General Terms and Conditions, Cancellation Policy and Disclaimer

 

§ 1 Scope of application

The business relationship between G.P. Probst Verlag GmbH (hereinafter referred to as "Publisher") and the Customer shall be governed exclusively by the following General Terms and Conditions (GTC) in the version valid at the time of the order. The Publisher does not recognize any deviating terms and conditions of the Customer, unless the Publisher has expressly agreed to their validity in writing.

 

§ 2 Conclusion of contract

The order is placed by submitting the fully completed order form. With the order, the customer bindingly declares that he wishes to purchase the goods. The purchase contract is only concluded when the publisher sends the ordered product to the customer. The information on goods and prices corresponds to the respective valid sales price. Prices are subject to change and errors excepted. The publisher makes every effort to avoid errors in its offers (i.e. website and price list).

 

§ 3 Right of withdrawal

For private customers: Consumers are entitled to a right of withdrawal. A consumer is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for a purpose that can be attributed neither to his commercial nor to his independent professional activity (§ 13 BGB).

 

CANCELLATION POLICY

 

Right of withdrawal

You can cancel your contract within 14 days without giving reasons in writing (eg letter, fax, e-mail) or - if the goods before the deadline - by returning the goods. The time limit begins after receipt of this notification in writing, but not before receipt of the goods by the consignee (in case of recurring deliveries of similar goods not before receipt of the first partial delivery) and also does not fulfill our obligations under Article 246 § 2 in conjunction with § 1 paragraph 1 and 2 EGBGB and our obligations under § 312g paragraph 1 sentence 1 BGB in conjunction with Article 246 § 3 EGBGB. The timely dispatch of the revocation or the item shall be sufficient to comply with the revocation period. The revocation is to be addressed to:

Consequences of revocation

In the event of an effective revocation, the services received by both parties shall be returned and any benefits derived (e.g. interest) shall be surrendered. If you are unable to return or surrender the received performance and benefits (e.g. benefits of use), or are only able to do so in part or in a deteriorated condition, you must compensate us for the loss of value. You only have to pay compensation for the deterioration of the item and for any use made of it if the use or deterioration is due to handling of the item that goes beyond the inspection of its properties and functionality. By “testing the properties and functionality” we mean testing and trying out the respective goods, such as is possible and customary in a retail store. Goods that can be sent by parcel are to be returned at our risk. You have to bear the regular costs of the return shipment if the delivered goods correspond to the ordered goods and if the price of the goods to be returned does not exceed an amount of 40 Euros or if, in case of a higher price of the goods, you have not yet rendered the consideration or a contractually agreed partial payment at the time of the revocation. Otherwise, the return shipment is free of charge for you. Items that cannot be sent by parcel post will be collected from you. Obligations to refund payments must be fulfilled within 30 days. The period begins for you with the dispatch of your revocation or the goods, for us with their receipt.

 

END OF THE LEGAL RIGHT OF REVOCATION

 

A right of revocation does not exist for goods that have been manufactured according to customer specifications or are clearly tailored to personal needs or are not suitable for return due to their nature.

Furthermore, a right of revocation does not exist for distance contracts for the delivery of audio or video recordings or software, if the delivered data carriers have been unsealed by the consumer.

§ 14 Disclaimer for links to other Internet sites

In its decision of May 12, 1998, the Regional Court of Hamburg ruled that the inclusion of links also leads to co-responsibility of the material offered via these links. This can be prevented – so the regional court – only by the fact that one dissociates oneself as an operator of the Internet side, which attaches left to other Internet sides, from these contents expressly. We have placed links to other sites on the Internet. The following applies to all such links: We have no influence whatsoever on the content or design of the linked pages. Therefore we dissociate ourselves hereby expressly from all contents of all sides, which are linked from our sides. This disclaimer applies to all links on our pages and to the content of all pages to which the links refer.

 

§ 15 Dispute resolution

For the out-of-court settlement of consumer disputes, the EU provides an online platform: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/

In accordance with § 36 VSBG, we would like to point out that we are not obligated to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board and do not participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.
