Article 3 - Applicability
- These general terms and conditions apply to every offer made by the entrepreneur and every concluded distance agreement between the entrepreneur and the consumer.

If this is reasonably not possible, the entrepreneur will indicate how the consumer can view the terms and conditions before concluding the agreement, and that they will be sent to the consumer free of charge upon request.
- If the distance agreement is concluded electronically, in deviation from the previous paragraph, the text of these general terms and conditions may be made available to the consumer electronically in such a way that the consumer can easily store them on a durable medium. If this is not reasonably possible, the entrepreneur will indicate where the terms and conditions can be accessed electronically and that they will be sent free of charge upon request.
- If, in addition to these general terms and conditions, specific product or service terms are applicable, the second and third paragraphs apply accordingly, and the consumer may always rely on the applicable provision that is most favorable to them in case of conflicting terms.
Article 4 - The offer
- If an offer has a limited validity or is subject to conditions, this will be clearly stated in the offer.

Article 5 - The agreement
- The agreement is concluded, subject to the provisions in paragraph 4, when the consumer accepts the offer and meets the conditions set forth.

If the consumer can pay electronically, the entrepreneur will take appropriate security measures.
