Conclusion of Contract
It is noted that an order constitutes an offer from the customer, whereas the advertising of goods on our website or via email does not yet constitute a binding offer.
Acceptance of the contract occurs through an explicit declaration of acceptance or by shipping the goods, in each case within a reasonable period not exceeding seven days. During this period, the customer is bound by their offer. If no acceptance occurs, it is assumed that the Seller rejects the offer.
If we are unable to fulfill a customer’s offer, we will endeavor to inform the customer as soon as possible. This may occur, in particular, if ordered goods become unavailable in the meantime or cannot be delivered for other reasons.
Offers sent by the Seller to the Buyer are non-binding and in no way oblige the Seller, unless the content of the offer explicitly and unequivocally states otherwise.
Offers from the Seller are valid with a binding period of three working days from the date of the offer (inclusive).
All rights and ownership of all data, information, and items provided to the Buyer as part of the offer remain with the Seller. The Buyer is not permitted to use any part of this data or items in any way other than that allowed under the offer or agreement.
All sizes, weights, colors, technical details, texts, and photos referenced by the Seller in an offer, agreement, website, or similar information are purely descriptive. The Buyer cannot derive any rights from these. Deliveries or services deviating from this data are permissible and do not imply that the Seller fails to meet its obligations under the agreement, provided the deviations are reasonable in nature and scope and do not fundamentally alter the Seller’s core obligations under the agreement. The Buyer has no right to compensation claims or additional services based on deviations from this data.

Storage of Contract
The contract is stored electronically by the Seller. At the latest, upon delivery of the ordered goods, the customer receives a contract confirmation on a durable medium (email or paper).
Contractual Agreements and Formation
Agreements between the parties are only formed once the Buyer has accepted or otherwise confirmed a written offer or bid from the Seller.
Notwithstanding Section 4.1 of these GTC, an agreement may also be formed if the Seller unequivocally learns from the Buyer that the Buyer accepts the Seller’s offer or bid.
The content of the agreement is determined solely by the terms under which the agreement is concluded and explicitly agreed in writing or via email, including these General Terms and Conditions.
Additions, corrections, obligations, requests, or other conditions that the Buyer considers part of the agreement are not included unless explicitly stated in the agreement’s content as per Section 4.3 of these GTC.
The customer may not derive any rights regarding the execution of the agreement from statements by the Seller’s employees or third parties unless those employees are legally authorized to act on behalf of the Seller.
The Seller reserves the right to have one or more parts of its obligations under the agreement performed by third parties. In such cases, the Seller remains the Buyer’s contractual partner and responsible for fulfilling the contractual obligations toward the Buyer.
If the Seller modifies its product for improvement or due to legal or other requirements, it reserves the right to do so at any time. The Buyer may not assert any rights against the Seller based on such changes.
The Seller reserves the right to make partial deliveries if reasonably feasible. This does not result in any liability or breach of performance by the Seller.

Prices, Payment & Payment Default
Prices listed in the webshop are, unless otherwise specified, exclusive of all taxes, including VAT. Shipping costs and additional fees payable by the Seller may be added to the stated prices.
For deliveries, the consumer bears all import and export fees, as well as any customs duties, charges, and levies associated with the delivery.
Payment of the purchase price is due immediately upon conclusion of the contract.
Any increase in costs affecting the price (e.g., taxes/fees, freight costs, equipment costs, etc.) entitles the Seller to pass these on to the customer. The Buyer may terminate the agreement only if this occurs within two months of the agreement’s conclusion and the cost increase exceeds 5% of the price.
If the customer defaults on a payment, we are entitled to charge default interest at a rate of 2.5% per month for the default period.
In addition to Section 5.5, the Buyer is liable for all judicial and extrajudicial costs incurred by the Seller, which the Seller may reasonably charge in connection with collecting the outstanding amount. If a court does not award the Seller full legal costs (including attorney fees) in a judicial proceeding, this does not affect the Seller’s right to recover these costs in full under a separate prior agreement with the Buyer as per this section.
The Buyer must compensate the Seller for all damages suffered due to incorrect or missing billing data provided by the Buyer or failure to comply with governmental or other obligations.
In case of default, we will also charge the customer for costs necessary for appropriate legal action (e.g., collection or attorney fees). In any case, we will charge a flat processing fee of at least €40 per default incident.

Delivery Terms & Deadlines, Retention of Title
Shipping costs are borne by the customer and are determined by the Seller’s actual costs. The customer is informed of the shipping costs during the ordering process.
Delivery of goods occurs only after full payment is received. Bank transactions may take several days (typically 1–3 days), depending on the payment method.
After receipt of payment, the Seller must deliver the goods to the consumer within 90 days.
If goods are delivered without prior full payment, they remain under retention of title until the purchase price is fully paid. It is agreed that exercising retention of title does not constitute withdrawal from the contract unless the Seller explicitly declares such withdrawal.

Agreed delivery deadlines begin only once the Buyer has provided all necessary data for fulfilling the agreement or the Seller has met all conditions required for execution (e.g., permits, materials, data, payment).

Defects and Claims
The Buyer must inspect all aspects of the delivered item for defects or issues within 24 hours of receipt that might suggest the Seller has not met its obligations. Failure to do so forfeits any rights against the Seller related to such issues.
The Seller is not liable for damage to delivered items it was unaware of or could not have known about.
Claims related to identified defects expire within seven days of the issue becoming apparent unless the Buyer notifies the Seller in writing with a clear description within this period.
Minor or unavoidable deviations in delivered items do not entitle the Buyer to claims.
If the Buyer submits a claim and complies with Sections 6.1, 6.3, or 6.4, the Seller may, at its discretion, either fulfill its obligations or issue a credit for a reasonable portion of the price related to the complaint, without prejudice to other rights of the Seller.
