I. General terms and conditions with customer information
1 Scope of application
→ These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter "GTC") of Heike Kuschel, trading under "Lernfitness" (hereinafter "Seller"), apply to all contracts for the delivery of goods concluded by a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter "Customer / Buyer") with the Seller with regard to the goods presented by the Seller on the internet trading platform Etsy (hereinafter "Etsy"). The inclusion of the Customer's own terms and conditions is hereby objected to, unless otherwise agreed in advance.
→ For contracts for the supply of digital content, these GTC apply accordingly, unless something different is expressly regulated in this respect.
→ For the purposes of these GTC, a consumer is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither commercial nor self-employed. 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.
→ Digital content within the meaning of these GTC is all data that is not on a physical data carrier, which is produced in digital form and provided by the seller under the granting of certain rights of use regulated in more detail in these GTC.
2) Conclusion of contract
→ By posting an item on Etsy, a seller makes a binding offer to sell this item.
→ The customer can purchase the seller's offer via the online order form provided on Etsy. To do this, the customer must place the desired item in the virtual shopping cart on Etsy and then go through the ordering steps specified by Etsy. By clicking the button that concludes the ordering process, the customer declares acceptance of the offer, whereby a purchase contract for the goods previously selected by the customer is concluded.
→ The text of the contract shall be stored by the seller and sent to the customer in text form (e.g. e-mail or as part of an instant download) after conclusion of the contract together with these GTC and customer information. A further accessibility of the contract text by the seller himself does not take place.
→ Before bindingly placing the order, the customer can identify 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 enlargement function of the browser, with the help of which the display on the screen is enlarged. The customer can correct his entries before binding submission of the order within the framework of the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions.
→ The contract is available exclusively in German.
3) 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.
→ The right of withdrawal does not apply to consumers who do not belong to a Member State of the European Union at the time of conclusion of the contract and whose sole place of residence and delivery address are outside the European Union at the time of conclusion of the contract.
4) Prices and terms of payment
→ The prices stated by the seller are total prices and include the statutory sales tax. Any additional delivery and shipping costs are indicated separately in the respective product description.
→ For deliveries to countries outside the European Union, additional costs ( costs for the transfer of money by credit institutions such as transfer fees, exchange rate fees or import duties or taxes, e.g. customs duties) may be incurred in individual cases, for which the seller is not responsible and which are to be borne by the customer.
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.
→ The payment options are communicated to the customer in the seller's offer on Etsy.
→ In the case of payment by means of a payment method offered via the "Etsy Payments" payment service, payment processing is carried out via Etsy Ireland UC, 66/67 Great Strand Street, Dublin 1, Ireland (hereinafter "Etsy UC") or - if the payment is made in the currencies US dollars or Canadian dollars - via Etsy Inc, 117 Adams Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201, United States of America (hereinafter "Etsy Inc"). Etsy UC or Etsy Inc. enables the customer to use various payment methods as part of the payment processing via Etsy Payments. For the processing of payments, Etsy UC or Etsy Inc. may use the payment services of third parties. The specific payment method(s) available for the respective goods will be displayed to the customer in the respective offer of the seller or as part of the order processing. More information about and the terms of use of Etsy Payments are available here: https://www.etsy.com/de/legal/etsy-payments/?ref=list
5) Delivery and shipping conditions
→ The delivery of goods is made by shipping to the delivery address specified by the customer, unless otherwise agreed. When processing the transaction, the delivery address specified in the order processing at Etsy is decisive.
→ If the delivery of the goods fails for reasons for which the customer is responsible, the customer shall bear the costs incurred by the seller as a result. In the event of an effective exercise of the right of revocation by the customer, the provision made in the seller's revocation instructions shall apply to the return costs.
→ Digital content shall be provided to the customer exclusively in electronic form as follows:
- via download
6) Granting of rights of use for digital content
→ Unless otherwise stated in the DeepL description of the seller on Etsy, the seller grants the customer the non-exclusive right, unlimited in time and place, to use the content provided exclusively for private purposes.
→ A transfer of the contents to third parties or the creation of copies for third parties outside the scope of these GTC is not permitted, unless the seller has agreed to a transfer of the contractual license to the third party.
→ The granting of rights shall only become effective when the customer has paid the contractually owed remuneration in full. The seller may provisionally permit the use of the contractual content even before this point in time. A transfer of rights does not take place through such provisional permission.
7) Retention of title
If the Seller makes advance performance, he shall retain title to the delivered goods until the purchase price owed has been paid in full.
8) Liability for defects
→ If the purchased item is defective, the provisions of the statutory liability for defects shall apply.
→ Deviating from this, the following shall apply to used goods: Claims for defects are excluded if the defect occurs after one year from delivery of the goods. Defects that occur within one year of delivery of the goods can be claimed within the statutory limitation period. However, the reduction of the period of liability to one year shall not apply to
- for items which have been used for a building in accordance with their customary use and have caused its defectiveness,
- for claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses of the customer, as well as
- in the event that the seller has fraudulently concealed the defect.
→ If the customer acts as a consumer, he is requested to complain about delivered goods with obvious transport damage to the deliverer and to inform the seller of this. If the customer does not comply with this, this has no effect on his legal or contractual claims for defects.
9) Applicable law
→ The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to all legal relationships between the parties to the exclusion of the laws on the international purchase of movable goods. In the case of consumers, this choice of law shall only apply to the extent that the protection granted is not withdrawn by mandatory provisions of the law of the state in which the consumer has his habitual residence.
→ Furthermore, with regard to the statutory right of withdrawal, this choice of law shall not apply to consumers who do not belong to a Member State of the European Union at the time of conclusion of the contract and whose sole place of residence and delivery address are outside the European Union at the time of conclusion of the contract.
10) Alternative dispute resolution
→ The EU Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution on the Internet at the following link: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr
This platform serves as a contact point for the out-of-court settlement of disputes arising from online purchase or service contracts involving a consumer.
