Terms and Conditions
This is a courtesy translation. The German version at dantedi.de/agb.html is the legally binding text.
These Terms and Conditions (hereinafter "Terms") apply to the use of all services offered under the domain dantedi.de and its subdomains, in particular the Discord bot (hereinafter "Bot" or "Service") and the associated dashboard (hereinafter "Dashboard").
The provider is the natural person named in the Legal Notice (hereinafter "Provider").
By first using the Service — in particular by adding the Bot to a Discord server or by logging in to the Dashboard — the user declares their agreement to these Terms. Any conflicting or deviating terms proposed by the user are not recognized.
The Provider makes available a Discord bot that includes the following functions (selection, depending on activated modules):
- Moderation and server administration
- XP and level system
- AI-powered features via OpenAI (text generation, image generation)
- Appointment management and countdowns
- File management and entertainment commands
- Twitch announcements and other integrations
The exact scope of functionality may vary depending on configuration and available modules. There is no entitlement to a specific scope of functionality.
The Service is provided free of charge unless expressly agreed otherwise. The fact that the Service is free of charge does not create any legal claim to permanent operation or a particular level of availability.
3.1 Permitted use
The Service may only be used for lawful purposes and in accordance with the Discord Terms of Service and the Discord Community Guidelines .
3.2 Prohibited use
The user is expressly prohibited from:
- using the Service to distribute unlawful, offensive, discriminatory, content harmful to minors, or otherwise objectionable content;
- using the Service to harass, stalk, or threaten other persons;
- burdening the Provider's infrastructure through automated mass requests, flooding, or DoS attacks;
- reverse-engineering or copying the Bot or Dashboard, or using them for their own commercial purposes;
- circumventing or manipulating the Service's security mechanisms;
- using other users' credentials or gaining unauthorized access to the Dashboard;
- using the Service to infringe third parties' intellectual property;
- misusing AI features to generate spam, disinformation, or harmful content.
3.3 Obligation to comply with Discord
Server administrators who add the Bot to their server are solely responsible for ensuring that the Bot's use on their server complies with Discord's Terms of Service. The Provider assumes no responsibility for violations committed by server administrators or their members.
3.4 Minimum age
Use of the Service requires that the user be at least 13 years old (per Discord's Terms of Service) or meet the minimum age for the use of digital services applicable in their country of residence.
The Provider strives for the highest possible availability of the Service but gives no guarantee of uninterrupted operation. The Service may be temporarily unavailable for the following reasons:
- Scheduled maintenance and updates
- Technical disruptions at the Provider or third parties (in particular Discord, OpenAI)
- Force majeure, network outages, or other unforeseeable events
- Changes to the Discord API or other external interfaces
There is no entitlement to damages for unavailability. The Provider may technically adapt, restrict, or discontinue the Service at any time without prior notice.
5.1 Principle
The Provider is liable without limitation for damages caused by intent or gross negligence on the part of the Provider, as well as for damages resulting from injury to life, body, or health.
5.2 Limited liability
In cases of ordinary negligence, the Provider is only liable if material contractual obligations (cardinal obligations) are breached — and even then only for typically foreseeable damage. Any further liability for ordinary negligence is excluded.
5.3 Exclusion of liability for third-party services
The Provider is not liable for damages or outages caused by third-party services. This applies in particular to:
- Discord: outages, API changes, suspension of accounts or bots by Discord Inc.
- OpenAI: content generated by AI models; outages or changes to the OpenAI API.
5.4 Exclusion of liability for AI-generated content
The Provider assumes no liability whatsoever for content generated by AI features (in particular OpenAI). AI-generated content may be incomplete, incorrect, or inappropriate. Responsibility for the use of AI features and their content lies with the respective server administrator and end users.
5.5 Exclusion of liability for user data
The Provider is not liable for the loss of user data (e.g. XP points, configurations) caused by technical faults, database failures, or force majeure. Data backups are performed to the best of the Provider's ability but are not guaranteed.
5.6 Exclusion of liability for user conduct
The Provider is not liable for damages caused by the conduct of users or server administrators. Users who misuse the Service may have any claims arising from such misuse asserted against them.
6.1 Provider's right to suspend
The Provider is entitled to suspend or terminate a user's or a Discord server's access to the Service at any time without prior notice, in particular if:
- the user violates these Terms or Discord's Terms of Service;
- the user commits or has committed unlawful acts;
- the user uses the Service in a way that impairs operation or other users;
- the Provider discontinues or restricts the Service.
In the event of a justified suspension, there is no entitlement to a refund.
6.2 Termination by the user
The user may end use of the Service at any time by removing the Bot from their Discord server and/or deleting their Dashboard account. Deletion of stored personal data can be requested by email to the Provider (see Privacy Policy).
6.3 Discontinuation of the Service
The Provider reserves the right to permanently discontinue the Service. Notification of active users will be attempted in the event of a planned discontinuation but cannot be guaranteed.
All rights to the Service, the Bot's source code, the Dashboard, and related works belong to the Provider unless expressly stated otherwise. Reproduction, distribution, or public availability without the Provider's express written consent is prohibited.
Users grant the Provider the right to process content they provide via the Service (e.g. appointment descriptions, configurations) to the extent necessary for the operation of the Service.
The Provider reserves the right to amend these Terms at any time. Amendments will be published on this page and take effect upon publication. For material changes affecting existing users, an announcement will be made where possible through appropriate channels (e.g. the Provider's Discord server).
Continued use of the Service after publication of amendments constitutes acceptance of the amended Terms. Users who do not agree to the amendments have the right to terminate use immediately.
Information on the collection and processing of personal data can be found in the Privacy Policy. It forms part of these Terms.
The laws of the Federal Republic of Germany apply, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).
The place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with these Terms is, to the extent legally permissible, the Provider's place of business. For users who are consumers within the meaning of § 13 BGB (German Civil Code), this place of jurisdiction applies only if the user has no general place of jurisdiction in Germany.
Should individual provisions of these Terms be or become invalid, in whole or in part, this does not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. The invalid provision shall be replaced by the statutory rule that comes closest to the economic purpose of the invalid provision.
The user indemnifies the Provider against all claims, damages, losses, fines, and costs — including reasonable legal fees — asserted by third parties against the Provider and arising from or in connection with:
- a violation by the user of these Terms or applicable law;
- unlawful or abusive use of the Service;
- an infringement of third-party rights (in particular copyright, personality, or data protection rights) by the user;
- content that the user distributes or has distributed via the Service;
- acts or omissions of server members on Discord servers operated by the user as administrator.
The indemnification obligation does not apply insofar as the Provider has caused the damage intentionally or through gross negligence. In such a case, the Provider is entitled to conduct the legal defense itself and to request the user's cooperation and reimbursement of costs.
The Provider is not liable for the complete or partial non-fulfillment of its obligations to the extent this is due to events beyond its reasonable control. This includes in particular:
- natural disasters, fires, floods;
- wars, acts of terrorism, government orders, or official measures;
- pandemics or other extraordinary health crises;
- cyberattacks, DDoS attacks, or security incidents caused by third parties;
- failures of general internet infrastructure or data centers;
- unilateral changes, suspensions, or discontinuations by Discord, OpenAI, or other third-party providers on which the Service depends.
The Provider will inform the user of such circumstances where possible and will resume operations promptly once the obstacle no longer applies. Claims for damages are excluded in such cases.
The use of automated methods to access the Service or its infrastructure — in particular bots, scrapers, crawlers, flood tools, or similar techniques — is prohibited without the Provider's express written permission.
Attempts to circumvent security mechanisms, obtain other users' credentials, misuse API endpoints, or impair the Service's operation through excessive request load entitle the Provider to immediately and permanently suspend the user concerned and to assert claims for damages.
Such actions may also result in civil and criminal consequences, in particular under §§ 202a and 303b of the German Criminal Code (StGB) (data espionage and computer sabotage).
15.1 Paid plans
In addition to a free basic offering, the Provider may offer paid subscription plans (hereinafter "Subscription") with an expanded feature set. The type, scope, and price of the respective plans are clearly stated on the offer or booking page. All prices are final prices. As the Provider is subject to the small business regulation under § 19 of the German VAT Act (UStG), no VAT is shown.
15.2 Contract term & renewal
Subscriptions are concluded for the period selected at booking (e.g. monthly or annually) and automatically renew for the same period unless cancelled in time. Cancellation must be received at least 14 days before the end of the respective billing period.
15.3 Payment & due dates
The invoice amount is due at the start of each billing period and collected via the respective offered payment service provider. In the event of late payment, the Provider is entitled to suspend access to paid features until payment is received.
15.4 Termination by the user
The user may cancel a Subscription at any time, effective at the end of the current billing period. After the paid period ends, access is downgraded to the free feature set. Amounts already paid are not refunded pro rata, unless the Provider has discontinued the Service without good cause.
15.5 Right of withdrawal for consumers
Consumers have a statutory right of withdrawal under § 355 BGB. This right may lapse under § 356(5) BGB if the user expressly consents before conclusion of the contract that the Service begins immediately after booking, and simultaneously confirms that they thereby lose their right of withdrawal. This consent is obtained during the booking process via a mandatory checkbox.
Unless an early start was agreed, the following withdrawal notice applies:
Right of withdrawal: You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period is 14 days from the day the contract was concluded.
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (email: michael@dantedi.de) by means of a clear statement (e.g. an email) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You may use the model withdrawal form below, although this is not mandatory.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period expires.
Effects of withdrawal: If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse all payments received from you without undue delay, and no later than 14 days from the day on which we received notification of your withdrawal from this contract. For this reimbursement, we will use the same means of payment you used for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; in no case will you be charged any fees for this reimbursement.
Model withdrawal form:
To: Michael Seuberth, michael@dantedi.de
I hereby give notice that I withdraw from my contract for the provision of the following service: [description of the subscription]
Ordered on: ___________
Name: ___________
Date: ___________
15.6 Price changes
The Provider reserves the right to adjust Subscription prices. Price increases will be communicated to the user at least 30 days before taking effect, by email or via the Dashboard. If the user does not agree to the increase, they may cancel the Subscription before the change takes effect without additional cost.
Claims by the user against the Provider that are not based on intent or gross negligence and do not concern claims arising from injury to life, body, or health shall, by way of deviation from the statutory provisions, become time-barred within one (1) year from the user's knowledge of the event giving rise to the damage and of the person of the party liable.
For users who are consumers within the meaning of § 13 BGB, this shortening of the limitation period applies only to the extent permitted under applicable consumer law. Otherwise, the statutory limitation periods apply.
