General Terms and Conditions www.calida.com

These general terms and conditions set out the basis on which we may sell goods to you. Pleas read these terms carfully.

We draw your attention to your withdrawal right in article 4 and the limits or our liability in article 12.

1. Subject matter and scope

(1) These General Terms and Conditions apply for all orders the buyer places with us (Calida Group Digital GmbH, VAT-ID: DE 815128474, Company Number: AG Traunstein HRB 19548, Manager: Thomas Baumberger, David Müller, Gewerbepark BWB 2, 83052 Bruckmühl, Deutschland, Phone: +49 8062 72133-10, Fax: +49 8062 72133-499, E-mail: [email protected]) via our online shop (www.calida.com).

(2) Our offerings are directed solely to purchasers aged 18 or older and who are consumers. A consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.

(3) Our deliveries, services rendered and offers shall be effected exclusively on the basis of these General Terms and Conditions.

(4) The contract language is German, English, French and Italian.

(5) These General Terms and Conditions can be downloaded, saved and printed via https://www.calida.com/cms/general-terms-and-conditions on the Internet.

2. Registration as customer

(1) Buyers can register as a customer in our online shop free of charge. Registration creates a permanent customer account. This customer account can be used in future to place orders without the buyer having to enter personal details every time. Registration is not a precondition for placing an order. There is no legal entitlement to registration.

(2) To register as a customer and create a customer account the buyer has to enter, inter alia, a currently valid email address and a password. The email address serves as a user name and together with the password as log-in data. The e-mail address will also be used for communicating with the buyer.

(3) The buyer warrants that the information provided during registration is correct and complete. Pseudonyms may not be used. The buyer may not register more than once.

(4) The buyer is obliged to handle the log-in data with due care. The buyer is never permitted to disclose the log-in data to third parties and/or permit third parties to access the customer account by bypassing the log-in data. Should the buyer have any indication of his customer account being misused by third parties, we are to be notified immediately.

(5) In so far as the buyer’s personal details change, he himself is responsible for updating them. The buyer can make changes online after logging on to his customer account.

(6) The buyer can have his registration deleted at any time by corresponding notification to us. Deletion irrevocably removes the customer account and all the buyer’s personal details linked to it. This applies in so far as there are no statutory retention duties or unless the information is still required for processing orders.

(7) We are entitled to cease offering registration and customer accounts via our online shop at any time. In that case, the buyer will be promptly informed about the intended cessation and his customer account with all its data will be irrevocably deleted.

3. Conclusion of contracts

(1) The presentation of goods on the online shop does not constitute a binding offer to conclude a contract of sale with us. In actual fact, it is a non-binding invitation to order goods from us on the online shop.

(2) With his order, the buyer submits a binding offer to conclude a contract of sale by clicking the button with the "Buy now" label.

(3) After we receive the order, the buyer will receive an automatically generated email in which we confirm that we have received his order (order confirmation). This order confirmation does not constitute any acceptance of the purchase offer. No contract comes about yet through the order confirmation.

(4) A purchase contract for the goods is only concluded when we expressly declare acceptance or when we dispatch the goods to the buyer without prior express declaration of acceptance. If the goods dispatched do not correspond to the goods ordered by the customer, no contract is concluded.

3.1 By way of derogation, the following applies to the consumer with his habitual residence in France:

(2) After placing your order, you must confirm it by double-clicking as follows: after having selected products, you must check and possibly correct the order (including, but not limited to: identification and quantity of selected products, corresponding prices, terms and delivery charges), before validating. The contractual information will be confirmed at the time of your validation of order at the latest.

(3) By confirming your order, you declare you have read, understood and agreed these General Terms and Conditions, and you validate your obligation to pay for the order.

(4) After you click the button “buy now”, we will acknowledge receipt by sending you a confirmation email which will include the summary of your order. This does not yet constitute an acceptance of the contract.

(5) With his order, the buyer submits a binding offer to conclude a contract of sale by clicking the button with the "Buy now" label.

(6) A contract of sale for the goods only comes about once we expressly declare acceptance or if we send the goods – without prior express declaration of acceptance – to the buyer.
