Terms of service

Terms and Conditions

Welcome to minibell! The terms ‘we’, ‘us’ and “our” refer to minibell. minibell operates this shop and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products and services, to provide you, the customer, with a personalised shopping experience (the ‘Services’). minibell is based on Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you. 

The following terms and conditions, together with the policies referenced herein (these ‘Terms and Conditions’ or ‘Terms’), describe your rights and obligations when using the Services.
 

Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully, as they contain important information about your legal rights and cover topics such as warranty disclaimers and limitations of liability.
 

By visiting, interacting with, or using our Services, you agree to these Terms and Conditions and our Privacy Policy [details under Privacy Policy]. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions or the Privacy Policy, you may not use or access our Services.
 

SECTION 1 – ACCESS AND ACCOUNT
By agreeing to these Terms and Conditions, you represent that you are of legal age in the state or region where you reside and that you have given us your consent to allow your minor relatives to use the Services on devices that you own, have purchased or manage.
 
In order to use the Services, including accessing or browsing our online shops or purchasing products or services we offer, you may be required to provide certain information, such as your email address and billing, payment and delivery information. You represent and warrant that all information you provide in our shops is accurate, current and complete, and that you are fully authorised to provide such information. 
You are solely responsible for the security of your account login details and for all activity on your account. You may not transfer, sell, assign or license your account to another person.
 

SECTION 2 – OUR PRODUCTS
We have made every effort to display our products and services in our online shops as accurately as possible. However, please note that the colours or appearance of the products may differ from the colours displayed on your screen due to the device you use to access the shop and its settings and configuration.
 
We do not guarantee that the appearance or quality of the products or services you purchase will meet your expectations or match the representations in our online shops.
 
All product descriptions are subject to change at any time without notice at our sole discretion. We reserve the right to remove products from our range at any time and to limit the quantities of products we offer to any person, geographical region or jurisdiction on a case-by-case basis. 

Section 3 – ORDERS 
By placing an order, you are making an offer to purchase. minibell reserves the right to accept or reject your order at its sole discretion for any reason. Your order is only considered accepted once it has been confirmed by minibell. Acceptance of your order is subject to receipt and processing of your payment. Please check your order carefully before submitting it, as minibell may not be able to accommodate cancellation requests after an order has been accepted. If we do not accept, change or cancel an order, we will attempt to notify you via the email address, billing address and/or telephone number provided when placing the order.
 
Returns or exchanges of your purchases will only be made in accordance with our right of withdrawal [see Right of Withdrawal for details].
You represent and warrant that your purchases are for your personal use or the use of your household and not for commercial resale or export.

SECTION 4 – PRICES AND BILLING
Prices, discounts and special offers are subject to change without notice. The price charged for a product or service is the price valid at the time of ordering and will be stated in the order confirmation you receive by email. Unless expressly stated otherwise, the prices quoted do not include taxes, shipping, handling, customs or import duties.
 
The prices quoted in our online shops may differ from those in brick-and-mortar shops or in online shops or other shops operated by third parties. From time to time, we may offer promotions for the services that may affect pricing and are subject to terms and conditions other than these terms and conditions. In the event of any discrepancy between the terms and conditions of a promotion and these Terms and Conditions, the terms and conditions of the promotion shall prevail. 
You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase, payment and account information for all purchases made in our shops. You agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address, credit card numbers, and expiry dates, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as necessary.

SECTION 16 – LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, minibell, OUR PARTNERS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AFFILIATES, AGENTS, CONTRACTORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS OR LICENSORS, OR THOSE OF SHOPIFY AND ITS AFFILIATES, SHALL IN NO EVENT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INJURIES, LOSSES, CLAIMS OR DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF SAVINGS, LOSS OF DATA, REPLACEMENT COSTS OR SIMILAR DAMAGES, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES OR ANY PRODUCTS OBTAINED THROUGH THE SERVICES, OR FOR ANY OTHER CLAIMS RELATED IN ANY WAY TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES OR ANY PRODUCT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN CONTENT OR LOSSES OR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND RESULTING FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICES OR THE CONTENT, TRANSMITTED OR OTHERWISE MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICES (OR PRODUCTS), EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless minibell, Shopify and our affiliates, partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, licensors and service providers from any loss, damage, liability or claim, including reasonable legal fees, payable to any third party and arising out of (1) your breach of these Terms and Conditions or the documents referred to therein, (2) your violation of any law or the rights of any third party, or (3) your access to and use of the Services.
 
We will notify you of any indemnifiable claims, provided that failure to notify you promptly will not relieve you of your obligations unless you are materially prejudiced by such failure. We may control the defence and settlement of any such claim at your expense, including the choice of legal counsel, but we will not settle any claim that requires non-monetary obligations on your part without your consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld). You will cooperate in the defence of any claim, including by providing relevant documents.

SECTION 18 – SEVERABILITY
If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is found to be unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision shall nevertheless remain in effect to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the unenforceable portion shall be deemed severed from these Terms and Conditions. The validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected by such a finding. 

SECTION 19 – WAIVER, ENTIRE AGREEMENT
Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms and Conditions shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
 
These Terms and Conditions and any policies or operating rules posted by us on this website or in respect to the Service constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us and govern your use of the Service. They supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements, communications and offers, whether oral or written, between you and us (including, but not limited to, prior versions of the Terms and Conditions).
 
Any ambiguities in the interpretation of these Terms and Conditions shall not be construed against the drafting party.

We may assign, transfer or delegate these Terms and our rights and obligations without your consent or notice to you. 

SECTION 21 – GOVERNING LAW
These Terms and Conditions and any related contracts shall be governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
For consumers, this choice of law applies only insofar as it does not deprive them of the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which they have their habitual residence.
To the extent permitted by law, the place of jurisdiction is the registered office of minibell.

SECTION 22 – HEADINGS
