Terms of Use

Effective date: May 2026

1. Scope

These Terms of Use govern access to and use of the Klokk service provided at klokk.me (the "Service"), operated by Steffen Fahrenbach, c/o Postflex #9683, Emsdettener Str. 10, 48268 Greven, Germany ("Provider", "we", "us").

By accessing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Description of Service

Klokk is a self-hosted time tracking application. The Provider makes the software and its Docker images available subject to these Terms. Access limits (such as the number of user accounts per installation), included features, and pricing tiers may vary and are subject to change at any time — for example through promotional offers, partner programmes, or branding and white-label arrangements.

The current limits and available tiers are published on klokk.me and may be updated without prior notice. The Service is provided as-is. No guaranteed uptime, availability, or specific feature set is promised.

3. Permitted Use

You may use the Service solely for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You agree not to:

  • Use the Service for any unlawful, fraudulent, or harmful purpose.
  • Attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the Service or its infrastructure.
  • Interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Service.
  • Reverse-engineer, decompile, or otherwise attempt to extract proprietary source code (beyond what is already publicly available).
  • Use the Service to transmit malware, spam, or any other malicious content.

4. Intellectual Property

The Klokk software is proprietary. The Provider retains all intellectual property rights in and to the Service, including but not limited to the source code, design, trademarks, and documentation. Nothing in these Terms transfers any ownership rights to you.

You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the Service strictly in accordance with these Terms.

5. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. The Provider does not warrant that:

  • the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure at all times;
  • any defects will be corrected;
  • the Service is fit for any particular purpose.

Use of the Service is at your own risk.

6. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Provider shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of data, loss of profits, or business interruption, arising from your use of or inability to use the Service.

The Provider's total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall not exceed the amount paid by you to the Provider in the twelve months preceding the claim. As the Service is currently provided free of charge, this amount is zero.

7. Availability and Changes

The Provider reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service (or any part thereof) at any time, with or without notice. The Provider also reserves the right to amend these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Service after changes have been published constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

Significant changes will be announced on klokk.me where reasonably practicable.

8. Data Protection

The processing of personal data in connection with the Service is governed by our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms by reference.

9. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding its conflict-of-law provisions. The UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) does not apply.

For users who are consumers within the EU, mandatory consumer protection provisions of the country in which the consumer resides remain unaffected.
