1) Scope of application

1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter "GTC") of Jupiter Küchenmaschinen GmbH (hereinafter "Seller") apply to all contracts for the delivery of goods concluded by a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter "Customer") with the seller regarding the goods presented by the seller in its online shop. The inclusion of the customer's own terms and conditions is hereby rejected unless otherwise agreed.

1.2 Consumer within the meaning of these Terms and Conditions is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither attributable to their commercial nor their independent professional activity.

1.3 Entrepreneur within the meaning of these Terms and Conditions is a natural or legal person or a legally capable partnership who acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity when concluding a legal transaction.

2) Conclusion of contract

2.1 The product descriptions contained in the seller's online shop do not constitute binding offers by 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 shop. In doing so, after placing the selected goods in the virtual shopping cart and completing the electronic ordering process, the customer submits a legally binding contract offer regarding the goods contained in the shopping cart by clicking the button that completes the ordering process. Furthermore, the customer can also submit the offer by telephone, e-mail, or postal mail to the seller.

2.3 The 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 e-mail), 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 requesting payment from the customer after the customer has submitted their order.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives apply, the contract is concluded at the time when the first of the aforementioned alternatives occurs. The acceptance period for the offer begins the day after the offer is submitted by the customer and ends at the end of the fifth day following the submission of the offer. If the seller does not accept the customer's offer within the aforementioned period, this is considered a rejection of the offer, with the consequence that the customer is no longer bound by their declaration of intent.

2.4 If a payment method offered by PayPal is selected, the payment processing is carried out by the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter: "PayPal"), under the PayPal terms of use, which can be viewed at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full or – if the customer does not have a PayPal account – under the terms for payments without a PayPal account, which can be viewed at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacywax-fullIf the customer pays using a payment method offered by PayPal selectable during the online ordering process, the seller hereby declares acceptance of the customer's offer at the moment the customer clicks the button that completes the ordering process.

2.5 When submitting an offer via the seller's online order form, the contract text is stored by the seller after the conclusion of the contract and sent to the customer in text form (e.g., email, fax, or letter) after the customer submits their order. The seller does not provide any further access to the contract text. If the customer has created a user account in the seller's online shop before submitting their order, the order data is archived on the seller's website and can be accessed by the customer free of charge via their password-protected user account using the corresponding login details.

2.6 Before submitting the order bindingly via the seller's online order form, the customer can detect possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means to better detect input errors can be the browser's zoom function, which enlarges the display on the screen. The customer can correct his entries during the electronic ordering process as long as usual keyboard and mouse functions are used until he clicks the button that completes the ordering process.

2.7 The contract can be concluded in German and English.

2.8 Order processing and contact usually take place via email and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the email address provided for order processing 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 third parties commissioned by the seller for order processing can be delivered.

3) Right of withdrawal

3.1 Consumers generally have a right of withdrawal.

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

4) Prices and payment terms

4.1 Unless otherwise stated in the seller's product description, the prices indicated are total prices including statutory VAT. Any additional delivery and shipping costs will be specified separately in the respective product description.

4.2 For deliveries to countries outside the European Union, additional costs may be incurred in individual cases, which the seller is not responsible for and which must be borne by the customer. These include, for example, costs for money transfers by credit institutions (e.g., transfer fees, exchange rate fees) or import duties or taxes (e.g., customs duties). Such costs may also arise in connection with money transfers even 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.

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

4.4 If prepayment by bank transfer is agreed, payment is due immediately after the contract is concluded, unless the parties have agreed on a later due date.

4.5 If a payment method offered via the payment service "PayPal" is selected, the payment processing is carried out by PayPal, which may also use the services of third-party payment providers. If the seller offers payment methods via PayPal where they advance payment to the customer (e.g., invoice purchase or installment payment), they assign their payment claim to PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal and specifically named to the customer. Before accepting the seller's assignment declaration, PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal conducts a credit check using the transmitted customer data. The seller reserves the right to refuse the selected payment method to the customer in case of a negative credit check result. If the selected payment method is approved, the customer must pay the invoice amount within the agreed payment period or in the agreed payment intervals. In this case, payment can only be made to PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal with discharging effect. However, the seller remains responsible for general customer inquiries, e.g., regarding goods, delivery time, shipping, returns, complaints, revocation declarations and submissions, or credit notes, even in the case of claim assignment.

4.6 If the payment method "SOFORT" is selected, the payment processing is carried out by the payment service provider SOFORT GmbH, Theresienhöhe 12, 80339 Munich (hereinafter "SOFORT"). To pay the invoice amount via "SOFORT," the customer must have an online banking account enabled for participation in "SOFORT," authenticate themselves accordingly during the payment process, and confirm the payment instruction to "SOFORT." The payment transaction is then carried out immediately by "SOFORT," and the customer's bank account is debited. More information about the payment method "SOFORT" can be found online at https://www.klarna.com/sofort/ retrieve.

4.7 If a payment method offered via the payment service "Shopify Payments" is selected, the payment processing is carried out by the payment service provider Stripe Payments Europe Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland (hereinafter "Stripe"). The individual payment methods offered through Shopify Payments are communicated to the customer in the seller's online shop. For payment processing, Stripe may use additional payment services, which may be subject to special payment conditions that the customer will be informed about separately if applicable. Further information about "Shopify Payments" can be found online at https://www.shopify.com/legal/terms-payments-de available.

4.8 When selecting a payment method offered via the payment service "Klarna," payment processing is carried out by Klarna Bank AB (publ), Sveavägen 46, 111 34 Stockholm, Sweden (hereinafter "Klarna"). Further information and Klarna's terms can be found in the seller's payment information, which is accessible at the following internet address:

5) Delivery and Shipping Conditions

5.1 If the seller offers shipping of the goods, delivery will be made within the delivery area specified by the seller to the delivery address provided by the customer, unless otherwise agreed. The delivery address specified in the seller's order processing is decisive for the transaction.

5.2 If delivery of the goods fails for reasons attributable to the customer, the customer bears the reasonable costs incurred by the seller as a result. This does not apply to the costs of sending if the customer effectively exercises their right of withdrawal. For return shipping costs, the regulation set out in the seller's withdrawal instructions applies in the event of effective exercise of the right of withdrawal by the customer.

5.3 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold goods passes to the customer as soon as the seller has delivered the item to the carrier, freight forwarder, or other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment. If the customer acts as a consumer, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold goods generally only passes to the customer upon delivery of the goods to the customer or an authorized recipient. Deviating from this, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold goods also passes to the customer in the case of consumers as soon as the seller has delivered the item to the carrier, freight forwarder, or other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment, if the customer has commissioned the carrier, freight forwarder, or other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment and the seller has not previously named this person or institution to the customer.

5.4 The seller reserves the right to withdraw from the contract in the event of incorrect or improper self-supply. This only applies if the non-delivery is not the seller’s fault and the seller has concluded a specific coverage transaction with the supplier with due diligence. The seller will make all reasonable efforts to procure the goods. In the event of non-availability or only partial availability of the goods, the customer will be informed immediately and the consideration will be refunded immediately.

5.5 Self-collection is not possible for logistical reasons.

6) Retention of title

If the seller advances performance, he reserves ownership of the delivered goods until full payment of the owed purchase price.

7) Warranty for defects (guarantee)

7.1 Unless otherwise specified in the following provisions, the provisions of statutory warranty law apply. Deviating from this, in contracts for the delivery of goods:

7.2 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur,

• the seller has the choice of the type of subsequent performance;
• the limitation period for defects for new goods is one year from delivery of the goods;
• rights and claims due to defects are excluded for used goods;
• the limitation period does not start anew if a replacement delivery is made within the scope of warranty claims.

7.3 The liability limitations and time reductions regulated above do not apply

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

7.4 Furthermore, for entrepreneurs, the statutory limitation periods for any existing statutory recourse claims remain unaffected.

7.5 If the customer acts as a merchant within the meaning of § 1 HGB, the commercial duty of inspection and notification pursuant to § 377 HGB applies. If the customer fails to comply with the notification obligations regulated there, the goods shall be deemed approved.

7.6 If the customer acts as a consumer, they are requested to report goods with obvious transport damage to the carrier and to inform the seller accordingly. Failure to do so shall have no effect on their statutory or contractual warranty claims.

8) Applicable Law

For all legal relationships between the parties, the law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies, excluding the laws on the international sale of movable goods. For consumers, this choice of law applies only insofar as the protection granted by mandatory provisions of the law of the state in which the consumer has their habitual residence is not withdrawn.

9) Place of Jurisdiction

If the customer acts as a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law with its registered office in the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract is the seller’s place of business. If the customer’s registered office is outside the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany, the seller’s place of business shall be the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract if the contract or claims arising from the contract can be attributed to the customer’s professional or commercial activity. However, in the above cases, the seller is entitled in any case to bring an action before the court at the customer’s place of business.

10) Code of Conduct

- The seller has submitted to the Trusted Shops quality criteria, which are available on the internet at http://www.trustedshops.com/tsdocument/TS_QUALITY_CRITERIA_de.pdf are accessible.

11) Alternative Dispute Resolution

11.1 The EU Commission provides an online dispute resolution platform on the internet at the following link: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr

This platform serves as a point of contact for the out-of-court settlement of disputes arising from online purchase or service contracts involving a consumer.

11.2 The seller is neither obligated nor willing to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.
