4. A consumer within the meaning of these terms and conditions 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 (Section 13 of the German Civil Code - BGB). An entrepreneur is any person who, when concluding the contract, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity (Section 14 of the German Civil Code - BGB).

5. Conflicting or supplementary terms and conditions of the buyer shall not become part of the contract unless we expressly consent to their validity in text form.

§ 2Formation of the contract

1. The display of the books and Michl boxes on our pages is not a binding offer, but an invitation for you to place an order.

2. The order process consists of three steps:

   • You select the desired items and their quantity.
   • You provide your billing address and, if applicable, a different delivery address.
   • In the „Review“ step, you will see all your details and the total price once again. Using the „Change“ button, you can return to any step right up to the end and correct your entries.

3. By clicking the „Buy Now“ button, you are making a binding offer to conclude a purchase agreement for the items in the shopping cart.

4. We will confirm receipt of your order promptly by email. This confirmation of receipt does not yet constitute acceptance of your offer.

5. The contract is concluded when we accept your order within five business days by means of an explicit order confirmation in text form or by dispatching the ordered goods. If we do not accept your offer within this period, it shall be deemed rejected; you are then no longer bound by your order.

6. We reserve the right to refuse an order, especially if an item is no longer available. In this case, we will notify you immediately and promptly refund any payments already made.

§ 3Prices and shipping costs

1. All stated prices are final prices and include statutory VAT. The prices shown on the order page at the time of your order apply.

2. Within Germany we deliver free of charge. There are no further delivery or shipping costs.

3. For deliveries outside of Germany, we will inform you of the applicable shipping costs separately before the conclusion of the contract. Any customs duties, import VAT, or other fees incurred in the destination country shall be borne by you.

Section 4Delivery

1. We deliver to the shipping address you provided. Delivery to packing stations is not possible.

2. We will provide the estimated delivery date in the order confirmation. Unless specified otherwise there, we deliver within 14 days of conclusion of the contract.

3. If a reserved item is temporarily unavailable, we will notify you immediately. If the delivery is delayed by more than two weeks, you may withdraw from the contract; we may also do so and will immediately refund any payments already made.

4. Partial deliveries are permissible insofar as they are reasonable for you. This will not result in any additional shipping costs for you.

§ 5Payment

1. Payment is made on account. You will receive the invoice with the delivery or separately by email.

2. The invoice amount is due for payment within 14 days of the invoice date without deduction.

3. If you default on payment, the statutory regulations apply. We reserve the right to withhold further deliveries until all outstanding invoices have been paid.

4. You are only entitled to set off claims to the extent that your counter-claim has been legally established, is undisputed, has been acknowledged by us, or arises from the same contractual relationship.

§ 6Retention of title

1. The delivered goods remain our property until full payment has been received.

2. Against entrepreneurs, we reserve ownership until all claims from the ongoing business relationship have been settled.

§ 7Right of withdrawal for consumers

1. If you are a consumer, you have a statutory right of withdrawal. The following cancellation policy applies. You will also find it on the page Cancellation policy and in the email with which we confirm receipt of your order.

2. The right of withdrawal does not apply to contracts with businesses.

The Sample cancellation form is available on the page for copying or printing.

§ 8Liability for defects

1. The statutory provisions apply to defects in the delivered goods. For consumers, claims for defects shall become time-barred two years from the delivery of the goods.

2. The limitation period for claims for defects against entrepreneurs is one year from delivery. The statutory limitation periods for recourse claims pursuant to Section 445b of the German Civil Code (BGB) as well as claims based on fraudulently concealed defects shall remain unaffected.

3. Please report transport damage to us as soon as possible. Your statutory rights do not depend on this, but it allows us to assert the claim against the shipping service provider.

Section 9Liability

1. We shall be liable without limitation for damages resulting from injury to life, body, or health, for intent and gross negligence, in the event of fraudulent concealment of a defect, to the extent of a-assumed guarantee, and in accordance with the Product Liability Act.

2. In the event of a simple negligent breach of an obligation whose fulfillment makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on whose compliance you may regularly rely, our liability is limited to the damage typical for the contract and foreseeable at the time of conclusion of the contract.

3. Furthermore, our liability is excluded.

4. The content of our books and Michl boxes is intended for professional training and further education. It neither replaces a medical evaluation nor professional responsibility in individual cases.

Section 10contract text, contract language

1. We store the contract text and will send you the order data as well as these terms and conditions by email. You can view and print the text of these terms and conditions on this page at any time.

2. The contract shall be concluded in the German language.

3. How we handle your information is stated in the Privacy Policy.

Section 11Dispute resolution

1. We are neither obliged nor willing to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.

2. In case of complaints, please contact us directly: phone 09621 1838, email info@praeparatio.com. We strive for a straightforward solution.

§ 12Final provisions

1. German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If you are a consumer, this choice of law only applies to the extent that it does not deprive you of the protection afforded by the mandatory provisions of the country in which you have your habitual residence.

2. If you are a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law, or if you do not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany, Amberg shall be the place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from the contractual relationship.

3. If any provision of these terms is invalid, the remainder of the contract shall remain in effect. The invalid provision shall be replaced by statutory regulations.
