1.4 Our products are for consumers in the context of §13 BGB and entrepreneurs. An entrepreneur in the sense of these GTC is a natural or legal person or a legal partnership which carries out commercial or independent professional activities upon entering into a legal transaction.

2.2 You can order products by telephone, email or post.
2.3 The presentation of goods on our website does not constitute a binding application to conclude a purchase contract. The presentation is, however, a non-binding invitation to order goods.
2.4 KnobiVital may accept your order within 5 days by sending a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or email) whereby the receipt of the order confirmation by you is decisive, or by delivering the goods you have ordered whereby the receipt of the goods by you is decisive in this respect, or by requesting payment from you for such goods.

The period of acceptance of the order shall commence the day after you send the order and shall expire at the end of the fifth day following the sending of the order. Should KnobiVital fail to accept the order from you within the aforementioned period, the order will be considered as declined, and you are therefore no longer bound by your declaration of intent.

3.1 If you are a Customer in the sense of § 13 BGB (German Civil Code), you may cancel your contractual acceptance in text form (e.g. post, email or fax) within 14 days following receipt of the goods, without providing the reason for such cancellation. The cancellation period is 14 days from the date on which you, or a third party designated by you who is not the carrier, took possession of the goods (in the case of a regular delivery of goods over a specified period of time, from the date on which you or a third party designated by you who is not the carrier, took possession of the goods).

of your decision to cancel this contract with a clear statement (e.g. via a letter sent by post, fax or email). You can also optionally use the template cancellation form.
To comply with the cancellation period, simply send your notification regarding your right of cancellation prior to the expiry of the cancellation period.
3.2 If you cancel this contract, we shall immediately refund all payments received from you, including delivery costs (with the exception of the additional costs arising from your choice to use a mode of delivery other than the cheapest standard delivery offered by us), and no later than within 14 days from the date on which we received notification of your cancellation of this contract. We will issue your refund via the same payment method you used in the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you. Under no circumstances will the refund incur any additional fees.
We may refuse to issue a refund until we have received the returned goods, or until you have provided proof that you have returned the goods, whichever is the earlier date. You must return or surrender the goods to us immediately and, in any case, no later than 14 days from the date on which you notified us of the cancellation of this contract. You have fulfilled this deadline if you dispatched the goods before the expiry of a period of 14 days. You shall bear the direct costs of returning the goods.
You will only be required to pay for any loss in value of the goods if such loss is the result of handling that was not necessary for inspecting the nature, properties and functionality of the goods.
3.3 In accordance with § 312g para 2 sentence 1 no. 2 and 3 BGB (German Civil Code), the right of withdrawal is excluded for contracts for the delivery of goods that are subject to rapid deterioration, or which are not suitable to return to safeguard human health, or for reasons of hygiene if the seal on such goods was broken or removed after delivery.
If you wish to cancel the contract, please complete this form and return it to us.

5.7 If the Customer is an entrepreneur, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall only be transferred to the Customer when KnobiVital has delivered the items to the carrier, the freight forwarder or the person or establishment responsible for the shipment of such. If the Customer is a consumer, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall only essentially be transferred when the goods are delivered to the Customer or a person authorised to receive them. Alternatively, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold and also with respect to consumers, shall only be transferred to the Customer when KnobiVital has delivered the goods to the carrier, freight forwarder or other person or establishment designated to carry out the shipment and KnobiVital has not previously named this person or establishment to the Customer.
5.8 Customers may also collect their orders from the KnobiVital factory outlet during the following opening times:
Monday to Thursday: 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
Friday: 8:00 am - 2:00 pm
6.1 With respect to consumers, KnobiVital shall retain ownership of the goods delivered until the full payment of the purchase price.
6.2 With respect to entrepreneurs, KnobiVital shall retain ownership of the goods delivered until the all receivables arising from an ongoing business relationship are settled in full.
6.3 If the Customer is an entrepreneur, he is entitled to resell the reserved goods in the ordinary course of business. The Customer shall assign to KnobiVital all receivables arising with respect to third parties in the amount of the respective invoice value (including VAT). This assignment shall apply regardless of whether the reserved goods were resold without or after processing. The Customer remains authorised to collect the receivables even after assignment. KnobiVital's authority to collect the receivables itself shall remain unaffected. However, KnobiVital will not collect receivables if the Customer meets his payment obligations with respect to KnobiVital, does not fall into arrears and no application to open insolvency proceedings has been filed.
6.4 With respect to entrepreneurs, we shall release the securities to which we are entitled on request insofar as the realisable value of our securities exceeds the receivables to be secured by over 10%. We shall be liable for selecting the securities to be released.
7.1 Unless otherwise expressly agreed, your warranty claims are based on the statutory provisions of the law on sales (§§ 433 et seq. BGB (German Civil Code)). If the purchased item is defective, the provisions of the statutory liability for defects shall apply.
7.2 If you order as a consumer, please file a complaint to the delivery agent should the goods delivered exhibit obvious transport damage, and notify KnobiVital of such complaint. Failure to do so will not affect your statutory or contractual claims for defects.
7.3 Alternatively, if the Customer is an entrepreneur, KnobiVital shall, at its discretion, select the type of supplementary performance.
7.4 The limitation period for defects is one year from the transfer of risk. The limitation period shall not be reset if a replacement delivery is made within the scope of the liability for defects.
7.5 In addition, the statutory limitation periods for the right of recourse for entrepreneurs pursuant to § 478 BGB (German Civil Code) shall remain unaffected.
7.6 If the Customer is a trader within the meaning of § 1 HGB (German Commercial Code), the commercial duty to examine and the requirement to give notice of defects shall apply pursuant to § 377 HGB. Should the Customer fail to comply with the notification requirements stipulated therein, the goods shall be considered accepted.
KnobiVital shall hold you harmless from all contractual, quasi-contractual, legal and tortious claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses as follows:
8.1 KnobiVital shall assume full liability,
on any legal grounds,
in the event of intent or gross negligence and wilful or negligent injury to life, limb or health arising from mandatory liability,
e.g. under the Product Liability Act.
8.2 Should KnobiVital negligently violate an essential contractual obligation, liability shall be limited to the foreseeable damage that is typical for this type of contract, unless unlimited liability exists in accordance with the paragraph above. Essential contractual obligations are obligations imposed on KnobiVital under the contract in terms of its content to achieve the purpose of the contract, the fulfilment of which enables the correct execution of the contract in the first place and on whose observance you can routinely rely.
8.3 The above stipulations of liability also apply to the vicarious agents and legal representatives of KnobiVital.
9.1 Vouchers with a specific period of validity issued free of charge by KnobiVital as part of a promotion and which cannot be purchased by you (hereinafter "Promotional Vouchers") may only be redeemed directly from KnobiVital and only during the validity period specified.
9.2 Individual products may be excluded from the voucher promotion if a corresponding restriction applies to the content of the voucher.
9.3 Promotional vouchers may only be redeemed prior to the conclusion of the order process. Subsequent offsetting is not possible.
9.4 Only one promotional voucher can be redeemed per order.
9.5 The value of the goods purchased must at least correspond to the amount of the promotional voucher.
9.6 If the value of the promotional voucher is not sufficient to cover the order, one of the other payment methods provided by KnobiVital may be selected to pay the difference.
9.7 The credit granted through a promotional voucher will be neither paid out in cash nor accrue interest.
9.8 The promotional voucher will not be refunded if you return the goods paid for in full or in part with the promotional voucher within the scope of your statutory right of withdrawal.
10.1 Should you have any queries, complaints or claims, please contact our customer service department as follows: Monday to Thursday from 8:00 am - 5:00 pm and Friday from 8:00 am - 2:00 pm by telephone +49 (0)7528 20 6000 and email: info@knobivital.de.
11.1 The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies to all legal relationships between the parties to the exclusion of the provisions of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG "UN Sales Law"). For consumers, this choice of law only applies insofar as the protection granted is not removed by mandatory provisions of the state in which the consumer has his habitual residence.
11.2 If you are a trader, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, our place of business shall be the place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with any contracts concluded between you and us.
12.1 The European Commission has provided a platform for online dispute resolutions (ODR), which you can view here: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/. We are not obliged to participate in a dispute settlement procedure before a consumer arbitration board.
12.2 Should one or more provisions of this GTC be or become ineffective, the effectiveness of the other provisions will remain unchanged.
