1. Scope and Contracting Party
1.1 These General Terms of Use ("Terms") govern the use of the website, application and related services under the name trovagenda ("Service", "we", "us").
1.2 The contracting party is trovagenda.
1.3 By registering a user account, logging in or using the Service — whichever occurs first — you accept these Terms in their current version. In addition, our Privacy Policy applies, and, where applicable, the current price list for paid services.
1.4 Any deviating terms of the user shall not apply unless we expressly agree to them in writing.
2. Description of Services
2.1 trovagenda is a digital service for the personalised presentation of event and appointment information ("Events"). The Service includes in particular:
- a web-based user interface for configuring personal interests and displaying a personalised agenda;
- provision of a personal calendar subscription in iCalendar (ICS) format that can be used with common calendar applications (e.g. Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Microsoft Outlook);
- additional features that we offer or adjust from time to time.
2.2 The Service is offered in two usage tiers:
| Tier | Designation | Key Features |
|---|---|---|
| Free | Free Use | Limited functionality; content may include advertising, partner notices or supplementary links |
| Premium | Paid Use | Extended functionality; without advertising within the meaning of Section 7.2 |
The specific scope of features for each tier is set out in the service description on the website at any given time and may be adjusted by us.
2.3 We are not the organiser of Events listed in trovagenda and have no official affiliation with leagues, clubs, artists, venues or media companies unless expressly indicated otherwise.
3. Registration and User Account
3.1 Use of the Service generally requires a user account. When registering, the information requested must be provided truthfully and completely and kept up to date.
3.2 Information required for use includes in particular a valid email address, a password and preferences chosen by you (e.g. interests, regions, teams or comparable settings). Further information may be required where necessary to provide the Service.
3.3 You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and are liable for all activities carried out under your account unless you can prove that you were not responsible for them.
3.4 As a rule, one user account is intended per natural person. Sharing login credentials with third parties is prohibited.
3.5 We may suspend or delete accounts if there is reasonable suspicion of misuse, breach of these Terms or violation of applicable law.
4. Prices, Payment and Renewal (Premium)
4.1 Use of the Free tier is free of charge.
4.2 For the Premium tier, the fees and conditions set out in the current price list apply. The price list forms part of these Terms and is incorporated by reference.
4.3 Unless otherwise stated in the price list, a paid subscription renews automatically for the billing period specified therein unless cancelled in due time.
4.4 Payment is made via the payment methods and payment service providers indicated on the website. By concluding a Premium subscription, you authorise us or the payment service provider to collect the amounts due.
4.5 Price adjustments will be communicated to you in the form required by law and contract. In such cases, you have the right to cancel the subscription when the new prices take effect.
5. Usage Rights and Obligations
5.1 We grant you a simple, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right to use the Service for personal, non-commercial use within the scope of these Terms.
5.2 The following is prohibited in particular:
- use of the Service in a manner that impairs its operation, security or availability (e.g. excessive automated requests, scraping, reverse engineering, exploitation of vulnerabilities);
- commercial redistribution, resale or public making available of content or feeds from the Service unless expressly permitted;
- actions that violate applicable law or the rights of third parties;
- any use that we consider inappropriate at our reasonable discretion.
5.3 You undertake to inform us without delay if you suspect unauthorised use of your account or your personal calendar feed.
6. Personal Calendar Feed (ICS)
6.1 We provide Premium users and, where applicable, Free users with a personal calendar subscription link ("feed URL"). The feed URL is intended for your own use — for example, for integration into your personal calendar applications on your devices.
6.2 The feed URL functions like a personal access key. You should not publish or share it carelessly. We may take technical measures if a feed URL is used in a manner that goes beyond customary personal use.
6.3 Updating the feed in your calendar application also depends on its settings and fetch intervals. We have no influence over how quickly third-party calendars adopt changes.
6.4 Upon termination of the account or change of usage tier, the content or scope of the feed may change or the feed may be deactivated.
7. Content, Links, Advertising and Partner Notices
7.1 Event information in trovagenda may be supplemented with links, notices or third-party content — in particular relating to ticketing, live streams, live tickers, news, partner offers or comparable services. This applies in particular to the Free tier, but may also occur in other areas of the Service.
7.2 In the Premium tier, targeted advertising within event presentation is omitted; functional links to factually relevant information (e.g. ticket purchase, official organiser pages) may still be included.
7.3 Operators of linked third-party content, offers and services are solely responsible for them. Following external links is at your own risk.
8. Data, Availability and Accuracy
8.1 Event information comes from various publicly accessible sources and is aggregated, processed and personalised by us. We endeavour to keep it current and complete but do not warrant this.
8.2 Dates may change, be rescheduled, cancelled or incomplete. Schedules, locations, participants and supplementary information are provided without warranty. For decisions with legal, financial or health implications (e.g. ticket purchase, travel planning), official sources are authoritative.
8.3 We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability of the Service or error-free operation. Maintenance, technical disruptions or force majeure may cause outages.
8.4 For the further development and improvement of the Service, we may evaluate usage data and information provided by you in aggregated or pseudonymised form. Details are set out in our Privacy Policy.
9. Liability
9.1 To the extent permitted by law, our liability — regardless of legal grounds — is fully excluded.
9.2 This exclusion of liability applies in particular to:
- the accuracy, completeness and currency of event information;
- missed, incorrect or delayed appointments, notifications or calendar synchronisations;
- actions or omissions of linked third parties;
- damages resulting from use or unavailability of the Service, the calendar feed or individual features;
- indirect damages, consequential damages, loss of profit or intangible damages.
9.3 Mandatory statutory liability provisions — in particular in cases of intent or gross negligence and in the event of injury to life, body or health — remain reserved.
9.4 Where our liability is not excluded, it is limited to the amount you paid us for Premium services in the twelve months prior to the event giving rise to liability, but not exceeding CHF 100.–.
10. Intellectual Property
10.1 All rights in trovagenda software, design, texts, databases, trademarks and other content of the Service — unless third-party rights apply — remain with trovagenda or the respective rights holders.
10.2 Names of leagues, clubs, artists, venues and similar designations may be used in a descriptive manner to identify Events. No third-party trademark rights are claimed.
10.3 Reproduction, editing, distribution or public performance of content from the Service beyond intended use is prohibited without our prior written consent.
11. Term, Cancellation and Termination
11.1 Free use may be terminated at any time by deleting the user account via the website.
11.2 Premium subscriptions may be cancelled at any time via the functions provided on the website. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; Premium access remains until then.
11.3 We may adjust, restrict or discontinue the Service or individual features at any time. In the event of material changes or discontinuation of the Service, we will inform you in advance where reasonably possible.
11.4 Upon effective cancellation or deletion of the account, your access to the Service ends. Stored data is handled in accordance with the Privacy Policy. Your calendar feed may be deactivated; appointments already imported into your calendar applications are not automatically removed by us.
12. Changes to the Terms
12.1 We may amend these Terms at any time. The current version is available on the website.
12.2 In the event of material changes, we will inform registered users in an appropriate manner (e.g. by email or notice upon login). If you do not object within the stated period, the amended Terms shall be deemed accepted. We will inform you of the right to object and the consequences of an objection in the notice.
13. Final Provisions
13.1 Swiss law applies exclusively, excluding conflict-of-law rules and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).
13.2 The exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with these Terms is — to the extent permitted by law — a court in Switzerland. Mandatory places of jurisdiction for consumers' places of residence remain reserved.
13.3 Should any provision of these Terms be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected. The invalid provision shall be replaced by a rule that comes closest to the economic purpose.
