The web platform liniaa is an online service of incode gmbh, which is accessible at www.liniaa.com. The platform serves for documentation of personal life timelines as well as life timelines of associations, companies and other collectives and to share these optionally with other persons.
  1. Introductionary statement
    1. Incode gmbh (current operator) decided at the end of November 2020 due to low user numbers not to develop its web platform liniaa.com any further and to make it available only in a reduced form as of April 1, 2021 and under the existing modified terms of use. This means in particular:
      • Users with a paid subscription can continue to use liniaa.com to the extent of the paid subscription. Your paid subscription will be extended after expiry to the same extent and at no cost for an indefinite period or until the platform is definitively discontinued.
      • Users with a free subscription can continue to use liniaa.com free of charge for an indefinite period or until liniaa.com is definitively discontinued.
      • As of now, it is no longer possible to purchase paid subscriptions.
      • It is still possible for existing and new users to use liniaa free of charge with a free account with 100 MB storage space.
      • The date of the definitive discontinuation of the liniaa.com platform is not yet foreseeable and depends on how long the platform will remain compatible with updates from popular web browsers. It is possible that this will take many years to come; however, the operator cannot guarantee this.
      • As of March 31, 2021, the operators will no longer guarantee technical or content support, but will continue to answer important questions from users. No more newsletters will be sent.
      • As before, you have the option of exporting your timelines with the uploaded content (photos, documents, descriptions). Click on your username when you are logged in, go to "My subscription", select the timeline that you want to export and press "Export". You will then receive an email with a link to a zip file for downloading in which the timeline content is packaged according to categories and events.
      • The web platform liniaa.com is no longer technically being further developed. Small adjustments at the discretion of the operator, which extend the life of liniaa.com, remain reserved.
      • The terms of use have been adapted to these changes. They are valid in this form for the further use of liniaa.
  2. Scope of applicability
    1. For the use of the web platform liniaa, subsequently called web platform, the following terms of use apply to the relation of the user and incode gmbh (the operator). The use of the web platform liniaa is only permitted if the user has approved these terms & conditions.
    2. These terms & conditions are effective for the duration of use of the online service www.liniaa.com by registered users.
    3. The operator reserves the rights to change these terms & conditions at any time. In this case, all registered users will receive notice of the changes three months prior to the changes and asked to accept the revised terms & conditions within these three months, if they would like to continue to use the web platform. If the terms & conditions are not approved, the permission to use the web platform will expire upon the date of the change and the respective user account will be blocked until the new terms & conditions are approved.
