Warranty and liability
3.1 As far as the procurement of care personnel, therapy places or facilities is concerned, Viva FamilienService is only responsible for the effort to establish a contact, not for the success. Viva FamilienService is not liable if no suitable caregiver, facility, or suitable therapy place is available or if no contact is made.
3.2 Viva FamilienService endeavors to ensure that correct information is provided in the registrations and/or profile questionnaires of the caregivers and in the listing of care places and therapy places within the scope of the pilot service. Nevertheless, Viva FamilienService cannot guarantee this. Likewise, Viva FamilienService is not responsible for illegal actions of the caregivers, psychotherapists, psychologists, social pedagogues, and other persons referred within the scope of the pilot service, as well as for technically justified transmission delays or failures.
3.3 Viva FamilienService shall only be liable for ordinary negligence in the event of injury to life, body or health by Viva FamilienService or a vicarious agent of Viva FamilienService as well as in the event of a breach of an obligation that is essential for achieving the purpose of the contract (cardinal duty). In the case of a breach of an essential contractual obligation caused by ordinary negligence, the liability of the contractor is limited in amount to the damage that is foreseeable and typical according to the nature of the business in question. Otherwise, Viva FamilienService is liable only in case of intent and gross negligence of Viva FamilienService or one of its vicarious agents. Caregivers and counselors/therapists arranged within the framework of the psychosocial pilot service are not vicarious agents.
Changes to the GTC
Viva FamilienService is entitled to change these GTC at any time. Changes will be communicated to the customer by sending the complete new terms and conditions by e-mail with explicit reference to the changes, and the customer will be asked for written consent.
