Conditions

Part 1: General provisions


1. Scope, definitions

  1. The following General Terms and Conditions (GTC) apply to all business relationships that are initiated (delivery to branch) and/or processed (delivery to customer) via the online shop. The version of our General Terms and Conditions that is valid at the time of the order is decisive.
  2. For the delivery of goods to the stores, the provider of the goods and user of these General Terms and Conditions is the company to which the collection store selected by the customer during the ordering process belongs. The exact identity, including contact information, is displayed to the customer after selecting the collection store during the ordering process.
  3. The products we offer in the online shop are aimed exclusively at consumers with full legal capacity as end users. For the purposes of these General Terms and Conditions, a "consumer" is any natural person who concludes the contract for a purpose that cannot be attributed to their commercial or independent professional activity (Section 13 of the German Civil Code). Any person who has reached the age of 18 has full legal capacity. These offers are available to customers residing in the EEA in the same way and under the same conditions due to the so-called Geoblocking Regulation (EU) 2018/302.
  4. Mix orders are orders that include both the delivery of goods to a branch and the delivery to the customer. Parts 1 and 2 of these Terms and Conditions apply to the part of the mix order that includes the delivery to the branch, and Parts 1 and 3 of these Terms and Conditions apply to the part that includes the delivery to the customer.


2. Registration

  1. If you would like to order from our online shop as a registered customer, you must register before or during the ordering process.
  2. To register, you must provide personal information that we need to process your order. Mandatory information required to process contracts is marked separately; other information is voluntary.
  3. Before registering, you must agree to these Terms and Conditions and our Privacy Policy.


3. Partial deliveries, delivery times, delivery restrictions

  1. The provider is entitled to make partial deliveries as long as this is reasonable for the customer. A partial delivery is particularly reasonable if the partial delivery can be used as intended by the customer, the delivery of the remaining ordered goods is ensured and the customer does not incur any significant additional effort or costs as a result of the partial delivery.
  2. We are entitled to withdraw from the contract if, despite a corresponding hedging transaction having been concluded, the ordered goods are not available for reasons beyond our control and we will inform the customer immediately of the unavailability and immediately reimburse the customer for any consideration.
  3. In the event of force majeure, the deadline for performance will be extended appropriately, taking into account the duration of the obstacle and a reasonable start-up time. Excluded from this are those cases in which the existence of a case of force majeure and its duration have no influence on the period for performance. Events that were unforeseeable at the time the contract was concluded are also considered cases of force majeure, in particular shortages of energy and raw materials, strikes, lockouts, official measures, pandemics, epidemics, terrorist attacks and war. For force majeure to exist, it is necessary that the unforeseeable event or its effects do not only last for a short time. If the effects extend over a period of more than five working days, it cannot be assumed that they will last for a short time. We will inform the customer immediately about the existence of force majeure and the expected end of this circumstance. If the state of force majeure lasts for more than three months without interruption or if the deadline for the provision of services is extended by more than four months due to several circumstances of force majeure, both the customer and we are entitled to withdraw from the contract. In the event of force majeure, the assertion of claims for damages and other claims is excluded. The obligation to provide consideration is waived and any advance payments already made will be refunded. The provisions of this section apply accordingly if the circumstances occur with a subcontractor and affect the delivery to us.
  4. Our offers are aimed at customers with a delivery address in Germany (with the exception of Helgoland, Büsingen, Free Port of Bremerhaven and Free Port of Cuxhaven).


4. Prices

  1. All prices stated in the online shop include the applicable statutory sales tax and, if applicable, plus shipping costs.
  2. The provider is entitled to contest the purchase contract in accordance with the statutory provisions if an incorrect price indication is based on an error on the part of the provider.


5. Copyright

The provider has the exclusive rights of use to images and texts published in the online shop. The use of images and texts is not permitted without the express consent of the provider.


6. Retention of title

The goods remain our property until full payment has been made (reserved goods). The customer is not entitled to dispose of the goods in a legal transaction until ownership has been acquired. He undertakes to inform the seller immediately if third parties assert rights to the goods.


7. Support in product liability cases

  1. The customer will not modify products with regard to safety-related aspects. In particular, he will not change or remove existing warnings about dangers of improper use.
  2. If we are obliged to initiate measures, in particular to issue a product warning or recall a product, the customer will support us to the best of its ability.


8. Warranty

The statutory liability for defects provisions apply.


9. Liability

Statutory liability applies.


10. Data protection

  1. We will collect, process and store all personal data provided by you exclusively in accordance with the provisions of European and German data protection law.
  2. In order to process the contract concluded with you, it is necessary to use your personal data. Any further use requires your express consent. Details about the data collected and its respective use can be found in our Data protection .


11. Information on online dispute resolution according to the ODR Regulation and Section 36 VSBG

Since February 15, 2016, the EU Commission has offered a platform for online dispute resolution. Consumers now have the opportunity to resolve disputes relating to their online orders without initially involving the courts. The consumer's option to take legal action remains unaffected.

The platform for online dispute resolution (OS) is available on the Internet at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr .

The provider is not obliged to participate in a dispute settlement procedure before a consumer arbitration board.

The provider is not willing to participate in a dispute settlement procedure before a consumer arbitration board.

12. Written form

All changes and additions to these Terms and Conditions as well as the waiver of their validity must be made in writing. This also applies to a possible waiver of the written form requirement.

13. Choice of law

All contracts concluded between you and us are subject exclusively to the law of the Federal Republic of Germany, expressly excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.


14. Severability clause

  1. Should one or more provisions or parts of a provision of these General Terms and Conditions be or become invalid, this shall not affect the validity of the remainder of the contract. In view of the case law of the Federal Court of Justice, according to which a severability clause merely leads to a reversal of the burden of proof, it is, however, the express intention of the parties to maintain the validity of the remaining provisions of these General Terms and Conditions under all circumstances.
  2. In place of the invalid or unenforceable provision, the parties shall agree on a valid and effective provision that is as close as possible in legal and economic terms to the provision in question and which they would reasonably have agreed upon if they had considered the invalidity or unenforceability of the respective provision when concluding this contract.
  3. 15 Paragraph 1 and Paragraph 2 shall apply accordingly in the event of a regulatory gap.
