Full active legal capacity is usually attained by becoming of legal age (the age of majority), which, pursuant to the law governing this Agreement, occurs at the age of 18. Consequently, each natural-person Customer, Participant, User and Representative shall, by having assumed the respective role (explicitly or by performing any act identifying him as the respective party), be deemed to have represented to the Supplier that he is, and, in the Representative’s case, that both he and the Customer are, at least 18 years old and capable of entering into contracts. The same representation is deemed to be made each time that the respective person causes himself (and, in the Representative’s case, when he causes the Customer) to be exposed to the Service.

8.3. The Customer must comply and shall cause each User to comply with all legal requirements applicable to their use of the Service, processing of Customer Data and other activities hereunder (including export control provisions and requirements as to the handling of Personal Data).

8.4. The Customer warrants that he will not use the Service for sending unsolicited communications or uploading, transmitting, delivering, running, possessing or storing harmful code, malware or illegal content, and must ensure that none of the Users engage in any such activity.

The Representative agrees that if the Customer does not conform to the description of section 8.1 or if this Agreement proves to be void due to the Representative’s lack of authority, he shall, if the Supplier (in its absolute discretion) so chooses and respectively informs the Representative, be deemed to have entered into the Agreement on his own behalf (i.e., in place of the Customer whom he represented or purported to represent).

10. User Account

  1.

10.4. The Supplier has no obligation to monitor or access any User Account, but may do so in cases where such action is reasonably justified (e.g., in order to prevent illegal or harmful activity, provide customer support, monitor user activity, perform its duties hereunder or comply with legal requirements).

10.5. The Supplier may, in its sole discretion, disable, close or restrict access to any User Account that is used to infringe on anyone’s Intellectual Property or proprietary or personal rights.
