4 Prices, terms of payment, retention of title

4.1 All prices on our website are net prices (excluding statutory VAT) in euros. For each order we charge a flat shipping fee of Euro 100 net for packaging, transport and insurance.

4.2 Parallel to the delivery of the goods, you will receive an invoice for the delivered goods and for any shipping and additional costs incurred. Delivery of the goods is usually made by invoice. Invoices are due in accordance with the terms stated on the OC and invoice and are payable to the account stated on the invoice. Prepayment – Here you have the option to pay for the goods before shipment. Please indicate this before ordering. As soon as the payment has been received on the objectiv bank account, your order will be released for production or shipment.

4.3 objectiv is entitled to charge a fee of 5.00 euros net for each reminder after the payment default has occurred, unless you prove to objectiv that objectiv had significantly lower or no expenses for the respective reminder. Further legal rights of objectiv due to your default of payment remain unaffected by this. In the event of a payment by direct debit authorisation and a return transfer of the bank debit by the credit institution for which you are responsible due to insufficient funds, you shall reimburse the bank charges invoiced by objectiv for the return transfer.

4.4 Until full payment has been made, the goods shall remain the property of objectiv. You are obliged to notify objectiv without delay, providing all details of seizures or other impairments of rights that enable objectiv to take action against by all legal means. If you do not fulfil your obligations under this contract with objectiv, objectiv may withdraw from the contract. Then your right to possession of the goods shall expire and objectiv may demand their return. In this case, objectiv shall be entitled to take possession of the goods and utilise them in the best possible way by private sale or auction, irrespective of your payment and other obligations. objectiv shall offset the proceeds against your liabilities after deducting any costs incurred; objectiv shall pay you any surplus.

4.5 You are only entitled to offsetting rights if your counterclaims are legally established, undisputed or recognised by objectiv. You are only entitled to exercise a right of retention insofar as your counterclaim is based on the same individual contractual relationship.

5.1Claims due to defects require that you inspect the goods immediately after acceptance and report any defects to objectiv without delay, but no later than 30 days after receipt of the goods (except for furniture). Hidden defects must be reported to objectiv immediately after their discovery.

5.2 Insofar as the goods are defective, objectiv shall be entitled, at its own discretion, to remedy the defect free of charge or to deliver defect-free goods as a replacement.

5.3 If objectiv has seriously and finally refused to remedy the defect or make a replacement delivery due to disproportionate costs or for other reasons, if the remedy of the defect or replacement delivery fails, if it is unreasonable for you or if there are special circumstances which justify the immediate assertion of rights other than those described in clause 5.2, taking into account the conflicting interests of both parties, you may choose to withdraw from the contract relating to the defective goods or reduce the purchase price in accordance with the statutory regulations.

6. Liability

6.1 objectiv shall be liable for damages caused by negligence, intent, gross negligence or due to a breach of duty by objectiv, a legal representative or agent of objectiv as well as for damages caused by the absence of a quality guaranteed by objectiv.

6.2 In the event of a breach of essential contractual obligations caused by slight negligence, objectiv’s liability shall be limited to the amount of the foreseeable damage typical for the contract, except in the cases of sections 6.1 or 6.4. Essential contractual obligations are, in the abstract, those obligations whose fulfilment makes the proper performance of the contract possible in the first place and on whose compliance the contracting parties may regularly rely.

6.3 Liability under the Product Liability Act remains unaffected. Any further liability for damages is excluded.

6.4 Objectiv shall be liable for the loss of data and its recovery only to the extent set out in clauses 6.1 to 6.4 and only to the extent that such loss could not have been avoided by reasonable precautionary measures taken by the buyer, in particular the backing up of all data and programs.
