Deadlines are only binding if they have been expressly confirmed by us in writing as binding.

Cancellation policy
Right of withdrawal
You have the right to cancel this contract within fourteen days without giving any reason. The revocation period is fourteen days from the day on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, have taken or has taken possession of the last goods. In order to exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (Präsentstudio SOENNECKEN e.K. Volmarsteiner Str. 2, 58089 Hagen, e-mail: info@praesentstudio.de, telephone number: 02331-94880, fax number: 02331-948888) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, fax or e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract.

To comply with the withdrawal period, it is sufficient for you to send the notification of the exercise of the right of withdrawal before the expiry of the withdrawal period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you withdraw from this contract, we must refund all payments we have received from you, including delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs resulting from the fact that you have chosen a type of delivery other than the cheapest standard delivery offered by us), without delay and at the latest within fourteen days of the day on which we received notification of your withdrawal from this contract. For this repayment, we will use the same means of payment that you used for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; in no case will you be charged for this repayment. We may refuse repayment until we have received the goods back or until you have provided proof that you have returned the goods, whichever is the earlier.
You must return or hand over the goods to us without undue delay and in any event no later than fourteen days from the day on which you notified us of the cancellation of this contract. The deadline is met if you send the goods before the expiry of the period of fourteen days. You shall bear the direct costs of returning the goods.
You only have to pay for any loss in value of the goods if this loss in value is due to handling of the goods that is not necessary for checking the condition, properties and functioning of the goods.

7. Warranty conditions
7.1
The statutory warranty rights apply to consumers.
7.2
The following shall additionally apply vis-à-vis entrepreneurs:
7.2.1
The warranty period is one year
7.2.2
If the customer is an entrepreneur, he is obliged to inspect the delivered goods immediately after delivery and to notify us in writing of any existing defects without delay (at the latest by the second working day after delivery). Defects which are notified late, i.e. contrary to the above obligation, are excluded from the warranty. Non-obvious defects which only become apparent in the course of time must be notified by the entrepreneur in writing immediately after discovery. Notices of defects shall only be recognised as such by us if they have been notified in writing, even if they are made to field staff, carriers or third parties.
7.2.3
Die im Falle eines Mangels erforderliche Rücksendung der Ware an uns durch Unternehmer kann nur mit unserem vorherigen Einverständnis erfolgen. Rücksendungen, die ohne unser vorheriges Einverständnis erfolgen, werden von uns nicht angenommen. In diesem Fall trägt der Kunde die Kosten der sich aus unserer Annahmeverweigerung ergebenden Rücksendung.
7.2.4
In the event that a rectification or replacement delivery is made on the basis of a justified notice of defect, the provisions on delivery time shall apply accordingly.
7.2.5
The warranty period begins with the transfer of risk to the customer. Within this warranty period, we shall remedy free of charge defects which the customer has notified in text form. We shall remedy the defect at our discretion by removing the defect, bypassing the defect or delivering another item (subsequent performance). The customer is obliged to compensate us for those benefits of use which he has derived from the defective item until delivery of a replacement item as compensation for use in accordance with the statutory regulations. If a supplementary performance fails, the customer may set us a further supplementary performance period of at least 3 weeks within which we must fulfil our obligations. This does not apply if setting a grace period is dispensable due to special circumstances (e.g. §§ 323 para. 2, 326 para. 5, 636 BGB). After the unsuccessful expiry of this period, the customer may, at his discretion, demand a reduction in the price, withdraw from the contract and, if the preconditions are met, demand compensation for damages.
7.2.6
Further claims of the customer against us are excluded, in particular claims for compensation for damage that has not occurred to the subject matter of the contract itself. This does not apply insofar as liability is assumed in cases of intent or gross negligence, cf. the regulations under section 8.
8. Liability
8.1
Notwithstanding the provisions on warranty as well as other special regulations made in these provisions, the following shall apply in cases where we have breached an obligation:
We shall be liable for our employees, vicarious agents and assistants for damages in an unlimited amount, also for slight negligence in the event of injury to life, body or health of persons.
Beyond this, we shall only be liable to the following extent:
8.2
If we breach a material contractual obligation, i.e. an obligation without the observance of which the purpose of the contract could not be fulfilled, we shall also be liable in cases of intent, gross negligence and slight negligence. In these cases, we shall compensate for the damage foreseeable at the time of conclusion of the contract and typical for the contract. If we do not act intentionally or with gross negligence but only with slight negligence, our liability in this respect shall be limited to the respective order value per case of damage, annually to twice the amount.
8.3
If the breach of duty by us does not lie in the violation of a material contractual duty, we shall only be liable for cases of gross negligence and intent.
8.4
Our liability for fraudulent intent and under the Product Liability Act remains unaffected.
9. Retention of title
9.1
The goods remain our property until full payment has been made. Before transfer of ownership, pledging, transfer by way of security, processing or transformation is not permitted without our consent.
9.2
If the customer is an entrepreneur, the following shall apply in addition: We reserve title to the delivered goods from the business relationship with the customer in simple, extended and expanded form until all claims (including all balance claims from current account) to which we are entitled against the customer for any legal reason now or in the future, or until the complete fulfilment of all claims from the respective contract. Any disposal of the goods subject to retention of title by the customer is only permitted in the customer's regular business transactions. Under no circumstances, however, may the goods be transferred to third parties as security within the scope of regular business transactions. In case of sale of the goods in the regular course of business, the paid purchase price shall take the place of the goods. The customer hereby assigns to us any claims arising from a possible sale. The customer is authorised to collect these claims as long as he meets his payment obligations towards us. With regard to the extended reservation of title (advance assignment of the respective purchase price claim), an assignment to third parties, in particular to a credit institution, is contrary to the contract and inadmissible. We shall be entitled at any time to examine the customer's sales documents and to inform his customers of the assignment. If the customer's claim has been included in a current account, the customer hereby already assigns to us his claim from the current account against his customer. The assignment is made in the amount that we had charged the customer for the resold goods subject to retention of title. In the event of seizure of the goods at the customer's premises, we are to be informed immediately by sending a copy of the execution record and an affidavit that the seized goods are the goods delivered by us and subject to retention of title. If the value of the securities pursuant to the above paragraphs of this section exceeds the amount of the outstanding claim secured thereby after deduction of the security costs by more than 20% for the foreseeable future, the customer shall be entitled to demand the release of securities from us to the extent that the excess exists.
10. Dispute settlement procedure
Consumers can use the platform for out-of-court online dispute resolution for disputes arising from online legal transactions. The platform can be accessed via the following link:
http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/
We are not willing or obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.
If you have any questions in this regard, you can contact us at the e-mail address info@praesentstudio.de.
11. Taking back electrical appliances and batteries
According to the Electrical and Electronic Equipment Act, electrical and electronic equipment marked with the following symbol must be disposed of separately and not with household waste:
Appliances marked with the aforementioned symbol can be disposed of free of charge at the branch, provided the edge length does not exceed 25 cm.
Larger appliances can only be disposed of if another corresponding or comparable appliance is purchased from us. Old batteries and accumulators that are not included in the appliance must be removed and disposed of separately before handing them in. You are responsible for deleting any personal data that may still be on your old device. We are always available for further information in this regard.
Since we sell batteries and rechargeable batteries or devices containing batteries and rechargeable batteries, we are obliged under the Battery Act (BattG) to inform you of the following: Batteries and rechargeable batteries must not be disposed of in household waste, but you are legally obliged to return used batteries and rechargeable batteries. Used batteries may contain harmful substances that can damage the environment or your health if not stored or disposed of properly. However, batteries also contain important raw materials such as iron, zinc, manganese or nickel and are recycled. After use, you can either return the batteries to us or take them to your local recycling centre free of charge. The crossed-out dustbin means that batteries and rechargeable batteries must not be disposed of in household waste.
You will find these signs on batteries and rechargeable batteries containing harmful substances:
Cd = battery/rechargeable battery contains cadmium
Pb = Battery contains lead
Hg = Battery contains mercury
12. Final provisions
The following shall additionally apply vis-à-vis entrepreneurs:
12.1
Should one or more of the above conditions be or become ineffective or contain a loophole, the remaining conditions shall remain unaffected. In such a case, the contracting parties shall be obliged to replace an invalid condition with a valid one that comes closest to the economic purpose of the invalid one. This also applies to the filling of any unintended gaps that need to be filled.
12.2
Any agreements deviating from or additional to the above terms and conditions shall only be effective in the form of a written supplementary agreement to the contract concluded by the parties in which reference is made to the amended terms and conditions. Any waiver of this written form requirement must also be in writing.
12.3
The place of performance for all obligations arising from this contract is our registered office. This does not apply to purchases of consumer goods. The sole place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from the contractual relationship as well as its validity, also in the context of a bill of exchange and/or cheque process, is, if the customer is a registered trader, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law or has its registered office abroad, at our discretion the registered office of us or the registered office of the customer.
12.4
The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply exclusively to this contractual relationship. The application of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.
