Terms of Use

General Terms and Conditions · Status: October 2026
Note: In case of any discrepancy between this English version and the German version (Nutzungsbedingungen), the German version shall prevail.

§ 1 Scope

These Terms of Use apply to all users of the Perrenix app and website, operated by the provider named in the legal notice. By registering, you accept these terms.

§ 2 Service description

Perrenix is a platform for personal self-reflection and building a digital legacy. The service includes:

§ 3 Registration and account

(1) Use requires an account with an email address and password.

(2) You are obliged to provide accurate information and to keep your password confidential.

(3) Sharing the account with third parties is not permitted.

(4) The operator reserves the right to block accounts in case of misuse.

(5) You must be at least 18 years old to use Perrenix.

§ 4 Costs

(1) Perrenix is currently free to use.

(2) Paid features only apply if you expressly book them.

§ 5 User obligations

You undertake not to store any content that is unlawful, offensive, discriminatory, or glorifies violence, that infringes the rights of third parties, or that contains malicious software. The operator is entitled to remove such content and block the account.

§ 6 Liability — Legacy function and release

Important: The following provisions concern the legacy function.

(1) Perrenix is expressly not a will and not an instrument for regulating inheritance matters. For legally valid dispositions, please consult a notary.

(2) The release of your legacy – after inactivity, or after a request with your unlock code that you do not stop within your waiting period – happens automatically and is carried out to the best of our technical ability, but without guarantee. The operator is not liable for technical malfunctions.

(3) You can set at any time that nobody sees anything (“Nobody”); then nothing is released. You can stop a pending request via the link in the email or in the app, and take back a release that happened by mistake in the app.

(4) Anyone who requests access with your unlock code and is not stopped within your waiting period gets the same access after the release as your circle of trust (“Friends & family”). Only give your code to people you trust.

(5) The operator does not check user-created content for accuracy or legal validity.

§ 7 Availability and liability

(1) The operator strives for high availability but does not guarantee uninterrupted access.

(2) The operator has unlimited liability for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, and under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz).

(3) In cases of ordinary negligence, the operator is only liable if it breaches a material contractual obligation, and then only for the foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract. Material contractual obligations are obligations whose fulfilment makes the use of Perrenix possible in the first place and on whose observance you may regularly rely. Otherwise, liability for ordinary negligence is excluded.

§ 8 Termination and data deletion

(1) You can delete your account at any time via the in-app settings. Your account and your content are then deleted immediately and irrevocably. Contributions to a shared family tree (people and changes) are excluded: they remain for the other members. Your shared places are removed.

(2) The operator may terminate extraordinarily in the event of a serious breach of these terms.

§ 9 Changes to the terms

(1) Changes to these terms will be announced by email at least 4 weeks before they take effect.

(2) Changes that are exclusively to your advantage or purely editorial (such as corrections and clarifications) apply from the announced date.

(3) All other changes only apply to you once you have expressly agreed to them. If you do not agree, the previous terms continue to apply to you. Your right to delete your account at any time (§ 8) remains unaffected.

§ 10 Applicable law

The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies. For consumers, the statutory place of jurisdiction remains unaffected. Mandatory consumer protection provisions of the country in which you have your habitual residence remain unaffected.

§ 11 Severability clause

Should individual provisions be invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected.
