Sales, Return, and Warranty Terms for Ovy Products 

These General Terms and Conditions ("AGB") of Ovy GmbH (hereinafter "Seller") apply to all contracts concluded by a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter "Customer") with the Seller regarding the goods and/or services displayed by the Seller in its online shop. These terms expressly reject the inclusion of the Customer's own terms unless agreed otherwise.

A consumer for the purposes of these terms is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that predominantly cannot be attributed to their commercial or self-employed professional activity. An entrepreneur for the purposes of these terms is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal personality who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.

Contract Conclusion in the Ovy Online Shop 
The product representations in the Seller's online shop do not constitute binding offers by the Seller, but serve to submit a binding offer by the Customer.

The purchase of Ovy products is only open to residents of countries where we offer Ovy services (collectively the "Contract Territory"). Information on the availability of specific products can be found on our website for each product. Currently, we ship all Ovy products to the following countries: Switzerland, Austria, Italy, France, Spain, Netherlands. Different delivery costs apply to these countries.

If delivery is made to a non-EU country, additional duties, taxes, or fees may apply, but not to Ovy GmbH, but rather to the relevant customs or tax authorities there. The costs are to be borne by the customer. We recommend that you inquire about the details from the customs or tax authorities before placing an order.

The Customer can submit the offer via the integrated online order form in the Seller's online shop. After placing the selected goods and/or services in the virtual shopping cart and completing the electronic ordering process, the Customer submits a legally binding contract offer regarding the goods and/or services contained in the shopping cart. Additionally, the Customer may also submit the offer by phone, fax, email, or post to the seller.

The seller may accept the customer's offer within five days by: 
- Sending a written order confirmation or a confirmation in text form (fax or email), whereby the receipt of the order confirmation by the customer is decisive,
- Delivering the ordered goods to the customer, whereby the receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive,
- Requesting payment from the customer after the customer has placed the order.

If several of the aforementioned alternatives exist, the contract is concluded at the time when one of the aforementioned alternatives occurs first. If the seller does not accept the customer's offer within the aforementioned period, this is deemed as a rejection of the offer, with the consequence that the customer is no longer bound by their declaration of intent.

The period for acceptance of the offer begins on the day after the customer sends the offer and ends with the expiry of the fifth day following the sending of the offer. When an offer is made via the seller's online order form, the text of the contract is stored by the seller and sent to the customer in text form (e.g., email, fax, or letter) after the customer has submitted their order, along with these terms and conditions. Additionally, the seller's text of the contract is archived and can be retrieved by the customer free of charge via their password-protected customer account, provided that the customer has created a customer account in the seller's online shop before submitting their order.

Before submitting a binding order via the seller's online order form, the customer can continuously correct their entries using the usual keyboard and mouse functions. In addition, all entries will be displayed again in a confirmation window before the binding submission of the order, where they can also be corrected using the usual keyboard and mouse functions. The contract can only be concluded in German and English.

Order processing and communication typically occur 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 for order processing can be delivered. 

Prices and Payment Terms for Ovy Online Shop 

The purchase price is due immediately upon ordering. The purchaser can pay the purchase price by invoice, installment purchase, Sofortüberweisung (instant bank transfer), direct debit, or PayPal.

When selecting the payment method "PayPal," payment processing is carried out via the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg, under the PayPal terms of use. This includes, among other things, the requirement that the customer opens a PayPal account or already has such an account.

When selecting the payment method "PayPal Plus/Credit Card," payment processing is conducted via the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg, under the PayPal terms of use. It is not necessary for the customer to open a PayPal account or already have such an account.

Delivery and Shipping Conditions

Goods are regularly delivered by shipping to the delivery address provided by the customer. During the processing of the transaction, the delivery address specified in the seller's purchase processing is decisive. However, if PayPal is selected as the payment method, the delivery address provided by the customer at the time of payment with PayPal is decisive.

If the transport company returns the shipped goods to the seller because delivery to the customer was not possible, the customer bears the costs for the unsuccessful shipping attempt. This does not apply if the customer is not responsible for the circumstance that led to the impossibility of delivery or if the customer was temporarily prevented from accepting the offered service, unless the seller announced the service to the customer an appropriate time in advance.

Self-collection is not possible for logistical reasons. Gift vouchers are provided to the customer via email, download, or postal delivery.

Liability for Defects/Complaints Regarding Ovy Products (excluding the app)  

Statutory liability for defects applies. The device has been manufactured and tested with all due care. In the event that defects should nevertheless occur upon delivery, please follow the instructions in the user manual of the respective device. Excluded from the warranty are normal wear and tear of consumable parts or damages resulting from non-compliance with the user manual, improper handling (e.g., unsuitable power sources, breakage, leaked batteries), and/or dismantling of the device by the buyer. Furthermore, the warranty does not establish claims for damages against us. Warranty claims can only be asserted during the warranty period and by presenting the purchase receipt.

Redemption of Promotional Vouchers 
Vouchers issued by the seller as part of promotional campaigns, with a specific validity period and which cannot be purchased by the customer ("Promotional Vouchers"), can only be redeemed in the seller's online shop and within the specified period.

Individual products may be excluded from the voucher promotion if such a restriction is indicated in the content of the Promotional Voucher. 

Promotional Vouchers can only be redeemed before completing the order process. Subsequent offsetting is not possible. Only one Promotional Voucher can be redeemed per order.

The value of the goods must at least match the amount of the Promotional Voucher. Any remaining credit will not be refunded by the seller.

If the value of the Promotional Voucher is insufficient to cover the order, one of the other payment methods offered by the seller can be used to settle the difference. The credit of a Promotional Voucher cannot be paid out in cash or earn interest. The Promotional Voucher will not be refunded if the customer returns the goods, either in whole or in part, paid for with the Promotional Voucher under their statutory right of withdrawal. The Promotional Voucher is transferable. The seller can provide performance to the respective holder who redeems the Promotional Voucher in the seller's online shop, with discharging effect. This does not apply if the seller has knowledge or grossly negligent ignorance of the lack of authorization, legal capacity, or lack of authority of the respective holder.

Only one voucher can be redeemed per order.

Promotions generally cannot be combined with voucher codes. Exceptions will be communicated on the website.

Multiple voucher codes cannot be combined.

Applicable Law, Jurisdiction 
For all legal relationships between the parties, the law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies, excluding the laws regarding the international purchase of movable goods. For consumers, this choice of law applies only to the extent that the protection granted by mandatory provisions of the law of the country where the consumer has their habitual residence is not withdrawn.

If the customer is acting as a merchant, legal entity under public law, or special public fund domiciled 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 has their domicile 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. In any case, the seller is entitled to invoke the court at the customer's domicile. 

Furthermore, this choice of law does not apply to consumers who, at the time of conclusion of the contract, are not residents of a member state of the European Union and whose sole residence and delivery address at the time of conclusion of the contract are outside the European Union.

Right of Withdrawal

To comply with the withdrawal period, it is sufficient that you send the notification of exercising the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period expires.

It is important that the item has not been used, hence the security seal is not damaged. These are hygiene items. We reserve the right to check this before refunding the purchase price. For hygienic reasons, we cannot accept goods that have been used or removed from the packaging. We ask for your understanding.

Please only open the packaging if you actually intend to use the product. The cost of returning the goods in the event of withdrawal shall be borne by the buyer. Please download the returns form in advance, complete it, and include it with the return shipment so that we can properly assign and refund it upon receipt.

Promotional offers (such as configured boxes or bundles with multiple products) can only be returned in their entirety within the legally applicable period. Refunding individual products is not possible.

Consequences of Withdrawal 
If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, excluding delivery costs and any additional costs resulting from your choice of a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us, without undue delay and in any event not later than fourteen days from the day on which we receive notification of your withdrawal from this contract. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement. We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to us without undue delay and in any event not later than fourteen days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of fourteen days has expired. You will bear the direct costs of returning the goods.

You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics, and functioning of the goods.
