If we disclose personal information to third parties acting as agents of
TeamSpeak USA, we will ensure that such third parties are also certified
for the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield or have a resolution of appropriateness
issued by the EU Commission, or that there are written agreements
between us and the third party that at least meet Privacy Shield's

technical security of some of our computer hardware, we rely on the
services of third parties. We believe that their security measures are
appropriate. For example, when you visit teamspeak.com, you access a
server behind closed doors and an electronic firewall. Although we take
industry-standard precautions to protect your personal information, we
cannot guarantee complete security. 100% complete security is currently
available neither online nor offline. TeamSpeak USA takes current
technical measures to ensure data security and in particular to protect

purpose other than that for which it was originally collected. You may
also opt out of the use of your personal information by contacting us at

information for any purpose other than that for which it was originally
collected or subsequently authorized by you, unless we have received
your express consent.
TeamSpeak USA also provides you with reasonable access to personal
information obtained in accordance with the Privacy Shield Principles.

protect your personal information. For example, when you call, we only
ask for the personal information we need to process the order or answer
the question. When we need to store information, we enter it into our
database using SSL encryption. Faxes are another example. If you fax us
something, we respond to the fax and either store it in a locked room or
we destroy the fax if the information does not need to be kept. It
should be noted that we try to comply with the standards for data
obtained online for data obtained offline.

the Privacy Shields. Any employee found by TeamSpeak USA to be in

9.1.3 The amount of current licence fees for the granting of licences in

minimum license fee is not reached, the customer must nevertheless pay
license fees in the amount of the minimum license fee.

license fees stated in the service description for the respective
license model shall be deemed agreed.

other individual orders).
11. Termination of license agreements for the software solutions

for the breach.
11.5.1.5 if the customer has chosen the license models "Unlicensed" or

or fraudulent intent, as well as in the case of recourse claims pursuant
to §§ 478, 479 BGB (German Civil Code).
18.2.2 A warranty by TeamSpeak is excluded if the defect is due to
circumstances caused by TeamSpeak at the express request of the customer.

§ 536a Abs. 1 BGB is excluded.

with the statutory provisions.
19.2 In other cases, TeamSpeak shall be liable - unless otherwise
stipulated in Section 19.1 of these GTC - only in the event of a breach
of a contractual obligation, the fulfilment of which is essential for
the proper execution of the contract and on the observance of which the
customer may therefore regularly rely (so-called cardinal obligation).
In all other cases, TeamSpeak's liability is excluded subject to the
provision in Section 19.1 of these GTC.
19.3 To the extent that TeamSpeak is liable on the merits pursuant to
clause 19.1 of these GTC, this liability shall be limited to damages
which TeamSpeak foresaw at the time of conclusion of the contract as a
possible consequence of a breach of contract or which TeamSpeak should

residence is not thereby withdrawn (principle of favourability).
22.2 The place of performance for all services arising from business
relations with TeamSpeak and the place of jurisdiction shall be the
registered office of TeamSpeak, provided that the user is not a consumer
but a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under

of jurisdiction in Germany or the EU or if the place of residence or
