The parties sign an acceptance protocol as part of the acceptance process.
(1) The warranty period is one year from delivery or, if acceptance is required, from acceptance. This period does not apply to claims for damages of the Customer resulting from injury to life, limb or health or from intentional or grossly negligent breaches of duty by the seller or his vicarious agents, which in each case become time-barred according to the statutory provisions.
(2) The delivered items shall be examined carefully immediately after delivery to the Customer or to the third party appointed by him. They shall apply with regard to obvious defects or other defects that would have been apparent in an immediate, careful investigation, as approved by the Customer if the seller does not receive a written notice of defects within five working days after delivery. With regard to other defects, the delivery items are deemed to have been approved by the Customer if the complaint is not received by the seller within five working days after the time when the defect was revealed; If the defect was already apparent to the Customer under normal conditions of use at an earlier date, that earlier date is decisive for the commencement of the period of notice.
(3) The technical data, specifications, explanations of the functions and possible uses as well as other information in any product descriptions provided are for information purposes only as a description of the condition i.S. of § 434 para. 1 sentence 1 BGB and not as a separate guarantee, texture or durability guarantee. Statements made by the seller or by third parties commissioned by the seller regarding the subject matter of the scanner and / or the software are only independent guarantees of guarantee, quality or durability in the legal sense, if this is stated in writing by the management of the seller and expressly and literally as "independent guarantee", "Guarantee of quality" or "durability guarantee".
(4) In the case of material defects, the seller shall, at the request of the Customer render supplementary performance at its discretion by remedying the defect (rectification) or by delivering a defect-free item (new delivery). In the event of material defects in the sensor control software supplied, the seller is entitled to render subsequent performance by delivering a patch, update or new program version of the Sensor Control Software. The seller is entitled to deliver a new program version of the Sensor Control Software if it contains the same scope of functions as the contractual version of the Sensor Control Software and its acceptance is reasonable for the Customer and does not lead to significant disadvantages. Upon delivery of a new version, the Customer is obliged to return or delete the defective sensor control software (§ 439 para. 4 BGB). The seller is entitled to show the customer temporary workaround and to remedy the defect later by delivering the next update released by the seller or new program version of the sensor control software, if this is reasonable for the customer. If the seller makes use of this right, this must be taken into account when determining the reasonableness of the period for supplementary performance.
The Customer may demand, within a reasonable period of time, a type of supplementary performance other than that chosen by the seller, if the type of subsequent performance chosen by the seller is unacceptable to him. The rights of the seller according to §§ 439 Abs. 3, 275 Abs. 2 and 3 BGB remain unaffected. In the case of failure, the impossibility, unreasonableness, refusal or inappropriate delay of the repair or replacement delivery, the Customert can withdraw from the contract or reduce the purchase price appropriately.
(5) After fruitless expiry of a period set for supplementary performance, the Customer must declare in writing within a reasonable period to the seller whether he continues to demand supplementary performance or whether and which of the aforementioned further rights he asserts. If the Customer continues to demand supplementary performance and the vendor subsequently announces this immediately, he must grant the vendor a further reasonable period of time within which the customer is not entitled to assert the aforementioned rights.
The Customer is only entitled to rescind and assert a claim for damages instead of the entire service in case of significant defects. The granting of the grace period, the declaration of the resignation as well as the assertion of the damages instead of the performance require the written form to be valid. A deadline set by the Customer is unnecessary in the cases specified by law in §§ 281 para. 2, 323 para. 2, 440 BGB.
(6) If a defect is based on the fault of the Seller, the Customer may claim damages under the conditions specified in § 8.
(7) In the case of defects of components of other manufacturers, which the seller cannot eliminate for licensing or actual reasons, the seller will assert his warranty claims against the manufacturers and suppliers for the account of the Customer or assign them to the Customer . Warranty claims against the seller exist for such defects under the other conditions and in accordance with these General Conditions of Sale only if the judicial enforcement of the aforementioned claims against the manufacturer and supplier was unsuccessful or, for example, due to insolvency, hopeless. During the duration of the legal dispute, the limitation period of the respective warranty claims of the Customer against the seller is inhibited.
(8) The warranty becomes void if the Customer changes the delivery item without the consent of the seller or has it modified by third parties and the elimination of the defect becomes impossible or unreasonably difficult. In any case, the Customer has to bear the additional costs incurred by the change to remedy the defect.
(9) If an error analysis in connection with defects reported by the Customer reveals that claims or rights of the Customer do not exist because of defects, the seller is entitled to charge the costs incurred in the course of the investigation to the Customer in accordance with his current price list. If the Customer has recognized or negligently failed to recognize that a defect is not present, but the cause for the error complained of him originates from his own sphere of responsibility.
(10) Any delivery of used items agreed upon with the Customer in individual cases shall be subject to the exclusion of any warranty for material defects.
(1) In accordance with this § 7 the seller warrants that the delivery item or the sensor control software supplied is free from industrial property rights or copyrights of third parties. Each party to the contract will notify the other party in writing without delay if claims against the other party for breach of such rights are asserted.
(2) In the event that the delivery item or the sensor control software infringes a commercial property right or copyright of a third party, the seller will change or replace the delivery item in such a way that no rights of third parties are violated, at his own option and expense, the delivery item or sensor control software, however, continues to fulfill the contractually agreed functions, or grant the Customer the right of use by concluding a license agreement. If the seller fails to do so within a reasonable period of time, the Customer is entitled to withdraw from the contract or to reasonably reduce the purchase price.
However, the Customer is only entitled to rescind and assert a claim for damages instead of the entire service if there are significant defects. Any claims for damages of the Customer are subject to the restrictions of § 8 of these General Conditions of Sale.
(3) In the case of infringements by products of other manufacturers supplied by the seller, the seller shall, at his discretion, assert his claims against the manufacturers and suppliers for the account of the Customer or assign them to the Customer.

(3) Insofar as the seller is fundamentally liable for damages in accordance with § 8 (2), this liability is limited to damages which the seller foresaw upon conclusion of the contract as a possible consequence of a breach of contract or which he should have foreseen when applying due care. Indirect damage and consequential damage, which are the result of defects in the delivery item, are also only substitutable insofar as such damage can typically be expected in the case of the intended use of the delivery item.
(4) In the case of liability for simple negligence, the Seller's liability for damage to property and the resulting further pecuniary loss is to the amount of EUR 7,500, or max. 5% of the agreed net price, depending on which amount is lower, limited to each case of damage, even if it is a violation of essential contractual obligations.
