Terms of Service

Effective 27 September 2026 · Version 1.0

1. Scope and provider

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the website projectmodularity.com and all related services, including the free demo, user accounts and paid subscriptions (together, the "Service"). The Service is provided by Bruno Noel Paschmann, doing business as GlobEstate, [Street address and apartment/suite], New York, NY 10027, United States of America, email sales@projectmodularity.com ("GlobEstate", "we", "us").

By creating an account, subscribing or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms. Conflicting terms of a business customer do not apply unless we agree to them in writing.

A "consumer" is a natural person who uses the Service for purposes that are predominantly outside their trade, business or profession. A "business customer" is anyone acting in a commercial or professional capacity, for example brokers and companies. Some sections apply only to consumers or only to business customers, as stated.

2. The Service

GlobEstate is a software platform that visualizes real estate on an interactive 3D globe, lets you upload and organize your own property portfolio, and offers plans for individuals, brokers and companies.

No brokerage, no advice, no offer. Listings, prices, valuations, unit data and the "reserve", "offer", "financing" and "closing" steps shown in the Service are for illustration and demonstration unless we expressly state otherwise. Nothing in the Service is an offer to sell or buy real estate or securities, a binding reservation, or financial, investment, legal, tax or mortgage advice. We are not a licensed real estate broker, lender or investment adviser. Always consult qualified professionals before making real estate or investment decisions.

Demo content. Demo listings, images and figures are placeholders and may not reflect real properties, availability or prices. Map and 3D data are supplied by third parties (Google, Cesium); we do not guarantee their accuracy or completeness.

We may improve, change or discontinue features. We will not materially reduce the core features of a paid plan during a billing period you have paid for. If a change materially disadvantages you, you may cancel with effect from the change and receive a pro-rata refund of fees you have prepaid.

3. Accounts

• You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into binding contracts.
• Please provide accurate information, keep your password confidential and tell us immediately if you suspect unauthorized use of your account. You are responsible for activity under your account.
• Shared demo account: in the public demo, "Log in" uses one account shared by all demo visitors. Do not upload confidential or personal data to it; its data may be viewed by others and reset at any time.

4. Your content and data

You keep all rights to the data you upload ("Your Content"). You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, process, display and transmit Your Content only as needed to provide the Service to you — including geocoding through third-party providers — and, if you create a share link or list properties publicly, to show it to the people you choose.

You confirm that you have all necessary rights to Your Content and, where it contains personal data of third parties, a lawful basis to upload it. For business customers, we process such personal data as a processor on your behalf; our data processing agreement (Art. 28 GDPR) is available on request and forms part of these Terms once concluded. Please keep your own copies of Your Content.

5. Acceptable use

You must not:

• use the Service in breach of any law or third-party rights;
• upload unlawful, infringing, misleading or malicious content, or misrepresent properties;
• access other users' accounts or data, or circumvent security, access controls or usage limits;
• overload, disrupt, scrape or — except where permitted by law — reverse engineer the Service;
• resell or sublicense the Service without our written permission.

We may suspend access where necessary to prevent serious harm, giving notice where reasonably possible.

6. Broker and company plans

If you list properties or record sales as a broker or company, you are solely responsible for complying with all real estate licensing, disclosure, fair housing, advertising and anti-money-laundering rules that apply to you. Commission-sharing figures shown in the Service (for example an 85/15 split) are indicative and become binding only under a separate written agreement with us. Team plans may be used by up to the number of users included in your plan.

7. Prices, subscriptions and payment

• Plans and prices are shown on our pricing page and at checkout. Prices are in U.S. dollars. Sales tax, VAT or similar taxes are added where required by law and shown before you pay.
• Automatic renewal. Paid plans are subscriptions that renew automatically for successive billing periods of the same length (currently one month) at the then-current price until you cancel. By subscribing, you authorize us — through our payment provider Stripe — to charge your payment method at the start of each billing period. Before you subscribe, we show you the price, the billing period and how to cancel, and ask for your express consent.
• Payments are processed by Stripe, whose terms apply to payment processing. If a payment fails, we may retry it and, after notifying you, suspend paid features until payment is made.
• Price changes. We will notify you at least 30 days before a price change applies to your subscription. It takes effect from your next billing period after the notice period, and you may cancel before then. For consumers in the EU/EEA, a price increase only applies if you agree to it; if you do not agree, either of us may end the subscription at the end of the current billing period.
• If we offer subscriptions with a term of one year or longer, we will remind you 15 to 45 days before each renewal.

8. Cancellation

You can cancel your subscription at any time, without giving a reason and without any fee:

• in your account under Account → Plan → Cancel subscription;
• with the "Cancel contracts here" link at the bottom of every page — no login required;
• or by email to sales@projectmodularity.com.

Unless you choose a different date, your cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. You keep access to paid features until then and will not be charged again. We confirm every cancellation by email. Either party's right to terminate for good cause (extraordinary termination) is not affected.

We may cancel your subscription with 30 days' notice to the end of a billing period, or immediately for good cause — for example a serious breach of these Terms or non-payment.

9. Refunds

14-day money-back guarantee. If you subscribe to a paid plan for the first time, you can request a full refund of your first payment within 14 days of that payment. Your subscription then ends immediately.

After these 14 days, payments are non-refundable, except (a) where required by law, (b) if we charged you in error — for example a duplicate or incorrect charge — or (c) if we materially reduce or discontinue the Service during a period you have paid for, in which case we refund the unused part pro rata.

How to request a refund: use Account → Plan → Request a refund, or email sales@projectmodularity.com with your account email and the date of the charge. Approved refunds are issued to the original payment method, usually within 5 to 10 business days. Enterprise plans follow your individual agreement. This guarantee does not limit your statutory rights, including the right of withdrawal in section 10.

10. Right of withdrawal for consumers in the EU, EEA and UK

If you are a consumer, you have the following statutory right of withdrawal:

Right of withdrawal

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day of the conclusion of the contract.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, you must inform us (Bruno Noel Paschmann, GlobEstate, [Street address and apartment/suite], New York, NY 10027, United States of America; email: sales@projectmodularity.com; phone: [Phone number]) of your decision to withdraw from this contract by an unequivocal statement (e.g. a letter sent by post or an email). You may use the attached model withdrawal form, but it is not obligatory.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

Effects of withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

If you requested to begin the performance of services during the withdrawal period, you shall pay us an amount which is in proportion to what has been provided until you have communicated to us your withdrawal from this contract, in comparison with the full coverage of the contract. Under our 14-day money-back guarantee (section 9), we waive this amount and refund your first payment in full.

Model withdrawal form

(Complete and return this form only if you wish to withdraw from the contract.)

11. Availability and support

We aim to keep the Service available at all times but cannot guarantee uninterrupted operation. Maintenance and outages of third-party services (such as maps or payments) may cause interruptions. Support is available by email at sales@projectmodularity.com.

12. Intellectual property

The Service — including its software, design, texts and graphics, but excluding Your Content and third-party content — is protected by intellectual property laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Service for its intended purpose for the duration of your use. Third-party content such as map data remains the property of its owners and is subject to their terms and attribution requirements; open-source components are licensed under their own licenses. If you send us feedback, we may use it without obligation to you.

13. Third-party services

The Service uses Google Maps Platform features. By using them, you agree to be bound by the Google Maps/Google Earth Additional Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy. We are not responsible for third-party services or websites linked from the Service.

14. Warranty and liability

14.1 Consumers in the EU/EEA and business customers subject to German law

We are liable without limitation for damage caused intentionally or through gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, under the German Product Liability Act, and where we have given a guarantee or fraudulently concealed a defect. In cases of slight negligence, we are liable only for breach of an essential contractual obligation — an obligation whose fulfilment makes the proper performance of the contract possible in the first place and on whose fulfilment you may regularly rely — and our liability is limited to the damage typically foreseeable when the contract was concluded. Otherwise, liability for slight negligence is excluded. For the free demo, we are liable only for intent and gross negligence, except for injury to life, body or health. Statutory warranty rights of consumers remain unaffected.

14.2 All other users, including users in the United States

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE, ITS DATA OR ITS MAP CONTENT WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, AND OUR TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM AND (B) US$100. NOTHING IN THESE TERMS LIMITS LIABILITY FOR FRAUD, GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, OR ANY LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE LIMITED BY LAW. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.

15. Indemnification (business customers)

Business customers will indemnify us against third-party claims, including reasonable legal costs, arising from Your Content or from their breach of these Terms or of applicable law (including real estate licensing rules), to the extent they are responsible for the breach.

16. Term and termination

A free account runs for an indefinite period; you can delete it at any time via Account → Profile → Delete account & data. Paid subscriptions end as described in section 8. When your account ends, your right to use the Service ends and we delete Your Content as described in our Privacy Policy, so please export anything you need beforehand.

17. Changes to these Terms

We may change these Terms for valid reasons, such as changes in the law or new features. We will notify you of changes by email at least 30 days before they take effect. For business customers, a change is deemed accepted if you do not object before it takes effect; we will point this out in our notice. For consumers, we will ask for your consent to any material change. If you object or do not consent, either of us may end the contract when the change takes effect. Changes to the main obligations or prices always require your consent where the law requires it.

18. Governing law and jurisdiction

• Consumers in the EU/EEA: the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany apply, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). This choice of law does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory provisions of the law of the country where you habitually reside, and you may bring proceedings in the courts of that country.
• Business customers in the EU/EEA: German law applies, excluding the CISG. If you are a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the exclusive place of jurisdiction is [German court location, e.g. Munich, Germany].
• All other users, including users in the United States: the laws of the State of New York and applicable U.S. federal law apply, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. The state and federal courts located in New York County, New York, have jurisdiction, and you and we consent to personal jurisdiction there. Where the law of your home state entitles consumers to bring claims locally, that right is not affected.
• In all cases, mandatory consumer protection laws of your place of residence remain unaffected.

19. Consumer dispute resolution

We are neither willing nor obliged to take part in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board (§ 36 German Consumer Dispute Resolution Act, VSBG). If you have a problem, please contact us first — we will do our best to find a solution.

20. Final provisions

If any provision of these Terms is invalid, the remaining provisions remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. We may transfer our rights and obligations to a successor with notice to you; consumers may then end the contract. We may send notices to the email address in your account. These Terms are written in English; if we provide a translation, the English version prevails to the extent permitted by law.
