Terms of Use
Last updated: July 2026
§1 Scope
These Terms of Use apply to the use of the application "DownloadThat" (the "App"), the associated website, and the optional Pro licensing (together, the "Service"), offered by Benjamin Graf (see Legal Notice, the "Provider"). They apply in the version valid at the time of use or conclusion of the contract. Any deviating, conflicting, or supplementary terms of the user shall not become part of the contract unless the Provider expressly agrees to their applicability in text form.
§2 Description of services
The App is a technical tool that allows users to download publicly accessible internet media content (video, audio, images) from an internet address (URL) of their own choosing, which the user enters themselves, to their own device. The Provider does not itself provide any media content, does not operate a platform with third-party content, and has no influence over which URLs users enter into the App or what is behind those URLs.
Some features ("Pro") are paid and unlock a higher daily download quota (see the pricing page). The free version otherwise remains usable without change in quality or feature scope. The Provider owes only the features described in the then-current service description; no warranty as to quality or durability within the meaning of § 443 of the German Civil Code (BGB) is assumed unless expressly designated as a "guarantee."
§3 Requirements for use
Use of the App requires the capacity to enter into legally binding declarations. Minors require the consent of their legal guardians, in particular for the purchase of a paid Pro license. The user represents that they will not use the App for unlawful purposes, to distribute malware, for automated bulk querying (scraping/botting) of third-party services, or in any way that harms or endangers third parties or the Provider.
§4 User responsibility for downloaded content
The user is solely and exclusively responsible for ensuring that they are entitled to download, store, reproduce, and use the content they select. This applies in particular to works protected by copyright, trademark, or personality rights (e.g. music, films, videos, photos). The mere fact that content is publicly accessible on the internet does not grant any right to reproduce or otherwise use it.
The App processes only addresses (URLs) entered by the user themselves, at their sole initiative and under their sole responsibility. The Provider has no knowledge of the content processed by the user, does not and cannot technically verify whether the user holds the necessary rights to the respective content, makes no selection or recommendation regarding particular sources, and assumes no responsibility, warranty, or liability whatsoever for the lawfulness of processing initiated by the user. Users who download content without the necessary rights act solely and exclusively at their own legal risk.
In particular, the following are prohibited: downloading, reproducing, or distributing copyright-protected content without the rights holder's permission; circumventing technical protection measures contrary to § 95a of the German Copyright Act (UrhG); and any use that violates the terms of use of the respective source platform or applicable law.
§5 Indemnification
The user shall indemnify the Provider, upon first request, against any and all third-party claims — including, without limitation, claims for infringement of copyright, trademark, or personality rights, together with the associated reasonable costs of legal defense (including attorneys' and court fees) — asserted against the Provider as a result of content processing initiated by the user or any other breach of these Terms of Use, to the extent the user is responsible for the underlying breach. The user shall support the Provider in its legal defense to the best of its ability and at its own expense.
§6 Pro version, payment, withdrawal
6.1 Formation of contract and payment
A Pro license is purchased as a non-consumable one-time product through Google Play. After server-side confirmation, the user receives a license key for the Play app, direct APK and Windows app. For details on data processing, see the Privacy Policy. The Provider reserves the right to change prices for future contracts with reasonable notice; contracts already in progress are not affected.
6.2 One-time license purchase, no term
The Pro license is a one-time purchase with no recurring payments; no subscription is entered into and no cancellation is required. Refund and purchase-related requests are handled under the applicable Google Play rules; a refund or revocation deactivates the linked license.
6.3 Delivery, refunds and withdrawal
DownloadThat Pro is digital content. Delivery begins after Google Play confirms the purchase. Statutory consumer rights remain unaffected; refund and withdrawal transactions are technically processed through Google Play. The Provider offers no separate automatic self-service refund beyond applicable legal duties.
§7 Withdrawal notice
Right of withdrawal: Consumers have the right to withdraw from this contract within fourteen days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period is fourteen days from the conclusion of the contract. To exercise the right of withdrawal, the user must inform the Provider (contact details in the Legal Notice) of the decision to withdraw from this contract by means of a clear statement (e.g. by email). To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient to send the notice of withdrawal before the withdrawal period expires.
Effects of withdrawal: In the event of a valid withdrawal, the Provider shall reimburse all payments received from the user for the withdrawn service without undue delay and no later than fourteen days from the day on which notice of withdrawal is received, using the same means of payment used for the original purchase, insofar as technically possible; otherwise by arrangement with the user.
Digital content: Whether and when the right of withdrawal lapses for supplied digital content is governed by the statutory requirements and declarations obtained during the Google Play purchase flow. These terms do not claim any broader restriction.
Model withdrawal form (optional; complete and send to the contact details in the Legal Notice if needed):
"I/we hereby give notice that I/we withdraw from my/our contract for the purchase of the following DownloadThat Pro license: [state license key/tier] — Ordered on: [date] — Name of consumer(s) — Address of consumer(s) — Signature of consumer(s) (only if this form is notified on paper) — Date."
§8 Availability
The Provider strives for the highest possible uninterrupted availability of the Service but assumes no guarantee for this and owes no particular level of availability. Maintenance work, force majeure, or changes to third-party services used by the App (e.g. video platforms) may impair or eliminate the functionality of individual features at any time and without any obligation of prior notice, without giving rise to any claims against the Provider.
§9 Liability
The Provider is liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence, for damages arising from injury to life, body, or health, and pursuant to the German Product Liability Act. For breaches of duty caused by slight negligence, the Provider is liable only insofar as a material contractual obligation (cardinal obligation, i.e. an obligation whose fulfillment is a prerequisite for the proper performance of the contract at all and on compliance with which the user may regularly rely) is breached, and in that case limited to the foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract. In all other respects, the Provider's liability — irrespective of the legal basis, including liability in tort — is excluded. The foregoing limitations of liability also apply for the benefit of the Provider's vicarious agents and legal representatives.
In particular, the Provider assumes no liability, warranty, or guarantee for the availability, completeness, accuracy, or lawfulness of content accessed via URLs specified by the user that are not controlled by the Provider, nor for any damages, third-party claims, or legal consequences of any kind arising for the user or third parties from content processing initiated by the user (see §4). The App is provided "as is," without warranty of fitness for a particular purpose, to the extent permitted by law.
Claims by the user against the Provider shall lapse, to the extent legally permissible, within one year from the statutory commencement of the limitation period; this does not apply to claims arising from intent, gross negligence, injury to life, body, or health, or under the German Product Liability Act.
§10 Changes to these Terms of Use
The Provider may amend these Terms of Use with effect for the future, insofar as this is necessary to adapt to changed legal or technical circumstances or to maintain a reasonable relationship between performance and consideration. Users will be informed of material changes in good time before they take effect, in the App or by email, and asked to consent again; if the user does not object within six weeks, the changes shall be deemed approved, which the Provider will specifically point out in the notice of change. Existing contracts will continue unaffected under the terms in force at the time of conclusion, unless otherwise validly agreed.
§11 Final provisions
The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). If the user is a consumer with habitual residence in another EU member state, mandatory consumer-protection provisions of that state that cannot be waived by agreement remain unaffected by this choice of law. If the user is a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with this contract is the Provider's registered place of business. Amendments and supplements to these Terms of Use, as well as collateral agreements, require text form; this also applies to any waiver of this text-form requirement. Should individual provisions of these Terms of Use be or become invalid or unenforceable, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected; the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by a valid and enforceable provision that comes closest to the economic purpose of the invalid provision.
