1) Scope
1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter "GTC") of Kioki Coffee UG (limited liability) (hereinafter "Seller") apply to all contracts for the delivery of goods that a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter "Customer") concludes with the Seller with regard to the goods presented by the Seller in his online shop. The inclusion of the Customer's own conditions is hereby contradicted, unless otherwise agreed.
1.2 These General Terms and Conditions shall apply accordingly to contracts for the delivery of vouchers, unless otherwise agreed.
1.3 A consumer within the meaning of these General Terms and Conditions is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that can predominantly neither be attributed to their commercial nor their independent professional activity.
1.4 An entrepreneur within the meaning of these General 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 his or her commercial or independent professional activity.
2) Conclusion of contract
2.1 The product descriptions contained in the seller's online shop do not constitute binding offers on the part of the seller, but serve to submit a binding offer by the customer.
2.2 The customer can submit the offer using the online order form integrated into the seller's online shop. After placing the selected goods in the virtual shopping cart and completing the electronic ordering process, the customer submits a legally binding contract offer in relation to the goods contained in the shopping cart by clicking the button that completes the ordering process. The customer can also submit the offer to the seller by email, online contact form or by telephone.
2.3 The Seller may accept the Customer’s offer within five days,
- by sending the customer a written order confirmation or an order confirmation in text form (fax or e-mail), whereby the receipt of the order confirmation by the customer is decisive, or
- by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, whereby the receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive, or
- by requesting payment from the customer after placing his order.
If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract is concluded at the time at which one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. The period for accepting the offer begins on the day after the offer is sent by the customer and ends on the expiry 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 deemed to be a rejection of the offer with the consequence 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 rl et Cie, SCA, 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (hereinafter: “PayPal”), subject to the PayPal Terms of Use, which can be viewed 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, available 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 during the online ordering process, the seller hereby declares acceptance of the customer's offer at the time the customer clicks the button that completes the ordering process.
2.5 When submitting an offer via the seller's online order form, the contract text is saved by the seller after the contract has been concluded and sent to the customer in text form (e.g. email, fax or letter) after the order has been sent. The seller will not make the contract text available beyond this. If the customer has set up a user account in the seller's online shop before sending their order, the order data will be archived on the seller's website and can be accessed free of charge by the customer via their password-protected user account by entering the relevant login data.
2.6 Before submitting the 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 identifying input errors can be the browser's zoom function, which helps to enlarge the display on the screen. The customer can correct his entries as part of the electronic ordering process using the usual keyboard and mouse functions until he clicks the button that completes the ordering process.
2.7 Different languages are available for concluding the contract. The specific language selection is displayed in the online shop.
2.8 Order processing and contact are usually carried out via email and automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the email address provided for order processing is correct so that emails sent by the seller can be received at this address. In particular, when using SPAM filters, the customer must ensure that all emails sent by the seller or by third parties commissioned by the seller to process the order can be delivered.
3) Right of withdrawal
3.1 Consumers generally have a right of withdrawal.
3.2 Further information on the right of withdrawal can be found in the seller’s cancellation policy.
3.3 The right of withdrawal does not apply to consumers who, at the time the contract is concluded, are not members of a member state of the European Union and whose sole place of residence and delivery address are outside the European Union at the time the contract is concluded.
4) Prices and payment terms
4.1 Unless otherwise stated in the seller's product description, the prices stated are total prices that include statutory sales tax. Any additional delivery and shipping costs that may arise are stated separately in the respective product description.
4.2 For deliveries to countries outside the European Union, additional costs may arise in individual cases for which the seller is not responsible and which must be borne by the customer. These include, for example, costs for the transfer of money by credit institutions (e.g. transfer fees, exchange rate fees) or import duties or taxes (e.g. customs duties). Such costs may also arise 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 If a payment method offered via the “PayPal” payment service is selected, payment is processed via PayPal, although PayPal can also use the services of third-party payment service providers for this purpose. If the seller also offers payment methods via PayPal for which he makes advance payments to the customer (e.g. purchase on account or payment by instalments), 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 customer data transmitted. The seller reserves the right to refuse the customer the selected payment method if the test result is negative. If the selected payment method is approved, the customer must pay the invoice amount within the agreed payment period or at the agreed payment intervals. In this case, he can only pay to PayPal or the payment service provider commissioned by PayPal with a debt-discharging effect. However, even in the event of an assignment of claims, the seller remains responsible for general customer enquiries, e.g. B. regarding the goods, delivery time, shipping, returns, complaints, declarations of revocation and sending or credit notes.
4.5 If the payment method "SOFORT" is selected, payment processing will be carried out by the payment service provider SOFORT GmbH, Theresienhöhe 12, 80339 Munich (hereinafter "SOFORT"). In order to pay the invoice amount via "SOFORT", the customer must have an online banking account activated for participation in "SOFORT", identify themselves accordingly during the payment process and confirm the payment instruction to "SOFORT". The payment transaction is then carried out immediately by "SOFORT" and the customer's bank account is debited. The customer can find more information about the payment method "SOFORT" on the Internet at https://www.klarna.com/sofort/ retrieve.
4.6 When selecting a payment method offered via the payment service "Shopify Payments", the payment processing is carried out by the payment service provider Stripe Payments Europe Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland (hereinafter "Stripe"). The individual payment methods offered via Shopify Payments are communicated to the customer in the seller's online shop. To process payments, Stripe may use other payment services for which special payment conditions may apply, to which the customer may be informed separately. Further information on "Shopify Payments" can be found on the Internet at https://www.shopify.com/legal/terms-payments-de available.
4.7 If a payment method offered via the payment service "Stripe" is selected, the payment will be processed via the payment service provider Stripe Payments Europe Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland (hereinafter "Stripe"). The individual payment methods offered via Stripe will be communicated to the customer in the seller's online shop. To process payments, Stripe may use other payment services for which special payment conditions may apply, to which the customer may be informed separately. Further information about Stripe is available on the Internet at https://stripe.com/de available.
4.8 If you select the payment method credit card via Stripe, the invoice amount is due immediately upon conclusion of the contract. Payment is processed via the payment service provider Stripe Payments Europe Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland (hereinafter: "Stripe"). Stripe reserves the right to carry out a credit check and to reject this payment method if the credit check is negative.
4.9 If you select a payment method offered via the "Klarna" payment service, the payment will be processed by Klarna Bank AB (publ), Sveavägen 46, 111 34 Stockholm, Sweden (hereinafter "Klarna"). Further information and Klarna's terms and conditions can be found here:
5) Delivery and shipping conditions
5.1 If the seller offers to ship the goods, delivery will be made within the delivery area specified by the seller to the delivery address specified by the customer, unless otherwise agreed. When processing the transaction, the delivery address specified in the seller's order processing is decisive. In deviation from this, if the PayPal payment method is selected, the delivery address stored by the customer with PayPal at the time of payment is decisive.
5.2 If the delivery of the goods fails for reasons for which the customer is responsible, the customer shall bear the reasonable costs incurred by the seller as a result. This does not apply to the costs of delivery if the customer effectively exercises his right of cancellation. If the customer effectively exercises his right of cancellation, the provisions in the seller's cancellation policy apply to the return costs.
5.3 If the customer is acting as an entrepreneur, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold passes to the customer as soon as the seller has delivered the item to the freight forwarder, the carrier or the other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment. If the customer is acting as a consumer, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold generally only passes when the goods are handed over to the customer or a person authorized to receive them. Deviating from this, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold also passes to the customer in the case of consumers as soon as the seller has delivered the item to the freight forwarder, the carrier or the other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment, if the customer has commissioned the freight forwarder, the carrier or the other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment and the seller has not previously named this person or institution to the customer.
5.4 The seller reserves the right to withdraw from the contract in the event of incorrect or improper self-delivery. This only applies if the non-delivery is not the responsibility of the seller and the seller has concluded a specific hedging transaction with the supplier with due care. The seller will make all reasonable efforts to procure the goods. In the event of unavailability or only partial availability of the goods, the customer will be informed immediately and the consideration will be refunded immediately.
5.5 If the seller offers the goods for collection, the customer can collect the ordered goods from the address specified by the seller during the business hours specified by the seller. In this case, no shipping costs will be charged.
5.6 Vouchers are provided to the customer as follows:
- by email
6) Retention of title
If the seller makes advance payments, he retains title to the delivered goods until the purchase price owed has been paid in full.
7) Liability for defects (warranty)
Unless otherwise stated in the following provisions, the provisions of statutory liability for defects apply. The following applies to contracts for the delivery of goods:
7.1 If the customer acts as an entrepreneur,
- the seller has the choice of the type of subsequent performance;
- For new goods, the limitation period for defects is one year from delivery of the goods;
- In the case of used goods, rights and claims due to defects are excluded;
- The limitation period does not begin again if a replacement delivery is made within the scope of liability for defects.
7.2 If the customer acts as a consumer, the following applies to contracts for the delivery of used goods with the restriction of the following clause: The limitation period for claims for defects is one year from delivery of the goods, if this was expressly and separately agreed between the parties in the contract and the customer was specifically informed of the shortening of the limitation period before submitting his contractual declaration.
7.3 The limitations of liability and shortening of time limits set out above do not apply
- for claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses by the customer,
- in the event that the seller has fraudulently concealed the defect,
- for goods which have been used for a building in accordance with their usual use and have caused its defectiveness,
- for any obligation of the seller to provide updates for digital products, in contracts for the delivery of goods with digital elements.
7.4 Furthermore, for entrepreneurs, the statutory limitation periods for any existing statutory recourse claim remain unaffected.
7.5 If the customer acts as a merchant within the meaning of Section 1 of the German Commercial Code (HGB), he is subject to the commercial obligation to inspect and give notice of defects in accordance with Section 377 of the German Commercial Code (HGB). If the customer fails to comply with the notification obligations set out therein, the goods are deemed to have been approved.
7.6 If the customer is a consumer, he is requested to complain to the deliverer about goods that have obvious transport damage and to inform the seller of this. If the customer does not do this, this will have no effect on his legal or contractual claims for defects.
8) Liability
The seller is liable to the customer for all contractual, quasi-contractual and legal, including tortious claims for damages and reimbursement of expenses as follows:
8.1 The Seller shall be liable without limitation for any legal reason
- in case of intent or gross negligence,
- in the event of intentional or negligent injury to life, body or health,
- due to a guarantee promise, unless otherwise provided,
- due to mandatory liability such as under the Product Liability Act.
8.2 If the seller negligently breaches a material contractual obligation, liability is limited to the damage that is typical for the contract and foreseeable, unless unlimited liability applies in accordance with the above paragraph. Material contractual obligations are obligations that the contract imposes on the seller in accordance with its content in order to achieve the purpose of the contract, the fulfillment of which makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on whose compliance the customer can regularly rely.
8.3 Otherwise, the Seller’s liability is excluded.

12) Place of jurisdiction
If the customer acts as a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law with its registered office in the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract is the seller's place of business. If the customer is based outside the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany, the seller's place of business is the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract if the contract or claims arising from the contract can be attributed to the customer's professional or commercial activity.
