    1) Scope of application
    1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as “GTC”) of XP Sport GmbH (hereinafter referred to as “Seller”) shall apply to all contracts concluded by a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter referred to as “Customer”) with the Seller with regard to 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 objected to, unless otherwise agreed.

1.2 These General Terms and Conditions shall apply accordingly to the purchase of vouchers, unless otherwise expressly stipulated.

1.3 A consumer within the meaning of these General Terms and Conditions is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes which can predominantly be attributed neither to his commercial nor to his independent professional activity. An entrepreneur within the meaning of these General Terms and Conditions is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of his commercial or independent professional activity.

2) Conclusion of contract
2.1 The product descriptions contained in the online shop of the seller do not represent 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 in the seller’s online shop. 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 offer to enter into a contract 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 may also submit the offer to the seller by telephone, fax or e-mail.

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 e-mail), in which case the receipt of the order confirmation by the customer is decisive, or
by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, in which case the receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive, or
by requesting payment from the customer after the customer has placed the order.
If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract shall be concluded at the point in time at which 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 to be a rejection of the offer with the consequence that the customer is no longer bound by his declaration of intent.

2.4 If the customer selects “PayPal Express” as a payment method during the online ordering process, he also issues a payment order to his payment service provider by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process. In this case, the seller declares, notwithstanding section 2.3, the acceptance of the offer of the customer at the time when the customer triggers the payment process by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process.

2.5 The period for acceptance of the offer begins on the day after the customer sends the offer and ends with the expiry of the fifth day following the sending of the offer.

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

2.7 Prior to the binding submission of the order via the Seller’s online order form, the Customer may continuously correct its entries using the usual keyboard and mouse functions. In addition, all entries are displayed again in a confirmation window before the binding submission of the order and can also be corrected there using the usual keyboard and mouse functions.

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

2.9 Order processing and contacting usually take place via e-mail and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the e-mail address he/she has provided for order processing is correct, so that 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.

3) Right of withdrawal
3.1 Consumers are generally entitled to a right of withdrawal.

3.2 More detailed information on the right of withdrawal can be found in the seller’s cancellation policy.

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.

5.2 If the transport company returns the shipped goods to the seller because delivery to the customer was not possible, the customer shall bear the costs for the unsuccessful shipment. This does not apply if the customer effectively exercises his right of withdrawal, if he is not responsible for the circumstance that led to the impossibility of delivery, or if he was temporarily prevented from accepting the offered service, unless the seller had given him reasonable prior notice of the service.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to the customer, even in the case of consumers, as soon as the seller has delivered the goods to the forwarding agent, the carrier or any other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment, if the customer has commissioned the forwarding agent, the carrier or any other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment to carry out the shipment and the seller has not previously named such person or institution to the customer.

5.4 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 diligence.

In the event of non-availability or only partial availability of the goods, the customer will be informed immediately and the consideration will be refunded without delay.
