3.1

You may cancel your order within 14 days without stating any reasons. The cancellation period is 14 days from the day on which you or a third party authorized by you who is not the forwarder, receives the final delivery.

Unless otherwise agreed by both parties, the right to cancel does not apply to the following contracts: contracts for the delivery of goods that have not been ready-made and for the production of which an individual selection or instruction was given by the consumer, or custom-tailored goods.

To exercise your right to cancel your order, you must send a letter clearly stating your intent (e.g. by mail, by fax or via e-mail) to our address (sigikid, H. Scharrer & Koch GmbH & Co. KG, Am Wolfsgarten 8, 95511 Mistelbach, Germany, Phone +49 (0)9201 70-160, Fax +49 (0)9201 70-20, e-mail: kundenservice@sigikid.de).

We recommend to complete and to transfer electronically the sample cancellation form or another clearly worded statement of your intent to cancel your order via our website (e.g. for returning goods from within Germany free of charge use our returning form www.sigikid.de/en/return.) We will immediately send you a notification (e.g. via e-mail) confirming receipt of your cancellation notice.

To remain within the cancellation period, it is sufficient for you to send notice that you intend to exercise your right to cancel your order before the stated time elapses.

The purchase contract for the goods is concluded exclusively between you and us. The handling of the purchase contract is also determined by the agreements you make with us. In particular, we remain responsible for general customer enquiries (e.g. about goods, delivery time, dispatch), returns, complaints, warranty claims, any contract cancellations and credit notes. If you choose to purchase on account, these terms and conditions apply in addition to those agreements and the general terms and conditions that you agree with us as part of the purchase contract.

6.4.
We will assign our claim for payment of the purchase price against you to the bank in order to process a purchase on account. You are hereby informed of this assignment of claim.

Should any provision of these additional GTC be invalid, this shall not affect the validity of the other provisions of these GTC.

7. Delivery period

7.1
It takes 1-3 working days from receipt of order confirmation to deliver your goods; however, the delivery period does not begin until you have made any payments that are due.

7.2
Delivery dates are only binding if we have expressly confirmed these in writing. Labour disputes, government action, raw material shortages, traffic disruptions, unusual circumstances, etc. free us from the obligation to deliver for their duration or entirely if they lead to the impossibility of performance – regardless of whether they occurred at our or our suppliers' location. In this case we will immediately inform you of the unavailability and reimburse any funds you have already paid without delay.

7.3
Claims for damages due to late delivery or non-delivery are excluded unless they are based on intent or gross negligence. Liability for damages in case of slight negligence is limited to the foreseeable damage. Liability for unforeseeable damages requires proof of wilful or grossly negligent breach of contract. In any case, the amount of which is limited to the amount of the offer or invoice of the underlying delivery in question; for partial deliveries, the amount is limited to the current value.

We are entitled to claim damages including any additional expenses that are incurred if the customer delays acceptance or violates other obligations to cooperate. In this event, the responsibility for accidental loss or damage to the purchased goods is transferred to the customer for the period the customer delays acceptance.

10. Warranty

Unless otherwise regulated in clause 11 below, the statutory warranty regulations apply for claims related to defects.

11. Liability

11.1
We accept unlimited liability for intent and gross negligence. In the event of slight negligence, our liability is limited to foreseeable damages as is customary with an agreement of this type. We are not liable for breach of contractual secondary obligations related to slight negligence that are not part of the material secondary obligations.

11.2
This does not affect liability in case of fraudulent concealment of defects or in the event a quality guarantee is provided, nor does it change liability for claims based on product liability legislation [Produkthaftungsgesetz in Germany] or for injury to life, limb or health. This does not change the burden of proof to the detriment of the customer.

11.3
We are not liable for damages caused by improper treatment, handling and processing or due to normal wear and tear.

11.4
The customer must arrange an appointment and provide us with enough time and opportunity to be able to carry out improvements and make replacements.

11.6
Insofar as our liability is excluded or limited, this also applies to the personal liability of our staff, employees, workers, representatives and agents.

11.7
In the event we are liable for a breach of duty that justifies a claim for damages instead of performance within the meaning of Sections 281, 282, 284 of the German Civil Code [BGB – Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch] or payment to recover damages due to improper conduct, such claims are limited to no more than the agreed purchase price of the goods if the damage was caused by us, our management staff or our agents as a result of simple negligence.

11.8
The liability limitations in clause 11.7 do not apply if a cardinal obligation is violated or in case of bodily injury.

11.9
If we have the right to claim damages instead of performance, we can claim a lump sum of 20% of the agreed purchase price as damages without proof of actual damages.
