9. Warranty / Updates

1. The delivered goods may differ slightly from the goods shown on the internet within reason. Reference is made to point 2.1, sentence 2 of these general terms and conditions.

 

2. Consumers have the choice of whether subsequent performance should be carried out by means of repairs or a replacement delivery. The seller is entitled to refuse the type of supplementary performance chosen if it is only possible with disproportionate costs and the other type of supplementary performance remains without significant disadvantages for the consumer. In the case of entrepreneurs, the seller initially provides a guarantee for defects in the goods by means of subsequent improvement or replacement delivery.

 

3. If the supplementary performance fails, the customer can demand a reduction in payment (reduction) or cancellation of the contract (withdrawal) as well as damages. Instead of compensation for damages instead of performance, the customer can demand reimbursement of futile expenses within the scope of § 284 BGB, which he made in reliance on receiving the goods and was reasonably allowed to make. If the defects are only insignificant, the customer has no right of withdrawal - taking into account the interests of both parties. If the customer chooses damages instead of performance, the limitations of liability according to point 10.1 of these General Terms and Conditions apply.

 

4. Entrepreneurs must notify the seller of obvious defects in the delivered goods within a period of two weeks from receipt of the goods; Otherwise the assertion of warranty claims is excluded. Timely notification or dispatch is sufficient to meet the deadline. The entrepreneur bears the full burden of proof for all prerequisites for a claim, in particular for the defect itself, for the time the defect was discovered and for the timeliness of the notice of defects. § 377 HGB applies to merchants.

 

5. Consumers are asked to notify the supplier (forwarding agent/freight service) of obvious damage to the packaging and damage to the content resulting therefrom, to refuse acceptance and to inform the seller immediately of this incident. However, failure to comply with this request has no consequences for the consumer's warranty claim and does not entail any claims for damages on the part of the seller. The limitation periods are also not shortened by the aforementioned request.

 

6. In the case of entrepreneurs, only the manufacturer's product description is deemed to be agreed as the quality of the goods. Public statements, praise or advertising by the manufacturer do not represent the contractual quality of the goods.

 

7. For consumers, the warranty period is one year from delivery of the goods. 

In the event of a breach of the updating obligation pursuant to 9.9. of this contract, the warranty period shall not end before the expiry of twelve months after the end of the period of the updating obligation. If a defect has become apparent within the limitation period, the limitation period shall not commence before the expiry of four months after the time at which the defect first became apparent. For entrepreneurs, the warranty period is one year from delivery of the goods. In the case of used items, the warranty period for consumers and entrepreneurs is one year from delivery of the goods.

The one-year warranty period does not apply if the seller can be accused of gross negligence or fraudulent intent, nor in the case of bodily injury or damage to health attributable to the seller, or in the event of loss of life of the customer, or in the case of a guarantee. The seller's liability under the Product Liability Act remains unaffected.

 

8. The seller does not give the customer any guarantees in the legal sense, unless expressly agreed otherwise. Manufacturer guarantees remain unaffected.

 

9. Insofar as a contract is concluded for goods which contain digital elements (in particular table tennis robot Amicus Prime SKU 8001160000), the relevant period for the intended update obligation owed by the Seller for the robot control software on the control tablet, as well as the robot firmware, shall be 5 years from delivery of the goods (provision period). There is no obligation to permanently provide updates for the digital elements of the respective goods.

The update obligation extends to updates for function, security and compatibility. An update obligation of the Seller for the operating system of the supplied tablet (Android) does not exist.

To the extent necessary to maintain the contractual condition of the product, the Seller shall provide the relevant updates in the aforementioned period and inform the Seller thereof. Insofar as these updates affect the security and/or the function of the devices, the customer shall be obliged to cooperate in the installation of the relevant update.

 

10. Limitations of Liability

1. In the case of slightly negligent breaches of duty, liability is limited to the foreseeable, contract-typical, direct average damage depending on the type of goods. This also applies to slightly negligent breaches of duty by the seller's legal representatives or vicarious agents. The seller is not liable for slightly negligent violation of insignificant contractual obligations. The seller, on the other hand, is liable for the violation of contractual legal positions of the customer. Significant contractual legal positions are those that the contract has to grant to the customer according to the content and purpose of the contract. The seller is also liable for the breach of obligations, the fulfillment of which is essential for the proper execution of the contract and on the observance of which the customer can rely.

The above limitations of liability do not affect customer claims arising from guarantees and/or product liability. Furthermore, the limitations of liability do not apply in the case of fraudulent intent, breach of essential contractual obligations and damage to body and health attributable to the seller or loss of life of the customer.

 

2. The seller is only liable for its own content on the website of its online shop. Insofar as links allow access to other websites, the seller is not responsible for the external content contained there. The seller does not adopt the third-party content as its own. If the seller becomes aware of illegal content on external websites, the seller will immediately block access to these pages, provided this is technically possible.

 

11. Alternative Dispute Resolution

1. The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution (OS), which you can find at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/main/.

12. Final Provisions

1. The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies to the exclusion of the UN Sales Convention. For consumers who do not conclude the contract for professional or commercial purposes, this choice of law only applies insofar as the protection granted by mandatory provisions of the law of the state in which the consumer has his habitual residence is not withdrawn.

 

2. If the customer is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract is the court responsible for the seller's place of business, unless an exclusive place of jurisdiction is given. However, the seller is also entitled to sue the merchant at his place of residence or place of business.
