1. Scope of application

The following terms and conditions shall apply to all orders transmitted to WiKa Technology electronically, by phone, by fax, by letter or by e-mail by the consumer as laid down in §13 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch – BGB) – hereinafter referred to as “customer”. The customer acknowledges these terms and conditions with each order.

Differing, opposing or additional GTC shall not apply, unless their validity is expressly agreed upon in writing. Any formal reference to terms and conditions of the customer is expressly rejected.

2. Conclusion of a contract

The presentation of the WiKa Technology range of goods on the internet does not constitute an offer as laid down in §§ 145 ff. of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch – BGB). The order of goods by the customer constitutes a binding purchase offer to WiKa Technology. WiKa Technology is entitled to accept the order by delivering the goods or notifying the customer of the delivery with an e-mail confirming the order within a period of 7 days after receipt of the order. WiKa Technology accepts the order, provided that the goods are available and, in particular, that deliveries to WiKa Technology by its suppliers are correct and in due time.

This shall only apply to non-deliveries for which WiKa Technology cannot be held responsible. If the goods are not available, WiKa Technology shall inform the customer without delay and reimburse any payment that has already been made by the customer without delay. The confirmation e-mail that is automatically generated and sent by the system immediately after the customer has submitted the order does not constitute binding acceptance of the offer by WiKa Technology. Within the ordering process, the customer is responsible for the risk of an unclear, faulty transmission. WiKa Technology sells its goods only in commercial quantities.

3. Prices

The prices listed on the internet at the time of the order shall apply. All listed prices are final prices that include the applicable statutory value-added tax and other price components. WiKa Technology reserves the right to make reasonable technical changes such as changes in form, colour and/or weight.

4. Delivery

WiKa Technology shall deliver the ordered goods to the customer as quickly as possible provided that they are available. If the ordered goods are not all in stock, WiKa Technology reserves the right to ship orders in partial deliveries. Costs for the partial deliveries shall be borne by WiKa Technology.
