§ 9 Warranty

9.1 If you are a consumer and place an order with us for a purpose that cannot be attributed to your commercial or professional activity, the warranty is based on the statutory provisions.

9.2 If you place your order with us as an entrepreneur, the following applies:

9.2.1 Delivered goods are to be inspected by the customer immediately after delivery, insofar as this is feasible in the ordinary course of business. If a defect becomes apparent, we must be notified immediately. If the customer fails to do so, the goods are deemed to have been approved, unless there is a defect that was not apparent during the inspection. If such a defect appears later, the notification must be made immediately after discovery, otherwise the goods are deemed to be approved, even in view of this defect. § 377 HGB remains unaffected. The customer is not relieved of his obligation to examine, even in the event of recourse by the entrepreneur according to Section 478 of the German Civil Code. If, in such cases, he does not immediately report the defect asserted by his customer, the goods shall be deemed to have been approved, even with regard to this defect.

9.2.2 If there is a defect, we are entitled to determine the type of supplementary performance, taking into account the type of defect and the legitimate interests of the customer. Subsequent performance is deemed to have failed in these contracts after the third unsuccessful attempt. This number does not apply in the case of recourse according to § 478 BGB.

9.2.3 In the event of supplementary performance in the event of defects, we are only obliged to bear the expenses required for this, in particular transport, travel, labor and material costs, if these do not increase as a result of the item being transported to a different location than the headquarters or the commercial establishment of the customer to which the delivery was made. This number does not apply in the case of recourse according to § 478 BGB.

9.2.4 The customer's claims for defects, including claims for damages, expire in one year. This does not apply in the case of recourse according to § 478 BGB, this also does not apply in the cases of §§ 438 Para. 1 No. 2 BGB and § 634a Para. 1 No. 2 BGB. This also does not apply to claims for damages due to injury to life, limb or health or due to a grossly negligent or intentional breach of duty by us or our vicarious agents.

 

§ 10 Liability for damages and reimbursement of expenses

10.1 If you are a consumer and place an order with us for a purpose that cannot be attributed to your commercial or professional activity, we are liable for damages in accordance with the statutory provisions.

10.2 If you place your order with us as an entrepreneur, the following applies in the event of our contractual liability for damages in accordance with Sections 10.2 to 10.8:

10.2.1 If the claims are based on an intentional breach of duty by us, our representatives or our vicarious agents, we are liable for damages in accordance with the statutory provisions. If the claims are based on a grossly negligent breach of duty by us or our representatives or vicarious agents, liability is limited to the foreseeable, typically occurring damage.

10.2.2 If we or our representatives or vicarious agents have culpably violated an obligation, the fulfillment of which is essential for the proper execution of the contract, the violation of which jeopardizes the achievement of the purpose of the contract and on compliance with which the customer regularly relies - and no case of liability according to the statutory provisions - liability is limited to foreseeable, typically occurring damage.

10.2.3 Unless otherwise specified in clauses 10.2.1 and 10.2.2, our liability for damages is excluded. The same also applies insofar as recourse claims are asserted against us as the supplier in accordance with Section 478 of the German Civil Code.

10.3 The exclusions and limitations of liability under Section 10.2 also apply to other claims, in particular tortious claims or claims for reimbursement of wasted expenses instead of performance.

10.4 The exclusions and limitations of liability under Section 10.2 do not apply to any existing claims in accordance with Sections 1, 4 of the Product Liability Act or due to culpable injury to life, limb or health. They also do not apply if we have assumed a guarantee for the quality of our goods or a service success or a procurement risk and the guarantee case has occurred or the procurement risk has materialized.

10.5 We are only liable for assuming a procurement risk if we have expressly accepted the procurement risk in writing.

10.6 If the limitation of liability according to Section 10.2 does not apply to claims arising from producer liability according to § 823 BGB, our liability is limited to the compensation paid by the insurance company. If this does not occur or does not occur in full, we are liable up to the amount of the coverage. This clause does not apply in the event of culpable injury to life, limb or health.

10.7 Insofar as our liability is excluded or limited, this also applies to the personal liability of our employees, workers, employees, representatives and vicarious agents.

 

10.8 A reversal of the burden of proof is not associated with the above provisions.

§ 12 Legal system, place of jurisdiction

12.1 German law applies to the exclusion of the UN Sales Convention. The contract language is German.

12.2 For customers who conclude the contract for a purpose that cannot be attributed to professional or commercial activity (consumer), this choice of law does not affect the mandatory provisions of the law of the state in which the customer has his habitual residence.

12.3 For all disputes arising from the contractual relationship, if the customer is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the place of jurisdiction is based on the registered office of our company in Bingen.
