  2. Deviating terms and conditions of the Customer shall not be recognized, even if the Seller provides its services without objection, unless the Seller expressly agrees to the validity of the deviating terms and conditions of the Customer.

  3. "Consumer" in the sense of these GTC is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that can predominantly be attributed neither to his commercial nor to his independent professional activity.

  4. "Entrepreneur" within the meaning of the GTC is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of his commercial or independent professional activity.

2. Ordering process and conclusion of contract

  1. The presentation of the products in the store, on websites and in digital printed brochures, or catalogs or comparable product presentations of the seller does not constitute a legally binding offer, but an invitation to place an order and thus the offer of the customer.
  2. The customer can select from the products offered in the assortment of the seller to the customer and collect them in a so-called shopping cart. In the selection within the shopping cart, the product selection can be changed, e.g. deleted. Otherwise, the customer can initiate the completion of the ordering process.
  3. The seller can accept the customer's offer within the acceptance period. The acceptance period is five days. The acceptance period begins with the completion of the order process by the customer in the store (or, if designated, by means of other communication channels) and ends with the expiration of its last day. The Seller may accept the Customer's offer by explicitly accepting the contract, including by e-mail. The acceptance can also be made by the shipment of the goods and their receipt by the Customer within the acceptance period, as well as by a request for payment sent by the Seller to the Customer. In the event of several acceptance procedures, the earliest acceptance date shall be decisive. If the Seller does not accept the Customer's offer within the acceptance period, no contract shall be concluded and the Customer shall no longer be bound by its offer.
  4. By clicking on the button that concludes the ordering process, the customer makes a binding offer to purchase the products in the shopping cart from the seller.
  5. Customers are requested to carefully read and observe the instructions in the ordering process and, if necessary, to use the available support functions of their software and hardware (e.g. magnification or read-aloud functions). Required information shall be marked by the Seller as such in a manner reasonably recognizable to the Customer (e.g. by optical highlighting and/or asterisk signs). Until the order is submitted, customers can change and view the product selection and their entries at any time, as well as return to the shopping cart or cancel the ordering process altogether. For this purpose, the customers can use the available and usual functions of their software and/or the end device (e.g. the forward and back buttons of the browser or keyboard, mouse and gesture functions on mobile devices).
  6. Customers are responsible for ensuring that the information they provide is accurate and that any changes are communicated to Seller if they are necessary for Seller's performance of the contract. In particular, customers are responsible for ensuring that the e-mail and delivery addresses provided are accurate and that any obstacles to receipt for which customers are responsible are taken into account accordingly (e.g. by checking the spam folder of the e-mail software used).

3. Contract Text and Contract Language

  1. The seller saves the contract text and provides it to the customer in text form (e.g. by e-mail or printed with the delivery of the order). The customer can print the contract text before submitting the order to the seller by using the print function of his browser or the save function for websites in the last step of the order process.

These expenses will not be paid through the Seller, but are to be paid by the Customer to the relevant tax or customs authorities. The seller recommends the customer to inform himself about the possible further costs at the responsible authorities and on the basis of the country regulations applicable to the customer in each case.
