These terms of use form a binding contract between you as a System User of the Skribble Service and Skribble AG, Förrlibuckstrasse 190, 8005 Zurich, Switzerland, respectively Skribble Deutschland GmbH, Pforzheimer Straße 128a, 76275 Ettlingen, Germany (Skribble).

1. Subject matter and scope

1.1 You are using the Skribble Services because you have signed a Customer Contract with Skribble, or because you have been identified by a Skribble Customer as authorized to use the Skribble Service.

1.2 In order to sign documents electronically in an advanced or qualified manner, an authentication of the signer and a signature created by a certified service, a so-called Certification Authority, is required. Skribble will integrate these two components into its service with various trusted partners who meet the requirements of ZertES and/or eIDAS in order to create qualified electronic signatures (QES) or advanced electronic signatures (AES) in the simplest possible way.

1.3 These Terms of Use apply to the use of Skribble by you as a System User. The System User is who opens an account under the Skribble Service.

Skribble therefore excludes any liability for damages caused mainly or exclusively in connection with the services of the certification service provider or the certification authority.
