  1. The following General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "GTC") shall apply exclusively to the business relationship between Dr. Hanna Shauchenka (The Second Draft), c/o flexdienst – #21191, Kurt-Schumacher-Straße 76, 67663 Kaiserslautern, Germany (hereinafter referred to as "Vendor") and the purchaser, who is hereinafter referred to as "Customer", of the Vendor's products.

  3. All personal terms apply equally to both genders. For reasons of better readability, the simultaneous use of masculine and feminine forms of language has been dispensed with.
  4. A "Consumer" within the meaning of these GTC is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither attributable to his commercial nor to his independent professional activity.
  5. "Entrepreneur" within the meaning of the GTC is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of his commercial or self-employed professional activity.

  7. Regardless of the terminology used in the GTC, such as "Vendor", the legal classification of the contract and the applicable statutory regulations are always determined by the legal requirements of the respective types of contracts.

3. General Information on Offers and Orders

  1. The presentation and promotion of products on the Vendor’s websites as well as in digital or printed informational materials does not constitute a binding offer to conclude a contract, but rather a non-binding invitation to the Customer to submit an offer for the purchase of the displayed goods.
  2. Customers are responsible for ensuring that the information they provide is accurate and for notifying the Vendor of any changes, where such changes are required for the fulfilment of the contract. In particular, Customers must ensure that the e-mail addresses, delivery addresses and shipping addresses provided are correct and that any obstacles to receipt for which the Customer is responsible are duly considered (e.g. by checking the spam folder of their e-mail software).
  3. Customers are requested to carefully read and observe the instructions during the ordering process and, if necessary, to use the available support functions of their software and hardware (e.g. magnification or read-aloud functions). Required information will be appropriately identified as such by the Seller for the Customers (e.g. by optical highlighting and/or asterisk signs). Until the order is submitted, the Customers can change and view the product selection and their entries at any time, as well as go back in the ordering process or cancel the ordering process altogether. For this purpose, the Customers can use the available and common functions of their software and/or end device (e.g. the forward and back buttons of the browser or keyboard, mouse and gesture functions on mobile devices). Furthermore, unwanted entries can be corrected by canceling the ordering process.

4. Ordering Process and Conclusion of Contract

  1. The Customer can select from the products offered in the Vendor's assortment to the Customer and collect them in a so-called shopping basket. In the selection within the shopping basket, the product selection can be changed, e.g. deleted. Otherwise, the customer can initiate the completion of the order process.
  2. By clicking the button that concludes the order process, the Customer submits a binding offer to purchase the products contained in the shopping cart or in a corresponding selection overview to the Vendor.
  3. The Service Provider accepts the Customer’s offer, whichever of the following events occurs first: (i) by means of an express declaration of acceptance in text form (e.g. by e-mail), (ii) by completion of the payment process, (iii) by a payment request addressed to the Customer, (iv) in the case of goods orders, by dispatching them; in the case of services, by commencement thereof; and otherwise by making the product available as contractually agreed. The Service Provider may accept the Customer’s offer within the acceptance period. The acceptance period is five days. The acceptance period begins upon completion of the ordering process by the Customer and ends at midnight on its last day. If the Service Provider does not accept the Customer’s offer within the acceptance period, no contract shall be concluded and the Customer shall no longer be bound by their offer.

5. Contract Text and Contract Language

  1. The Vendor stores the contract text (in particular the order data, product information, prices, these GTC as well as other legally required mandatory information) and makes it available to the Customer in text form, by email or at the latest upon delivery of the order or provision of the ordered service.
  2. If Customers have created a customer account, they can view their placed orders in their account. The full text of the contract is not accessible in the account area.
  3. The contractual language is English, contracts can be concluded in this language.

6. Digital Contents

  1. "Digital Contents" is content such as software, video as well as audio content, e-books or apps if it is provided digitally, e.g. as a download or stream (i.e. not delivered on data carriers such as CDs or Blu-Rays).
  2. The provisions of these GTC apply accordingly to the sale of Digital Content.
  3. Digital Contents are provided to the Customer in the form of a download possibility.
  4. Digital content is delivered to the buyer in the form of a continuous stream of data, referred to as a "Streaming".
  5. The Vendor is entitled to subsequently adapt and change Digital Contents, provided that this is necessary for the Vendor (e.g. updates of a technical nature, corrections of a linguistic nature or compelling legal reasons which make an adaptation of contents necessary) and is reasonable for the Customer and the contractual use of the Products as well as the contractual equity are not impaired.
  6. The Digital Content will be made available to the Customer Account, provided that a Customer Account has been created.
  7. The Customer will be informed expressly and with reasonable advance notice before the possibility of accessing the purchased Digital Content expires.
  8. For the use of the Digital Content, access to the Internet as well as common and usual display options that are reasonable for the Customer (e.g. a browser or PDF display software) are required. The Vendor assumes no responsibility for any impediments to accessing or retrieving Digital Content if such impediments are the responsibility of the Purchaser (this applies in particular to the Purchaser's access to the Internet).

7. Customer Account

  1. The Vendor provides the Customer with a Customer account. Within the Customer account, the Customer is provided with information about the orders and their Customer data stored with the Vendor. The information stored in the Customer account is not public.
  2. Customers can also place an order as a guest without having to create a Customer account.
  3. Customers are obligated to provide truthful information in their Customer account and to adjust the information in case of changes in the actual circumstances, as far as this is necessary (e.g. the changed email address in case of a change or the changed postal address before an order). Customers are responsible for any disadvantages that may arise due to incorrect information.
  4. Customers are responsible for their customer accounts within their sphere of influence and to the extent that it is reasonable for them to assume responsibility. It is the customers' responsibility to use the access data for their customer account with the utmost care and to take any measures to ensure the confidential and secure handling of the data and to prevent disclosure to third parties. Customers are required to inform the Vendor immediately if there is reason to suspect that a third party has knowledge of access data and/or is misusing the customer account.
  5. The Customer account may only be used in accordance with the applicable legal provisions, in particular the regulations for the protection of third-party rights, and subject to the Vendor's GTC, using the access masks and other technical access options provided by the Vendor. Any other type of use, in particular by external software such as bots or crawlers, is prohibited.
  6. When customers store, share or otherwise publish content or information in their customer account, they are responsible for that content. Depending on technical capabilities, this content includes texts, images and personal details. The seller does not endorse the customers' content and does not identify with it. However, the seller reserves the right to take necessary actions in cases of legal issues or threats to third parties.These actions are based on carefully selected criteria with the aim of ensuring that each action is justified. It is assessed whether an action is necessary to resolve the problem or avert the danger. Furthermore, it is evaluated whether the action is proportionate to the seriousness of the problem or threat. Care is also taken to ensure that it is carried out with due diligence and after a thorough assessment of all relevant information and circumstances. Finally, the action must be based on an objective and unbiased assessment of the situation.Possible actions include deleting the relevant content, requests for statements or corrections, warnings, legal steps or even bans from premises. In deciding upon these measures, the seller takes into careful consideration the requirements of the situation and the rights and interests of all parties involved. In particular, customers' fundamental rights are taken into account in order to ensure a fair and equitable solution.

8. Prices and Shipping Costs

All prices are final prices. The seller is subject to the sales tax small business regulation and therefore does not specify sales tax, or VAT.

When using financial institutions and other payment service providers, the terms and conditions and data protection information of the payment service providers also apply with regard to payment. Customers are requested to observe these regulations and notes as well as information within the framework of the payment process.

  1. The documents, instructions, informational materials, products and media – such as photographs, images, graphics, videos or audio recordings (hereinafter referred to as "Protected Content") – provided by the Vendor to the Customer may, unless expressly agreed otherwise, be used exclusively for the individual and contractual use by the Customer. In addition, they are protected by intellectual property rights, in particular copyright. The rights of use and exploitation of the Protected Content remain with the Vendor or the respective rights holders. The Customer undertakes to acknowledge and observe these usage restrictions as well as the intellectual property rights.
  2. The Customer is granted simple rights of use to utilise the acquired Protected Content for contractual purposes. Any further use or exploitation of the Protected Content is not permitted. In particular, Protected Content may not be reproduced, distributed, made publicly accessible on the internet or intranets, or otherwise made available to third parties.
  3. The Customer is not authorised to modify the Protected Content in terms of content, technology or editorial aspects, unless this is strictly necessary for contractual use, expressly permitted by the rights holder or allowed by law.
  4. The Vendor expressly reserves the right to use the Protected Content for commercial text and data mining. Text and data mining is the automated analysis of individual or multiple digital or digitised works in order to obtain information from them, particularly regarding patterns, trends and correlations. In particular, the Protected Content may not be used for the development, training, programming, improvement and/or enrichment of AI systems (including but not limited to generative AI systems) that can directly or indirectly output content, regardless of whether such content is protected by copyright. Furthermore, the purchaser undertakes to take reasonable and necessary measures to ensure that the acquired Protected Content is not subjected to text and data mining. This includes, for example, incorporating corresponding notices into their own terms of use and ensuring that employees are appropriately instructed (especially in relation to digital content). The specific details depend on the type of Protected Content and the nature of its use.
  5. If the Protected Content is subject to a specific usage licence, Customers will be informed about the usage licence. In the event of any conflict between the usage licence and these Terms and Conditions, the provisions of the usage licence shall prevail.
  6. If the Vendor provides services in advance, the Customer shall receive a simple, non-transferable and revocable right to use the Protected Content until full payment of the remuneration owed has been made.
  7. If there is a justified suspicion of misuse or a significant breach of these provisions for the protection of Protected Content, the Service Provider is entitled to take appropriate verification and protective measures until the suspicion has been clarified. In the event of serious breaches or breaches that continue despite a warning, the Service Provider is entitled to terminate the contractual relationship without notice. The Customer shall be liable for damages incurred by the Service Provider as a result of a culpable breach of duty attributable to them.

11. Instructions on Withdrawal

  1. The information regarding the right of withdrawal for consumers is set out in the withdrawal policy of the Vendor. Customers are informed about this in accordance with statutory requirements.
  2. The provisions of these GTC do not limit the statutory rights of withdrawal, cancellation, termination, warranty, and defects as well as other mandatory rights of the Customer and their related payment and other claims, and are subordinate to these rights.

12. Warranty and Liability

  1. The warranty (liability for defects) and liability for other poor performance are subject to statutory provisions, except as otherwise provided.
  2. The Vendor shall not be liable for the Customer's Internet connection or the software and hardware used by the Customer or any disruptions caused by them to the conclusion or performance of the contract between the Customer and the Vendor.
  3. The Vendor shall be liable for damages without limitation insofar as the cause of the damage is based on intent or gross negligence. Furthermore, the Vendor shall be liable for the slightly negligent breach of essential obligations, the breach of which endangers the achievement of the purpose of the contract, for the breach of obligations, the fulfilment of which makes the proper performance of the contract possible in the first place and on the compliance with which the customer regularly relies (cardinal obligations) or in the case of agreed guarantee commitments. In this case, however, the Vendor shall only be liable for the foreseeable, contract-typical and expectable damage. The Vendor shall not be liable for the slightly negligent breach of obligations other than those mentioned above. The above limitations of liability shall not apply in the event of injury to life, limb or health, for a defect following the assumption of a guarantee for the quality of the product and in the event of fraudulently concealed defects. Liability under the product liability law remains unaffected. Insofar as the Vendor's liability is excluded or limited, this shall also apply to the personal liability of employees, representatives and vicarious agents. In all other respects, claims for damages by the Customer shall be excluded. The above liability provisions shall also apply to claims for damages by the Customer under the Vendor's statutory warranty.
