1) Scope of application
1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "GTC") of the company Ziza ApS (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 A consumer within the meaning of these GTC is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that can predominantly be attributed neither to their commercial nor their independent professional activity.
1.3 An entrepreneur within the meaning of these GTC is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity that acts in the exercise of its commercial or independent professional activity when concluding a legal transaction.
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.
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 in this respect, or by requesting payment from the customer after placing 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 order process, the seller already declares acceptance of the customer's offer at the time the customer clicks the button that completes the order process.
2.5 When submitting an offer via the seller's online order form, the contract text is stored by the seller after the conclusion of the contract and transmitted to the customer in text form (e.g. e-mail, 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 is archived on the seller's website and can be accessed by the customer free of charge via his password-protected user account by entering the corresponding login data.
2.6 Before binding submission of the 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 completes the ordering process.
2.7 The German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.
2.8 Order processing and contact are usually 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 The payment option(s) will be communicated to the customer in the seller's online store.
4.3 If the payment method "SOFORT" is selected, payment is processed via the payment service provider SOFORT GmbH, Theresienhöhe 12, 80339 Munich (hereinafter referred to as "SOFORT"). In order to be able to pay the invoice amount via "SOFORT", the customer must have an online banking account activated for participation in "SOFORT", legitimize himself accordingly during the payment process and confirm the payment instruction to "SOFORT". The payment transaction is then immediately carried out by "SOFORT" and the customer's bank account is debited. The customer can find more detailed information on the "SOFORT" payment method on the Internet at https://www.klarna.com/sofort/.
4.4 If a payment method offered via the "Shopify Payments" payment service is selected, payment processing is carried out 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 are communicated to the customer in the seller's online store. Stripe may use other payment services to process payments, for which special payment terms may apply, to which the customer may be informed separately. Further information on "Shopify Payments" can be found on the Internet at https://www.shopify.com/legal/terms-payments-de.
4.5 If the payment method credit card via Stripe is selected, the invoice amount is due immediately upon conclusion of the contract. Payment is processed by the payment service provider Stripe Payments Europe Ltd, 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland (hereinafter: "Stripe"). Stripe reserves the right to carry out a credit check and to reject this payment method if the credit check is negative.
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 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 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.
6) Retention of title
If the seller makes advance payment, he shall retain title to the delivered goods until the purchase price owed has been paid in full.
7) 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:
7.1 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 defects is one year from delivery of the goods; in the case of used goods, the rights and claims due to defects are excluded;
the limitation period does not begin again if a replacement delivery is made within the scope of liability for defects.
7.2 The above limitations of liability and shortening of time limits do 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.
7.3 In addition, for entrepreneurs, the statutory limitation periods for any existing statutory right of recourse shall remain unaffected.
7.4 If the customer acts as a merchant within the meaning of § 1 HGB, he is subject to the commercial obligation 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.
7.5 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.
8) 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:
8.1 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, on the basis of mandatory liability such as under the Product Liability Act.
8.2 If the Seller negligently breaches a material contractual obligation, liability shall be limited to the foreseeable damage typical for the contract, unless liability is unlimited in accordance with the above clause. Material 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.
8.3 Otherwise, liability of the seller is excluded.
8.4 The above liability provisions also apply with regard to the liability of the seller for its vicarious agents and legal representatives.
9) Redemption of promotional vouchers
9.1 Vouchers that are issued free of charge by the seller as part of promotions with a specific period of validity and that cannot be purchased by the customer (hereinafter "promotional vouchers") can only be redeemed in the seller's online store and only during the specified period.
9.2 Promotional vouchers can only be redeemed by consumers.
9.3 Individual products may be excluded from the voucher promotion if a corresponding restriction results from the content of the promotional voucher.
9.4 Promotional vouchers can only be redeemed before the order process is completed. Subsequent offsetting is not possible.
9.5 Only one promotional voucher can be redeemed per order.
9.6 The value of the goods must be at least equal to the amount of the promotional voucher. Any remaining credit will not be refunded by the seller.
9.7 If the value of the promotional voucher is not sufficient to cover the order, one of the other payment methods offered by the seller can be selected to settle the difference.
9.8 The credit balance of a promotional voucher is neither paid out in cash nor does it bear interest.
9.9 The promotional voucher will not be refunded if the customer returns the goods paid for in full or in part with the promotional voucher within the scope of his statutory right of withdrawal.
9.10 The promotional voucher is transferable. The seller can make payment with discharging effect to the respective holder who redeems the promotional voucher in the seller's online store. This does not apply if the seller has knowledge or grossly negligent ignorance of the non-authorization, legal incapacity or lack of power of representation of the respective holder.
10) Applicable law
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 granted by mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which the consumer has his habitual residence is not withdrawn.
11) Place of jurisdiction
If the customer acts as a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law with its registered office in the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract shall be the registered office of the seller. If the customer is domiciled outside the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany, the seller's place of business shall be the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract if the contract or claims arising from the contract can be attributed to the customer's professional or commercial activity. In the above cases, however, the seller is in any case entitled to appeal to the court at the customer's place of business.
12) Alternative dispute resolution
12.1 The EU Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution on the Internet at the following link: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr
This platform serves as a contact point for the out-of-court settlement of disputes arising from online purchase or service contracts in which a consumer is involved.
12.2 The seller is not obliged to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board, but is prepared to do so.
