Terms and Conditions

Convenience translation: The German version of these Terms and Conditions is legally authoritative. This translation does not limit mandatory consumer or information rights.

These Terms apply to Gulasch software services offered at gulasch-app.de. Purchases of goods from a grocery retailer are governed solely by the contract and terms of that retailer.

1. Provider and scope

The Gulasch software services are provided by Gulas.app. s.r.o., acting in Germany through its branch Gulasch GmbH, Trierer Straße 173 A, 56072 Koblenz (“Gulasch”). Registration and contact details are available in the imprint.

These Terms apply to consumers and businesses. A user's differing terms apply only if Gulasch expressly accepts them.

2. The service

Gulasch provides software for discovering recipes, planning meals, creating shopping lists and technically transferring selected items to independent grocery retailers. Recipe, nutritional, price, availability and product information may change and is not professional or medical advice.

3. Use of the software service

A software-use contract is formed when the user uses a supplied feature. Unless a price and payment obligation are clearly displayed before a paid feature is used, use is free of charge. Gulasch may require registration or a current app version for individual features.

Users may use the service only lawfully and for their own purposes. In particular, they must not disrupt the service, bypass security, scrape it automatically or infringe third-party rights.

4. Grocery orders and the retailer's role

Gulasch does not sell, store, pack or deliver groceries. A purchase contract for groceries is concluded solely between the user and the selected retailer. Products, prices, delivery areas, delivery times and terms shown during the retailer's checkout are authoritative.

The retailer is the sole contact for payment, delivery, product quality, defects, substitutions, cancellation, withdrawal from a goods purchase, refunds and any compensation. Related requests must be addressed directly to the retailer. Gulasch assumes no contractual obligation for these retailer duties and does not represent the retailer.

Mandatory statutory claims against Gulasch concerning its own software service remain unaffected. This includes mandatory rights for digital products and any statutory withdrawal or termination right that applies in an individual case. Required information will be provided before such a contract is concluded.

5. Technical transfer to retailers

A shopping list generated by Gulasch is a technical suggestion. Before placing an order, the user must check the retailer's basket. If a transfer fails or items, quantities or prices differ, only the basket confirmed with the retailer is binding.

6. Rights in content and software

Software, design and content supplied by Gulasch are legally protected. For the term of the use contract, users receive a simple, non-transferable right to use the service as intended. Retailer marks and third-party content remain with their owners.

7. Availability and changes

Gulasch aims to provide a reliable service but does not promise uninterrupted availability for free services. Maintenance, security, technical development or law may require changes. Material adverse changes to ongoing consumer contracts will be made only where legally permitted and objectively justified; statutory information and termination rights remain unaffected.

8. Warranty and liability

Statutory warranty rights apply. Gulasch has unlimited liability for intent and gross negligence, injury to life, body or health, under product-liability law and within an express guarantee. For slight negligence affecting an essential contractual duty, liability is limited to typical foreseeable loss. Liability for other slight negligence is excluded to the extent permitted by law.

Nothing in this section limits mandatory consumer rights or liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited.

9. Term and termination

An indefinite free-use contract may be terminated at any time. Gulasch may terminate it on reasonable notice; serious misuse or danger to the service may justify immediate suspension or termination. Differing statutory rights remain unaffected.

10. Privacy

The Privacy Policy explains personal-data processing. The Cookie Policy explains local storage and similar technologies.

11. Consumer dispute resolution

Gulasch is neither willing nor obliged to participate in dispute-resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.

12. Governing law, language and final terms

German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. For consumers, this choice does not deprive them of protection under mandatory provisions of the country of their habitual residence. Mandatory statutory jurisdictions remain unaffected.

The German version of these Terms is legally authoritative. The English translation is supplied only for convenience. This language rule does not restrict mandatory information or consumer rights.

If any term is invalid, the remaining terms stay effective and the statutory rule applies in its place.
