Terms & Conditions
​
As of: 10.10.2022
​
These conditions
​
(1) This website (the "Site") and/or the Services, including any associated mobile applications (collectively: the "Services") and any offers and sales of products ("Products") through the Site, is owned and operated by ALTRA Studios e.U. (hereinafter also: "we", "us" and "our(s)"). These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") set forth the terms and conditions under which visitors or users (collectively, "Users" or "you") may visit or use the Site and/or the Services and purchase Products.
​
(2) By accessing or using the Services, you agree to be bound by the Terms. If you do not agree to all of the Terms, you may not access the Site and/or use the Services. Please read these Terms carefully before accessing our Site or using the Services or purchasing any Products. These Terms tell you who we are, how we sell products to you, how you can cancel the purchase agreement, and what you can do if you have a problem.
​
(3) You represent that you are of legal age and have the legal authority, right and freedom to enter into a binding agreement based on these Terms and to use the Services and purchase Products. If you are a minor, you need the permission of your parents or a legal guardian to use the Services or purchase Products.
​
Product purchase
​
(1) The purchase of Products is subject to the terms and conditions applicable at the time.
(2) If you purchase a Product: (i) you are responsible for reading the item description in full before making a binding purchase; and (ii) the completion of an order on the Site (by completing a payment transaction via the "Order for Charge" button or similar button) may constitute a legally binding contract for the purchase of the relevant Product, unless these Terms provide otherwise.
(3) You may, by clicking on the relevant button, select products from our product selection and place them in the shopping cart. Our prices are listed on the Site. We reserve the right to change our prices at any time and to correct any unintentional pricing errors. These changes will not affect the price of products you have previously purchased. When you check out, you will be shown an overview of all the products you have added to your shopping cart. The overview includes the main features of each product as well as the total price for all products, the applicable sales tax (VAT)/value added tax (VAT) and shipping costs, if any. On the payment page you also have the possibility to check the products and quantities and, if necessary, change, remove or correct them. You can also still use the edit function to identify and correct any input errors before placing your final binding order. All stated delivery times are valid from the receipt of your payment of the purchase price. When you click on the "Order with costs" button, you place a binding order to purchase the listed products at the indicated price and shipping costs. To complete the ordering process via the "Order with costs" button, you must first accept these terms and conditions as legally binding for your order by checking the appropriate box.
(4) We will then send you a confirmation of receipt of your order by e-mail, in which your order is listed once again and which you can then print out or save using the corresponding function. Please note that this is an automatic notification which only proves that we have received your order. It does not indicate that we have accepted your order.
(5) The legally binding agreement on the purchase of the Products is not concluded until we send you a declaration of acceptance by e-mail or ship the Products to you. We reserve the right not to accept your order. This does not apply in cases where we offer a payment method - and you choose this payment method for your order - where a payment process is initiated immediately upon transmission of your order (e.g. electronic transfer or real-time transfer via PayPal, Giropay, Paydirekt). In this case, the legally binding agreement shall be deemed concluded when you have initiated the ordering process, as described above, by clicking the "Order with costs" button.
​
(6) The purchase agreement can be concluded in German. After the conclusion of the contract, the terms of the contract will be stored by us, you will then no longer have access to them.
​
Warranty for products
​
We are liable under the statutory warranty provisions for defects in quality and/or title of the products you purchase from us.
