1) Scope of application

1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "GTC") of the company Manuel Frey (hereinafter referred to as "Seller") shall apply to all contracts concluded between a consumer or a trader (hereinafter referred to as "Client") and the Seller relating to all goods and/or services presented in the Seller's online store. The inclusion of the Customer's own terms and conditions is hereby rejected, unless otherwise agreed.

1.2 These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the delivery of physical data carriers that serve exclusively as carriers of digital content, unless otherwise agreed. Digital content within the meaning of these GTC is data that is created and provided in digital form.

1.3 These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the provision of digital content, unless otherwise agreed. Digital content within the meaning of these GTC is data that is created and provided in digital form.

1.4 These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the provision of license keys, unless otherwise agreed. In this case, the seller owes the provision of a license key for the use of the digital content or digital services described by it (hereinafter "digital products") as well as the granting of the contractually agreed rights to use the respective digital products. The customer does not acquire any intellectual property rights to the digital product. The respective product description of the seller is decisive for the quality of the digital product.

1.5 A consumer within the meaning of these GTC is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that cannot be attributed primarily to their commercial or independent professional activity.

1.6 An entrepreneur within the meaning of these GTC is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.

2) Conclusion of contract

2.1 The product descriptions contained in the seller's online store do not constitute binding offers on the part of the seller, but serve to submit a binding offer by the customer.

2.2 The customer can submit the offer via the online order form integrated into the seller's online store. After placing the selected goods in the virtual shopping cart and going through the electronic ordering process, the customer submits a legally binding contractual offer with regard to the goods contained in the shopping cart by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process. Furthermore, the customer can also submit the offer to the seller by e-mail, fax, online contact form, post or telephone.

2.3 The seller can accept the customer's offer within five days,

  • by sending the customer a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or e-mail), whereby the receipt of the order confirmation by the customer is decisive in this respect, or
  • by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, whereby the receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive, or
  • by requesting payment from the customer after the customer has placed the order.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract is concluded at the point in time at which one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. The period for accepting the offer begins on the day after the offer is sent by the customer and ends at the end of the fifth day following the sending of the offer. If the seller does not accept the customer's offer within the aforementioned period, this shall be deemed a rejection of the offer with the consequence that the customer is no longer bound by his declaration of intent.

2.4 If a payment method offered by PayPal is selected, payment shall be processed via the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter: "PayPal"), subject to the PayPal Terms of Use, available at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full or - if the customer does not have a PayPal account - subject to the terms and conditions for payments without a PayPal account, available at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacywax-full. If the customer pays by means of a payment method offered by PayPal that can be selected in the online ordering process, the seller already declares acceptance of the customer's offer at the time the customer clicks on the button that completes the ordering process.

2.5 When an offer is submitted via the seller's online order form, the text of the contract is saved by the seller after the contract is concluded and sent to the customer in text form (e.g. email, fax or letter) after the customer's order has been sent. The seller will not make the text of the contract available beyond this. If the customer has set up a user account in the seller's online store before sending his order, the order data will be archived on the seller's website and can be accessed free of charge by the customer via his password-protected user account by entering the corresponding login data.

2.6 Before submitting a binding order via the seller's online order form, the customer can recognize possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means of better recognizing input errors can be the browser's magnification function, which enlarges the display on the screen. The customer can correct his entries during the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until he clicks on the button that concludes the ordering process.

2.7 The German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.

2.8 Order processing and contact are generally carried out by e-mail and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the e-mail address provided by him for order processing is correct so that the e-mails sent by the seller can be received at this address. In particular, when using SPAM filters, the customer must ensure that all e-mails sent by the seller or by third parties commissioned by the seller to process the order can be delivered.

3) Right of withdrawal

3.1 Consumers are generally entitled to a right of withdrawal.

3.2 Further information on the right of withdrawal can be found in the seller's withdrawal policy.

3.3 The right of withdrawal does not apply to consumers who do not belong to a member state of the European Union at the time the contract is concluded and whose sole place of residence and delivery address are outside the European Union at the time the contract is concluded.

4) Prices and terms of payment

4.1 Unless otherwise stated in the seller's product description, the prices quoted are total prices that include statutory VAT. Any additional delivery and shipping costs will be indicated separately in the respective product description.

4.2 For deliveries to countries outside the European Union, additional costs may be incurred in individual cases for which the seller is not responsible and which are to be borne by the customer. These include, for example, costs for the transfer of money by credit institutions (e.g. transfer fees, exchange rate fees) or import duties or taxes (e.g. customs duties). Such costs may also be incurred in relation to the transfer of funds if the delivery is not made to a country outside the European Union, but the customer makes the payment from a country outside the European Union.

4.3 The payment option(s) will be communicated to the customer in the seller's online store.

4.4 If a payment method offered via the "PayPal" payment service is selected, the payment shall be processed via PayPal, whereby PayPal may also use the services of third party payment service providers for this purpose. If the Seller also offers payment methods via PayPal for which it makes advance payments to the Customer (e.g. purchase on account or payment by installments), it assigns its payment claim in this respect to PayPal or to the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal and specifically named to the Customer. Before accepting the seller's declaration of assignment, PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal shall carry out a credit check using the transmitted customer data. The seller reserves the right to refuse the customer the selected payment method in the event of a negative check result. If the selected payment method is approved, the customer must pay the invoice amount within the agreed payment period or at the agreed payment intervals. In this case, the customer can only pay PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal with debt-discharging effect. However, even in the case of assignment of claims, the seller remains responsible for general customer inquiries, e.g. regarding goods, delivery time, shipment, returns, complaints, revocation declarations and returns or credit notes.

4.5 If the payment method "Sofortüberweisung" is selected, payment is processed by Klarna Bank AB (publ), Sveavägen 46, 11134 Stockholm, Sweden (hereinafter referred to as "Klarna"). In order to be able to pay the invoice amount via "Sofortüberweisung", the customer must have an online banking account activated for participation in "Sofortüberweisung", legitimize himself accordingly during the payment process and confirm the payment instruction. The payment transaction is then carried out immediately by Klarna and the customer's bank account is debited. The customer can find more information on the "Sofortüberweisung" payment method on the Internet at https://www.klarna.com/sofort/.

4.6 If the payment method "PayPal direct debit" is selected, PayPal will collect the invoice amount from the customer's bank account after a SEPA direct debit mandate has been issued, but not before the deadline for the pre-notification on behalf of the seller has expired. Pre-notification is any communication (e.g. invoice, policy, contract) to the customer that announces a debit by SEPA Direct Debit. If the direct debit is not honored due to insufficient funds in the account or due to the provision of incorrect bank details, or if the customer objects to the debit although he is not entitled to do so, the customer shall bear the fees incurred by the respective credit institution as a result of the chargeback if he is responsible for this.

5) Delivery and shipping conditions

5.1 If the seller offers to ship the goods, delivery shall be made within the delivery area specified by the seller to the delivery address specified by the customer, unless otherwise agreed. The delivery address specified in the seller's order processing is decisive for the processing of the transaction.

5.2 If the delivery of the goods fails for reasons for which the customer is responsible, the customer shall bear the reasonable costs incurred by the seller as a result. This does not apply with regard to the costs for the return shipment if the customer effectively exercises his right of withdrawal. If the customer effectively exercises his right of revocation, the provision made in the seller's revocation instructions shall apply to the return costs.

5.3 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, carrier or other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment. If the customer is acting as a consumer, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall not pass until the goods are handed over to the customer or a person authorized to receive them. Notwithstanding the above, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer, even in the case of consumers, as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment, if the customer has commissioned the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment and the seller has not previously named this person or institution to the customer.

5.4 The Seller reserves the right to withdraw from the contract in the event of incorrect or improper self-delivery. This shall only apply in the event that the Seller is not responsible for the non-delivery and the Seller has concluded a specific covering transaction with the supplier with due care. The seller shall make every reasonable effort to procure the goods. In the event of non-availability or only partial availability of the goods, the customer will be informed immediately and the consideration will be refunded without delay.

5.5 Self-collection is not possible for logistical reasons.

5.6 Digital content is provided to the customer as follows

  • by direct access via the entrepreneur's website
  • by download
  • by e-mail

5.7 License keys are provided to the customer as follows

  • by e-mail
  • by post

6) Granting of rights of use for digital content

6.1 Unless otherwise stated in the content description in the seller's online store, the seller grants the customer the non-exclusive right to use the content provided for private and commercial purposes without restriction in terms of location or time.

6.2 The transfer of the content to third parties or the creation of copies for third parties outside the scope of these GTC is not permitted unless the seller has agreed to the transfer of the contractual license to the third party.

6.3 Insofar as the contract relates to the one-off provision of digital content, the granting of rights shall only become effective once the customer has paid the remuneration owed in full. The seller may provisionally permit the use of the contractual content even before this point in time. Such provisional permission does not constitute a transfer of rights.

7) Granting of rights of use for license keys

7.1 The license key provided entitles the customer to use the digital product shown in the respective product description of the seller to the extent described therein.

7.2 Insofar as the license key relates to the one-time provision of digital content, the granting of rights shall only become effective once the customer has paid the remuneration owed in full.

8) Retention of title

8.1 In relation to consumers, the seller retains ownership of the delivered goods until the purchase price owed has been paid in full.

8.2 In the case of entrepreneurs, the seller retains title to the delivered goods until all claims arising from an ongoing business relationship have been settled in full.

8.3 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the following shall also apply:

If the delivered goods are processed, the Seller shall be deemed to be the manufacturer and shall acquire ownership of the newly created goods. If the processing is carried out together with other materials, the seller acquires ownership in the ratio of the invoice value of his goods to that of the other materials. If, in the case of the combination or mixing of the seller's goods with an item belonging to the customer, the latter is to be regarded as the main item, co-ownership of the item shall be transferred to the seller in the ratio of the invoice value of the seller's goods to the invoice value or, in the absence of such, to the market value of the main item. In such cases, the customer shall be deemed to be the custodian.

The customer may neither pledge nor assign by way of security items subject to retention of title or reservation of rights. The customer is only entitled to resell the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business. The customer assigns to the seller in advance all resulting claims against third parties in the amount of the respective invoice value (including VAT). This assignment shall apply irrespective of whether the reserved goods have been resold without or after processing. The customer shall remain authorized to collect the claims even after the assignment. The seller's right to collect the claims himself remains unaffected. However, the seller shall not collect the claims as long as the customer meets his payment obligations to the seller, is not in default of payment and no application for the opening of insolvency proceedings has been filed.

The customer must immediately notify the seller of any access to the goods owned or co-owned by the seller or to the assigned claims. He must immediately transfer to the seller any amounts assigned to the seller and collected by him, insofar as the seller's claim is due.

If the value of the Seller's security interests exceeds the amount of the secured claims by more than 10%, the Seller shall release a corresponding proportion of the security interests at the Customer's request.

9) Liability for defects (warranty)

Unless otherwise stated in the following provisions, the provisions of statutory liability for defects shall apply. In deviation from this, the following applies to contracts for the delivery of goods:

9.1 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur,

  • the seller has the choice of the type of subsequent performance;
  • in the case of new goods, the limitation period for warranty rights is one year from delivery of the goods;
  • in the case of used goods, the warranty rights are excluded;
  • the limitation period shall not recommence if a replacement delivery is made as part of the liability for defects.

9.2 The above limitations of liability and shortening of the limitation period shall not apply

  • to claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses by the customer,
  • in the event that the seller has fraudulently concealed the defect,
  • for goods that have been used for a building in accordance with their normal use and have caused its defectiveness,
  • for any existing obligation of the seller to provide updates for digital products, in the case of contracts for the delivery of goods with digital elements.

9.3 In addition, for entrepreneurs, the statutory limitation periods for any existing statutory right of recourse remain unaffected.

9.4 If the customer acts as a merchant within the meaning of Section 1 of the German Commercial Code (HGB), he shall be subject to the commercial obligation to inspect and give notice of defects in accordance with Section 377 HGB. If the customer fails to comply with the notification obligations regulated therein, the goods shall be deemed approved.

9.5 If the customer acts as a consumer, he is requested to complain to the deliverer about delivered goods with obvious transport damage and to inform the seller of this. If the customer fails to do so, this shall have no effect on his statutory or contractual claims for defects.

10) Liability

The Seller shall be liable to the Customer for all contractual, quasi-contractual and statutory claims, including claims in tort, for damages and reimbursement of expenses as follows:

10.1 The Seller shall be liable without limitation for any legal reason

  • in the event of intent or gross negligence,
  • in the event of intentional or negligent injury to life, limb or health,
  • on the basis of a guarantee promise, unless otherwise regulated in this respect,
  • due to mandatory liability such as under the Product Liability Act.

10.2 If the Seller negligently breaches a material contractual obligation, liability shall be limited to the foreseeable damage typical of the contract, unless unlimited liability applies in accordance with the above clause. Essential contractual obligations are obligations which the contract imposes on the seller according to its content in order to achieve the purpose of the contract, the fulfillment of which makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on the observance of which the customer may regularly rely.

10.3 Any further liability of the seller is excluded.

10.4 The above liability provisions also apply with regard to the liability of the seller for its vicarious agents and legal representatives.

11) Special conditions for the processing of goods according to specific customer specifications

11.1 If, according to the content of the contract, the seller is also responsible for processing the goods in accordance with certain specifications of the customer in addition to the delivery of goods, the customer must provide the seller with all content required for processing, such as texts, images or graphics in the file formats, formatting, image and file sizes specified by the seller and grant the seller the necessary rights of use. The customer is solely responsible for the procurement and acquisition of rights to this content. The customer declares and assumes responsibility that he has the right to use the content provided to the seller. In particular, he shall ensure that no third-party rights are infringed, especially copyrights, trademark rights and personal rights.

11.2 The customer shall indemnify the seller against claims by third parties which they may assert against the seller in connection with an infringement of their rights through the contractual use of the customer's content by the seller. The customer shall also assume the necessary costs of legal defense, including all court and attorney's fees in the statutory amount. This does not apply if the customer is not responsible for the infringement. In the event of a claim by a third party, the customer is obliged to provide the seller immediately, truthfully and completely with all information necessary for the examination of the claims and a defense.

11.3 The seller reserves the right to refuse processing orders if the content provided by the customer for this purpose violates legal or official prohibitions or offends common decency. This applies in particular to the provision of anti-constitutional, racist, xenophobic, discriminatory, offensive, youth-endangering and/or violence-glorifying content.

12) Applicable law

12.1 The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to all legal relationships between the parties to the exclusion of the laws on the international purchase of movable goods. In the case of consumers, this choice of law shall only apply insofar as the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which the consumer has his habitual residence is not withdrawn.

12.2 Furthermore, with regard to the statutory right of withdrawal, this choice of law does not apply to consumers who do not belong to a member state of the European Union at the time the contract is concluded and whose sole place of residence and delivery address are outside the European Union at the time the contract is concluded.

13) Alternative dispute resolution

The seller is neither obliged nor willing to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.

The customer can correct his entries during the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until he clicks on the button that concludes the ordering process.

2.7 The German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.

2.8 Order processing and contact are generally carried out by e-mail and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the e-mail address provided by him for order processing is correct so that the e-mails sent by the seller can be received at this address.

Such costs may also be incurred in relation to the transfer of funds if the delivery is not made to a country outside the European Union, but the customer makes the payment from a country outside the European Union.

4.3 The payment option(s) will be communicated to the customer in the seller's online store.

4.4 If a payment method offered via the "PayPal" payment service is selected, the payment shall be processed via PayPal, whereby PayPal may also use the services of third party payment service providers for this purpose.

If the direct debit is not honored due to insufficient funds in the account or due to the provision of incorrect bank details, or if the customer objects to the debit although he is not entitled to do so, the customer shall bear the fees incurred by the respective credit institution as a result of the chargeback if he is responsible for this.

5) Delivery and shipping conditions

5.1 If the seller offers to ship the goods, delivery shall be made within the delivery area specified by the seller to the delivery address specified by the customer, unless otherwise agreed. The delivery address specified in the seller's order processing is decisive for the processing of the transaction.

This does not apply with regard to the costs for the return shipment if the customer effectively exercises his right of withdrawal. If the customer effectively exercises his right of withdrawal, the provision in the seller's withdrawal policy shall apply to the return costs.

5.3 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, carrier or other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment. If the customer is acting as a consumer, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall not pass until the goods are handed over to the customer or a person authorized to receive them. Notwithstanding this, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer, even in the case of consumers, as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment, if the customer has commissioned the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment and the seller has not previously named this person or institution to the customer.

This shall only apply in the event that the Seller is not responsible for the non-delivery and the Seller has concluded a specific covering transaction with the supplier with due care.

6.3 Insofar as the contract relates to the one-off provision of digital content, the granting of rights shall only become effective once the customer has paid the remuneration owed in full.

7.1 The license key provided entitles the customer to use the digital product shown in the respective product description of the seller to the extent described therein.

7.2 Insofar as the license key relates to the one-time provision of digital content, the granting of rights shall only become effective once the customer has paid the remuneration owed in full.

8) Retention of title

8.1 In relation to consumers, the seller retains ownership of the delivered goods until the purchase price owed has been paid in full.

8.2 In relation to entrepreneurs, the seller retains ownership of the delivered goods until all claims arising from an ongoing business relationship have been settled in full.

8.3 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the following shall also apply:

If the delivered goods are processed, the Seller shall be deemed to be the manufacturer and shall acquire ownership of the newly created goods. If the processing is carried out together with other materials, the seller acquires ownership in the ratio of the invoice value of his goods to that of the other materials. If, in the case of the combination or mixing of the seller's goods with an item belonging to the customer, the latter is to be regarded as the main item, co-ownership of the item shall be transferred to the seller in the ratio of the invoice value of the seller's goods to the invoice value or, in the absence of such, to the market value of the main item. In such cases, the customer shall be deemed to be the custodian.

The customer may neither pledge nor assign by way of security items subject to retention of title or reservation of rights. The customer is only entitled to resell the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business. The customer assigns to the seller in advance all resulting claims against third parties in the amount of the respective invoice value (including VAT). This assignment shall apply irrespective of whether the reserved goods have been resold without or after processing. The customer shall remain authorized to collect the claims even after the assignment. The seller's right to collect the claims himself remains unaffected. However, the seller shall not collect the claims as long as the customer meets his payment obligations to the seller, is not in default of payment and no application for the opening of insolvency proceedings has been filed.

The customer must immediately notify the seller of any access to the goods owned or co-owned by the seller or to the assigned claims. He must immediately transfer to the seller any amounts assigned to the seller and collected by him, insofar as the seller's claim is due.

If the value of the Seller's security interests exceeds the amount of the secured claims by more than 10%, the Seller shall release a corresponding proportion of the security interests at the Customer's request.

9) Liability for defects (warranty)

Unless otherwise stated in the following provisions, the provisions of statutory liability for defects shall apply. In deviation from this, the following applies to contracts for the delivery of goods:

9.1 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur,

  • the seller has the choice of the type of subsequent performance;
  • in the case of new goods, the limitation period for warranty rights is one year from delivery of the goods;
  • in the case of used goods, the warranty rights are excluded;
  • the limitation period shall not recommence if a replacement delivery is made as part of the liability for defects.

9.2 The above limitations of liability and shortening of the limitation period shall not apply

  • to claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses by the customer,
  • in the event that the seller has fraudulently concealed the defect,
  • for goods that have been used for a building in accordance with their normal use and have caused its defectiveness,
  • for any existing obligation of the seller to provide updates for digital products, in the case of contracts for the delivery of goods with digital elements.

9.3 In addition, for entrepreneurs, the statutory limitation periods for any existing statutory right of recourse remain unaffected.

9.4 If the customer acts as a merchant within the meaning of Section 1 of the German Commercial Code (HGB), he shall be subject to the commercial obligation to inspect and give notice of defects in accordance with Section 377 HGB. If the customer fails to comply with the notification obligations regulated therein, the goods shall be deemed approved.

9.5 If the customer acts as a consumer, he is requested to complain to the deliverer about delivered goods with obvious transport damage and to inform the seller of this. If the customer fails to do so, this shall have no effect on his statutory or contractual claims for defects.

10) Liability

The Seller shall be liable to the Customer for all contractual, quasi-contractual and statutory claims, including claims in tort, for damages and reimbursement of expenses as follows:

10.1 The Seller shall be liable without limitation for any legal reason

  • in the event of intent or gross negligence,
  • in the event of intentional or negligent injury to life, limb or health,
  • on the basis of a guarantee promise, unless otherwise regulated in this respect,
  • due to mandatory liability such as under the Product Liability Act.

10.2 If the Seller negligently breaches a material contractual obligation, liability shall be limited to the foreseeable damage typical of the contract, unless unlimited liability applies in accordance with the above clause. Essential contractual obligations are obligations which the contract imposes on the seller according to its content in order to achieve the purpose of the contract, the fulfillment of which makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on the observance of which the customer may regularly rely.

10.3 Any further liability of the seller is excluded.

10.4 The above liability provisions also apply with regard to the liability of the seller for its vicarious agents and legal representatives.

11) Special conditions for the processing of goods according to specific customer specifications

11.1 If, according to the content of the contract, the seller is also responsible for processing the goods in accordance with certain specifications of the customer in addition to the delivery of goods, the customer must provide the seller with all content required for processing, such as texts, images or graphics in the file formats, formatting, image and file sizes specified by the seller and grant the seller the necessary rights of use. The customer is solely responsible for the procurement and acquisition of rights to this content. The customer declares and accepts responsibility for ensuring that he has the right to use the content provided to the seller. In particular, he shall ensure that no third-party rights are infringed, especially copyrights, trademark rights and personal rights.

11.2 The customer shall indemnify the seller against claims by third parties which they may assert against the seller in connection with an infringement of their rights through the contractual use of the customer's content by the seller. The customer shall also assume the necessary costs of legal defense, including all court and attorney's fees in the statutory amount. This does not apply if the customer is not responsible for the infringement. In the event of a claim by a third party, the customer is obliged to provide the seller immediately, truthfully and completely with all information necessary for the examination of the claims and a defense.

11.3 The seller reserves the right to refuse processing orders if the content provided by the customer for this purpose violates legal or official prohibitions or offends common decency. This applies in particular to the provision of anti-constitutional, racist, xenophobic, discriminatory, offensive, youth-endangering and/or violence-glorifying content.

12) Applicable law

12.1 The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to all legal relationships between the parties to the exclusion of the laws on the international purchase of movable goods. In the case of consumers, this choice of law shall only apply insofar as the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which the consumer has his habitual residence is not withdrawn.

12.2 Furthermore, this choice of law with regard to the statutory right of withdrawal does not apply to consumers who do not belong to a member state of the European Union at the time the contract is concluded and whose sole place of residence and delivery address are outside the European Union at the time the contract is concluded.

13) Alternative dispute resolution

The seller is neither obliged nor willing to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.

1) Scope of application

1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "GTC") of the company Manuel Frey (hereinafter referred to as "Seller") shall apply to all contracts concluded between a consumer or a trader (hereinafter referred to as "Client") and the Seller relating to all goods and/or services presented in the Seller's online store. The inclusion of the Customer's own terms and conditions is hereby rejected, unless otherwise agreed.

1.2 These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the delivery of physical data carriers that serve exclusively as carriers of digital content, unless otherwise agreed. Digital content within the meaning of these GTC is data that is created and provided in digital form.

1.3 These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the provision of digital content, unless otherwise agreed. Digital content within the meaning of these GTC is data that is created and provided in digital form.

1.4 These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the provision of license keys, unless otherwise agreed. In this case, the seller owes the provision of a license key for the use of the digital content or digital services described by it (hereinafter "digital products") as well as the granting of the contractually agreed rights to use the respective digital products. The customer does not acquire any intellectual property rights to the digital product. The respective product description of the seller is decisive for the quality of the digital product.

1.5 A consumer within the meaning of these GTC is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly outside their trade, business or profession.

1.6 An entrepreneur within the meaning of these GTC is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.

2) Conclusion of contract

2.1 The product descriptions contained in the seller's online store do not constitute binding offers on the part of the seller, but serve to submit a binding offer by the customer.

2.2 The customer can submit the offer via the online order form integrated into the seller's online store. After placing the selected goods in the virtual shopping cart and going through the electronic ordering process, the customer submits a legally binding contractual offer with regard to the goods contained in the shopping cart by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process. Furthermore, the customer can also submit the offer to the seller by e-mail, fax, online contact form, post or telephone.

2.3 The seller can accept the customer's offer within five days,

  • by sending the customer a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or e-mail), whereby the receipt of the order confirmation by the customer is decisive in this respect, or
  • by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, whereby the receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive, or
  • by requesting payment from the customer after the customer has placed the order.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract is concluded at the point in time at which one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. The period for accepting the offer begins on the day after the offer is sent by the customer and ends at the end of the fifth day following the sending of the offer. If the seller does not accept the customer's offer within the aforementioned period, this shall be deemed a rejection of the offer with the consequence that the customer is no longer bound by his declaration of intent.

2.4 If a payment method offered by PayPal is selected, payment shall be processed via the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter: "PayPal"), subject to the PayPal Terms of Use, available at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full or - if the customer does not have a PayPal account - subject to the terms and conditions for payments without a PayPal account, available at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacywax-full. If the customer pays by means of a payment method offered by PayPal that can be selected in the online ordering process, the seller already declares acceptance of the customer's offer at the time the customer clicks the button that completes the ordering process.

2.5 When an offer is submitted via the seller's online order form, the text of the contract is saved by the seller after the contract is concluded and sent to the customer in text form (e.g. email, fax or letter) after the customer's order has been sent. The seller will not make the text of the contract available beyond this. If the customer has set up a user account in the seller's online store before sending his order, the order data will be archived on the seller's website and can be accessed free of charge by the customer via his password-protected user account by entering the corresponding login data.

2.6 Before submitting a binding order via the seller's online order form, the customer can recognize possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means of better recognizing input errors can be the browser's magnification function, which enlarges the display on the screen. The customer can correct his entries during the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until he clicks on the button that concludes the ordering process.

2.7 The German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.

2.8 Order processing and contact are generally carried out by e-mail and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the e-mail address provided by him for order processing is correct so that the e-mails sent by the seller can be received at this address. In particular, when using SPAM filters, the customer must ensure that all e-mails sent by the seller or by third parties commissioned by the seller to process the order can be delivered.

3) Right of withdrawal

3.1 Consumers are generally entitled to a right of withdrawal.

3.2 Further information on the right of withdrawal can be found in the seller's withdrawal policy.

3.3 The right of withdrawal does not apply to consumers who do not belong to a member state of the European Union at the time the contract is concluded and whose sole place of residence and delivery address are outside the European Union at the time the contract is concluded.

4) Prices and terms of payment

4.1 Unless otherwise stated in the seller's product description, the prices quoted are total prices that include statutory VAT. Any additional delivery and shipping costs will be indicated separately in the respective product description.

4.2 For deliveries to countries outside the European Union, additional costs may be incurred in individual cases for which the seller is not responsible and which are to be borne by the customer. These include, for example, costs for the transfer of money by credit institutions (e.g. transfer fees, exchange rate fees) or import duties or taxes (e.g. customs duties). Such costs may also be incurred in relation to the transfer of funds if the delivery is not made to a country outside the European Union, but the customer makes the payment from a country outside the European Union.

4.3 The payment option(s) will be communicated to the customer in the seller's online store.

4.4 If a payment method offered via the "PayPal" payment service is selected, the payment shall be processed via PayPal, whereby PayPal may also use the services of third party payment service providers for this purpose. If the Seller also offers payment methods via PayPal for which it makes advance payments to the Customer (e.g. purchase on account or payment by installments), it assigns its payment claim in this respect to PayPal or to the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal and specifically named to the Customer. Before accepting the seller's declaration of assignment, PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal shall carry out a credit check using the transmitted customer data. The seller reserves the right to refuse the customer the selected payment method in the event of a negative check result. If the selected payment method is approved, the customer must pay the invoice amount within the agreed payment period or at the agreed payment intervals. In this case, the customer can only pay PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal with debt-discharging effect. However, even in the case of assignment of claims, the seller remains responsible for general customer inquiries, e.g. regarding goods, delivery time, shipment, returns, complaints, revocation declarations and returns or credit notes.

4.5 If the payment method "Sofortüberweisung" is selected, payment is processed by Klarna Bank AB (publ), Sveavägen 46, 11134 Stockholm, Sweden (hereinafter referred to as "Klarna"). In order to be able to pay the invoice amount via "Sofortüberweisung", the customer must have an online banking account activated for participation in "Sofortüberweisung", legitimize himself accordingly during the payment process and confirm the payment instruction. The payment transaction is then carried out immediately by Klarna and the customer's bank account is debited. The customer can find more information on the "Sofortüberweisung" payment method on the Internet at https://www.klarna.com/sofort/.

4.6 If the payment method "PayPal direct debit" is selected, PayPal will collect the invoice amount from the customer's bank account after a SEPA direct debit mandate has been issued, but not before the deadline for the pre-notification on behalf of the seller has expired. Pre-notification is any communication (e.g. invoice, policy, contract) to the customer that announces a debit by SEPA Direct Debit. If the direct debit is not honored due to insufficient funds in the account or due to the provision of incorrect bank details, or if the customer objects to the debit although he is not entitled to do so, the customer shall bear the fees incurred by the respective credit institution as a result of the chargeback if he is responsible for this.

5) Delivery and shipping conditions

5.1 If the seller offers to ship the goods, delivery shall be made within the delivery area specified by the seller to the delivery address specified by the customer, unless otherwise agreed. The delivery address specified in the seller's order processing is decisive for the processing of the transaction.

5.2 If the delivery of the goods fails for reasons for which the customer is responsible, the customer shall bear the reasonable costs incurred by the seller as a result. This does not apply with regard to the costs for the return shipment if the customer effectively exercises his right of withdrawal. If the customer effectively exercises his right of withdrawal, the provision in the seller's withdrawal policy shall apply to the return costs.

5.3 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, carrier or other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment. If the customer is acting as a consumer, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall not pass until the goods are handed over to the customer or a person authorized to receive them. Notwithstanding the above, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer, even in the case of consumers, as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment, if the customer has commissioned the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment and the seller has not previously named this person or institution to the customer.

5.4 The Seller reserves the right to withdraw from the contract in the event of incorrect or improper self-delivery. This shall only apply in the event that the Seller is not responsible for the non-delivery and the Seller has concluded a specific covering transaction with the supplier with due care. The seller shall make every reasonable effort to procure the goods. In the event of non-availability or only partial availability of the goods, the customer will be informed immediately and the consideration will be refunded without delay.

5.5 Self-collection is not possible for logistical reasons.

5.6 Digital content is provided to the customer as follows

  • by direct access via the entrepreneur's website
  • by download
  • by e-mail

5.7 License keys are provided to the customer as follows

  • by e-mail
  • by post

6) Granting of rights of use for digital content

6.1 Unless otherwise stated in the content description in the seller's online store, the seller grants the customer the non-exclusive right to use the content provided for private and commercial purposes without restriction in terms of location or time.

6.2 The transfer of the content to third parties or the creation of copies for third parties outside the scope of these GTC is not permitted unless the seller has agreed to the transfer of the contractual license to the third party.

6.3 Insofar as the contract relates to the one-off provision of digital content, the granting of rights shall only become effective once the customer has paid the remuneration owed in full. The seller may provisionally permit the use of the contractual content even before this point in time. Such provisional permission does not constitute a transfer of rights.

7) Granting of rights of use for license keys

7.1 The license key provided entitles the customer to use the digital product shown in the respective product description of the seller to the extent described therein.

7.2 Insofar as the license key relates to the one-time provision of digital content, the granting of rights shall only become effective once the customer has paid the remuneration owed in full.

8) Retention of title

8.1 In relation to consumers, the seller retains ownership of the delivered goods until the purchase price owed has been paid in full.

8.2 In relation to entrepreneurs, the seller retains ownership of the delivered goods until all claims arising from an ongoing business relationship have been settled in full.

8.3 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the following shall also apply:

If the delivered goods are processed, the Seller shall be deemed to be the manufacturer and shall acquire ownership of the newly created goods. If the processing is carried out together with other materials, the seller acquires ownership in the ratio of the invoice value of his goods to that of the other materials. If, in the case of the combination or mixing of the seller's goods with an item belonging to the customer, the latter is to be regarded as the main item, co-ownership of the item shall be transferred to the seller in the ratio of the invoice value of the seller's goods to the invoice value or, in the absence of such, to the market value of the main item. In such cases, the customer shall be deemed to be the custodian.

The customer may neither pledge nor assign by way of security items subject to retention of title or reservation of rights. The customer is only entitled to resell the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business. The customer assigns to the seller in advance all resulting claims against third parties in the amount of the respective invoice value (including VAT). This assignment shall apply irrespective of whether the reserved goods have been resold without or after processing. The customer shall remain authorized to collect the claims even after the assignment. The seller's right to collect the claims himself remains unaffected. However, the seller shall not collect the claims as long as the customer meets his payment obligations to the seller, is not in default of payment and no application for the opening of insolvency proceedings has been filed.

The customer must immediately notify the seller of any access to the goods owned or co-owned by the seller or to the assigned claims. He must immediately transfer to the seller any amounts assigned to the seller and collected by him, insofar as the seller's claim is due.

If the value of the Seller's security interests exceeds the amount of the secured claims by more than 10%, the Seller shall release a corresponding proportion of the security interests at the Customer's request.

9) Liability for defects (warranty)

Unless otherwise stated in the following provisions, the provisions of statutory liability for defects shall apply. In deviation from this, the following applies to contracts for the delivery of goods:

9.1 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur,

  • the seller has the choice of the type of subsequent performance;
  • in the case of new goods, the limitation period for warranty rights is one year from delivery of the goods;
  • in the case of used goods, the warranty rights are excluded;
  • the limitation period shall not recommence if a replacement delivery is made as part of the liability for defects.

9.2 The above limitations of liability and shortening of the limitation period shall not apply

  • to claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses by the customer,
  • in the event that the seller has fraudulently concealed the defect,
  • for goods that have been used for a building in accordance with their normal use and have caused its defectiveness,
  • for any existing obligation of the seller to provide updates for digital products, in the case of contracts for the delivery of goods with digital elements.

9.3 In addition, for entrepreneurs, the statutory limitation periods for any existing statutory right of recourse remain unaffected.

9.4 If the customer acts as a merchant within the meaning of Section 1 of the German Commercial Code (HGB), he shall be subject to the commercial obligation to inspect and give notice of defects in accordance with Section 377 HGB. If the customer fails to comply with the notification obligations regulated therein, the goods shall be deemed approved.

9.5 If the customer acts as a consumer, he is requested to complain to the deliverer about delivered goods with obvious transport damage and to inform the seller of this. If the customer fails to do so, this shall have no effect on his statutory or contractual claims for defects.

The Seller shall be liable to the Customer for all contractual, quasi-contractual and statutory claims, including claims in tort, for damages and reimbursement of expenses as follows:

10.1 The Seller shall be liable without limitation for any legal reason

  • in the event of intentional or negligent injury to life, limb or health,
  • on the basis of a guarantee promise, unless otherwise regulated in this respect,
  • due to mandatory liability such as under the Product Liability Act.

10.2 If the Seller negligently breaches a material contractual obligation, liability shall be limited to the foreseeable damage typical of the contract, unless unlimited liability applies in accordance with the above clause. Essential contractual obligations are obligations which the contract imposes on the seller according to its content in order to achieve the purpose of the contract, the fulfillment of which makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on the observance of which the customer may regularly rely.

10.3 Any further liability of the seller is excluded.

10.4 The above liability provisions also apply with regard to the liability of the seller for its vicarious agents and legal representatives.

11) Special conditions for the processing of goods according to specific customer specifications

11.1 If, according to the content of the contract, the seller is also responsible for processing the goods in accordance with certain specifications of the customer in addition to the delivery of goods, the customer must provide the seller with all content required for processing, such as texts, images or graphics in the file formats, formatting, image and file sizes specified by the seller and grant the seller the necessary rights of use. The customer is solely responsible for the procurement and acquisition of rights to this content. The customer declares and assumes responsibility that he has the right to use the content provided to the seller. In particular, he shall ensure that no third-party rights are infringed, especially copyrights, trademark rights and personal rights.

11.2 The customer shall indemnify the seller against claims by third parties which they may assert against the seller in connection with an infringement of their rights through the contractual use of the customer's content by the seller. The customer shall also assume the necessary costs of legal defense, including all court and attorney's fees in the statutory amount. This does not apply if the customer is not responsible for the infringement. In the event of a claim by a third party, the customer is obliged to provide the seller immediately, truthfully and completely with all information necessary for the examination of the claims and a defense.

11.3 The seller reserves the right to refuse processing orders if the content provided by the customer for this purpose violates legal or official prohibitions or offends common decency. This applies in particular to the provision of anti-constitutional, racist, xenophobic, discriminatory, offensive, youth-endangering and/or violence-glorifying content.

12) Applicable law

12.1 The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to all legal relationships between the parties to the exclusion of the laws on the international purchase of movable goods. In the case of consumers, this choice of law shall only apply insofar as the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which the consumer has his habitual residence is not withdrawn.

12.2 Furthermore, this choice of law with regard to the statutory right of withdrawal does not apply to consumers who do not belong to a member state of the European Union at the time of conclusion of the contract and whose sole place of residence and delivery address are outside the European Union at the time of conclusion of the contract.

13) Alternative dispute resolution

The seller is neither obliged nor willing to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.

The inclusion of the Customer's own terms and conditions is hereby rejected, unless otherwise agreed.

1.6 An entrepreneur within the meaning of these GTC is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.

2) Conclusion of contract

2.1 The product descriptions contained in the seller's online store do not constitute binding offers on the part of the seller, but serve to submit a binding offer by the customer.

2.2 The customer can submit the offer via the online order form integrated into the seller's online store. After placing the selected goods in the virtual shopping cart and going through the electronic ordering process, the customer submits a legally binding contractual offer with regard to the goods contained in the shopping cart by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process. Furthermore, the customer can also submit the offer to the seller by e-mail, fax, online contact form, post or telephone.

2.3 The seller can accept the customer's offer within five days,

  • by sending the customer a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or e-mail), whereby the receipt of the order confirmation by the customer is decisive in this respect, or
  • by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, whereby the receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive, or
  • by requesting payment from the customer after the customer has placed the order.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract is concluded at the point in time at which one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. The period for accepting the offer begins on the day after the offer is sent by the customer and ends at the end of the fifth day following the sending of the offer. If the seller does not accept the customer's offer within the aforementioned period, this shall be deemed a rejection of the offer with the consequence that the customer is no longer bound by his declaration of intent.

2.4 If a payment method offered by PayPal is selected, payment shall be processed via the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter: "PayPal"), subject to the PayPal Terms of Use, available at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full or - if the customer does not have a PayPal account - subject to the terms and conditions for payments without a PayPal account, available at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacywax-full.

2.5 When an offer is submitted via the seller's online order form, the text of the contract is saved by the seller after the contract is concluded and sent to the customer in text form (e.g. email, fax or letter) after the customer's order has been sent. The seller will not make the text of the contract available beyond this. If the customer has set up a user account in the seller's online store before sending his order, the order data will be archived on the seller's website and can be accessed free of charge by the customer via his password-protected user account by entering the corresponding login data.

2.6 Before submitting a binding order via the seller's online order form, the customer can recognize possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means of better recognizing input errors can be the browser's magnification function, which enlarges the display on the screen. The customer can correct his entries during the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until he clicks on the button that concludes the ordering process.

2.7 The German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.

2.8 Order processing and contact are generally carried out by e-mail and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the e-mail address provided by him for order processing is correct so that the e-mails sent by the seller can be received at this address. In particular, when using SPAM filters, the customer must ensure that all e-mails sent by the seller or by third parties commissioned by the seller to process the order can be delivered.

3) Right of withdrawal

3.1 Consumers are generally entitled to a right of withdrawal.

3.2 Further information on the right of withdrawal can be found in the seller's withdrawal policy.

3.3 The right of withdrawal does not apply to consumers who do not belong to a member state of the European Union at the time the contract is concluded and whose sole place of residence and delivery address are outside the European Union at the time the contract is concluded.

4) Prices and terms of payment

4.1 Unless otherwise stated in the seller's product description, the prices quoted are total prices that include statutory VAT. Any additional delivery and shipping costs will be indicated separately in the respective product description.

4.2 For deliveries to countries outside the European Union, additional costs may be incurred in individual cases for which the seller is not responsible and which are to be borne by the customer. These include, for example, costs for the transfer of money by credit institutions (e.g. transfer fees, exchange rate fees) or import duties or taxes (e.g. customs duties). Such costs may also be incurred in relation to the transfer of funds if the delivery is not made to a country outside the European Union, but the customer makes the payment from a country outside the European Union.

4.3 The payment option(s) will be communicated to the customer in the seller's online store.

4.4 If a payment method offered via the "PayPal" payment service is selected, the payment shall be processed via PayPal, whereby PayPal may also use the services of third party payment service providers for this purpose. If the Seller also offers payment methods via PayPal for which it makes advance payments to the Customer (e.g. purchase on account or payment by installments), it assigns its payment claim in this respect to PayPal or to the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal and specifically named to the Customer. Before accepting the seller's declaration of assignment, PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal shall carry out a credit check using the transmitted customer data. The seller reserves the right to refuse the customer the selected payment method in the event of a negative check result. If the selected payment method is approved, the customer must pay the invoice amount within the agreed payment period or at the agreed payment intervals. In this case, the customer can only pay PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal with debt-discharging effect. However, even in the case of assignment of claims, the seller remains responsible for general customer inquiries, e.g. regarding goods, delivery time, shipment, returns, complaints, revocation declarations and returns or credit notes.

4.5 If the payment method "Sofortüberweisung" is selected, payment is processed by Klarna Bank AB (publ), Sveavägen 46, 11134 Stockholm, Sweden (hereinafter referred to as "Klarna"). In order to be able to pay the invoice amount via "Sofortüberweisung", the customer must have an online banking account activated for participation in "Sofortüberweisung", legitimize himself accordingly during the payment process and confirm the payment instruction. The payment transaction is then carried out immediately by Klarna and the customer's bank account is debited. The customer can find more information on the "Sofortüberweisung" payment method on the Internet at https://www.klarna.com/sofort/.

4.6 If the payment method "PayPal direct debit" is selected, PayPal will collect the invoice amount from the customer's bank account after a SEPA direct debit mandate has been issued, but not before the deadline for the pre-notification on behalf of the seller has expired. Pre-notification is any communication (e.g. invoice, policy, contract) to the customer that announces a debit by SEPA Direct Debit. If the direct debit is not honored due to insufficient funds in the account or due to the provision of incorrect bank details, or if the customer objects to the debit although he is not entitled to do so, the customer shall bear the fees incurred by the respective credit institution as a result of the chargeback if he is responsible for this.

5) Delivery and shipping conditions

5.1 If the seller offers to ship the goods, delivery shall be made within the delivery area specified by the seller to the delivery address specified by the customer, unless otherwise agreed. The delivery address specified in the seller's order processing is decisive for the processing of the transaction.

5.2 If the delivery of the goods fails for reasons for which the customer is responsible, the customer shall bear the reasonable costs incurred by the seller as a result. This does not apply with regard to the costs for the return shipment if the customer effectively exercises his right of withdrawal. If the customer effectively exercises his right of revocation, the provision in the seller's revocation instructions shall apply to the return costs.

5.3 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, carrier or other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment. If the customer is acting as a consumer, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall not pass until the goods are handed over to the customer or a person authorized to receive them. Notwithstanding the above, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer, even in the case of consumers, as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment, if the customer has commissioned the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment and the seller has not previously named this person or institution to the customer.

5.4 The Seller reserves the right to withdraw from the contract in the event of incorrect or improper self-delivery. This shall only apply in the event that the Seller is not responsible for the non-delivery and the Seller has concluded a specific covering transaction with the supplier with due care. The seller shall make every reasonable effort to procure the goods. In the event of non-availability or only partial availability of the goods, the customer will be informed immediately and the consideration will be refunded without delay.

5.5 Self-collection is not possible for logistical reasons.

5.6 Digital content is provided to the customer as follows

  • by direct access via the entrepreneur's website
  • by download
  • by e-mail

5.7 License keys are provided to the customer as follows

  • by e-mail
  • by post

6) Granting of rights of use for digital content

6.1 Unless otherwise stated in the content description in the seller's online store, the seller grants the customer the non-exclusive right to use the content provided for private and commercial purposes without restriction in terms of location or time.

6.2 The transfer of the content to third parties or the creation of copies for third parties outside the scope of these GTC is not permitted unless the seller has agreed to the transfer of the contractual license to the third party.

6.3 Insofar as the contract relates to the one-off provision of digital content, the granting of rights shall only become effective once the customer has paid the remuneration owed in full. The seller may provisionally permit the use of the contractual content even before this point in time. Such provisional permission does not constitute a transfer of rights.

7) Granting of rights of use for license keys

7.1 The license key provided entitles the customer to use the digital product shown in the respective product description of the seller to the extent described therein.

7.2 Insofar as the license key relates to the one-time provision of digital content, the granting of rights shall only become effective once the customer has paid the remuneration owed in full.

8) Retention of title

8.1 In relation to consumers, the seller retains ownership of the delivered goods until the purchase price owed has been paid in full.

8.2 In relation to entrepreneurs, the seller retains ownership of the delivered goods until all claims arising from an ongoing business relationship have been settled in full.

8.3 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the following shall also apply:

If the delivered goods are processed, the Seller shall be deemed to be the manufacturer and shall acquire ownership of the newly created goods. If the processing is carried out together with other materials, the seller acquires ownership in the ratio of the invoice value of his goods to that of the other materials. If, in the case of the combination or mixing of the seller's goods with an item belonging to the customer, the latter is to be regarded as the main item, co-ownership of the item shall be transferred to the seller in the ratio of the invoice value of the seller's goods to the invoice value or, in the absence of such, to the market value of the main item. In such cases, the customer shall be deemed to be the custodian.

The customer may neither pledge nor assign by way of security items subject to retention of title or reservation of rights. The customer is only entitled to resell the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business. The customer assigns to the seller in advance all resulting claims against third parties in the amount of the respective invoice value (including VAT). This assignment shall apply irrespective of whether the reserved goods have been resold without or after processing. The customer shall remain authorized to collect the claims even after the assignment. The seller's right to collect the claims himself remains unaffected. However, the seller shall not collect the claims as long as the customer meets his payment obligations to the seller, is not in default of payment and no application for the opening of insolvency proceedings has been filed.

The customer must immediately notify the seller of any access to the goods owned or co-owned by the seller or to the assigned claims. He must immediately transfer to the seller any amounts assigned to the seller and collected by him, insofar as the seller's claim is due.

If the value of the Seller's security interests exceeds the amount of the secured claims by more than 10%, the Seller shall release a corresponding proportion of the security interests at the Customer's request.

9) Liability for defects (warranty)

Unless otherwise stated in the following provisions, the provisions of statutory liability for defects shall apply. In deviation from this, the following applies to contracts for the delivery of goods:

9.1 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur,

  • the seller has the choice of the type of subsequent performance;
  • in the case of new goods, the limitation period for warranty rights is one year from delivery of the goods;
  • in the case of used goods, the warranty rights are excluded;
  • the limitation period shall not recommence if a replacement delivery is made as part of the liability for defects.

9.2 The above limitations of liability and shortening of the limitation period shall not apply

  • to claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses by the customer,
  • in the event that the seller has fraudulently concealed the defect,
  • for goods that have been used for a building in accordance with their normal use and have caused its defectiveness,
  • for any existing obligation of the seller to provide updates for digital products, in the case of contracts for the delivery of goods with digital elements.

9.3 In addition, for entrepreneurs, the statutory limitation periods for any existing statutory right of recourse remain unaffected.

9.4 If the customer acts as a merchant within the meaning of Section 1 of the German Commercial Code (HGB), he shall be subject to the commercial obligation to inspect and give notice of defects in accordance with Section 377 HGB. If the customer fails to comply with the notification obligations regulated therein, the goods shall be deemed approved.

9.5 If the customer acts as a consumer, he is requested to complain to the deliverer about delivered goods with obvious transport damage and to inform the seller of this. If the customer fails to do so, this shall have no effect on his statutory or contractual claims for defects.

10) Liability

The Seller shall be liable to the Customer for all contractual, quasi-contractual and statutory claims, including claims in tort, for damages and reimbursement of expenses as follows:

10.1 The Seller shall be liable without limitation for any legal reason

  • in the event of intent or gross negligence,
  • in the event of intentional or negligent injury to life, limb or health,
  • on the basis of a guarantee promise, unless otherwise regulated in this respect,
  • due to mandatory liability such as under the Product Liability Act.

10.2 If the Seller negligently breaches a material contractual obligation, liability shall be limited to the foreseeable damage typical of the contract, unless unlimited liability applies in accordance with the above clause. Essential contractual obligations are obligations which the contract imposes on the seller according to its content in order to achieve the purpose of the contract, the fulfillment of which makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on the observance of which the customer may regularly rely.

10.3 Any further liability of the seller is excluded.

10.4 The above liability provisions also apply with regard to the liability of the seller for its vicarious agents and legal representatives.

11) Special conditions for the processing of goods according to specific customer specifications

11.1 If, according to the content of the contract, the seller is also responsible for processing the goods in accordance with certain specifications of the customer in addition to the delivery of goods, the customer must provide the seller with all content required for processing, such as texts, images or graphics in the file formats, formatting, image and file sizes specified by the seller and grant the seller the necessary rights of use. The customer is solely responsible for the procurement and acquisition of rights to this content. The customer declares and assumes responsibility that he has the right to use the content provided to the seller. In particular, he shall ensure that no third-party rights are infringed, especially copyrights, trademark rights and personal rights.

11.2 The customer shall indemnify the seller against claims by third parties which they may assert against the seller in connection with an infringement of their rights through the contractual use of the customer's content by the seller. The customer shall also assume the necessary costs of legal defense, including all court and attorney's fees in the statutory amount. This does not apply if the customer is not responsible for the infringement. In the event of a claim by a third party, the customer is obliged to provide the seller immediately, truthfully and completely with all information necessary for the examination of the claims and a defense.

11.3 The seller reserves the right to refuse processing orders if the content provided by the customer for this purpose violates legal or official prohibitions or offends common decency. This applies in particular to the provision of anti-constitutional, racist, xenophobic, discriminatory, offensive, youth-endangering and/or violence-glorifying content.

12) Applicable law

12.1 The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to all legal relationships between the parties, to the exclusion of the laws on the international sale of goods. In the case of consumers, this choice of law shall only apply insofar as the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which the consumer has his habitual residence is not withdrawn.

12.2 Furthermore, with regard to the statutory right of withdrawal, this choice of law does not apply to consumers who do not belong to a member state of the European Union at the time the contract is concluded and whose sole place of residence and delivery address are outside the European Union at the time the contract is concluded.

13) Alternative dispute resolution

The seller is neither obliged nor willing to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.

The inclusion of the Customer's own terms and conditions is hereby rejected, unless otherwise agreed.

1.2 These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the delivery of physical data carriers that serve exclusively as carriers of digital content, unless otherwise agreed. Digital content within the meaning of these GTC is data that is created and provided in digital form.

1.3 These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the provision of digital content, unless otherwise agreed. Digital content within the meaning of these GTC is data that is created and provided in digital form.

1.4 These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the provision of license keys, unless otherwise agreed. In this case, the seller owes the provision of a license key for the use of the digital content or digital services described by it (hereinafter "digital products") as well as the granting of the contractually agreed rights to use the respective digital products. The customer does not acquire any intellectual property rights to the digital product. The respective product description of the seller is decisive for the quality of the digital product.

1.5 A consumer within the meaning of these GTC is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that cannot be attributed primarily to their commercial or independent professional activity.

1.6 An entrepreneur within the meaning of these GTC is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.

2) Conclusion of contract

2.1 The product descriptions contained in the seller's online store do not constitute binding offers on the part of the seller, but serve to submit a binding offer by the customer.

2.2 The customer can submit the offer via the online order form integrated into the seller's online store. After placing the selected goods in the virtual shopping cart and going through the electronic ordering process, the customer submits a legally binding contractual offer with regard to the goods contained in the shopping cart by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process. Furthermore, the customer can also submit the offer to the seller by e-mail, fax, online contact form, post or telephone.

2.3 The seller can accept the customer's offer within five days,

  • by sending the customer a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or e-mail), whereby the receipt of the order confirmation by the customer is decisive in this respect, or
  • by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, whereby the receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive, or
  • by requesting payment from the customer after the customer has placed the order.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract is concluded at the point in time at which one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. The period for accepting the offer begins on the day after the offer is sent by the customer and ends at the end of the fifth day following the sending of the offer. If the seller does not accept the customer's offer within the aforementioned period, this shall be deemed a rejection of the offer with the consequence that the customer is no longer bound by his declaration of intent.

2.4 If a payment method offered by PayPal is selected, payment shall be processed via the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter: "PayPal"), subject to the PayPal Terms of Use, available at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full or - if the customer does not have a PayPal account - subject to the terms and conditions for payments without a PayPal account, available at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacywax-full. If the customer pays by means of a payment method offered by PayPal that can be selected in the online ordering process, the seller already declares acceptance of the customer's offer at the time the customer clicks the button that completes the ordering process.

2.5 When an offer is submitted via the seller's online order form, the text of the contract is saved by the seller after the contract is concluded and sent to the customer in text form (e.g. email, fax or letter) after the customer's order has been sent. The seller will not make the text of the contract available beyond this. If the customer has set up a user account in the seller's online store before sending his order, the order data will be archived on the seller's website and can be accessed free of charge by the customer via his password-protected user account by entering the corresponding login data.

2.6 Before submitting a binding order via the seller's online order form, the customer can recognize possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means of better recognizing input errors can be the browser's magnification function, which enlarges the display on the screen. The customer can correct his entries during the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until he clicks on the button that concludes the ordering process.

2.7 The German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.

2.8 Order processing and contact are generally carried out by e-mail and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the e-mail address provided by him for order processing is correct so that the e-mails sent by the seller can be received at this address. In particular, when using SPAM filters, the customer must ensure that all e-mails sent by the seller or by third parties commissioned by the seller to process the order can be delivered.

3) Right of withdrawal

3.1 Consumers are generally entitled to a right of withdrawal.

3.2 Further information on the right of withdrawal can be found in the seller's withdrawal policy.

4) Prices and terms of payment

4.1 Unless otherwise stated in the seller's product description, the prices quoted are total prices that include statutory VAT. Any additional delivery and shipping costs will be indicated separately in the respective product description.

4.2 For deliveries to countries outside the European Union, additional costs may be incurred in individual cases for which the seller is not responsible and which are to be borne by the customer. These include, for example, costs for the transfer of money by credit institutions (e.g. transfer fees, exchange rate fees) or import duties or taxes (e.g. customs duties). Such costs may also be incurred in relation to the transfer of funds if the delivery is not made to a country outside the European Union, but the customer makes the payment from a country outside the European Union.

4.3 The payment option(s) will be communicated to the customer in the seller's online store.

4.4 If a payment method offered via the "PayPal" payment service is selected, the payment shall be processed via PayPal, whereby PayPal may also use the services of third party payment service providers for this purpose. If the Seller also offers payment methods via PayPal for which it makes advance payments to the Customer (e.g. purchase on account or payment by installments), it assigns its payment claim in this respect to PayPal or to the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal and specifically named to the Customer. Before accepting the seller's declaration of assignment, PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal shall carry out a credit check using the transmitted customer data. The seller reserves the right to refuse the customer the selected payment method in the event of a negative check result. If the selected payment method is approved, the customer must pay the invoice amount within the agreed payment period or at the agreed payment intervals. In this case, the customer can only pay PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal with debt-discharging effect. However, even in the case of assignment of claims, the seller remains responsible for general customer inquiries, e.g. regarding goods, delivery time, shipment, returns, complaints, revocation declarations and returns or credit notes.

4.5 If the payment method "Sofortüberweisung" is selected, payment is processed by Klarna Bank AB (publ), Sveavägen 46, 11134 Stockholm, Sweden (hereinafter referred to as "Klarna"). In order to be able to pay the invoice amount via "Sofortüberweisung", the customer must have an online banking account activated for participation in "Sofortüberweisung", legitimize himself accordingly during the payment process and confirm the payment instruction. The payment transaction is then carried out immediately by Klarna and the customer's bank account is debited. The customer can find more information on the "Sofortüberweisung" payment method on the Internet at https://www.klarna.com/sofort/.

4.6 If the payment method "PayPal direct debit" is selected, PayPal will collect the invoice amount from the customer's bank account after a SEPA direct debit mandate has been issued, but not before the deadline for the pre-notification on behalf of the seller has expired. Pre-notification is any communication (e.g. invoice, policy, contract) to the customer that announces a debit by SEPA Direct Debit. If the direct debit is not honored due to insufficient funds in the account or due to the provision of incorrect bank details, or if the customer objects to the debit although he is not entitled to do so, the customer shall bear the fees incurred by the respective credit institution as a result of the chargeback if he is responsible for this.

5) Delivery and shipping conditions

5.1 If the seller offers to ship the goods, delivery shall be made within the delivery area specified by the seller to the delivery address specified by the customer, unless otherwise agreed. The delivery address specified in the seller's order processing is decisive for the processing of the transaction.

5.2 If the delivery of the goods fails for reasons for which the customer is responsible, the customer shall bear the reasonable costs incurred by the seller as a result. This does not apply with regard to the costs for the return shipment if the customer effectively exercises his right of withdrawal. If the customer effectively exercises his right of withdrawal, the provision in the seller's withdrawal policy shall apply to the return costs.

5.3 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, carrier or other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment. If the customer is acting as a consumer, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall not pass until the goods are handed over to the customer or a person authorized to receive them. Notwithstanding this, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer, even in the case of consumers, as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment, if the customer has commissioned the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment and the seller has not previously named this person or institution to the customer.

5.4 The Seller reserves the right to withdraw from the contract in the event of incorrect or improper self-delivery. This shall only apply in the event that the Seller is not responsible for the non-delivery and the Seller has concluded a specific covering transaction with the supplier with due care. The seller shall make every reasonable effort to procure the goods. In the event of non-availability or only partial availability of the goods, the customer will be informed immediately and the consideration will be refunded without delay.

6.3 Insofar as the contract relates to the one-off provision of digital content, the granting of rights shall only become effective once the customer has paid the remuneration owed in full. The seller may provisionally permit the use of the contractual content even before this point in time. Such provisional permission does not constitute a transfer of rights.

7) Granting of rights of use for license keys

7.1 The license key provided entitles the customer to use the digital product shown in the respective product description of the seller to the extent described therein.

In such cases, the customer shall be deemed to be the custodian.

The customer may neither pledge nor assign by way of security items subject to retention of title or reservation of rights. The customer is only entitled to resell the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business. The customer assigns to the seller in advance all resulting claims against third parties in the amount of the respective invoice value (including VAT). This assignment shall apply irrespective of whether the reserved goods have been resold without or after processing. The customer shall remain authorized to collect the claims even after the assignment. The seller's right to collect the claims himself remains unaffected. However, the seller shall not collect the claims as long as the customer meets his payment obligations to the seller, is not in default of payment and no application for the opening of insolvency proceedings has been filed.

The customer must immediately notify the seller of any access to the goods owned or co-owned by the seller or to the assigned claims. He must immediately transfer to the seller any amounts assigned to the seller and collected by him, insofar as the seller's claim is due.

If the value of the Seller's security interests exceeds the amount of the secured claims by more than 10%, the Seller shall release a corresponding proportion of the security interests at the Customer's request.

11.1 If, according to the content of the contract, the seller is also responsible for processing the goods in accordance with certain specifications of the customer in addition to the delivery of goods, the customer must provide the seller with all content required for processing, such as texts, images or graphics in the file formats, formatting, image and file sizes specified by the seller and grant the seller the necessary rights of use. The customer is solely responsible for the procurement and acquisition of rights to this content. The customer declares and accepts responsibility for ensuring that he has the right to use the content provided to the seller. In particular, he shall ensure that no third-party rights are infringed, especially copyrights, trademark rights and personal rights.

11.2 The customer shall indemnify the seller against claims by third parties which they may assert against the seller in connection with an infringement of their rights through the contractual use of the customer's content by the seller. The customer shall also assume the necessary costs of legal defense, including all court and attorney's fees in the statutory amount. This does not apply if the customer is not responsible for the infringement. In the event of a claim by a third party, the customer is obliged to provide the seller immediately, truthfully and completely with all information necessary for the examination of the claims and a defense.

11.3 The seller reserves the right to refuse processing orders if the content provided by the customer for this purpose violates legal or official prohibitions or offends common decency. This applies in particular to the provision of anti-constitutional, racist, xenophobic, discriminatory, offensive, youth-endangering and/or violence-glorifying content.

12) Applicable law

12.1 The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to all legal relationships between the parties to the exclusion of the laws on the international purchase of movable goods. In the case of consumers, this choice of law shall only apply insofar as the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which the consumer has his habitual residence is not withdrawn.

12.2 Furthermore, with regard to the statutory right of withdrawal, this choice of law does not apply to consumers who do not belong to a member state of the European Union at the time the contract is concluded and whose sole place of residence and delivery address are outside the European Union at the time the contract is concluded.

13) Alternative dispute resolution

The seller is neither obliged nor willing to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.

1) Scope of application

1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "GTC") of the company Manuel Frey (hereinafter referred to as "Seller") shall apply to all contracts concluded between a consumer or a trader (hereinafter referred to as "Client") and the Seller relating to all goods and/or services presented in the Seller's online store. The inclusion of the Customer's own terms and conditions is hereby rejected, unless otherwise agreed.

1.2 These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the delivery of physical data carriers that serve exclusively as carriers of digital content, unless otherwise agreed. Digital content within the meaning of these GTC is data that is created and provided in digital form.

1.3 These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the provision of digital content, unless otherwise agreed. Digital content within the meaning of these GTC is data that is created and provided in digital form.

1.4 These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the provision of license keys, unless otherwise agreed. In this case, the seller owes the provision of a license key for the use of the digital content or digital services described by it (hereinafter "digital products") as well as the granting of the contractually agreed rights to use the respective digital products. The customer does not acquire any intellectual property rights to the digital product. The respective product description of the seller is decisive for the quality of the digital product.

1.5 A consumer within the meaning of these GTC is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that cannot be attributed primarily to their commercial or independent professional activity.

1.6 An entrepreneur within the meaning of these GTC is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.

2) Conclusion of contract

2.1 The product descriptions contained in the seller's online store do not constitute binding offers on the part of the seller, but serve to submit a binding offer by the customer.

2.2 The customer can submit the offer via the online order form integrated into the seller's online store. After placing the selected goods in the virtual shopping cart and going through the electronic ordering process, the customer submits a legally binding contractual offer with regard to the goods contained in the shopping cart by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process. Furthermore, the customer can also submit the offer to the seller by e-mail, fax, online contact form, post or telephone.

2.3 The seller can accept the customer's offer within five days,

  • by sending the customer a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or e-mail), whereby the receipt of the order confirmation by the customer is decisive in this respect, or
  • by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, whereby the receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive, or
  • by requesting payment from the customer after the customer has placed the order.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract is concluded at the point in time at which one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. The period for accepting the offer begins on the day after the offer is sent by the customer and ends at the end of the fifth day following the sending of the offer. If the seller does not accept the customer's offer within the aforementioned period, this shall be deemed a rejection of the offer with the consequence that the customer is no longer bound by his declaration of intent.

2.4 If a payment method offered by PayPal is selected, payment shall be processed via the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter: "PayPal"), subject to the PayPal Terms of Use, available at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full or - if the customer does not have a PayPal account - subject to the terms and conditions for payments without a PayPal account, available at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacywax-full. If the customer pays by means of a payment method offered by PayPal that can be selected in the online ordering process, the seller already declares acceptance of the customer's offer at the time the customer clicks the button that completes the ordering process.

2.5 When an offer is submitted via the seller's online order form, the text of the contract is saved by the seller after the contract is concluded and sent to the customer in text form (e.g. email, fax or letter) after the customer's order has been sent. The seller will not make the text of the contract available beyond this. If the customer has set up a user account in the seller's online store before sending his order, the order data will be archived on the seller's website and can be accessed free of charge by the customer via his password-protected user account by entering the corresponding login data.

2.6 Before submitting a binding order via the seller's online order form, the customer can recognize possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means of better recognizing input errors can be the browser's magnification function, which enlarges the display on the screen. The customer can correct his entries during the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until he clicks on the button that concludes the ordering process.

2.7 The German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.

2.8 Order processing and contact are generally carried out by e-mail and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the e-mail address provided by him for order processing is correct so that the e-mails sent by the seller can be received at this address. In particular, when using SPAM filters, the customer must ensure that all e-mails sent by the seller or by third parties commissioned by the seller to process the order can be delivered.

3) Right of withdrawal

3.1 Consumers are generally entitled to a right of withdrawal.

3.2 Further information on the right of withdrawal can be found in the seller's withdrawal policy.

3.3 The right of withdrawal does not apply to consumers who do not belong to a member state of the European Union at the time the contract is concluded and whose sole place of residence and delivery address are outside the European Union at the time the contract is concluded.

4) Prices and terms of payment

4.1 Unless otherwise stated in the seller's product description, the prices quoted are total prices that include statutory VAT. Any additional delivery and shipping costs will be indicated separately in the respective product description.

4.2 For deliveries to countries outside the European Union, additional costs may be incurred in individual cases for which the seller is not responsible and which are to be borne by the customer. These include, for example, costs for the transfer of money by credit institutions (e.g. transfer fees, exchange rate fees) or import duties or taxes (e.g. customs duties). Such costs may also be incurred in relation to the transfer of funds if the delivery is not made to a country outside the European Union, but the customer makes the payment from a country outside the European Union.

4.3 The payment option(s) will be communicated to the customer in the seller's online store.

4.4 If a payment method offered via the "PayPal" payment service is selected, the payment shall be processed via PayPal, whereby PayPal may also use the services of third party payment service providers for this purpose. If the Seller also offers payment methods via PayPal for which it makes advance payments to the Customer (e.g. purchase on account or payment by installments), it assigns its payment claim in this respect to PayPal or to the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal and specifically named to the Customer. Before accepting the seller's declaration of assignment, PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal shall carry out a credit check using the transmitted customer data. The seller reserves the right to refuse the customer the selected payment method in the event of a negative check result. If the selected payment method is approved, the customer must pay the invoice amount within the agreed payment period or at the agreed payment intervals. In this case, the customer can only pay PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal with debt-discharging effect. However, even in the case of assignment of claims, the seller remains responsible for general customer inquiries, e.g. regarding goods, delivery time, shipment, returns, complaints, revocation declarations and returns or credit notes.

4.5 If the payment method "Sofortüberweisung" is selected, payment is processed by Klarna Bank AB (publ), Sveavägen 46, 11134 Stockholm, Sweden (hereinafter referred to as "Klarna"). In order to be able to pay the invoice amount via "Sofortüberweisung", the customer must have an online banking account activated for participation in "Sofortüberweisung", legitimize himself accordingly during the payment process and confirm the payment instruction. The payment transaction is then carried out immediately by Klarna and the customer's bank account is debited. The customer can find more information on the "Sofortüberweisung" payment method on the Internet at https://www.klarna.com/sofort/.

4.6 If the payment method "PayPal direct debit" is selected, PayPal will collect the invoice amount from the customer's bank account after a SEPA direct debit mandate has been issued, but not before the deadline for the pre-notification on behalf of the seller has expired. Pre-notification is any communication (e.g. invoice, policy, contract) to the customer that announces a debit by SEPA Direct Debit. If the direct debit is not honored due to insufficient funds in the account or due to the provision of incorrect bank details, or if the customer objects to the debit although he is not entitled to do so, the customer shall bear the fees incurred by the respective credit institution as a result of the chargeback if he is responsible for this.

5) Delivery and shipping conditions

5.1 If the seller offers to ship the goods, delivery shall be made within the delivery area specified by the seller to the delivery address specified by the customer, unless otherwise agreed. The delivery address specified in the seller's order processing is decisive for the processing of the transaction.

5.2 If the delivery of the goods fails for reasons for which the customer is responsible, the customer shall bear the reasonable costs incurred by the seller as a result. This does not apply with regard to the costs for the return shipment if the customer effectively exercises his right of withdrawal. If the customer effectively exercises his right of withdrawal, the provision in the seller's withdrawal policy shall apply to the return costs.

5.3 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, carrier or other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment. If the customer is acting as a consumer, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall not pass until the goods are handed over to the customer or a person authorized to receive them. Notwithstanding this, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer, even in the case of consumers, as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment, if the customer has commissioned the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment and the seller has not previously named this person or institution to the customer.

5.4 The Seller reserves the right to withdraw from the contract in the event of incorrect or improper self-delivery. This shall only apply in the event that the Seller is not responsible for the non-delivery and the Seller has concluded a specific covering transaction with the supplier with due care. The seller shall make every reasonable effort to procure the goods. In the event of non-availability or only partial availability of the goods, the customer will be informed immediately and the consideration will be refunded without delay.

5.5 Self-collection is not possible for logistical reasons.

5.6 Digital content is provided to the customer as follows

  • by direct access via the entrepreneur's website
  • by download
  • by e-mail

5.7 License keys are provided to the customer as follows

  • by e-mail
  • by post

6) Granting of rights of use for digital content

6.1 Unless otherwise stated in the content description in the seller's online store, the seller grants the customer the non-exclusive right to use the content provided for private and commercial purposes without restriction in terms of location or time.

6.2 The transfer of the content to third parties or the creation of copies for third parties outside the scope of these GTC is not permitted unless the seller has agreed to the transfer of the contractual license to the third party.

6.3 Insofar as the contract relates to the one-off provision of digital content, the granting of rights shall only become effective once the customer has paid the remuneration owed in full. The seller may provisionally permit the use of the contractual content even before this point in time. Such provisional permission does not constitute a transfer of rights.

7) Granting of rights of use for license keys

7.1 The license key provided entitles the customer to use the digital product shown in the respective product description of the seller to the extent described therein.

7.2 Insofar as the license key relates to the one-time provision of digital content, the granting of rights shall only become effective once the customer has paid the remuneration owed in full.

8) Retention of title

8.1 In relation to consumers, the seller retains ownership of the delivered goods until the purchase price owed has been paid in full.

8.2 In relation to entrepreneurs, the seller retains ownership of the delivered goods until all claims arising from an ongoing business relationship have been settled in full.

8.3 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the following shall also apply:

If the delivered goods are processed, the Seller shall be deemed to be the manufacturer and shall acquire ownership of the newly created goods. If the processing is carried out together with other materials, the seller acquires ownership in the ratio of the invoice value of his goods to that of the other materials. If, in the case of the combination or mixing of the seller's goods with an item belonging to the customer, the latter is to be regarded as the main item, co-ownership of the item shall be transferred to the seller in the ratio of the invoice value of the seller's goods to the invoice value or, in the absence of such, to the market value of the main item. In such cases, the customer shall be deemed to be the custodian.

The customer may neither pledge nor assign by way of security items subject to retention of title or reservation of rights. The customer is only entitled to resell the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business. The customer assigns to the seller in advance all resulting claims against third parties in the amount of the respective invoice value (including VAT). This assignment shall apply irrespective of whether the reserved goods have been resold without or after processing. The customer shall remain authorized to collect the claims even after the assignment. The seller's right to collect the claims himself remains unaffected. However, the seller shall not collect the claims as long as the customer meets his payment obligations to the seller, is not in default of payment and no application for the opening of insolvency proceedings has been filed.

The customer must immediately notify the seller of any access to the goods owned or co-owned by the seller or to the assigned claims. He must immediately transfer to the seller any amounts assigned to the seller and collected by him, insofar as the seller's claim is due.

If the value of the Seller's security interests exceeds the amount of the secured claims by more than 10%, the Seller shall release a corresponding proportion of the security interests at the Customer's request.

9) Liability for defects (warranty)

Unless otherwise stated in the following provisions, the provisions of statutory liability for defects shall apply. In deviation from this, the following applies to contracts for the delivery of goods:

9.1 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur,

  • the seller has the choice of the type of subsequent performance;
  • in the case of new goods, the limitation period for warranty rights is one year from delivery of the goods;
  • in the case of used goods, the warranty rights are excluded;
  • the limitation period shall not recommence if a replacement delivery is made as part of the liability for defects.

9.2 The above limitations of liability and shortening of the limitation period shall not apply

  • to claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses by the customer,
  • in the event that the seller has fraudulently concealed the defect,
  • for goods that have been used for a building in accordance with their normal use and have caused its defectiveness,
  • for any existing obligation of the seller to provide updates for digital products, in the case of contracts for the delivery of goods with digital elements.

9.3 In addition, for entrepreneurs, the statutory limitation periods for any existing statutory right of recourse remain unaffected.

9.4 If the customer acts as a merchant within the meaning of Section 1 of the German Commercial Code (HGB), he shall be subject to the commercial obligation to inspect and give notice of defects in accordance with Section 377 HGB. If the customer fails to comply with the notification obligations regulated therein, the goods shall be deemed approved.

9.5 If the customer acts as a consumer, he is requested to complain to the deliverer about delivered goods with obvious transport damage and to inform the seller of this. If the customer fails to do so, this shall have no effect on his statutory or contractual claims for defects.

10) Liability

The Seller shall be liable to the Customer for all contractual, quasi-contractual and statutory claims, including claims in tort, for damages and reimbursement of expenses as follows:

10.1 The Seller shall be liable without limitation for any legal reason

  • in the event of intent or gross negligence,
  • in the event of intentional or negligent injury to life, limb or health,
  • on the basis of a guarantee promise, unless otherwise regulated in this respect,
  • due to mandatory liability such as under the Product Liability Act.

10.2 If the Seller negligently breaches a material contractual obligation, liability shall be limited to the foreseeable damage typical of the contract, unless unlimited liability applies in accordance with the above clause. Essential contractual obligations are obligations which the contract imposes on the seller according to its content in order to achieve the purpose of the contract, the fulfillment of which makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on the observance of which the customer may regularly rely.

10.3 Any further liability of the seller is excluded.

10.4 The above liability provisions also apply with regard to the liability of the seller for its vicarious agents and legal representatives.

11) Special conditions for the processing of goods according to specific customer specifications

11.1 If, according to the content of the contract, the seller is also responsible for processing the goods in accordance with certain specifications of the customer in addition to the delivery of goods, the customer must provide the seller with all content required for processing, such as texts, images or graphics in the file formats, formatting, image and file sizes specified by the seller and grant the seller the necessary rights of use. The customer is solely responsible for the procurement and acquisition of rights to this content. The customer declares and accepts responsibility for ensuring that he has the right to use the content provided to the seller. In particular, he shall ensure that no third-party rights are infringed, especially copyrights, trademark rights and personal rights.

11.2 The customer shall indemnify the seller against claims by third parties which they may assert against the seller in connection with an infringement of their rights through the contractual use of the customer's content by the seller. The customer shall also assume the necessary costs of legal defense, including all court and attorney's fees in the statutory amount. This does not apply if the customer is not responsible for the infringement. In the event of a claim by a third party, the customer is obliged to provide the seller immediately, truthfully and completely with all information necessary for the examination of the claims and a defense.

11.3 The seller reserves the right to refuse processing orders if the content provided by the customer for this purpose violates legal or official prohibitions or offends common decency. This applies in particular to the provision of anti-constitutional, racist, xenophobic, discriminatory, offensive, youth-endangering and/or violence-glorifying content.

12) Applicable law

12.1 The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to all legal relationships between the parties, to the exclusion of the laws on the international sale of goods. In the case of consumers, this choice of law shall only apply insofar as the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which the consumer has his habitual residence is not withdrawn.

12.2 Furthermore, with regard to the statutory right of withdrawal, this choice of law does not apply to consumers who do not belong to a member state of the European Union at the time the contract is concluded and whose sole place of residence and delivery address are outside the European Union at the time the contract is concluded.

13) Alternative dispute resolution

The seller is neither obliged nor willing to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.

If the customer pays by means of a payment method offered by PayPal that can be selected in the online ordering process, the seller already declares acceptance of the customer's offer at the time the customer clicks the button that completes the ordering process.

2.5 When an offer is submitted via the seller's online order form, the text of the contract is saved by the seller after the contract is concluded and sent to the customer in text form (e.g. email, fax or letter) after the customer's order has been sent.

2.6 Before submitting a binding order via the seller's online order form, the customer can recognize possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means of better recognizing input errors can be the browser's magnification function, which enlarges the display on the screen. The customer can correct his entries during the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until he clicks on the button that concludes the ordering process.

2.7 The German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.

2.8 Order processing and contact are generally carried out by e-mail and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the e-mail address provided by him for order processing is correct so that the e-mails sent by the seller can be received at this address. In particular, when using SPAM filters, the customer must ensure that all e-mails sent by the seller or by third parties commissioned by the seller to process the order can be delivered.

3) Right of withdrawal

3.1 Consumers are generally entitled to a right of withdrawal.

3.2 Further information on the right of withdrawal can be found in the seller's withdrawal policy.

4.2 For deliveries to countries outside the European Union, additional costs may be incurred in individual cases for which the seller is not responsible and which are to be borne by the customer. These include, for example, costs for the transfer of money by credit institutions (e.g. transfer fees, exchange rate fees) or import duties or taxes (e.g. customs duties). Such costs may also be incurred in relation to the transfer of funds if the delivery is not made to a country outside the European Union, but the customer makes the payment from a country outside the European Union.

4.3 The payment option(s) will be communicated to the customer in the seller's online store.

4.4 If a payment method offered via the "PayPal" payment service is selected, the payment shall be processed via PayPal, whereby PayPal may also use the services of third party payment service providers for this purpose. If the Seller also offers payment methods via PayPal for which it makes advance payments to the Customer (e.g. purchase on account or payment by installments), it assigns its payment claim in this respect to PayPal or to the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal and specifically named to the Customer. Before accepting the seller's declaration of assignment, PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal shall carry out a credit check using the transmitted customer data. The seller reserves the right to refuse the customer the selected payment method in the event of a negative check result. If the selected payment method is approved, the customer must pay the invoice amount within the agreed payment period or at the agreed payment intervals. In this case, the customer can only pay PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal with debt-discharging effect.

The payment transaction is then carried out immediately by Klarna and the customer's bank account is debited. The customer can find more information on the "Sofortüberweisung" payment method on the Internet at https://www.klarna.com/sofort/.

4.6 If the payment method "PayPal direct debit" is selected, PayPal will collect the invoice amount from the customer's bank account after a SEPA direct debit mandate has been issued, but not before the deadline for the pre-notification on behalf of the seller has expired. Pre-notification is any communication (e.g. invoice, policy, contract) to the customer that announces a debit by SEPA Direct Debit. If the direct debit is not honored due to insufficient funds in the account or due to the provision of incorrect bank details, or if the customer objects to the debit although he is not entitled to do so, the customer shall bear the fees incurred by the respective credit institution as a result of the chargeback if he is responsible for this.

5) Delivery and shipping conditions

5.1 If the seller offers to ship the goods, delivery shall be made within the delivery area specified by the seller to the delivery address specified by the customer, unless otherwise agreed. The delivery address specified in the seller's order processing is decisive for the processing of the transaction.

5.2 If the delivery of the goods fails for reasons for which the customer is responsible, the customer shall bear the reasonable costs incurred by the seller as a result. This does not apply with regard to the costs for the return shipment if the customer effectively exercises his right of withdrawal. If the customer effectively exercises his right of revocation, the provision in the seller's revocation instructions shall apply to the return costs.

5.3 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, carrier or other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment. If the customer is acting as a consumer, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall not pass until the goods are handed over to the customer or a person authorized to receive them. Notwithstanding the above, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer, even in the case of consumers, as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment, if the customer has commissioned the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment and the seller has not previously named this person or institution to the customer.

5.4 The Seller reserves the right to withdraw from the contract in the event of incorrect or improper self-delivery. This shall only apply in the event that the Seller is not responsible for the non-delivery and the Seller has concluded a specific covering transaction with the supplier with due care. The seller shall make every reasonable effort to procure the goods. In the event of non-availability or only partial availability of the goods, the customer will be informed immediately and the consideration will be refunded without delay.

5.5 Self-collection is not possible for logistical reasons.

5.6 Digital content is provided to the customer as follows

  • by direct access via the entrepreneur's website
  • by download
  • by e-mail

5.7 License keys are provided to the customer as follows

  • by e-mail
  • by post

6) Granting of rights of use for digital content

6.1 Unless otherwise stated in the content description in the seller's online store, the seller grants the customer the non-exclusive right to use the content provided for private and commercial purposes without restriction in terms of location or time.

6.2 The transfer of the content to third parties or the creation of copies for third parties outside the scope of these GTC is not permitted unless the seller has agreed to the transfer of the contractual license to the third party.

6.3 Insofar as the contract relates to the one-off provision of digital content, the granting of rights shall only become effective once the customer has paid the remuneration owed in full. The seller may provisionally permit the use of the contractual content even before this point in time. Such provisional permission does not constitute a transfer of rights.

7) Granting of rights of use for license keys

7.1 The license key provided entitles the customer to use the digital product shown in the respective product description of the seller to the extent described therein.

7.2 Insofar as the license key relates to the one-time provision of digital content, the granting of rights shall only become effective once the customer has paid the remuneration owed in full.

8) Retention of title

8.1 In relation to consumers, the seller retains ownership of the delivered goods until the purchase price owed has been paid in full.

8.2 In relation to entrepreneurs, the seller retains ownership of the delivered goods until all claims arising from an ongoing business relationship have been settled in full.

8.3 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the following shall also apply:

If the delivered goods are processed, the Seller shall be deemed to be the manufacturer and shall acquire ownership of the newly created goods. If the processing is carried out together with other materials, the seller acquires ownership in the ratio of the invoice value of his goods to that of the other materials. If, in the case of the combination or mixing of the seller's goods with an item belonging to the customer, the latter is to be regarded as the main item, co-ownership of the item shall be transferred to the seller in the ratio of the invoice value of the seller's goods to the invoice value or, in the absence of such, to the market value of the main item. In such cases, the customer shall be deemed to be the custodian.

The customer may neither pledge nor assign by way of security items subject to retention of title or reservation of rights. The customer is only entitled to resell the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business. The customer assigns to the seller in advance all resulting claims against third parties in the amount of the respective invoice value (including VAT). This assignment shall apply irrespective of whether the reserved goods have been resold without or after processing. The customer shall remain authorized to collect the claims even after the assignment. The seller's right to collect the claims himself remains unaffected. However, the seller shall not collect the claims as long as the customer meets his payment obligations to the seller, is not in default of payment and no application for the opening of insolvency proceedings has been filed.

The customer must immediately notify the seller of any access to the goods owned or co-owned by the seller or to the assigned claims. He must immediately transfer to the seller any amounts assigned to the seller and collected by him, insofar as the seller's claim is due.

If the value of the Seller's security interests exceeds the amount of the secured claims by more than 10%, the Seller shall release a corresponding proportion of the security interests at the Customer's request.

9) Liability for defects (warranty)

Unless otherwise stated in the following provisions, the provisions of statutory liability for defects shall apply. In deviation from this, the following applies to contracts for the delivery of goods:

9.1 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur,

  • the seller has the choice of the type of subsequent performance;
  • in the case of new goods, the limitation period for warranty rights is one year from delivery of the goods;
  • in the case of used goods, the warranty rights are excluded;
  • the limitation period shall not recommence if a replacement delivery is made as part of the liability for defects.

9.2 The above limitations of liability and shortening of the limitation period shall not apply

  • to claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses by the customer,
  • in the event that the seller has fraudulently concealed the defect,
  • for goods that have been used for a building in accordance with their normal use and have caused its defectiveness,
  • for any existing obligation of the seller to provide updates for digital products, in the case of contracts for the delivery of goods with digital elements.

9.3 In addition, for entrepreneurs, the statutory limitation periods for any existing statutory right of recourse remain unaffected.

9.4 If the customer acts as a merchant within the meaning of Section 1 of the German Commercial Code (HGB), he shall be subject to the commercial obligation to inspect and give notice of defects in accordance with Section 377 HGB. If the customer fails to comply with the notification obligations regulated therein, the goods shall be deemed approved.

9.5 If the customer acts as a consumer, he is requested to complain to the deliverer about delivered goods with obvious transport damage and to inform the seller of this. If the customer fails to do so, this shall have no effect on his statutory or contractual claims for defects.

10) Liability

The Seller shall be liable to the Customer for all contractual, quasi-contractual and statutory claims, including claims in tort, for damages and reimbursement of expenses as follows:

10.1 The Seller shall be liable without limitation for any legal reason

  • in the event of intent or gross negligence,
  • in the event of intentional or negligent injury to life, limb or health,
  • on the basis of a guarantee promise, unless otherwise regulated in this respect,
  • due to mandatory liability such as under the Product Liability Act.

10.2 If the Seller negligently breaches a material contractual obligation, liability shall be limited to the foreseeable damage typical of the contract, unless unlimited liability applies in accordance with the above clause. Essential contractual obligations are obligations which the contract imposes on the seller according to its content in order to achieve the purpose of the contract, the fulfillment of which makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on the observance of which the customer may regularly rely.

10.3 Any further liability of the seller is excluded.

10.4 The above liability provisions also apply with regard to the liability of the seller for its vicarious agents and legal representatives.

11) Special conditions for the processing of goods according to specific customer specifications

11.1 If, according to the content of the contract, the seller is also responsible for processing the goods in accordance with certain specifications of the customer in addition to the delivery of goods, the customer must provide the seller with all content required for processing, such as texts, images or graphics in the file formats, formatting, image and file sizes specified by the seller and grant the seller the necessary rights of use. The customer is solely responsible for the procurement and acquisition of rights to this content. The customer declares and assumes responsibility that he has the right to use the content provided to the seller. In particular, he shall ensure that no third-party rights are infringed, especially copyrights, trademark rights and personal rights.

11.2 The customer shall indemnify the seller against claims by third parties which they may assert against the seller in connection with an infringement of their rights through the contractual use of the customer's content by the seller. The customer shall also assume the necessary costs of legal defense, including all court and attorney's fees in the statutory amount. This does not apply if the customer is not responsible for the infringement. In the event of a claim by a third party, the customer is obliged to provide the seller immediately, truthfully and completely with all information necessary for the examination of the claims and a defense.

11.3 The seller reserves the right to refuse processing orders if the content provided by the customer for this purpose violates legal or official prohibitions or offends common decency. This applies in particular to the provision of anti-constitutional, racist, xenophobic, discriminatory, offensive, youth-endangering and/or violence-glorifying content.

12) Applicable law

12.1 The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to all legal relationships between the parties to the exclusion of the laws on the international purchase of movable goods. In the case of consumers, this choice of law shall only apply insofar as the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which the consumer has his habitual residence is not withdrawn.

12.2 Furthermore, this choice of law with regard to the statutory right of withdrawal does not apply to consumers who do not belong to a member state of the European Union at the time the contract is concluded and whose sole place of residence and delivery address are outside the European Union at the time the contract is concluded.

13) Alternative dispute resolution

The seller is neither obliged nor willing to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.
