General terms and conditions and customer information
I. General Terms and Conditions
§ 1 Basic Provisions
(1) The following terms and conditions apply to contracts that you conclude with us as the provider (Rakaille Company GmbH) via the website www.raka-textil.shop. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of any terms and conditions used by you is hereby rejected.
(2) For the purposes of these provisions, a consumer is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither attributable to their commercial nor their independent professional activity. An entrepreneur is any natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity that, when entering into a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their independent professional or commercial activity.
§ 2 Formation of the contract
(1) The subject of the contract is the sale of goods.
(2) Your requests for a quotation are non-binding. We will then submit a binding offer to you in written form (e.g., by email), which you can accept within 5 days (unless a different deadline is specified in the respective offer).
(3) Order processing and the transmission all information required in connection with the conclusion of the contract are carried out partly automatically via email. You must therefore ensure that the email address you have provided to us is correct, that the receipt of emails is technically ensured, and in particular that it is not prevented by spam filters.
§ 3 Individually designed goods
(1) You shall provide us with the suitable information, texts or files required for the individual design of the goods via the online ordering system or by email immediately after conclusion of the contract. You must comply with any specifications we may have regarding file formats.
(2) You undertake not to transmit any data whose content infringes the rights of third parties (in particular copyrights, name rights, trademark rights) or violates applicable laws. You expressly indemnify us against all claims asserted by third parties in this context. This also includes the costs of any legal representation required in this connection.
(3) We do not check the transmitted data for accuracy and therefore accept no liability for errors.
§ 4 Right of retention, reservation of title
(1) You may only exercise a right of retention insofar as it relates to claims arising from the same contractual relationship.
(2) The goods shall remain our property until the purchase price has been paid in full.
(3) If you are an entrepreneur, the following also applies:
a) We retain title to the goods until all claims arising from the ongoing business relationship have been settled in full. Pledging or assigning the goods as security is not permitted before title has passed.
b) You may resell the goods in the ordinary course of business. In this case, you hereby assign to us all claims arising from the resale up to the amount of the invoice; we accept this assignment. You remain authorized to collect the receivables. However, if you fail to meet your payment obligations, we reserve all right to collect the receivables ourselves.
c) In the event of combination or mixing of the goods subject to retention of title, we acquire co-ownership of the new item in proportion to the invoice value of the goods subject to retention of title to the other processed items at the time of processing.
d) We undertake to release the collateral held by us at your request to the extent that the realizable value of our collateral exceeds the secured claim by more than 10%. The selection of the collateral to be released is at our discretion.
§ 5 Warranty
(1) The statutory warranty rights apply.
(2) As a consumer, you are requested to inspect the goods immediately upon delivery for completeness, obvious defects, and transport damage, and to notify us and the carrier of any complaints as soon as possible. Failure to do so will not affect your statutory warranty rights.
(3) If a characteristic of the goods deviates from the objective requirements, the deviation shall only be deemed agreed if you were informed of it before we submitted the contractual declaration and the deviation was expressly and separately agreed between the contracting parties.
(4) If you are an entrepreneur, the following applies in deviation from the above warranty provisions:
a) Only our own specifications and the manufacturer's product description are considered agreed upon as the quality of the goods, but not other advertising, public statements and pronouncements by the manufacturer.
b) In the event of defects, we will, at our discretion, provide a remedy by repair or replacement. If the remedy fails, you may, at your option, demand a reduction in price or withdraw from the contract. A remedy is deemed to have failed after a second unsuccessful attempt, unless the nature of the goods or the defect, or other circumstances, indicate otherwise. In the all of repair, we are not obligated to bear the increased costs incurred by transporting the goods to a location other than the place of performance, unless such transport is in accordance with the intended use of the goods.
c) The warranty period is one year from delivery of the goods. This reduction of the warranty period does not apply:
- Damages attributable to us caused by negligence resulting in injury to life, body or health, and in the case of other damages caused intentionally or by gross negligence;
- insofar as we have fraudulently concealed the defect or have assumed a guarantee for the quality of the item;
- in the case of items that, according to their usual purpose, have been used for a building and have caused its defectiveness;
- in the case of statutory recourse claims that you may have against us in connection with warranty rights.
§ 6 Choice of law, place of performance, place of jurisdiction
(1) German law shall apply. In the case of consumers, this choice of law shall only apply to the extent that it does not deprive them of the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the state in which they have their habitual residence (principle of most favorable law).
(2) The place of performance for all services arising from our business relationship and the place of jurisdiction is our registered office, unless you are a consumer, but rather a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law. The same applies if you do not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany or the EU, or if your domicile or habitual residence is unknown at the time the action is brought. This does not affect the right to bring an action before a court at another legally established place of jurisdiction.
(3) The provisions of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) shall expressly not apply.
