(1) These Terms and Conditions ("T&C") apply to all contracts concluded via the website vipdashplayer.net between the provider and the customer regarding the purchase of digital license keys ("activation codes") for the software "ViPDashPlayer Pro".
(2) Provider and contracting party: [Name & address will be added once the trade license has been obtained], e-mail: vipdashplayer@web.de. Further provider details are listed in the .
(3) Customer within the meaning of these T&C is any natural or legal person who enters into a contract with the provider. Offers are directed at both consumers (§ 13 BGB) and entrepreneurs (§ 14 BGB).
(4) The version of these T&C valid at the time of contract conclusion is decisive. Any deviating, conflicting or supplementary general terms of the customer shall only become part of the contract if and to the extent the provider has expressly agreed to their validity in writing.
(1) The subject of the contract is solely the provision of a digital activation code to unlock the premium features of "ViPDashPlayer Pro" (a media player application for Android TV / Leanback). The feature set and term depend on the tariff selected by the customer. Current tariffs are available on the pricing page.
(2) ViPDashPlayer Pro is purely a blank software (media player). No content, channels, movies, series, streams, playlists, subscriptions or references to commercial streaming services are sold, delivered, preloaded or otherwise provided. The customer is solely responsible for importing and playing back only such content for which they hold the necessary rights.
(3) The player does not circumvent any technical protection measures within the meaning of § 95a UrhG. All DRM handling (e.g. ClearKey, Widevine) is performed exclusively through the official Android / Media3 interfaces. Detailed information is provided in the .
(4) The non-binding service descriptions on the website do not constitute a binding offer by the provider but an invitation to the customer to submit a binding purchase offer (invitatio ad offerendum).
(1) The order process works as follows: (a) selecting the desired tariff on the pricing page, (b) entering the required order data (e-mail), (c) acknowledging these T&C and the , (d) expressly consenting to early commencement of contract execution and to the expiration of the right of withdrawal (mandatory checkbox, see § 6), (e) redirect to PayPal and completion of payment.
(2) By clicking the order / PayPal button, the customer submits a binding offer. The contract is concluded upon payment confirmation via PayPal and subsequent provision of the activation code by e-mail or in the customer portal.
(3) The contract text (order data + T&C + withdrawal instructions) is stored by the provider and sent to the customer in text form by e-mail (§ 312f BGB). The currently valid T&C can be viewed, downloaded and saved at any time on the website.
(4) Contract languages are German and English.
(1) The prices displayed on the pricing page at the time of ordering apply. All prices are final prices in euros including statutory VAT where applicable, unless the small-business rule under § 19 UStG applies (in which case no VAT is shown separately).
(2) Payment is processed exclusively through PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg. The PayPal terms of use and privacy notices apply additionally.
(3) The provider does not receive or store any credit card, bank account or payment data of the customer — only the payment confirmation and the transaction details required for contract performance.
(4) The purchase price is due immediately upon conclusion of the contract.
(1) Delivery is digital only. After successful payment confirmation, the customer receives the activation code without undue delay (usually within minutes) by e-mail and additionally in the customer portal.
(2) The customer is obliged to provide a valid, regularly checked e-mail address and is responsible for any delivery issues (e.g. full mailbox, spam filter).
(3) Should the activation code fail to arrive for technical reasons, the customer shall contact the provider at the e-mail address listed in § 1(2); the provider will re-send or regenerate the code without undue delay.
Right of Withdrawal
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within fourteen days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period is fourteen days from the day of the conclusion of the contract.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, you must inform us — [Name of the provider will be added once the trade license has been obtained], [address], e-mail: vipdashplayer@web.de — of your decision to withdraw from this contract by an unequivocal statement (e.g. a letter sent by post or an e-mail). You may use the model withdrawal form below, but it is not obligatory.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning the exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of Withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (with the exception of the supplementary costs resulting from your choice of a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us), without undue delay and not later than fourteen days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
IMPORTANT — EARLY EXPIRATION OF THE RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL:
For a contract on the supply of digital content not delivered on a tangible medium, the right of withdrawal expires under § 356(5) BGB if the provider has begun execution of the contract after the consumer has (a) expressly consented to execution beginning before the end of the withdrawal period, (b) confirmed awareness that the right of withdrawal expires upon such consent and commencement, and (c) been provided with a confirmation in text form pursuant to § 312f BGB.
By clicking the mandatory checkbox in the order process ("Yes, I expressly consent to the commencement of contract execution before the expiry of the withdrawal period. I acknowledge that my right of withdrawal expires upon commencement of execution."), the consumer provides this consent. The right of withdrawal therefore expires definitively upon generation and dispatch or deposit of the activation code.
Model Withdrawal Form (pursuant to Annex 2 of Art. 246a § 1(2)(1)(1) EGBGB)
(If you wish to withdraw from the contract, please complete and return this form.)
To: [Name of the provider will be added once the trade license has been obtained], [address], e-mail: vipdashplayer@web.de
I/We (*) hereby give notice that I/we (*) withdraw from my/our (*) contract for the sale of the following goods (*) / the provision of the following service (*):
_______________________________________________
Ordered on (*) / received on (*): _______________
Name of consumer(s): _______________
Address of consumer(s): _______________
Signature of consumer(s) (only if this form is notified on paper): _______________
Date: _______________
(*) Delete as appropriate.
NO EXCHANGE, NO RETURN, NO REFUND:
The product offered here consists exclusively of digital content (a software activation code). Upon generation and provision of the activation code, the contract is fully performed and the right of withdrawal pursuant to § 6 has expired. A withdrawal, return, exchange or (partial) refund of the purchase price is thereafter excluded — all sales are final.
Excluded from this are only mandatory statutory warranty claims of the consumer in the event of a defective product pursuant to §§ 327 et seq. BGB (see § 10 of these T&C).
(1) Upon receipt of payment, the customer receives a simple, non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-sublicensable right to use the premium features of "ViPDashPlayer Pro" within the tariff purchased and for its duration.
(2) The activation code may only be used within the device limit agreed at the time of purchase (e.g. 1 or 5 simultaneously active devices). Management of linked devices takes place in the customer portal. Sharing, making publicly available, commercially renting or publishing the code is prohibited.
(3) In case of a justified suspicion of account sharing, circumvention of the device limit or other misuse, the provider is entitled, after one warning, to permanently block the affected activation code without refund.
(4) Decompilation, reverse engineering, removal of protection mechanisms or modification of the software is only permitted within the limits strictly allowed by law (§§ 69d, 69e UrhG).
(1) The customer is solely responsible for which content, playlists or streams they import into and play back through the software. The customer warrants that they hold the required rights or consents from the rights holders.
(2) Use of the software to play back copyright-protected content without the required permission of the rights holder is prohibited. Any third-party claims resulting therefrom shall be borne solely by the customer.
(3) The customer shall indemnify the provider against all third-party claims arising from unlawful use of the software by the customer, including reasonable costs of legal defense.
(4) The customer shall treat login credentials for the customer portal and the activation code as confidential and protect them from access by unauthorized third parties.
(1) Statutory warranty provisions apply. For defects of the software, the provider is liable towards consumers under §§ 327 et seq. BGB (consumer contract for digital products) or, in business dealings, under §§ 434 et seq. BGB.
(2) In case of a defect, the customer is initially entitled to supplementary performance (restoration of the contractual condition). If this fails or is refused, the customer may reduce the price or — in the case of not insignificant defects — withdraw from the contract.
(3) Insignificant deviations of the delivered software from the descriptions on the website do not constitute a defect. In particular, the provider is not liable for the permanent compatibility of specific streaming formats, playlists or third-party services of the customer, provided the software conforms to generally accepted standards (HLS, DASH, MP4, M3U).
(1) The provider is liable without limitation in cases of intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, under the provisions of the German Product Liability Act, and within the scope of any guarantee assumed by the provider.
(2) In the case of slightly negligent breach of a duty whose fulfillment is essential for the proper execution of the contract and on which the customer may regularly rely (cardinal duty), the liability of the provider is limited to the foreseeable damage typical of the contract at the time of its conclusion.
(3) Otherwise, liability for slightly negligent damages is excluded.
(4) The provider is not liable for the continuous availability of the app on third-party platforms (e.g. Google Play Store, Amazon Appstore) or for damages arising from the use of incompatible streams by the customer.
(5) Any further liability of the provider is excluded. Detailed user-responsibility information is provided in the .
The collection and processing of personal data of the customer is governed exclusively by the provider\'s , which is accessible at any time via the corresponding link in the footer of the website and acknowledged by confirming the corresponding checkbox in the order process.
(1) Customer support is provided by e-mail at vipdashplayer@web.de as well as via the public Support Forum.
(2) No specific response time is guaranteed unless the selected tariff expressly specifies otherwise.
The European Commission provided an online dispute resolution (ODR) platform until 20 July 2025; this platform has been shut down following the repeal of Regulation (EU) No 524/2013 by Regulation (EU) 2024/3228 and is no longer available.
The provider is neither willing nor obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board (§ 36(1)(1) VSBG).
(1) The provider is entitled to amend these T&C with effect for the future, insofar as this is necessary for compelling reasons — in particular due to changes in legislation, supreme court case law, technical changes or extensions of the scope of services — and does not unreasonably disadvantage the customer.
(2) The changes shall be notified to the customer in text form at least six weeks before their planned entry into force. If the customer does not object within this period, the changes shall be deemed accepted; the customer will be expressly informed of this in the notification of amendment.
(3) For individual contracts that have already been fully performed (in particular for activation codes already delivered), the version valid at the time of contract conclusion remains applicable.
(1) The provider is under no obligation to operate, maintain, update or further develop the software "ViPDashPlayer Pro", the associated website or the activation server indefinitely. The customer has no claim to specific updates, new features or permanent availability of the infrastructure.
(2) The provider may discontinue operation of the software, the website or individual services (e.g. activation server, customer portal, forum) in whole or in part at any time. Licenses already paid for remain usable until the end of their respective term; beyond that, no further obligations arise for the provider — in particular no right to a refund, further development, substitute performance or damages for lost use.
(3) Should the activation server or online verification be permanently shut down, the provider will endeavour to provide an offline activation mechanism or a final working version of the app, but is not obliged to do so.
(4) Material changes (e.g. reduction of functionality) or complete discontinuation of the service will — where reasonable — be communicated to the customer in advance with appropriate notice by e-mail or on the website.
(1) The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies exclusively, to the exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). Mandatory consumer-protection provisions of the state in which the consumer has his habitual residence remain unaffected.
(2) If the customer is a merchant, legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contractual relationship is the registered office of the provider.
(3) Should individual provisions of these T&C be wholly or partly invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected. The invalid provision shall be replaced by the statutory regulation.
(4) Side agreements, changes or additions to this contract require text form to be effective. This also applies to any waiver of this text-form requirement.

LEGAL DISCLAIMER:
ViPDashPlayer Pro is solely a media player application (blank software). The app does NOT contain any pre-loaded media content, channels, movies, series, playlists or references to commercial streaming services. The user is solely responsible for providing their own content or playlists (M3U/URL) and for only playing back content for which they hold the necessary rights.
NO CIRCUMVENTION OF TECHNICAL PROTECTION MEASURES:
The player does not circumvent any technical protection measures. All DRM handling (e.g. ClearKey, Widevine) is performed exclusively through the official Android / Media3 interfaces. The player does not generate licence keys, does not manipulate CDM sessions and does not convert between DRM schemes. Hardware DRM is executed entirely by the device's hardware-backed Trusted Execution Environment, not by the player.
NO AFFILIATION WITH THIRD-PARTY PROVIDERS:
The developer has no business, contractual or promotional affiliation with any commercial streaming or pay-TV provider. The developer expressly does not permit, endorse or promote the use of this player for streaming copyright-protected material without the explicit permission of the copyright holder. Any user who does so acts entirely on their own responsibility.
