3.1 A contract for the use of ANYDESK can be concluded both online by completing the order process and on the basis of an individual written offer. In the case of a written offer from ANYDESK to customers, this is deemed confirmed if the services offered are countersigned there without any changes; in this respect, telecommunication is sufficient to comply with the required written form (Section 127 (2) of the German Civil Code).

Unless otherwise stated, the respective offer is only valid within two weeks after receipt of the offer.

The same applies in the event that safety-relevant changes to the services or mandatory statutory provisions prevent a continuation of the contractual relationship under the previous conditions. Any advance payments shall be refunded accordingly on a pro rata basis. If the customer does not give written notice of termination within four weeks after receipt of the notice of change, the changes shall become part of the contract at the time they take effect.
