For using Atlas KaaTai (Free / Pro / Premium / Agency) and the Boxmethode · ← Overview
These General Terms and Conditions (T&C) apply to the use of the Atlas platform under the domain atlas.kaatai.de, the Boxmethode under the domain boxmethode.kaatai.de as well as all associated tools and sub-pages, operated by:
Kahraman Atalay · Deisterstr. 54 · 31785 Hameln · Germany
Email: beratung@kaatai.de
(hereinafter the "Provider")
Use of the free functions requires no registration and does not conclude any paid contract. By using them you declare your agreement with these terms and the privacy policy.
By voluntarily registering with an email address (magic-link procedure), a free-of-charge account is created that enables access to workspace functions up to the respective tier limit: saved cell bookmarks, twin sets, postal-code configs and compare snapshots in the Atlas, saved box projects in the Boxmethode. The account applies to the Atlas and the Boxmethode jointly.
Use is currently free of charge. Should paid services be offered in the future, a corresponding contract is concluded only through a separate, express order; prices and terms will then be presented clearly in advance.
There are currently no fees for use. If paid services are introduced in the future, prices, payment methods and any right of withdrawal will be clearly stated before the contract is concluded; existing users will be informed in advance.
Free use can be ended at any time without notice. You can have a created account deleted at any time (informally by email to beratung@kaatai.de). Deleting the account deletes all saved content in the Atlas and the Boxmethode. There is currently no paid subscription.
As no paid contracts are currently concluded, there is no reference to a right of withdrawal. Should paid services for consumers (§13 BGB) be offered in the future, the statutory right of withdrawal (§§ 355 ff. BGB) applies; we will then inform you separately before the contract is concluded.
The Provider is liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence as well as for damages arising from injury to life, body or health. In the case of simple negligence, the Provider is liable only for the breach of material contractual obligations (cardinal obligations) and limited to foreseeable damages typical of the contract.
Liability for the timeliness, accuracy or completeness of the data provided is excluded to the extent legally permissible. The data is based on public sources, which each site names itself: the Atlas in the Glossary / Data sources, the Boxmethode under Sources and licences. In the Atlas it may be distorted or suppressed by statistical anonymisation procedures (SAFE).
The processing of personal data is governed by the separate privacy policy, which forms part of this contract.
The Provider reserves the right to amend these terms. Material changes are communicated to users at least 30 days before they take effect by email. In the event of objection within this period, the contract ends at the next possible date.
German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. The place of jurisdiction is Hameln, insofar as the contractual partner is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law.
Should individual provisions be invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions remains unaffected (severability clause).
Dispute resolution: The EU Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/. The Provider is neither obliged nor willing to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.
In the Atlas all functions are currently available free of charge: all indicators, all tools, the postal-code export in Google Ads / Meta Ads format and the personal workspace (up to 20 saved items per type). Specially protected indicators under Art. 9 GDPR (religion, origin, electoral parties) are unlocked after a short manual review. Availability of the platform is sought but not guaranteed.
You may use the Atlas data for your own research, marketing campaigns and consulting projects. Use in Google Ads, Meta Ads and comparable advertising platforms via CSV export of postal-code lists is explicitly permitted.
The following is not permitted:
The points of interest (for example shops, practices and pharmacies), the counts per grid cell derived from them and the places and districts of the place search come from OpenStreetMap.

Attribution: © OpenStreetMap contributors, openstreetmap.org/copyright. How the Atlas selects and counts the data is described in the glossary.
The Boxmethode shows states, events and data over time. All functions are currently available free of charge. With an account you can save, open, change and delete your own box projects, up to 20 in the free tier. Availability of the site is sought but not guaranteed.
The data and maps of the Boxmethode come from sources with different licences. Which source is under which licence is listed on the page Sources and licences. You may reuse these data under the terms of the respective licence. Quotations from books and newspapers appear on the site only within the scope of the right to quote; any reuse is governed by law.
