We are neither willing nor obliged to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.

(2) The contract for the goods contained in your shopping cart is concluded by clicking the button "Place order” at the end of the ordering process. Immediately after sending the order, the customer receives a confirmation by e-mail.

In this case, we shall inform you immediately and, if necessary, suggest a comparable product that we can deliver to you. If no comparable product is available or if you do not wish to receive a comparable product, we shall refund any payments already made to you without delay.

(4) If your address changes, the post office may inform us of your new address. However, you can object to the post office forwarding your address within a period of four weeks after ordering. We will assume that you agree to the forwarding of your address if you do not exercise your right to object in due time.

Clause 9 – Terms of use for the "DETAIL Inspiration" online database
The following additional special regulations apply to the "DETAIL Inspiration" online database:
(1) DETAIL Architecture GmbH offers customers access to the "DETAIL Inspiration" online database ("Database"), which provides access to items and construction drawings ("Material") on the basis of a paid subscription.
(2) In accordance with the subscription and the provisions under this Clause 9, customers shall be granted a simple, non-exclusive, non-transferable right, limited to the duration of the subscription, to use the Material for themselves and for the contractually specified authorised users.
a. The use of the Database is limited to the number of authorised users specified in the subscription contract. The customer shall provide the names of the authorised users, unless access by means of IP or domain authentication has been agreed. When purchasing a subscription for individual users, only the customer whose personal e-mail address acts as the user name is authorised to use the Material. Where subscriptions are purchased for offices or institutions, the access authorisation shall apply solely to the number of users agreed with DETAIL Architecture GmbH as well as to the registered IP addresses and/or domains. DETAIL Architecture GmbH is entitled to check compliance with the terms of use. Authorised users are permitted to use the Material via computer workstations on the physical premises of the customer or - if the customer allows this - by means of remote access via the secure network of the customer.
b. The right of use depends on the subscription. With the basic tariff, the right of use only entitles the user to research and have read access. In the premium tariff, which is subject to an additional charge, it is also possible to download the Material to the computer of the customer or authorised user and to save and/or print it once. The download limit depends on the subscription selected. Any further reproduction or other use of documents or the Material of the Database is only permitted with the prior written consent of DETAIL Architecture GmbH. It is not permitted to forward the Material to third parties, to reproduce it and/or to make it accessible to the public - in particular via other networks and/or the Internet. Furthermore, it is not permitted to use or exploit the Material in whole or in part by selling it, renting it out, leasing or lending it to third parties or in any other way.
c. In addition, it is not permitted to use and/or permanently store the Material in whole or in part to build up a systematic collection or in a local retrieval system. It is not permitted to incorporate the Material in databases or database works. Downloaded Material may generally only be stored for the duration of the subscription; it must be deleted afterwards. DETAIL Architecture GmbH waives any right of return. The permanent archiving of the Material is not permitted.
d. The customer and authorised users may not process or edit the Material, either in whole or in part, or transform it in any other manner.
e. DETAIL Architecture GmbH is entitled to take technical measures to prevent use beyond the scope permitted, in particular to install appropriate access blocks. The customer may not use any devices, products or other means serving to circumvent or overcome the technical measures of DETAIL Architecture GmbH. In particular, the customer may not use robots, web crawler or spider programs, meta search engines or comparable technologies which automatically retrieve, search and/or index contents from the online Database. In the event of misuse, DETAIL Architecture GmbH is entitled to immediately block or delete access to the Database. Further rights and claims of DETAIL Architecture GmbH, in particular the right to extraordinary termination for good cause as well as claims for damages, remain unaffected.
(3) Registration is required to use the Database. The customer as well as the authorised users are responsible for keeping their personal user name and password secret. DETAIL Architecture GmbH may block or delete access if it has reason to suspect misuse of user data. DETAIL Architecture GmbH shall immediately inform the user of the blocking or deletion of access.
(4) The customer is responsible for maintaining the technical requirements for access to the Database, in particular in terms of the hardware and operating system software used, the connection to the Internet and the current browser software. The customer is obliged to take the necessary precautions to secure his/her/its systems, in particular to use the current security settings of the browser and to use the latest protective mechanisms to ward off malware.
(5) DETAIL Architecture GmbH shall rectify defects in the Database or retrieved components within a reasonable period of time after the customer has provided a written, comprehensible description of the defect. If it is not possible to rectify the defect within a reasonable period of time, the customer may demand a proportional reduction of the remuneration. In the event of demonstrably repeated significant defects, the customer may cancel the subscription. Any claim due to defects is excluded if it is based on circumstances for which the customer is responsible, in particular if the customer fails to comply with his/her/its obligations to cooperate in accordance with this Clause 9.
(6) DETAIL Architecture GmbH takes the customary care in selecting and maintaining the contents of the Database. DETAIL Architecture GmbH is not liable for the correctness and completeness of the contents if it has received the contents from third parties.
(7) The availability of the Database may be temporarily restricted for technical reasons, for example due to any maintenance work that may be required. DETAIL Architecture GmbH or its service provider may disconnect the servers from the network for maintenance work, which it shall announce at least four working days in advance. In the event of an outage of the server for a considerable period of time during customary service hours, the payment obligation of the customer shall be reduced accordingly where such an obligation exists.
(8) The customer is obliged to inform the authorised users of the above provisions and to ensure that they are complied with.

• contracts for the supply of goods (see Clause 10.1)

(2) Please note that in the case of a contract for the supply of digital content which is not stored on a physical data medium your right of cancellation under Section 356 (5) BGB expires if the entrepreneur has commenced performance of the contract after the consumer (1) has expressly consented to the entrepreneur commencing performance of the contract before the expiry of the cancellation period and (2) has confirmed having knowledge that by consenting the consumer loses his/her/its right of cancellation upon commencement of performance of the contract.
Clause 10.4 – No right of cancellation for tickets, cancellation conditions for tickets
(1) Even if DETAIL Architecture GmbH offers tickets via means of distance communication within the meaning of Section 312c (2) BGB and this might therefore involve a distance contract pursuant to Section 312c (1) BGB, the customer has no right of cancellation when purchasing a ticket pursuant to Section 312g (2) no. 9 BGB. This means that there is no two-week right of cancellation or return. Each submission of an offer or order for tickets is therefore binding immediately after confirmation and obliges the customer to accept and pay for the tickets ordered.
(2) The following conditions apply when cancelling tickets for an event with tickets@detail.de:
• The cancellation of tickets up to 1 week / 5 working days before the event is free of charge.
• The cancellation of tickets up to 3 days before the event is subject to a charge of 50% of the ticket price (EUR 15 for free attendance tickets) plus a EUR 5 handling fee.
• The cancellation of tickets up to the day of the event is subject to a charge of 90% of the ticket price (EUR 29.95 for free attendance tickets) plus a handling fee of EUR 5.
Clause 11 – Applicable law
The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to the exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If you have placed the order as a consumer and have your habitual residence in another country at the time when you placed the order, the application of mandatory legal provisions of this country remains unaffected by the choice of law made in sentence 1.
The provisions set out under Clauses 12 to 14 below are intended solely for entrepreneurs within the meaning of Section 14 BGB and can be disregarded by consumers.
Clause 12 – Delivery to entrepreneurs
In deviation from Clause 6 para. (6), the following applies to entrepreneurs:
(1) The entrepreneur must inspect the delivered goods for defects immediately upon receipt.
(2) Obvious defects must be reported to DETAILArchitecture GmbH in writing immediately if the entrepreneur is a trader within the meaning of the German Commercial Code and at the latest within 2 weeks after receipt of the goods if the entrepreneur is not a trader.
(3) Goods that are the subject of complaint may only be returned with the written consent of DETAIL Architecture GmbH. Unauthorised returns and returns without providing any reference shall not be processed and shall be returned to the sender unprocessed with unfree postage.
Clause 13 – Retention of title for entrepreneurs
In deviation from Clause 4 para. (3), the following applies to entrepreneurs:
(1) All deliveries are made under extended reservation of title.
(2) The goods shall remain the property of DETAIL Architecture GmbH until the satisfaction of all claims (including all current account balance claims) to which DETAIL Architecture GmbH is entitled against the entrepreneur now or in the future. If the entrepreneur is not a trader as defined by the German Commercial Code, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the goods shall remain the property of DETAIL Architecture GmbH only until the claim for the actually delivered goods has been satisfied. The entrepreneur shall be entitled to sell the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business as long as the entrepreneur is not in default of payment. Pledges and transfers of ownership by way of security are not permitted. The entrepreneur hereby fully assigns claims arising from the resale or from any other legal reason (insurance, tort) with regard to the goods subject to retention of title (including all current account balance claims) to DETAIL Architecture GmbH by way of security. The entrepreneur is revocably authorised to collect the assigned claims for his/her/its own account. This collection authorisation may be revoked if the entrepreneur is in default with his/her/its payment obligation. In this case DETAIL Architecture GmbH shall be entitled to disclose the assignment and to pay the amounts itself.
(3) In the event of default in payment, DETAIL Architecture GmbH shall be entitled to take back the goods subject to retention of title or, if applicable, to demand assignment of the claims for return against third parties. The taking back as well as the seizure of the goods subject to a retention of title by DETAIL Architecture shall not constitute a withdrawal from the contract.
(4) DETAIL Architecture GmbH undertakes to release the security to which it is entitled at the request of the entrepreneur insofar as the value of the security exceeds the claims to be secured by more than 20%.
Clause 14 – Place of performance, applicable law, place of jurisdiction for entrepreneurs
In addition to Clause 11, the following applies to entrepreneurs:
(1) If the entrepreneur is a registered trader within the meaning of the German Commercial Code, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, Munich, Germany shall be the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising directly or indirectly from this contractual relationship.
(2) The same place of jurisdiction shall apply if the entrepreneur does not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany, moves his/her/its domicile or habitual place of residence out of Germany after conclusion of the contract or his/her/its domicile or habitual place of residence is not known to DETAIL Architecture GmbH at the time the action is brought.
The following paragraphs Clauses 15 and 16 are intended solely for advertisers on our websites:

The actual duration of the publication is irrelevant for this.
