Terms of Service

1. Provider and scope

These Terms govern the Noweb account, website builder, template, publishing and hosting services provided by Corinna Kimmerle-Muffler, trading as noweb, Schwabenstraße 26, 72768 Reutlingen, Germany ("Noweb", "we" or "us"). Contact: team@noweb.app.

The contract language is English. By creating an account or using an account created through Google or GitHub sign-in, you agree to these Terms. Our Privacy Policy explains how personal data is processed.

2. Eligibility and accounts

You must be legally capable of entering into this agreement. If you are not legally capable on your own, you may use Noweb only with the consent of a parent or legal guardian. You must provide accurate information, keep login credentials secure and promptly notify us of suspected unauthorized access.

One person may not create accounts to evade service limits, moderation or a suspension. You are responsible for activity carried out through your account unless it results from circumstances outside your control.

3. Free and paid services

A free account allows access to the functions identified as free in the service. A paid subscription enables the paid website-building, template and hosting functions described on the pricing page and at checkout. Unless a different limit is clearly shown before purchase, an account may hold up to 20 projects and 20 user-created templates.

Features may depend on compatible browsers, a working internet connection and correct DNS configuration for custom domains. You are responsible for acquiring and maintaining any custom domain that you connect to Noweb.

4. Subscriptions sold by Polar

Paid subscriptions are sold and billed by Polar Software, Inc. as merchant of record. Your purchase from Polar is additionally governed by the Polar Buyer Terms. Polar handles payment methods, tax calculation, invoices and payment-related refunds. These Terms remain the supplier agreement governing your license and use of Noweb.

Monthly and annual subscriptions renew automatically for the same billing period until canceled. The applicable total price, billing interval, taxes, any valid discount code and renewal information are displayed before you place the order. There is no free trial unless it is expressly displayed at checkout.

You can cancel at any time. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid billing period, and paid access continues until then. Use the cancellation page or the Polar customer portal. Cancellation does not itself refund a period that has already started. You can exercise an eligible statutory withdrawal through the electronic withdrawal function. Mandatory refund and consumer rights remain unaffected. We do not offer additional voluntary refunds unless expressly stated at checkout.

5. Template and website license

For the duration of your right to use the relevant service, Noweb grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide license to use the available Noweb and community templates to create and operate your own private or commercial websites. You may customize templates and publish the resulting websites through Noweb.

You may not sell, sublicense, redistribute or make an unmodified or modified template, source bundle or substantial part of the Noweb service available as a standalone product. You may not copy or use Noweb branding in a way that suggests endorsement or ownership.

6. Your content and community templates

You retain ownership of content you create or upload. You grant Noweb a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, technically modify, compile, display and transmit that content to the extent necessary to operate, secure, moderate and provide the service.

When you submit a template for public approval, you additionally grant Noweb the right to make that template available to other Noweb users free of charge under the website-use license in Section 5. For users who already created a website from an approved community template, this license survives later removal of the template to the extent needed for those existing websites.

You confirm that you hold all rights needed for your content and that its use through Noweb does not infringe copyright, trademark, privacy, personality or other third-party rights.

Submit a public template only if every included image, font, video, code and other asset may be used commercially and made available to other Noweb users under the license in Section 5.

7. Prohibited use

You may not use Noweb to:

• publish or facilitate illegal content or activity;
• infringe intellectual-property or privacy rights;
• harass, defraud, impersonate or unlawfully discriminate;
• distribute malware, phishing pages or harmful code;
• add tracking, forms, external scripts or other data-collection functions that Noweb does not expressly support;
• bypass security, access controls, service limits or moderation; or
• interfere with the service or other users.

8. Moderation and illegal-content notices

Community templates require manual approval before public listing. We may reject, restrict, unpublish or remove content, and may suspend an account, when we reasonably believe that content or conduct violates law, these Terms, third-party rights or the security of the service. Moderation is performed manually; we do not use automated content moderation or automated decision-making for these decisions.

Where required, we will give the affected user a reason for a restriction and an opportunity to contact us. Anyone may report specific allegedly illegal content through our notice and action form. Notices must be submitted in good faith and identify the content precisely enough for us to assess it.

9. Availability, changes and security

We provide the service with reasonable care and aim to keep it available, but uninterrupted availability is not promised. Temporary interruptions may be necessary for maintenance, security, updates or events outside our reasonable control. We may make proportionate changes needed for security, legal compliance or technical operation, provided that the core paid service is not materially reduced without a legal basis or appropriate remedy.

Noweb is not a permanent archive. Keep copies of content that you cannot recreate. This does not limit mandatory rights relating to a failure to provide the digital service with reasonable care.

10. Ending the account

You may request deletion of your free account by emailing team@noweb.app from the account email address. A paid subscription must first be canceled through the cancellation process. When paid access ends, paid editing, publishing and hosting functions may be disabled and associated content may be unpublished or deleted when it is no longer needed to provide the account, subject to Section 6 and legal retention duties.

We may terminate or suspend an account for a material breach. Unless immediate action is reasonably necessary for security, illegal content or protection of others, we will provide notice and a reasonable opportunity to remedy the breach.

11. Liability

We are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, under the German Product Liability Act and where we expressly guarantee a characteristic. For slight negligence, we are liable only for breach of an essential contractual duty and only for the foreseeable damage typical for this agreement. An essential duty is one whose performance is necessary for the proper performance of the contract and on which you may regularly rely.

These limitations also apply to our legal representatives and agents. They do not limit mandatory consumer remedies, data-protection liability or any other liability that cannot lawfully be restricted.

12. Consumer rights

Mandatory statutory rights for digital products and services remain unaffected.

13. Governing law

German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If you are a consumer, this choice does not deprive you of mandatory protections granted by the law of the country in which you ordinarily reside. Statutory rules on courts and jurisdiction remain unaffected.

If a provision is invalid, the remaining provisions continue to apply. The invalid provision is replaced only by the applicable statutory rule; no automatic reduction or extension is intended.
