Terms & Conditions | ZREALITY GmbH - We make brands come alive in 3D/XR
ZREALITY GmbH General terms and conditions of business
These terms and conditions apply to all services and deliveries of goods (online products/SaaS solutions) of ZREALITY. Legal transactions (delivery, invoicing, etc.) are carried out by ZREALITY GmbH in its own name for the account of third parties (commission).
1. Order; conclusion of contract
1.1 The presentation of the products in the online shop is not a legally binding offer, but a non-binding online catalogue. By clicking on the button “Buy” / “Order subject to payment” you place a binding order of the goods contained in the shopping cart. The confirmation of receipt of the order follows immediately after sending the order and does not constitute acceptance of the contract. We can accept your order by sending an order confirmation by e-mail/letter/fax within 3 working days. In the case of electronic orders via the Internet, the text of the contract is stored after conclusion of the contract and can be retrieved by the customer at ZREALITY GmbH.
1.2 If available, the ordered goods or services shall be delivered or rendered immediately. We reserve the right to refrain from executing an order if the goods or services are no longer in stock, out of print or available. In this case the customer will be informed about the unavailability. Binding delivery dates must be agreed in writing. If the order is placed via the Internet, the expected delivery date can be found in the order offer.
1.3 Software is up to date upon delivery. In order to keep it up-to-date, the customer automatically participates in the subscription/update service according to the respective product description. The scope and price of the respective updates correspond to the information in the order offer (Internet shop).
1.4 The customer sometimes has the possibility to access content from third party providers. For this purpose he may be redirected to the servers of these third party providers. Should additional costs arise for the contents of the third party providers (e.g. Paypal), the customer will be informed of this by appropriate notices.
2. Viewing period/test phase
If a viewing period/test phase is specified in the order offer (e.g. “Test now 4 weeks. Free of charge!”), the customer has a viewing period/test phase that depends on the offer when he purchases the product for the first time. During the viewing period/test phase the customer can test the ordered products extensively.
3. Customer account; access to online products/SaaS solutions
3.1 Via the online customer account, the registered customer can carry out all activities (administration of orders, cancellations or returns, changes of addresses and methods of payment, checking the account balance, downloading invoices, etc.) online himself.
3.2 The use of the online customer account and online products/SaaS solutions requires registration. The registration of a legal entity may only be carried out by an authorized natural person who must be named by name. We may refuse to accept registrations if there is a factual reason for doing so, e.g. if incorrect information is provided or if there is a fear that payment obligations will probably not be met.
3.3 The customer’s access to the online customer account and/or the online products/SaaS solutions is password-protected via the Internet. The customer is obliged to keep his access data and password secret and to protect them from misuse by third parties. In this context we would like to point out that our employees are not authorized to request passwords by telephone or in writing. When choosing a password, the generally known rules should be observed (length, complexity of the password), changes to the password are only possible online within the customer account. The customer must inform us immediately if the access data or password are lost or if there is a suspicion of misuse of these data. Otherwise, we are entitled to block access to the customer account or to the online products/SaaS solutions in the event of misuse. The customer is liable for misuse for which he is responsible.
4.1 As payment methods we currently offer payment by invoice/direct debit, Paypal and credit card. If a payment method by direct debit is chosen, we use the SEPA direct debit procedure. We will inform you of this in good time before a SEPA direct debit is executed, usually five days in advance.
4.2 The delivery shall be effected at the gross end price valid at the time (net price plus statutory value added tax). We expressly reserve the right to adjust the respective prices for the products annually in an appropriate manner, even for existing subscription/update services. This right to adjust prices shall also apply in particular in the event of demonstrable increases in production, shipping and labour costs.
4.3 The customer is not entitled to withhold payments unless he is entitled to a legal right of retention from the same contractual relationship. Offsetting is only permitted if the claim with which offsetting is to be made is undisputed or has been established as final and absolute. Costs for unauthorised return debit notes are to be borne by the customer.
4.4 All deliveries are made at the expense of the customer. The actual shipping costs can be found in the respective order offer.
5.1 In the case of a contract for continuous delivery for an indefinite period (subscription/update service), a minimum subscription/minimum usage period of 12 months is agreed, unless otherwise agreed in the order offer.
5.2 The contract can be terminated with a notice period of 3 months for the future, unless the contract contains a specially agreed notice period. Any deliveries still received after the termination of the contract must then be returned. Otherwise, the contract shall be automatically extended by a further 12 months or by the respective period stated in the order offer.
5.3 In the event of termination of a contract with an agreed period of notice or minimum usage period, the customer shall continue to be entitled to the contractually agreed services until the end of the remaining contractual term.
5.4 Each termination must be made in text form (letter, fax, e-mail). Furthermore, for most products, cancellations/terminations can be made in the customer account (online). A refusal to accept or non-use of deliveries and services shall not be considered as termination. Without a cancellation received in time, the contract period is automatically extended.
The unrestricted ownership until the complete fulfilment of all payment obligations remains reserved. In the case of deliveries/services to resellers, the latter shall be entitled to resell the goods/services in the ordinary course of business. He is basically authorized to collect the claims. As a precaution, the reseller assigns all claims against his customers in the amount of the invoice value of the goods (extended reservation of title).
