(4)    Additions and amendments to these GTC and alternative terms and conditions of the Customer are only valid if and insofar as they are recognised by Olando. This also applies even if no express objection is made pertaining to the Customer’s business and/or delivery terms.

(5)    A consumer within the meaning of the provisions set out below is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that cannot be primarily associated with their commercial activities or with any work-related activities carried out in the context of their self-employment.

Section 2    Conclusion of the contract

(2)    Olando reserves the right to only supply merchandise in customary household quantities.

(3)    By placing an order — i.e. by clicking the “Buy now” button — you are making a binding offer of purchase. Olando will automatically e-mail you a confirmation of receipt that will also serve as an additional record of your order. This automatic confirmation of receipt merely confirms that Olando has received your order; it does not constitute acceptance of your offer.

(4)    Depending on the payment method chosen, Olando reserves the right to review the payment information you provide (i.e. your chosen payment method, its validity and your credit standing) in relation to the value of your order and to decline orders depending on the result of the review.

(5)    The contract with Olando will only be concluded when Olando sends you a separate e-mail confirming that your order has been shipped. The acceptance deadline will be no more than 7 calendar days.

(6)    Should it be impossible to deliver any of the merchandise you ordered, for example, because the item in question is out of stock, Olando will withhold its declaration of acceptance. No contract will be concluded in this case. We will promptly notify you of these circumstances and promptly refund any payment already received.

(7)    The contract and any correspondence relating to the contract will be written in German or English.

(8)    We will store your order data as specified by law. Should you lose any of the documents pertaining to your order, please e-mail us at shop@looping.studio. We will gladly send you a copy of the order data we have on record.

Section 4    Return procedures

You can avoid incurring any obligation to compensate us for any such loss in value by desisting from any activity that could impair the value of the merchandise and refraining from using it as if it were your own property. Otherwise, you should only test or inspect the merchandise in a way that would also be possible in a retail outlet.

(3)    Please note that product packaging such as protective bags for jewellery or high-quality cartons for printed material constitute part of the merchandise ordered. If this packaging is not returned together with the merchandise, this may cause the merchandise to deteriorate significantly. In such cases, Olando reserves the right to request the return of the packaging or to claim compensation for the loss in value.
