10. Warranty and Guarantees
10.1 Liability for Defects
Unless expressly agreed otherwise below, the statutory liability for defects applies.
The following limitations and reductions of time limits do not apply to claims based on damages caused by us, our legal representatives, or vicarious agents
- in the event of injury to life, body, or health
- in the event of intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty as well as fraudulent intent
- in the event of breach of essential contractual obligations, the fulfillment of which is essential for the proper performance of the contract and on which the contractual partner may regularly rely (cardinal obligations)
- within the scope of a guarantee promise, if agreed, or
- to the extent that the scope of application of the Product Liability Act is applicable.
Restrictions towards Businesses
Towards Businesses Only our own specifications and the manufacturer's product descriptions incorporated into the contract constitute an agreement regarding the quality of the goods; we assume no liability for public statements made by the manufacturer or other advertising claims. For businesses, the limitation period for claims based on defects in newly manufactured goods is one year from the transfer of risk. The preceding sentence does not apply to goods that, according to their customary use, have been used in a building and have caused its defectiveness.
The statutory limitation periods for the right of recourse under Section 445a of the German Civil Code (BGB) remain unaffected.
Note to Merchants
Merchants are subject to the duty to inspect and give notice of defects as stipulated in Section 377 of the German Commercial Code (HGB). If you fail to give notice as required therein, the goods are deemed approved, unless the defect was not discoverable upon inspection. This does not apply if we have fraudulently concealed a defect.
10.2 Warranties and Customer Service
Information on any applicable additional warranties and their exact terms and conditions can be found with the product and on dedicated information pages in the online shop.

We are always liable without limitation for claims arising from damages caused by us, our legal representatives, or vicarious agents
- in the event of injury to life, body, or health,
- in the event of intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty,
- in the event of a guarantee promise, insofar as agreed, or
- insofar as the scope of application of the Product Liability Act is applicable.
In the event of a breach of essential contractual obligations, the fulfillment of which is essential for the proper performance of the contract and on which the contractual partner may regularly rely (cardinal obligations), due to slight negligence on the part of us, our legal representatives, or vicarious agents, our liability is limited to the amount of the foreseeable damage that typically arises at the time of conclusion of the contract.
Otherwise, claims for damages are excluded.
12. Dispute Resolution
To resolve disputes arising from a contractual relationship with a consumer, or regarding whether such a contractual relationship even exists, we are obligated to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.

We may refuse to refund until we have received the Goods back or until you have proved that you have returned the Goods, whichever is earlier. You must return or hand over the goods to us immediately and in any case within thirty days of the day on which you notify us of the revocation of this contract at the latest. This period shall be deemed to have been observed if you dispatch the goods before expiry of the period of thirty days. You shall bear the direct costs of returning the goods.
