6. Final Provisions

6.1 These Terms of Use were drafted in German and have been translated into English. If there should be a conflict between the two versions, the German version shall be authoritative.

6.2 The Archive reserves the right to amend these Terms of Use and the privacy policy at any time unless this would cause a disadvantage for the User contrary to good faith. The User will be informed of any amendments by e‑mail at least 30 days before they come into force. Any continued use of the online archive of the catalogue raisonné by the User after an amendment comes into force will be deemed an acceptance of the amendment by the User unless the User objects to the amendment explicitly in text form. The Archive will point this legal consequence out to the User explicitly within the framework of the information provided by e‑mail. If the User exercises his right to object, the amendment request will be deemed denied. The contract will then be continued without the proposed amendments, but can be terminated by either Party at any time without notice.

6.3 The Archive reserves the right, in particular, to discontinue the free access to the Online Catalogue Raisonné at any time and to make continued use possible only in return for payment of a reasonable charge. The User will be informed of this by e‑mail at least 60 days before this change comes into force. The User will be asked, when he next accesses the Online Catalogue Raisonné after the 60-day period has expired, whether he accepts this change and will be requested to enter his payment details. If the user does not accept the change, the amendment request will be deemed denied. The contract will then be continued without the proposed amendments, but can be terminated by either Party at any time without notice.

6.4 Should one or more of these Terms be invalid in whole or in part, the remaining Terms shall remain valid. In such case, the Parties undertake to agree on a legally valid clause that reflects as closely as possible, in commercial terms, the clause that is invalid in whole or in part.

6.5 The legal relationship between the User and the Archive is governed by German law, excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

6.6 Sole place of jurisdiction, to the extent permitted by law, shall be Berlin.
