1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "GTC") of studio oliveira - Isabel Hartwig (hereinafter referred to as "Seller") shall apply to all contracts for the supply of goods concluded by consumers or entrepreneurs (hereinafter referred to as "Customers") with the Seller in respect of the goods presented by the Seller in its online store. The inclusion of the Customer's own terms and conditions is hereby objected to, unless otherwise agreed.
1.2 These GTC shall apply accordingly to contracts for the delivery of vouchers, unless otherwise agreed.
1.3 A consumer within the meaning of these Terms and Conditions is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that can predominantly be attributed neither to his commercial nor to his independent professional activity.

2. CONCLUSION OF THE CONTRACT
2.1 The product descriptions contained in the Seller's online store do not constitute binding offers on the part of the Seller, but serve to enable the Customer to submit a binding offer.
2.2 The Customers may submit the offer via the online order form integrated into the Seller's online store. After placing the selected goods in the virtual shopping cart and going through the electronic ordering process, the customers submit a legally binding offer to enter into a contract with respect to the goods contained in the shopping cart by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process.
2.3 The Seller may accept the Customer's offer within five days by sending the Customer a written order confirmation, in which case the receipt of the order confirmation by the Customer shall be decisive, or by delivering the ordered goods to the Customer, in which case the receipt of the goods by the Customer shall be 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. The period for acceptance of the offer shall begin on the day after the offer is sent by the customer and shall end at the end of the fifth day following the sending of the offer. 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 shall no longer be bound by its declaration of intent.
2.4 When an offer is made via the Seller's online order form, the text of the contract shall be stored by the Seller after the conclusion of the contract and transmitted to the Customers in text form (e.g. e-mail) after their order has been sent. The Seller shall not make the text of the contract accessible beyond this. If the customers have set up a user account in the Seller's online store before submitting their order, the order data will be archived on the Seller's website and can be accessed by the customers free of charge via their password-protected user account by providing the relevant login data.
2.5 Before placing a binding order via the Seller's online order form, the Customer can identify possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means for better recognition of input errors can be the enlargement function of the browser, with the help of which the display on the screen is enlarged. Customers can correct their entries during the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until they click the button that concludes the ordering process.
2.6 The German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.
2.7 Order processing and contacting usually take place via e-mail and automated order processing. Customers must ensure that the e-mail address they provide 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, customers 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 REVOCATION

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.
4.3 Customers will be informed of the payment options in the Seller's online store.
4.4 If payment in advance by bank transfer has been agreed, payment shall be due immediately after conclusion of the contract, unless the parties have agreed on a later due date.

In order to be able to pay the invoice amount via "SOFORT", customers must have an online banking account activated for participation in "SOFORT", identify themselves accordingly during the payment process and confirm the payment instruction to "SOFORT". The payment transaction is then immediately carried out by "SOFORT" and the customer's bank account is debited. Customers can find more information on the "SOFORT" payment method on the Internet at https://www.klarna.com/sofort/.
4.6 If a payment method offered via the payment service "Shopify Payments" is selected, the payment will be processed via the payment service provider Stripe Payments Europe Ltd, 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland (hereinafter "Stripe"). The individual payment methods offered via Shopify Payments are communicated to customers in the seller's online store. For the processing of payments, Stripe may use other payment services, for which special payment conditions may apply, to which the customers may be informed separately. Further information on "Shopify Payments" is available on the Internet at https://www.shopify.com/legal/terms-payments-de. If the direct debit payment method is selected, the payment is processed via the payment service provider Stripe.

Pre-notification is any communication (e.g. invoice, policy, contract) to the customers announcing a debit by SEPA Direct Debit. If the direct debit is not honored due to insufficient funds in the account or due to the provision of incorrect bank details, or if the customer objects to the direct debit even though he/she is not entitled to do so, the customer shall bear the fees incurred by the respective bank for the chargeback if he/she is responsible for this. If the credit card payment method is selected, the invoice amount is due immediately upon conclusion of the contract. The payment is processed via the payment service provider Stripe. The credit card will be charged immediately after sending the customer's order in the online store.

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 suppliers with due diligence.
