5.4 Customers can find information regarding the handling of Customer data in context with Data Privacy on the website www.gamersware.com.

6. Prices and Payments

6.1Unless otherwise agreed, our current prices at the time of the order apply, ex warehouse, plus any applicable statutory sales tax. Under no circumstances will Caseking pay the costs of a money transaction.

6.2The due date for the payment of the purchase price is determined by the payment term of the respective order.

6.3Caseking reserves the right to request an appropriate price adjustment by means of a declaration in text form if, after the conclusion of the contract, Caseking’s purchase costs increase as a result of a price increase by our suppliers or due to exchange rate fluctuations. Such a price increase will only take effect if Customer has agreed to the increase request. If the Customer does not give his consent within 7 business days upon receipt of the increase request, also in text form, Caseking is entitled to withdraw from the contract within 7 business days.

6.4The Customer bears the transportation costs for shipping and delivery from the warehouse. If the transportation company is commissioned via Caseking, the maximum insured value of the goods is based on the information provided by the respective transportation company, whereby the damage must be reported regularly within 7 days of occurrence:

Max. Insured Value of Goods

DHL

All packages are insured up to 500€.

FEDEX

20€ for every kg, above production price.

For any values of goods above the above-mentioned maximum insured values, the Customer bears the risk, costs and responsibility for a sufficient additional insurance protection.

6.5Any customs duties, fees, taxes and other public charges are borne by the Customer.

6.6Any interest rate occurring during a period of default shall be calculated at the applicable statutory default interest rate. Caseking reserves the right to claim further damage caused by default. § 353 of the German Commercial Code remains unaffected.

6.7The Customer is only entitled to set-off rights or retention rights insofar as his claim has been legally decided or is undisputed. In the event of defects in the delivery, the provisions of section 10 of these T&C remain unaffected.

6.8If, after the conclusion of the contract, it becomes apparent that our claim to the purchase price is endangered by the Customer's inability to pay (e.g. by filing for insolvency), Caseking is entitled to refuse the delivery and - if necessary after setting a deadline - withdraw from the contract in accordance with the statutory provisions regarding the refusal to perform (§ 321 German Civil Code).

6.9If necessary, invoices, credit notes and other documents relevant for the processing and payment of the order will be sent exclusively in digital form to the email address provided by the customer.


7. Delivery, Place of Performance, Transfer of Risk, Notification of Damage and Default in Acceptance

7.1The goods offered via the online spare parts webpages are mostly kept in stock, whereby the respective stock amount is limited to certain quantities. For larger orders availability should be clarified with the Customer service.

7.2If one and the same order contains goods with different availabilities, shipping will generally only take place when all goods contained in the order are available together, unless something else is expressly agreed with the Customer.

7.3 The place of performance is the responsible warehouse assigned by Caseking. At request and expense of Customer, the goods will be sent to a different destination. Unless otherwise agreed, Caseking is entitled to determine the type of shipment (i.e. transportation company, shipping route, packaging).

7.4The risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods is transferred to the Customer when the goods are handed over. In the case of shipping, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods as well as the risk of delay are transferred to the Customer when the goods are handed over to the transportation company, the carrier or the person or institution otherwise assigned to carry out the shipment. The Customer's default in acceptance is equivalent to the handover.

7.5If the delivered goods show recognizable damage or shortages, the Customer must note this in writing on the delivery receipt of the transport company upon delivery. Customer must clearly describe the damage or the shortfall (notification of damage in accordance with § 438 of the German Commercial Code). Under no circumstances is the Customer entitled to refuse to accept the goods.

7.6 If the Customer is in default of acceptance, if he fails to cooperate or if Caseking delays the delivery for other reasons for which the Customer is responsible, Caseking is entitled to demand compensation for any resulting damage, including additional expenses (e.g. storage costs). Customer's goods which remain in the warehouse due to a refusal to accept the delivery, a performance claim or unauthorized delivery to Caseking will be charged with a storage fee of 1.50 EUR per day from the 15th day of storage. As soon as the value of the goods or the 180th day of storage is reached, the goods become the property of Caseking without replacement for the Customer.


8. Default in Delivery

8.1Default in delivery is determined by the applicable statutory provisions. A reminder from the Customer is required for the occurrence of default of delivery.

8.2Delivery for prepayment orders will only take place after Caseking has received the full prepayment. Caseking will not reserve the ordered goods for the Customer as long as the prepayment has not been received in full. If the ordered goods are sold out and have to be reordered before the Customer made the prepayment, Caseking will inform the Customer immediately about any possible delay in delivery due to the belated prepayment.

8.3The delivery time can be extended due to adverse circumstances of force majeure. Circumstances of this kind can be: strikes, lockouts, official interventions, energy and raw material shortages, transport bottlenecks, operational hindrances, for example due to fire, water and machine damage and all other hindrances that, from an objective point of view, were not caused by Caseking. The Customer will be informed immediately of the beginning and end of such circumstances.

8.4If Caseking is unable to deliver the ordered goods through no fault of its own because one of Caseking's suppliers does not fulfil its contractual obligations, Caseking is entitled to withdraw from the contract with the Customer including the right to withdraw only partially. However, this right to withdraw from the contract only exists if Caseking has concluded a congruent covering transaction (binding, timely and sufficient order of the goods) with the supplier in question and if Caseking is not responsible for the non-delivery of the goods in any other way. In the event of such a withdrawal, the Customer will be informed immediately that the ordered product is not available. Payments already made by the Customer will be refunded immediately.


9. Reservation of Ownership

9.1 The delivered goods remain the property of Caseking until they have been paid for in full.

9.2 As long as ownership has not yet passed to Customer, Customer is obliged to treat the goods with care. If maintenance and inspection work have to be carried out, Customer must carry out such work in good time at his own expense. As long as ownership has not yet passed, the Customer must immediately notify Caseking in writing if the delivered item is seized or exposed to other interventions by third parties. If the third party is not able to reimburse Caseking for the judicial and extrajudicial costs of a lawsuit in accordance with § 771 of the German Code of Trial Procedure, the Customer is liable for any loss incurred by Caseking, unless Customer has done everything reasonable to prevent the seizure of the goods and informed Caseking immediately or – if Caseking was not informed immediately – was not responsible for the lack of promptness of Caseking’s information.

9.3The Customer is entitled to resell the reserved goods within the normal course of business. The Customer hereby assigns to Caseking all of Customer’s rights and claims resulting from the resale of the goods in the amount of the final invoice amount agreed with Caseking for the respective goods (including VAT). This assignment applies regardless of whether the purchased goods have been resold before or after they have been altered or processed in any way. The Customer remains authorized to collect his claims even after the assignment. Caseking's authority to collect any claims itself remains unaffected. However, Caseking will not collect any claims as long as Customer meets its payment obligations from the proceeds received, is not in default of payment and, in particular, if Customer has not filed for insolvency proceedings or ceased payments towards its business partners.

9.4The handling and processing or transformation of the purchased goods is always carried out in the name of and on behalf of Caseking. In this case, Customer's entitlement to the purchased goods continues with the remodelled goods. If a purchased good is processed together with other items that do not belong to Caseking, Caseking acquires joint ownership of the new item in the ratio of the objective value of the purchased good to the other processed items at the time of processing or transformation. The same applies in the event of commingling. If the commingling takes place in such a way that the Customer's added item is to be regarded as the main item, it is agreed that the Customer shall transfer proportional joint ownership to Caseking and that Customer shall hold the resulting sole ownership or joint ownership for Caseking.

9.4Caseking undertakes to release the securities to which Caseking is entitled at Customer's request, insofar as their value exceeds the claims to be secured by more than 20%.


10. Statutory Warranty for Defects (Warranty)

10.1 The statutory provisions apply to the Customer's rights in the event of material defects and defects of title (including incorrect and short deliveries as well as improper assembly or inadequate assembly instructions), unless otherwise specified below. In all cases, the special statutory provisions the final delivery of the goods to a consumer remain unaffected (§§ 478, 479 of the German Civil Code).

10.2The basis for Caseking’s liability for defects shall primarily be the agreement made on the quality of the goods. All product descriptions become an integral part of the agreement and define the quality of the goods. Insofar as the quality has not been agreed or described, the applicable statutory provisions assess whether or not there is a defect (§ 434 of the German Civil Code). Caseking is not liable for public statements made by the manufacturer or other third parties (e.g. advertising statements).

10.3All images used for the presentation of goods in Caseking's online offers are only sample photos. They do not represent the respective article in every case true to life, but serve only illustration purposes. Especially in the case of colours, there may be deviations due to the different representation on different screens. Decisive is the technical description of the item.

10.4Blemishes such as coil whine, colour deviations, etc. are not a material defect as long as they range within the tolerances of the corresponding manufacturer standards or production standards.

10.5The Customer is obliged to back up any data on the goods before they are returned. Caseking is not responsible for any loss of data on returned devices.

10.6The Customer's claims for defects require that Customer has complied with his statutory inspection and notification obligations (§§ 377, 381 of the German Commercial Code). If a defect becomes apparent during the inspection or later, Caseking must be notified immediately in writing. The notification is deemed to be immediate if it is received within two weeks. A timely sending of the notification shall be deemed sufficient to meet the deadline.

10.7Irrespective of Customer’s obligation to inspect and notify, Customer must notify obvious defects (including incorrect and short deliveries) in writing within seven days of delivery, whereby the timely sending of the notification shall be deemed sufficient to meet the deadline. If the Customer fails to properly inspect and / or report defects, our liability for those obvious defects which have not been reported is excluded, unless Caseking acted with intent or with gross negligence.

10.8If the delivered item is defective, Caseking can first choose whether Caseking provides warranty services by eliminating the defect (warranty service) or by delivering a defect-free item (replacement delivery). Caseking's right to refuse the selected type of warranty service under the legal requirements remains unaffected.

10.9 Caseking is entitled to make the warranty service owed dependent on the Customer paying the full due purchase price. However, the Customer is entitled to withhold part of the purchase price that is reasonable in relation to the defect.

10.10Customer must give Caseking the necessary time and opportunity required for the warranty service owed and hand over the defective goods for inspection purposes. In the case of a necessary replacement of the goods, Customer must return the defective item to Caseking in accordance with the statutory provisions.

10.11Customer (Reseller) bears the expenses occurring in context with the provision of its warranty services, in particular the costs of transportation, travel, labour and material. Caseking bears the necessary expenses, if Customer is an end user and if there is an actual defect covered by the warranty. If the Customer's complaint proves to be unreasonable or unfounded due to the lack of a warranty-triggering material defect of the goods, Caseking may subsequently request the Customer to reimburse all costs incurred.

10.12If the warranty services have failed or if a reasonable deadline set by Customer for the provision of warranty services has expired without success regarding the provision of warranty services or if it is dispensable according to the applicable statutory provisions, Customer can withdraw from the Agreement or reduce the purchase price. There shall be no right of withdrawal for minor defects though.

10.13For damages or defects caused by improper or unsuitable use contrary to the intended use, or by incorrect commissioning or assembly, natural wear and tear, negligent or wilful damage, negligent or incorrect use, non-observance of the maintenance or operating instructions as well as improper repair work or changes by the Customer or a third party, no warranty is given by Caseking.


11. Liability

11.1Caseking is liable in accordance with the statutory provisions for damage caused by Caseking’s or its agents’ intentional or grossly negligent behaviour. The same applies to personal injury and damage under the Product Liability Act.

11.2 Caseking's liability for claims for damages - regardless of the legal reason - is limited in accordance with the following provisions, unless otherwise stated in a written guarantee made by Caseking:

11.2.1 Caseking's liability for breaches of essential contractual obligations caused by slight negligence is limited to the typically foreseeable damage.

11.2.2 Caseking's liability for the loss of data and / or programs caused by Caseking’s slight negligence is limited to the typical restoration effort that would have been incurred if the contractual partner had backed up data regularly and, in the circumstances, appropriately.

11.2.3 3 For damage caused by delay through Caseking’s slight negligence, Caseking's liability is limited to the typically foreseeable damage, but it shall not exceed more than 5% of the total contract value.

11.3 The provisions of the preceding paragraph also apply to a limitation of Caseking’s obligation to pay compensation for wasted expenses (§ 284 of the German Civil Code).

11.4 Caseking is not liable for the slightly negligent breach of obligations other than those mentioned in the preceding sentences.

11.5 Caseking is only liable for consequential damage resulting from material defects in purchased products that Caseking has imported itself and for which there is no national representation of the manufacturer. Furthermore, Caseking is not liable for damage resulting from errors in advice and product descriptions or for damage caused by incorrect or improper handling.

11.6 All the above limitations of liability also apply in favour of Caseking's employees, representatives and vicarious agents.

11.7 Casekings' liability is excluded in all other cases.

12. Statute of Limitations

12.1 In deviation from § 438 I no. 3 of the German Civil Code, the general limitation period for claims arising from material and legal defects is one year from the transfer of risk. The above limitation period also applies to contractual and non-contractual claims for damages by the Customer that are based on a defect in the goods, unless the application of the regular statutory limitation period (§§ 195, 199 of the German Civil Code) would result in a shorter limitation period in individual cases.

12.2 The limitation of the product liability law remains unaffected. The statutory limitation periods apply to any other claims for damages by the Customer.

13. Exclusion of Liability for Hyperlinks

On www.gamersware.com hyperlinks may refer to other websites. Caseking has no influence whatsoever on the content of these websites, Caseking does not adopt them as its own and accepts no liability for their content. As soon as Caseking becomes aware of illegal content, Caseking will delete the corresponding hyperlinks on www.gamersware.com.

14. Data Security

In the course of Customer’s order request on www.gamersware.com Customer will be asked to submit personal data. This is data is needed for the processing and execution of the order.

Caseking engages other companies and individuals with the fulfilment of tasks, such as parcel delivery, customer support and correspondence, maintaining customer lists, analyzing databases, marketing services, payment processing, credit management and others. These thirdparty service providers have access to personal data that is necessary for the execution of their

services. However, these service providers may not use data for any other purpose. In addition, they are obliged to treat the information in accordance with the relevant data protection laws. Caseking treats all personal data confidentially and in accordance with the relevant legal regulations, in particular those of the Federal Data Protection Act. In order to secure the data in online payment transactions, Caseking protects them with the most modern encryption techniques such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL).

Caseking's data protection declaration is available at www.gamersware.com.


15. Applicable Law and Place of Jurisdiction

The application of the UN Sales Convention (CISG) is expressly excluded as well as all international and supranational (contractual) legal systems. The prerequisites and effects of the reservation of ownership in accordance with no 9 of these T&C are subject to the law at the respective location of the goods for cases in which the choice of law made in favour of German law is inadmissible or ineffective.

15.2 The exclusive place of jurisdiction is the registered office of Caseking for all current and future claims from contractual relationships with any legal entity, legal body, company, society or incorporation or any natural person who concludes a legal agreement for commercial purposes.

7.5 In order for Caseking to insure any claims against the freight company due to transport damage of the goods, Caseking must notify the freight company of both, externally visible transport damage upon delivery of the order and externally unrecognizable transport damage. Otherwise Caseking and the freight company must assume that the order was delivered without transport damage to the detriment of Caseking. Caseking therefore formulates the following friendly request to its Customers, which does NOT result in any obligation for the Customer:
Should a transport damage be likely in your eyes, e. g. because the packaging is visibly badly damaged at the outside, compressed, torn or because the content (fragile goods) make a funny sound during the "shake test", please open the packaging in the presence of the parcel carrier and check whether the goods are damaged, broken or deformed or whether goods with their housings clink when they are shaken. If this check reveals any transport damage, please have the damage confirmed by the parcel carrier. The postman is obliged to do so. If possible, please leave the goods in their original packaging and do not use them. Please inform us about the damage immediately by phone or email. We will take care of the settlement of the case.
In all other cases, we also friendly ask you to always unpack the goods promptly after delivery and to check them for any damage. If you discover that the delivered goods are damaged, please leave the goods - as far as possible - in their original packaging and do not use them. Try to leave the shipping box as it was when it was delivered. Please inform us immediately by phone or email about the damage so that we can take care of the settlement of the case.

7.6 Your warranty claims and rights due to any transport damage are not affected by any of the above.

8.3 The delivery time can be extended due to adverse circumstances of force majeure. Circumstances of this kind can be: strikes, lockouts, official interventions, energy and raw material shortages, transport bottlenecks, operational hindrances, for example due to fire, water and machine damage and all other hindrances that, from an objective point of view, were not caused by Caseking. The Customer will be informed immediately of the beginning and end of such circumstances.

8.4 If Caseking is unable to deliver the ordered goods through no fault of its own because one of Caseking's suppliers does not fulfil its contractual obligations, Caseking is entitled to withdraw from the contract with the Customer. However, this right to withdraw from the contract only exists if Caseking has concluded a congruent covering transaction (binding, timely and sufficient order of the goods) with the supplier in question and if Caseking is not responsible for the non-delivery of the goods in any other way. In the event of such a withdrawal, the Customer will be informed immediately that the ordered product is not available. Payments already made by the Customer will be refunded immediately.

Caseking will fulfil the warranty services as long as no reasonable economic damage for Caseking is exceeded.

After the dispatch of the email, Customer has 14 days to restore the character of the goods through repair, completion, cleaning, replacement or restoration.
