Terms of Use

Updated: 2026 · Terms governing the use of PlanMeasure (app) and the associated website

§ 1 Scope

These terms of use apply to the use of the iPad app PlanMeasure and the website planmeasure.nordicdatahub.de, both offered by Niklaus Olsen (Nordic Data Hub), Taruper Hauptstr. 164, 24943 Flensburg, Germany (the "Provider").

§ 2 Contract & provider

The app is distributed through the Apple App Store. The contract for the purchase / subscription of the app is concluded between the user and Apple Distribution International Limited. The Apple Media Services Terms apply additionally.

The Provider is the developer and copyright holder of the app.

§ 3 Scope of services

PlanMeasure is an iPad app for measuring plans, photos and map snapshots, with the following functional areas:

• Import of photos, PDFs and Apple Maps snapshots
• Scale calibration
• Distance, area and angle measurement
• Annotation with Apple Pencil
• Layers, symbols, export as PDF/PNG

The exact functional scope depends on the respective app version and the chosen tier (Free or Pro).

§ 4 Tiers & prices

PlanMeasure is available in the following tiers:

• Free: permanently free, with limited functionality (3 projects, 1 layer, 10 symbols, no map import, no export – see website)
• Pro: €4.99 per month, cancellable monthly (unlimited projects, map import, up to 10 layers, full symbol browser, PDF/PNG export, iCloud sync)

Billing is processed through the user's Apple ID account. The subscription renews automatically for the chosen period unless cancelled at least 24 hours before expiry. The subscription is managed and cancelled in iOS settings under "Apple ID → Subscriptions".

§ 5 Right of use

The user is granted a simple, non-transferable right to use the app on devices linked to their Apple ID. Modification, decompilation, reverse engineering or resale of the app is not permitted, except where mandatorily allowed by law.

§ 6 User obligations

• The user is responsible for the accuracy of the scale calibration and the choice of suitable input data.
• The user verifies independently whether the values calculated in the app are sufficiently accurate for their use case.
• The app must not be used for safety-critical, regulatory or cadastral-binding purposes.

§ 7 Liability

The Provider is liable in accordance with statutory provisions in cases of intent and gross negligence, in case of injury to life, body and health, and under the German Product Liability Act.

For ordinary negligence, the Provider is only liable for breaches of essential contractual obligations (so-called cardinal duties), and only for the foreseeable damage typical of the contract. Any further liability is excluded to the extent permitted by law.

In particular, the Provider assumes no liability for the accuracy of the values calculated in the app, as these depend significantly on input data and the care taken during calibration.

§ 8 Availability

The Provider endeavours to keep the app and the website continuously available, but does not guarantee uninterrupted availability. Maintenance work, updates or technical issues may lead to temporary restrictions.

§ 9 Right of withdrawal / refunds

Purchases and subscriptions are processed through Apple. Refunds are granted exclusively in accordance with Apple's terms. Requests must be addressed directly to Apple: reportaproblem.apple.com.

§ 10 Dispute resolution

The EU Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution: ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. We are neither obliged nor willing to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.

§ 11 Final provisions

German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. For consumers, this choice of law applies only insofar as it does not deprive them of the protection granted by mandatory provisions of the law of the country of their habitual residence.

Should individual provisions of these terms of use be invalid, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions.
