General Terms and Conditions – NovaNox GmbH & Co. KG
(1) The following terms and conditions apply to contracts that you conclude with us as the provider (NovaNox GmbH & Co. KG) via the website www.novanox.eu or through other means of distance communication, unless a written amendment is agreed between the parties. Deviating or conflicting terms and conditions are only effective with our express consent.
(2) We offer our products for purchase only if you are a natural or legal person or a legally capable partnership acting in the exercise of your commercial or self-employed professional activity at the time of concluding the legal transaction (entrepreneur). Conclusion of contracts with consumers is excluded.
(1) The subject matter of the contract is the sale of goods. The essential characteristics of the goods are described in the respective offer.
(2) Our offers on the internet are non-binding and do not constitute a binding offer to conclude a contract.
(3) You may send us inquiries regarding the purchase of our goods or the preparation of an offer via the inquiry and contact forms integrated on our website or via other means of distance communication (e.g. by telephone or e-mail). Your inquiries are non-binding for you.
We will submit to you a binding offer in text form (e.g. by e-mail), which you may accept within 5 days (unless a different deadline is specified in the respective offer).
(4) You may also submit a binding contractual offer (order) by means of distance communication.
Acceptance of the offer (and thus conclusion of the contract) for orders placed by telephone takes place immediately or at the latest within 5 days by confirmation in text form, in which the execution of the order or delivery of the goods is confirmed to you (order confirmation).
Should you not receive such a message within this period, you are no longer bound by your order. Any services already rendered will be reimbursed immediately in such a case.
(5) The processing of the order and the transmission of all information required in connection with the conclusion of the contract is carried out by e-mail, in part in an automated manner. You must therefore ensure that the e-mail address you have provided to us is correct, that receipt of e-mails is technically ensured and, in particular, is not prevented by spam filters.
(1) You shall provide us with the suitable information, texts or files required for the individual design of the goods with your inquiry or at the latest promptly after conclusion of the contract by e-mail or via another individually agreed means of communication. Any specifications we may have regarding file formats must be observed.
(2) You undertake not to transmit any data whose content infringes the rights of third parties (in particular copyright, name rights, trademark rights) or violates existing laws. You expressly indemnify us against all claims of third parties asserted in this context. This also covers the costs of legal representation required in this connection.
(3) We do not review the transmitted data for factual accuracy and assume no liability for errors in this regard.
(4) Where indicated in the respective offer, we will send you a proof copy for your review, which you must check promptly. If you agree with the draft, you release the proof copy for execution by countersigning it in text form (e.g. by e-mail).

You are responsible for checking the proof copy for accuracy and completeness and for notifying us of any errors. We accept no liability for errors that have not been reported.
(1) Texts, images, graphics, designs or other works created by us are subject to copyright protection.

(1) The prices stated in the respective offers and the shipping costs are net prices. They do not include statutory value added tax.
(2) The applicable shipping costs are not included in the purchase price; they are charged separately unless free shipping has been agreed. Further details can be found in the respective offer.
For self-collection, we will inform you by telephone or e-mail about the availability of the goods and the collection options. In this case, no shipping costs will be charged.
(3) For deliveries to countries outside the European Union, additional costs may arise that are beyond our control, such as customs duties, taxes or money transfer fees (transfer or exchange rate fees charged by credit institutions), which are to be borne by you.
(4) Costs incurred for money transfers (transfer or exchange rate fees charged by credit institutions) are also to be borne by you in cases where delivery is made to an EU member state but payment was initiated from outside the European Union.

(1) The estimated delivery period is specified in the respective offer. Delivery dates and delivery periods are only binding if confirmed by us in writing. For the payment method of advance payment by bank transfer, the goods will not be dispatched until the full purchase price and shipping costs have been received by us.
(2) Should a product you have ordered be unexpectedly unavailable despite the timely conclusion of an adequate cover transaction for reasons beyond our control, we reserve the right to withdraw from the contract. We will inform you immediately of the unavailability of the product and, in the event of withdrawal, promptly reimburse any payments already made by you.

If you fail to give the notification stipulated therein, the goods shall be deemed to have been approved, unless the defect was not recognizable during the inspection. This does not apply if we fraudulently concealed the defect.
(2) The warranty period is one year from delivery of the goods. The reduction in the limitation period does not apply:
(3) Only our own statements and the manufacturer's product description are deemed agreed as the condition of the item – not other advertising, public promotions or statements by the manufacturer.

If the remedy of the defect fails, you may, at your discretion, demand a reduction in price or withdraw from the contract. The remedy shall be deemed to have failed after the second unsuccessful attempt, unless the nature of the item or the defect or other circumstances indicate otherwise. In the case of repair, we are not obliged to bear the increased costs arising from the transportation of the goods to a location other than the place of performance, unless such transportation corresponds to the intended use of the goods.
(5) For contracts for work and services, the following applies in deviation from the above warranty provisions:

In this case, you hereby assign to us all claims in the amount of the invoice amount arising from the resale, and we accept such assignment. You remain authorized to collect the claim. However, if you fail to meet your payment obligations properly, we reserve the right to collect the claim ourselves.
(5) In the event of the combination or mixing of the reserved goods, we shall acquire co-ownership of the new item in proportion to the invoice value of the reserved goods relative to the other processed items at the time of processing.
(6) We undertake to release the securities to which you are entitled at your request to the extent that the realizable value of our securities exceeds the claim to be secured by more than 10%. The selection of the securities to be released is at our discretion.
