  1. Terms of Delivery and Shipment – Information on Calculating the Delivery Date
  • Digital contents (such as e-books or other files) are delivered by means of a download link or attachment being sent by email.
  • Unless agreed otherwise with the CUSTOMER,
  • goods that are delivered in a package or otherwise by post shall be delivered by post (as a package, parcel or letter, or by a forwarding agent, etc.) to the delivery address provided by the CUSTOMER when placing the order.
  • The delivery time for the items or products in question shall be specified separately on the item or product page or in the product description.
  • The delivery time specified on the item or product page shall start upon pre-payment on the working day following the CUSTOMER’s payment order to the transferring bank or – in the case of all other payment methods – on the working day after the contract is concluded.
  • The risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold item shall be transferred to the ENTREPRENEUR or an authorized recipient upon handover to the same in the case of deliveries to ENTREPRENEURS, and shall be transferred to a suitable transport party when the goods are delivered in the case of sales shipment. In the case of deliveries to CONSUMERS, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the sold item shall be transferred to the CONSUMER upon handover of the goods to the same in accordance with Section 446 of the German Civil Code. With regard to the transfer of risk, handover is equivalent to the CUSTOMER being delayed in accepting the goods.
  • Orders and deliveries shall only be offered within and to Germany and in the countries specified in the online shop and/or in the table of shipping costs.
  • The SELLER shall immediately inform the CUSTOMER if there are any delays in delivery.
  • If the carrier returns the purchase object to the SELLER because it was impossible to deliver to the CUSTOMER, the CUSTOMER shall bear the costs for renewed shipping. This does not apply if – at the same time as declining acceptance – the CUSTOMER exercises any existing right of revocation, if the circumstances leading to delivery being impossible are not attributable to the CUSTOMER or if the CUSTOMER was temporarily prevented from accepting the offered service unless the SELLER announced the service to the same in due time.

8. Reservation of Ownership

  • The SELLER reserves ownership of the sold items until the purchase price has been paid in full.
  • The CUSTOMER may neither pledge the goods that are subject to the reservation of ownership to third parties nor assign them by way of security until they have paid the secured receivables in full. The CUSTOMER shall immediately notify the SELLER in text form if and to the extent to which third parties have access to the SELLER’s goods.
  • If the CUSTOMER’s conduct is contrary to the contract – particularly in the event of non-payment of the due purchase price – the SELLER is, in accordance with the legal regulations, entitled to withdraw from the contract and demand the goods on the grounds of reservation of ownership and rescission of the contract. If the CUSTOMER does not pay the due purchase price, the SELLER may only assert these rights if the CUSTOMER

was previously and ineffectively given a reasonable period of time in which to make payment or if setting such a deadline is superfluous in line with the legal regulations.

9.   Warranty / Liability for Defects / Obligation to Give Notice of Defects

  • If the purchased item exhibits defects, rights shall be based on the provisions of law.
  • For claims for defects to be asserted by ENTREPRENEURS who are traders within the meaning of the German Commercial Code, they must have properly and in writing fulfilled their obligations with respect to inspection and giving notice of defects incumbent upon them as per Section 377 of the German Commercial Code within 14 calendar days of receipt of the goods. This obligation to give notice of defects does not apply to CUSTOMERS who are CONSUMERS within the meaning of Section 13 of the German Civil Code.
  • The limitation period for claims for defects asserted by ENTREPRENEURS is 12 months starting from such time that risk was transferred to the ENTREPRENEUR. Any shortening of the warranty obligation does not apply to CUSTOMERS who are CONSUMERS within the meaning of Section 13 of the German Civil Code.

10. Liability

  • Outside of warranty law, the CUSTOMER’s claims for damages or reimbursement of fruitless expenditures that are asserted against the SELLER are based on these provisions regardless of the legal nature of the claim.
  • Regardless of the legal reasons, the SELLER’s liability is excluded unless the cause of damage is due to intent and/or gross negligence on the part of the SELLER, its employees, its representatives or its vicarious agents. If the SELLER’s liability is excluded or limited, this also applies to the personal liability of the SELLER’s employees, representatives or vicarious agents. The SELLER’s liability according to the Product Liability Act remains unaffected by this (Section 14 of the Product Liability Act).
  • The SELLER shall be held liable in accordance with the statutory provisions for damages that arise from injury to life, limb and health and that are due to an intentional, grossly negligent or negligent breach of duty on the part of the SELLER or a legal representative or vicarious agent of the same.
  • If the SELLER has at least negligently violated an essential contractual obligation – in other words, an obligation which is extremely important to fulfill for the purpose of the contract to be achieved (an essential contractual obligation or a major obligation) – the liability shall be limited to typically occurring damages – i.e. to such damages that have to be typically expected to occur in the context of the contract. An essential contractual obligation or a major obligation as defined above is one whose fulfillment facilitates the proper performance of the present contract in the first place and on the fulfillment of which the CUSTOMER relies and may rely on a regular basis.

11. Data Storage and Data Protection

Only the data protection regulations set down in the data privacy policy on the website www.nathaliescuisine.com shall apply.

12.  Note according to Art. 14 of the ODR Regulation

  • In the event of dispute, CUSTOMERS who are CONSUMERS within the meaning of Section 13 of the German Civil Code can carry out online arbitration proceedings in consultation with a recognized arbitration body on the EU’s “Your Europe” portal (http://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/index_de.htm). They can use the EU’s online arbitration platform for this purpose. It is available at: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/.
  • The online arbitration proceedings are not a binding requirement for appealing to responsible general jurisdiction courts; rather, such proceedings provide an alternative way of settling differences that may occur in the context of a contractual relationship.
  • Other national regulations relating to carrying out arbitration proceedings remain unaffected by the above regulations set down in Paragraphs 12.1 and 2.

13.     Final Provisions

  • The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies to the exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
  • In the case of CONSUMERS who do not conclude the contract for professional or commercial purposes, the above choice of law shall only apply insofar as the protection provided by the mandatory provisions of the law in the state where the CONSUMER has their habitual residence is not withdrawn.
  • If the CUSTOMER is a trader, a legal person under public law or a special asset under public law, the sole place of jurisdiction for any and all disputes arising from this contract is the SELLER’s place of business in 6521209 Tel Aviv,
  • The same applies if the CUSTOMER is an ENTREPRENEUR and does not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany or if their domicile or habitual residence is not known at such time that the claim is raised. The SELLER’s entitlement to appeal to the court at another legal place of jurisdiction remains unaffected by this too.
