General Terms and Conditions (AGB)

Please note: The following is an English translation of our General Terms and Conditions for convenience only. In accordance with §10, the contract language is exclusively German, and only the German version is legally binding.

§1 Scope of Application and Definitions

(1) The following General Terms and Conditions apply to all contracts for the delivery of goods as well as the provision of digital content (hereinafter "Software") concluded between us and a consumer in the version valid at the time of the order.

A consumer is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly outside their trade, business, or profession (§ 13 BGB).

§2 Conclusion of a Contract, Storage of Contract Text

(1) The following provisions regarding the conclusion of a contract apply to orders placed via our online shop https://oswald-lauer.de.

(2) In the event of the conclusion of a contract, the contract is made with
Oswald´s Bricks
Oswald Lauer
Zum Sattelwald 13
D-66701 Beckingen
Germany.

(3) The presentation of goods in our online shop does not constitute a legally binding contract offer on our part, but merely a non-binding invitation to the consumer to order goods. By ordering the desired goods, the consumer makes a binding offer to conclude a purchase contract.

(4) Upon receipt of an order in our online shop, the following rules apply: The consumer makes a binding contract offer by successfully completing the order procedure provided in our online shop.

The order involves the following steps:

• 1) Selection of the desired goods
• 2) Confirmation by clicking the "Add to Cart" buttons
• 3) Checking the details in the shopping cart
• 4) Clicking the "PROCEED TO CHECKOUT" or "CHECKOUT" button
• 5) Entering the billing/delivery address or optional login to the online shop after registration and entering the login details (e-mail address and password).
• 6) Re-checking or correcting the entered data.
• 7) Binding submission of the order by clicking the "Buy Now" or "Proceed to PayPal" button.

Before the binding submission of the order, the consumer can return to the website where their details are recorded to correct input errors or cancel the order process by closing the internet browser by using the "Back" button contained in the internet browser they are using. We immediately confirm receipt of the order by an automatically generated email (Order Confirmation). This does not yet constitute acceptance of the offer. The acceptance of the offer is made in writing, in text form, by sending the ordered goods within one week or, in the case of software, by making it available for download.

(5) Storage of the contract text for orders via our online shop: We store the contract text and send you the order data and our Terms and Conditions via email. You can view the Terms and Conditions at any time at https://oswald-lauer.de/de/agb. You can view your past orders in our customer area under My Account -> Orders.

§3 Prices, Shipping Costs, Payment, Maturity

(1) The stated prices include the statutory value-added tax and other price components. Any shipping costs are added.

(2) The consumer has the option of payment by advance payment, PayPal, or credit card (Visa).

(3) If the consumer has chosen advance payment, they undertake to pay the purchase price immediately after the conclusion of the contract.

§4 Delivery and Provision

(1) Unless we have clearly stated otherwise in the product description, all goods offered by us are ready for immediate dispatch. Delivery occurs here within 5 working days at the latest. The deadline for delivery begins in the case of payment in advance on the day after the payment order to the bank instructed with the transfer and for all other payment methods on the day after the conclusion of the contract. If the deadline falls on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday at the place of delivery, the deadline ends on the next working day.

(2) The risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold item passes to the buyer only upon handover of the item to the buyer, even in the case of sale by delivery to a place other than the place of performance.

(3) For the provision of software: The software 'blapi' is provided digitally by sending a download link to the email address specified by the customer. The email with the download link is sent immediately after the conclusion of the contract or receipt of payment.

§5 Retention of Title

We retain title to the goods until the purchase price has been paid in full. For software, the right of use is only granted upon full payment.

§6 Right of Withdrawal for Consumers

Right of withdrawal for consumers

Consumers are entitled to a right of withdrawal under the following conditions, whereby a consumer is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that can predominantly be attributed neither to their commercial nor their independent professional activity:

Cancellation Policy

Right of withdrawal

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within thirty days without giving any reason.

The withdrawal period is thirty days. In the case of a purchase contract, the period begins on the day on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, has taken possession of the goods. In the case of a contract for digital content not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. software), the period begins on the day the contract is concluded.

To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (Oswald´s Bricks, Oswald Lauer, Zum Sattelwald 13, 66701 Beckingen, Germany, Tel.: +49 68 35 / 60 13 93, Fax: +49 68 35 / 6 76 88, E-Mail: info@oswald-lauer.de) of your decision to withdraw from this contract by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post or an e-mail). You may use the attached model withdrawal form, but it is not obligatory.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

Consequences of withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (with the exception of the supplementary costs resulting from your choice of a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us), without undue delay and in any event not later than fourteen days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.

We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

In the case of contracts for the supply of goods, we may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to us, without undue delay and in any event not later than fourteen days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of fourteen days has expired.

You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.

You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

Premature Expiration of the Right of Withdrawal

For digital content: Your right of withdrawal expires prematurely in the case of a contract for the supply of digital content not supplied on a tangible medium (such as the "blapi" software) if you have expressly agreed before the order that we shall begin with the execution of the contract before the expiration of the withdrawal period, and you have at the same time confirmed your knowledge that you will lose your right of withdrawal with your consent to the beginning of the execution of the contract.

For custom-made goods: According to § 312g para. 2 no. 1 BGB, the right of withdrawal does not apply to contracts for the supply of goods that are not prefabricated and the production of which is governed by an individual choice of or decision by the consumer, or which are clearly tailored to personal needs of the consumer.
