These Terms of Use may be altered, amended or replaced by other terms and conditions, for example, for the purchase of products and services. By logging in, or where log in is not required, these terms of use are accepted in their present version whenever you use or make use of the Heka Dental website.

1.2. In the case of web offers aimed at businesses or public bodies such businesses or public bodies are represented by the user and must assume that the user has adequate knowledge and acts accordingly.

 

2. Services

2.1. This Heka Dental website contains specific information and software as well as related documentation for display or download.

2.2. Heka Dental may at any time suspend operation of the Heka Dental website in whole or in part. Due to the nature of the internet and computing devices, Heka Dental cannot accept any responsibility for the continued availability of the Heka Dental website.

 

3. Registration, passcode

3.1. Some pages on the Heka Dental website may be passcode protected. With regard to security and the security of business transactions, only registered users may gain access to the pages in question. Heka Dental retains the right to deny registration to any user. Heka Dental retains in particular the right to determine that certain areas that were previously openly accessible shall henceforth be subject to registration. Heka Dental has the right at any time, and without obligation to state the reasons, to deny the user access to the passcode protected area by blocking the user’s data (as defined below), in particular if the user
– uses false data to register
– contravenes these conditions of use or is negligent in the duty of care relating to user data
– contravenes applicable legislation on access to or use of the Heka Dental website or
– has not used the Heka Dental website for an extended period.

3.2. When registering, the user must enter accurate data and if this data changes over time, to update this data (to the extent this is possible: online) without undue delay. The user must ensure that the email address as provided to Heka Dental is always valid and an address where the user may be contacted.

3.3. On registration the user will be given an access code that consists of a user ID and code word (“user data”). On first access the user should immediately change the access code received from Heka Dental to a code word known only to the user. User data gives the user the option to view or change their data or where relevant to withdraw consent to data processing.

3.4. The user must ensure that user data is not accessible for any third party and is responsible for all transactions and other activities performed under the user data. At the end of every online session, the user must log off the websites protected by the access code. If, and insofar as the user becomes aware of this, a third party misuses the user data, the user must notify Heka Dental of this in writing without undue delay and if so via email.

3.5. Following receipt of the notification in accordance with paragraph 3.4, Heka Dental will deny access to the passcode protected area under the user data. Access by the user will only be possible again following the user’s application to Heka Dental or through a new registration.

3.6. The user may at any time request the termination of their registration in writing, on condition that the deletion does not violate the correct fulfilment of contractual obligations. In this case, Heka Dental will delete all user data and other stored personally identifiable data from the user profile as soon as this data is no longer required.

4.2. Heka Dental gives the user a non-exclusive and non-transferable license, which may not be sub-licensed, to use the information, software and documentation made available to the user on or via Heka Dental’s website to the extent agreed on or in the case of no such agreement to the extent that the purpose of Heka Dental is to make the same available.
