1) Scope

1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter "GTC") of Havin Aydinci, trading as "Lome" (hereinafter "Seller"), apply to all contracts for the delivery of goods concluded by a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter "Customer") with the Seller regarding the goods presented by the Seller in his online shop. The inclusion of the Customer's own terms and conditions is hereby objected to, unless otherwise agreed.

1.2 These GTC apply mutatis mutandis to contracts for the delivery of vouchers, unless otherwise stipulated in this regard.

1.3 A consumer within the meaning of these GTC is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither commercial nor self-employed.

1.4 An entrepreneur within the meaning of these GTC is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of his commercial or independent professional activity.

2) Conclusion of Contract

2.1 The product descriptions contained in the Seller's online shop do not constitute binding offers on the part of the Seller, but serve to enable the Customer to submit a binding offer.

2.2 The Customer can submit the offer via the online order form integrated into the Seller's online shop. After placing the selected goods in the virtual shopping cart and going through the electronic ordering process, the Customer submits a legally binding contractual offer for the goods contained in the shopping cart by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process.

2.3 The Seller can accept the Customer's offer within five days,

  • by sending the Customer a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or e-mail), whereby the receipt of the order confirmation by the Customer is decisive, or
  • by delivering the ordered goods to the Customer, whereby the receipt of the goods by the Customer is decisive, or
  • by requesting the Customer to pay after placing his order.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract is concluded at the time when one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. The period for acceptance of the offer begins on the day after the Customer sends the offer and ends at the end of the fifth day following the sending of the offer. If the Seller does not accept the Customer's offer within the aforementioned period, this is considered a rejection of the offer with the consequence that the Customer is no longer bound by his declaration of intent.

2.4 If a payment method offered by PayPal is selected, the payment processing takes place via the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter: "PayPal"), subject to the PayPal terms of use, viewable at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full or – if the Customer does not have a PayPal account – subject to the terms for payments without a PayPal account, viewable at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacywax-full. If the Customer pays using a PayPal payment method selectable in the online ordering process, the Seller hereby declares acceptance of the Customer's offer at the time the Customer clicks the button that concludes the ordering process.

2.5 If the "Amazon Payments" payment method is selected, payment processing is carried out by the payment service provider Amazon Payments Europe s.c.a., 38 avenue John F. Kennedy, L-1855 Luxembourg (hereinafter: "Amazon"), subject to the Amazon Payments Europe User Agreement, viewable at https://pay.amazon.de/help/201751590. If the Customer selects "Amazon Payments" as the payment method during the online ordering process, by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process, he also issues a payment order to Amazon. In this case, the Seller hereby declares acceptance of the Customer's offer at the time the Customer triggers the payment process by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process.

2.6 When submitting an offer via the Seller's online order form, the contract text is stored by the Seller after the contract is concluded and sent to the Customer in text form (e.g. e-mail, fax or letter) after the Customer's order has been placed. The Seller will not make the contract text accessible beyond this.

2.7 Before submitting a binding order via the Seller's online order form, the Customer can identify possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means for better recognition of input errors can be the browser's magnification function, which enlarges the display on the screen. The Customer can correct his entries during the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until he clicks the button that concludes the ordering process.

2.8 The German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.

2.9 Order processing and contact usually take place via e-mail and automated order processing. The Customer must ensure that the e-mail address provided by him for order processing is correct, so that e-mails sent by the Seller can be received at this address. In particular, when using SPAM filters, the Customer must ensure that all e-mails sent by the Seller or by third parties commissioned by the Seller to process the order can be delivered.

3) Right of Withdrawal

3.1 Consumers generally have a right of withdrawal.

3.2 Further information on the right of withdrawal can be found in the Seller's cancellation policy.

4) Prices and Payment Terms

4.1 Unless otherwise stated in the Seller's product description, the prices quoted are total prices that include the statutory sales tax. Any additional delivery and shipping costs will be indicated separately in the respective product description.

4.2 The payment option(s) will be communicated to the Customer in the Seller's online shop.

4.3 If payment in advance by bank transfer is agreed, payment is due immediately after conclusion of the contract, unless the parties have agreed on a later due date.

4.4 If a payment method offered via the payment service "PayPal" is selected, the payment processing takes place via PayPal, whereby PayPal can also use the services of third-party payment service providers for this purpose. If the Seller also offers payment methods via PayPal for which he makes advance payments to the Customer (e.g. purchase on account or installment payment), he assigns his payment claim to PayPal or to the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal and specifically named to the Customer. Before accepting the Seller's declaration of assignment, PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal carries out a credit check using the customer data transmitted. The Seller reserves the right to refuse the selected payment method to the Customer in the event of a negative credit check result. If the selected payment method is approved, the Customer must pay the invoice amount within the agreed payment period or in the agreed payment intervals. In this case, he can only pay to PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal with debt-discharging effect. However, even in the event of an assignment of receivables, the Seller remains responsible for general customer inquiries, e.g. regarding goods, delivery time, dispatch, returns, complaints, declarations of withdrawal and shipments or credits.

4.5 If the "Sofortüberweisung" payment method is selected, payment processing is carried out by Klarna Bank AB (publ), Sveavägen 46, 11134 Stockholm, Sweden (hereinafter "Klarna"). In order to be able to pay the invoice amount via "Sofortüberweisung", the Customer must have an online banking account activated for participation in "Sofortüberweisung", identify himself accordingly during the payment process and confirm the payment instruction. The payment transaction is then carried out immediately by Klarna and the Customer's bank account is debited. Further information on the "Sofortüberweisung" payment method can be found on the Internet at https://www.klarna.com/sofort/.

4.6 If a payment method offered via the "Shopify Payments" payment service is selected, payment processing is carried out by the payment service provider Stripe Payments Europe Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland (hereinafter "Stripe"). The individual payment methods offered via Shopify Payments will be communicated to the Customer in the Seller's online shop. Stripe may use other payment services for payment processing, for which special payment conditions may apply, which the Customer may be informed of separately. Further information on "Shopify Payments" can be found online at https://www.shopify.com/legal/terms-payments-de.

4.7 If the credit card payment method via Stripe is selected, the invoice amount is due immediately upon conclusion of the contract. Payment processing is carried out by the payment service provider Stripe Payments Europe Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland (hereinafter: "Stripe"). Stripe reserves the right to carry out a credit check and to reject this payment method if the credit check is negative.

5) Delivery and Shipping Conditions

5.1 If the Seller offers shipping of the goods, delivery will be made within the delivery area specified by the Seller to the delivery address specified by the Customer, unless otherwise agreed. The delivery address specified in the Seller's order processing is decisive for the processing of the transaction.

5.2 If the delivery of the goods fails for reasons for which the Customer is responsible, the Customer shall bear the reasonable costs incurred by the Seller as a result. This does not apply to the costs of dispatch if the Customer effectively exercises his right of withdrawal. For the return costs, in the event of an effective exercise of the right of withdrawal by the Customer, the provision made in the Seller's cancellation policy applies.

5.3 If the Customer acts as an entrepreneur, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold goods passes to the Customer as soon as the Seller has delivered the item to the forwarder, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment. If the Customer acts as a consumer, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold goods generally only passes with the handover of the goods to the Customer or a person authorized to receive them. Deviating from this, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold goods also passes to the Customer in the case of consumers as soon as the Seller has delivered the item to the forwarder, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment, if the Customer has commissioned the forwarder, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment and the Seller has not previously named this person or institution to the Customer.

5.4 The Seller reserves the right to withdraw from the contract in the event of incorrect or improper self-delivery. This only applies if the non-delivery is not attributable to the Seller and the Seller has concluded a specific hedging transaction with the supplier with due diligence. The Seller will make all reasonable efforts to procure the goods. In the event of non-availability or only partial availability of the goods, the Customer will be informed immediately and the consideration will be refunded immediately.

5.5 Self-collection is not possible for logistical reasons.

6) Retention of Title

If the Seller makes advance payments, he retains title to the delivered goods until full payment of the purchase price owed.

7) Liability for Defects (Warranty)

Unless otherwise stated in the following provisions, the provisions of statutory liability for defects apply. Deviating from this, the following applies to contracts for the delivery of goods:

7.1 If the Customer acts as an entrepreneur,

  • the Seller has the choice of the type of supplementary performance;
  • the limitation period for claims for defects for new goods is one year from delivery of the goods;
  • claims for defects for used goods are excluded;
  • the limitation period does not begin anew if a replacement delivery is made within the framework of liability for defects.

7.2 The limitations of liability and reductions of deadlines regulated above do not apply

  • to claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses by the Customer,
  • in the event that the Seller has fraudulently concealed the defect,
  • for goods that have been used for a building in accordance with their usual use and have caused its defectiveness,
  • for any existing obligation of the Seller to provide updates for digital products, in contracts for the delivery of goods with digital elements.

7.3 Furthermore, for entrepreneurs, the statutory limitation periods for any existing statutory right of recourse remain unaffected.

7.4 If the Customer acts as a merchant within the meaning of Section 1 HGB, he is subject to the commercial duty to inspect and give notice of defects in accordance with Section 377 HGB. If the Customer fails to comply with the notification obligations regulated therein, the goods are deemed to have been approved.

7.5 If the Customer acts as a consumer, he is asked to complain about delivered goods with obvious transport damage to the delivery agent and to inform the Seller thereof. If the Customer fails to do so, this has no effect on his statutory or contractual claims for defects.

8) Liability

The Seller is liable to the Customer for all contractual, quasi-contractual and statutory, and also tortious claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses as follows:

8.1 The Seller is liable without limitation on any legal grounds

  • in the event of intent or gross negligence,
  • in the event of intentional or negligent injury to life, limb or health,
  • on the basis of a guarantee promise, unless otherwise regulated in this regard,
  • due to mandatory liability such as under the Product Liability Act.

8.2 If the Seller negligently breaches an essential contractual obligation, liability is limited to the contractually typical, foreseeable damage, unless liability is unlimited in accordance with the preceding paragraph. Essential contractual obligations are obligations that the contract imposes on the Seller according to its content to achieve the purpose of the contract, the fulfillment of which makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on whose compliance the Customer can regularly rely.

8.3 Otherwise, liability of the Seller is excluded.

8.4 The above liability regulations also apply with regard to the Seller's liability for its vicarious agents and legal representatives.

9) Special Conditions for the Processing of Goods According to Specific Customer Requirements

9.1 If, according to the content of the contract, the Seller owes the processing of the goods according to specific customer requirements in addition to the delivery of the goods, the Customer must provide the Seller with all content required for the processing, such as texts, images or graphics, in the file formats, formatting, image and file sizes specified by the Seller and grant him the necessary rights of use for this. The Customer is solely responsible for procuring and acquiring the rights to this content. The Customer declares and assumes responsibility that he has the right to use the content provided to the Seller. In particular, he ensures that no third-party rights are infringed thereby, in particular copyrights, trademark rights and personal rights.

9.2 The Customer shall indemnify the Seller against claims by third parties that these third parties may assert against the Seller in connection with an infringement of their rights by the Seller's contractual use of the Customer's content. The Customer shall also bear the necessary costs of legal defense, including all court and attorney's fees in the statutory amount. This does not apply if the Customer is not responsible for the infringement. In the event of a claim by a third party, the Customer is obliged to immediately, truthfully and completely provide the Seller with all information necessary for the examination of the claims and for a defense.

9.3 The Seller reserves the right to reject processing orders if the content provided by the Customer for this purpose violates legal or official prohibitions or public morality. This applies in particular to the provision of unconstitutional, racist, xenophobic, discriminatory, offensive, youth-endangering and/or violence-glorifying content.

10) Special conditions for assembly/installation services

If, according to the content of the contract, the Seller owes, in addition to the delivery of goods, also the assembly or installation of the goods at the Customer's premises as well as, if applicable, corresponding preparatory measures (e.g. measurement), the following shall apply:

10.1 The Seller shall provide his services, at his discretion, in person or through qualified personnel selected by him. The Seller may also use the services of third parties (subcontractors) who act on his behalf. Unless otherwise stated in the Seller's service description, the Customer has no right to select a specific person to carry out the desired service.

10.2 The Customer must provide the Seller with all information required for the provision of the owed service completely and truthfully, unless the procurement of such information falls within the Seller's duties according to the content of the contract.

10.3 After conclusion of the contract, the Seller will contact the Customer to arrange a date for the owed service. The Customer shall ensure that the Seller or the personnel commissioned by him have access to the Customer's relevant facilities on the agreed date.

10.4 The risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold goods shall only pass to the Customer upon completion of the assembly work and handover to the Customer.

11) Redemption of promotional vouchers

11.1 Vouchers issued by the Seller free of charge as part of promotional campaigns with a specific validity period and which cannot be purchased by the Customer (hereinafter "promotional vouchers") can only be redeemed in the Seller's online shop and only within the specified period.

11.2 Individual products may be excluded from the voucher campaign, provided that a corresponding restriction results from the content of the promotional voucher.

11.3 Promotional vouchers can only be redeemed before the order process is completed. Subsequent crediting is not possible.

11.4 Only one promotional voucher can be redeemed per order.

11.5 The value of the goods must at least correspond to the amount of the promotional voucher. Any remaining credit will not be refunded by the Seller.

13) Applicable law

All legal relationships between the parties shall be governed by the law of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the laws on the international purchase of movable goods. For consumers, this choice of law applies only to the extent that the protection granted by mandatory provisions of the law of the state in which the consumer has his habitual residence is not withdrawn.

14) Alternative dispute resolution

The Seller is neither obliged nor willing to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.
