  • Customers are responsible for ensuring that the details they provide are accurate and for notifying any changes to the Vendor if they are necessary for the Vendor's fulfilment of the contract. In particular, Customers are responsible for ensuring that the e-mail and delivery addresses they provide are accurate and that any obstructions to receipt for which Customers are responsible are taken into account accordingly (e.g. by checking the spam folder of the email software used).

    • 3. Ordering Process and Conclusion of Contract

  • By clicking on the button that concludes the ordering process, the Customer makes a binding offer to the Vendor to purchase the products in the shopping basket.

    • 4. Contract Text and Contract Language

  • The Vendor saves the text of the contract and makes it available to the Customers in text form (e.g. by e-mail or printed with the delivery of the order). The Customer can print the text of the contract before submitting the order to the Vendor by using the print function of his browser or the save function for web pages in the last step of the ordering process.
  • The contractual language is English, contracts can be concluded in this language.

    • 5. Prices and Shipping Costs

  • Unless otherwise stated, all prices are net, plus the applicable statutory value added tax (VAT).

    • 6. Payment Methods and Terms

  • When using financial institutions and other payment service providers, the terms and conditions and data protection information of the payment service providers also apply with regard to payment. Customers are requested to observe these regulations and notes as well as information within the framework of the payment process. This is particularly because the provision of payment methods or the course of the payment procedure may also depend on the agreements between the Customer and financial institutions and payment service providers (e.g. agreed spending limits, location-restricted payment options, verification procedures, etc.).
  • The Customer shall ensure that the Customer fulfills the conditions incumbent upon the Customer, which are necessary for successful payment by means of the selected payment method. This includes, in particular, sufficient coverage of bank and other payment accounts, registration, legitimation and authorization with payment services and confirmation of transactions.
  • If a payment is not made or reversed due to insufficient funds in the Customer's account, the provision of incorrect bank details or an unjustified objection by the Customer, then the Customer shall bear the fees incurred as a result, provided that the Customer is responsible for the failed or reversed booking and, in the case of a SEPA credit transfer, was informed of the transfer in good time (so-called "pre-notification").
  • Prepayment - If payment in advance by means of a bank transfer has been agreed, the payment amount shall already be due upon conclusion of the contract, subject to any express agreement to the contrary. The Vendor shall inform the Customer of his bank details. Delivery shall be made after receipt of payment. If the advance payment has not been received by the Vendor within 10 calendar days of sending the order confirmation, despite the due date, even after a renewed request, the Vendor shall withdraw from the contract with the consequence that the order shall lapse and the Vendor shall have no obligation to deliver. The order is then settled for the buyer and seller without further consequences..
  • Credit card payment - When placing an order, Customers provide their credit card details. The Customer's credit card will be charged immediately after completion of the order and after the Customer's authorisation as the legitimate cardholder.
  • PayPal - The payment is made through the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter: "PayPal") by means of the type of PayPal payment provided by the seller or selected by Customers. Customers are redirected directly to PayPal at the end of the order process. The terms of use of PayPal apply, which can be viewed at https://www.paypal.com/uk/webapps/mpp/ua/legalhub-full and will be communicated to the Customer during the payment process.
  • In the context of the "PayPal Checkout payment method, the Vendor may use third party payment service providers for the purpose of payment processing. The following information applies to PayPal or the respective named third party payment service providers (collectively referred to as "Checkout payment service providers"). The terms and conditions of the Checkout Payment Service Provider communicated to the Customer shall apply. If the Vendor offers a purchase on account or payment by installments via the Checkout payment service provider, the Vendor reserves the right that a prerequisite of the payment method is a successful check of the address and creditworthiness of the customer by the Checkout payment service provider. The Vendor assigns the payment to the Checkout payment service provider. A debt-discharging payment can only be made to the Checkout payment service provider in accordance with the conditions and the selected, or stated, payment term of the Checkout payment service provider. In the event of payment by means of a SEPA direct debit mandate, the Customer shall issue a SEPA direct debit mandate to the Checkout payment service provider. By issuing the SEPA direct debit mandate, the Checkout payment service provider is authorized to initiate the payment transaction, which automatically debits the Customer's bank account. The Customer will be informed about the date of debiting the bank account (referred to as "Pre-Notification").

The payment transaction is carried out based on the conditions of Apple Pay, which are also communicated to the Customer during the ordering process.

If maintenance and inspection work has to be carried out, the Customer shall carry this out in good time at its own expense. The processing or transformation of the Retained Goods by the Customer shall always be carried out for the Vendor. If the Retained Goods are processed with other items not belonging to the Vendor, the Vendor shall acquire co-ownership of the new item in the ratio of the value of the Retained Goods to the other processed goods at the time of processing.

The Customer hereby assigns to the Vendor by way of security all claims arising from the resale or other legal grounds in respect of the Retained Goods of title (including all current account balance claims). The Vendor revocable authorises the Customer to collect the claims assigned to the Vendor for its account and in its own name. This direct debit authorisation may be revoked if the Customer does not duly meet its payment obligations. The Vendor undertakes to release the securities to which the Vendor is entitled at the Customer's request if their total sales value exceeds the sum of all outstanding claims of the Vendor arising from the business relationship by more than 10% (or by more than 50% if there is a risk of liquidation). The choice of the securities to be released is incumbent on the Vendor.
