Article 3 - Applicability
- These general terms and conditions apply to every offer made from the company and to every distance contract concluded between the company and the consumer.
- Before the distance contract is concluded, the text of these terms and conditions is to be made available to the consumer. If this is not reasonably possible, then before the distance contract is concluded, the company shall indicate how the general terms and conditions can be accessed at the company and that the terms and conditions will be sent free of charge to the consumer as soon as possible upon request.
- If the distance contract is concluded electronically, then contrary to the previous paragraph and before the distance contract is concluded, the text of these general terms and conditions may be made available to the consumer electronically in such a way that the consumer is able to store it easily on a durable medium. If this is not reasonably possible, then before the distance contract is concluded, it shall be indicated where the general terms and conditions can be accessed electronically and that the terms and conditions will be sent free of charge to the consumer electronically or otherwise upon request.
- In the event that, in addition to these general terms and conditions, specific product or service conditions also apply, the second and third paragraphs equally apply and in the event of an inconsistency in the conditions, the consumer may invoke the applicable provision that is most beneficial to him/her.
Article 4 - The offer
- If an offer is limited in duration or is subject to certain conditions, this is to be explicitly stated in the offer description.
- The offer includes a complete and accurate description of the products, digital content and/or services provided. The description includes sufficient detail as to enable the consumer to make a proper assessment of the offer. If the company uses any images, they are to serve as a true representation of the products, services and/or digital content offered. Obvious oversights or errors in the offer are not binding for the company.
- Every offer contains information that clearly depicts the consumer rights and obligations that are associated with acceptance of the offer.
Article 5 - The agreement
- The agreement is deemed concluded, subject to the provisions of paragraph 4, at the moment the consumer accepts the offer and meets the conditions set out.
- If the consumer has accepted the offer electronically, the company is to provide immediate electronic confirmation of receipt of the consumer's acceptance of the offer. As long as the company has not confirmed receipt of this acceptance, the consumer may terminate the contract.
- If the agreement is concluded electronically, the company is to take appropriate technical and organizational measures to secure the electronic transfer of the data and is to ensure a secure web environment. If the consumer is able to pay electronically, the company is to take the appropriate security measures.
- Within legal bounds, the company may seek information on whether the consumer is able to meet his/her payment obligations, as well as seek any facts and factors that are important for concluding a responsible distance contract. If, based on this investigation, the company has good reason not to enter into the agreement, the company is entitled to refuse an order or request, or to attach special conditions to its implementation.
- The company is to send the following information to the consumer at the latest upon delivery of the product, service or digital content, in writing or in such a way that the consumer may store the information in an accessible manner on a durable medium:
a. the company's visiting address where the consumer may go with complaints;

f. if the consumer is entitled to the right of withdrawal, the sample withdrawal form. - In the case of a continuing performance contract, the provision in the previous paragraph applies only to the first delivery.
Article 6 - Right of withdrawal
Upon delivery of products
- The consumer may terminate an agreement regarding the purchase of a product during the cooling-off period of 14 days without stating a reason. The company may ask the consumer about the reason for withdrawal, but may not require that the consumer state the reason(s).
- The cooling-off period referred to in paragraph 1 begins on the day after the consumer, or a third party previously designated by the consumer who is not the carrier, has received the product, or:
a. if the consumer has ordered several products in the same order: the day on which the consumer, or a third party designated by the consumer, has received the last product. Provided that the company has clearly informed the consumer prior to the ordering process, the company may refuse an order for several products with different delivery times.
b. if the delivery of a product consists of different shipments or parts: the day on which the consumer, or a third party designated by the consumer, has received the last shipment or the last part;
c. for contracts concerning regular delivery of products over a certain period: the day on which the consumer, or a third party designated by the consumer, has received the first product.
Upon delivery of services and digital content that is not supplied on a material medium:
- A consumer has the right to dissolve a contract, without giving reasons, for the supply of digital content that is not supplied on a material medium during a period of at least fourteen days. The trader is allowed to ask a consumer for the reason of this dissolution, but the consumer is under no obligation to state his/her reason(s).
- The period stipulated in para. 1 commences on the day after the contract was concluded.
Extended withdrawal period for products, services and digital content that is not supplied on a material medium in the event a consumer was not informed about the right of withdrawal:
- If the trader did not provide the consumer with the statutorily obligatory information about the right of withdrawal or if the model form was not provided, the withdrawal period ends twelve months after the end of the originally stipulated withdrawal period based on the previous paragraphs of this article.
- If the trader provided the consumer with the information referred to in the previous paragraph within twelve months of the commencing date of the original withdrawal period, the withdrawal period shall end 14 days after the day on which the consumer received the information.
Article 7 - Consumer obligations during the cooling-off period
- During the cooling-off period, the consumer is to handle the product and packaging with care. The consumer shall only unpack or use the product to the extent necessary in order to determine the nature, characteristics and operation of the product. The basic principle here is that the consumer may only handle and inspect the product as would be allowed in a store.
- The consumer is only liable for a reduction in value of the product as a result of the product being handled in such a way that goes beyond what is permissible in paragraph 1.
- The consumer is not liable for a reduction in value of the product if the company has not provided him/her with all legally required information concerning the right of withdrawal before or at the conclusion of the agreement.
Article 8 - Consumer exercise of the right of withdrawal and related costs
- If the consumer wishes to make use of the right of withdrawal, the consumer must report this to the company within the cooling-off period using the sample withdrawal form or in another unambiguous manner.
- As soon as possible, and within 14 days starting from the day after the notification referred to in paragraph 1 has been given, the consumer shall return the product or submit it to (an agent of) the company. This is not necessary if the company has offered to collect the product itself. In any case, the consumer has observed the period of return if he/she returns the product before the cooling-off period has expired.
- The consumer returns the product with all accessories supplied, if reasonably possible in its original condition and packaging, and in accordance with the reasonable and clear instructions provided by the company.
- The risk and burden of proof for the correct and timely exercise of the right of withdrawal lies with the consumer.
- The consumer bears all direct costs of returning the product. If the company has not given notification that the consumer must bear these costs or if the company has indicated that the costs will be borne by the company, then the consumer is not responsible for bearing the costs for returning the product.
- If the consumer withdraws from the agreement after having first explicitly requested that a service be provided or that gas, water or electricity be supplied that is not made ready for sale in a limited volume or quantity during the cooling-off period, then the consumer owes the company an amount that is equal to that part of the commitment that the company has fulfilled at the time of withdrawal, as compared to full compliance with the obligation.
- The consumer does not bear any costs for the performance of services or the supply of water, gas or electricity that are not made ready for sale in a limited volume or quantity, or for the supply of district heating, if:
a. the company has not provided the consumer with the legally required information concerning the right of withdrawal, the reimbursement of costs or the sample withdrawal form, or;
b. the consumer did not explicitly request the service or supply of gas, water, electricity or district heating to be started during the cooling-off period. - The consumer does not bear any costs for the full or partial delivery of digital content not supplied on a physical medium if:
a. prior to delivery, the consumer has not explicitly agreed to commence compliance with the agreement before the end of the cooling-off period;
b. the consumer has not acknowledged that he/she has lost his/her right of withdrawal when granting permissions; or
c. the company has failed to confirm this statement from the consumer. - If the consumer exercises his right of withdrawal, all additional agreements will be legally rescinded.
Article 9 - Company obligations in a case of withdrawal
- If the company makes it possible for the consumer to withdraw from the agreement electronically, the company will immediately send a confirmation of receipt after receiving the notification.
- The company is to reimburse all payments made by the consumer, including any delivery costs charged by the company for the returned product, without delay and within 14 days following the day on which the consumer gave notification of the withdrawal. Unless the company offers to collect the product itself, the company may wait to reimburse the consumer until it has received the product or until the consumer has demonstrated that he/she has sent back the product, whichever occurs earlier.
- The company is to use the same payment method that the consumer has used for reimbursement, unless the consumer agrees to a different method. The consumer is not to be charged for the reimbursement.
- If the consumer has opted for a more expensive method of delivery than the cheapest standard delivery available, the company is not obliged to reimburse the additional costs for the more expensive method.
Article 10 - Exclusion of the right of withdrawal
