Terms of Use for Visitors and Users of the BB Platform

1. Introduction and Scope

1.1 Welcome

Welcome to the BB Platform, an online service operated by Sky Pleasure International Ltd.

1.2 Binding Nature of the Terms of Use

The following Terms of Use govern access to and use of the BB Platform—including its web and mobile versions—by both visitors and registered users. By accessing or using the platform, you agree to be legally bound by these terms.

1.3 Supplementary Regulations

Please also refer to our Privacy Policy and any applicable supplementary guidelines (e.g. Community Rules), which are also part of these Terms of Use.

1.4 Purpose of the Terms of Use

These Terms of Use apply to the use of the online platform "BB" (hereinafter referred to as the "BB Platform"), operated by Sky Pleasure International Ltd. The term "BB Platform" is used below when referring to services or actions of the company.

1.5 Scope of Application

These terms govern the use of the online services of Sky Pleasure International Ltd., particularly the website and mobile applications (collectively: "BB Platform"), by visitors and users who seek information on listings or wish to contact listers through the provided contact features.

1.6 Consent Through Use

By accessing or using the BB Platform—including sending messages, enquiries or other communications—you acknowledge these Terms of Use as binding. Please read them carefully as they contain important information regarding your rights and obligations.

2. Conditions of Use and Nature of the Platform

2.1 Platform Scope

These Terms of Use apply to all visitors and users of the BB Platform, operated by Sky Pleasure International Ltd. The platform includes the website, mobile applications, digital interfaces (APIs), and all associated services accessible via internet-enabled devices such as smartphones, tablets or computers.

2.2 Age Restriction

The BB Platform is exclusively intended for adults aged 18 or older. By accessing or using the platform—even without registering—you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use.

2.3 Purpose of the Platform

The platform provides a digital infrastructure for publishing listings by independent providers. Interested users may contact providers via the contact options listed in the advertisements (e.g. email, phone, SMS). The company facilitates the technical forwarding of the enquiry to the respective provider. Direct contact occurs only with the provider's consent and outside the platform.

2.4 No Involvement in Contracts

Contracts for paid or unpaid services are exclusively formed between users and providers. The company is not a party to these agreements and assumes no responsibility for their creation, content, or fulfilment.

2.5 Changes to the Terms of Use

The company reserves the right to amend these Terms of Use at any time. Users will be notified appropriately of any significant changes. Continued use of the platform after such changes implies acceptance of the revised terms.

3. Registration and User Accounts

3.1 Registration and Activation

To access certain features of the BB Platform (e.g. creating favourites lists, leaving feedback and ratings on listings, accessing the protected members area), registration is required.
Submitting the registration form constitutes a non-binding request to use extended platform features. There is no entitlement to registration or usage. The company expressly reserves the right to reject or revoke registrations without giving reasons.
Registration and use of the BB Platform via a user account are free of charge. Registration does not create any payment obligations. Fee-based services, such as subscriptions, are offered separately and clearly marked.
User account activation is at the sole discretion of the company. Platform use begins only after activation. No binding usage contract is formed through activation alone.

3.2 Required Information

A valid and permanently accessible email address is required for registration. A mobile number may also be requested. Users must provide accurate, complete, and current information and update it promptly upon any changes. Changes to contact details must be reported to the company.

3.3 Username and Authentication

Upon registration, users are automatically assigned a username, which can later be customised in the members area.
Login is performed via passwordless authentication. A one-time password (OTP) is generated for each login and sent to the registered email address or mobile number. The OTP must be treated as confidential and must not be shared. Access to the user account is only possible with a valid OTP.

3.4 Personal Responsibility

After successful registration, a personal user account is created. Users must safeguard their account access and not share credentials with third parties. Third-party use is prohibited.
Users are responsible for all activities conducted via their account, unless an unauthorised use occurred without their fault and was promptly reported to the company.

3.5 Prohibition of Multiple Accounts

Only one user account is allowed per individual. Multiple registrations are prohibited and will result in the suspension of all affected accounts.

3.6 Suspension and Deletion

In cases of breaches of these Terms of Use, false registration information, suspected misuse, or other contractual violations, the company reserves the right to temporarily suspend or permanently delete user accounts. In severe cases, permanent bans may be issued. There is no entitlement to reinstatement.

3.7 Verification as a "Verified Member"

Registered users may opt to become a "Verified Member" through identity verification—via the Veriff authenticity verification process or a credit card check.
The Veriff method involves uploading a real-time selfie and a photo of a valid ID. The system automatically checks data consistency.
The credit card check does not involve any charge; it merely validates the card details.
Verification is voluntary and free. Verified status enhances trust but does not entitle users to access or preferential treatment from providers.

3.8 Re-Registration Ban After Suspension

Users whose accounts were suspended or deleted due to violations may not re-register or create new accounts. Re-registration requires the company’s explicit written consent. Failure to comply may result in immediate, renewed suspension.

3.9 Inactive User Accounts

The company reserves the right to deactivate or delete inactive accounts after a reasonable period. Users will be notified—if technically feasible—before permanent deletion.

3.10 System-Related Notifications

By registering, users agree to receive system-relevant messages (e.g. security notices, feature updates, or legal adjustments) via email or internal platform notifications.

4. Paid Features and Memberships

4.1 Access to Paid Features

Some features on the BB Platform are subject to a fee and are only available to registered users with an active paid membership.

4.2 Labelling and Booking

Paid features are clearly labelled as such on the platform. Activation is only possible through an explicit, user-initiated booking process.

4.3 Information on Prices and Services

The current prices, durations, and scope of services for paid memberships are accessible to registered users on the BB Platform.

4.4 Conclusion of Contract

Booking a paid membership constitutes a separate contractual relationship. The applicable contract terms (including right of withdrawal, payment methods, and cancellation periods) are transparently provided during the booking process.

4.5 No Automatic Contract Formation

Mere registration does not result in a paid contractual relationship. Paid features are only activated through a deliberate and active booking by the user.

5. Contact and Message Forwarding

5.1 Means of Contact

Contact with a provider is made via communication channels provided by the BB Platform, including a central email address, telephone number, SMS, Telegram, Signal, request form or contact form. Messages or enquiries sent through these channels are initially received by the company.

5.2 Preliminary Screening and Filtering

The company reserves the right to technically process, editorially review, and filter incoming messages at its own discretion. Messages with inappropriate, offensive, discriminatory, ambiguous, or clearly unserious content, or that violate these Terms of Use or legal provisions, may be rejected or deleted without justification. There is no entitlement to forwarding or response.

5.3 Forwarding and Communication

Forwarding of suitable enquiries to the respective provider is done exclusively within the platform’s designated communication structure. Direct contact between the user and provider only occurs with the provider’s express consent—and solely for the purpose of arranging a specific meeting (date).
Further contact—particularly before or after the agreed meeting—is not intended and expressly discouraged by providers. Users agree to respect this and not to attempt repeated or unsolicited contact.
All communication is subject to the provider’s explicit request and must relate solely to the arranged meeting. Ongoing communication or a relationship is not supported and is not part of the platform’s services.

5.4 Processing of Transmitted Data

All personal data and content submitted during contact are processed solely for the purpose of handling and potentially forwarding the enquiry. For more information, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

5.5 Disclaimer for Direct Contact

Should direct contact occur outside the intended communication structure, it is at the sole responsibility of both parties. The company accepts no liability for content, conduct, outcomes, or any consequences arising from such independently initiated contact or meetings. The company does not act as intermediary, moderator, or support in these cases.

6. Ratings and Feedback

6.1 User Ratings

Users who have arranged and completed a meeting through the BB Platform may submit a rating for the respective provider. Ratings consist of a star rating and an optional written comment.
Submitting a rating is possible even without prior registration. The company provides suitable technical means for this (e.g. a one-time link sent after the meeting).
Only registered and logged-in users can view published ratings. Ratings are not visible to unregistered visitors.

6.2 Moderation and Publication

The company reserves the right to review submitted ratings editorially, shorten them, reject them entirely or partially, or delete them. This applies in particular to content that is:

• offensive, discriminatory, defamatory, or clearly untrue,
• containing advertisements, personal data, or contact details,
• in breach of legal provisions or these Terms of Use.
  There is no entitlement to publication or reinstatement of a removed rating.

6.3 Provider Ratings

Providers may also rate users after a completed meeting. These ratings consist of an internal star rating and optional feedback.
This feedback is only visible to the respective user within the protected members’ area and is not publicly displayed. It is subject to the same moderation rules as user ratings.

6.4 Responsibility and Misuse

Rating content is created solely by the individual authors. The company does not guarantee accuracy or truthfulness but will investigate and remove unlawful content upon notice.
In cases of intentional or repeated abuse of the rating system—especially false information, manipulations, or breaches of rating rules—the company reserves the right to restrict, suspend, or permanently delete user accounts.

7. User Obligations

7.1 Truthful Information

Users commit to providing only truthful, complete, and current personal information when using the BB Platform. This especially applies when contacting providers, creating user profiles, and booking paid services.

7.2 Consequences of False Information

The company accepts no responsibility if a meeting or service is declined or cancelled by a provider due to false or misleading information—e.g. regarding age, appearance, or behaviour. Refunds in such cases are excluded.

7.3 Personal Use of the Account

The user account is intended for personal use only by the registered individual. Sharing credentials or allowing third-party access is prohibited. Users are responsible for all account activity unless the unauthorised use occurred without fault and was promptly reported.

7.4 Prohibition of Platform Circumvention

Users may not engage in actions aimed at bypassing the structure or processes of the BB Platform, including:

• contacting providers directly outside the designated communication channels,
• bypassing paid features or booking procedures.

7.5 Prohibited Content and Violations

It is prohibited to publish or transmit content via the BB Platform that:

• violates applicable laws,
• uses copyrighted, personal, or trademarked content of others without consent,
• is offensive, discriminatory, threatening, sexually explicit, or glorifies violence,
• includes child pornography, abuse, degrading or otherwise criminal content,
• contains advertisements, spam, chain letters, fraudulent offers or misleading information.
  Users may only post content for which they possess the necessary rights. The company may remove content without notice, suspend user accounts in case of violations, and notify law enforcement if needed.

7.6 Conduct During Meetings

Users must behave respectfully, appropriately, and lawfully during meetings with providers. In particular, it is prohibited to:

• pressure the provider into revealing personal contact information (e.g. phone numbers, emails, social media),
• request or insist on unprotected sexual acts,
• record audio, photos or videos without explicit consent,
• encourage the provider to consume alcohol, drugs, or other substances,
• contact the provider uninvited via unofficial channels (e.g. social media) after a meeting.
  Providers may terminate the meeting immediately due to inappropriate conduct—without providing specific reasons. Such termination does not entitle users to a refund. The agreed fee remains fully payable.
  The company may permanently suspend affected accounts and take further action.

7.7 Notification of Criminal Acts

The company reserves the right to report suspected criminal acts—especially involving sexual assault, threats of violence, human trafficking, drug use, or contact with minors—to the appropriate authorities.

7.8 Prohibition of Sharing Confidential Content

It is forbidden to publish or share ratings, feedback, or confidential materials—such as screenshots of sedcards, user profiles, or chat histories—without the explicit consent of the affected party.

8. Booking, Prepayment and Payment Processing

8.1 Deposit and Prepayment in Certain Cases

In the following cases, a deposit (typically 30% of the agreed fee plus any travel costs) or full prepayment is required:

• if the planned meeting location is more than 100 km from the provider’s residence or place of business,
• for bookings at the customer’s home when no verifiable address is provided,
• for bookings by new customers where the planned meeting lasts more than 12 hours,
• if the customer explicitly requests full prepayment,
• if the customer has cancelled more than 50% of previous bookings.
  The user is informed during the booking process about the payment requirement and the specific amount due.

8.2 Payment Handling via the Platform

In such cases, the BB Platform accepts payment on behalf of the provider based on a written authorisation. The payment is held in escrow until the meeting occurs and is then forwarded to the provider.
Note: Providers are self-employed individuals. The platform does not act as a legal intermediary, contractual party, or invoice issuer for provider services. It does not influence bookings and cannot compel providers to complete meetings.

8.3 Cancellations and Refunds

If the customer cancels a booking, the deposit is retained. The amount is credited to the user account and can be used for future bookings within two years.
Cash refunds are excluded. After two years, unused credit expires without compensation.
If the provider cancels, the amount is fully refunded unless the customer opts to keep it as credit.

8.4 No Contractual Involvement of the Platform

The BB Platform acts only as a technical facilitator and payment processor. No contractual relationship is formed with the company itself. The contract exists solely between the user and the provider.
The platform accepts no liability for cancellations, agreements, or meeting content.

8.5 Security Deposit for Repeated Uncommitted Enquiries

If a user contacts at least five providers, receives confirmations, but books no meetings, the platform may require a €200 security deposit to enable further enquiries.
If a meeting is arranged thereafter, the deposit is offset. If no meeting occurs within 30 days, the deposit is forfeited.

8.6 Payment Methods and Deadlines

Available payment methods depend on booking lead time:

• Bank transfer: possible only for bookings made at least 48 hours in advance with timely payment receipt,
• Credit card: available at any time, especially for short-notice bookings,
• Western Union or similar services: only for bookings made at least 24 hours in advance with proof of timely payment.
  Payment details are provided after booking. Full, on-time payment is required for the booking to become binding.

9. Technical Use and Intellectual Property

9.1 Intellectual Property

All content on the BB Platform—including listings, text, images, logos, reviews, software elements and design components—is protected by copyright and/or trademark laws. Any reproduction, distribution, editing or public display without written consent is prohibited. This includes content provided by users or providers unless explicitly permitted.

9.2 Prohibited Technical Interference

Automated systems or software to access the BB Platform (e.g. bots, crawlers, scrapers) are prohibited. Specifically, the following are not allowed:

• automated data extraction or storage (e.g. listings, contact details),
• bypassing security mechanisms,
• inserting malicious code, viruses, or scripts,
• manipulating processes or disrupting operations.

9.3 No Systematic Data Export

Systematic copying, archiving, saving or exporting of listings, reviews or other content—whether manually or automatically—is forbidden.

9.4 No Resale or Commercial Redistribution

Platform access or content must not be sold, rented, or shared with third parties—whether for payment or free of charge.

9.5 No Disruption or Overloading of the Platform

Actions that overload or impair platform functionality are prohibited. This includes flooding, denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, mass requests, or interference with server infrastructure.

9.6 Misuse of Rating Systems

Feedback and rating systems may only be used based on genuine personal experiences. The following are prohibited:

• self-ratings,
• coordinated or paid reviews,
• artificially boosting profiles,
• any form of deception or reputation manipulation.
  Violations may result in rating deletion, account suspension, or legal action.

9.7 Avoidance of Technical Access Restrictions

Bypassing technical access controls—such as geo-blocks, age verification, or IP blocks—is forbidden. This includes using VPNs, proxies or similar services for circumvention.

10. Third-Party Content and Disclaimer

10.1 Content from Providers and Users

Content published on the BB Platform—including listings, descriptions, images, ratings or comments—is submitted by independently operating providers or registered users. The company merely provides the technical infrastructure and assumes no responsibility for the accuracy, completeness, legality, or appropriateness of such content.

10.2 No Monitoring Obligation

The company is not obliged to actively monitor or verify content submitted by providers or users. However, if specific unlawful content is brought to the company’s attention (e.g. via contact form), it will be promptly blocked or removed.

10.3 Exclusion of Liability for Third-Party Content

The company accepts no liability for damages or issues resulting from third-party content on the BB Platform. This includes:

• false or misleading details in listings,
• inaccurate ratings or comments,
• unlawful, offensive, or misleading content submitted by users or providers.

10.4 Responsibility of Providers

Providers are solely responsible for compliance with legal requirements—particularly regarding content, image rights, personality rights, age verification, or contractual engagements. The platform has no influence over content, negotiations, or agreements outside of its structure.

10.5 External Website Links

The BB Platform may include links to third-party websites or services. The company is not responsible for the content, functionality, availability, or security of such external offerings. Use of external links is at the user's own risk.

11. Warranty, Availability, and Technical Limitations

11.1 No Guarantee of Uninterrupted Availability

The company endeavours to keep the BB Platform available at all times. However, brief downtimes—due to maintenance, security updates, or external server issues—cannot be ruled out. Users will be informed of planned maintenance where technically possible.

11.2 Maintenance and System Outages

Temporary restrictions in availability may occur due to maintenance, technical faults, force majeure, or other circumstances beyond the company’s control. There is no entitlement to constant availability or uninterrupted use of the platform.

11.3 No Warranty for Content and Functions

No warranty is provided for the accuracy, completeness, legality, or timeliness of third-party content. Nor is it guaranteed that all platform features will function flawlessly across all devices or browsers.

11.4 Use at Own Risk

Use of the platform is at the user's own risk. The company assumes no liability for damages arising from use or technical issues unless caused intentionally or by gross negligence.

11.5 System Requirements and User Responsibility

Users are responsible for ensuring that their devices and software (e.g. browser, operating system, security settings) are compatible with the BB Platform. The company does not guarantee flawless performance in all technical environments.

11.6 No Liability for Third-Party Systems

The company is not liable for disruptions, outages, or data loss caused by third-party services, such as hosting providers, payment services, email providers, or external communication platforms.

Users may delete their BB Platform account at any time without providing reasons. This option is available in the account settings within the members area.
Upon deletion, access to the platform and all related features ends. Anonymous and non-personalised content (e.g. ratings) may remain visible.

12.2 Termination by the Company

The company reserves the right to suspend or delete user accounts at any time, particularly in cases of:

• violations of these Terms of Use or legal provisions,
• signs of misuse or security concerns,
• prolonged inactivity.
  Where technically possible, users will be notified of such actions.

12.3 Consequences of Termination

Some data may be stored temporarily due to legal requirements (e.g. billing, documentation) before permanent removal.

13. Termination by the Platform

The company may suspend or permanently block accounts if:

• there are repeated or serious breaches of these Terms (e.g. circumvention, misconduct, false information),
• there are indications of criminal behaviour, misuse, or identity fraud,
• the account has been inactive for more than five years,
• the platform is discontinued or significantly altered for legal, technical, or business reasons.

Users with more than five years of inactivity will be notified by email or system message at least two weeks before planned deletion. If no response is received, the account is deleted.

13.3 Consequences of Termination

In case of termination due to a breach of the Terms of Use, any account balance will not be refunded.
Even termination for operational or technical reasons does not entitle users to reimbursement of unused amounts.
Anonymous and non-personalised content (e.g. ratings) may remain visible.
Invoices for paid services (e.g. VIP access or verified status) are stored in accordance with legal retention periods.

13.4 Notice of Permanent Ban

In cases of serious or criminal violations, the company may issue an immediate and permanent ban without prior notice. Re-registration by the same individual is prohibited in such cases.

The BB Platform is strictly limited to adults aged 18 or over. Registration, booking, or use of services by minors is strictly prohibited.

It is forbidden to publish, offer, or forward content that violates applicable youth protection laws. This includes, in particular:

It is strictly forbidden to solicit providers via the platform or communications originating therefrom to switch to other platforms, brokerage services, or private arrangements.

Violations of this anti-solicitation clause constitute a serious breach of duty and may result in immediate suspension of the user account. The company further reserves the right to take legal action and assert claims for damages.

15.4 Protection of Providers as Platform Clients

Providers listed on the BB Platform are self-employed entrepreneurs who use the platform as a service. To protect them from unfair solicitation, the BB Platform does not tolerate commercial misuse or interference by third parties.

16. Final Provisions

Exclusively the laws of the Republic of Cyprus apply. The place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with the use of the BB Platform is, to the extent legally permissible, the company’s registered office.

16.2 Contract Language

The contractual languages are German and English. Both versions are provided. In the event of discrepancies or interpretation issues, both the German and English versions are legally authoritative.

16.3 Severability Clause

Should any provision of these Terms of Use be wholly or partially invalid or unenforceable, the validity of the remaining provisions remains unaffected. The ineffective provision shall be replaced by one that most closely reflects its intended purpose.

16.4 No Assignment Without Consent

Rights and obligations under these Terms of Use may not be assigned or transferred to third parties without the express written consent of the platform operator.
