General Terms and Conditions (B2B)

1. Scope of Application

These General Terms and Conditions (GTC) apply to all contracts, deliveries, and services provided by us to our clients. Our offerings are directed exclusively at business entities, companies, sole traders, and legal entities under public law within the meaning of Section 14 of the German Civil Code (BGB). We do not enter into contracts with consumers within the meaning of Section 13 BGB.

2. Contract Formation

Our offers and product representations are non-binding. A contract is established only upon our written order confirmation or upon dispatch/performance of the agreed services/goods.

3. Prices and Payment

• All prices listed are quoted in Euros (EUR) and are net prices, excluding statutory Value Added Tax (VAT), shipping costs, or custom duties, unless explicitly stated otherwise.
• Payments are due within the payment terms specified on the invoice upon issuance, without deductions.
• In the event of late payment, statutory default interest for B2B transactions (Section 288 (2) BGB) shall apply.

4. Delivery and Retention of Title

• Delivery dates and lead times are non-binding unless explicitly agreed upon as binding in writing.
• All delivered goods remain our property until full payment of all claims arising from the business relationship has been settled in full (Retention of Title).

5. Warranty and Notice of Defects

• The buyer/client must inspect the delivered goods or services immediately upon receipt for defects and notify us in writing without undue delay pursuant to Section 377 of the German Commercial Code (HGB). Failure to do so shall constitute approval of the goods.
• The warranty period for defects shall be 12 months from the date of delivery/acceptance, unless mandatory statutory liability applies.

6. Limitation of Liability

We are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence. For light negligence, our liability is limited to foreseeable, direct, and contract-typical damages, and only in cases of breach of essential contractual duties (cardinal obligations). Liability for indirect or consequential damages (such as loss of profit) is excluded to the extent permitted by law.

7. Place of Jurisdiction and Applicable Law

• These terms and all contracts between us shall be governed exclusively by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).
• The place of fulfillment and exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with these terms is our registered office.
