Herewith, the inclusion of the customer’s own terms and conditions is excluded, unless otherwise agreed.

    1.2 Concerning agreements concerning the supply of vouchers, these general terms and conditions shall apply mutatis mutandis, unless and to the extent not otherwise agreed.

    1.3 Within the meaning of these general terms and conditions, a consumer shall be understood to be any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes which for the most part have nothing to do with either a commercial or independent professional activity of theirs. Within the meaning of these general terms and conditions, an entrepreneur shall be understood to be a natural or legal person or a private company with legal capacity which, in the event of the conclusion of a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of its commercial or independent professional activities.

    2. Conclusion of an agreement

    2.1 The product descriptions contained in the online shop of the seller do not constitute binding offers on the part of the seller, but rather, are for the purpose of the submission of a firm offer by the customer.

    2.2 The customer may submit their offer by means of the online order form integrated into the online shop of the seller. Once they have placed the goods selected in the virtual basket and have gone through the various steps of the ordering process, the customer, by clicking on the button for concluding the ordering process, submits a legally binding contractual offer in respect of the goods contained in the basket. Alternatively, the customer may submit their offer to the seller by telephone, via email, by post or by means of the online contact form.

    2.3 The seller may accept the customer’s offer within five days,
    - by transferring to the customer a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or email), to the extent that the customer’s receipt of order confirmation is crucial, or

    - by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, to the extent that the customer’s receipt of the goods is crucial, or

    - by requesting payment from the customer following their submission of their order.

    In the event that more than one of the aforementioned alternatives are available, the agreement shall come into effect at the moment that one of the aforementioned alternatives is fulfilled. The term for acceptance of an offer shall commence on the date following the sending of the offer by the customer and shall end with the elapsing of the fifth day following the sending of the offer. In the event that the seller fails to accept the customer’s offer within the aforementioned term, this shall constitute a rejection of the offer, such that the customer no longer shall be bound to their declaration of intent.

    2.4 When an offer is submitted by means of the seller’s online order form, the text of the agreement shall, following conclusion of an agreement, be stored by the seller and transferred in text form (e.g., via email or fax or by post) to the customer following their sending of their form. Beyond this, the seller shall make no other effort to make of the agreement text accessible. To the extent that, prior to sending their order, the customer has created a user’s account in the seller’s online shop, the relevant order dates shall be archived on the seller’s website and can be retrieved by the customer free of charge via their password-protected user’s account upon supply of the corresponding login data.

    2.5 Prior to binding submission of an order by means of the seller’s online order form, the customer may, through careful reading of the information displayed on their screen, detect possible input errors. The magnifying functionality of one’s browser, with whose help the display of images can be enlarged, can be an effective technical tool for easier detection of such errors. In the context of the electronic ordering process, the customer can, by means of the customary keyboard and mouse functionalities, correct their entries as much as required, prior to clicking on the button for concluding the ordering process.

    2.6 The German and English languages are available for concluding the contract. 

    2.7 Order processing and contact initiation normally take place via email and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the email address they have supplied for the purpose of order processing is the correct one, so that the emails sent by the seller can be received at that address.
