Chapter 5: Disclaimers
Article 10 [Disclaimers]
We shall bear no liability whatsoever for any damages incurred by a third party due to a user's or purchaser's violation of these Terms.
We make no warranties whatsoever regarding the content of the Service or the information obtained by users or purchasers through the Service, including but not limited to its completeness, accuracy, reliability, or usefulness.
In principle, we shall bear no liability for any damages arising from the use of the Service by users or purchasers, nor shall we be obligated to compensate for such damages. However, if the disclaimer provisions do not apply—for instance, because the contract based on these Terms between us and the user or purchaser constitutes a "consumer contract" as defined in Article 2, Paragraph 3 of the Consumer Contract Act (Act No. 61 of 2000)—then the provisions of these Terms that completely exempt us from liability shall not apply. Furthermore, in cases where the contract based on these Terms constitutes a consumer contract and we are held liable for damages due to a breach of contract or a tort, our liability shall be limited to the total amount paid to us by the User or Purchaser under these Terms during the one-year period preceding the date the damage occurred, except in cases where we have acted with willful misconduct or gross negligence.
In the event that the Purchaser fails to accept or refuses delivery of the Product, is unable to accept delivery due to prolonged absence, the delivery address is unknown, or the Product cannot be delivered for other reasons attributable to the Purchaser, we shall be deemed to have fulfilled our obligation to deliver the Product—and shall be released from said obligation—by contacting the contact details registered by the Purchaser and either bringing the Product to or shipping it to the delivery address specified at the time of purchase.
Chapter 6: Miscellaneous Provisions
Article 11 [Copyright and Intellectual Property Rights]
Content provided through this Service shall belong exclusively to us or to third parties holding legitimate rights thereto.
