Article 18. Intellectual Property
The intellectual property rights of Rocketmail’s trademarks, the Application Services, all software and source codes and, in general, all works used or exploited in the performance of the Contract or the use of the Application Services belong to Rocketmail which only agrees to grant a use limited to the purpose of any Subscription allowing to benefit from the Application Services. Consequently, Rocketmail remains the sole owner of all intellectual property rights to the trademarks, the Application Services, all software and source codes and, in general, all works used or exploited in the performance of the Contract or the use of the Application Services (including, but not limited to, the following without this list being exhaustive, on software, logos, presentations, videos, texts, sounds, voices, databases and content), the User has only a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-assignable and non-transferable right of use on these elements and only for their personal needs excluding any commercial purpose.

The Application Services, consisting of software, are an original work of the mind protected as such by national and international legislation. The User acknowledges the rights of Rocketmail on the Application Services and undertakes not to contest these rights and not to tolerate any action or act that may prejudice these rights.

The User may not decompile, or translate the object code of the Application Services into source code, themself or have it done by a third party, except in cases and limits strictly defined by law.

The User undertakes to respect the proprietary notices appearing on the Application Services, media or documentation, not to change or remove any mark or inscription appearing on any reproduction of the Application Services or on any media.
If the use of the Application Services by the User has, in accordance with the legislation in force in a country, granted a property right or any other right to the benefit of the User, the User undertakes, upon request and at the expense of Rocketmail, to transfer or have transferred the rights and titles thus granted in the name of Rocketmail.
The User acknowledges that the present General Terms and Conditions only grant the User the right to use the Application Services. Accordingly, the User shall acquire the necessary rights of use and/or exploitation concerning the other software implemented in any program or suite of programs containing the Application Services.
If the User is requested to provide all or part of the Application Services to a third party, the User will not accept this request and will refer to Rocketmail in writing.

The User agrees not to use a sign with similar or identical characteristics to the trademarks, corporate name, trade name or domain name belonging to Rocketmail, as a trademark, name or in any other capacity, in countries for which the present General Terms and Conditions, the Contract or any future amendments do not grant the User the right to use the Application Services.

Article 19. Guarantee
The Application Services contain a standard software package designed to satisfy the greatest number of users and not software specifically developed for the User. Consequently, Rocketmail cannot guarantee the adaptation of the Application Services to the specific needs of the User.
The Application Services are provided on an “as is” basis and exclude any warranty that is or has been made by any other service or company that is similar or dissimilar to or in competition with Rocketmail, by way of trade usage, customary conduct, particular use, third party merchantability, or result otherwise expected of the User.
Rocketmail does not confer and does not grant any warranty, except for the material existence of the Application Services, its existence as a legal person and its underlying right on the Application Services. Rocketmail therefore assumes no other warranty than those mentioned in these General Terms and Conditions and the Contract and in particular:
- Is not able to guarantee the continuity of the Application Services, performed remotely via the Internet, which the User acknowledges. The User is aware of the technical hazards inherent to the Internet, and of the access interruptions that may result from it, and acknowledges the limits of any connection to the Internet network that may slow down access to the Application Services. Consequently, Rocketmail will not be held responsible for any unavailability or slowdown of the Application Services. Furthermore, it is the User’s responsibility to respect the volume thresholds recommended by Rocketmail. 90 The User acknowledges that it is not possible to guarantee that the Application Services will meet performance or cost-effectiveness requirements or that they will operate without discontinuity, bugs or errors. In addition, Rocketmail specifically disclaims, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement or those arising out of a course of dealing or trade usage regarding the Application Services.
- Does not assume any warranty regarding latent defects of the Application Services.
- Does not grant any warranty of eviction. Rocketmail declares to be not aware of any rights belonging to third parties (notably copyright or patent rights) other than those it holds on the Application Services.
In any case, any guarantee is excluded in the case where:
- The User has not respected Rocketmail’s recommendations according to the user guide available at https://lodago.com/en/features-guide/, of which any updates or amendments to the published recommendations will automatically supersede previous recommendations and the User accepts to be bound by the latest version, or if the User has intervened themself or had a third party intervene on the Application Services.
- The Application Services are combined with any other software or, in general, application.
No warranty of Rocketmail (including all companies directly or indirectly related to Rocketmail) is due concerning the physical medium used by the User to use the Application Services.
The information and data appearing on the communication media of Rocketmail and in particular the websites, digital media, catalogs, prospectuses or price lists are communicated only as an indication, except for those whose reference is expressly made to the contractual documents mentioned herein. Consequently, no guarantee from Rocketmail (including all companies that are directly or indirectly linked to Rocketmail) is due concerning the content provided in writing or orally, directly or indirectly and on all the different communication media of Rocketmail. No warranty is further given by the user tips or “best practices” advice provided by Rocketmail.
Article 20. Limitation of liability
Rocketmail undertakes to do everything in its power to provide the Application Services in optimal conditions, except in the event that an interruption of the Application Services is expressly requested by a competent administrative or judicial authority.
Rocketmail can only be held to an obligation of means and not of result concerning all its contractual obligations and in particular the obligations relating to the provision of the Application Services, data hosting and corrective maintenance of the Application Services. Rocketmail can engage its responsibility only in case of fault duly proved by the User and only for the direct, certain and foreseeable damage.
⇒ Ceiling of responsibility
IN THE EVENT THAT ROCKETMAIL’S RESPONSIBILITY IS RETAINED FOR A FAULT DULY PROVEN BY THE USER FOLLOWING AN IRREVOCABLE COURT DECISION, WHATEVER THE NATURE, THE BASIS AND THE MODALITIES OF THE ACTION ENGAGED AGAINST ROCKETMAIL, THE TOTAL AND CUMULATED AMOUNT OF DAMAGES THAT ROCKETMAIL COULD BE BROUGHT TO PAY TO THE USER IS LIMITED, ALL EVENTS INCLUDED, TO THE SUMS EFFECTIVELY COLLECTED, DURING THE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE FIRST EVENT, BY ROCKETMAIL UNDER THE SUBSCRIPTION OR THE CONTRACT.
⇒ Exclusion of responsibility
However, Rocketmail shall not be held responsible for:
- Any unforeseeable damage and/or any indirect, incidental, consequential or special damage by the User, the Sub-Users, or any third party. In particular, any unforeseeable or indirect damage includes (but is not limited to) any loss of use of the Application Services, commercial disturbance, operating loss, loss of or damage to goodwill, loss of sales or business, loss of agreements or contracts, loss of anticipated savings, loss of profit, loss of turnover, loss of revenue, loss of use or corruption of software, data or information, financial performance, loss of profits, loss of business, loss of customers, loss of data, loss of files, interruption of use or availability of data, increased costs and expenses, including the cost of reconstituting files or any action brought by a third party against the User.

- As to the misuse or misapplication of the Application Services, and any possible intangible, material or bodily damage that this may cause.
- Relative to the accidental loss of data due to the initiative of the User, of any Sub-User or to any other physical or material damage that the User and/or the User’s employees, Sub-Users, subcontractors, customers and partners would undergo, except in case of gross negligence of Rocketmail.
- Against third parties due to the use or purely commercial exploitation of the Application Services by the User and Sub-Users. The User undertakes to indemnify Rocketmail in the event of legal action or any other sanction or pecuniary damage pronounced against Rocketmail and resulting from the commercial use of the Application Services by the User and Sub-Users.
In any case, Rocketmail cannot be held liable in the case of :
- Fault, negligence, omission or default of the User, the Sub-User or a third party, non-compliance with the advice given.
- Force majeure, event or incident beyond the control of Rocketmail (such as a hosting breakdown, Internet access breakdown, hacking of the site, Viruses, total or partial interruption or blockage of the telecommunication or electrical networks, act of computer hacking, intrusions or illicit use of the User’s or Sub-User’s Identifiers and passwords, unless it is demonstrated that the intrusions or illicit use of the User’s or Sub-User’s Identifiers and passwords result from a serious and exclusive failure of Rocketmail in securing the Application Services, …).
- Disclosure or illicit use of the Identifiers or password given confidentially to the User or Sub-User.
- Any breach of confidentiality due to the use of an Identifier or password that is not considered strong, secure and compliant with the recommendations of the European supervisory authority Commission Nationale pour la Protection des Données (National Commission for Data Protection). The website of the Commission Nationale pour la Protection des Données is https://cnpd.public.lu/en.html).
Requirements not expressed by the User in the Contract are excluded from the scope of responsibility of Rocketmail.
The User is solely responsible for the operation of the Application Services vis-à-vis third parties and in particular Sub-Users as well as for the data they process. The User will therefore assume alone, with respect to the Sub-Users and all third parties, the responsibilities inherent to the operation of the Application Services (including compliance with all legal obligations in force, in particular those relating to the protection of personal data).
⇒ Time limits for bringing cases to court
In the event of non-performance or improper performance by Rocketmail of any of its contractual obligations, regardless of the cause, the User must bring a claim for damages before the competent courts within a maximum period of one (1) year from the date on which the User first became aware of the non-performance or improper performance. In any case, this period shall not extend beyond one (1) year after the termination of the Subscription, whichever is the sooner of these two events.
Article 21. Confidentiality - Non-competition
The User agrees, throughout the duration of the Contract and without limitation of time after its expiration, for any reason whatsoever, to the utmost confidentiality, by refraining from disclosing, directly or indirectly, any information, data, knowledge or know-how whatsoever concerning Rocketmail and the modalities of operation of the Application Services, to which the User may have had access in the context of the use of the Application Services, unless such information, knowledge or know-how has fallen into the public domain or its disclosure is made necessary by virtue of a particular regulation or an administrative or judicial order.
The User agrees not to sponsor, promote or participate in the development, directly or indirectly, of any product or service that competes with or is detrimental to the operations of products and services provided by Rocketmail. The User is forbidden to speak publicly about the functionalities of Rocketmail’s products and services to Rocketmail’s main competitors (in particular, without this list being restrictive, Jifflenow, Calendly and Chili Piper) or to allow access or consultation of the Application Services by these competitors.
Article 22. Protection of personal data
The Parties undertake to comply with all legal obligations incumbent on them with regard to the applicable provisions on the protection of personal data and in particular the European Regulation 2016/679 of 27 April 2016 which came into force on 25 May 2018 (the “GDPR”).
Taking into account the state of knowledge, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of the processing carried out by the Parties as well as the risks, the degree of probability and seriousness of which varies, for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, the Parties undertake to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures in order to guarantee a level of security appropriate to the risk.
Any processing of the Sub-user’s personal data as natural persons by Rocketmail for the purpose of managing its business relationship with or providing the relevant service to the User will be carried out in accordance with the personal data protection policy attached as Annex 1.
On the other hand, Rocketmail acts as a personal data processor concerning the data of third parties transmitted by the User during the use of the Application Services or to which Rocketmail would have access in the context of the use of the Application Services by the User. Rocketmail undertakes in particular to comply with the obligations of Articles 28 and 29 of the GDPR. This data will be processed in accordance with the stipulations included in Annex 2 of these General Terms and Conditions.
Rocketmail will automatically and without notice delete any account that has been inactive, including the data associated with that account, for more than (36) months.
Article 23. Fight against corruption
The User agrees to comply with all applicable international and local laws, regulations and standards relating to anti-corruption, both for User and for all persons under User’s control or acting on User’s behalf and for User’s account throughout the term of the Contract.
The User warrants that neither them, nor any person under their control or acting on their behalf or for their account, have given or will give any offer, remuneration or payment or benefit of any kind that constitutes or may constitute an act or attempt of bribery, directly or indirectly.
The User shall ensure that any evidence or suspicion of bribery is investigated promptly.
Rocketmail reserves the right to conduct an audit of User’s organization, at the User’s expense in the event of a suspected violation of anti-bribery provisions and at its own expense in the absence of any suspicion, to ensure compliance with this section, for the duration of the Contract and a subsequent period of (2) years after termination of the Contract.
The User agrees to provide any and all assistance necessary for Rocketmail to respond to a request from a duly-empowered authority relating to anti-corruption.
Any breach by the User of the provisions of this section shall be deemed to be a serious breach entitling Rocketmail, at its discretion, to terminate the Contract without notice or compensation, without prejudice to any damages to which Rocketmail may be entitled as a result of such breach.
Article 24. Transfer of rights
The right to use the Application Services is granted “intuitu personae” to the User, none of these rights can be the object of a transfer (total or partial) by the User without prior written agreement from Rocketmail.
The User is also prohibited from transferring, for any reason and in any form whatsoever, whether in return for payment or free of charge, the rights arising from these General Terms and Conditions or any of their rights and obligations to a third party and, on the other hand, from entrusting a third party with the execution of all or part of their contractual obligations.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the User agrees that Rocketmail may, without User’s consent and by simple notification or deed, assign any contractual document binding it to the User and falling within the scope of these General Terms and Conditions in accordance with the article “Contractual Documents”, to any entity of its choice, provided that the assignee assumes all rights and obligations arising hereunder. Any authorized assignment shall be binding and enforceable against the User.
Article 25. Evidence
The recording systems of Rocketmail are considered as proof of the date and duration of the use of the Application Services.
These methods of proof constitute a presumption which can only be overturned in the presence of elements establishing that Rocketmail’s recording and storage means have effectively failed.
Article 26. Security deposit
The User is responsible for the compliance of all contractual stipulations of the Contract by any Sub-Users and in particular of the present General Terms and Conditions.
Article 27. Stipulations applicable only in the case of "off-premises contracts", i.e. when the object of the contract concluded with Rocketmail does not fall within the scope of the principal activity of the User and the number of employees employed by the User is less than or equal to five.
Provided that the Contract falls within the scope of an “off-premises” contract within the meaning of the legal provisions, in particular when the subject matter of the contract concluded with Rocketmail does not fall within the scope of the principal activity of the User and when the number of employees of the User is less than or equal to five, the User is informed to have a period of fourteen (14) calendar days starting from the day after the conclusion of the Contract to exercise, if the User so wishes, their right to withdraw from the Contract. This right is exercised without giving any reason. If the aforementioned period expires on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday, it shall be extended until the next Working Day.
In order to exercise the right of withdrawal, the User must notify Rocketmail of the decision to withdraw from the Contract by means of an unambiguous statement (e.g. letter or email) before the expiry of the aforementioned period of fourteen (14) days. The User may use the model withdrawal form below, which is not obligatory.
If the User withdraws under the legal conditions when the User has expressly requested the execution of the services upon the signature of the Contract, and in particular the access to the Application Services, the User will be required to pay Rocketmail an amount corresponding to the services provided until the notification of the User’s decision to withdraw.
In case of withdrawal, the payments received by Rocketmail will be reimbursed no later than fourteen (14) days from the day Rocketmail is informed of the decision to withdraw, using the same means of payment as the one used by the User.

Article 28. Subcontracting
The User acknowledges that Rocketmail is free to use subcontractors of its choice to execute all or part of the Application Services.
Article 29. Force majeure
Rocketmail cannot be considered in default if the execution of its obligations, in whole or in part, is delayed or prevented by a situation of force majeure.
Force majeure is understood as an external, unforeseeable and irresistible event and any event considered as such by Luxembourgish jurisprudence. It is expressly considered as force majeure, lockouts or other social conflicts (whether they involve the workforce of Rocketmail or any other party), the failure of a public service or a transport or telecommunication network, Internet networks, bad weather, epidemics, earthquakes, floods, water damage, fires, war, attack, riot, civil disturbance, pandemic or epidemic (such as Covid), malicious damage, compliance with any law or governmental order, rule, regulation or directive, accident, plant or machine breakdown, fire, flood, storm, or failure of suppliers or subcontractors that is not attributable to Rocketmail.

Article 30. Termination of the Contract

The User must notify the termination exclusively to the email address legal@lodago.com.
The right to terminate is without prejudice to the right to claim compensation for the damage suffered.
⇒ Termination for failure to provide the Application Services
If Rocketmail no longer provides or is no longer able to provide part of the Application Services or part of the Features for any reason whatsoever, Rocketmail may terminate the Contract for the Application Service(s) or the Feature(s) concerned by written notice sent to the User without liability. Rocketmail will then refund, on a pro-rata basis, all sums paid by the User for the part of the Application Services or Features not received as a result of such termination.
⇒ Termination of any Sub-User's account
Access to the Application Services will automatically terminate for any Sub-Users once they cease to be an employee of the User who has entered into the Contract to use the Application Services.
Article 31. Consequence of the end of the Contract
In all cases of termination of the Contract for any reason whatsoever, including in the case of expiration of the Contract, in the case where the User has canceled their account or in the case of termination of the Contract, the User and, consequently any Sub-user, will no longer be able to benefit from the Application Services.
All rights of use (licenses granted and access to the RocketMail platform) will be immediately terminated and the User and, consequently, any Sub-User will immediately cease to have access to the Application Services. The User and Sub-Users will no longer be allowed to use the Application Services and all their accounts will be disabled.
The User must immediately pay Rocketmail all outstanding invoices of Rocketmail and interest from the respective due date. Rocketmail will submit a closing invoice to the User, which will include all services that have not yet been invoiced on the date of termination. This closing invoice will be payable in accordance with the terms of payment stipulated in the Subscription.
Each Party shall return and make no further use of any equipment, property, documentation or other items (and all copies thereof) belonging to the other Party.
Rocketmail may destroy the User’s data in its possession unless Rocketmail receives, no later than ninety (90) calendar days after the effective date of termination of the Contract, a written request to deliver to the User the most recent backup of the User’s data. Rocketmail will, in such event, use reasonable commercial efforts to deliver the backup to the User within 30 calendar days of receipt of such written request, provided that the User has, as of such date, paid all fees and charges outstanding as of the date of termination and resulting therefrom (whether or not due as of the date of termination). Where the User’s data includes personal data for which Rocketmail is a data controller, Rocketmail will comply with its own retention policy for such personal data and this clause will not apply.
Termination of the Contract shall not affect any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities of the Parties that have accrued to the date of termination or expiration, including the right to claim damages for any breach of the Contract that existed on or before the date of termination or expiration.
Article 32. Reference
Rocketmail may mention the name, company name, logo, sign and/or brand of the User on any reference list, including on the Rocketmail website, for the purpose of communication on all media (in particular advertising or commercial), including any Rocketmail website, both internally and externally and throughout the world. With regard to the User’s logos and trademarks, the User grants Rocketmail a non-exclusive, revocable and royalty-free license to use, display and/or reproduce the User’s trademarks for communication purposes for the entire duration of the intellectual property rights. The User may object to the mention of the User’s name, the User’s company name, the User’s logo, the User’s sign or the User’s brand by contacting Rocketmail at the email address legal@lodago.com. Rocketmail will have thirty (30) days from the sending of the email to remove the User’s name, company name, logo, sign and/or brand from any reference list, including on the Rocketmail website, for the purpose of communication on all media (in particular advertising or commercial), including any Rocketmail website, both internal and external and worldwide.

Rocketmail will comply with the legal and regulatory obligations applicable to it in its capacity as a service provider under the law applicable to the Contract.
Rocketmail is not obliged to assume the legal and administrative obligations of the User, including those relating to the services provided within the framework of the present General Terms and Conditions. It is therefore the User’s responsibility to ensure compliance with the laws and regulations applicable to the User, without being able to hold Rocketmail liable.
The User guarantees that the User is not subject to any direct or indirect constraint, internal or external to the structure to which he is linked, which makes the execution of the present General Terms and Conditions partially or totally impossible (in particular, a country towards which Luxembourg has imposed an embargo, a country which has imposed an embargo towards Luxembourg, a country subject to commercial and financial sanctions by Luxembourg or the European Union.).
The User undertakes to comply with the laws in force to which the User is subject, either because of the User nationality or because of the User geographical location.

Rocketmail further reserves the right to investigate any complaints or reported violations of any of the provisions of the Contract and to take any action deemed appropriate, including, but not limited to, canceling any User account, reporting any suspected illegal activity to law enforcement authorities, regulators or other third parties and disclosing any necessary or appropriate information to such persons or entities regarding any data processed through or by the Application Services.
