1. Scope
1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "GTC") of "Kontra GmbH" (hereinafter referred to as "Seller") apply to all contracts concluded between a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter referred to as "Customer") and the Seller regarding the goods offered by the Seller in its online shop. The inclusion of the Customer's own terms and conditions is hereby rejected, unless otherwise agreed.
1.2 These terms and conditions apply accordingly to the purchase of vouchers, unless and to the extent that expressly otherwise stipulated.
1.3 A consumer is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither attributable to their commercial nor their independent professional activity.
1.4 An entrepreneur is a natural or legal person or a legally capable partnership that, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of its commercial or independent professional activity.
2. Conclusion of the contract
2.1 The presentation of goods, especially in the online shop, does not yet constitute a binding offer from the seller.
2.2 First, the customer places the selected goods in the shopping cart. In the next step, the ordering process begins, in which all necessary data for order processing is collected.
At the end of the ordering process, a summary of the order and contract details appears.
Only after confirming these order and contract details by clicking on the button that completes the order process does the customer submit a binding offer to purchase the goods contained in the shopping cart.
2.3 The seller accepts the customer's offer through the following possible alternatives:
- Sending a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or email)
or
- Request for payment to the customer after placing the order
or
- Delivery of the ordered goods
The decisive factor for the time of acceptance is the first alternative that has occurred.
The period for accepting the offer begins on the day after the customer sends the offer and ends at the close of the fifth day following the sending of the offer. If the seller does not accept the customer's offer within the aforementioned period, this constitutes a rejection of the offer. The customer is then no longer bound by their declaration of intent.
2.4 If the customer selects "PayPal" or "PayPal Express" as the payment method for their purchase, they submit their offer by clicking the button that completes the order process. If the customer simultaneously issues a payment order to PayPal by clicking this button, the seller, deviating from the above provisions, declares acceptance of the customer's offer at the time the payment order is issued.
2.5 If the customer selects "Amazon Payments" as the payment method for their purchase, they submit their offer by clicking the button that completes the order process. If the customer simultaneously issues a payment order to Amazon by clicking this button, the seller, deviating from the above provisions, declares acceptance of the customer's offer at the time the payment order is issued.
2.6 The seller stores the contract text of each contract concluded between the seller and the customer. The customer can view the General Terms and Conditions at any time on this page. The order details, the cancellation policy, and the General Terms and Conditions will be sent to the customer by email. After the order has been completed, the contract text is no longer accessible online to the customer.
2.7 All entered information is displayed before clicking the order button and can be viewed by the customer before submitting the order. Corrections can be made by using the browser's back button or standard mouse and keyboard functions. Additionally, if available, the customer has access to correction buttons, which are labeled accordingly.
2.8 The contract language is German.
2.9 It is the customer's responsibility to provide a correct email address for contact and order processing, and to set the filter functions so that emails relating to this order can be delivered.
2.10 If the purchase agreement concerns alcoholic beverages, the customer must ensure that he or an authorized adult is permitted to receive the goods. Furthermore, by submitting his order, the customer declares that he has reached the legal minimum age required for the purchase of alcoholic beverages.
3. Prices and payment terms
3.1 The prices shown are final prices unless otherwise agreed.
If the goods are subject to differential taxation in accordance with Section 25a of the German VAT Act (UStG), VAT will not be shown.
If additional shipping costs apply, this will be indicated in the product description.
3.2 If delivery is made to a non-EU country, the customer may be required to pay additional customs duties, taxes or fees to the relevant customs or tax authorities or credit institutions in that country.
The customer is advised to inquire about the details with the relevant institutions or authorities before placing an order.
3.3 The customer can select the payment methods available in the online shop.
3.4 In the case of advance payment by bank transfer, payment is due immediately after conclusion of the contract, unless otherwise agreed.
3.5 When paying via "PayPal", payment processing is handled by PayPal (Europe) S.à rl et Cie, SCA, 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg. PayPal's terms of use apply. These can be viewed at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full .
3.6 When paying via "PayPal Direct Debit," PayPal will collect the amount due from the customer's bank account on behalf of the seller after a SEPA Direct Debit mandate has been issued and the pre-notification period has expired. Pre-notification is the seller's notification to the customer that their account will be debited via SEPA Direct Debit and can be provided, for example, in the form of an invoice or contract. If the direct debit cannot be honored due to insufficient funds or incorrect bank details, or if the customer objects to the debit without justification, the customer is liable for any fees incurred by the respective bank for the chargeback, provided the customer is at fault. The remaining contractual relationship, as well as the rights and obligations of both the customer and the seller, remain unaffected by payment via direct debit.
3.7 When paying by invoice via "PayPal Invoice", payment processing is handled by PayPal.
The purchase price is due upon delivery of the goods and must be paid to PayPal within 30 days of receipt of the invoice, unless a different payment term is specified.
Purchasing on account requires a successful credit check by PayPal.
If the customer is granted the option to purchase on account after a credit check, the seller assigns their claim to PayPal; therefore, payment can only be made to PayPal with legally binding effect.
The remaining contractual relationship as well as the rights and obligations towards the seller and the seller remain unaffected by this payment method.
Furthermore, the general terms and conditions for using PayPal's invoice payment service apply: https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/pui-terms .
3.8 When paying via "SOFORT," payment processing is handled by the payment service provider SOFORT GmbH, Theresienhöhe 12, 80339 Munich (hereinafter "SOFORT"). To use this payment method, the customer needs an online banking account with PIN/TAN authentication enabled for participation in "SOFORT." This account allows the customer to authenticate themselves during the payment process and confirm the payment instruction to "SOFORT." The payment is processed by "SOFORT" immediately after completion of the payment process, and the customer's bank account is debited. Further information on the "SOFORT" payment method can be found online at https://www.klarna.com/sofort/ .
4. Delivery and shipping conditions
4.1 Goods are delivered by mail to the delivery address specified by the customer. However, if payment is made via PayPal, the delivery address registered with PayPal by the customer at the time of payment shall apply.
4.2 If the seller incurs additional costs due to the provision of an incorrect delivery address or recipient, or other circumstances that render delivery impossible, these costs shall be borne by the customer, unless the customer is not responsible for the incorrect information or the impossibility of delivery. The same applies if the customer was temporarily prevented from accepting delivery, unless the seller had given the customer reasonable prior notice of the delivery. This provision does not apply to the costs of the initial shipment if the customer has effectively exercised their right of withdrawal. In this case, the statutory regulations or the seller's own regulations shall apply.
4.3 If self-collection has been agreed upon, the seller will inform the customer that the ordered goods are ready for collection. After receiving this email, the customer can collect the goods by prior arrangement with the seller at the seller's premises or at an agreed location. In this case, no shipping costs will be incurred.

6. Retention of title
If the seller makes advance payment, the goods remain the property of the seller until the purchase price has been paid in full.
7. Liability for Defects
7.1 Regarding warranty, the provisions of statutory liability for defects apply, unless otherwise agreed in these terms and conditions.
- For used goods, the warranty period, deviating from the statutory regulations, is one year from delivery of the goods. The shortened one-year warranty period does not apply.
- in the case of items which, according to their usual purpose, have been used for a building and have caused its defectiveness,
- damages caused by the seller's negligence resulting in injury to life, body or health, and damages caused by gross negligence or intent and
for other damages resulting from an intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty by the seller or from an intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty by a legal representative or vicarious agent of the user.
- in the event that the seller has fraudulently concealed the defect, as well as in the case of claims pursuant to Sections 478, 479 of the German Civil Code (BGB).
7.2 The customer is requested to report any delivered goods with obvious transport damage to the delivery person and to inform the seller accordingly. Failure to do so will not affect the customer's statutory or contractual warranty rights.
8. Redeeming gift vouchers
8.1 Vouchers purchased via the seller's online shop ("gift vouchers") can only be redeemed in the seller's online shop.
8.2 Gift vouchers and remaining balances on gift vouchers can be redeemed until the end of the third year following the year of purchase. Any remaining balances will be credited to the customer's voucher account until the expiry date.

8.7 Balances on gift vouchers will not be paid out and will not accrue interest.
8.8 The gift voucher is non-transferable and may only be redeemed by the person named on it. Transfer of the gift voucher to third parties is prohibited. The seller has the right, but not the obligation, to verify the voucher holder's eligibility.
9. Applicable Law
9.1 The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply, excluding the laws on the international sale of goods.
The statutory provisions regarding the restriction of the choice of law and the applicability of mandatory provisions, in particular those of the state in which the customer has his habitual residence as a consumer, remain unaffected.
9.2 This choice of law does not apply with regard to the statutory right of withdrawal for consumers if, at the time of conclusion of the contract, they are not resident in a Member State of the European Union and their sole residence and delivery address at the time of conclusion of the contract are outside the European Union.
10. Place of jurisdiction
If the customer is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law with its registered office in the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract is the seller's place of business.
If the customer is domiciled outside the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany, the seller's place of business shall be the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract, provided that this contract or claims arising from this contract can be attributed to the customer's professional or commercial activities.
