Orders that our customers place through our online shop https://whatsracso.com/ are subject exclusively to these General Terms of Business (GTB). We will not acknowledge any deviating conditions of the customer or third parties unless we have expressly consented to their application.
The product range in our online shop https://whatsracso.com is aimed exclusively at consumers; Our offer is not aimed at companies. A consumer means any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for a purpose not attributable to their commercial or independent professional activity, § 13 BGB (German Civil Code).


2. PRODUCT RANGE, OFFER PROCEDURE AND CONTRACT CONCLUSION

The presentation of the products in the online shop does not constitute a legally binding offer, but a non-binding online catalogue.
Orders for goods can be placed via our online shop https://whatsracso.com/.

After sending your order, you will receive an email confirming its receipt (order confirmation). However, this still does not constitute acceptance of your order, but serves merely to inform you that we have received it. The purchase contract will not be concluded until we have accepted the order by sending an additional email confirming the order and the delivery of goods (order confirmation). If you have received no order confirmation or delivery of goods within three business days of sending your order, you will no longer be bound by it.
