§ 10 Return guarantee for customers within germany
(1) Insofar as Contractual Partner is a customer, Supplier offers a voluntary return guarantee for all goods in the ADA shop within Germany next to and beside the statutory right of withdrawal.

Timely posting is sufficient to keep the term.
(2) Contractual Partner can make use of the voluntary return guarantee only if he uses the process of reshipment that Supplier provides and offers.

If no label or any other information is attached to the consignment, then a prepared label can be requested from Supplier via e-mail or telephone.
(3) Excluded from the voluntary return guarantee are used, incomplete or damaged goods as well as goods that may quickly perish or goods for which the best before date has quickly lapsed as well as sealed goods, if the sealing was removed after delivery.
