V. Description of the Service

  2. myPlan.cloud is a plug-n-play SaaS (Software as a Service) application that can be used through a web browser, without the need to install any software. The Software can be used from any web browser.
  3. A detailed description of the functions of the Software can be found on the Website: https://myplan.cloud/features/

VI. Registration, creation of the Contract, trial period, process of using the Service

  1. The first step is for the User to register by filling in the form on the Website and order the service at the same time. During registration, the User is required to provide accurate information.
  2. Following the registration/order, the Service Provider shall send a confirmation email to finalise the User’s registration and send the data required to use the Service. Upon finalisation of the registration/order, the Contract is concluded between the Parties. The date of finalisation of the registration and the date of conclusion of the Contract is the date on which the User is granted access to the Software.
  3. By registering, the User acknowledges that he/she is over the age of 18 (eighteen) and is a person of legal capacity, who uses the Service in the course of his/her business activities or is a representative of a business entity, and registers on behalf of himself/herself or the business entity he/she represents, providing accurate information and contact details.
  4. If the Service Provider becomes aware that the range of information provided by the User contains false data, it is entitled to refuse registration or restrict access to the Service Provider’s online services in whole or in part, or exclude the User from using the Service Provider’s online services.
  5. The Service Provider provides the opportunity for all Users to try the Software free of charge and without obligation by starting Free trial. The User shall not automatically enter a period of chargeable fees.
  6. Other services, for example advice on the selection of the Software, the installation and implementation of the Software or the full education and training associated with the Software are not covered by this Contract. The Service Provider provides free of charge instructional videos in electronic format.

VII. Software usage fee, payment terms

  1. The monthly fee for the use of the Software (hereinafter referred to as the “Fee”) is determined on the basis of the maximum amount of storage space used and the maximum number of users in a given month, according to the pricing published on the Service Provider’s website (https://myplan.cloud/pricing/). The Fee is payable per project, i.e. the Fee is payable per User for the number of projects to which the User is assigned.
  2.  If the User wishes to manage more than one construction investment in the Software, the User must create a separate project for each investment. This means that work on different sites cannot be managed collectively under one project. Any breach of this clause shall be considered a serious breach of contract.
  3. The Service Provider draws attention to the fact that the Fee is value-secured. Indexation is based on 100% of the monthly Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices (MUICP) for the euro area, published by the Statistical Office of the European Union (EUROSTAT). The Fee is adjusted once a year in proportion to the percentage change in the consumer price index compared to the same month of the previous year, if the index is positive. Since the consumer price index will be published after the start of the adjustment, the Service Provider may retroactively apply and invoice the difference as of 1 January of the year in question. If the value of the consumer price index specified herein is not published, the Parties shall use the index applicable as a substitute for it or, if no substitute is provided, the index which comes closest to it.
  4. In addition to the above, the Service Provider reserves the right to change the price and may unilaterally increase the Service fee, provided that it sends a written notice to the User at least 30 (thirty) days prior to the increase. If the User does not duly terminate the Contract no later than the date on which the increase becomes due, the increased service fees will continue to apply. If the User does not accept the change, they shall be entitled to terminate the Contract by giving 30 (thirty) days’ notice before the entry into force of the fee increase. Detailed information about the fees for the Service is available on the Website. 
  5. Invoicing takes place in the month following the relevant month. The User shall receive the invoice by e-mail. The User accepts the electronic billing system. The User shall pay the monthly Fee for the month in question in arrears, against the invoice sent, with a 15 (fifteen) day payment deadline. The Fee shall be deemed to have been paid on the date on which the amount has been credited in full to the Service Provider’s account. 
  6. In the event of late payment, the Service Provider may charge interest on late payment at a rate of twice the prevailing base rate of the Hungarian Central Bank.
  7. The Service Provider shall fix the Fee of the Service in euros (EUR). If nevertheless the User decides to pay the Fee in Hungarian forints (HUF), the User/Customer may do so, but acknowledges that in this case they shall bear the exchange rate risk, which cannot be transferred to the Service Provider. The amount in HUF corresponding to the amount in EUR (converted at the current intermediate exchange rate of the Hungarian National Bank) is automatically indicated on each invoice and any User intending wishing to pay in HUF, shall pay the HUF amount indicated.
  8. If the User is in arrears with the payment of the invoice, the Service Provider will request the User/Customer to pay the invoice via the contact email address specified during registration or via the warning messages displayed in the software. In the event of a delay exceeding 15 (fifteen) days, the Service Provider may suspend access to the Service until the User has fulfilled its payment obligations. If the User fails to comply with the payment obligation after a second notice and the late payment exceeds 30 (thirty) days, the Service Provider may terminate this Contract with immediate effect. From the 31st (thirty-first) day of the late payment, the User is not entitled to use the Software. The Service Provider may delete the data after 45 (forty-five) days of being late.
  9. During the period of suspension or limitation for reasons beyond the User’s control, the User shall be liable to pay the fees for the Service, and the Service Provider may charge a fee for removing the suspension or limitation.

VIII. Rights and obligations of the Service Provider

  2. In no event shall the Service Provider be liable for any damages (including loss of business profits, business interruption, loss of business information and data, and other non-contractual damages) arising out of or in connection with the use of the Software provided by the Service Provider. The maximum liability of the Service Provider for any damage, whether covered by the Contract or not, shall not exceed the annual net amount of the Fee paid by the User. The Fees applied by the Service Provider reflect the limitation of liability set out in this clause. The liability of the Service Provider for breach of contract shall be aligned with the limitation of liability provision set out in this clause, unless otherwise provided by a mandatory rule. The Parties shall apply the limitation of liability clause under this clause in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Civil Code. The provisions on exclusion and limitation of liability contained in this clause shall not apply to cases of causing damage where, at the time of damage in which, at the time it was caused, liability for this damage could not be validly limited or excluded under Hungarian law.
  3. Furthermore, the Service Provider shall not be liable for any malfunctions or damage to data due to any defect of the computers and other devices operated by the User.

  9. The Service Provider provides the Software for use, and the User is responsible for the data stored therein and their legality (e.g., if the User records personal information, he/she must have the consent to do so).
  10. Service Provider may modify and extend the Software while retaining its functionality.
  11. The Service Provider may suspend access to the Service if the User breaches the terms of the Contract or the GTC until the User remedies the breach.

Before taking such action, the Service Provider shall, whenever possible, request the User to remedy the breach of contract within a reasonable period of time.

IX. Rights and obligations of the User
