Terms of Service

§ 1 Basic Provisions

(1) The following terms and conditions apply to all contracts that you conclude with us as a supplier (Kerber & Lampe GmbH) via the www.kela-schutzmasken.de website. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of your own terms and conditions, if applicable, is contradicted.

(2) A consumer within the meaning of the following regulations is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that can predominantly neither be attributed to their commercial nor their independent professional activity. An entrepreneur is any natural or legal person or a legal partnership who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in their independent professional or commercial activity.

§ 2 Conclusion of the contract

(1) Subject of the contract is the sale of goods.

(2) As soon as the respective product is posted on our website, we are submitting a binding offer to conclude a contract under the conditions specified in the item description. 

(3) The contract is concluded via the online shopping cart system as follows:
Die zum Kauf beabsichtigten Waren werden im “Warenkorb” abgelegt. Über die entsprechende Schaltfläche in der Navigationsleiste können Sie den “Warenkorb” aufrufen und dort jederzeit Änderungen vornehmen.
Nach Aufrufen der Seite “Kasse” und der Eingabe der persönlichen Daten sowie der Zahlungs- und Versandbedingungen werden abschließend nochmals alle Bestelldaten auf der Bestellübersichtsseite angezeigt.
If you use an instant payment system (e.g. PayPal / PayPal Express, Amazon Payments, Postpay, Sofort) as a payment method, you will either be taken to the order overview page in our online shop or you will first be taken to the website of the provider of the instant payment system forwarded.
If you are forwarded to the respective instant payment system, make the appropriate selection or enter your data there. You will then be directed back to the order overview page in our online shop.
Vor Absenden der Bestellung haben Sie die Möglichkeit, hier sämtliche Angaben nochmals zu überprüfen, zu ändern (auch über die Funktion „zurück” des Internetbrowsers) bzw. den Kauf abzubrechen.
Mit dem Absenden der Bestellung über die Schaltfläche “zahlungspflichtig bestellen” erklären Sie rechtsverbindlich die Annahme des Angebotes. Sie erhalten eine Bestellbestätigung. Mit anschließender, weiterer Auftragsbestätigung in gesonderter Nachricht durch uns kommt der Vertrag zustande. Die Bestätigung des Auftragseingangs durch die Bestellbestätigung stellt dabei noch keine Annahme des Vertragsangebots dar.

(4) Your inquiries to prepare an offer are non-binding for you. We will make you a binding offer in text form (e.g. by email), which you can accept within 5 days.

(5) The processing of the order and the transmission of all information required in connection with the conclusion of the contract is partly automated by e-mail. You must therefore ensure that the e-mail address you have stored with us is correct, that the receipt of e-mails is technically ensured and, in particular, is not prevented by SPAM filters.

§ 3 right of retention, Retention of title

(1) You can only exercise a right of retention if it concerns claims from the same contractual relationship.

(2)  The goods remain our property until the purchase price has been paid in full.

(3)  If you are an entrepreneur, the following also applies:

a) We reserve title to the goods until all claims from the current business relationship have been settled in full. Prior to the transfer of ownership of the goods subject to retention of title, pledging or security transfer is not permitted.

b) You can resell the goods in the ordinary course of business. In this case, you assign to us all claims in the amount of the invoice amount that accrue to you from the resale, we accept the assignment. You are further authorized to collect the claim. However, if you fail to properly meet your payment obligations, we reserve the right to collect the claim ourselves.

c) When combining and mixing the reserved goods, we acquire co-ownership of the new item in the ratio of the invoice value of the reserved goods to the other processed items at the time of processing.

d) We undertake to release the securities to which we are entitled at your request insofar as 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 incumbent on us.

§ 4 Warranty

(1) The statutory warranty rights apply.

(2) As a consumer, you are requested to check the item for completeness, obvious defects and transport damage immediately upon delivery and to notify us and the freight forwarder of any complaints as soon as possible. If you fail to do so, this has no effect on your statutory warranty claims.

(3) If you are an entrepreneur, the following applies in deviation from the above warranty regulations:

a)  Only our own information and, in the case of merchandise, the manufacturer's product description are deemed to be agreed as the quality of the item, but not other advertising, public promotions and statements by the manufacturer.

b)  In the event of defects, we guarantee, at our option, either repair or subsequent delivery. If the elimination of the defect fails, you can either request a reduction in price or withdraw from the contract. The rectification of defects is deemed to have failed after an unsuccessful second attempt, unless something else results in particular from the nature of the item or the defect or the other circumstances. In the case of repairs, we do not have to bear the increased costs that arise from the shipment of the goods to a location other than the place of performance, provided that the shipment does not correspond to the intended use of the goods.

c)  The warranty period is one year from date of delivery. The shortening of the deadline does not apply:

• for culpably caused damage attributable to us from injury to life, body or health and in the case of other damage caused intentionally or through gross negligence;
• insofar as we have fraudulently concealed the defect or have given a guarantee for the quality of the item;
• in the case of things that have been used for a building in accordance with their normal use and have caused its defectiveness;
• in the case of legal recourse claims that you have against us in connection with warranty rights.

§ 5 Choice of law, place of performance, place of jurisdiction

(1)  German law applies. In the case of consumers, this choice of law only applies insofar as this does not remove the protection granted by mandatory provisions of the law of the state in which the consumer is habitually resident (favourability principle).

(2)  The place of performance for all services from the business relationships with us and the place of jurisdiction is our registered office, provided you are not a consumer but a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law. The same applies if you do not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany or the EU or if your place of residence or habitual abode is not known at the time the action is brought. The authority to appeal to the court at another legal place of jurisdiction remains unaffected.

(3)  The provisions of the UN sales law expressly do not apply.
