1) Scope of Application

1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter "GTC") of Status 6®, owner Torsten Lippke, available at www.statussechs.de (hereinafter "Seller"), apply to all contracts for the delivery of goods that a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter "Customer") concludes with the Seller regarding the goods displayed by the Seller in his online shop. The inclusion of the Customer's own terms and conditions is hereby objected to, unless otherwise agreed.

1.2 These GTC apply mutatis mutandis to contracts for the delivery of vouchers, unless otherwise stipulated.

1.3 These GTC apply mutatis mutandis to contracts for the provision of digital content, unless otherwise stipulated. Digital content within the meaning of these GTC are data created and provided in digital form.

1.4 A consumer within the meaning of these GTC is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither commercial nor their independent professional activity.

1.5 An entrepreneur within the meaning of these GTC is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when entering into 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 shop do not constitute binding offers on the part of the Seller, but serve for the submission of 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 shop. 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 concerning 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, via the online contact form or by 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, 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 their order has been placed.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract is concluded at the time when one of the aforementioned alternatives first occurs. The period for acceptance of the offer begins on the day after the Customer sends the offer and ends with the expiry 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 processing is handled by 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 User Agreement, viewable at https://www.paypal.com/de/legalhub/paypal/useragreement-full or – if the Customer does not have a PayPal account – subject to the terms and conditions for payments without a PayPal account, viewable at https://www.paypal.com/de/legalhub/paypal/privacywax-full. If the Customer pays using a PayPal payment method selectable during the online ordering process, the Seller hereby declares acceptance of the Customer's offer at the time the Customer clicks the button that concludes the ordering process.

2.5 When an offer is made via the Seller's online order form, the contract text is stored by the Seller after the contract is concluded and sent to the Customer in text form (e.g. e-mail, fax or letter) after the Customer has submitted their order. The contract text is not made accessible beyond this by the Seller. If the Customer has set up a user account in the Seller's online shop before submitting their order, the order data will be archived on the Seller's website and can be accessed by the Customer free of charge via their password-protected user account by providing the corresponding login data.

2.6 Before submitting the binding order via the Seller's online order form, the Customer can identify possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means for better recognition of input errors can be the browser's magnification function, which enlarges the display on the screen. The Customer can correct their entries within the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until they click 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 usually take place via e-mail and automated order processing. The Customer must ensure that the e-mail address provided by them for order processing is correct, so that 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 with order processing can be delivered.

3) Right of Withdrawal

3.1 Consumers generally have a right of withdrawal.

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

4) Prices and Payment Terms

4.1 Unless otherwise stated in the Seller's product description, the prices quoted are total prices that include the statutory value added tax. Any additional delivery and shipping costs will be specified separately in the respective product description.

4.2 The payment option(s) will be communicated to the Customer in the Seller's online shop.

4.3 If prepayment by bank transfer has been agreed, payment is due immediately after conclusion of the contract, unless the parties have agreed on a later due date.

4.4 If a payment method offered via the payment service "Shopify Payments" is selected, payment processing is handled by the payment service provider Stripe Payments Europe Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland (hereinafter "Stripe"). The individual payment methods offered via Shopify Payments will be communicated to the Customer in the Seller's online shop. For payment processing, Stripe may use additional payment services for which special payment conditions may apply, which the Customer may be informed of separately if applicable. Further information on "Shopify Payments" is available on the Internet at https://www.shopify.com/legal/terms-payments-de.

4.5 If a payment method offered via the payment service "Stripe" is selected, payment processing is handled by the payment service provider Stripe Payments Europe Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland (hereinafter "Stripe"). The individual payment methods offered via Stripe will be communicated to the Customer in the Seller's online shop. For payment processing, Stripe may use additional payment services for which special payment conditions may apply, which the Customer may be informed of separately if applicable. Further information on Stripe is available on the Internet at https://stripe.com/de.

5) Delivery and Shipping Conditions

5.1 If the Seller offers shipping of goods, delivery will 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 transaction.

5.2 If 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 to the costs for outward shipment if the Customer effectively exercises their right of withdrawal. For return costs, the provision made in the Seller's cancellation policy applies if the Customer effectively exercises their right of withdrawal.

5.3 If the Customer acts as an entrepreneur, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold goods passes to the Customer as soon as the Seller has delivered the item to the forwarder, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment. If the Customer acts as a consumer, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold goods generally only passes with the handover of the goods to the Customer or a person authorised to receive them. Deviating from this, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold goods already passes to the Customer, even for consumers, as soon as the Seller has delivered the item to the forwarder, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment, if the Customer has commissioned the forwarder, 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 only applies if the non-delivery is not attributable to the Seller and the Seller has concluded a specific hedging transaction with the supplier with due care. The Seller will make all reasonable efforts 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 immediately.

5.5 If the Seller offers the goods for collection, the Customer can collect the ordered goods within the business hours specified by the Seller at the address specified by the Seller. In this case, no shipping costs will be charged.

5.6 Vouchers will be provided to the Customer as follows:

  • by e-mail

5.7 Digital content will be provided to the Customer as follows:

  • by e-mail

6) Granting of Usage Rights for Digital Content

6.1 Unless otherwise stated in the content description in the Seller's online shop, the Seller grants the Customer a non-exclusive, spatially and temporally unlimited right to use the content exclusively for private purposes.

6.2 Passing on the content to third parties or creating copies for third parties outside the scope of these GTC is not permitted, unless the Seller has agreed to a transfer of the license that is the subject of the contract to the third party.

6.3 Insofar as the contract relates to the one-time provision of digital content, the grant of rights only becomes effective when the Customer has paid the remuneration owed in full. The Seller may provisionally permit use of the contractual content even before this time. Such provisional permission does not result in a transfer of rights.

7) Retention of Title

If the Seller performs in advance, he reserves ownership of the delivered goods until full payment of the owed purchase price.

8) Liability for Defects (Warranty)

Unless otherwise stipulated in the following provisions, the provisions of statutory liability for defects apply. Deviating from this, the following applies to contracts for the delivery of goods:

8.1 If the Customer acts as an entrepreneur,

  • the Seller has the choice of the type of supplementary performance;
  • for new goods, the limitation period for defect rights is one year from delivery of the goods;
  • for used goods, defect rights are excluded;
  • the limitation period does not recommence if a replacement delivery is made within the scope of liability for defects.

8.2 The limitations of liability and reductions of periods regulated above do not apply

  • for 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 usual purpose and have caused its defectiveness,
  • for any existing obligation of the Seller to provide updates for digital products, in contracts for the supply of goods with digital elements.

8.3 Furthermore, for entrepreneurs, the statutory limitation periods for any existing statutory right of recourse remain unaffected.

8.4 If the Customer acts as a merchant within the meaning of § 1 HGB, they are subject to the commercial duty to inspect and give notice of defects in accordance with § 377 HGB. If the Customer fails to comply with the notification obligations regulated therein, the goods shall be deemed approved.

8.5 If the Customer acts as a consumer, they are asked to complain about delivered goods with obvious transport damage to the deliverer and to inform the Seller thereof. Failure to do so has no effect on their statutory or contractual claims for defects.

9) Liability

The Seller is liable to the Customer for all contractual, quasi-contractual and statutory, also tortious, claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses as follows:

9.1 The Seller is liable without limitation on any legal ground

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

9.2 If the Seller negligently violates an essential contractual obligation, liability is limited to the contract-typical, foreseeable damage, unless unlimited liability exists according to the preceding paragraph. Essential contractual obligations are obligations that the contract imposes on the Seller according to its content 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 whose observance the Customer can regularly rely.

9.3 Otherwise, the Seller's liability is excluded.

9.4 The preceding liability regulations also apply with regard to the Seller's liability for his vicarious agents and legal representatives.

10) Special Conditions for Processing Goods According to Specific Customer Requirements

10.1 If, according to the content of the contract, the Seller owes, in addition to the delivery of goods, also the processing of the goods according to specific customer requirements, 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 him the necessary usage rights for this. The Customer is solely responsible for procuring and acquiring the rights to this content. The Customer declares and assumes responsibility for having the right to use the content provided to the Seller. In particular, he ensures that no third-party rights are violated as a result, in particular copyrights, trademark rights and personal rights.

10.2 The Customer indemnifies the Seller against claims by third parties that they may assert against the Seller in connection with an infringement of their rights by the contractual use of the Customer's content by the Seller. In this context, the Customer also bears the necessary costs of legal defense, including all court and attorney's fees at the statutory rate. This does not apply if the infringement of rights is not attributable to the Customer. 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 in the event of a claim by third parties.

10.3 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 public morality. This applies in particular to the provision of unconstitutional, racist, xenophobic, discriminatory, offensive, harmful to minors and/or violence-glorifying content.

11) Redemption of Promotional Vouchers

11.10 The Promotional Voucher is intended only for use by the person named on it. A transfer of the Promotional Voucher to third parties is excluded. The Seller is entitled, but not obliged, to check the material eligibility of the respective voucher holder.

12) Redemption of Gift Vouchers

12.1 Vouchers that can be purchased through the Seller's online shop (hereinafter "Gift Vouchers") can only be redeemed in the Seller's online shop, unless otherwise stated on the voucher.

12.2 Gift Vouchers and remaining credit of Gift Vouchers can be redeemed until the end of the third year after the year of voucher purchase. Remaining credit will be credited to the customer until the expiry date.

13) Applicable Law

All legal relationships between the parties shall be governed by the law of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the laws on the international sale of movable goods. For consumers, this choice of law applies only insofar as the protection granted by mandatory provisions of the law of the state in which the consumer has their habitual residence is not withdrawn.
