1) Scope
1. 1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "AGB") of encuma Handels GmbH (hereinafter referred to as "Seller") shall apply to all contracts concluded by a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter referred to as "Customer") with the Seller with regard to the goods and/or services presented by the Seller in its online shop. The inclusion of the Customer's own terms and conditions is hereby objected to, unless otherwise agreed.
1.2
A consumer within the meaning of these GTC is any natural person for whom the legal transaction is not part of the operation of his business. An entrepreneur within the meaning of these GTC is a natural person or legal entity or a partnership with legal capacity for which the legal transaction is part of the operation of its business.
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 for the submission of a binding offer by the Customer.
2.2 The customer can submit the offer via the online order form integrated in the seller's online shop. After placing the selected goods and/or services in the virtual shopping basket and going through the electronic ordering process, the customer makes a legally binding offer to enter into a contract with regard to the goods and/or services contained in the shopping basket by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process. Furthermore, the customer may also submit the offer to the seller by telephone or by e-mail.
If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract shall be concluded at the time when one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. 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 consequence that the customer shall no longer be bound by his declaration of intent.
2.4 The period for acceptance of the offer begins on the day after the customer has sent the offer and ends with the expiry of the fifth day following the sending of the offer.
2.7 Only the German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.
