General terms and conditions and customer information
I. General Terms and Conditions
§ 1 Basic provisions
(1) The following terms and conditions apply to contracts that you conclude with us as a provider (EP-Arms GmbH) via the website www.ep-arms.de. 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 his 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.
§ 2 Formation of the contract
(1) The object of the contract is the sale of goods and/or the provision of repair services and/or the provision of installation services.
We sell the goods partially or exclusively as a commission agent in our own name for the account of a third party, i.e. for a third party as the owner of the goods. Irrespective of this, we are the contractual partner with all rights and obligations.
(2) By placing the respective product on our website, we make you a binding offer to conclude a contract via the online shopping cart system under the conditions specified in the item description.
(3) The contract is concluded via the online shopping cart system as follows:
The goods and/or repair services intended for purchase are stored in the “shopping cart”. You can call up the “shopping cart” via the corresponding button in the navigation bar and make changes there at any time.
After clicking on the “Checkout” or “Continue to order” button (or similar designation) and entering the personal data as well as the payment and shipping conditions, the order data will finally be displayed as an order overview.
If you use an instant payment system (e.g. PayPal (Express/Plus/Checkout), Amazon Pay, Sofort, giropay) as a payment method, you will either be redirected to the order overview page in our online store or to the website of the provider of the instant payment system.
If you are redirected to the respective instant payment system, you will make the appropriate selection or enter your data there. Finally, the order data will be displayed as an order overview on the website of the provider of the instant payment system or after you have been redirected back to our online store.
Before submitting the order, you have the option of checking the details in the order overview again, changing them (also via the “back” function of the Internet browser) or canceling the order.
(4) Your requests for the preparation of an offer are non-binding for you. We will submit a binding offer to you in text form (e.g. by e-mail), which you can accept within 5 days (unless another period is specified in the respective offer).
(5 ) The processing of the order and transmission of all information required in connection with the conclusion of the contract is partly 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.
§ 3 Individually designed goods
(1) You shall provide us with the suitable information, texts or files required for the individual design of the goods via the online ordering system or by e-mail at the latest immediately after conclusion of the contract. Any specifications we may have regarding file formats must be observed.
(2) You undertake not to transmit any data whose content infringes the rights of third parties (in particular copyrights, naming rights, trademark rights) or violates existing laws. You expressly indemnify us against all claims asserted by third parties in this connection. This also applies to the costs of any legal representation required in this connection.
(3) We do not check the transmitted data for correctness of content and in this respect accept no liability for errors.
§ 5 Provision of services for repairs
(1) Insofar as repair services are the subject matter of the contract, we owe the repair work resulting from the service description. We shall perform this work to the best of our knowledge and belief, either personally or through third parties.
(2) You are obliged to cooperate, in particular you must describe the existing defect in the device as comprehensively as possible and make the defective device available.
(3) You shall bear the costs for sending the defective device to us.
(4) Unless otherwise stated in the respective offer, the repair, including dispatch of the device, shall be carried out within 5 – 7 days after receipt of the device to be repaired (in the case of agreed advance payment, however, only after the time of your payment instruction).
(5) If you make use of your right of termination in accordance with § 648 p. 1 BGB, we may demand 10% of the agreed remuneration as a lump sum if performance has not yet begun. However, if the statutory right of revocation exists, this shall only apply if you only exercise your right of termination after the expiry of the revocation period. You reserve the right to prove that we have actually incurred no or significantly lower costs.
§ 6 Special agreements on payment methods offered
§ 7 Right of retentionRetention 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 shall remain our property until the purchase price has been paid in full.
(3) If you are an entrepreneur, the following also applies:
a) We reserve title to the goods until all claims arising from the current business relationship have been settled in full. Pledging or transfer of ownership by way of security is not permitted prior to the transfer of ownership of the reserved goods.
b) You may resell the goods in the ordinary course of business. In this case, you hereby assign to us all claims in the amount of the invoice amount that accrue to you from the resale; we accept the assignment. You are further authorized to collect the claim. However, if you do not properly meet your payment obligations, we reserve the right to collect the claim ourselves.
c) If the goods subject to retention of title are combined and mixed, we shall acquire co-ownership of the new item in the ratio of the invoice value of the goods subject to retention of title to the other processed items at the time of processing.
d) We undertake to release the securities to which we are entitled at your request to the extent that the realizable value of our securities exceeds the claim to be secured by more than 10%. We shall be responsible for selecting the securities to be released.
§ 8 Warranty
(1) The statutory liability for defects shall 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 shall have no effect on your statutory warranty claims.
(3) Insofar as a characteristic of the goods deviates from the objective requirements, the deviation shall only be deemed agreed if you were informed of the same by us before submitting the contractual declaration and the deviation was expressly and separately agreed between the contracting parties.
(4) If you are an entrepreneur, the following shall apply in deviation from the above warranty provisions:
a) Only our own specifications and the manufacturer’s product description shall be deemed agreed as the quality of the goods, but not other advertising, public promotions and statements by the manufacturer.
b) In the event of defects, we shall provide warranty at our discretion by rectification or subsequent delivery. If the rectification of defects fails, you may, at your discretion, demand a reduction in price or withdraw from the contract. The rectification of defects shall be deemed to have failed after the second unsuccessful attempt, unless the nature of the goods or the defect or other circumstances indicate otherwise. In the event of rectification of defects, we shall not be obliged to bear the increased costs incurred by moving the goods to a location other than the place of performance, unless such relocation corresponds to the intended use of the goods.
c) The warranty period is one year from delivery of the goods. The shortening of the period shall not apply:
– for culpably caused damage attributable to us arising from injury to life, limb or health and for other damage caused intentionally or through gross negligence;
– insofar as we have fraudulently concealed the defect or have assumed a guarantee for the quality of the item;
– for items that have been used for a building in accordance with their normal use and have caused its defectiveness;
– for statutory recourse claims that you have against us in connection with warranty rights.
§ 9 Choice of law, place of performance, 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 favorability).
(2 ) The place of performance for all services arising from the business relationships existing with us and the place of jurisdiction shall be 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 unknown at the time the action is brought. The right to appeal to the court at another legal place of jurisdiction remains unaffected by this.
(3) The provisions of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall expressly not apply.
§ 10 Protection of minors
(1 ) When selling goods that are subject to the provisions of the German Youth Protection Act, we only enter into contractual relationships with customers who have reached the legally prescribed minimum age.
Existing age restrictions are indicated in the respective item description.
(2) By submitting your order, you confirm that you have reached the minimum age required by law and that your name and address details are correct. You are obliged to ensure that only you or persons authorized by you to receive the delivery and who have reached the legally required minimum age receive the goods.
(3) If we are obliged by law to carry out an age check, we shall instruct the logistics service provider commissioned with the delivery to hand over the delivery only to persons who have reached the legally prescribed minimum age and, in case of doubt, to have the identity card of the person receiving the goods presented for age verification.
(4) Insofar as we indicate in the respective item description that you must be over 18 years of age to purchase the goods beyond the legally prescribed minimum age, the above paragraphs 1-3 shall apply with the proviso that you must be of legal age instead of the legally prescribed minimum age.
§ 11 Sale of weapons
(1 ) When selling goods covered by the Weapons Act, we only enter into contractual relationships with customers of legal age.
(2) By submitting your order, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and that your name and address details are correct. You further undertake that only you will receive the goods upon delivery.
(3) We instruct the logistics service provider commissioned with the delivery to hand over the goods to you only after checking your age and identity.
