(3), (4) und (5) , Modix reserves the right to request advance payment or a deposit amounting to 50%, further 30% during the conversion and the remaining 20% of the estimated total bill after completion. This does not discharge the Customer from its obligation to make additional payment in the event that after the end of the contract, it is determined that there was underpayment by Modix’s Customer.
(8) All of Modix’s due receivables from the Customer are paid by direct debit if not individually agreed otherwise in writing. To implement the direct debit procedure, the Customer must give its permission for direct debit by means of a direct debit procedure and to irrevocably authorise Modix to withdraw from its account amounts for invoices that are due.
(9) If the direct debit authorisation is revoked by the Customer or if for any reasons-for which the Customer is responsible-implementing the direct debit is impossible, on the basis of the increased processing time and costs, Modix will charge a processing fee in the amount of €25 per unsuccessful debit attempt. This also in the case of a chargeback.
(10) If the payment to the account is agreed by individual contract and in writing, in the event of a delay in payment by the Customer, Modix is entitled to charge the flat rate sum of €25 for every payment reminder.
(11) If the Customer falls into arrears with its payment obligations, Modix is entitled to demand late payment interest at a rate 8% higher than basic rate of the European Central bank. Furthermore, Modix is entitled to block the service for the Customer without this affecting Modix’s claim for payment.
(12) In the case of periodical payment methods stipulated by the Customer, the balance of payments owed to Modix by the customer for the entire term of the contract will become payable immediately in a single payment if the Customer falls into arrears with more than a single instalment.
(13) The customer only has the right to set -off if a counterclaim has been legally established or acknowledged by Modix in writing.
(1) Until the final settlement of all claims created and existing on the basis of the business relationship, the goods remain property of Modix (retained goods). With several claims or current account, the retention of title serves as security for the outstanding balance claim, also if individual deliveries of goods have already been paid for.
(2) In the event of a breach by the Customer, such as failure to pay by the due date, after previously fixing a reasonable deadline, Modix has the right to take back the retained goods. If Modix takes back the retained goods, this constitutes a withdrawal from the contract. Modix is entitled to use the retained goods after taking them back. After deduction of a reasonable sum for the commercialisation costs, the realisation proceeds are to be offset with the amounts owed by the Customer.
(3) In the event of seizures of the retained goods by third parties, in particular attachments, the Customer will point out the ownership by Modix and immediately inform Modix.
(4) The Customer is entitled to process and sell the retained goods in the proper course of business, as long as it is not in arrears. Pledges or chattel mortgages are not allowed. The Customer assigns to Modix as security the full of claims stemming from the resale or any other legal ground (insurance, tortious act relating to the retained goods, with immediate effect. Modix gives the Customer revocable authorisation to collect the claims assigned to Modix on its own behalf. The direct debit authorisation expires if the Customer does not duly comply with its payment obligations , gets into payment difficulties, enforcement proceedings are brought against it or judicial insolvency proceedings are opened or the opening is refused due to insufficient assets..
(5) Processing or conversion of the goods always occurs for Modix as manufacturer, however without obligation for Modix. If the delivered goods are processed with other goods not belonging to Modix, Modix then acquires co-ownership of the new item in proportion of the value of the delivery items to the other processed items at the time of processing. If the delivered goods are connected or inextricably mixed with other items not belonging to Modix, Modix acquires co-ownership of the new item in proportion to the value of the delivered goods to the other connected or combined goods. If with the connection or mixing, the Customer's item is to be regarded as main item, then it is deemed agreed that the Customer transfers a share of the co-ownership of the new item to Modix. The Customer preserves the thus formed co-ownership for Modix.
(6) Modix is obliged to release securities it is entitled to, the extent that if the realisable value of the securities exceeds the secured claims by more than 10%; thereby the choice of securities to be released is incumbent upon Modix.
(7) Photographic and graphic supplies/services always remain the property of Modix. The Customer only acquires the basic right to make use of the created delivery (-ies)/service (s) within the context of the provisions as per contract. Special arrangements must be agreed to in writing.
(1) In the event of the violation of a contractual obligation, the customer is entitled vis-à-vis Modix to the statutory rights under the following provisions: Modix guarantees that services corresponding to the specification of services valid at the signing of the contract can be used and essentially fulfil the functions described therein.. Defects and errors that appear after transfer/handing over on account of modifications or upgrades by third parties , such as E-commerce platforms, software tools, marketplaces and therefore lie outside the control of Modix, do not justify any warranty obligation on the part of Modix.
(2) The Customer is only entitled to warranty claims if it has fulfilled its obligations to inspect and report defects .
(3) With justified and timely reporting of defects, the Customer has, during the warranty period, a right to subsequent performance. With this, Modix has the right to choose with regard to the type of subsequent performance-remedy the defects or delivery of the defect-free item. If the subsequent performance fails or if additional subsequent performance attempts are unacceptable/unreasonable for the Customer, the Customer is entitled to reduction, termination or withdrawal from the contract.
(4) If a claim is raised against Customer by its customer or by a user due to a defect in the delivered goods which was already present at the passing of the of risk or by a user making a complaint as end customer, Customer's statutory rights of recourse against Modix pursuant to §§ 478, 479 of the German Civil Code shall remain unaffected.
(5) The Customer can only assert claims for damages under the conditions laid down in 11 due to a defect if the subsequent performance has failed or Modix is refused the subsequent performance. Customer's right to assert additional claims for damages under the conditions laid down in §11 shall remain unaffected.
(6) The prescription period for defect claims is 1 year starting from the passing of the risk. This does not apply insofar as in accordance with §§ 438, paragraph 1, number 2(buildings and objects for buildings), 478, 479 (supplier's recourse) and 634 a, paragraph 1, number 2, German Civil Code (construction defects), the law prescribes longer periods such as in cases of injury to life, limb or health, of an intentional or grossly negligent breach of obligation by Modix and of fraudulent concealment of a defect.
(7) Customer's right to use Modix’s service/performance only exists within the scope of the prevailing state-of-the-art. Modix is not liable for the suitability of the service for a specific intended purpose unless this was explicitly agreed. Modix does not guarantee that the performance/service meets the Customer's requirements or reflects its expectations or is available continuously without interruption.
(8) Information in brochures and other documents is only for purposes of description and does not represent any guarantees. Guarantees require express written confirmation from Modix.
(9) Only the Customer Is entitled to claims against Modix due to defects and the claims are not assignable.
(1) Modix is only liable for damage/loss that occurs insofar as it is caused by the breach of a substantive contractual obligation or wilful or grossly negligent conduct by Modix, their legal representatives or vicarious agents. If a substantive contractual obligation is breached by simple negligence, then Modix’s liability is limited to the typical foreseeable contractual damage. A substantive contractual obligation is an obligation the fulfilment of which initially enables the proper performance of the contract or the compliance with which the Customer has and could rely on.
(2) Further liability for damages is precluded. Liability for tortious injury to life, limb or health in accordance with the statutory provisions, shall remain unaffected. This also applies to compulsory liability under the Product Liability Act.
(3) Modix does not check whether the content of the subject matter sent to it, in particular the Customer's pictures and text, violate any third party rights. The Customer alone is liable for the admissibility and holding harmless with regard to the content it sent, in particular with respect to copyright, competition law and criminal law.
(4) In the internal relationship, the Customer holds Modix harmless against all third-party claims, insofar Customer is liable for their basis. Insofar as a third-party raises a claim against Modix, the Customer must also bear the costs of the necessary legal defence, including all court costs and attorneys’ fees.
(1) Effective date is, as a rule, the date of receipt of the acceptance of an offer of Modix by the customer by fax, letter or e-mail according to §3 paragraph 2. In the case of the customisation (see §4 paragraph 5) the date of approval of the customisation to be developed or ready to be delivered shall be the effective date. This date also applies to the likely following orders as the date for the commencement of the contract, if the product is to be used in connection with the customisation only.
(2) Early termination of the contract with notice before the effective date shall not be allowed.
(3) A recurring obligation agreed with the customer concerning the performances of Modix ends with the expiry of the term agreed in the contract, provided that it is not terminated by one of the parties with notice 6 months before the end of the respective term. If the contract is not terminated with notice until 6 months before the end of the applicable term, the contract shall be assumed extended for a period originally intended in the same contract. Every termination must be carried out in writing with registered letter to be valid.
(4) The right for termination for exceptional reasons remains unaffected therefrom. Serious contract violations of the customer as well as the continuation of offences by the customer against contractual arrangements in spite of a warning letter by Modix as well as a decree of insolvency on the property and effects of the customer or if its initiation is rejected due to insufficiency of assets shall be accepted as an important reason for an extraordinary termination by Modix. Modix is entitled to extraordinary termination also if basic changes are initiated concerning the juridical or technical standards on the Internet which may not be accepted by Modix for its continued performance, in part or in full.
(5) If the customer is behind with the payment of the agreed reimbursement or a considerable portion of the reimbursement for 2 consecutive months or for a period which extends over more than 2 months, or is behind with the payment of the agreed reimbursement by an amount which totals the reimbursements of 2 months, Modix is entitled to terminate the contract without notice, and to claim immediately due a lump sum in damages totalling up to one quarter of the amounts remaining payable until the date of the expiry of the standard term of the contract. The amount of damage may be higher or lower, if Modix can document a higher amount of damages or the customer can prove otherwise.
(6) Modix is entitled to block the user account of the customer during the time of default of payment. The customer remains obliged to pay the agreed reimbursement also during the legitimate freezing of the account by Modix. Modix may not be held liable for damages inflicted on the customer because of the blocking of the user account.
(7) After the end of the contract the data of the customer shall immediately be blocked or deleted by Modix from the computers of Modix.

The customer shall be made aware by Modix particularly on this consequence.
(5) Special conditions may apply beside these terms of business for separate business dealings, as for example consultations, customisation, White Label, implying divergences from and/or supplements to these general terms and conditions. These shall be agreed with the customer separately in writing and shall be substituted in case of divergences for the corresponding provisions of these terms of business.
(6) Should one provision of the above terms of business or one provision of an agreement individually concluded between Modix and the customer be invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions of these terms of business or of the individual agreement shall not be affected.
