Last updated: February 22, 2026
§ 1 Scope of application
These General Terms and Conditions apply to all services provided by Terruhn.IT Manufaktur, unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing.
In addition, the statutory provisions of the German Civil Code (BGB) apply.
§ 2 Scope of services
The nature and scope of the services provided by the Terruhn.IT Manufaktur are set out in the respective offer or individual agreement.
Services not expressly agreed are not part of the order.
§ 3 Duty to co-operate
(1) You are responsible for
- regular and complete data backups,
- the use of up-to-date virus protection,
- Ensuring a functional system status before starting technical measures.
(2) Unless a separate backup service has been agreed upon, you are responsible for regular and complete data backups.
Before starting any technical measures, it is recommended that you have a current backup ready.
If interventions are carried out without an existing data backup, you bear the risk of any resulting data loss, unless this is due to a culpable breach of duty on the part of the manufacturer.
Statutory liability remains unaffected.
(3) You document and store access data that you transmit as part of the collaboration independently and securely.
Permanent storage of access data only takes place within the framework of a separate agreement.
(4) Work on already damaged or neglected systems (fire brigade operations)
If services are performed on systems that have already suffered data loss, security incidents, system instability or long-term neglect, the activity is carried out under increased risk.
A complete restoration of data, functions or security statuses cannot be guaranteed in these cases.
If no current backup is available, you bear the risk of data loss that already exists or is caused by the system status.
The Terruhn.IT Manufaktur’s legal liability remains unaffected.
§ 4 Liability
Liability is governed by the statutory provisions.
The manufacturer shall be liable without limitation for intentional or grossly negligent breaches of duty.
In the event of a slightly negligent breach of essential contractual obligations (cardinal obligations), liability shall be limited to the foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract. Essential contractual obligations are those whose fulfillment is essential for the proper execution of the contract and on whose compliance you can regularly rely.
A limitation of liability does not apply in the event of injury to life, limb, or health.
Insofar as liability is excluded or limited, this also applies to the personal liability of employees or vicarious agents.
§ 5 Remuneration and due date
Invoices are payable within the specified period without deduction.
The statutory regulations on due date and default shall apply.
§ 6 Place of jurisdiction
If you are an entrepreneur within the meaning of the German Civil Code (BGB), the place of jurisdiction is Göttingen. For consumers, the statutory provisions governing jurisdiction apply.
§ 7 Final provisions
The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply.
