Terms and conditions

Most recent update: October 4, 2025

We welcome you (“you” or the “user”) as a visitor or user, and we encourage you to join our community of small business owners. Before you participate, however, we ask that you please read and agree to the following terms of use.

We reserve the right to de-list and delete any content hosted on share.page (including its subdomains) that violates our terms and conditions.

1. What we provide

1. share.page provides various services like user-generated content hosting under certain terms and conditions. These services are referred to as “service”, “hosting” and “platform” in this document.
2. Our service is open to small businesses in a few countries.
3. share.page is an organization funded by registered users’ subscriptions and the founder’s own pockets.
4. The main objective of share.page is to make it easy and accessible for small businesses to promote themselves in their communities.

2. Allowed content & usage

By using share.page, you agree to adhere to the following rules when posting content:

• User-generated content will be accessible publicly, without the need to log in or register on share.page.
• Accounts are considered as inactive when they don’t contain unique contributions and are inactive for more than 6 months. They shouldn’t be kept for a prolonged amount of time, and thus might be removed by share.page’s employees and automated systems.
• User-generated content and attachments (such as images) may not contain harmful code or text that can be run accidentally. Furthermore, content that is clearly written to do harm to others is not allowed.
• You must not share any content that expresses hate or encourages violence towards a person or group for any reason. We also explicitly do not tolerate:
  • Discriminatory behaviour towards and promoting oppression, especially of marginalized groups on grounds of ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, nationality, education, age, and religion.
  • Violent nationalist propaganda, Nazi symbolism, Zionist symbolism, or other harmful ideologies.
  • Mobbing, stalking, doxxing (exposing someone’s personal information), brigading (inciting a group to spam a specific place for any reason), threatening and harassment, as well as encouraging others to do those things.
  • Insults, discriminatory jokes, sexualized comments and other unwanted sexual attention.
  • Sexually obscene content, including content involving the exploitation or sexualization of minors.
  • Content that glorifies violence; that includes any violent material without a proper content warning.
  • Content that harms the reputation of share.page.

Failure to comply with the rules in above will lead to immediate removal of the content together with a warning; further violations might result in immediate account suspension. In non-obvious cases, decisions about account suspensions and content removal are made by the share.page employees.

We additionally reserve the right to remove any content or account with a notice providing a reason and possibly conditions for re-uploading the content.

Content that is deemed illegal in Germany (e.g. by violating copyright or privacy laws) will be taken offline and may lead to immediate account suspension.

Actions intended to damage the association, its reputation, service availability or performance may lead to immediate account suspension. In the case of excessive traffic, resource usage, or unreasonable storage requirements, a warning will normally be issued at first, unless the actions are obviously done with malicious intent.

3. Responsibilities, copyright & guarantees

1. You are responsible for your own actions. Please act accordingly and apply appropriate security measures to protect your own data and account access credentials. This means especially that:

   • You are legally responsible for your contributions on the platform, so for your own protection you should exercise caution and avoid contributing any content that may result in criminal or civil liability under any applicable laws (e.g. copyright and patent infringements, but also things like age-restricted content without age confirmation). Both the German legislation and the legislation in your country of residence may be relevant here.
   • You are solely responsible for your use of any third-party websites or resources. Although some projects may contain links to third-party websites and resources, we do not endorse and are not responsible or liable for their availability, accuracy, or the related content, products, or services, nor do we have any obligation to monitor such third-party content.
   • You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and should never disclose them to any third party.
   • You must make sure that we have a way to contact you by keeping the email address of your account up-to-date.

2. All content on the platform is uploaded by registered users. Those users own all rights and ownership for the content and contributions they provided. Using the platform does not imply any transfer of ownership or copyright.

3. We make no guarantees about the availability of the content hosted on our platform. Although we try to preserve all content for the future, you are solely responsible for making regular backups of everything you rely on.

4. Changes to the Terms of Use will be communicated via an announcement banner in your dashboard. If you do not log in for longer than three months, it is your own responsibility to recheck for the current Terms of Use. If you disagree to a change, you are responsible for closing your account.

5. Administrators reserve the right to disable your account and remove your content at any time if they find you abusing the service. You are responsible for all the content uploaded with your account and subject to whatever legal restrictions you would normally be under for distributing such content.

4. Cancellation and termination

1. You may close your account at any time. Doing so will remove all the content you uploaded to the platform, and thus that content will become unavailable to other people.

2. Abandoned user accounts with no or unused content may be deleted after for 180 days. A warning via email is sent 30 days in advance.

3. Please be aware that this list is neither exhaustive nor complete (illustrating the spirit of the law, not its letter). Be aware that any account can get suspended at any time if it is used for activities harming share.page or its associated platform and services, directly or indirectly, even if these activities are not explicitly listed in the examples above.

5. Disclaimer of warranties and liability

1. The materials on our platform are provided on an ‘as is’ basis. share.page makes no warranties, expressed or implied, and hereby disclaims and negates all other warranties including, without limitation, implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement of intellectual property or other violation of rights.

2. Further, share.page does not warrant or make any representations concerning the accuracy, likely results, or reliability of the use of the materials on its website or otherwise relating to such materials or on any sites linked to this site.

3. In no event shall share.page or its suppliers be liable for any damages (including, without limitation, damages for loss of data or profit, or due to business interruption) arising out of the use or inability to use the materials on share.page’s platform, even if share.page or a share.page-authorized representative has been notified orally or in writing of the possibility of such damage. Because some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on implied warranties, or limitations of liability for consequential or incidental damages, these limitations may not apply to you.
