10. Limitation of Liability
10.1 AGILE MOVES will be liable in accordance with the statutory provisions for any intentional acts or omissions, fraud, product liability according to the German Product Liability Act (ProdHaftG), the lack of a certain quality guaranteed by Insiders as well as for losses based on an injury to life, body or health.
10.2 If the conduct of AGILE MOVES constitutes gross negligence, then the liability will be limited to the damages considered foreseeable for contracts of that type.
10.3 In the event of simple negligence, AGILE MOVES is liable based on whatever legal reason, only if a material contractual duty has been breached, i.e. a duty the fulfillment of which makes the ordinary performance of the contract even possible and the compliance with which Customer can and should regularly rely on (e.g. duty to perform trainings according to the contract). In this case, the liability will be limited to the damages considered foreseeable for contracts of that type.
10.4 In the event AGILE MOVES is liable, Customer’s contributory fault must be reasonably taken into consideration.
10.5 To the extent that liability is limited to the damages considered foreseeable for contracts of this type in accordance with sections 10.2 and 10.3, AGILE MOVES is assuming that the sum of three thousand euros (EUR 3,000) per event of damage is sufficient, in order to cover the damages considered foreseeable for contracts of this type in this particular event of damage. Should this amount not suffice to cover the foreseeable damages, then the Customer must inform AGILE MOVES thereof in text form in order to ensure that any corresponding adjustment to the liability sums will be made by the contracting parties and AGILE MOVES can in fact cover the increased risk, if necessary, by taking out an appropriate liability insurance policy.
10.6 The liability limitation agreed to under this section 10 also applies in favor of AGILE MOVES‘s statutory representatives and vicarious agents.
10.7 The foregoing provisions under this section 10 apply mutatis mutandis, where AGILE MOVES must reimburse wasted expenditures instead of compensate damages.
10.8 Any liability claims of Customer that are more extensive than those expressly stated in this section 10 and that relate to compensatory damages and reimbursement of wasted expenditures, based on whatever legal reason, are excluded and disclaimed. The foregoing also applies, above all, to liability that is not based on fault.
