1. Scope of application
The following General Terms and Conditions (GTC) apply to all orders placed via our online shop by consumers and entrepreneurs and form part of any contract concluded.
A consumer is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that predominantly cannot be attributed to their commercial or independent professional activities (§ 13 German Civil Code – BGB).
An entrepreneur is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when entering into a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity (§ 14 BGB).
The following applies to entrepreneurs: If the entrepreneur uses conflicting or supplementary General Terms and Conditions, their validity is hereby rejected; they only become part of the contract if we have expressly agreed to them in writing.
2. Contractual partners, conclusion of contract, correction options
The purchase contract is concluded with:
Classen Online GmbH
Werner-von-Siemens-Str. 18–20
56759 Kaisersesch

The presentation of the products in the online shop does not constitute a legally binding offer but a non-binding online catalogue. You may place our products in the shopping cart without obligation and correct your entries at any time before submitting your binding order by using the correction tools provided and explained during the order process. By clicking the order button, you submit a binding offer/order for the products contained in the shopping cart. Confirmation of receipt of your order is sent immediately via email after submission.
Acceptance of your offer/order occurs within two working days either by us issuing a declaration of acceptance in a separate email or, if applicable, by the payment transaction being executed by our service provider or the selected payment service provider. The moment of execution of the payment transaction depends on the selected payment method (see “Payment”).
The applicable alternative depends on which of the aforementioned events occurs first.

We store the contract text and send you the order details and our GTC in text form. You can view the contract text in our customer login area.

6. Payment

PayPal may offer additional payment options to registered PayPal customers selected according to its own criteria. We have no influence on the offering of such options; any additionally offered payment modalities concern your legal relationship with PayPal. Further information can be found in your PayPal account.
7. Right of withdrawal
Consumers are entitled to the statutory right of withdrawal as described in the withdrawal policy. Sending the withdrawal notice in time is sufficient to meet the deadline. Entrepreneurs are not granted a voluntary right of withdrawal.
8. Retention of title
The product remains the property of Classen Online GmbH, Werner-von-Siemens-Str. 18–20, 56759 Kaisersesch, until full payment has been made.
The following additionally applies to entrepreneurs:
We retain ownership of the purchased item until all claims arising from an ongoing business relationship have been fully settled.
Goods subject to retention of title may be resold in the ordinary course of business. Claims arising from such resale are assigned to us in advance, irrespective of any combination or mixing of the goods subject to retention of title with other items. We hereby declare acceptance of the assignment in the amount of the invoice value of the purchased item.
9. Transport damage
The following applies to consumers:
If goods are delivered with obvious transport damage, please report such defects to the delivery agent as soon as possible and contact us immediately. Failure to follow this procedure does not affect your statutory rights, in particular your warranty rights. However, your cooperation helps us assert any claims against the carrier or transport insurance.
For merchants, the following applies:
Statutory obligations regarding inspection and notification of defects remain unaffected.
10. Warranty, guarantees, liability
10.1 Warranty rights
The statutory warranty rights of the Federal Republic of Germany apply.
10.2 Guarantees and additional information
Any additional guarantees that may apply and their precise terms can be found in the respective product description and on the special information pages in the online shop. Unless expressly described as a guarantee, product descriptions constitute mere statements of product properties.
10.3 Liability
A.
We are generally liable only for intent and gross negligence; in cases of simple negligence, liability is limited to foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract. Statutory product liability and liability for injury to life, limb, or health remain unaffected.
B. Force Majeure
We are not liable in cases of force majeure. This includes all unforeseeable events as well as events which—if foreseeable—are beyond the control of the parties. These include in particular, but not exclusively:
Natural disasters such as floods, storm surges, hurricanes and typhoons, other catastrophic weather events, earthquakes, lightning strikes, avalanches and landslides, fires, epidemics, pandemics, infectious diseases (provided such an event has been declared by the WHO or a ministry, or the Robert Koch Institute has established a hazard level of at least “moderate”), war or war-like conditions, riots, revolution, military or civil coups, uprisings, blockades, governmental orders, strikes, lockouts.
If such a force majeure event occurs, the affected contractual partner must inform the other party without delay, at the latest within 14 days of becoming aware of the event, in text form, regarding the occurrence and its impact on contractual performance.
We are entitled to extend delivery dates and deadlines depending on the scope and duration of the force majeure event, without granting the buyer any right to withdraw from the contract or claim damages. We will not be in default during the justified extension period.
Both parties are obliged to take all reasonable measures to mitigate damages.
If the interruption due to force majeure lasts longer than two calendar months, we are entitled to terminate the contract wholly or partly without the buyer being entitled to compensation.
11. Dispute resolution
Participation in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board is not legally mandatory. We therefore declare that we will not participate in such a procedure.
12. Final provisions
If you are an entrepreneur, German law shall apply under exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).
If you are a merchant within the meaning of the German Commercial Code (HGB), a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from contractual relationships between you and us shall be our place of business.
Should individual provisions of these GTC be wholly or partially invalid, the remaining parts of the contract shall remain valid. Insofar as individual provisions are invalid, the content of the contract shall be governed by statutory law.
