Terms and Conditions and Customer Information
I. General Terms and Conditions
§ 1 Basic Provisions
(1) The following terms and conditions apply to all contracts that you conclude with us as the provider (Merino-Online UG (haftungsbeschränkt)) via the website www.merino-store.com. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of your own terms and conditions, if any, is hereby rejected.
(2) A consumer in the sense of the following regulations 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 who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their independent professional or commercial activity.
§ 2 Conclusion of the Contract
(1) The subject of the contract is the sale of goods.
(2) By placing the respective product on our website, we make you a binding offer to conclude a contract under the conditions stated in the item description.
(3) The contract is concluded via the online shopping cart system as follows: The goods intended for purchase are placed in the "shopping cart." Using the corresponding button in the navigation bar, you can access the "shopping cart" and make changes there at any time. After accessing the "checkout" page and entering your personal data, payment, and shipping conditions, all order data is displayed again on the order overview page. If you use an instant payment system (e.g. PayPal / PayPal Express, Amazon Payments, Postpay, Sofort), you will either be redirected to the order overview page in our online shop or to the website of the instant payment provider. After completing your selection or entering your data on the website of the instant payment system, you will be redirected back to our online shop to the order overview page. Before submitting the order, you can review, change (also via the "back" function of your browser), or cancel the purchase. By submitting the order using the "buy" button, you declare the legally binding acceptance of the offer, resulting in the conclusion of the contract.
(4) Your inquiries to create an offer are non-binding for you. We will provide you with a binding offer in text form (e.g. by email), which you can accept within 5 days.
(5) The processing of the order and transmission of all information required in connection with the conclusion of the contract is partly automated by email. Therefore, you must ensure that the email address you provided is correct, and that you are able to receive emails and they are not blocked by spam filters.
§ 3 Right of Retention, Retention of Title
(1) You may only exercise a right of retention if it concerns claims arising from the same contractual relationship.
(2) The goods remain our property until full payment of the purchase price.
§ 4 Warranty
(1) Statutory defect liability rights apply.
(2) As a consumer, you are requested to check the goods 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 does not affect your statutory warranty rights.
§ 5 Choice of Law, Place of Performance, Jurisdiction
(1) German law applies. For consumers, this choice of law only applies to the extent that the protection granted is not withdrawn by mandatory provisions of the law of the state in which the consumer has their habitual residence (principle of favorability).
(2) The place of performance for all services from our existing business relationships and jurisdiction is our registered office, provided you are not a consumer but 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 residence or habitual residence is unknown at the time the action is brought. The authority to also appeal to the court at another statutory place of jurisdiction remains unaffected by this.
(3) The provisions of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) do not apply.
