Information on the regular costs of the return shipment:
We shall bear the regular costs of the return shipment for you if the returns sticker provided by us is used for the return shipment.
5. Prices/payment terms, invoice
5.1 The prices specified in the CLAAS Collection online shop are final prices in euros (including statutory VAT) subject to the addition of shipping costs. The costs for the shipment shall be displayed to the Customer on the respective product details page in the online shop when he/she clicks the “plus shipping costs” link. If shipment is carried out in several partial deliveries, the shipping costs shall only be charged once.
5.2 The following payment options are available to the Customer:
5.2.1 VISA/MasterCard credit cards: In the case of payment by VISA or MasterCard credit cards, your credit card will be charged when you conclude your order.
5.2.2 Paypal: If you make payment by PayPal, the time of payment is deemed to be the time of the order. If you choose PayPal as the payment method, the payment shall be processed via the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22–24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg, subject to the applicability of the PayPal terms of use which, if you have an existing PayPal account, can be accessed online at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full. Such payment requires, among other things, that the Customer open a PayPal account or already have such an account. If the Customer has no PayPal account the terms and conditions can be accessed at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacywax-full.
5.2.3 Prepayment: In the case of the prepayment payment method, CLAAS’ bank details shall be specified in the contract confirmation and the goods shall be delivered after payment is received. If, in the case of prepayment, payment is not received by the retailer within ten days from the receipt of the contract confirmation, the order shall be cancelled and the Customer shall be notified to that effect by e-mail.
5.3 Payments shall only be accepted from accounts within the European Union (EU).
5.4 CLAAS shall have the right to send the Customer the invoice as an electronic invoice (an invoice issued in an electronic format, e.g. as a PDF document) by e-mail.
6. Delivery and shipping terms
6.1 As a rule, the goods shall be delivered no later than within five (5) business days (Monday to Friday, public holidays excepted) after the conclusion of a contract within Germany.
Unless agreed otherwise, the delivery shall be made to the delivery address specified by the Customer in the order.
6.2 Deliveries shall only be carried out within the European Union. The maximum delivery period for delivery of goods outside Germany shall generally be ten (10) business days.
6.3 CLAAS shall have the right to make partial deliveries.
6.4 Once CLAAS has handed over the goods to the shipping company the Customer shall receive a shipping confirmation from CLAAS by e-mail and, if it is available and has been agreed, a link to the shipment tracking of the transport service provider showing the shipment status.
6.5 If, for reasons for which CLAAS is not responsible, it is unable to adhere to a binding delivery period (e.g. due to an event of force majeure), it shall promptly notify the Customer to that effect, specifying the new delivery period. If the new delivery period is not acceptable for the Customer, he/she shall have the right to rescind the contract with regard to the goods in question, in which case CLAAS shall promptly reimburse the Customer for any counterperformance already rendered by him/her. The statutory rights of the parties remain unaffected by this, for example any cancellation right of the Customer and the Customer’s statutory warranty rights.
7. Retention of ownership
Until the purchase price has been paid in full the delivered goods shall remain the property of CLAAS.
8. Information on liability for material defects and time limitation of claims
The provisions of law on liability for material defects and time limitation of claims apply.
9. Liability
9.1 CLAAS shall only be liable for compensation for losses:
a) in the event of wilful misconduct or gross negligence; or b) in the event of culpable loss of life or injury to the body or health; or c) if a defect has been fraudulently concealed; or d) within the scope of a possible guarantee commitment; or e) in the event of liability under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz); or f) in the event of a culpable violation of key contractual obligations (i.e. obligations whose fulfilment enable proper performance of the contract and upon whose fulfilment the Customer can generally rely), including in the event of a breach due to minor negligence, but in that case limited to the reasonably foreseeable losses typical for such a contract.
9.2 The limitation of liability also applies to claims for reimbursement of expenses under Section 284 BGB.
9.3 Otherwise, claims for compensation for losses are excluded, irrespective of the legal basis for such.
10. Discount coupons and their redemption
Discount coupons are coupon codes that entitle the holder to a particular percentage discount in the CLAAS online shop. They may not be purchased and may only be issued by CLAAS for one-off use or multiple uses, for example as part of advertising campaigns, with a particular validity period. Such coupons can then only be redeemed within the specified period during an order process and only before the completion of the purchasing process. Any subsequent crediting is not possible and the value of a discount coupon will not be paid out in cash or bear interest. It is not possible to combine several discount coupons. The resale of a discount coupon is not permitted.
CLAAS reserves the right to make the validity dependant on a minimum order value or to exclude particular products from the discount. On no account may coupons be used towards shipping costs and they may also not be used for the purchase of books, magazines or gift vouchers.
11. Minors
The goods offered in the online shop are directed exclusively at adults.
12. Applicable law
12.1 All legal relationships between CLAAS and the Customer are subject to the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, to the exclusion of the laws on the international purchase of movable goods (United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) of 11.04.1980).
12.2 The above choice of governing law does not limit the mandatory protection of foreign consumer laws that would be applicable to the contractual relationship with the Customer without a choice of governing law.
13. Information on online dispute resolution
13.1 The EU Commission provides an internet platform for online dispute resolution (OS platform). This platform is intended to serve as a point of contact for out-of-court settlement of disputes in connection with contractual obligations stemming from online purchase contracts. The OS platform can be accessed via the following link: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.
13.2 The e-mail address used by CLAAS is specified under contact details and in the legal notice. CLAAS is neither willing nor obliged to settle disputes with consumers before an arbitration body.
14. Data protection
CLAAS complies with the provisions of law with regard to the processing of the Customer’s personal data, including the contract data (e.g. order, delivery, invoice and payment information). Details can be found in the privacy policy, which can be accessed under “data protection”.
