The Application developed by Calmido identifies who is calling, distinguishes spam from reliable calls, and provides information so that Users can make an informed decision about whether to answer. In this way, Calmido promotes peace, security, and meaningful telephone communication between people. The Application is offered for its intended use as described in Article 4.1 of these Terms and Conditions, without commercial influence from third parties. |

| 4.4 | After termination of the Agreement, the Data will remain available to the User for a period of six (6) months, during which time the User will have the opportunity to transfer the Data.

| 4.5 | Calmido is not responsible for the completeness of the Data provided by the User. |
| 4.6 | Calmido will take all measures that can reasonably be expected and will ensure that the information and Data provided by the User and, where applicable, traffic data within the meaning of the Telecommunications Act that is generated when using the Services, is protected against loss, theft, unauthorized access, and modification by unauthorized users. Calmido is not liable for any damage in the event of loss or damage to Data. |
