Consumers are entitled to the statutory right of cancellation as described in the cancellation policy. Entrepreneurs are not granted a voluntary right of withdrawal.

The goods remain our property until full payment has been made.
For entrepreneurs, the following shall apply in addition: We reserve title to the goods until all claims arising from an ongoing business relationship have been settled in full. You may resell the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business; you assign to us in advance all claims arising from this resale - irrespective of any combination or mixing of the goods subject to retention of title with a new item - in the amount of the invoice amount, and we accept this assignment. You remain authorised to collect the claims, but we may also collect claims ourselves insofar as you do not meet your payment obligations.

For consumers applies:
If goods are delivered with obvious transport damage, please complain about such defects to the delivery company as soon as possible and contact us immediately. Failure to make a complaint or contact us has no consequences for your legal claims and their enforcement, in particular your warranty rights. However, you will help us to assert our own claims against the carrier or the transport insurance.

For entrepreneurs applies:
The risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration shall pass to you as soon as we have delivered the item to the forwarding agent, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise designated to carry out the shipment. If you fail to give notice, the goods shall be deemed to have been approved, unless the defect was not recognisable during an inspection. This does not apply if we have fraudulently concealed a defect.

Unless expressly agreed otherwise below, the statutory law on liability for defects shall apply.

The following applies to used goods: if the defect occurs after the expiry of one year from delivery of the goods, the claims for defects are excluded. Defects that occur within one year of delivery of the goods can be claimed within the statutory limitation period of two years from delivery of the goods.

For entrepreneurs, the limitation period for claims for defects in newly manufactured goods is one year from the transfer of risk. The sale of used goods takes place under exclusion of any warranty. The statutory limitation periods for the right of recourse according to § 445a BGB remain unaffected.
With respect to entrepreneurs, only our own information and the manufacturer's product descriptions included in the contract shall be deemed to be an agreement on the quality of the goods; we shall not assume any liability for public statements made by the manufacturer or other advertising statements.
If the delivered item is defective, we shall initially provide a warranty to entrepreneurs at our discretion by rectifying the defect (subsequent improvement) or by delivering an item free of defects (replacement delivery).

The following applies to consumers domiciled in Switzerland: You shall inspect the condition of the goods received as soon as it is feasible in the normal course of business and, if defects are found for which the seller is liable, notify the seller immediately. If the consumer fails to do so, the purchased item shall be deemed to have been approved unless the defects were not recognisable during the usual inspection. If such defects are discovered later, notification must be made immediately after discovery, otherwise the item shall also be deemed to have been approved with regard to these defects.

Send the defective product back to us with a description of the defect. You bear the transport costs incurred. We provide a warranty by rectifying defects. This is done at our discretion either by rectifying the defect (subsequent improvement) or by delivering a defect-free item (replacement delivery). If the subsequent fulfilment fails, you are entitled to withdraw from the contract. This does not apply in the case of insignificant defects. The right to a price reduction is excluded.

9.2 Warranties and customer service

Information on any additional guarantees that may apply and their exact conditions can be found with the product and on special information pages in the online shop.

Customer service: You can reach our customer service for questions, complaints and claims on weekdays from 9:00 to 18:00 at the following telephone number +43 720 302244 and by e-mail at support@hempions.com.

For claims based on damage caused by us, our legal representatives or vicarious agents, we shall always be liable without limitation

• in the event of injury to life, limb or health,
• in the event of intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty,
• in the case of guarantee promises, insofar as agreed, or
• insofar as the scope of application of the Product Liability Act is opened.

In the event of a breach of material contractual obligations, the fulfilment of which is a prerequisite for the proper performance of the contract and on the observance of which the contractual partner may regularly rely (cardinal obligations) due to slight negligence on our part, on the part of our legal representatives or vicarious agents, the amount of liability shall be limited to the damage foreseeable at the time of the conclusion of the contract, the occurrence of which must typically be expected. Otherwise, claims for damages are excluded.

The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution (ODR), which you can find here https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/.
We are not obliged or willing to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.

If your order includes goods whose sale is subject to age restrictions, we ensure that the customer has reached the required minimum age by using a reliable procedure that includes a personal identity and age check. The delivery person will only hand over the goods after the age check has been carried out and only to the customer in person.

13. gift vouchers

Gift vouchers are vouchers that you can purchase. These can be redeemed on hempions.com for all items, but not for the purchase of additional gift vouchers. If the balance of a gift voucher is not sufficient for the order, the difference can be made up using the payment options offered.
Gift vouchers and credit can only be redeemed before completing the order process. Subsequent offsetting is not possible.
The balance of a gift voucher is neither paid out in cash nor does it bear interest. A refund in the event of loss/damage is not possible. Gift vouchers cannot be exchanged and cannot be cancelled.

14. product reviews

Product reviews can be submitted without logging in by entering your name and email address. Submitted reviews are verified manually and appear under the rated product after successful verification and approval.

The place of jurisdiction and performance shall be the registered office of the seller if the consumer is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law.
The law of the Republic of Austria shall apply. This shall not apply if mandatory consumer protection regulations conflict with such application.
