General Terms and Conditions for Books and Shop

§ 1 Scope of Validity
The General Terms and Conditions version valid at the time of order placement applies exclusively to the business relationship between Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) and the customer. Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) does not accept the validity of any deviating customer conditions unless Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) has expressly agreed to the validity of these in writing.

§ 2 Conclusion of Contract and Withdrawal
Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) hereby undertakes to accept the order of the customer to the conditions of the Web site. In the event of spelling, printing and calculating errors on the Web site Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) is entitled to withdraw from the agreement.
Should the supplier of Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de), in spite of contractual obligations, not deliver the ordered goods to Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de), Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) is also entitled to withdraw from the agreement. In this case the customer will be informed immediately that the ordered product is not available. The paid purchasing price will be reimbursed immediately.

§ 3 Delivery
If no other terms have been specified, the goods will be delivered ex warehouse to the delivery address stated by the customer. Stated delivery times are not binding unless a binding delivery date has been given in writing in exceptional cases.
We have a minimum order of 25,00EUR. When the good ordered are less than this amount, an extra charge ist added to reach the minimum order total of 25,00EUR.

§ 4 Course Registration
Should the course selected by the customer already be fully booked and if the customer has already paid the advance payment, the customer shall be informed immediately by Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) and the advance payment immediately reimbursed. Cancellation of registration for a course and reimbursement of the advance payment is only possible in writing within ten days of registration. If the customer registers for the course and fails to attend, the full course fee will become payable and invoiced to the customer. If the minimum number of attendees is not reached, Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) is entitled to cancel a course at any time.

§ 5 Due Date and Payment, Default
The purchasing price is due immediately upon order placement. The customer can make payment by credit card or direct debit. If a customer fails to make due payment, Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) is entitled to demand eight per cent interest on the due sum. If Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) can provide evidence of greater losses arising from payment arrears, Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) is entitled to claim for these.

§ 6 Offsetting, Retention
The customer is only entitled to offset arrears if his counterclaim has been legally established or recognised by Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de). In addition he is only entitled to assert the right of retention if the counter- claim is based on the same contractual relationship.

§ 7 Retention of Title
The delivered goods remain the property of Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) until the payment due from the customer has been made in full.

§ 8 Warranty for Defects and Liability
If the purchased goods have any fault for which Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) is responsible, the customer can opt for either reparation of the defect or replacement delivery. If Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de), due to disproportion, is not prepared or in a position to remedy the defect or replace the faulty goods or if this is delayed for unreasonable periods for which Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) is responsible, or if the remedy of defect or replacement fails in any other way, the customer is entitled as desired to either withdraw from the contract, demand a corresponding reduction in price or claim for damages.
Should nothing to the contrary be included in the following, any other claims of the customer -- irrespective of the legal basis -- are excluded. Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) therefore does not accept liability for damage which has not occurred on the delivered product itself; in particular Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) does not accept any liability for lost profit or other financial loss of the customer. If the liability of Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) is excluded or restricted, this also applies to the personal liability of employees, representatives or agents.
This previous restriction on liability does not apply if the cause of the damage is due to intent or gross negligence or if personal injury is incurred. Furthermore it does not apply when the customer makes claims in accordance with Articles 1 and 4 of the Product Liability Act, claims arising from the lack of a warranted characteristic or claims for damages for non-performance in accordance with Articles 463, 480 paragraph 2 of the German Civil Code .
If Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) negligently violates a contractual obligation, the replacement obligation for material damage is limited to the damage which typically occurs.
The warranty period is two years, starting upon delivery. This period is a limitation period and also applies to claims for reparation of consequential harm caused by a defect, unless claims for tortious acts are asserted.

§ 9 Data Protection
We store personal data for order handling purposes. These data are not passed on to third parties. Robert Oppeneder (sweetART.de) is, however, entitled to use these address data for promotional purposes for his own company.

§ 10 Court of Jurisdiction and Applicable Law
Place of performance and court of jurisdiction for all rights and obligations of both parties arising from an order or course registration is Munich, Germany. German law shall apply to the exclusion of the UN Sales Law.
