1.1. Liability. Additional obligations

1.1.4 Client can agree to purchase beta releases of Services (meaning Services under development and not final yet, beta stage). Those services may have some irregularities that still need to be worked out. As the Client has accepted a beta release of a service, CM.com Germany GmbH can’t be held liable for any loss or damage due to this service.

1.1.5 No right to compensation shall ever arise unless the party in question reports the loss to the other party in writing within 10 (ten) Working Days after it has arisen. The other party then has 10 (ten) Working Days to remedy the loss, if possible.
