The scope of performance of the services offered and the amount of compensation and the mode of payment can be derived from the information on the homepage of avedition GmbH in conjunction with the descriptions of the respective object of the contract in these terms and conditions. The information about the goods and prices given in the course of the order process is not binding. Acceptance of the customer order is given by notification of delivery or the delivery of the goods.
3.2. The customer checks the confirmation for obvious spelling or calculation errors and variances between the order, confirmation and delivery. The customer is obligated to inform us of any such inconsistencies immediately. If the customer or we demand a reversed transaction, the customer may not open the goods further. Otherwise, he will have to indemnify the impairment in value caused as a result.

5. General terms of payment
5.1. The goods delivered remain our property until they have been paid in full.
5.2. We can only accept the modes of payment offered in the order process. If a direct debit is returned or not honoured, the customer herewith irrevocably authorises his bank to give us his name and current address.
5.3. If the customer is in arrears with his payment despite reminder and fixing of a due date, we are entitled to charge interest on arrears of 5% above the base interest rate of the European Central Bank unless the damage is evidenced to be lower.
6. Warranty and liability

If we fail to do so, the customer is entitled to reverse the purchase or reduce the purchase price. The period of warranty is 3 months.
6.2. We assume liability for culpable damage from the infringement of major contractual obligations (cardinal duties) or if the goods fail to conform with warranted quality. Above and beyond that, we are only liable - whatever the legal cause - under the product liability law or if the damage was caused by us or our vicarious agents due to gross negligence or wilful intent.
6.3. In the case of an infringement of a significant contractual duty due to ordinary negligence, our liability is limited to the typically foreseeable damage; as a rule will not exceed the purchase price of the ordered goods. For all damage caused by ordinary negligence, liability is limited to the damage to the ordered goods.

The data required to process the transaction will be saved and, if necessary, passed on to related parties and service providers in the course of order processing. For the purpose of credit checking and status inquiries and also for marketing purposes, we exchange data with related parties and inquiry agencies.

If the customer objects within the period allowed, avedition GmbH is entitled to cancel the agreement at the point in time when the amended conditions should apply.
10. Invalid contractual provisions
Should a contractual provision or a provision in the general terms and conditions be or become wholly or partially invalid, this shall not otherwise affect the validity of the contract or the general terms and conditions. The invalid provision shall be replaced by a legally valid condition which comes closest to the purpose of the provision. This applies by analogy for a gap in the provisions.
