The specific scope of services is determined exclusively by the relevant proposal or contract.

Service delivery and subcontractors
The Contractor may engage qualified subcontractors to provide the services.
The Contractor remains responsible to the Client.
Services may be delivered by the Contractor or by appointed third parties.
Client's cooperation obligations
The Client undertakes to provide all information, documents and access required for service delivery completely and in good time.
The Client must organise internal decision-making processes to avoid delays.
If the Client fails to fulfil its cooperation obligations, agreed deadlines will be extended appropriately. Any resulting additional work may be invoiced separately.

A 50% advance payment is due upon commissioning. The balance is payable as stated in the proposal, before handover or according to agreed project progress.

The agreed monthly fee is payable in advance.
Payment is due within 14 days of the invoice date, without deduction.
In the event of late payment, statutory default interest under Section 456 UGB applies. The Contractor may also suspend services until full payment is received.
Acceptance of work deliverables
Where a contract for work has been agreed, the work is deemed accepted if:
- the Client approves the work; or
- no material defects are reported in writing within 14 days of handover.
Minor defects do not entitle the Client to refuse acceptance.
Changes to the scope of services
Changes or additions to the agreed scope require a written agreement.
Additional work will be invoiced separately.
Liability
The Contractor is liable for damage caused intentionally or through gross negligence.
For slight negligence, except in cases of personal injury, liability is limited to the value of the relevant contract.
Liability for lost profits, indirect damage or consequential damage is excluded.
Mandatory statutory liability provisions remain unaffected.
No guarantee of success
The Contractor owes the agreed services but does not guarantee a specific commercial outcome.
Project success depends substantially on the Client's cooperation and external factors.
Use of AI systems and third-party providers
AI systems, automation tools and third-party software may be used to provide the services.
The Contractor is not liable for:
- the availability of external services
- changes to third-party providers' services
- technical outages beyond the Contractor's control
The services do not constitute legal advice provided by a lawyer.
Data protection
Any personal data is processed in accordance with applicable data protection requirements.
Where necessary, a data processing agreement under Article 28 GDPR will be concluded.
Intellectual property
All concepts, methods, frameworks, documentation, systems and materials remain the Contractor's intellectual property.
The Client receives a non-exclusive, non-transferable right of use within the contractually agreed scope.
Distribution or reproduction without written consent is prohibited.
Force majeure
Events of force majeure, particularly natural disasters, official measures, IT outages beyond the Contractor's control or third-party outages, entitle the parties to an appropriate adjustment of deadlines.
Contract duration and termination
Project contracts end when the agreed scope of services has been completed.
Unless otherwise agreed, retainers may be terminated with one month's notice to the end of a month.
In the event of early termination, services already provided must be paid in full.
Confidentiality
Both parties undertake to maintain confidentiality regarding all information obtained during the collaboration.
Final provisions
Austrian law applies.
The place of jurisdiction is Vienna.
If any provision is invalid, the remaining provisions remain effective.
