If it can be proven that we have incurred higher damages due to the delay, we are entitled to claim this.

6. Retention of title

The product remains our property until the purchase price has been paid in full.

7. Transport damage; Investigation obligations

If you are a consumer (see section 1.3) and products are delivered to you with obvious transport damage, you must immediately complain about such errors to the supplier and contact us immediately. If you are considered a consumer (see Section 1.3), failure to make a complaint or contact us will have no consequences for your legal claims and their enforcement, in particular for your warranty rights.

8. Warranty

8.1 Unless expressly agreed otherwise, your warranty claims are based on the statutory provisions of the purchase law (§§ 433 ff. BGB).

8.2 If you are a consumer (see section 1.3), the limitation period for warranty claims for used items is - contrary to the statutory provisions - one year. This limitation does not apply to claims due to damages resulting from injury to life, body or health or from the violation of an essential contractual obligation, the fulfillment of which enables the proper execution of the contract in the first place and on whose compliance the contractual partner can regularly rely (cardinal obligation). as well as for claims based on other damages that are based on an intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty by the user or his vicarious agents. In addition, the statutory provisions apply to the warranty.

8.3. For entrepreneurs (see section 1.4) the legal provisions apply with the following modifications:

You are obliged to inspect the product immediately and with due care for deviations in quality and quantity and to report any obvious defects to us within 7 days of receipt of the product. Deadline is sufficient for the timely dispatch. This also applies to hidden defects discovered later upon discovery. If the obligation to inspect and give notice of defects is violated, the assertion of warranty claims is excluded.



In the event of defects, we will, at our own discretion, provide a guarantee through repair or replacement delivery (subsequent performance). In the event of repair, we do not have to bear the increased costs that arise from moving the product to a location other than the place of performance if the delivery does not correspond to the intended use of the product.



If supplementary performance fails twice, you can choose to demand a reduction or withdraw from the contract.



The warranty period is one year from delivery of the product.

9. Liability

9.1 We are not liable for your damages in accordance with the statutory provisions if the damages were caused intentionally or through gross negligence, they are the result of the non-existence of a guaranteed quality of the service, they are based on a culpable violation of essential contractual obligations (see Section 9.2), they the are the result of a culpable injury to health, body or life, or for which liability is provided for under the Product Liability Act. However, in the event of a merely negligent breach of an essential contractual obligation (see Section 9.2), our liability is limited to damages that are typically and foreseeably expected to arise in the context of providing the agreed services. This limitation does not apply if damage is the result of injury to health, body or life.

9.2 Essential contractual obligations are those contractual obligations whose fulfillment enables the proper execution of the contract in the first place and on whose compliance the contractual partner can regularly rely, and whose violation, on the other hand, endangers the achievement of the purpose of the contract.

9.3 Otherwise, our liability is excluded regardless of the legal basis.

10. No granting of rights of use

By purchasing the product, you only acquire physical ownership of the product. No other usage rights to the product are granted. Any reproduction (duplication), distribution, rental, making publicly available or other analog or digital use of the purchased product is not permitted unless this is permitted by law. However, you are permitted to resell the purchased product.



11. Right of withdrawal

If you conclude the purchase contract as a consumer (see section 1.3), you have a statutory right of cancellation, for which the “cancellation instructions” set out in the appendix “cancellation instructions and sample cancellation form” apply.

Robert Nippoldt points out that there is no right of withdrawal for works with a presentation freely chosen by the customer, as the works created are made individually according to your specifications. For individual products, a right of withdrawal according to Section 312 g Paragraph 2 No. 1 BGB is excluded.

12. Data Protection

For the purpose of fulfilling and processing the purchase contract with you, we collect, process and use your personal data. This data will be treated confidentially and will not be passed on to third parties who are not involved in the ordering, delivery and payment processes. Further information on data processing and data protection can be found in our data protection declaration.

13. Final provisions

13.1 Should one or more provisions of these General Terms and Conditions be or become ineffective, this will not affect the effectiveness of the remaining provisions.

13.2 The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies exclusively to the contractual relationship with you. The application of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) is excluded. If you have concluded the contract as a consumer (see section 1.3), the mandatory consumer protection regulations that apply in the country in which you have your habitual residence also apply, provided that these provide you with further protection.

13.3 If you are a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all claims arising from the contractual relationship is Berlin.

14. Information on online dispute resolution



The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution (OS), which the customer can access at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/main/index.cfm?event=main.home.show&lng=DE . We are neither obliged nor willing to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.
