Terms of Service: Upload Robots renders file hosting services for its users based on the following provisions.
1. Upload Robots provides its users with an infrastructure which enables the users to save any files on Internet servers. After the saving process the respective user receives a download link with which his/her file can be downloaded worldwide via the Internet as well as a deletion link with which the file he/she has uploaded can again be deleted from the server.
2. The files saved at Upload Robots shall be treated confidentially. Upload Robots does not have a search function which could help search through the Upload Robots infrastructure. Upload Robots does not open or view its users files; the files are neither catalogued nor listed in directories.
3. The services offered by Upload Robots are basically free of charge. However, Upload Robots offers premium memberships which significantly increase the service capability and ease of use which are subject to costs.
1. Basically, users may save any file at Upload Robots irrespective of the file format or of the file contents. Excluded, however, are files the possession and/or circulation of which is illegal, such as:
i. child pornography content
ii. works the download of which violates third party copyrights
iii. racist or violence-glorifying works
iv. instructions to criminal offences against public peace
This list is not conclusive.
2. Upload Robots will block access to such contents immediately after obtaining knowledge thereof and will delete them after an examination phase of 14 days. Furthermore, it will delete files which are identical to previously deleted files.
3. With regard to users who violate these upload regulations, Upload Robots is entitled to terminate the contractual relationship without notice , to block the access of the respective users to its services and/or to delete accounts of such users including all contents.
1. Upload Robots provides its free users with line and memory capacity at its sole discretion. It is entitled to temporarily disallow the saving of new files, to determine limitations regarding the maximum possible file size, to have the download of files only started after a waiting period, to adapt the rate of transmission to the visitor traffic and to limit the amount of the maximum permissible downloads
1. Upload Robots will provide the functions stated under section I. (1), in principle, 24 hours a day and seven days a week, however, only with a guaranteed availability rate of 99.5% as a monthly average. Excluded hereof are time periods in which the servers are not accessible via the Internet due to technical or other problems which are not within Upload Robots's control (third party fault, force majeure, etc.)
2. Upload Robots strives to organise maintenance work as quickly as possible. Upload Robots will limit the access to its service temporarily only in the event that the security or the functional capability of the network operations requires it imperatively. Should such limitations become necessary (for instance in order to defend against hacker attacks), Upload Robots will immediately inform its users about the background of this limitation. Should it be foreseeable that downtimes for maintenance or software updates take longer than three hours, Upload Robots will inform its users of this at least three days before executing the respective work.
1. Upload Robots will inform the users of Premium and Collector's Accounts via email about amendments to the General Terms and Conditions before they come into effect. In the event that amendments have been effected to the user's disadvantage, he/she is entitled to cancel the contractual relationship within a time limit of four weeks as of receipt of the notification of change provided that his/her premium membership does not end before the legal validity of the altered General Terms and Conditions. Should the user not make use of his/her right of cancellation, the alterations are presumed to be accepted and become an effective integral part of the contract. When communicating newly composed GTC, Upload Robots is obligated to again specifically point out this provision to its Premium and Collector's Account users.
2. Should a term of the contract or a provision of the General Terms and Conditions be or become entirely or partially ineffective, this shall not affect the validity of the rest of the contract or the General Terms and Conditions. In lieu of the invalid condition such valid provision shall be incorporated as shall best approximate the actual purpose of the stipulated condition. The same shall also apply should any omission in the agreement become apparent.
At violation of our Conditions of use, we are authorized to block your access and delete your files. If you write programs aiming to violate our Conditions of Use, you will be prosecuted and made liable for any losses occurred.
