            A contract is only concluded when the customer contacts us, requests an offer, and we confirm the offer, order, or invoice in writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Inquiries by email, phone, WhatsApp, or other communication channels are non-binding unless confirmed by us in writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                \n
              • our written order confirmation,<\/li>\n\n\n\n

              • or another explicit confirmation by Maria Handel GmbH.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                Verbal agreements are only valid if confirmed by us in writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                We reserve the right to reject inquiries without giving reasons, especially if products are not available, minimum order quantities are not met, or delivery is not possible for economic, legal, or logistical reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  \n
                1. Prices<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                  All prices are offered individually and may vary depending on the product, quantity, packaging unit, delivery location, availability, and market situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  The information displayed on the website does not include binding prices unless expressly stated otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  All prices are stated in euros unless otherwise agreed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  Whether prices are net or gross will be shown in the respective offer or invoice. For business customers, prices are usually stated net plus statutory VAT, unless otherwise agreed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  Additional costs, especially delivery costs, transport costs, packaging costs, or other fees, will be communicated to the customer before the conclusion of the contract or shown in the offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    \n
                  1. Minimum Order Quantity<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                    As we operate as a wholesale business, minimum order quantities may apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    The respective minimum order quantity depends on the product, packaging unit, stock, and delivery agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    There is no entitlement to the delivery of small quantities unless a separate agreement has been made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      \n
                    1. Payment Terms<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                      Payment terms are agreed individually and are shown in the respective offer, order confirmation, or invoice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      Possible payment methods may include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        \n

                        Maria Handel GmbH reserves the right to refuse certain payment methods or to request advance payment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        Invoice amounts must be paid within the payment period stated on the invoice without deduction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        In the event of late payment, we reserve the right to charge statutory default interest, reminder fees, and any further costs caused by the delay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          \n
                        1. Delivery and Pickup<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                          Delivery or pickup of goods takes place according to individual agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          Delivery dates and delivery periods are only binding if they have been expressly confirmed in writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          Maria Handel GmbH is entitled to make partial deliveries if this is reasonable for the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          Delivery delays caused by force majeure, strikes, official measures, transport problems, supply shortages, import problems, or other circumstances beyond our control entitle us to postpone delivery accordingly or withdraw from the contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          In case of pickup, the customer is obliged to collect the goods at the agreed time. If the goods are not collected on time, storage costs or other resulting costs may be charged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                            \n
                          1. Transfer of Risk<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                            For business customers, the risk of accidental loss or accidental deterioration of the goods passes to the customer as soon as the goods are handed over to the customer, carrier, freight forwarder, or any other person appointed to carry out the delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                            In case of pickup, the risk passes to the customer or the customer\u2019s representative upon handover of the goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                              \n
                            1. Retention of Title<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                              The delivered goods remain the property of Maria Handel GmbH until full payment of all outstanding claims from the business relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                              The customer is entitled to resell the goods in the ordinary course of business, provided that the customer properly fulfills their payment obligations toward us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                              In the event of late payment, we are entitled to demand the return of goods subject to retention of title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                \n
                              1. Inspection of Goods and Complaints<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                                The customer is obliged to inspect the goods immediately upon receipt or pickup regarding quantity, quality, visible damage, packaging damage, and completeness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                Visible defects, transport damage, or quantity differences must be reported in writing immediately, but no later than 24 hours after receipt of the goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                For food products, fresh goods, or perishable goods, immediate inspection is especially important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                Later complaints can only be considered if the defect was not recognizable during proper inspection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                The customer must store complained goods properly and may not dispose of, return, or resell them without our consent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  \n
                                1. Food Products, Storage, and Shelf Life<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                                  For food products, the customer is obliged to observe all legal regulations, hygiene rules, storage instructions, temperature requirements, and best-before dates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  After handover of the goods, the customer is responsible for proper storage, handling, and resale of the products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  We are not liable for damage, quality loss, or spoilage caused by improper storage, incorrect temperature, damaged packaging after handover, or improper handling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  Best-before dates and batch numbers must be checked and observed by the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    \n
                                  1. Returns and Exchanges<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                                    Returns or exchanges of defect-free goods are generally excluded unless expressly agreed otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    This applies in particular to food products, perishable goods, special orders, promotional goods, opened packaging, or products specially procured for the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                    Returns are only possible with the prior written consent of Maria Handel GmbH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                      \n
                                    1. Right of Withdrawal<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                                      Our offer is primarily directed at business customers and entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                      Business customers generally do not have a statutory right of withdrawal like consumers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                      As no direct online purchase takes place through this website, no automatic distance contract is concluded through the website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                      If, in individual cases, a contract is concluded with a consumer, the statutory consumer protection and withdrawal rights apply where legally required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                        \n
                                      1. Warranty<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                                        The statutory warranty rights apply unless otherwise agreed below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                        For business customers, warranty claims require that the customer has properly fulfilled their legal inspection and complaint obligations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                        In case of justified defects, we may choose to provide replacement delivery, repair, price reduction, or take back the goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                        Warranty claims do not apply to damage caused by improper storage, incorrect handling, improper transport by the customer, or failure to observe storage and usage instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                          \n
                                        1. Liability<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                                          Maria Handel GmbH is fully liable in cases of intent, gross negligence, and injury to life, body, or health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                          In case of slightly negligent breach of essential contractual obligations, liability is limited to the typical and foreseeable damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                          Any further liability is excluded to the extent permitted by law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                          We are not liable for damage caused by improper storage, improper resale, incorrect use of the goods, or failure by the customer to comply with legal regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                            \n
                                          1. Product Images and Product Information<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                                            Product images on the website are for illustration purposes only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                            Differences in packaging, design, origin, content, weight, color, or labeling may occur, provided they do not significantly affect the usability of the goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                            All product information is prepared carefully. However, changes by manufacturers, suppliers, or legal requirements may occur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                            The information on the respective product packaging, offer, or invoice is decisive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                              \n
                                            1. Product Availability<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                                              Product availability depends on stock, suppliers, season, import conditions, and demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                              We do not guarantee that all products displayed on the website are available at all times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                              If a product is not available, we will inform the customer and may offer alternative products if desired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                \n
                                              1. Rights to Images, Texts, and Content<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                                                All content on this website, especially texts, images, product presentations, logos, graphics, and other content, is protected by copyright unless expressly stated otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                The use, reproduction, editing, or distribution of website content is not permitted without the prior written consent of Maria Handel GmbH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                  \n
                                                1. Data Protection<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                                                  Information about the processing of personal data can be found in our Privacy Policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                  The website is used as a catalog and does not collect customer data through registration, customer accounts, or online payment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                  If customers contact us by email, phone, or other communication channels, the data provided will be used only to process the inquiry and handle business communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                    \n
                                                  1. Dispute Resolution<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                                                    The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                    However, since our website does not offer direct online sales, no direct online contract is concluded through the website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                    We are not obliged and not willing to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board, unless legally required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                      \n
                                                    1. Applicable Law<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
