6. Obligations Regarding User Content under EU Regulation
6.1. You are responsible for all activity on your Account. You may use your Account in a way that is reasonable, customary, and does not misuse the rights or legitimate interests of wflow or third parties. For example, you may not upload documents that are illegal or irrelevant, nor misuse API endpoints by sending unnecessary requests. The Account is associated with you and may not be used by, sold to, or transferred to another entity. Violation of this paragraph is considered a material breach of this Agreement.
6.2. If we discover content on your Account that violates these Terms, we may, at our discretion, remove such content or suspend your access to the Services and your User Account for a reasonable period after issuing prior notice. If a notifier, which could be you or another User (hereinafter also referred to as the "Notifier"), frequently submits obviously unfounded reports, wflow may, after issuing prior notice, suspend the processing of such reports. In making these decisions, wflow will consider the number of items of clearly illegal content or clearly baseless notifications submitted within a certain period, their proportion to the total amount of information or notifications, the severity of misuse, the nature of illegal content, the consequences of such misuse, and the intent of the service recipient, person, entity, or complainant, if it can be inferred.
6.3. wflow accepts all notifications containing information on the occurrence of user content (particularly photos, videos, review texts) within the Platform that the Notifier (e.g., User) deems illegal. The Notifier may send a notification to wflow at support@wflow.com. The notification may include at least the following information:
6.3.1. A sufficiently substantiated explanation of the reasons why the notifier claims the content in question is illegal,
6.3.2. A clear indication of the precise electronic location of the content, such as an exact URL address, and, if necessary, additional information allowing identification of the illegal content depending on its type,
6.3.3. The name or business name of the reporting person and their email address, unless you report content that you believe constitutes a criminal offense referred to in Articles 3 to 7 of Directive 2011/93/EU,
6.3.4. A statement confirming that the person or entity submitting the report believes in good faith that the information and claims contained in the notification are accurate and complete.
6.4. If the notification contains the electronic contact details of the reporting person, wflow will promptly send the Notifier a confirmation of receipt of the notification. They will also be informed of the decision regarding the information in the notification without undue delay and provided information on available remedial options related to this decision. If wflow becomes aware of illegal activities, illegal content, or content incompatible with the Terms, it may take measures to remove it or block access to it. Alternatively, wflow may impose restrictions on the User, such as assigning a lower search ranking for the content, suspending, terminating, or restricting financial payments, suspending or terminating the Service for that User, or suspending or canceling the User Account. In such cases, wflow will provide all affected Users with clear and specific reasons for such restrictions. However, if the content is assessed as compliant with legal regulations and the Terms, wflow may also decide not to act against it.
7. Order, Price Quote, and Price
7.1. The Prices listed on our website are illustrative and are not binding on wflow.
7.2. You may order Services by completing a form or requesting a phone call on our Website, or you may contact us by email at sales@wflow.com (hereinafter the "Order"). After submitting the Order, we will send you a Price Quote (the "Price Quote"), together with a contract proposal upon your request. The Price Quote will include the ordered Services and will be valid for a specified period. If you wish to accept the Price Quote, return it signed or confirm it otherwise within the specified period. The accepted Price Quote forms part of the Agreement and is governed by these Terms.
7.3. The total price you are obligated to pay to wflow depends on the total number of active users, organizations, the number of processed documents, and other units within the subscription period and is governed by the Price Quote (the "Price").
7.4. If you wish to change the number of active users/organizations, you may do so in your account or contact us by email at support@wflow.com. Rules for changes in users/organizations are listed in the current price list available at https://www.wflow.com/en/pricing, and these rules are binding.
7.5. All prices are listed without VAT, and VAT will always be added to the Price in accordance with applicable legislation.
7.6. Wflow may, at its discretion, change prices, introduce new fees, or increase prices. Any changes will be communicated to you by email or via notification in the Platform and will become effective at the beginning of the next subscription period. Section 1.4 of the Terms applies accordingly, with any termination notice to be provided to wflow before the start date of the next subscription period. An exception applies when you increase the number of users or other metrics, in which case the new prices apply to all users and other metrics purchased after the price change announcement from the moment of purchase, not from the next subscription period.
7.7. In addition to the previous provisions, the Price will automatically increase each year on March 1 or another date determined by wflow by the inflation rate expressed as the increase in the average annual consumer price index for the past calendar year announced by the Czech Statistical Office. If the Czech Statistical Office ceases to announce this figure, the index that replaces it or most closely resembles it will be used. The increase will be rounded up to the nearest whole ten Czech crowns. The increase will only apply if the inflation rate exceeds 5% since the last price increase under this paragraph.
8. Payments
8.1. The Price may include a certain number of processed documents/timestamps/organizations/users/storage space/other units for the subscription period. You are obligated to pay the subscription even if you do not use all units. In such cases, unused units expire without compensation. If the Agreement is terminated, the price for unused units is not refunded.
8.2. If you exceed the agreed number of units in any period, you will pay an excess usage fee. Excess usage fees are payable together with the next invoice; however, wflow may bill them separately at any time.
8.3. The Agreement includes an arrangement for the selected subscription period. Unless expressly agreed otherwise, the subscription is due in advance based on an invoice issued before or at the beginning of each subscription period for Services provided in that period.
8.4. If you are in arrears with payment of any due amount, wflow may charge you a contractual penalty of 0.05% of the due amount for each commenced day of delay.
9. Security
9.1. Any database consisting of data entered by the Customer while using the provided Services is the Customer’s property, and the Customer is responsible for its content (the "Data"). The Platform's purpose is solely to facilitate the Customer's use of the Data, and wflow is not liable for any damages resulting from any breach of the Data's security or integrity by the Customer.
9.2. wflow will make reasonable efforts to secure the Data against loss, disruption, or unauthorized access in accordance with standard practice. Data security is implemented at the Platform level using standard protection measures (e.g., server communication is encrypted with an SSL security certificate, application login is via the OAuth 2.0 protocol, data on servers is encrypted with the AES 256-bit algorithm). The Platform is hosted with a leading B2B infrastructure service provider, and we take necessary measures to minimize the risk of any breach of Data security or integrity.
9.3. Since the Platform is a cloud tool designed, among other things, for data processing, wflow may process personal data of third parties uploaded or collected by the Customer on the Platform ("Personal Data") as a processor for the Customer while fulfilling the Agreement. This processing is governed by the data processing agreement, the content of which forms Annex No. 1 to these Terms, becoming an integral part of the Agreement. You are responsible for ensuring that you are authorized to transfer all your data to wflow and that using and processing it for providing the Service does not infringe upon the rights of third parties, especially intellectual property rights, privacy rights, or legal obligations. You must inform individuals whose personal or other data you transfer to wflow for the purpose of providing the Service about such a transfer to wflow as the processor or, if necessary, obtain consent to such transfer of personal data.
10. Intellectual Property

10.2. You also agree not to attempt reverse engineering or any other access
to the source code of any Intellectual Property. Regardless of this restriction, you may not circumvent technical protections or other limitations associated with the Platform or Services, except where expressly permitted by applicable law. You may not use Intellectual Property to create any software similar to the Services. You may not bypass any technological protection measures in the Services and/or Platform or related protective measures, nor may you allow access to the Services by unauthorized third-party applications.
10.3. If you provide us with feedback on the Services, such as recommendations for improvements or features, such feedback will not be considered confidential or proprietary, and the implementation of such feedback will be the property of wflow and may become part of our Intellectual Property without compensation to you.

11.4. If the recipient is required to disclose Confidential Information due to a judicial or administrative proceeding or order, they are obligated to provide the other party with sufficient notice and reasonable assistance as soon as possible, prior to any such disclosure, to enable the other party to contest such a requirement or order, should they wish to do so.

If the Customer is a sub-processor, they confirm having the data controller's permission to involve wflow as a sub-processor. Wflow will inform the Customer at least thirty (30) days before adding or replacing sub-processors.

In such cases, wflow and the Customer will cooperate in good faith to resolve the objection reasons. If wflow deems the objections valid, it will not involve the sub-processor in Processing or may refrain from providing a specific Service type or terminate the contractual relationship with the Customer to the extent related to the Processing.

If wflow were required to compensate for any damage, the total compensation would be limited as stated in the Terms.
