Scope
These Terms and Conditions (T&Cs) govern the use of the tool (hereinafter referred to as "online.dunt.at"), which allows users to upload, modify, and download files. Additionally, they regulate the purchase and use of digital services and software licenses via the integrated webshop. By using the tool and making purchases, you accept these T&Cs in their current version, subject to any mandatory statutory rights applicable to consumers.
-
Use of the Tool
- The tool enables users to upload files, modify them, and download the edited files.
- The use of the tool is permitted for both private and commercial purposes. In particular, any ECU modifications generated with the tool are not approved for use on public roads and are strictly limited to motorsport, testing, and dynamometer purposes.
- The user is responsible for the content of the files they upload and agrees not to upload any content that violates applicable law or public morals.
- The user agrees not to use the tool in a way that could impair its functionality, interfere with other users, or overload the operator's servers.
- The user agrees not to attempt to circumvent technical limitations, security mechanisms, usage limits, licensing restrictions, or other protective measures of the tool.

- The use of the tool is generally permitted in the country specified in the web panel up to 90% of the time. This is based on regional licensing and usage conditions. However, exceptions may apply in border regions, allowing limited use in neighboring countries. The user is responsible for ensuring compliance with the respective national regulations and laws.
- License Restrictions - The license to use the tool is limited to a single natural person or a single legal entity (company). It is strictly prohibited to integrate the tool or any part of its functionality – including, but not limited to, the API or integration with WinOLS – into other software products, platforms, or services, whether for internal or external use, resale, sublicensing, or provision to third parties. Any use of the tool beyond individual use or internal company purposes – particularly integration into third-party software, automated systems, commercial platforms, file services, or white-label solutions – is only permitted with the prior express written consent of the operator.
- Solutions and Provided Content - Solutions, modification data, patches, files, instructions, descriptions, technical information, and other content provided through the tool are intended solely for the licensed user or the licensed company. Such content may not be shared, distributed, published, resold, transferred, uploaded to other platforms, or otherwise made available to third parties without the prior express written consent of the operator.
- Protection of Solutions and Database Content - The systematic extraction, copying, reproduction, collection, downloading, scraping, reverse engineering, or creation of a separate database based on solutions, modification data, instructions, patches, technical information, or other content provided through the tool is strictly prohibited. This prohibition applies to both manual and automated collection and includes the use of such content for competing products, competing services, external databases, training datasets, artificial intelligence systems, third-party platforms, or similar services.
- Automated Access - Automated access to the tool using bots, scripts, crawlers, scrapers, automated browsers, or similar mechanisms is prohibited unless such access takes place through an interface or API expressly provided and authorized by the operator for this purpose. Usage of an authorized API remains subject to the applicable license, usage limits, and technical restrictions.
- Suspension in Case of Misuse - In the event of reasonable indications of account sharing, unauthorized distribution of solutions, automated extraction of data, circumvention of technical restrictions, attacks on the platform, or other material violations of these T&Cs, the operator may temporarily restrict or suspend access to the tool while the matter is investigated. In the event of a serious or repeated violation, the operator may terminate the affected license or account in accordance with applicable law. Mandatory statutory rights of consumers remain unaffected.

Right of Withdrawal for Consumers
- Consumers are entitled to the statutory right of withdrawal or cancellation applicable to distance contracts under Austrian and applicable European consumer protection law.

Rights to Uploaded Files
- The user retains all rights they hold to the files they upload.

-
Availability and Changes to the Tool
- The operator strives to ensure reliable availability of the tool. However, uninterrupted availability cannot be guaranteed.

- The operator may update, improve, extend, replace, or modify individual functions of the tool for technical, security, legal, compatibility, or operational reasons.
- For paid services with an ongoing contract period, changes will be made in accordance with applicable law and will not restrict mandatory consumer rights.
- The operator may discontinue individual features or the service as a whole where reasonably necessary, subject to existing contractual obligations and applicable statutory rights.

Warranty and Liability
- The tool is a technical software service. Results may depend on the uploaded data, ECU software, vehicle configuration, technical condition of the vehicle, and other factors outside the operator's control.

- The operator is not responsible for the loss of the user's original files where such loss could have been prevented by maintaining a reasonable backup. Users are therefore strongly advised to retain original and backup copies of all files.
- Any exclusion or limitation of liability contained in these T&Cs applies only to the extent permitted by applicable law. Liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited, including mandatory consumer protection and warranty rights, remains unaffected.

- Mandatory statutory rights of consumers remain unaffected by any amendment to these T&Cs.
-
Applicable Law and Final Provisions
- These T&Cs and contractual relationships with the operator are governed by Austrian law, excluding its conflict-of-law rules and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG), to the extent legally permissible.
- For consumers, this choice of law does not deprive them of mandatory consumer protection provisions that would apply under the law of the country in which they have their habitual residence.
- Any statutory rules regarding the competent court and jurisdiction for consumers remain unaffected.
- If any provision of these T&Cs is or becomes invalid or unenforceable, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
