1) Scope of Application

1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "GTC") of DHS24 UG (haftungsbeschränkt) (hereinafter referred to as the "Seller") apply to all contracts concluded for the delivery of goods between a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter referred to as the "Customer") and the Seller with regard to the goods presented in the Seller's online shop. The inclusion of the Customer's own terms and conditions is hereby objected to unless otherwise agreed.

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

1.3 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 trade, business, or profession.


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 to enable the Customer to submit a binding offer.

2.2 The Customer can submit the offer using the online order form integrated into the Seller's online shop. After placing the selected goods in the virtual shopping cart and completing the electronic ordering process, the Customer submits a legally binding contract offer regarding the goods in the shopping cart by clicking the button concluding the ordering process. The Customer may also submit the offer to the Seller by email, contact form, post, or phone.

2.3 The Seller may 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 email), with receipt by the Customer being decisive;
  • By delivering the ordered goods to the Customer, with receipt by the Customer being decisive; or
  • By requesting payment from the Customer after they have placed their order.

If multiple of the above alternatives apply, the contract is concluded when one of these alternatives first occurs. The acceptance period begins on the day after the Customer sends their offer and ends at the end of the fifth day following the submission. If the Seller does not accept the Customer's offer within this period, it is deemed a rejection, and the Customer is no longer bound by their declaration of intent.

2.4 If the Customer selects a PayPal payment method, the payment will be processed through PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A. according to PayPal's terms, viewable at PayPal Terms. When paying via PayPal, the Seller declares acceptance of the Customer's offer at the moment the Customer clicks the button concluding the order.

2.5 The contract text will be stored by the Seller after the contract is concluded and sent to the Customer in text form (e.g., email, fax, or letter). If the Customer has set up a user account before placing their order, the order data will be archived on the Seller's website and can be accessed by the Customer via their password-protected account.

2.6 Before the binding submission of the order, the Customer can identify and correct input errors using standard keyboard and mouse functions until they click the button completing the order process.

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

2.8 Order processing and contact generally take place via email and automated order processing. The Customer must ensure that the email address provided for order processing is accurate and that emails sent by the Seller can be received.


3) Right of Withdrawal

3.1 Consumers generally have a statutory right of withdrawal.

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


4) Prices and Payment Terms

4.1 Unless otherwise stated in the Seller's product description, the prices indicated are total prices, including VAT. Additional delivery and shipping costs, if applicable, are specified separately in the respective product description.

4.2 Payment options are communicated to the Customer in the Seller's online shop.

4.3 For prepayment via bank transfer, payment is due immediately after contract conclusion unless a later due date has been agreed.

4.4 When selecting a payment method offered via "PayPal," the payment processing occurs through PayPal, which may involve third-party services. In some cases, the Seller assigns the claim to PayPal, with PayPal performing a credit check before accepting the assignment.


5) Delivery and Shipping Conditions

5.1 If the Seller offers shipping, delivery occurs within the specified delivery area to the address provided by the Customer, unless otherwise agreed.

5.2 For items delivered by freight forwarding, delivery is "curbside," unless otherwise specified in the Seller's shipping information.

5.3 If delivery fails for reasons attributable to the Customer, the Customer bears the additional costs incurred.

6) Retention of Title

If the Seller delivers in advance, they retain ownership of the delivered goods until the purchase price has been paid in full.


7) Liability for Defects (Warranty)

Unless otherwise stated below, the statutory liability for defects applies. For contracts involving the delivery of goods:

7.1 If the Customer acts as an entrepreneur:

  • The Seller has the choice of the type of supplementary performance;
  • The limitation period for defect claims for new goods is one year from delivery of the goods;
  • For used goods, rights and claims due to defects are excluded;
  • The limitation period does not start anew if replacement delivery occurs under the warranty.

7.2 The above-mentioned restrictions and shortened periods do not apply:

  • To claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses by the Customer;
  • If the Seller fraudulently concealed the defect;
  • For goods used in construction in accordance with their normal use that caused its defectiveness;
  • For any obligation by the Seller to provide updates for digital elements in goods with digital elements.

7.3 For entrepreneurs, statutory limitation periods for any recourse claims remain unaffected.

7.4 If the Customer acts as a merchant under § 1 HGB, they are subject to the obligation to inspect and report defects according to § 377 HGB. If the Customer fails to comply, the goods are deemed approved.

7.5 If the Customer acts as a consumer, they are requested to report obvious transport damages to the delivery agent and inform the Seller. Failure to do so does not affect statutory or contractual warranty claims.


8) Liability

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

8.1 The Seller is liable without limitation:

  • For intent or gross negligence;
  • For injury to life, body, or health caused by intent or negligence;
  • Under guarantee promises, unless otherwise stated;
  • For mandatory liability, such as under the Product Liability Act.

8.4 The above liability provisions also apply to the Seller’s agents and legal representatives.


9) Special Conditions for Processing Goods According to Customer Specifications

The Customer bears full responsibility for acquiring usage rights for the provided content.

9.2 The Customer indemnifies the Seller against claims from third parties alleging rights violations from the provided content. This includes defense costs unless the Customer is not responsible for the infringement.

10) Applicable Law

All legal relationships between the parties are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding international sales law. For consumers, this choice of law applies only if mandatory consumer protection laws in the Customer’s country of residence are not overridden.


11) Place of Jurisdiction

If the Customer is a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a public-law special fund based in Germany, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for disputes is the Seller's registered office. For Customers outside Germany whose contract relates to their trade or profession, the Seller's registered office is the exclusive place of jurisdiction. However, the Seller may also bring claims at the Customer’s place of jurisdiction.


12) Alternative Dispute Resolution
