§ 1 Scope of application
(1) These General Terms and Conditions apply to all contracts that you conclude with us, EVi Scopes GmbH, Grünauer Str. 201-209, 12557 Berlin.
(2) Our offer is directed both at consumers within the meaning of § 13 BGB (German Civil Code) and at entrepreneurs within the meaning of § 14 BGB.
(3) Deviating, conflicting, or supplementary general terms and conditions of the customer shall not become part of the contract unless we expressly agree to their validity in writing.
§ 2 Subject matter of the contract
(1) The subject matter of the contract is the sale of technical equipment (e.g., video endoscopes, borescopes, camera systems) and the provision of technical services, in particular:
§ 3 Conclusion of contract
(1) You can submit an inquiry via our contact form, by email, or by phone. This does not constitute a binding offer.
(2) After we receive your inquiry, you will receive an automatic confirmation of receipt. We will then send you an individual, binding offer.
(3) The contract is concluded when you expressly accept this offer, e.g. by written confirmation or by payment.
(4) If you choose to pay in advance, the contract is concluded when the payment request (order confirmation) is sent.
(5) The contract is processed exclusively electronically by email. Please ensure that your email address is correct and that our emails can be received (e.g., do not end up in your spam folder).
§ 4 Right of retention, retention of title
(1) A right of retention may only be exercised if it is based on the same contractual relationship.
(2) The delivered goods remain our property until full payment has been received.
§ 5 Warranty
(1) The statutory rights of liability for defects apply.
(2) Consumers are requested to check the goods for completeness, obvious defects, and transport damage upon receipt and to notify us and the transport service provider of any complaints in a timely manner. There is no obligation to do so; the statutory warranty rights remain unaffected.
(3) Deviations from the objective requirements of goods (Section 434 BGB, new version) shall only be deemed agreed if we have expressly pointed this out to you prior to conclusion of the contract and this deviation has been separately agreed in writing between the parties.
§ 6 Special information regarding services
(1) The respective contractual agreements apply to the services provided by us, supplemented by the relevant statutory provisions of service contract or work contract law.
(2) Dates for inspections (e.g., NDT, pressure vessel inspections) are non-binding unless expressly confirmed in writing.
(3) The customer is obliged to provide all prerequisites necessary for the performance of the inspection (accessibility, power supply, documents, etc.) in good time.
(4) We reserve the right to perform agreed services using qualified specialist personnel or suitable subcontractors.
§ 7 Liability
(1) We shall be liable without limitation for damages resulting from injury to life, limb, or health.
(2) We shall only be liable for other damages in cases of intent or gross negligence.
(3) In cases of simple negligence, we shall only be liable for the breach of essential contractual obligations (so-called cardinal obligations), but limited to typically foreseeable damages.
§ 8 Choice of law, place of jurisdiction
(1) German law applies exclusively, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
(2) For consumers, this choice of law applies only insofar as it does not deprive them of mandatory legal provisions of the country of their habitual residence.
(3) If the customer is a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law, the exclusive place of jurisdiction is our registered office in Berlin.
