1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter "GTC") of Julia Hennemann, trading under "BiddyArtDesign" (hereinafter "Seller"), apply to all contracts for the delivery of goods that a consumer or entrepreneur ( hereinafter "customer") with the seller regarding the goods presented by the seller in his online shop. The inclusion of the customer's own conditions is hereby rejected, unless otherwise agreed.
1.2 These terms and conditions apply accordingly to contracts for the delivery of vouchers, unless otherwise regulated.
1.3 These GTC apply accordingly to contracts for the provision of digital content, unless otherwise regulated. Digital content within the meaning of these terms and conditions is data that is created and provided in digital form.
1.4 Within the meaning of these General Terms and Conditions, a consumer is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither commercial nor self-employed.
1.5 An 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 self-employed professional activity.
1.6 Depending on the seller's description of the content, the subject of the contract can be both the one-off provision of digital content and the regular provision of digital content (hereinafter "subscription contract"). With the subscription contract, the seller undertakes to provide the customer with the contractually owed digital content for the duration of the agreed contract period at the contractually agreed time intervals.
2) Conclusion of contract
2.1 The product descriptions contained in the seller's online shop do not represent binding offers on the part of the seller, but serve to enable the customer to submit a binding offer.
2.2 The customer can submit the offer via 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 with regard to the goods contained in the shopping cart by clicking the button that concludes the ordering process. Furthermore, the customer can also submit the offer to the seller by telephone, e-mail or online contact form.
2.3 The seller has five days to accept the customer's offer,
- by sending the customer a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or email), whereby receipt of the order confirmation by the customer is decisive, or
- by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, whereby receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive, or
- by asking the customer to pay after placing his order
If there are several of the above alternatives, the contract comes into effect at the point in time at which one of the above alternatives occurs first. The period for accepting the offer begins on the day after the customer has sent the offer and ends at the end of the fifth day following the sending of the offer. If the seller does not accept the customer's offer within the aforementioned period, this is considered a rejection of the offer with the result that the customer is no longer bound by his declaration of intent.
2.4 If you select a payment method offered by PayPal, the payment will 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 (hereinafter: "PayPal"), subject to the PayPal Terms of Use, available at https://www.paypal.com/de /webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full or - if the customer does not have a PayPal account - subject to the conditions for payments without a PayPal account at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacywax-full. If the customer pays using a payment method offered by PayPal that can be selected in the online ordering process, the seller already declares acceptance of the customer's offer at the point at which the customer clicks on the button that completes the ordering process.
2.5 When submitting an offer via the seller's online order form, the text of the contract is saved by the seller after the conclusion of the contract and sent to the customer in text form (e.g. e-mail, fax or letter). The seller does not make the contract text accessible beyond this. If the customer has set up a user account in the seller's online shop before sending his order, the order data will be archived on the seller's website and can be accessed free of charge by the customer via his password-protected user account by providing the corresponding login data.
2.6 Before submitting a binding 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 display on the screen is enlarged. The customer can correct his entries as part of the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until he clicks on the button that completes the ordering process.
2.7 German and English are available for the conclusion of the contract.

Such costs can also be incurred in relation to the transfer of money if the delivery is not made to a country outside the European Union, but the customer makes the payment from a country outside the European Union.
4.3 The payment option(s) will be communicated to the customer in the seller's online shop.
4.4 When selecting a payment method offered via the "PayPal" payment service, the payment is processed via PayPal, whereby PayPal can also use the services of third-party payment service providers for this purpose. If the seller also offers payment methods via PayPal in which he pays the customer in advance (e.g. purchase on account or payment by installments), he assigns his payment claim to PayPal or to the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal and specifically named to the customer. Before accepting the seller's declaration of assignment, PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal carries out a credit check using the transmitted customer data. The seller reserves the right to refuse the customer the selected payment method in the event of a negative test result. If the selected payment method is approved, the customer must pay the invoice amount within the agreed payment period or in the agreed payment intervals. In this case, he can only pay to PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal with debt-discharging effect. However, even if the claim is assigned, the seller remains responsible for general customer inquiries, e.g. B. to the goods, delivery time, shipment, returns, complaints, cancellation declarations and shipments or credit notes.
