Terms of Service

§ 1 Scope

(1) These Terms of Service (hereinafter "Terms") govern all contracts between Patrick Balonier, Thielemannweg 7, 99885 Ohrdruf OT Gräfenhain, Germany (hereinafter "Provider") and users of the internet platform "WOMSO Market", available at https://womsomarket.com (hereinafter "Platform").

(2) The Terms apply in the version valid at the time of conclusion of the contract. Deviating terms of the user are not recognised unless the Provider expressly agrees to their validity in writing.

(3) The Platform is aimed at players, coaches, clubs, player agencies and other professionals in the field of professional women's football ("Users").

(4) The paid Premium Listing is offered exclusively to businesses within the meaning of § 14 of the German Civil Code (BGB), in particular player agencies and self-employed football agents. By applying, the agency confirms that it is acting in the course of its commercial or self-employed professional activity.

§ 2 Contracting Party

The contracting party is Patrick Balonier (sole proprietor), Thielemannweg 7, 99885 Ohrdruf OT Gräfenhain, Germany. Email: info@womso-market.com. Further provider details are available in the Imprint.

§ 3 Description of Services

3.1 Free Use

The Provider makes publicly available, editorially curated data from professional women's football available on the Platform (in particular player profiles, club and league overviews, match reports, statistics). Read-only use of this content is free of charge and possible without registration.

3.2 Premium Listing for Agencies

Player agencies may book a paid Premium Listing. The scope of services includes in particular:

• a dedicated agency profile page with logo, contact details, website and social media links
• public attribution of represented players to the agency
• a Premium badge for visibility of verified representation
• linking from the agency profile page to all represented players

§ 4 Conclusion of Contract for Premium Listing

(1) The presentation of Premium services on the Platform does not constitute a binding offer but rather an invitation to submit an offer.

(2) The agency submits an offer to conclude the contract by transmitting the required data (agency name, contact details, list of represented players, logo) by email to info@womso-market.com or via the Platform's signup form.

(3) The contract is concluded when the Provider accepts the offer in text form (email) or commences the agreed service. The Provider reserves the right to reject applications without giving reasons.

§ 5 Pricing and Payment Terms

5.1 Price

During the launch year 2026, the price for a Premium Listing is EUR 199.00 net per year. For contracts concluded from 1 January 2027 onwards, the standard price is EUR 299.00 net per year.

5.2 Grandfathered Rate

Agencies whose contract is concluded during the calendar year 2026 retain the introductory price of EUR 199.00 net per year for any subsequent renewals, provided each renewal is ordered no later than 30 days after the previous term has expired. If there is an interruption of more than 30 days between two contract periods, the price valid at the time of the new order shall apply.

5.3 Payment Modalities

The annual fee is due as a one-time advance payment for the respective twelve-month contract term. The Provider issues the invoice electronically by email once the profile is live. It is payable by bank transfer without deduction within 14 days of the invoice date. There is no recurring charge. Each renewal requires a new order and payment.

All prices are net prices. Statutory VAT is added where applicable. Agencies based in another member state of the European Union provide their VAT identification number when applying. In that case the invoice is issued without German VAT and the recipient accounts for the tax (reverse charge). For agencies based outside the European Union, the service is not taxable in Germany.

Default interest will be calculated in accordance with statutory provisions.

§ 6 Term

(1) The contract term for a Premium Listing is twelve (12) months, beginning on the day the Provider accepts the contract.

(2) The contract ends automatically after twelve months without the need for any termination. There is no automatic renewal and no recurring charge.

(3) The Provider will send the customer a reminder by email in good time before expiry, offering the option to renew the Premium Listing for another twelve months. Renewal requires explicit confirmation and a new payment by the customer.

(4) The right to extraordinary termination for good cause remains unaffected.

§ 7 User Obligations / Content

(1) The agency warrants that it will only submit data on players whom it actually represents and for whom corresponding consent to public display exists where required.

(2) The agency is solely responsible for the accuracy, completeness and timeliness of the data and content it transmits (logo, descriptive texts, links). It shall indemnify the Provider against claims by third parties arising from a breach of these obligations.

(3) In particular, it is prohibited to submit unlawful, defamatory, discriminatory or otherwise illegal content, or to infringe trademark rights, copyrights or personal rights of third parties.

(4) The Provider reserves the right to block or remove content without prior notice if it violates these Terms or applicable law.

§ 8 Availability and Maintenance

The Provider strives for the highest possible availability of the Platform but does not owe uninterrupted accessibility. Maintenance work, technical disruptions and outages of the hosting provider may lead to temporary restrictions. Uninterrupted availability is not guaranteed.

§ 9 Liability

(1) The Provider is liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence as well as under the provisions of the Product Liability Act.

(2) For slight negligence, the Provider is only liable for the breach of an essential contractual obligation (cardinal duty), the fulfilment of which is essential for the proper performance of the contract and on whose compliance the contractual partner may regularly rely. In this case, liability is limited to typical, foreseeable damage.

(3) The Provider is liable without limitation for injury to life, body or health.

(4) Otherwise, the Provider's liability is excluded.

§ 10 No Right of Withdrawal

The Premium Listing is offered exclusively to businesses (§ 1 (4)). There is therefore no statutory right of withdrawal for consumers. Mandatory statutory rights remain unaffected.

§ 11 Data Protection

The processing of personal data is governed by the separate Privacy Policy.

§ 12 Amendments to these Terms

The Provider reserves the right to amend these Terms with effect for the future. Amendments will be communicated to the user in text form in good time before they take effect. If the user does not object to the amendments within six weeks of receipt of the notification, the amendments are deemed accepted. The right of objection and the consequences of silence will be specifically pointed out in the notification.

§ 13 Final Provisions

(1) The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies to the exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. In contracts with consumers, this choice of law applies only insofar as the protection granted is not withdrawn by mandatory provisions of the law of the state in which the consumer has their habitual residence.

(2) If the user is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contractual relationship is the registered office of the Provider.

(3) Should individual provisions of these Terms be invalid or unenforceable, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected. The invalid provision shall be replaced by the statutory regulation.
