- These General Terms and Conditions of Business (“GTC”) apply exclusively to all business relationships between QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH and buyers. The GTC apply irrespective of whether the buyer is a consumer or a businessman.
- All agreements made between the contracting parties in connection with a purchase contract are as expressed in, in particular, these terms and conditions of sale, the written order confirmation, and the notification of acceptance from QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH.
- Terms and conditions of the buyer that are at variance therewith do not apply unless QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH expressly acknowledges them in writing before a contract is entered into. This applies also if QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH does not expressly exclude them.
- The contractual languages are German and English. Presentation and advertising of items in the Online Shop do not constitute a binding offer to enter into a purchase contract. All offers are subject to change in respect of technical alterations and other changes.
- Purchase orders can be submitted to QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH through the webshop at the address (URL) The buyer can buy the offered products in the QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH Online Shop. Once the buyer has found the desired product, he can add it to the shopping cart without obligation by clicking the “ADD TO CART” button. The buyer can view the contents of the shopping cart at any time, without obligation, by clicking the “OPEN CART” button. The buyer can remove the products from the shopping cart at any time by clicking the “REMOVE” button before a purchase is made. To buy the products that have been placed in the shopping cart, the buyer must click on the “Checkout” button. After logging into his customer account or creating a new customer account, the buyer is then asked to enter his personal data, select the shipping and payment methods, and confirm that he has read the customer information. The ordering process can be cancelled at any time or completed with a click on the “CONFIRM PAYMENT AND SUMBIT ORDER” button.
- Before submitting the order, the buyer is given an opportunity to review the order and verify that everything is correct, particularly in respect of prices and quantities, and to make corrections as needed. For this purpose the buyer is provided with the main contents of the purchase contract, such as the product description, the total price, shipping charges and additional costs, prominently displayed in a clear and understandable form, before the order is submitted. In addition, the ordering process in the Online Shop is designed so that the buyer confirms with his order that he agrees to make payment. An order cannot be submitted with a click on the “CONFIRM PAYMENT AND SUBMIT ORDER” button until the buyer has accepted these contractual terms by ticking the check box that is provided for that purpose, whereupon the order becomes legally binding.
- With a click on the “CONFIRM PAYMENT AND SUMBIT ORDER” button the buyer submits his order, thereby submitting an offer to enter into contract. Submission of an order to QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH constitutes a legally binding offer of intent to enter into a contract with QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH. The buyer is bound by the order for a period of two weeks after the order is submitted. His existing right of cancellation according to § 3 remains unaffected thereby.
- QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH will promptly confirm by email its receipt of an order submitted through the Online Shop. Such an email does not yet constitute a binding acceptance of the order unless it contains a declaration of such acceptance along with the confirmation of receipt.
- A contract is then made between QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH and a buyer only if QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH accepts the order by means of a declaration of acceptance in the form of an order confirmation or by delivering the merchandise to the buyer. Should it be impossible to deliver the ordered merchandise, for example because the merchandise is not in stock, QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH will refrain from declaring acceptance, in which case no contract is entered into. QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbHwill promptly inform the buyer accordingly and refund without delay any consideration it has already received.
- The merchandise is shipped to the last address QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH has been provided with or – in case of payment via PayPal – to the address deposited with PayPal. In the case of delivery to an address within the EU and subsequent private export from the EU, we generally do not refund VAT.
- For online orders, the text of the contract and the order data are provided before a contract is entered into and can be saved and printed out by the buyer. Upon completion of the ordering process, the text of the contract is stored by QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH in accordance with the provisions of data protection law and sent to the buyer by email together with the GTC of QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH. The general terms and conditions of contract can be viewed at any time, even before entry into contract, through the AGB link and downloaded or saved from there.

The purchaser shall only be entitled to withhold payment due to counterclaims arising from the same contractual relationship.
The delivered goods remain the property of QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH until the purchase price has been paid in full.
- The QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH is liable for material and legal defects according to the applicable provisions of law, in particular §§ 434 et seqq. BGB. The limitation period for statutory claims for defects is two years and begins when the merchandise is delivered. Notwithstanding this provision, a shortened warranty period of one year from acceptance shall apply to repair work ordered.
- The warranty is excluded for defects resulting from incorrect (third-party) assembly, incorrect operation of the merchandise or its accessories, or wear from overuse. Usual or unavoidable deviations with regard to quality, quantity, dimensions, colouring shall not be regarded as defects to the extent permitted by law.
- Any seller’s warranties for specific items or manufacturer’s warranties granted by the manufacturers for specific items apply in addition to the claims for material or legal defects within the meaning of para. 1. The particulars of the scope of such warranties are as stated in the warranty terms that are included with some items.
- In the event of defectiveness, the buyer has a claim to subsequent performance. If the buyer is a consumer (i.e. according to § 13 BGB a natural person (= a person), who concludes the legal transaction for purposes, which can be attributed predominantly neither to their commercial nor their independent professional activity), he has the right to choose in the context of his claim for subsequent performance whether he wishes to have the goods repaired (in particular repaired) or delivered a new, defect-free product. The QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH may refuse the type of subsequent performance chosen by the purchaser if it is only possible at disproportionate cost. Further details shall be governed by § 439 para. 3 BGB (German Civil Code). If, on the other hand, the Buyer is an entrepreneur (i.e. a natural or legal person in accordance with § 14 BGB or a partnership with legal capacity acting in the exercise of its commercial or independent professional activity when concluding the legal transaction), QLOCKTWO Manufacture GmbH shall have this right to choose.

- The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies to the exclusion of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). If the buyer has submitted an order as a consumer and his habitual residence is in another country at the time of his order, the application of that country’s mandatory provisions of law remains unaffected by the choice of law provided in sentence.
- The place of performance for delivery and payment is Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany.
- If the buyer is a businessman, a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law and has its domicile in Germany at the time of the order, then the exclusive place of jurisdiction is the registered domicile Stuttgart, Germany. The applicable provisions of law for local and international jurisdiction otherwise apply.
