Terms of Use
1. These General Terms and Conditions apply to all business relationships between our company and our business partners.
The business relationships between our company and our business partners are B2B transactions and are therefore not subject to the provisions of the Consumer Protection Act. Therefore, the business partner has no right of withdrawal.
However, contractual provisions or legal regulations for withdrawal from a contract may apply, e.g., in cases of defects or non-fulfillment of contractual obligations.
It is important that our business partners familiarize themselves with the applicable legal provisions and contractual regulations and take these into account in their contracts with us. Our company is always available to our business partners for any questions regarding the legal aspects of our business relationships.
1.1 The use of DIE AUTOFLASHER GMBH products, software, services, and websites (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Services” and excluding any services provided by DIE AUTOFLASHER GMBH under a separate written agreement) is subject to the terms of a legally valid agreement between the user and DIE AUTOFLASHER GMBH. “DIE AUTOFLASHER GMBH” is defined as DIE AUTOFLASHER GMBH, whose principal place of business is at Sportplatzgasse 32b, in 2443 Leithaprodersdorf, Austria, and its subsidiaries, affiliated companies, and partners.
