Part A – General Terms and Conditions and EULA

Scope: Consumers within the meaning of Section 13 of the German Civil Code (BGB)

between elixxier Software GmbH (hereinafter: elixxier) and the purchaser (hereinafter: Consumer)

The following terms and conditions govern all business transactions with consumers pursuant to Section 13 of the German Civil Code (BGB). For businesses, schools, universities, and organizations (Section 14 BGB), the B2B License Terms in Part B shall additionally apply and shall prevail in the event of any conflict.

All deliveries, services, and offers by elixxier Software GmbH are made exclusively on the basis of these General Terms and Conditions (GTC), as well as the applicable End User License Agreement (EULA, see Section II below), insofar as software and/or audio/video content is delivered. They apply to all orders by consumers and are acknowledged by the consumer with each order. Deviating terms and conditions require written confirmation by elixxier Software GmbH to be effective.

Section I – General Terms and Conditions

Subject matter of the contract when purchasing software on physical media or as a download
1. The consumer acquires the software specified in the order – i.e. the program including executable object code and the manual/quick start guide in digital form. The following provisions also apply to software add-ons and updates, avatars integrated into the program, lighting setup and workshop add-on programs. Source code is not included in delivery.
2. The specifications of the software delivered by elixxier are determined by the product description valid at the time of dispatch/the opening of the download option and made available to the consumer prior to conclusion of the contract, which is also described in the manual/quick start guide.
3. For the installation of the software, elixxier refers to the installation instructions described in the manual/quick start guide, in particular the system environment that must be present on the consumer’s computer.
Conclusion of contract
1. The presentation of products on the elixxier website (www.elixxier.com) does not constitute a legally binding offer, but rather a non-binding invitation to the consumer to submit a purchase offer. The contract may be concluded in two ways:
  a) Online order: The consumer’s order (binding offer) is submitted by sending the online order form via the shopping cart. Upon receipt, elixxier will promptly confirm the order by email (order confirmation), documenting the details of the order. This order confirmation does not yet constitute acceptance of the offer. The contract is only concluded upon transfer of the license to the consumer, i.e. upon provision of the license key or activation data.
  
  b) Individual offer: elixxier may submit a written or text-form offer to the Customer (e.g. by email as a PDF). This offer is binding unless stated otherwise therein and may be accepted by the Customer within the period specified in the offer. Acceptance shall be made in text form (email suffices). The contract is concluded upon receipt of the acceptance by elixxier.
  
  elixxier is entitled to accept purchase offers by the consumer within 10 days of receipt.
2. Should a new, improved version of a product become available during the period between receipt of the consumer’s offer and acceptance by elixxier, elixxier shall be entitled to provide such newer version, provided that the functionality and performance of the newer product are essentially identical and the use of the new product is reasonable for the consumer.
3. The contract is concluded in the German language with:
  elixxier Software GmbH
  Hohnerstraße 25
  D-70469 Stuttgart, Germany
  Phone: +49 711 2172 805-0
  Email: info@elixxier.com
  Web: www.elixxier.com
Purchase price and payment terms
1. The purchase price payable by the consumer is stated in the order confirmation or the individual offer. All prices include statutory value-added tax (VAT). In the case of physical shipment, prices include costs for transport and packaging (shipping costs).
2. Payments by the consumer shall be made in advance, in accordance with the payment methods accepted by elixxier (bank transfer, instant transfer, PayPal, credit card), unless otherwise agreed. elixxier reserves the right, in the event of default in payment, to withhold deliveries, partial deliveries, and/or services until full payment has been received, as well as to claim statutory default interest and compensation for further damages caused by default. No cash discount is granted.
3. The consumer may only exercise a right of retention with respect to counterclaims arising from the same contractual relationship. The consumer may only set off claims that have been finally adjudicated or are undisputed.
Delivery and performance
1. The delivery times or provision periods stated by elixxier shall apply.
2. The software is generally provided as a download. elixxier’s delivery obligation is fulfilled when the license key or activation data has been transmitted to the consumer in text form (e.g. by email) and the software is available for download. In the case of delivery on physical data carriers, the statutory provisions regarding delivery of goods shall additionally apply.
3. Should the ordered license not be available for reasons not attributable to elixxier, elixxier may withdraw from the contract. In such case, elixxier will inform the consumer without delay and, where applicable, suggest a comparable alternative. If no comparable alternative is available or the consumer does not wish to receive one, elixxier will promptly refund any consideration already rendered.
4. If the consumer is in default of acceptance, fails to perform a required act of cooperation, or if provision is delayed for other reasons attributable to the consumer, elixxier shall be entitled to claim compensation for the resulting damage, including additional expenses.
Retention of usage rights
1. Usage rights to the software shall only pass from elixxier to the consumer upon full and unconditional payment of the purchase price. In the case of delivery on physical data carriers, title to such carriers shall likewise only pass upon full payment.
2. The assertion of the retention shall not constitute withdrawal from the contract.
Right of withdrawal
1. The withdrawal policy can be found at: https://www.elixxier.com/de/widerruf/
Consumer’s obligations to cooperate and provide information
1. Consumers are recommended to inform themselves about the essential functional features of the products on the corresponding product detail pages at www.elixxier.com; in case of doubt, consumers should seek advice from elixxier staff or qualified third parties prior to concluding the contract.
2. The setup of a functional system environment – adequately dimensioned also taking into account the additional demands of the contractual items – for the consumer’s computer for use of the contractual items, as well as online access for verification/authentication, is the sole responsibility of the consumer.
3. Consumers are recommended to observe the instructions provided by elixxier in the manual/quick start guide for installation and operation of the software; consumers can obtain current information via the online help pages.
4. Insofar as elixxier has further obligations beyond the provision of the contractual items, the consumer shall cooperate to the necessary and reasonable extent, e.g. by providing data and telecommunications equipment.
5. The consumer is responsible for regularly backing up the data on their computer system against data loss.
Consumer’s usage rights
The consumer’s usage rights to the software are governed by the End User License Agreement (EULA), which is attached as Section II of this Part.
Verification rights, online authentication
To protect its copyright in the purchased software, elixxier performs an encrypted online verification and activation after the program is installed on the consumer’s computer system. It is therefore imperative that the computer system can access the internet in close temporal proximity to the installation process and that the consumer consents to interactive verification of the software. Verification will also be performed again if essential hardware components of the consumer’s computer are replaced or if add-ons are installed.

Should verification not be possible due to the computer’s lack of internet access, functional restrictions may occur. elixxier assumes no responsibility for this.

No personal data is transmitted from the consumer’s computer to elixxier that is not directly related to the verification and activation of the program.
Claims for defects / warranty
1. In the event of a defect in the software, elixxier is initially entitled, within the framework of statutory provisions, to remedy the defect or provide a replacement delivery. For this purpose, elixxier shall, at its discretion, provide the consumer with a new, defect-free software version or remedy the defect by replacement delivery.
2. The consumer is obligated to accept a new software version, provided the contractual scope of functionality is maintained and acceptance does not lead to significant disadvantages.
3. In the case of immaterial defects, the right to withdraw or to claim damages is excluded, unless the damage relates to injury to life, body, or health, is based on a negligent breach of duty by elixxier, or on an intentional or negligent breach of duty by legal representatives or vicarious agents. The right to assert a reduction in price remains unaffected. Immaterial defects are minor errors that have no decisive impact on the usability of the software. Such errors will be remedied in the course of normal software development in one of the subsequent releases; the entitlement to receive such a release is governed by the End User License Agreement (EULA) regarding updates and upgrades.
4. The consumer bears the burden of proof that the defect is attributable to elixxier, insofar as the defect is based on the consumer having modified, improperly used, or repaired the product without the consent of elixxier, or the product was not installed, processed, operated, or maintained in accordance with elixxier’s instructions.
5. The warranty period for consumers is two years from delivery of the contractual item. For businesses, the warranty period is one year from delivery. Delivery is deemed to have occurred upon transmission of the license key or activation data to the consumer.
6. The warranty for software provided free of charge (e.g. trial software or software provided as part of software maintenance) is governed by the applicable statutory provisions.
7. elixxier does not provide any guarantees in the legal sense to the consumer, unless expressly agreed otherwise. Manufacturer guarantees remain unaffected.
Liability
1. elixxier is liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence, as well as for injury to life, body, or health.
2. In cases of slight negligence, elixxier is only liable for breaches of material contractual obligations (cardinal obligations) and only up to the amount of foreseeable, contract-typical damage.
3. Before using software distributed by elixxier and new releases, the installation instructions in the manual/quick start guide or the online help pages must be observed, and a data backup must be performed in advance to avoid data loss.
4. Liability for data loss is limited to the typical recovery costs that would have been incurred had the consumer performed proper daily data backups.
5. Liability under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz) remains unaffected.
6. Any further liability is excluded to the extent permitted by law.
Services
Services are provided by elixxier or its vicarious agents. These are services that are not provided as part of contractual fulfillment and in particular not as part of the warranty. Services may also be provided by telephone or via the internet. For third-party products, exclusively the terms and conditions of the respective manufacturer apply.

Support covers answering questions about the operation of the software as well as the receipt and processing of bug reports. Support is provided exclusively by email on a best-effort basis.

Not covered by support are in particular: installation and setup assistance, support for the consumer’s system environment (e.g. hardware, network, drivers, operating system), training, custom modifications, and the resolution of problems attributable to non-compliance with system requirements.
Data protection
All information on data protection can be found at: https://www.elixxier.com/de/datenschutzerklaerung/
Final provisions
1. Should any provision of the contract, the license agreement, or any supplementary agreement to the contract be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected. Invalid provisions shall be replaced by the corresponding statutory provision.
2. The parties agree that the law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to all legal relationships arising from this contractual relationship. The application of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) is expressly excluded.
3. Only the German version of these General Terms and Conditions is binding. Any translation into another language is provided for informational purposes only.

As of: February 2026

Section II – End User License Agreement (EULA)

§ 1 Scope of usage rights (purchase agreement)

(1) The number and scope of usage rights to be transferred are determined by the respective purchase agreement with elixxier Software GmbH – hereinafter elixxier – as well as the General Terms and Conditions/EULA. The following provisions also apply to software add-ons and updates, avatars integrated into the program, lighting setup and workshop add-on programs. The consumer acquires the simple, non-exclusive right to use the software that is the subject of the contract, i.e. to load it into the working memory of one computer and one mobile computer (e.g. notebook) to the extent contractually agreed, and to install it permanently on mass storage devices to the extent agreed. No further usage rights are transferred. elixxier points out that, according to the current state of technology, it is not possible to create computer software that works without errors in all applications and hardware combinations. The subject matter of the contract is therefore only software that is fundamentally usable within the meaning of the program description and the operating manual.

Note: Different usage and activation rules apply to businesses, schools, universities, and organizations (Section 14 BGB) in accordance with the B2B License Terms (Part B).

(2) The usage rights are transferred for an unlimited period of time, subject to the full and unconditional payment of the remuneration payable under the contract for the provision of the software. Until such time, use by the consumer is tolerated by elixxier and may be terminated at any time after setting a deadline with a threat of rejection.

(3) The software may be passed on and/or sold within the framework of these End User License Terms. In such case, the consumer is obligated to hand over the original data carriers and all backup copies as well as the manual/quick start guide to the acquirer/transferee and to irretrievably delete the software from their hardware. Furthermore, the consumer is obligated to transmit these End User License Terms to the third party.

(4) The software may not be temporarily made available to third parties by means of ASP (Application Service Provider) or in any other manner for commercial use. No sublicenses may be granted.

(5) In the event of the exercise of a statutory right of withdrawal, the consumer is obligated, in addition to any existing obligations to return received services, to irretrievably delete any already installed software from their hardware.

(6) The online community exchange platform is not part of these End User License Terms. Separate terms and conditions, data protection, and user terms must be accepted upon registration for use.

§ 2 Verification rights, online authentication

To protect its copyright in the purchased software, elixxier performs an encrypted online verification and activation after the program is installed on the consumer’s computer system. It is therefore imperative that the computer system can access the internet in close temporal proximity to the installation process and that the consumer consents to interactive verification of the software.

Verification will also be performed again if essential hardware components of the consumer’s computer are replaced or if add-ons are installed.

Should verification not be possible due to the computer’s lack of internet access, functional restrictions may occur. elixxier assumes no responsibility for this.

No personal data is transmitted from the consumer’s computer to elixxier that is not directly related to the verification and activation of the program.

§ 3 Provisions for updates and upgrades

(1) From software version 3 onwards: Upon purchase of the software, the customer is entitled to all updates (bug fixes, minor improvements) and upgrades (new features, major enhancements) published by elixxier for a period of one year from the date of purchase. However, no entitlement exists to the publication of updates or upgrades at a specific time or with a specific scope of functionality. The decision regarding the development, frequency, and content of such publications lies solely at elixxier’s discretion.

(2) After the expiration of this one-year period, the customer may renew the right to further updates and upgrades by purchasing a paid extension in the customer account. If the customer decides against renewal, their usage right for the version of the software installed at the time of expiry (last version) shall remain unaffected. They may continue to use this version without time limitation but will not receive any further updates or upgrades.

(3) The usage right to the previous software that is technically replaced by installed updates or upgrades shall expire within two weeks after the consumer puts the new software into productive use, but no later than three calendar months after the provision of the new software. The consumer is entitled to make one copy of the software for archiving or backup purposes.

(4) If the consumer passes on or sells the software to third parties, this transaction must be reported to elixxier, stating the name and address of the third party. The third party shall only be entitled to updates and upgrades if the transfer of the software has been duly registered with elixxier and the period for receiving updates/upgrades has not yet expired or a valid extension is in place.

§ 4 Provisions for trial software

(1) The consumer is granted a simple, spatially unlimited usage right for the software, limited in time to the duration of the agreed trial period. The right only includes the authorization to load the software onto one computer and to use it. No other usage right is transferred.

(2) The consumer is not entitled to transfer the usage right to third parties or to grant them corresponding usage rights without prior consent from elixxier.

(3) The consumer agrees not to make the software and documentation available to third parties, either in original or in the form of complete or partial copies, without the express consent of elixxier.

(4) The purpose of the rights transfer is to enable the consumer to test the software for a limited period of time.

(5) After expiry of this period, the consumer is obligated to promptly delete the trial version together with all copies, unless the consumer has acquired further usage rights to the software at that time.

(6) elixxier may extend the granted usage right at any time or terminate it before expiry of the period.

(7) elixxier reserves the right to limit or expand the trial version in its scope and functionality.

§ 5 Evaluation licenses

elixxier does not grant evaluation licenses.

§ 6 Decompilation and software modifications

(1) The software is provided with copy protection. The removal of copy protection or similar protection routines is only permissible if the protection mechanism impairs or prevents undisturbed use of the software. The consumer bears the burden of proof for any impairment or prevention of undisturbed usability caused by the protection mechanism. The consumer must notify elixxier of any software modifications made and any malfunction symptoms that have occurred by means of a detailed explanation in text form (Section 126b BGB).

(2) The corresponding actions under paragraph 1 may only be entrusted to commercially operating third parties who are in a potential competitive relationship with elixxier if elixxier is unwilling or unable to perform the desired software modifications or bug fixes for a reasonable fee. elixxier must be granted a sufficient period to review the assumption of the assignment, and the name of the third party must be communicated.

(3) If decompilation is to be carried out, the consumer must first request the necessary information from elixxier.

(4) Copyright notices, serial numbers, and other features serving to identify the software must under no circumstances be removed or altered.

§ 7 AI protection and text and data mining

(1) The use of the software, the included content (e.g. presets, models, textures, HDRIs, templates), or the work results created with the software for the training, fine-tuning, testing, or evaluation of AI models, as well as for text and data mining, is prohibited. This also applies to uploads to AI services if such use is thereby facilitated.

(2) elixxier hereby declares its reservation of rights pursuant to Section 44b (3) of the German Copyright Act (UrhG).

§ 8 Warranty

(1) elixxier warrants that the software, when used in accordance with the contract, substantially conforms to the product description. No guarantee is given that the software operates free of errors, functions in all hardware and software combinations, or is suitable for any specific purpose of the consumer.

(2) In the case of defects, the warranty provisions in the General Terms and Conditions (Section I), in particular clause 10, shall apply.

(3) elixxier does not provide any guarantees in the legal sense to the consumer, unless expressly agreed otherwise.

§ 9 Final provisions

(1) The parties agree that the law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to all legal relationships arising from the EULA. The application of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) is expressly excluded.

(2) Should any provision of the EULA be or become invalid, the validity of the EULA as a whole shall not be affected.

(3) Only the German version of the EULA is legally valid and binding. Any translation into another language is provided for informational purposes only.

If the Customer exceeds the criteria, a suitable license (e.g. Enterprise) must be acquired from that point onward.

5. Installation, activation, hardware change

5.1 The Customer is obligated to protect license data, activation keys, and access credentials from unauthorized access.

5.2 elixxier may use online verification for license checking and may implement measures to prevent abusive multiple activations.

5.3 Hardware change: The transfer of a license to a replacement device is permissible, but requires prior deactivation on the original device. If deactivation is technically impossible (e.g. in case of device defect or theft), elixxier can manually reset the activation upon request from the Customer.
