General Terms and Conditions (GTC)

1. Scope

These General Terms and Conditions apply to all orders placed through our online shop.

A consumer is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither attributable to their commercial nor their independent professional activity.

An entrepreneur is a natural or legal person or a legal partnership who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.

With regard to entrepreneurs: conflicting or supplementary general terms and conditions shall not become part of the contract unless we expressly agree to their validity in writing.

2. Contractual Partner, Conclusion of Contract

The purchase contract is concluded with:

Global Ecom Trading GmbH
Gildestr. 16
48317 Drensteinfurt
Germany
Represented by the Managing Director: Senem Abid Ali

The presentation of products in the online shop does not constitute a legally binding offer but a non-binding online catalog.

You can initially place our products in the shopping cart without obligation and correct your entries at any time before submitting the order.

By clicking the order button, you submit a binding offer to purchase the goods contained in the shopping cart. Confirmation of receipt of your order is sent by email immediately after submitting the order.

The purchase contract is only concluded when we accept your offer through a declaration of acceptance in a separate email or by shipping the goods.

3. Contract Language and Storage of Contract Text

The language available for concluding the contract is German.

We store the contract text and send you the order data as well as these GTC in text form. If you have created a customer account, you can view your order data there.

4. Delivery Conditions

Delivery will be made to the shipping address you provided.

The delivery time is indicated in the respective product offer or during checkout.

If an item is exceptionally unavailable, we will inform you immediately.

We deliver using suitable shipping service providers.

Shipping to parcel lockers is possible provided that the necessary details are entered correctly.

If delivery is not possible due to an incorrectly provided address or an unjustified refusal to accept the shipment and additional costs arise as a result, we may pass these costs on to you unless you are not responsible for the circumstances.

5. Prices and Shipping Costs

All prices are final prices and include the statutory value-added tax.

In addition to the stated prices, shipping costs may apply. The exact shipping costs will be displayed during the order process.

6. Payment Conditions

The payment methods displayed during checkout are available in our shop. These may include in particular:

• Shopify Payments (e.g. credit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, where available)
• PayPal
• Klarna (e.g. invoice, direct debit or installment purchase, where available)

The charge is made immediately or according to the conditions of the respective payment service provider depending on the selected payment method.

If an external payment service provider is selected, its contractual and privacy conditions also apply.

7. Right of Withdrawal

Consumers are entitled to the statutory right of withdrawal. Details can be found in the separate withdrawal policy.

No voluntary right of withdrawal is granted to entrepreneurs.

8. Retention of Title

The goods remain our property until full payment has been made.

With regard to entrepreneurs: we retain ownership of the goods until all claims arising from an ongoing business relationship have been settled in full.

9. Warranty

The statutory liability for defects applies.

With regard to entrepreneurs, the warranty period for goods delivered by us is one year from the transfer of risk. The statutory limitation periods for the right of recourse pursuant to § 445a BGB remain unaffected.

10. Liability

We are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence as well as for culpable injury to life, body or health.

In the case of slightly negligent breaches of essential contractual obligations (cardinal obligations), our liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for the contract. Essential contractual obligations are those whose fulfillment makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on whose compliance the contractual partner may regularly rely.

Otherwise, liability is excluded.

The above limitations of liability also apply in favor of our legal representatives and vicarious agents.

11. Consumer Dispute Resolution

We are neither willing nor obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.

12. Final Provisions

German law applies to the exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

For consumers, 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 their habitual residence is not withdrawn.

If the customer is an entrepreneur, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from contractual relationships between us and the customer shall be our registered office, unless an exclusive statutory place of jurisdiction exists.

If individual provisions of these GTC are or become wholly or partially invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected.
