1) Scope

1.1 These Terms and Conditions of Normrahmen AG (hereinafter “Seller”) apply to all contracts concluded by a consumer or business (hereinafter “Customer”) with the Seller in respect of the goods and/or services presented by the Seller in its online shop. The inclusion of the Customer’s own terms and conditions is hereby rejected, unless otherwise agreed.

1.2 A consumer within the meaning of these General Terms and Conditions is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for a purpose that cannot be attributed to their commercial or self-employed professional activity. An entrepreneur within the meaning of these General Terms and Conditions is any natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when entering into a legal transaction, is acting in the course of their independent professional or commercial activity.

2) Conclusion of contract

2.1 The product descriptions contained in the Seller’s online shop do not constitute binding offers on the part of the Seller, but serve to enable the Customer to make a binding offer.

2.2 The Customer may submit the offer via the online order form integrated into the Seller’s online shop. After entering their personal details, the Customer submits a legally binding contractual offer in respect of the goods and/or services contained in the shopping basket by clicking the button that completes the ordering process.

2.3 The seller may accept the customer’s offer within five days,

  • by sending the customer a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or email), whereby the date of receipt of the order confirmation by the customer shall be decisive in this respect, or
  • by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, whereby the date of receipt of the goods by the customer shall be decisive, or
  • by prompting the customer to make a payment after they have placed their order.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives apply, the contract is concluded at the time when one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. If the seller does not accept the customer’s offer within the aforementioned period, this shall be deemed a rejection of the offer, with the consequence that the customer is no longer bound by their declaration of intent.

2.4 The period for accepting the offer begins on the day after the customer sends the offer and ends at the end of the fifth day following the sending of the offer.

2.5 When an offer is submitted via the Seller’s online order form, the contract text is stored by the Seller and sent to the Customer in text form (e.g. by email, fax or letter) together with these General Terms and Conditions after the Customer has submitted their order. In addition, the contract text is archived on the Seller’s website and can be accessed free of charge by the Customer via their password-protected customer account by entering the relevant login details, provided that the Customer has created a customer account in the Seller’s online shop prior to submitting their order.

2.6 Before submitting a binding order via the Seller’s online order form, the Customer may correct their entries at any time using the standard keyboard and mouse functions. Furthermore, all entries are displayed once more in a confirmation window before the order is submitted and may also be corrected there using the standard keyboard and mouse functions.

2.7 The German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.

2.8 Order processing and communication take place via email and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the email address provided for order processing is correct, so that emails sent by the seller can be received at this address. In particular, when using spam filters, the customer must ensure that all emails sent by the seller or by third parties commissioned by the seller to process the order can be delivered.

3) Right of withdrawal

Consumers are generally entitled to a right of withdrawal. Further information on the right of withdrawal can be found in the seller’s cancellation policy.

4) Prices and payment terms

4.1 The prices quoted by the Seller include statutory VAT and other price components. Any additional delivery and shipping costs incurred will be specified separately in the relevant product description.

4.2 The Customer has various payment methods available, which are specified in the Seller’s online shop.

4.3 If prepayment has been agreed, payment is due immediately upon conclusion of the contract.

5) Delivery and shipping terms

5.1 Goods are normally delivered by post to the delivery address provided by the customer. For the purposes of processing the transaction, the delivery address specified in the seller’s order processing system shall be decisive. Notwithstanding this, if PayPal is selected as the payment method, the delivery address provided by the customer to PayPal at the time of payment shall be decisive.

5.2 If the carrier returns the dispatched goods to the seller because delivery to the customer was not possible, the customer shall bear the costs of the unsuccessful delivery.

5.3 In principle, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold goods shall pass to the buyer upon dispatch of the goods or upon handover to the appointed carrier.

5.4 In the case of pickup by the customer, the seller shall first inform the customer by email that the ordered goods are ready for pickup. Upon receipt of this email, the customer may collect the goods by arrangement with the seller. In this case, no shipping fees will be incurred.

6) Liability for defects

The statutory liability for defects applies.

7) Applicable law, place of jurisdiction

7.1 If the customer is acting as a consumer, Swiss law shall apply to all legal relationships between the parties, to the exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, and the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract shall be the customer’s place of residence.

7.2 If the customer is acting as a business, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract shall be the seller’s place of residence or business.
