Stats4U - 無料カウンター

In short

The service is free and is provided without any assurance. There is no guaranteed availability, no warranty as to the accuracy of the figures and no right to support.

Whoever embeds the counter on their site is the data controller for the data collected there and must inform their own visitors about it. Stats4U processes that data only on their behalf; the details are in the data processing agreement.

The provider's liability is limited to the minimum the law allows. To end your use of the service, remove the code from your site — nothing else is required.

§ 1 Provider, user, subject matter

1.1 The provider and operator of Stats4U (the “provider”) is:

LW IT Solutions Company Lukas Wójcik, al. Tadeusza Kościuszki 80/82, lok. 301, 90-437 Łódź, Poland, NIP: PL7252266190, REGON: 369859995, e-mail: stats4u@lukaswojcik.com. The full particulars are in the imprint.

1.2 User (“you”) means anyone who calls up the service, creates a counter using the wizard, embeds the supplied code on a website, calls up a statistics page or uses any function of the service.

1.3 The subject matter of the service is a visitor counter together with the associated statistics. The service is free of charge. There is no registration, no user account and no payment obligation.

1.4 These terms apply to the use of www.stats4u.net and every function available under it. Differing or conflicting terms of the user do not apply, even if the provider does not expressly object to them.

§ 2 Formation and termination

2.1 A use relationship comes into being as soon as you embed the supplied code on a website you operate or are responsible for. It runs for an indefinite period.

2.2 You may end it at any time, without notice and without giving reasons, by removing the code from your pages. No declaration to the provider is required.

2.3 The provider may end it at any time without notice, switch off individual counters or discontinue the service entirely. § 9 remains unaffected.

2.4 The data processing agreement is concluded together with the use relationship. It forms part of these terms and prevails over them in all questions of processing on behalf of a controller.

2.5 Merely calling up a page on www.stats4u.net does not create a use relationship under 2.1; in that case only § 7 (liability), § 10 (rights in content) and § 13 (final provisions) of these terms apply.

§ 3 What the service is — and what it is not

3.1 The service is provided free of charge and “as is”. The provider does not owe any particular quality, any result or any fitness for a purpose you pursue.

3.2 The service runs on the provider's own hardware. There is no guaranteed availability, no response or restoration time, no maintenance window and no entitlement to support, advice or the correction of faults.

3.3 The figures shown are approximations. They are affected by caches, browser image caches, ad and script blockers, redirects, changing addresses, search engine programs and the detection of automated requests. Differences between Stats4U and other counting methods are normal and do not constitute a defect.

3.4 The figures are not suitable to serve as a basis for billing, remuneration, pricing, proof of reach towards third parties, advertising settlement, audits or legal evidence. Anyone using them for such purposes does so at their own risk and can derive no claim against the provider from it.

3.5 The service is not intended for applications in which a failure or malfunction may lead to personal injury, substantial damage to property or environmental damage.

§ 4 Availability, changes, discontinuation

4.1 There is no entitlement to availability of the service. Outages caused by maintenance, faults, attacks, power failure, network failure, failure of third-party inputs or force majeure give rise to no claims.

4.2 The provider may at any time change, restrict, replace or remove functions, adjust counting methods, exchange designs and shorten retention periods. There is no entitlement to the continued existence of a particular function, a particular counting method or a particular appearance.

4.3 The provider may discontinue the service entirely at any time. It will endeavour to announce a planned discontinuation in advance on the blog; there is no legal entitlement to such an announcement.

4.4 The provider may set technical limits — for instance on the number of requests per unit of time, the size of transmissions or the number of counters per user — and may adjust them at any time.

§ 5 Your obligations when using the service

5.1 You may embed the code only on websites that you operate yourself or for which you are responsible and for which you hold the necessary rights.

5.2 You warrant that you will not use the service in connection with unlawful content or conduct. Embedding is prohibited in particular on pages containing:

• content that violates criminal law, in particular depictions of sexual abuse, glorification of violence, incitement to hatred or calls to commit criminal offences,
• content that infringes third-party rights, in particular copyright, trade mark, personality or competition rights,
• malware, fraudulent pages, imitations of third-party sign-in pages or tools for unauthorised access to other systems,
• offerings aimed at circumventing security or age restrictions.

5.3 Also prohibited are: artificially inflating counter readings, automated bulk requests, creating counters in large numbers without a purpose, reading out other people's statistics, attempting to reverse the assignment of visitor identifiers, and any interference with the technology of the service.

5.4 You embed the supplied code unchanged. Only the following are permitted: line breaks, removing or retaining the link to your statistics page, and adjusting size specifications within the options offered by the wizard.

5.5 You ensure that your use does not create excessive load. The service supplies several thousand counters from a single machine; the provider may prevent anything that endangers that operation.

5.6 You must not transmit any personal data — and in particular no special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 GDPR — by way of event names, page addresses or other fields. Names, identifiers, addresses, order numbers and the like do not belong in a page address transmitted to the counter.

5.7 If you receive an administration link for your counter, treat it like a password. Whoever holds it can change the counter's settings.

5.8 You yourself check whether use of the service is permissible under the law applicable to you, and you comply with the rules applicable to your site.

§ 6 Your data protection obligations

6.1 For the personal data collected by the counter when your page is called up, you are the controller within the meaning of Art. 4(7) GDPR. In that respect the provider acts exclusively as a processor under Art. 28 GDPR.

6.2 You are obliged to inform your visitors about the use of the counter in accordance with Art. 13 GDPR. The provider supplies a ready-made paragraph tailored to your counter, in eleven languages, under Privacy text for your site. Using that text does not relieve you of the duty to check it against your site and your law.

6.3 You determine and document the legal basis for the processing yourself and, where the law applicable to you requires it, obtain your visitors' consent in advance.

6.4 Where you are obliged to do so, you maintain a record of processing activities and include the counter in it.

6.5 You answer data subject requests concerning the data collected on your site yourself. The provider assists you in accordance with the data processing agreement.

6.6 If you breach these obligations, § 8 (indemnification) applies.

§ 7 Liability of the provider

7.1 The service is provided free of charge. The provider gives no warranty as to the availability, accuracy, completeness, currency, permanence, security or fitness of the service for a particular purpose, and no warranty that the service will operate free of error or without interruption.

7.2 The provider's liability in damages is excluded to the extent the law permits.

7.3 This does not affect liability

• for intent — an exclusion would be void in that respect under Art. 473 § 2 of the Polish Civil Code,
• for damage arising from injury to life, body or health,
• under mandatory law, in particular under product liability rules and in the case of fraudulent concealment of a defect,
• under Art. 82 GDPR towards data subjects; the allocation between the parties is governed by the data processing agreement.

For gross negligence the provider is liable only to the extent that mandatory law does not permit an exclusion.

7.4 Excluded in particular — save where 7.3 applies — is liability for loss of profit, lost revenue, loss of use, damage to reputation, loss of data, business interruption, wasted expenditure, indirect damage, consequential damage and third-party claims against you.

7.5 The provider keeps no backup of your counter data that would be available to you. It is not liable for the loss of counter readings, statistics or settings. You are yourself responsible for backing up data you depend on and may retrieve it at any time through the export functions offered.

7.6 Where the provider is liable and that liability may be limited by law, it is limited in amount to the foreseeable damage typical for this kind of relationship at the time it was entered into, and in any event to EUR 100 per event of damage and EUR 100 per user and calendar year. This limit reflects the fact that the service is provided free of charge and that there is no fee against which a liability sum could be measured.

7.7 The provider is not liable for the content of third-party websites to which the service links or which link to the service. You alone are liable for the content of your site.

7.8 Third-party advertising is displayed on the statistics pages. The provider has no influence over the individual advertisement that appears there and is not liable for its content or for the offerings it leads to.

7.9 The limitations in this paragraph also apply for the benefit of the provider's legal representatives, staff, agents and contractors, and also to claims in tort.

7.10 Where you are a consumer, mandatory consumer protection rules remain unaffected. The limitations in this paragraph apply to you only to the extent those rules permit; otherwise the statutory rules take their place.

7.11 To the extent the law permits, claims against the provider must be asserted within twelve months after you became aware, or should have become aware but for gross negligence, of the damage and the circumstances giving rise to it. Towards consumers and in cases of intent the statutory period applies.

§ 8 Indemnification

8.1 You shall indemnify the provider against all claims brought against it by third parties — including your own visitors, supervisory authorities and competitors —

• on account of the content of your website or your use of the service,
• because you did not inform your visitors about the use of the counter, or did not do so in time or sufficiently,
• because there was no legal basis, or no tenable legal basis, for the processing on your site, or because a required consent was missing,
• because you transmitted personal data or special categories of personal data through the counter (§ 5.6),
• on account of any other breach of these terms, of the data processing agreement or of the law applicable to you.

8.2 The indemnification covers damages, administrative fines, procedural costs and the reasonable costs of legal defence and enforcement.

8.3 The provider shall inform you without undue delay of any claim asserted, shall make no admission without your consent and shall give you the opportunity to comment and to conduct the defence, to the extent legally possible for it.

8.4 Where you are a consumer, the indemnification applies only to the extent that you are responsible for the underlying breach of duty.

§ 9 Suspension and deletion

9.1 The provider may suspend or delete a counter, an identifier, a domain or an address where there are factual indications of a breach of § 5, where an authority or a court requires it, where the use endangers operations, or where a third party asserts a well-founded claim.

9.2 Where operations are seriously endangered, suspension may take place without prior notice. Otherwise the provider will, so far as possible and reasonable, give prior notice and an opportunity to remedy the matter.

9.3 Counters that have recorded no requests over a longer period may be archived or deleted.

9.4 After the use relationship ends there is no entitlement to the continued existence, surrender or restoration of counter readings, statistics or settings. The controller's rights under the data processing agreement remain unaffected.

9.5 Suspension gives rise to no claim in damages.

§ 10 Rights in content

10.1 The service, its source code, its design, the counter images, charts and texts are protected by copyright. The rights belong to the provider or to the respective rightholders.

10.2 You are granted the simple, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable right to display the code generated for you and the associated counter image on your websites for as long as the use relationship exists.

10.3 By way of exception, you may freely use, adapt and publish the text supplied under Privacy text for your site, provided this is done in connection with the use of Stats4U.

10.4 Trade marks, names and signs of third parties belong to their respective proprietors; they are named for descriptive purposes.

10.5 The service does not alter the particulars you contribute — domain, page titles, event names. You grant the provider the right to display those particulars within the visibility you have chosen (§ 11).

§ 11 Public display, top list, webring

11.1 A counter's statistics page is publicly accessible by default. You may set it to private or protect it with a password in the counter's settings.

11.2 Counters set to public may appear in the top list, in the webring and in example views of the service. You may object to this in the settings.

11.3 There is no entitlement to inclusion in the top list, to a particular ranking or to a link.

11.4 Publicly accessible statistics pages may be indexed by search engines. Anyone who does not want this sets their counter to private.

§ 12 Changes to these terms

12.1 The provider may change these terms, in particular where the scope of the service, the technology used or the legal position changes. The version published at www.stats4u.net/terms governs; it carries a date and a version number.

12.2 Material changes are announced on the blog. Anyone who does not agree to a change ends the use relationship under § 2.2; continued use after a change takes effect counts as agreement.

12.3 Towards consumers a change applies only where it is reasonable and does not affect the balance of performance and consideration; since the service is free of charge, you may end it at any time without disadvantage.

§ 13 Final provisions

13.1 The law of the Republic of Poland applies, excluding its conflict-of-laws rules and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Where you are a consumer, the mandatory rules of the state of your habitual residence remain unaffected.

13.2 The exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this use relationship is Łódź, Poland, where you are a trader, a legal person under public law or a special fund under public law. For consumers the statutory places of jurisdiction apply.

13.3 The provider is neither obliged nor willing to take part in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration body.

13.4 Should any provision of these terms be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions is unaffected. The statutory rules take the place of the invalid provision. In particular, a limitation of liability that is impermissible to the extent stipulated here applies to the greatest extent permitted.

13.5 Declarations under this use relationship may be made in text form; an e-mail to stats4u@lukaswojcik.com is sufficient.

13.6 Towards traders, set-off is permitted only with undisputed claims or claims established by final judgment.

13.7 These terms exist in German, English and Polish. For users addressed in one of those languages, the respective version is binding. For all other language versions the English version governs.

13.8 The privacy policy and the data processing agreement apply in addition.
