General Terms and Conditions

1. Formation of Contract

With your order you make a binding offer to us to conclude a contract with you. By sending an order confirmation via e-mail to you or the delivery of ordered goods, we can accept this offer. First, you will receive a confirmation of receipt of your order by e-mail to the specified e-mail address (order confirmation). However, a purchase contract is concluded only with the dispatch of our order confirmation via e-mail to you or with the delivery of goods ordered.

When ordering from our online shop the ordering process includes a total of 4 steps. In the first step, select the desired goods. In the second step, enter your customer data, including billing address and, if different delivery address. In the third step, you choose how you want to pay. Finally, you have the option to check again all the information (e.g. name, address, payment method, items ordered) and to correct if necessary, before submitting your order to us by clicking 'Paid Order'.

2. Storage of Contract

We store the contract text of your order. You can print the contract text by clicking "print" in the last step of the order prior dispatching your order. We will also send an order confirmation and an order confirmation with all order data and our Terms and Conditions to the email address provided by you.

The travel costs will be charged according to the applicable rates in each case.

Upon suspension of support and eventual resumption, HRMTEC will charge a one time "reinstatement fee" (last paid support fee * 150% (prorated over the unsupported period)) plus additional support (1 year support fee).
