§2 Conclusion of the contract, conclusion of the contract

2.1 Our offer is binding. With your order you make a binding offer to us to conclude the contract with you. The contract is concluded when your order is sent to us. You will receive an order confirmation by e-mail.

2.2 Once you have found the desired product, you can view it in detail without obligation by clicking on the item photo or the item description. You can place the item in the shopping cart by clicking on the [Shopping Cart] button. You can view the contents of the shopping basket without obligation at any time by clicking on the button [shopping basket] or [checkout]. You can remove the products from the shopping basket by clicking on the red symbol for [Delete] and the green symbol for [Update]. If you want to buy the products in the shopping cart, click on the button [continue to step 2].

The ordering process comprises five steps. In the first step, you can once again view and edit the contents of the shopping basket. In the second step, you can optionally set up a customer account for your first purchase and enter your personal data and address here. If you already have a customer account, log in here under "I already have an account" with your login data. However, you also have the option of entering your data without it being permanently stored. Then select "Continue order without a personal account" and click on [continue to step 3]. In the third step, enter the billing address and, if applicable, the different shipping address. In the fourth step, select the payment method and shipping method. In the last step under "Send order" you will again receive an overview of your order data and can check, delete or change all details including the shipping address and billing address under [Change data]. You can also correct input errors by navigating backwards in the browser or by cancelling the order process and starting again. To complete your purchase, you must accept our General Terms and Conditions and click on the [Submit Order] button. This sends the order to us and the contract is concluded.

§3 Storage of the contract text

We save your order and the order data entered. We will send you an order confirmation by e-mail and then an order confirmation with all order data.

Cancellation policy

Right of withdrawal

You have the right to cancel this contract within fourteen days without giving any reason.

The cancellation period is fourteen days from the day on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, have taken or has taken possession of the goods. To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (hookahLove UG (haftungsbeschränkt); Managing Director: Maximilian Held, Gewerbestr. 4, D-86859 Igling, Tel.: 08191/220 00 03; e-mail: info@hookahLove.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter or e-mail sent by post) of your decision to withdraw from this contract.

To comply with the withdrawal period, it is sufficient that you send the notification of the exercise of the right of withdrawal before the expiry of the withdrawal period.

Consequences of revocation

If you withdraw from this contract, we must repay you all payments that we have received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of the additional costs resulting from the fact that you have chosen a type of delivery other than the cheapest standard delivery offered by us), without delay and at the latest within fourteen days from the day on which we received the notification of your withdrawal from this contract. For this repayment, we will use the same means of payment that you used for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; in no case will you be charged for this repayment.

We may refuse repayment until we have received the goods back or until you have provided proof that you have returned the goods, whichever is the earlier.

You must return or hand over the goods to us immediately and in any case no later than fourteen days from the day on which you notify us of the cancellation of this contract. The deadline is met if you send the goods before the end of the period of fourteen days. You shall bear the direct costs of returning the goods.

§9 Warranty

9.1 If you are a consumer and place an order with us for a purpose that cannot be attributed to your commercial or professional activity, the warranty shall be provided in accordance with the statutory provisions.

9.2 If you place your order with us as an entrepreneur, the following applies:

9.2.1 Delivered goods are to be inspected by the customer immediately - at the latest within 7 days - after delivery, insofar as this is feasible in the ordinary course of business. If a defect becomes apparent, we must be notified immediately. If the customer fails to notify us, the goods shall be deemed to have been approved, unless the defect was not recognisable during the inspection. If such a defect is discovered later, the notification must be made immediately after discovery, otherwise the goods shall be deemed to have been approved also in view of this defect. § Section 377 of the German Commercial Code (HGB) remains unaffected. The customer is not released from his obligation to inspect the goods even in the event of recourse by the entrepreneur pursuant to § 478 BGB. If in such cases he does not immediately report the defect asserted by his customer, the goods shall also be deemed to have been approved in view of this defect.

9.2.2 Insofar as there is a defect, we are entitled to determine the type of subsequent performance, taking into account the type of defect and the justified interests of the customer. Subsequent performance shall be deemed to have failed in these contracts after the third unsuccessful attempt. This clause does not apply in the case of recourse pursuant to § 478 BGB.

9.2.3 In the event of subsequent performance in the case of defects, we shall only be obliged to bear the expenses required for this, in particular transport, travel, labour and material costs, to the extent that these are not increased by the fact that the item was taken to a place other than the registered office or the commercial branch of the customer to which delivery was made. This clause shall not apply in the event of recourse pursuant to § 478 BGB.

9.2.4 The customer's claims for defects, including claims for damages, are subject to a limitation period of one year. This does not apply in the case of recourse according to § 478 BGB, this also does not apply in the cases of §§ 438 para. 1 no. 2 BGB as well as § 634a para. 1 no. 2 BGB. This also does not apply to claims for damages due to injury to life, body or health or due to a grossly negligent or intentional breach of duty by us or our vicarious agents.

§10 Liability for damages and reimbursement of expenses

10.1 If you are a consumer and place an order with us for a purpose that cannot be attributed to your commercial or professional activity, we shall be liable for damages in accordance with the statutory provisions.

10.2 If you place your order with us as an entrepreneur, the following shall apply in the event of our contractual liability for damages pursuant to sections 10.2 to 10.8:

10.2.1 If the claims are based on an intentional breach of duty by us, our representatives or our vicarious agents, we shall be liable for damages in accordance with the statutory provisions. If the claims are based on a grossly negligent breach of duty by us or our representatives or vicarious agents, liability shall be limited to the foreseeable, typically occurring damage.

10.2.2 Insofar as we or our representatives or vicarious agents have culpably breached an obligation, the fulfilment of which is a prerequisite for the proper execution of the contract, the breach of which jeopardises the achievement of the purpose of the contract and on the observance of which the customer regularly relies - and there is no case of liability under the statutory provisions - liability shall be limited to the foreseeable, typically occurring damage.

10.2.3 Unless otherwise stipulated in sections 10.2.1 and 10.2.2, our liability for damages is excluded. The same shall also apply insofar as recourse claims are asserted against us as suppliers pursuant to § 478 BGB.

10.3 The exclusions and limitations of liability under clause 10.2 shall also apply to other claims, in particular claims in tort or claims for reimbursement of futile expenses instead of performance.

10.4 The exclusions and limitations of liability under clause 10.2 do not apply to any existing claims pursuant to §§ 1, 4 of the Product Liability Act or due to culpable injury to life, limb or health. They also do not apply insofar as we have assumed a guarantee for the quality of our goods or a performance outcome or a procurement risk and the guarantee case has occurred or the procurement risk has materialised.

10.5 We shall only be liable from the assumption of a procurement risk if we have expressly assumed the procurement risk in writing.

10.6 Unless the limitation of liability pursuant to section 10.2 applies in the case of claims arising from producer's liability pursuant to § 823 BGB, our liability shall be limited to the compensation paid by the insurance company. Insofar as this does not occur or does not occur in full, we shall be liable up to the amount of the sum insured. This clause does not apply in the event of culpable injury to life, limb or health.

10.7 Insofar as our liability is excluded or limited, this shall also apply to the personal liability of our employees, workers, staff, representatives and vicarious agents.

10.8 A reversal of the burden of proof is not associated with the above provisions.

§12 Legal order, place of jurisdiction

12.1 German law shall apply to the exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

12.2 In the case of customers who conclude the contract for a purpose that cannot be attributed to professional or commercial activity (consumers), this choice of law shall not affect the mandatory provisions of the law of the state in which the customer has his habitual residence.

12.3 For all disputes arising from the contractual relationship, if the customer is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the place of jurisdiction shall be the registered office of our company in Landsberg am Lech.
