1. Scope and Provider
1.1 These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern the subscription to and use of the daily premium newsletter “collectorscarworld DayBreak” (the “Newsletter”).
1.2 The Newsletter is published by Classic Lifestyle Media Group GmbH, Max-Keith-Str. 66, 45136 Essen/Germany, registered with the commercial register of the Amtsgericht Essen under HRB 27734, VAT ID DE 184 586 949, represented by Dr. Kay Hafner (the “Publisher”), through its brand collectorscarworld.
1.3 Contact: info@collectorscarworld.com
1.4 By completing the order process, the subscriber (“Subscriber”) accepts these Terms. Deviating terms of the Subscriber do not apply unless the Publisher expressly agrees in writing.
2. Description of the Service
2.1 The Newsletter is a premium editorial publication about classic and collectible cars, the collector car market, lifestyle and related topics. It is intended to be delivered by e-mail on a daily basis.
2.2 The Newsletter is provided exclusively as digital content for personal use.
3. Conclusion of Contract
3.1 The presentation of the Newsletter on the website is not a binding offer. By submitting the order, the Subscriber makes a binding offer to conclude a subscription contract.
3.2 The contract is concluded when the Publisher confirms the order by e-mail or begins delivery of the Newsletter, whichever occurs first.
3.3 The Subscriber must provide a valid e-mail address and correct billing information (country, private or business, payment method), and must keep them up to date.
3.4 The contract language is English. The contract text is not stored by the Publisher in a manner accessible to the Subscriber; the Subscriber is advised to save or print these Terms and the order confirmation.
4. Price and Payment
4.1 The subscription fee is EUR 6.50 per month. Unless stated otherwise at checkout, the price includes any applicable statutory value added tax.
4.2 The fee is charged in advance. Payment is processed by the third-party payment service provider Stripe (Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd. or its affiliates). Stripe’s own terms and privacy policy apply to the payment process.
4.3 The Subscriber must ensure that the chosen payment method is valid and sufficiently funded. If a payment fails or is reversed for reasons not attributable to the Publisher, the Publisher may suspend delivery until the outstanding amount is paid, may charge reasonable bank fees incurred, and may terminate the contract for good cause after reasonable notice.
4.4 Invoices are provided electronically by e-mail or via the payment provider. The Publisher and the payment provider calculate taxes based on the information available to them, including the Subscriber’s stated billing country.
4.5 The Publisher cannot guarantee that the tax treatment applied to the invoice in the Subscriber’s country of residence is correct or complete, nor that the payment and the related forms and documents are executed correctly by the service provider Stripe. The Subscriber remains responsible for his or her own tax and accounting obligations. Statutory rights that cannot be excluded remain unaffected.
4.6 Price changes for the running term are excluded. For any renewal term the Publisher may adjust the fee by giving at least two (2) months’ notice by e-mail before the end of the current term. If the Subscriber does not agree, he or she may terminate in accordance with Section 5.
5. Term, Automatic Renewal and Cancellation
5.1 The subscription has a minimum fixed term of six (6) months, beginning on the date of the first delivery or the first successful payment, whichever is earlier. The subscription is concluded for this fixed minimum term and cannot be terminated ordinarily before it ends, subject to Section 5.6 and Section 6.4.
5.2 The subscription renews automatically for a further period of six (6) months unless it is cancelled at least one (1) month before the end of the current term.
5.3 Cancellation can be made by e-mail or through the cancellation function provided on the website and in the Subscriber’s account. Where required by law, the Publisher provides an easily accessible cancellation button, which the Subscriber may use at any time. The Publisher will confirm receipt of the cancellation without undue delay.
5.4 The right of both parties to terminate for good cause remains unaffected. Good cause exists in particular where the Subscriber is in default with payments, misuses the Newsletter, or violates Section 8.
5.5 Where mandatory consumer protection law in the Subscriber’s country provides for shorter renewal periods or different notice periods, those mandatory provisions apply in place of Sections 5.2, 5.3 and 5.6 to the extent required.
5.6 The Subscriber commits to the full minimum term of six (6) months, and the fees for the entire term (6 x EUR 6.50 = EUR 39.00) are owed regardless of any earlier cancellation. Outside the period described in Section 6.4, a cancellation during the minimum term takes effect only at the end of that term; there is no entitlement to immediate termination, to a proportionate reduction of the fee or to a refund of fees already paid for the remaining months. Fees for months not yet paid remain due on their regular payment dates. Statutory rights that cannot be excluded, in particular the right to terminate for good cause, remain unaffected.
6. Right of Withdrawal for Consumers
6.1 If the Subscriber is a consumer, he or she has the right to withdraw from the contract within fourteen (14) days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period begins on the day the contract is concluded.
6.2 To exercise the right of withdrawal, the Subscriber must inform the Publisher by email to info@collectorscarworld.com of the decision to withdraw by a clear statement. A model withdrawal form may be used but is not mandatory.
6.3 If the Subscriber requests that delivery begin before the withdrawal period has expired, he or she must pay a proportionate amount for the Newsletters already delivered up to the time of withdrawal. The right of withdrawal expires prematurely once the Publisher has fully performed the service and delivery began with the Subscriber’s express prior consent and acknowledgement that the right of withdrawal is lost on full performance.
6.4 Extraordinary right of termination: Within the first fourteen (14) days after the start of the subscription (the day of the first delivery or the first successful payment, whichever is earlier), the Subscriber may terminate the contract with immediate effect by a clear statement in text form (e.g. by e-mail). For consumers this period and the effects described in Sections 6.1 to 6.3 apply; for all other Subscribers the right applies to the same extent, but without a refund beyond Section 6.3. After these fourteen (14) days the extraordinary right of termination ends and Section 5.6 applies without exception.
7. Nature of the Content – No Advice, No Guarantee
7.1 The content of the Newsletter is non-binding and provided solely for information and entertainment purposes.
7.2 The content does not constitute investment, financial, tax, legal, insurance, valuation, technical or any other professional advice, nor a recommendation or offer to buy, sell or hold any vehicle, asset or financial product. Prices, market values, auction results and trends are for general information only. Collector vehicles can lose value, and the Subscriber acts at his or her own risk and should seek independent professional advice before making decisions.
7.3 The Publisher takes care in researching and preparing the content but does not assume any liability for the accuracy, completeness, timeliness or suitability of the content, including information provided by third parties or linked external sources.
8. Intellectual Property and Permitted Use
8.1 All content of the Newsletter, including texts, images, layout, logos and the names “collectorscarworld” and “DayBreak”, is protected by copyright and other intellectual property rights belonging to the Publisher or its licensors and contributors.
8.2 The Subscriber receives a simple, non-transferable right to use the Newsletter for personal, non-commercial purposes. Without prior written consent, the Subscriber may not forward the Newsletter in bulk, publish, share via public channels, resell, systematically copy, scrape or use it for AI training, or otherwise exploit it commercially. Sharing of short quotations with attribution within the limits of applicable law remains unaffected.
8.3 The Subscriber may not share access credentials, if any, with third parties.
9. Delivery; No Entitlement to Daily Issues
9.1 The Publisher aims to deliver the Newsletter every day, but there is no entitlement to delivery on each and every day. The Publisher may omit, delay or combine issues, for example on public holidays, during editorial breaks, or for editorial reasons, provided the overall character of the service is maintained.
9.2 If the production or dispatch of an issue is prevented or delayed by technical problems, failures of infrastructure or e-mail service providers, cyber attacks, force majeure or other circumstances beyond the Publisher’s reasonable control, there is no entitlement to delivery of that issue or to a later supply. Statutory rights of the Subscriber, in particular in case of lasting or substantial non-performance, remain unaffected. Where more than a minor number of issues is omitted in a billing month for reasons within the Publisher’s responsibility, the Publisher will grant a reasonable credit or extension of the subscription.
9.3 Delivery is made to the e-mail address provided by the Subscriber. Successful receipt depends on the Subscriber’s individual technical setup, including e-mail provider, spam and security filters, mailbox capacity, device and internet connection. The Publisher and the brand collectorscarworld have no influence on these factors and assume no liability for non-delivery, delayed delivery, filtering into spam folders, or display errors of the e-mails. Subscribers should add the sender address to their address book or safe sender list.
10. Liability
10.1 The Publisher is liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, under the Product Liability Act, and where a guarantee has been expressly given.
10.2 In case of slightly negligent breach of an essential contractual obligation (an obligation whose fulfilment enables the proper performance of the contract and on which the Subscriber regularly relies), liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract. In all other cases of slight negligence, liability is excluded.
10.3 Section 10.2 applies accordingly to the liability of the Publisher’s legal representatives, employees and agents. In particular, and subject to Sections 10.1 and 10.2, the Publisher assumes no liability for the accuracy of the content and for the correct delivery of the e-mails as described in Sections 7 and 9.
10.4 The Publisher is not responsible for the services, availability or conduct of third-party providers such as Stripe, e-mail providers or internet access providers.
11. Data Protection
11.1 The Publisher processes personal data of the Subscriber (such as name, e-mail address, billing and payment-related data) to perform the contract, deliver the Newsletter, process payments and comply with legal obligations, in accordance with applicable data protection law, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
11.2 Payment data is processed by Stripe as an independent controller or processor as described in its documentation. Further information, including on the Subscriber’s rights, is set out in the Privacy Policy at [link].
11.3 Where e-mail open or click tracking is used, this is done only as permitted by law and described in the Privacy Policy.
12. Changes to the Service and to These Terms
12.1 The Publisher may change the scope, format, sending time and design of the Newsletter, provided the change is reasonable for the Subscriber and the essential character of the service is retained.
12.2 The Publisher may amend these Terms for valid reasons, such as changes in law, case law, or the service. Amendments will be notified by e-mail at least four (4) weeks before taking effect. They are deemed accepted unless the Subscriber objects in text form before the effective date; the notice will point out this consequence. In case of objection, the Subscriber may terminate the subscription effective on the date the amendment would have taken effect, and the contract continues under the previous Terms until then.
13. Taxes, Sanctions and Availability
13.1 The Newsletter is offered to Subscribers in countries where the Publisher may lawfully supply it. The Publisher may decline orders or terminate subscriptions where required by law, including sanctions or export control rules.
13.2 Any import duties, local levies or similar charges, and any charges by the Subscriber’s bank or card issuer, are borne by the Subscriber, unless mandatory law provides otherwise.
14. Governing Law, Jurisdiction and Dispute Resolution
14.1 These Terms and the contract are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. For consumers, this choice of law applies only to the extent that it does not deprive the Subscriber of mandatory consumer protection provisions of the country of his or her habitual residence.
14.2 If the Subscriber is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the place of jurisdiction is the registered office of the Publisher. Mandatory statutory places of jurisdiction for consumers remain unaffected.
14.3 The Publisher is neither obliged nor willing to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board, unless required by law. [Adjust to your actual position.]
15. Severability and Final Provisions
15.1 Should any provision of these Terms be or become invalid or unenforceable, the validity of the remaining provisions remains unaffected. The statutory provisions replace the invalid provision.
15.2 Changes or additions to the contract should be made in text form. Mandatory statutory provisions remain unaffected.
15.3 Headings are for convenience only and have no legal effect.
