Terms & Conditions

Scope

• These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "GTC") of Steinbild GmbH (hereinafter referred to as "Seller") shall 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 its online store. The inclusion of the Customer's own terms and conditions is hereby objected to, unless otherwise agreed.
• These GTC shall apply mutatis mutandis to contracts for the delivery of digital content, unless otherwise expressly agreed.
• These GTC shall apply accordingly to contracts for the delivery of vouchers, unless otherwise expressly stipulated.
• A consumer within the meaning of these GTC is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that can predominantly be attributed neither to his commercial nor to 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.
• For the purposes of these GTC, digital content is all data that is not on a physical data carrier, is produced in digital form and is provided by the seller under the granting of certain rights of use regulated in more detail in these GTC.
• The subject of the contract may be - depending on the Seller's product description - both the purchase of goods by way of a one-time 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 supply the Customer with the contractually owed goods for the duration of the agreed contract term at the contractually owed time intervals.

Contract conclusion

• The product descriptions contained in the online store of the seller do not represent binding offers on the part of the seller, but serve to submit a binding offer by the customer.
• The Customer may submit the offer via the online order form integrated into the Seller's online store. In doing so, after placing the selected goods 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 contained in the shopping cart by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process.
• The seller may accept the customer's offer within five days,
1. by sending the customer a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or e-mail), in which case the receipt of the order confirmation by the customer shall be decisive, or
2. by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, in which case the receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive, or
3. by requesting payment from the customer after the customer's order has been placed.
• If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract shall be concluded at the time when one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. The period for the acceptance of the offer begins on the day after the sending of the offer by the customer and ends with the expiry of the fifth day following the sending 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 consequence that the Customer shall no longer be bound by its declaration of intent.
• If a payment method offered by PayPal is selected, the payment shall be processed via the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter: "PayPal"), subject to the PayPal Terms of Use, which can be viewed under PayPal Terms of Use or - if the customer does not have a PayPal account - subject to the terms for payments without a PayPal account, which can be viewed under Terms for "Payments without a PayPal account". If the customer pays by means of a payment method offered by PayPal that can be selected in the online ordering process, the seller already declares acceptance of the customer's offer at the time the customer clicks the button that concludes the ordering process.
• When submitting an offer via the Seller's online order form, the text of the contract shall be stored by the Seller after the conclusion of the contract and transmitted to the Customer in text form (e.g. e-mail, fax or letter) after the Customer has sent his order. The seller shall not make the text of the contract accessible beyond this.
• Before bindingly placing the 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 means for better recognition of input errors can be the magnification function of the browser, with the help of which the display on the screen is enlarged. The customer can correct his entries during the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until he clicks the button that concludes the ordering process.
• Only the German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.
• The order processing and contacting usually take place via 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 e-mails sent by the seller can be received at this address. In particular, when using SPAM filters, the customer must ensure that all e-mails sent by the seller or by third parties commissioned by the seller to process the order can be delivered.

Right of withdrawal

• Consumers are generally entitled to a right of withdrawal.
• More information on the right of withdrawal can be found in the seller's cancellation policy.

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.
