The inclusion of the customer’s own terms and conditions is hereby rejected, unless otherwise agreed.
1.2.These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the delivery of goods with digital elements, unless otherwise agreed. In addition to the delivery of the goods, the seller owes the provision of digital content or digital services (hereinafter “digital products”) that are contained in or connected to the goods in such a way that the goods cannot fulfill their functions without them.
1.3.These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the delivery of physical data carriers that serve exclusively as carriers of digital content, unless otherwise agreed. Digital content within the meaning of these GTC is data that is created and provided in digital form.
1.4.These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the provision of digital content, unless otherwise agreed. Digital content within the meaning of these GTC is data that is created and provided in digital form.
1.5.These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the provision of license keys, unless otherwise agreed. The seller is responsible for providing a license key for the use of the digital content or digital services described by it (hereinafter “digital products”) and for granting the contractually agreed rights to use the respective digital products. The customer does not acquire any intellectual property rights to the digital product. The respective product description of the seller is decisive for the quality of the digital product.
1.6.A consumer within the meaning of these GTC is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly outside their trade, business or profession.
1.7.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, is acting in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.
1.8.Depending on the seller’s product description, the subject of the contract may be both the purchase of goods by way of a one-off delivery and the purchase of goods by way of a permanent delivery (hereinafter “subscription contract”). In the case of a subscription contract, the seller undertakes to deliver the contractually owed goods to the customer for the duration of the agreed contract term at the contractually owed intervals.
1.9.Depending on the seller’s content description, the subject of the contract may be both the one-off provision of digital content and the regular provision of digital content (hereinafter “subscription contract”). In the case of a subscription contract, the seller undertakes to provide the customer with the contractually owed digital content for the duration of the agreed contract term at the contractually agreed time intervals.
2.Conclusion of contract
2.1.The product descriptions contained in the seller’s online store 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 store. After placing the selected goods and/or services in the virtual shopping cart and going through the electronic ordering process, the customer submits a legally binding contractual offer with regard to the goods and/or services contained in the shopping cart by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process. Furthermore, the customer can also submit the offer to the seller by e-mail, fax, telephone 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 the order has been placed.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract is concluded at the point in time at which 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 a rejection of the offer with the consequence that the customer is no longer bound by his declaration of intent.

2.4.When submitting an offer via the seller’s online order form, the text of the contract is saved by the seller after the contract is concluded and sent to the customer in text form (e.g. e-mail, fax or letter) after the customer’s order has been sent. The seller will not make the text of the contract available beyond this.
2.5.Before placing a binding order via the seller’s online order form, the customer can recognize possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical tool for better recognition of input errors can be the browser’s magnification function, which enlarges the display on the screen. The customer can correct his entries during the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until he clicks on the button that concludes the ordering process.
2.6.The German and English languages are available for the conclusion of the contract.
2.7.Orders are generally processed and contact established by e-mail and automated order processing.

3.Right of withdrawal
3.1Consumers are generally entitled to a right of withdrawal.
3.2Further information on the right of withdrawal can be found in the seller’s withdrawal policy.

These include, for example, costs for the transfer of money by credit institutions (e.g. transfer fees, exchange rate fees) or import duties or taxes (e.g. customs duties). 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.

Pre-notification” is any communication (e.g. invoice, policy, contract) from the seller to the customer that contains a debit via SEPA-direct debit. If the direct debit is not honored due to insufficient funds in the account or due to the provision of incorrect bank details, or if the customer objects to the direct debit although he is not entitled to do so, the customer shall bear the fees incurred by the respective credit institution as a result of the chargeback if he is responsible for this.
4.6In the case of subscription contracts, the purchase price for the goods to be delivered on a permanent basis for the agreed delivery interval is due for payment in advance. The respective payment options for the subscription are communicated to the customer in the seller’s online store. When selecting the payment method SEPA-direct debit and issuing a corresponding SEPA-direct debit mandate, amounts due will be collected from the customer’s bank account at the beginning of each new delivery interval. If the direct debit is not honored due to insufficient funds in the account or due to the provision of incorrect bank details, or if the customer objects to the direct debit although he is not entitled to do so, the customer shall bear the fees incurred by the respective credit institution as a result of the chargeback if he is responsible for this. The seller reserves the right to carry out a credit check when selecting the direct debit payment method and to reject this payment method if the credit check is negative.

BS PAYONE GmbH collects the invoice amount from the customer’s specified credit card account. The credit card will be charged immediately after the customer order has been sent in the online store.
