A. General Terms and Conditions of Business (B2C)
1. AREA OF APPLICATION
(1) These Terms and Conditions of Business of ETERNA mode GmbH (hereinafter referred to as ETERNA) apply to all contracts entered into by a consumer (hereinafter referred to as Customer) with ETERNA pertaining to goods displayed in its online shop.
(2) ETERNA´S Terms and Conditions of Business apply exclusively. The Customer´s deviating, cont-radictory or supplementary General Terms and Conditions of Business only become part of the contract if ETERNA has expressly consented to their validity. This requirement for consent applies in every case, also and in particular if ETERNA, being aware of the Customer´s General Terms and Con-ditions of Business, makes deliveries to the Customer without reservation.
(3) Consumer is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that predominantly can neither be attributed to his/her commercial activity nor to his/her self-employed activity (Article 13 BGB German Civil Code). Entrepreneur is a natural person or a legal entity or a business partnership having a legal capacity, which acts in the course of its commercial or self-employed activity in conclu-ding the legal transaction (Article 14 BGB).
2. CONCLUSION OF CONTRACT
(1) The Customer can select from the range of ETERNA products and collect them in a virtual shopping basket by clicking the IN THE BASKET button. By clicking the BUY NOW button, the Customer places a binding order for the goods contained in the shopping basket. Before sending the order, the Customer can modify and view the data at any time, enabling them to recognise and correct any errors in their entries before placing the order. The order can only be placed and transmitted, however, if the Customer accepts these General Terms and Conditions of Business and adopts them into their order by clicking the button labelled I accept the General Terms and Conditions of Business and Data Protection Regulations.
(2) ETERNA shall confirm receipt of the order immediately by email. This confirmation of receipt of the order still does not represent a binding acceptance of the order and contains the contract text, these General Terms and Conditions of Business, the revocation instructions and the sample revocation form, plus the customer information.
(3) The purchase contract comes into force only through the transmission of a confirmation of order by ETERNA at least in text form (e.g. email). The Customer must ensure that the email address specified by them for the order completion is correct, so that he can receive emails sent by ETERNA to this address. In particular, the Customer must ensure if he uses spam filters that all emails sent by ETERNA or by third parties assigned by ETERNA to complete the order can be delivered.
3. GOODS AVAILABILITY
ETERNA makes sure that the indicated quantities correspond to the actual stock. However, in excepti-onal circumstances beyond our control (e.g. goods out of stock), deviations may occur. In these excep-tional cases the following applies:
(1) If the product selected by the Customer is not available at the time of ordering, ETERNA shall inform the Customer of this fact immediately in the confirmation of order. If the product is permanently unavailable, ETERNA shall refrain from declaring acceptance. A contract does not come into force in this case.
(2) If the product designated by the Customer in the order is only temporarily unavailable, then ETERNA shall likewise inform the Customer of this fact immediately in the confirmation of order. In the case of a delivery delay exceeding two weeks, the Customer has the right to withdraw from the contract. ETERNA is also entitled in this case to release itself from the contract.
