(2) The product offerings in the Online Shop are directed to both Consumers and Business Customers (as defined below), but in each case only to end users. For the purpose of these General Terms and Conditions, (i) a „Consumer“ is any individual entering into the contract for a purpose not related to his or her business, trade or self-employed professional activity (Sec. 13 of the German Civil Code), and (ii) a „Business Customer“ is an individual, company or partnership vested with legal capacity who enters into the relevant contract in the conduct of its business or its self-employed professional activity (Sec. 14 (1) of the German Civil Code).


(3) Standard business conditions of the Customer do not apply, regardless of whether or not we expressly object to them in a particular case.

(4) Our contracts with the Customer shall be made exclusively in the German or English language, in each case depending on whether the Customer makes the relevant purchase on our English language or on our German language website. Therefore, if the order is made on our German website, exclusively the German version of these General Terms and Conditions shall be relevant.

2. Conclusion of Contract

 

(1) Our offerings in the Online Shop are non-binding.

(2) The customer can choose from our product range and collect them via the button "add to cart" in a so-called shopping cart. With the button "Place order" he makes a binding request to buy the goods in the shopping cart. Before sending the order, the customer can change and view the data at any time time (for this, the zoom function of the internet browser may be helpful). However, the application can only be submitted and transmitted if the customer has accepted these terms and conditions and privacy notices by placing an appropriate tick and thereby included in his application.

 

(3) After the order is placed we send the Customer an automatic confirmation of receipt by e-mail in which the Customer's order is listed again and which the customer can print out via the "Print" function. The automatic acknowledgment of receipt only documents that the customer's order has been received by us and does not constitute acceptance of the request. The contract is only concluded upon submission of the declaration of acceptance by us. A declaration of acceptance will be made within 5 days, either:

a) with a separate e-mail (order confirmation) received by the customer, or

b) by delivery of the goods to the customer, or

c) by request for payment;

should several of the options be met, the option with the earliest conclusion point will be the deciding factor.

The text of the contract is saved while maintaining all data protection contingencies.
