Deviation or complementing conditions shall only become valid if the provider acknowledges these contents in written form signed by both parties.
- 2 Conclusion of contract outside the shop
The client can place its order through different communication channels (e.g. Email, phone). Price quotes by the sales representatives are a non-binding solicitation of an order by the client, which the provider can accept. Any client order will be registered in the shop system without further required permission by the client. Thereafter, an automatically generated order confirmation will be sent which is not a legally binding declaration. The contract becomes valid with the sending of the payment (pre-payment) or sending of the goods or providing of the service (post-payment).

The client has only the following options for payment: pre-payment. Other payment methods are not available.

In the case of Force Majeure or operating failures occurring at the provider and/or a supplier which impede the provider without any fault on his behalf to deliver on the agreed date, the agreed delivery dates shall be extended accordingly. In the case of a delivery delay of more than two months, the provider and the client may both rescind from the contract by way of written declaration. Other rights of rescission shall remain unaffected. Any liability for delays in delivery is excluded for a delivery delay attributable to the provider.

All disclosures of ingredients will only be made with an additional written confidentiality contract upon client request.
- 10 Retention of title
Until reception of full payment the goods remain the property of the provider. In case of default, the provider is entitled, upon expiry of an appropriate deadline, to take back the goods subject to retention of title and to sell the goods on the free market. After deducting an appropriate amount for sale costs, the proceeds of the sale shall be offset with the receivables due by the client.

- 13 Severability
