2. General information on offers and orders
- The presentation of the products in the shop, on websites, and in digitally printed brochures, or catalogs or comparable product presentations of the seller does not constitute a legally binding offer, but rather an invitation to submit an order and thus the customer's offer.
- Customers are responsible for ensuring that the information they provide is accurate and that any changes are communicated to the seller if they are necessary for the seller's performance of the contract. In particular, customers must ensure that the provided email and delivery addresses are correct and that any delivery obstacles for which customers are responsible are taken into account (e.g., by checking the spam folder of the email software used).
3. Order process and conclusion of contract
- The customer can choose from the products offered by the seller in the assortment 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.
- By clicking on the button that completes the ordering process, the customer makes a binding offer to purchase the products in the shopping cart from the seller.
4. Contract text and contract language
- The seller stores the contract text and makes it available to the customers in text form (e.g., via email 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 their browser or the save function for web pages in the last step of the order.
- The contract language is German; contracts can be concluded in this language.
5. Customer account
- The seller provides the customer with a customer account. Within the customer account, customers are provided with information about their orders and the customer data stored with the seller. The information stored in the customer account is not public.
- Customers can also place an order as a guest without having to create a customer account.
- Customers are required to provide truthful information in their customer account and to adjust the information to changes in the actual circumstances as necessary (e.g., the changed email address in the event of a change or the changed mailing address before placing an order). Customers are responsible for any disadvantages that arise from incorrect information.
- Customers are responsible for their customer accounts within their area of influence and to the extent that the responsibility is reasonable for them. It is the customers' responsibility to exercise the utmost care when using access data for the customer account and to take any measures necessary to ensure the confidential and secure handling of the data and to prevent its disclosure to third parties. Customers are required to inform the seller immediately if there is reason to suspect that a third party has knowledge of access data and/or is misusing the customer account.
- The customer account may only be used in accordance with the applicable legal provisions, in particular the regulations for the protection of third-party rights, and in accordance with the seller's terms and conditions, using the access interfaces and other technical access options provided by the seller.
