These terms were written in German. In the case of conflicts between any translated version of these Terms and the German version, the German version controls.
The following Terms of Use apply to all agreements between the user (“you” or “your”) on the one hand and the takethechance OG (below "TTC", „we“, “us” or “our”) on the other hand, by using the online platform and the apps „takethechance“ (below abbreviated with „platform“). Each time you use the platform, you agree to be bound by the latest version of these Terms. Differing, conflicting or additional Terms and Conditions/Terms of Use of the user will not form an integrated part of the contact, unless they have been affirmed explicitly in writing by TTC. Hereby we explicitly disagree to Terms and Conditions/Terms of Use from the user’s side. You will be expressly notified about possible future changes of these Terms. With the continued use of the services of the platform you agree to the subsequent Terms of Use and their underlying changes.
We, the takethechance OG, with our seat in Hartkirchen and place of business at Oed in Bergen 7, 4081 Hartkirchen, Austria), are responsible for the platform. The app can be downloaded via the appropriate online store (especially iTunes or Google Play). The Terms and Conditions underlying the use of these online stores is not subject to TTC; hence we have no influence on these terms.
We provide a platform for the purpose of dating and getting to know other people. Based on the default settings of the user, the platform choses potential partners (so-called „Matches“) and proposes them to the user.
Just as in real life it is the first fleeting impression which matters. The matches get the chance to contact each other and for this purpose they can upload photos, texts, graphics, videos etc. („content“) and submit them to others users or „Matches“. Thereby we just assume the role of a technical distributor/host, which does not influence or supervise the content distributed by you. You are liable for the content. We are only liable in accordance with § 16 Abs 1 of the Austrian E-Commerce law (ECG), when we are getting aware of illegal content and do not remove or block it as soon as we obtain knowledge of such contents. If you believe that a specific content infringes rights, please inform us via office@takethechance.at.
The use of the dating platform, which does not serve exclusively private purposes, is prohibited. Therefore it is especially forbidden that the platform and its channels are used for the following purposes:
organisation of competitions (prize games) or lotteries
Your use of the platform must comply with all applicable laws and third-party rights. Therefore you especially have to refrain from using the services
by impersonating any person or entity
in order to request money from other users
to affect the lifestyle of third parties (stalking)
to commit illegal acts
to transmit defective or damaging content
to disguise advertising measures
by using automated systems
for commercial purposes and
for medical or psychological counselling
