1. scope of application
The following General Terms and Conditions apply exclusively to the business relationship between Expo Network GmbH and the customer. When an order is placed, these terms and conditions are deemed to have been accepted. All declarations of intent, additions, deviations or ancillary agreements must be made in writing.
2. conclusion of contract
The customer’s order, even verbally or by telephone, is a binding offer. The contract is concluded when we have confirmed acceptance of the order in writing within the set period or the delivery has been carried out. The customer’s order relates to goods as shown or described on our website. We reserve the right to deviate from the dimensions, design and colors of the goods as shown on our website. In the event of typographical, printing and calculation errors on the website, we are entitled to reject the offer and to withdraw from the contract.
3. prices and terms of payment
All prices are exclusive of the currently applicable statutory value added tax. Unless otherwise agreed, the first half of the order amount is due when the order is placed and the second half when the stand is handed over. Both amounts are due without deduction. Repeat orders will be invoiced on a time and material basis, unless specified in an additional offer. In the event of default in payment, the Contractor may claim minimum default damages of 5% above the respective base interest rate of the European Central Bank. Expo Network GmbH has the right to refuse delivery in the event of late payment or to take back contractual items that have already been delivered.
4. use of the stand, insurance, liability of the hirer
The tenant must treat the rented property with care. He can use the individual wall elements to screw on decorative material, but must ensure that the overall statics of the stand are not jeopardized by excessively heavy wall loads. No stand elements may be altered in their structure. Fundamental changes may only be made to the stand set up by the lessor. The lessee is generally obliged to insure the rented property against theft for the duration of the event or the contractual relationship at the replacement price, unless the lessee makes use of the insurance offered by the lessor for a fee. He shall be liable for loss of the rental items to the amount of the replacement value; for damage to the rental items he shall be liable to the amount of the repair value up to a maximum of the replacement value.
5 Notification obligation in special cases
The tenant must inform the landlord immediately if: a) third parties assert rights to the stand in any form whatsoever, b) as well as in the event of force majeure (water, fire, etc.), c) and in the event of theft of individual parts of the rental stand.
6. warranty
Any liability on the part of the lessor for damage to property and personal injury in connection with the rental use is limited to intent and gross negligence. Incomplete or incorrect delivery as well as obvious defects must be reported to the Lessor immediately upon discovery. In principle, the tenant can only demand rectification as a warranty. The lessor reserves the right to make a replacement delivery. Any further liability of the Lessor for damages shall in any case be limited to the amount of the rental price.
7. right of termination and withdrawal
Cancellation on the part of the hirer is possible up to 6 weeks before the start of construction, in which case an expense allowance amounting to 50% of the order value must be paid to the lessor.
Termination of the tenancy agreement is only possible if this is based on a breach of duty by the landlord.
8. severability clause
