Any deviating conditions of the customer – provided that he is an entrepreneur– shall not be acknowledged unless the provider expressly approves their validity in writing.

(2) The customer shall be deemed a consumer to the extent that the purpose of the ordered deliveries and performances cannot be attributed to his commercial or independent professional activity. Conversely, an entrepreneur is any natural person or legal entity or joint partnership with legal capacity who, upon conclusion of the contract, is acting in execution of its commercial or independent professional activity.

§ 2 SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CONTRACT/CONCLUSION OF CONTRACT
(1) All offers from Smake are non-binding and subject to change. Technical changes as well as changes in form, colour and/or weight are reserved within the scope of reasonableness.

(2) With the order of a commodity and/or achievement the customer explains obligatorily to want to acquire the ordered commodity and/or achievement and to recognize the AGBs. Orders of the customer are offers to conclude a corresponding contract. Smake reserves the right to accept or reject the offer within two weeks after receipt. The acceptance can be declared either expressly in writing or by beginning with the processing of the order and/or delivery of the goods to the customer.

(3) If the customer orders the commodity and/or achievement on electronic way, b2b will confirm the entrance of the order immediately. The confirmation of receipt does not represent a binding acceptance of the order. The confirmation of receipt can be combined with the declaration of acceptance.

(4) The conclusion of the contract takes place under the reservation of the correct and timely delivery by the suppliers of Smake. This is only valid in case Smake is not responsible for the non-delivery, especially when a congruent covering transaction is concluded with a supplier. The customer is informed immediately about the unavailability of the achievement. Any consideration already rendered will be refunded immediately.

(5) If the customer orders the goods and/or services electronically, the text of the contract will be saved by Smake and sent to the customer on request together with the present GTC by e-mail.

(6) Changes and additions to the contractual relationship must be in written form. If they do not satisfy this, then they are correct. This applies also to changes of this written form clause.
