1) Scope
1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter “GTC”) of Stephanie Zädow, trading under “Zädow Automotive” (hereinafter “Seller”), apply to all contracts for the delivery of goods that a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter “Customer”) has with the Seller concludes with regard to the goods presented by the seller in his online shop. The inclusion of the customer's own terms and conditions is hereby objected to, unless otherwise agreed.
1.2 A consumer within the meaning of these General Terms and Conditions is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither commercial nor self-employed. Entrepreneur within the meaning of these terms and conditions is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.

2) Conclusion of contract
2.1 The product descriptions contained in the seller's online shop do not constitute a binding offer from the seller, but serve as a binding offer by the customer.
2.2 The customer can submit the offer using the online order form integrated in the seller's online shop. After placing the selected goods in the virtual shopping cart and going through the electronic ordering process, the customer submits a legally binding contract offer for the goods in the shopping cart by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process. The customer can also submit the offer to the seller by phone, fax, email, post or online contact form.
2.3 The seller can accept the offer of the customer within five days,
- by sending the customer a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or email), whereby the customer's receipt of the order confirmation is decisive, or
- by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, whereby the receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive, or
- by asking the customer to pay after placing his order.
Where several of the above alternatives are present, the contract shall come into force at the time when one of the above alternatives occurs first. The deadline for the acceptance of the offer begins on the day after the submission of the offer by the customer and ends with the expiry of the fifth day following the submission of the offer. If the seller does not accept the offer of the customer within the aforementioned deadline, this shall be deemed a rejection of the offer with the result that the customer is no longer bound to his consent.
2.4 When placing an offer via the seller's online order form, the contract text will be stored by the seller after conclusion of the contract and sent to the customer in writing (eg by e-mail, fax or letter) after the order has been placed. Any further provision of the contract by the seller is not possible.
2.5 Before the binding submission of the order via the seller's online order form, the customer can identify possible input errors by carefully reading the information displayed on the screen. An effective technical means for better recognition of input errors can be the enlargement function of the browser, with the help of which the representation on the screen is enlarged.
