terms of the Provider remain unaffected.

 

6. ORDERING PAYABLE FEATURES AND PAYMENT TERMS FOR APP FEATURES

Every payable App Feature is at least available via the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. The costs for the Feature, subscription terms, subscription period, trial offers and payment methods are agreed upon directly in the Apple App Store / Google Play Store or other app stores, as applicable. Please refer to the terms set out in the Apple App Store/ Google Play Store, as applicable.

 

7. TERMINATION OF SERVICES AND/OR FEATURES

The contract for the use of any free Services and free version of Features continues for an indefinite period of time, unless terminated by Provider or by you as set out below.

 

If you have purchased a payable subscription respectively paid for a Service or Feature, the subscription terms and termination terms were agreed upon separately during the ordering process in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, as applicable. 

 

You can terminate the contract for the use of the Services and/or the Features at any time by deleting your Account. You can also terminate the contract for the use of the Services and/or the Features (except for the subscription terms) via e-mail at any time, using the contact details provided in the Services and/or the Features. 

 

If you want to use the Service but do not want to use a Feature anymore, you can stop using the Feature at any time, but it will still be available once you have activated it.

 

If you delete the Account and therefore terminate the contract for the use of the Services or if the Account is deleted because of your termination of the contract for the use of the Services via e-mail or regular mail, you may be required to terminate payable Features separately. For termination of payable Services or Features please also refer to the terms from your Order in the Apple App Store / Google Play Store (or other applicable app store). 

 

Provider may terminate the contract for free Services and/or any free Feature with two weeks’ notice. Notice of termination for a one-time-payment version of a Service or Feature may be given for the first time at the end of the third month from activation of such Feature. Such termination by Provider does not affect your Account and you will still be able to sign in to every web-application where your Account can be used for signing in, unless these contracts are terminated, too.

 

For termination by Provider or you: As long as there is still an active Feature (e.g. due to notice periods of payable Features), the Services will be accessible as usual, until the effective date of termination of the respective Feature. 

 

After the effective date of termination of all Features, you will no longer have access to any Features. This includes any data, content or information that you upload or insert into the Services and/or Features (“Material”) you submitted to the Services and the respective Features. 

 

8. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND LICENSE

The Services, including any and all visible and non-visible components of the Services, especially videos, animations, images, texts, sound, and graphics, as well as their arrangement, are protected under the provisions of intellectual property law, in particular by copyright and trade secret. Provider reserves and shall retain ownership of any and all rights in and to the Services and any trademarks, logos, copyrights, patents, and other intellectual property rights used in connection with the Services and Features, unless otherwise explicitly set forth in these General Terms of Use. All trademarks in the Services are, unless otherwise expressly specified, protected by trademark, which particularly applies to Provider’s labels, emblems, company logos or nameplates. Nothing in these General Terms of Use shall be construed as a transfer or grant of any intellectual property rights (i) in and to the Services or (ii) otherwise held or controlled by us, our affiliates or third parties engaged by us, except in respect of the limited right to use such intellectual property rights as explicitly set out herein.

 

Provider grants you a royalty-free, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right and license to install, access and use the Services and related software and content on your computer and/or mobile device, solely for your own personal, non-commercial purposes during the term of the contract for the Services and strictly in accordance with the Service Terms. All other rights are expressly reserved by Provider.

 

You may not copy, modify or reverse engineer any part of the Services (including its software), except to make backup or volatile copies as far as necessary for the use of the Services.

Provider is only transmitting the Material and is not responsible for editorial control over it. You are solely responsible for all Material posted by you. 

 

You are solely responsible for taking backup copies of the Material you store in the Services and any Feature. Provider has no obligation to return Material to you after the effective date of termination of the contract for any Service or Feature.

The following rules of conduct apply to the use of any Service and Feature:

 

You agree to:

 

• Comply with the Service Terms and good manners; 
• Not use any Service or Feature in any unlawful manner or in a way that conflicts with applicable laws or regulations (including but not limited to laws on intellectual property and traffic regulations); for any unlawful or criminal purpose; in any manner inconsistent with the Service Terms; or in any manner that creates damage or inconvenience to any third party;

• Obtain any consents, permission or licenses that may be legally required for you to submit any Material;

• Not distribute or post spam, chain letters, pyramid schemes, viruses; 
• Not use any Service or Feature in a way that could damage, disable, overburden, impair or compromise any Service or Feature, Provider’s systems or security, interfere with other users of any Service or Feature, or restrict or inhibit any other users from using any Service or Feature (including by hacking or defacing any Service or Feature);
• Not use any other technologies or initiate other activities on purpose that may harm any Service or Feature, or the interest or property of any Service or Feature users;
• Not use any automated systems or means to access, acquire, copy or monitor any part of any Service or Feature, except the means provided by Provider and Apple/Google;

10. YOUR RESPONSIBILITY / RESTRICTION OF USE

In case of culpable acts of infringement, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Provider from and against all third-party claims, damages, expenses, losses, and liabilities resulting from or arising out of 

• your culpable breach of the Service Terms; 
• your infringement or violation of any intellectual property rights, other rights or privacy of a third party; or 
• misuse of any Service or Feature by a third party where the misuse was made possible by your failure to take reasonable measures to protect your username and password against misuse.

 

If there is evidence that you have violated the Service Terms, Provider reserves the right to take the following steps, depending on the gravity of the infringement: 

• send you a warning;
• temporarily suspend your Account;
• permanently block your Account; 
• restrict your access to certain areas of the Service or the respective Feature in case of breach of Feature Terms of Use; or
• after sending you a warning first, terminate the Service and Account.

 

11. SOCIAL ACTIVITIES AND LOCATION SHARING

You may use the Services to share your location, status, content, Material or personal information or to interact with other users, sites and services. For the use of these functionalities, you agree that according to your instructions Provider may use and provide that information to other services and persons with whom you choose to interact or share this information. Users of these services and persons, such as your contacts, may see your location, status and/or personal information.

 

12. MODIFICATIONS OF ANY SERVICE OR FEATURE

Provider may modify any Service or Feature under the following conditions:

• Provider will take into account your interests and inform you about the planned modification in a clear and understandable way;
• you will have no additional costs, even if the modification causes an upgrade of any Service or Feature; and
• the amendment is reasonable and necessary due to a valid reason, such as (i) changes in laws that are applicable to any Service or Feature, (ii) problems with the Service’s or a Feature’s security (e.g. security-related issues on codebase), (iii) where a modification is necessary to adapt any Service or Feature to a new technical environment, an increased number of users or (iv) where the modification is necessary for other important operational reasons. 

 

If the planned modification means not just a minor negative impact of your access or use of any Service or Feature, you will be informed on a durable medium and within reasonable time before the modification is made. This information will include characteristics and time of the modification and the possibility of free of charge termination of the contract or the possibility of unchanged continuation. When a modification of any Service or Feature impacts, in more than a minor manner, your access or use of any Service or Feature, you have the right to terminate the contract for any Service or Feature free of charge. You have to exercise this right within 30 days from the modification or, if the information about your right to terminate the contract is delivered after the modification, within 30 days from this information. 

 

The right to terminate the contract for the Service as stated in section “Termination” remains unaffected. 

 

Alternatively, Provider can decide to enable you to maintain access to any Service or Feature at no additional cost, without the modification and in conformity with the contract, in which case you shall not be entitled to terminate the contract. 

 

13. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR ANY SERVICE OR FEATURE

Provider shall be liable within the scope of the statutory provisions, irrespective of the legal grounds (pre-contractual, contractual, non-contractual), insofar as the cause of the damage is based on an intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty by us or one of our legal representatives or vicarious agents.

 

Furthermore, Provider is liable for the slightly negligent breach of essential obligations. Essential obligations are those whose breach jeopardises the achievement of the purpose of the contract and whose fulfilment makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on whose compliance you regularly rely.

 

The above limitations of liability do not apply in the event of injury to life, limb or health and contractual guarantees. 

 

Provider is not responsible for accidents that occur during the use of any Service or Feature through no fault of Provider. Each driver must assess for themselves whether the analysis and recommendation of any Service or Feature is compatible with their driving skills and knowledge. Provider is not liable for whatsoever damage that occurs as a result of your own misjudgement or miscalculation concerning the use/interpretation of any Service’s and/or Feature’s analysis and/or recommendation.

 

14. CONSUMER ARBITRATION AND ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION

There are the following dispute resolution platforms relevant to Provider: 

• European Commission platform for online dispute resolution (ODR platform) for consumers: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/; 
• Consumer Arbitration Austria: https://www.verbraucherschlichtung.at/verfahren/
• Internet Ombudsman: https://www.ombudsstelle.at/

 

Provider is not willing and not legally obliged to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration platform.

 

15. CHANGES IN THE SERVICE TERMS

Provider can change the Service Terms if the change is reasonable for you after a comprehensive consideration of interests and as far as material provisions are not affected by this. Provider will inform you of the changes of the Service Terms four (4) weeks before the changes shall enter into force. This information will include the notice period of four weeks, the changes and the consequences of not reacting in text form (email) to our notice as described below.

 

The consequences are: If you do not object to the changes during these four weeks, they will enter into force at the end of the fourth week. If you object the changes in text form (email), this means of the contract for the use of the Service and any Feature activated or purchased by you will be terminated by the end of the fourth week. You therefore will not be able to access or use any Service or Feature or Material submitted to any Service or Feature after the fourth week. Any payment obligations resulting from a minimum duration of a payable Feature or a subscription to a payable Feature remain unaffected.

 

16. VALIDITY

If a provision of the Service Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, the remaining provisions will not be affected and will continue in full force and effect and the invalid provision will be replaced with a valid provision that comes closest to the result and purpose of the Service Terms. In the event one or more provisions of these Service Terms are not relevant to your use of the Service, it shall not impact the validity or enforceability of any other provision of the Service Terms or the Service Terms as a whole. 

 

17. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

The Service Terms constitute the entire agreement between Provider and you regarding the use of the respective Service and any Feature and supersede in their entirety all written or oral agreements between Provider and you with respect to such subject matter.

 

18. ASSIGNMENT

Additionally, Provider may assign its rights and obligations under these Service Terms to a third party in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, by operation of law or otherwise.

 

19. GOVERNING LAW / JURISDICTION

If your habitual residence is in Austria or in a state not being a member of the European Union, the Service Terms shall be governed by the laws of Austria, without giving effect to conflict of laws provisions, or the United Nations Convention for Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, which is explicitly excluded.

If your habitual residence is in a member state of the European Union, Austrian law applies provided this stipulation is not in conflict with mandatory rules of the state in which your habitual residence is situated. Such rules shall remain unaffected.

 

20. ADDITIONAL TERMS FOR APPLE USERS

If you download the Service or install/activate a Feature via the Apple App Store, these “Additional Terms for Apple Users” shall apply and govern your use of the Service and such Feature. 

• Acknowledgement: You and Provider acknowledge that the Service Terms are concluded between you and Provider only, and not with Apple.

In the event of any failure of the Service or any Feature to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the Service or Feature to you; to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the Service and any Feature. Any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be Provider’s sole responsibility. 
• Product Claims: You and Provider acknowledge that Provider, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims of you or any third party relating to the Service or any Feature or your possession and/or use of the Service or any Feature, including, but not limited to (i) product liability claims, (ii) any claim that the licensed or custom application fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar legislation, including in connection with the Service’s or any Feature’s use of the HealthKit and HomeKit frameworks. 
• Intellectual Property Rights: You and Provider acknowledge that, in the event of any third-party claim, the Service or any Feature or your possession and use of the Service or any Feature infringe that third party’s intellectual property rights, Provider, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim. 
• Legal Compliance: You represent and warrant that (i) you are not located in a region that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” region; and (ii) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. 
• Third Party Terms of Agreement: You must comply with applicable third-party terms of the Service Terms when using the Service or any Feature. 
• Third Party Beneficiary: You and Provider acknowledge and agree that Apple, and Apple’s subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of the Service Terms, and that, upon your acceptance of the Service Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce the Service Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.

• Key Service: In the event of a lost / stolen / broken key, delivery of a replacement key to the rider (shipping costs included) – if deemed as the most suitable solution by the Assistance Centre – or to a Dealer will be arranged.

• Further Travel: If repair of the motorcycle is not possible on the same day of towing to the Dealer, the Assistance Centre will cover the cost of travel (for a maximum of 2 people) from the place of the Breakdown to the next planned destination of your trip (= destination) or to the home of the authorised driver.

   If it is not possible for the rider to collect the motorcycle from the Dealer, a transport or the motorcycle to the home address can be arranged. In this case, however, the Assistance Centre will also only reimburse the costs that would have been incurred if the rider had travelled independently to collect the vehicle at the Dealer.
