The statutory law on liability for defects applies.

Information on any additional guarantees that may apply and their precise terms can be found with the respective product and on dedicated information pages in the online shop.
7. Liability
We are always liable without limitation for claims based on damage caused by us, our legal representatives or vicarious agents

- in the case of guarantee promises, where agreed, or
- insofar as the scope of the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz) applies.
In the event of a breach of material contractual obligations by slight negligence on the part of us, our legal representatives or vicarious agents — obligations whose fulfilment makes the proper performance of the contract possible in the first place and on whose observance the contracting party may regularly rely (cardinal obligations) — liability is limited in amount to the damage foreseeable at the time the contract was concluded and typically to be expected.
Otherwise, claims for damages are excluded.
8. Dispute resolution
The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution (ODR), which you can find here . Consumers have the option of using this platform to settle their disputes.
We are obliged to take part in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board in order to settle disputes arising from a contractual relationship with a consumer, or disputes as to whether such a contractual relationship exists at all. The competent body is the Universalschlichtungsstelle des Bundes at the Zentrum für Schlichtung e.V., Straßburger Straße 8, 77694 Kehl am Rhein, Germany, https://www.universalschlichtungsstelle.de/. We will take part in dispute resolution proceedings before this body.
Should individual clauses of these terms and conditions be wholly or partly invalid, the remainder of the contract shall remain valid. Insofar as individual clauses are invalid, the content of the contract shall be governed by the statutory provisions.
