1. Area of application


1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "B2B GTC") of the company Reima AirConcept GmbH, trading as "Duftmarketing" (hereinafter referred to as "Seller") shall apply to all contracts concluded between a trader (hereinafter referred to as "Client") and the Seller relating to all goods and/or services presented in the Seller's online store. The inclusion of the customer's own terms and conditions is hereby rejected, unless otherwise agreed.

1.2 These B2B T&Cs also apply exclusively if the seller carries out the delivery to the customer without special reservation in the knowledge that the customer's terms and conditions conflict with or deviate from these terms and conditions.


1.3 An entrepreneur within the meaning of these B2B T&Cs is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, is acting in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.

2. Conclusion of contract


2.1 The product descriptions presented in the seller's online store do not constitute binding offers on the part of the seller, but serve to submit a binding offer by the customer.

2.2 The customer can submit the offer via the online order form integrated into the seller's online store. After placing the selected goods and/or services in the virtual shopping cart and going through the electronic ordering process, the customer submits a legally binding contractual offer with regard to the goods and/or services contained in the shopping cart by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process. Furthermore, the customer can also submit the offer to the seller by e-mail.

2.3 The seller can 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 e-mail), whereby the receipt of the order confirmation by the customer is decisive in this respect, or
  • by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, whereby the receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive in this respect, or
  • by requesting payment from the customer after the order has been placed, or
  • if payment by direct debit is offered and the customer opts for this payment method, by collecting the total price from the customer's bank account, whereby the time at which the customer's account is debited is decisive in this respect.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract is concluded at the point in time at which one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. The period for accepting the offer begins on the day after the offer is sent by the customer and ends at the end of the fifth day following the sending of the offer. 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 his declaration of intent.

2.4 When submitting an offer via the seller's online order form, the text of the contract is saved by the seller after the contract is concluded and sent to the customer in text form (e.g. email, fax or letter) after the customer's order has been sent. The seller will not make the text of the contract available beyond this. If the customer has set up a user account in the seller's online store before sending his order, the order data is archived on the seller's website and can be accessed free of charge by the customer via his password-protected user account by entering the corresponding login data.

2.5 Before submitting a binding order via the seller's online order form, the customer can recognize possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means of better recognizing input errors can be the browser's magnification function, which enlarges the display on the screen. Customers can correct their entries during the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until they click on the button that completes the ordering process.


2.6 Only the German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.


2.7 Order processing and contact are generally carried out by e-mail and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the e-mail address provided by him for order processing is correct so that the e-mails sent by the seller can be received at this address. In particular, when using SPAM filters, the customer must ensure that all e-mails sent by the seller or by third parties commissioned by the seller to process the order can be delivered.

2.8 If the parties have agreed special conditions, these shall not apply to current and future contractual relationships with the customer.

2.9 If the customer is economically unable to fulfill its obligations to the seller, the seller may terminate existing exchange contracts with the customer without notice by withdrawing from the contract. This shall also apply if the customer files for insolvency. § Section 321 BGB and Section 112 InsO remain unaffected. The customer shall inform the seller in good time in writing of any impending insolvency.

2.10. Our offers are aimed exclusively at customers who have reached the age of 18 and are to be regarded as entrepreneurs, e.g. industry, trade, crafts, commerce or public authorities. For the purposes of these General Terms and Conditions, an entrepreneur is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when entering into a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity in accordance with Section 14 of the German Civil Code (BGB).

3. Prices and terms of payment


3.1 Unless otherwise stated in the Seller's product description, the prices quoted are net prices and do not include statutory VAT. Packaging and shipping costs, loading, insurance (in particular transport insurance), customs duties and taxes may be charged separately.



3.2 For deliveries to countries outside the European Union, further costs may be incurred in individual cases for which the seller is not responsible and which are to be borne by the customer. These include, for example, costs for the transfer of money by credit institutions (e.g. transfer fees, exchange rate fees) or import duties or taxes (e.g. customs duties). Such costs may also be incurred in relation to the transfer of funds if the delivery is not made to a country outside the European Union but the customer makes the payment from a country outside the European Union.



3.3 Various payment options are available to the customer, which are indicated in the seller's online store.



3.4 If advance payment by bank transfer has been agreed, payment is due immediately after conclusion of the contract, unless the parties have agreed a later due date.



3.5 If the payment method delivery on account is selected, the purchase price is due after the goods have been delivered and invoiced.

3.6 If the payment method purchase on account is selected, the purchase price is due after the goods have been delivered and invoiced. In this case, the purchase price must be paid within 7 (seven) days of receipt of the invoice without deduction, unless otherwise agreed. The seller reserves the right to offer the payment method purchase on account only up to a certain order volume and to reject this payment method if the specified order volume is exceeded. In this case, the seller will inform the customer of a corresponding payment restriction in the payment information in the online store.



3.7 A payment is deemed to have been received as soon as the equivalent value has been credited to one of the seller's accounts. In the event of default in payment, the seller shall be entitled to default interest in the amount of 10 percentage points above the respective base interest rate. The seller's other statutory rights in the event of default in payment by the customer shall remain unaffected by this. If claims are overdue, incoming payments shall first be offset against any costs and interest and then against the oldest claim.



3.8 Should unforeseeable cost increases occur (e.g. currency fluctuations, unexpected price increases by suppliers, etc.), the Seller shall be entitled to pass on the price increase to the Customer. However, this shall only apply if the delivery is agreed to be made later than four months after the conclusion of the contract.

3.9 The Seller reserves the right to set a minimum order value for deliveries outside Germany. The amount of the minimum order value will be communicated to the customer separately in the seller's online store.


4. Delivery and shipping conditions


4.1 Unless otherwise agreed, the goods shall be shipped to the delivery address specified by the customer. The delivery address specified in the seller's order processing is decisive for the processing of the transaction.



4.2 In the case of goods delivered by a forwarding agent, delivery shall be "free kerbside", i.e. to the public kerbside nearest to the delivery address, unless otherwise stated in the shipping information in the seller's online store and unless otherwise agreed.



4.3 The Seller is entitled to make partial deliveries, insofar as this is reasonable for the Customer. In the case of permissible partial deliveries, the Seller is also entitled to issue partial invoices.

4.4 The Seller reserves the right to withdraw from the contract in the event of incorrect or improper self-delivery. This shall only apply in the event that the Seller is not responsible for the non-delivery and the Seller has concluded a specific covering transaction with the supplier with due care. The seller shall make every reasonable effort to procure the goods. In the event of non-availability or only partial availability of the goods, the customer shall be informed immediately and the consideration shall be reimbursed without delay.



4.5 The risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, carrier or other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment. This also applies if the seller bears the costs of transportation. Transport insurance shall only be taken out at the special request and for the account of the customer.



4.6 In the event that the dispatch of the goods to the customer is delayed for reasons for which the customer is responsible, the transfer of risk shall take place upon notification of readiness for dispatch to the customer. Any storage costs incurred after the transfer of risk shall be borne by the customer.

4.7 In the case of self-collection, the seller shall first inform the customer by e-mail that the goods ordered by him are ready for collection. After receiving this e-mail, the customer can collect the goods by arrangement with the seller. In this case, no shipping costs will be charged.


5. Höhere Gewalt


In the event of force majeure affecting the performance of the contract, the Seller shall be entitled to postpone the delivery for the duration of the hindrance and, in the event of longer-term delays, to withdraw from the contract in whole or in part, without any claims against the Seller being able to be derived from this. Force majeure shall be deemed to be all events that are unforeseeable for the Seller or events that - even if they were foreseeable - are beyond the Seller's control and whose effect on the fulfillment of the contract cannot be prevented by reasonable efforts on the part of the Seller. Any statutory claims of the customer remain unaffected.

6. Delay in performance at the request of the customer


If dispatch or delivery of the goods is delayed at the customer's request by more than one month after notification of readiness for dispatch, the customer may be charged a storage fee of 0.5% of the purchase price for each additional month or part thereof, up to a maximum of 5% of the purchase price. The contracting parties are at liberty to provide evidence of higher or lower damages.

7. Right of withdrawal


Entrepreneurs are not granted a voluntary right of withdrawal.


8. Retention of title


8.1 The Seller retains title to the delivered goods until the purchase price owed has been paid in full. Furthermore, the seller retains title to the delivered goods until all of its claims arising from the business relationship with the customer have been satisfied.



8.2 If the delivered goods are processed, the Seller shall be deemed to be the manufacturer and shall acquire ownership of the newly created goods. If the goods are processed together with other materials, the Seller shall acquire ownership in the ratio of the invoice value of its goods to that of the other materials. If, in the case of the combination or mixing of the seller's goods with an item belonging to the customer, the latter is to be regarded as the main item, co-ownership of the item shall be transferred to the seller in the ratio of the invoice value of the seller's goods to the invoice value or, in the absence of such, to the market value of the main item. In such cases, the customer shall be deemed to be the custodian.


8.3 The customer may neither pledge nor assign by way of security items subject to retention of title or reservation of rights. The customer shall only be permitted to resell the goods as a reseller in the ordinary course of business on condition that the customer has effectively assigned its claims against its buyers in connection with the resale to the seller and the customer transfers ownership to its buyer subject to payment. By concluding the contract, the customer assigns his claims in connection with such sales against his customers to the seller by way of security, who accepts this assignment at the same time.



8.4 The customer must immediately notify the seller of any access to the goods owned or co-owned by the seller or to the assigned claims. He shall immediately transfer to the Seller any amounts assigned to the Seller and collected by him, insofar as the Seller's claim is due.



8.5 If the value of the Seller's security interests exceeds the amount of the secured claims by more than 10%, the Seller shall release a corresponding proportion of the security interests at the Customer's request.

9. Liability for defects / Warranty


If the purchased item is defective, the provisions of statutory liability for defects shall apply. The following shall apply in deviation from this:



9.1 Claims for defects shall not arise in the event of natural wear and tear or damage arising after the transfer of risk as a result of incorrect or negligent handling, excessive use, unsuitable equipment or due to special external influences which are not provided for in the contract. If improper modifications or repair work are carried out by the customer or third parties, no claims for defects shall exist for these and the resulting consequences, unless the customer can prove that the fault complained of was not caused by these modifications or repair work.



9.2 In the case of new goods, the limitation period for claims for defects is one year from delivery of the goods. In the case of used goods, rights and claims for defects are excluded.



9.3 The above limitations of liability and shortening of the limitation period shall not apply

  • for items that have been used for a building in accordance with their normal use and have caused its defectiveness,
  • for claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses by the customer,
  • in the event that the seller has fraudulently concealed the defect, and
  • for the right of recourse according to § 445a BGB.

9.4 In the event of subsequent performance, the seller has the right to choose between rectification or replacement delivery.



9.5 If a replacement delivery is made as part of the liability for defects, the limitation period shall not begin again.



9.6 If subsequent performance is effected by means of a replacement delivery, the customer is obliged to return the goods first delivered to the seller within 30 days. The return package must contain the reason for the return, the customer's name and the number assigned for the purchase of the defective goods, which enables the seller to identify the returned goods. As long as and to the extent that it is not possible to assign the return shipment for reasons for which the customer is responsible, the seller is not obliged to accept the returned goods and to refund the purchase price. The customer shall bear the costs of reshipment.

9.7 If the Seller delivers a defect-free item for the purpose of subsequent performance, the Seller may claim compensation for use from the Customer in accordance with Section 346 (1) BGB. Other statutory claims remain unaffected.



9.8 If the customer acts as a merchant within the meaning of § 1 HGB (German Commercial Code), he shall be subject to the commercial obligation to inspect and give notice of defects pursuant to § 377 HGB. If the customer fails to comply with the notification obligations regulated therein, the goods shall be deemed approved.

10. Liability


The Seller shall be liable to the Customer for all contractual, quasi-contractual and statutory claims, including claims in tort, for damages and reimbursement of expenses as follows:



10.1 The Seller shall be liable without limitation for any legal reason

  • in the event of intent or gross negligence,
  • in the event of intentional or negligent injury to life, limb or health,
  • on the basis of a guarantee promise, unless otherwise regulated in this respect,
  • due to mandatory liability such as under the Product Liability Act.

10.2 If the Seller negligently breaches a material contractual obligation, liability shall be limited to the foreseeable damage typical for the contract, unless liability is unlimited in accordance with the above clause. Material contractual obligations are obligations which the contract imposes on the seller according to its content in order to achieve the purpose of the contract, the fulfillment of which is essential for the proper execution of the contract and on the observance of which the customer may regularly rely.



10.3 Any further liability of the Seller is excluded.



10.4 The above liability provisions also apply with regard to the Seller's liability for its vicarious agents and legal representatives.

11. Statute of limitations


Claims of the customer against the seller shall become time-barred - with the exception of the claims regulated under the item "Liability for defects / Warranty" - one year after knowledge of the facts giving rise to the claim, but no later than five years after performance of the service, unless unlimited liability applies in accordance with the above clause.

12. Retention, assignment


12.1 The customer's rights of retention and rights to refuse performance are excluded, unless the seller does not dispute the underlying counterclaims or these have been legally established.



12.2 The assignment of claims arising from the contract concluded with the customer by the customer, in particular the assignment of any claims for defects by the customer, is excluded.

13. Special conditions for the processing of goods according to specific customer specifications


13.1 The customer shall indemnify the seller against claims by third parties which they may assert against the seller in connection with an infringement of their rights through the contractual use of the customer's content by the seller. The customer shall also assume the necessary costs of legal defense, including all court and attorney's fees in the statutory amount. This does not apply if the customer is not responsible for the infringement. In the event of a claim by a third party, the customer is obliged to provide the seller immediately, truthfully and completely with all information necessary for the examination of the claims and a defense.



13.2 The Seller reserves the right to refuse processing orders if the content provided by the Customer for this purpose violates statutory or official prohibitions or offends common decency. This applies in particular to the provision of anti-constitutional, racist, xenophobic, discriminatory, offensive, youth-endangering and/or violence-glorifying content.

14. Applicable law, place of jurisdiction


14.1 The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to all legal relationships between the parties to the exclusion of the laws on the international purchase of movable goods.



14.2 If the customer acts as a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law with its registered office in the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract shall be the registered office of the seller. If the customer is domiciled outside the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany, the place of business of the seller shall be the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract. In the above cases, however, the seller is in any case entitled to appeal to the court at the customer's place of business.
