General Terms and Conditions and Customer Information
I. General Terms and Conditions
§ 1 Fundamental Provisions
(1) The following terms and conditions apply to contracts that you conclude with us as the provider (Martin Meng) via the website www.honorforgotten.com. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of any of your own terms and conditions is hereby objected to.
(2) A consumer within the meaning of the following provisions is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither commercial nor their independent professional activity. An entrepreneur is any natural or legal person or a legal partnership that, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their independent professional or commercial activity.
§ 2 Formation of the Contract
(1) The subject of the contract is the sale of goods.
(2) By publishing the respective product on our website, we make a binding offer to conclude a contract via the online shopping cart system under the conditions specified in the item description.
(3) The contract is concluded via the online shopping cart system as follows:
The goods intended for purchase are placed in the "shopping cart". You can access the "shopping cart" via the corresponding button in the navigation bar and make changes there at any time.
After clicking the "Checkout" or "Proceed to Order" button (or similar designation) and entering your personal data as well as the payment and shipping conditions, the order data will finally be displayed as an order overview.
If you use an instant payment system (e.g., PayPal (Express/Plus/Checkout), Amazon Pay, Sofort) as a payment method, you will either be directed to the order overview page in our online shop or to the website of the instant payment system provider.
If you are redirected to the respective instant payment system, you will make the corresponding selection or enter your data there. Finally, the order data will be displayed as an order overview on the website of the instant payment system provider or after you have been redirected back to our online shop.
Before submitting the order, you have the opportunity to review the information in the order overview again, change it (also by using the "back" function of the internet browser), or cancel the order.
By submitting the order via the corresponding button ("order with obligation to pay", "buy" / "buy now", "order subject to charge", "pay" / "pay now" or similar designation), you declare your legally binding acceptance of the offer, thereby concluding the contract.
(4) The processing of the order and the transmission of all information required in connection with the conclusion of the contract are partly automated by e-mail. You must therefore ensure that the e-mail address you have stored with us is correct, that the receipt of e-mails is technically ensured, and in particular that it is not prevented by SPAM filters.
§ 3 Special Agreements on Offered Payment Methods
(1) Payment via "PayPal" / "PayPal Checkout"
If a payment method offered via "PayPal" / "PayPal Checkout" is selected, the payment processing is carried out by the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. et Cie, S.C.A. (22-24 Boulevard Royal L-2449, Luxembourg; "PayPal"). The individual payment methods via "PayPal" are displayed to you under a correspondingly designated button on our website and during the online ordering process. "PayPal" may use other payment services for payment processing; if special payment conditions apply to these, you will be informed of them separately. Further information on "PayPal" can be found at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/legalhub-full (https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/legalhub-full).
(2) Payment via "Shopify Payments"
If a payment method offered via "Shopify Payments", the Shopify Payments service of Shopify International Limited (2nd Floor Victoria Buildings, 1-2 Haddington Road, Dublin 4, D04 XN32, Ireland), is selected, the payment processing is carried out by the payment service provider Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd. (1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland; "Stripe"). The individual payment methods via Shopify Payments are displayed to you under a correspondingly designated button on our website and during the online ordering process. Stripe may use other payment services for payment processing; if special payment conditions apply to these, you will be informed of them separately. Further information on Shopify Payments can be found at https://www.shopify.com/de/legal/terms-payments/de (https://www.shopify.com/de/legal/terms-payments/de).
§ 4 Right of Retention, Retention of Title
(1) You may only exercise a right of retention insofar as the claims result from the same contractual relationship.
(2) The goods remain our property until full payment of the purchase price.
§ 5 Warranty
(1) Statutory liability rights for defects exist.
(2) As a consumer, you are requested to immediately check the goods for completeness, obvious defects, and transport damage upon delivery and to notify us and the carrier of any complaints as soon as possible. Failure to do so will not affect your statutory warranty claims.
(3) Insofar as a characteristic of the goods deviates from the objective requirements, the deviation shall only be deemed agreed if you were informed of it by us before submitting the contractual declaration and the deviation was expressly and separately agreed upon between the contracting parties.
§ 6 Choice of Law
(1) German law applies. For consumers, this choice of law only applies insofar as the protection granted by mandatory provisions of the law of the state of the consumer's habitual residence is not withdrawn thereby (principle of favorability).
(2) The provisions of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods are expressly not applicable.
