Terms of Use
Terms governing the use of Big Box Rox.
1. Scope and provider
These Terms of Use govern the use of Big Box Rox (the “Platform”), operated by Sebastian Erfurth, Sonnenstraße 54b, 97456 Dittelbrunn, Germany (see the Imprint). Deviating terms of the user do not apply.
2. Description of the service
Big Box Rox lets users catalogue and manage their game collection and - depending on their settings - present it publicly as a showcase. Paid plans (“Collector”, “Curator”) unlock additional features, such as a cross-collection search, restricting a collection to signed-in members, and hiding the profile from the community search. There is no claim to uninterrupted availability.
3. Registration and account
Certain features require an account. Authentication is handled by Clerk. Users are responsible for keeping their credentials confidential and for activity carried out under their account. [Minimum age to be specified.]
4. User content and rights
Users retain ownership of the content they add (texts, photos, collection data). They grant the provider the simple right, necessary to operate and display the Platform, to store, display and - to the extent selected by the user - make that content publicly available. Users warrant that they hold the necessary rights to their content and do not infringe any third-party rights.
5. Public visibility and searchability
If the user sets their collection to public (the default), they are aware of and agree that the content selected for display is visible to third parties, findable in the public directory, searchable platform-wide (including by other members via the cross-collection search) and may be indexed by search engines. The user can change the visibility at any time in the account settings (set to private, restrict to signed-in members, hide from the community search) and can export and delete their data at any time. Details of the data processing are set out in the Privacy Policy.
6. Prohibited use
In particular the following are prohibited: unlawful content, infringements of rights, spam, automated retrieval (scraping) of the Platform, misuse of the community features, and the bulk or commercial extraction of other users’ collection data from the search.
7. Paid plans, payment and withdrawal
Paid plans are offered at Collector (€5.99) and Curator (€9.99). Payments are processed by Stripe (see the Privacy Policy). [Billing period, automatic renewal, cancellation, and the statutory right of withdrawal for consumers - including the notice on the early commencement of the service and the lapse of the right of withdrawal for digital content - are still to be finalised and reviewed.] Please note: paid plans are not yet active.
8. Liability
[Liability provision under German law: liability for intent and gross negligence; for slight negligence limited to damages typical of the contract; no liability for user-generated content within the meaning of §§ 7-10 TMG/DDG. To be finalised.]
9. Term, termination and deletion
Users may terminate their account at any time. [Consequences for data and public content, deletion periods, and suspension in the event of violations to be specified.]
10. Changes to these Terms
[Reservation of the right to change these Terms, with a notice / consent mechanism, to be specified.]
11. Final provisions
[Applicable law, place of jurisdiction, severability clause, and a reference to the EU Commission’s online dispute resolution platform, to be specified.]
12. Founding Members
(1) Definition.The first 500 users who take out a paid subscription (Collector or Curator plan) after the activation of paid plans are designated as “Founding Members”. Each Founding Member is assigned a unique, sequential membership number (1 to 500).
(2) Price guarantee.Founding Members receive their chosen subscription plan at a permanently reduced price: Collector at €4.99 / month (instead of €5.99) and Curator at €7.99 / month (instead of €9.99). This reduced price is guaranteed for the entire duration of an uninterrupted active subscription.
(3) Continuity requirement. The price guarantee applies exclusively as long as the subscription is maintained without interruption. Cancellation of the subscription leads to the permanent loss of Founding Member status and the associated price guarantee. Upon re-subscribing, the then-current standard price applies.
(4) Badge. Founding Members receive a visible Founding Member badge on their public collector page. This badge is personal and non-transferable.
(5) Reservation of adjustment.In the event of extraordinary circumstances - in particular a fundamental restructuring of the service or its discontinuation - the provider reserves the right to adjust the guaranteed price with at least three months’ prior written notice. In such cases, Founding Members have the right to terminate their subscription with immediate effect and without further obligation.
