1) Scope

1.1These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter “GTC”) of LIFEBRANDS NORDIC ApS (hereinafter “Seller”) apply to all contracts for the delivery of goods that a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter “Customer”) concludes with the Seller with regard to the goods 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.

1.2A consumer within the meaning of these General Terms and Conditions is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that cannot be predominantly attributed to either their commercial or independent professional activity.

1.3An entrepreneur within the meaning of these General Terms and Conditions is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.

2) Conclusion of contract

2.1The product descriptions contained in the seller's online shop do not represent binding offers on the part of the seller, but are used to make a binding offer by the customer.

2.2The customer can submit the offer using the online order form integrated into the seller's online shop. 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 on the button that completes the ordering process.

2.3The seller can 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 email), whereby the receipt of the order confirmation by the customer is decisive, or
  • by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, whereby the receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive, or
  • by asking the customer to pay after placing their order.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives are present, the contract is concluded at the point in time at which one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. The period for accepting the offer begins on the day after the customer sends the offer and ends at the end 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 is deemed to be a rejection of the offer with the result that the customer is no longer bound by his declaration of intent.

2.4When submitting an offer via the seller's online order form, the contract text is saved by the seller after the contract has been concluded and sent to the customer in text form (e.g. email, fax or letter) after the order has been sent. The seller will not make the contract text available beyond this.

2.5Before bindingly submitting the order via the seller's online order form, the customer can identify possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means of better detecting input errors can be the browser's magnification function, which enlarges the display on the screen. As part of the electronic ordering process, the customer can correct his entries using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until he clicks on the button that completes the ordering process.

2.6The German language is available for concluding the contract.

2.7Order processing and contact usually take place via email and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the email address he provided to process the order is correct so that emails sent by the seller can be received at this address. In particular, when using SPAM filters, the customer must ensure that all emails sent by the seller or by third parties commissioned by the seller to process the order can be delivered.

3) Right of withdrawal

3.1Consumers generally have a right of withdrawal.

3.2Further information on the right of withdrawal can be found in the seller's cancellation policy.

4) Prices and payment terms

4.1Unless otherwise stated in the seller's product description, the prices stated are total prices and include statutory sales tax. Any additional delivery and shipping costs that may arise will be stated separately in the respective product description.

4.2The payment option(s) will be communicated to the customer in the seller's online shop.

5) Delivery and shipping conditions

5.1If the seller offers to ship the goods, delivery will take place within the delivery area specified by the seller to the delivery address specified by the customer, unless otherwise agreed. When processing the transaction, the delivery address specified in the seller's order processing is decisive.

5.2If delivery of the goods fails for reasons for which the customer is responsible, the customer shall bear the reasonable costs incurred by the seller as a result. This does not apply with regard to the shipping costs if the customer effectively exercises his right of cancellation. If the customer effectively exercises the right of cancellation, the return shipping costs will be subject to the provisions set out in the seller's cancellation policy.

5.3If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold passes to the customer as soon as the seller has delivered the item to the freight forwarder, the freight carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment. If the customer acts as a consumer, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold is generally only transferred when the goods are handed over to the customer or a person authorized to receive them. Deviating from this, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold, even for consumers, passes to the customer as soon as the seller has delivered the item to the freight forwarder, the freight carrier or the other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment, if the customer commissions the freight forwarder, the freight carrier or the other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment to carry out the shipment and the seller has not previously named this person or institution to the customer.

5.4Self-collection is not possible for logistical reasons.

6) Retention of title

If the seller makes advance payments, he reserves ownership of the delivered goods until the purchase price owed has been paid in full.

7) Liability for defects (warranty)

Unless otherwise stated in the following regulations, the provisions of statutory liability for defects apply. Deviating from this, the following applies to contracts for the delivery of goods:

7.1If the customer acts as an entrepreneur,

  • the seller has the choice of the type of supplementary performance;
  • For new goods, the limitation period for defect rights is one year from delivery of the goods;
  • The warranty rights are excluded for used goods;
  • The statute of limitations does not begin again if a replacement delivery is made within the scope of liability for defects.

7.2The liability limitations and shortening of deadlines regulated above do not apply

  • for claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses by the customer,
  • in the event that the seller fraudulently concealed the defect,
  • for goods that have been used for a building in accordance with their normal use and have caused its defects,
  • for any obligation of the seller to provide updates for digital products, in contracts for the delivery of goods with digital elements.

7.3In addition, for entrepreneurs, the statutory limitation periods for any existing legal recourse claim remain unaffected.

7.4If the customer acts as a consumer, he is asked to complain to the deliverer about delivered goods with obvious transport damage and to inform the seller of this. If the customer does not comply with this, this will have no impact on his legal or contractual claims for defects.

8) Alternative dispute resolution

The seller is neither obliged nor willing to take part in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.
