1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "GTC") of Bauzoo GbR (hereinafter referred to as "Seller") apply to all contracts for the delivery of goods concluded by a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter referred to as "Customer") with the Seller with regard to the goods presented by the Seller in his online shop. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of the customer's own terms and conditions is hereby contradicted.

1.2 These GTC shall apply accordingly to contracts for the delivery of vouchers, unless expressly stipulated otherwise.

1.3 A consumer within the meaning of these GTC is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that can predominantly neither be attributed to his commercial nor his independent professional activity. An entrepreneur within the meaning of these GTC is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of his 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 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 shop. After placing the selected goods in the virtual shopping cart and going through the electronic ordering process, the customer submits a legally binding contract offer with regard to the goods contained in the shopping cart by clicking on the button concluding the order process. Furthermore, the customer can also submit the offer to the seller by telephone, e-mail, post or online contact form.

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 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 his order.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract is concluded at the time when one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. The period for acceptance of the offer begins on the day after the dispatch of the offer by the customer and ends with the expiry of the fifth day following the dispatch of the offer. If the seller does not accept the customer's offer within the aforementioned period, this shall be deemed to be a rejection of the offer with the result that the customer is no longer bound by his declaration of intent.

2.4 If a payment method offered by PayPal is selected, payment will be processed by the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter referred to as "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, the terms and conditions for payments without a PayPal Account, can be viewed at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacywax-full.

Kennedy, L-1855 Luxembourg (hereinafter referred to as "Amazon"), under the Amazon Payments Europe User Agreement, available at https://payments.amazon.de/help/201751590.

If the customer has set up a user account in the seller's online shop before sending his order, the order data will be archived on the seller's website and can be retrieved by the customer free of charge via his password-protected user account by providing the corresponding login data.

2.7 Before binding submission of the order via the online order form of the seller, the customer can recognize possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means for better detection of input errors can be the magnification function of the browser, with the help of which the display on the screen is enlarged. As part of the electronic ordering process, the customer can correct his entries using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until he clicks on the button concluding the ordering process.

2.8 The German and English languages are available for the conclusion of the contract.

2.9 The order processing and contact usually take place 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.

Such costs may also be incurred in relation to the transfer of funds if the delivery is not made to a country outside the European Union, but the Customer makes the payment from a country outside the European Union.

The seller reserves the right to refuse the customer the payment method "PayPal credit" in the event of a negative test result. If the payment method "PayPal Credit" is approved by PayPal, the Customer must pay the invoice amount to PayPal under the conditions specified by the Seller, which are communicated to him in the Seller's online shop.
