I. General Terms and Conditions
Basic provisions
(1) The following business terms are applicable to all the contracts, which you conclude with us as a supplier (August Handel GmbH) via the www.trommelberg.com website. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of your own terms and conditions, if any, is hereby rejected.
(2) A consumer within the meaning of the following provisions is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly outside their trade, business or profession. An entrepreneur is any natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who or which, when entering into a legal transaction, acts in exercise of his or its independent professional or commercial activity.
Conclusion of the contract
(1) The object of the contract is the sale of goods and/or the provision of repair services.
(2) By placing the respective product on our website, we make you a binding offer to conclude a contract under the conditions specified in the item description.
(3) The contract is concluded via the online shopping basket system as follows:
- The goods and/or repair services intended for purchase are stored in the „shopping basket“. You can call up the „shopping basket“ via the corresponding button in the navigation bar and make changes there at any time.
- After accessing the „Checkout“ page and entering your personal data as well as the payment and shipping conditions, all order data will be displayed again on the order overview page.
- If you use an instant payment system (e.g. PayPal / PayPal Express, Amazon-Payments, Sofort) as a payment method, you will either be directed to the order overview page in our online shop or you will first be redirected to the website of the provider of the instant payment system.
- If you are redirected to the respective instant payment system, make the appropriate selection or enter your data there. You will then be redirected back to the order overview page in our online shop.
- Before submitting the order, you have the option of checking all details again, changing them (also via the „back“ function of the Internet browser) or cancelling the purchase.
- By sending the order via the „Buy“ button, you declare legally binding acceptance of the offer, whereby the contract is concluded.
(4) Your enquiry regarding the preparation of a quotation is non-binding for you. We will send you a binding offer in text form (e.g. by e-mail), which you can accept within 5 days.
(5) The processing of the order and transmission of all information required in connection with the conclusion of the contract is partially automated by e-mail. You must therefore ensure that the e-mail address you have provided to us is correct, that the receipt of e-mails is technically ensured and, in particular, that it is not prevented by SPAM filters.
Service provision for repairs
(1) Insofar as repair services are the subject of the contract, we owe the repair work resulting from the service description. We shall carry out this work to the best of our knowledge and belief, either personally or through third parties.
(2) You are obliged to co-operate, in particular you must describe the existing defect in the device as comprehensively as possible and make the defective device available.
(3) You bear the costs for sending the defective device to us.
Right of retention, retention of title
(1) You may only exercise a right of retention insofar as it concerns claims arising from the same contractual relationship.
(2) The goods remain our property until the purchase price has been paid in full.
Guarantee
(1) The statutory warranty rights apply.
(2) As a consumer, you are requested to check the goods immediately upon delivery for completeness, obvious defects and transport damage and to notify us and the carrier of any complaints as soon as possible. If you fail to do so, this will have no effect on your statutory warranty claims.
Choice of law, place of fulfilment, place of jurisdiction
(1) German law shall apply. 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 state of the consumer's habitual residence is not thereby withdrawn (principle of favourability).
(2) The place of fulfilment for all services arising from the business relationships existing with us and the place of jurisdiction is our registered office if you are not a consumer but a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law. The same applies if you do not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany or the EU or if your place of residence or habitual abode is not known at the time the action is filed. This does not affect the right to bring an action before a court at another statutory place of jurisdiction.
(3) The provisions of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall expressly not apply.
