pd-planet operates the website DiffHub ("DiffHub", "we", "us"). Full legal notice: Imprint.
Single point of contact (EU Digital Services Act, Art. 11 and 12): authorities and users can reach us at support@diffhub.io. We communicate in English and German.
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of DiffHub, including free content, user accounts, the DiffHub Pro subscription, classes ("Training Grounds"), class memberships and the Creator plan.
A consumer is anyone who uses DiffHub for purposes that are mainly outside their trade, business, craft or profession. A business user acts for such purposes. Creators who sell memberships act as business users (section 9).
Conflicting terms of a business user do not apply, even if we do not object to them. Individual agreements in text form take precedence over these Terms.
We may develop, change or discontinue features, provided this is reasonable for you taking our interests into account (for example for technical, security or legal reasons). We do not remove features you have already paid for during the paid period without refunding the unused part.
Free services are provided without a guarantee of availability. For paid services we aim for high availability but maintenance, security measures and events outside our control can cause interruptions.
A contract for using the platform is formed when you complete registration. You can delete your account at any time in your settings. Paid subscriptions must be cancelled separately; deleting an account cancels active subscriptions with effect from the end of the paid period.
You keep all rights to content you post (text, images, workflows, courses, comments). You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, display and make it available on DiffHub, and to adapt it technically (for example resizing or translating), for as long as it is on the platform and for a reasonable period after removal for backups and legal obligations. For content in a paid class, this licence includes making it available to that class's members.
You confirm that you hold the necessary rights to what you post and that it does not infringe the rights of others.
You can report content you believe is illegal or breaks these Terms using the report function where available, or by email to support@diffhub.io. Please include the exact URL, why you consider it illegal, your name and email (except for reports about child sexual abuse material), and a statement that your report is accurate and complete to the best of your knowledge.
We review reports promptly, diligently and objectively. If we remove or restrict content or an account, we tell the affected user the reasons (statement of reasons) unless the law prevents this. You can object to our decision by replying to that message; a different person reviews the objection. Users in the EU can also turn to a certified out-of-court dispute settlement body under Art. 21 of the Digital Services Act.
If there are concrete indications of a breach, we may remove content, restrict features, withhold creator payouts connected to the breach, or suspend or terminate accounts. We choose the mildest effective measure and take into account the severity, whether it is repeated, and your legitimate interests. We do not monitor all content in advance.
Payments are processed by Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd. (Ireland). Card and payment details go directly to Stripe and are not stored by us.
When you buy a paid membership, your contract for access to the class is with us (pd-planet). We act as the seller (merchant of record): we set the checkout, collect payment, issue receipts, handle VAT and are responsible for your statutory consumer rights, including withdrawal and refunds. The creator provides and is responsible for the class content and community and receives a share of your payment from us.
Class content is created by independent creators, not by us. We do not review classes before they are published and do not guarantee any learning result, income or outcome that a creator promises.
If a class is materially different from its description or not provided, contact us. Your statutory rights for defective digital products (§§ 327 et seq. of the German Civil Code for consumers, or equivalent laws in your country) apply against us.
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 (pd-planet, Müllerstraße 3, 14482 Potsdam, Germany, email: support@diffhub.io, phone: +49 174 3813663) 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 model withdrawal form below, 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.
Early expiry for digital content
For contracts for the supply of digital content not on a tangible medium (such as access to course material), your right of withdrawal expires once we have begun performance, provided that you have expressly consented to us beginning before the end of the withdrawal period, have acknowledged that you thereby lose your right of withdrawal, and we have confirmed this to you on a durable medium.
Model withdrawal form
(Complete and return this form only if you wish to withdraw from the contract.)
To pd-planet, Müllerstraße 3, 14482 Potsdam, Germany, support@diffhub.io:
I/We (*) hereby give notice that I/We (*) withdraw from my/our (*) contract for the provision of the following service / supply of the following digital content (*):
Ordered on (*) / received on (*):
Name of consumer(s):
Address of consumer(s):
Signature of consumer(s) (only if this form is notified on paper):
Date:
(*) Delete as appropriate.
Beyond the statutory right, we handle refund requests fairly. Contact us if you are unhappy with a purchase.
As a creator you act as a business user (trader). You grant us the right to sell memberships to your class in our own name to members (section 7.1) and you provide the class content and community. You set the price and type of membership within the limits we offer.
You are responsible for your class content, for what you promise members, for moderating your community, and for complying with the law, including consumer protection, copyright, advertising and data protection law for data you process yourself. You must not make misleading claims about earnings or results.
For each member payment we keep a platform commission. The current rates are shown in your class settings under Pricing and Payouts; a custom rate may be agreed for a class. Card processing fees are paid by us out of the commission. The rest of the net payment (excluding VAT we collect and remit) is your revenue share. The rate in force when a payment is made applies to that payment. We announce changes to standard rates at least 30 days in advance; you may end your Creator plan before they take effect.
You are responsible for your own income tax and, where applicable, for VAT on your revenue share towards us. As the seller to members, we account for VAT on membership sales. If you are VAT-registered, tell us so we can issue self-billed invoices (credit notes) showing VAT on your share.
Under the EU Directive on Administrative Cooperation (DAC7) and the German Platform Tax Transparency Act (PStTG), we may be required to collect and verify your name, address, date of birth, tax identification number, VAT number and payout account, and to report your earnings to the German Federal Central Tax Office, which may share them with the tax authority of your country. If you do not provide this information after two reminders, we must withhold payouts until you do.
By default, classes in Discover are sorted by number of members. Visitors can choose another sort order and filter by search terms, category and price. Creators cannot pay for a better position.
If your Creator plan ends, your classes are unlisted and no new memberships are sold. Existing recurring memberships are cancelled at the end of their current period and members are informed. Sections 9.3 and 9.4 continue to apply to your remaining balance.
The DiffHub website, software, design and our own content are protected by copyright and other laws. Subject to these Terms, you may use them for personal purposes. You may not copy, distribute or create derivative works of them beyond what the law allows, except where content is published under an open licence that says otherwise.
Content in a class belongs to its creator. Your membership gives you a personal, non-transferable right to access it for as long as your membership is active. You may not share your access or redistribute class content.
Third-party content, including ComfyUI (open-source software) and linked models, remains the property of its owners and is subject to their licences.
DiffHub links to third-party websites and services. We are not responsible for their content or practices. Some links are affiliate links for which we may receive a commission at no extra cost to you. See our Privacy Policy for details.
We are liable without limitation:
For slight negligence we are liable only for breach of an essential contractual obligation, meaning an obligation whose fulfilment makes proper performance of the contract possible in the first place and on whose fulfilment you may regularly rely. In this case our liability is limited to the damage that is foreseeable and typical for this type of contract. Otherwise, liability for slight negligence is excluded.
These limits also apply to our employees, representatives and agents. Your statutory rights for defects in paid digital products remain unaffected.
Educational content is provided for information. It is not professional, legal or financial advice. Following tutorials, running workflows or installing third-party software is at your own responsibility within the limits above.
If you use DiffHub as a creator or other business user, you indemnify us against claims by third parties, including authorities, arising from content you publish or from your breach of these Terms or the law, including reasonable legal defence costs, unless you are not responsible for the breach. We will inform you promptly of such claims and let you take part in the defence.
The user contract runs for an indefinite period. You can terminate it at any time by deleting your account. We can terminate a free account with two weeks' notice. Paid subscriptions follow section 6.
Either party may terminate for an important reason without notice, in particular for serious or repeated breaches of these Terms, fraud, or if continuing is unreasonable. Before terminating for cause we usually issue a warning, unless that is pointless or the breach is serious. If we terminate a paid service for cause, you are not entitled to a refund of fees for the remaining period, unless the law provides otherwise; if we terminate without such a reason, we refund prepaid fees proportionately.
You can download your content before your account is deleted. Sections that by nature should survive termination continue to apply.
We may change these Terms for valid reasons, for example new legal requirements, court decisions, new features or security needs. We will notify you of changes by email or in your account at least 30 days before they take effect, and tell you what changes. If you do not agree, you may terminate the affected contract free of charge before the changes take effect.
Changes to the main obligations (such as the price or the core scope of a paid service) require your explicit consent, except for price changes under section 6. Changes that are purely to your advantage or only editorial may take effect immediately.
These Terms are governed by the law of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). If you are a consumer, this choice of law does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory provisions of the law of the country where you have your habitual residence.
If you are a merchant, a legal entity under public law or have no general place of jurisdiction in Germany, the exclusive place of jurisdiction is Potsdam, Germany. Consumers may bring proceedings in the courts of their place of residence and can only be sued there.
The contract language is English. A German translation may be provided for convenience; in case of doubt, the English version applies unless mandatory law requires otherwise.
We are neither willing nor obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board (§ 36 German Consumer Dispute Resolution Act). The EU online dispute resolution (ODR) platform was discontinued on 20 July 2025. Please contact us directly so we can find a solution.
Consumers have rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, including the 14-day cancellation right described in section 8, and from the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 for subscriptions as they take effect. Nothing in these Terms limits those rights.
Swiss consumers may rely on the mandatory provisions of Swiss law. We grant the 14-day withdrawal right in section 8 voluntarily where Swiss law does not provide one.
Subscriptions renew automatically at the price and interval shown at checkout until you cancel. You can cancel online at any time in your account under "Manage billing", and cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. The renewal terms are shown at checkout and included in your purchase confirmation email.
California residents: under California Civil Code § 1789.3, you may contact the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs in writing at 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112, Sacramento, CA 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210.
To the extent permitted by the law of your state, the limitations in section 12 apply. Some states do not allow certain limitations of liability or implied warranties, so some of these limitations may not apply to you.
Where the law of your country gives you mandatory rights that go beyond these Terms, those rights apply.
If any provision of these Terms is invalid, the remaining provisions stay effective and the statutory provisions apply in place of the invalid one. Our failure to enforce a right is not a waiver of it. You may transfer rights under these Terms to third parties only with our consent; consumers' statutory rights (§ 354a German Commercial Code) remain unaffected.
We store the contract text for paid orders. You receive order details and these Terms by email and can view the current Terms on this page at any time.
