Part A – General Provisions (All Customers)
§ 1 Scope and Definitions
(1) The following General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter "GTC") apply to all contracts concluded between you and us as the provider (Bormann Bioscience LLC, hereinafter "we", "us", or "Seller") via the websites https://parahealth.de and https://parahealth.com, unless otherwise agreed in writing between the parties.
(2) "Business Customer" within the meaning of these GTC is any natural or legal person, or a partnership with legal capacity, who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity (§ 14 BGB – German Civil Code).
(3) "Consumer" within the meaning of these GTC is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither attributable to their commercial nor their independent professional activity (§ 13 BGB – German Civil Code).
(4) Depending on whether you are ordering as a Business Customer or a Consumer, the provisions in Part B (for Business Customers) or Part C (for Consumers) shall apply in addition to the provisions in Part A.
§ 2 Formation of Contract
(1) The subject matter of the contract is the sale of goods. The essential characteristics of the goods can be found in the respective offer.
(2) Our offers on the internet are non-binding and without obligation. They do not constitute a binding offer to conclude a contract.
(3) You may submit a binding contractual offer (order) by telephone, email, fax, post, or via the online shopping cart system.
(4) Acceptance of the offer (and thus formation of the contract) is effected by an express order confirmation in text form (e.g., email) or by dispatch of the goods. A mere acknowledgment of receipt of the order does not constitute acceptance of the offer.
(5) Upon request, we will prepare an individual offer for you, to which we shall remain bound for 5 days, unless otherwise agreed.
§ 3 Prices and Shipping Costs
(1) Applicable shipping costs are not included in the purchase price and will be charged separately, unless free shipping has been offered. Any shipping costs will be communicated to you separately before completion of the order.
(2) Goods are shipped by default from our warehouse in Germany (Berlin). For cross-border deliveries, additional taxes, duties, or customs charges may apply which are beyond our control and shall be borne entirely by the Buyer.
(3) The available payment methods will be communicated to you before completion of the order.
§ 4 Delivery Conditions
(1) Delivery dates and delivery periods are only binding if they have been confirmed by us in writing.
(2) Should an ordered product be unavailable for reasons beyond our control, we will inform you without delay and refund any payments already made.
§ 5 Liability
(1) We shall be liable without limitation for damages arising from injury to life, body, or health caused by an intentional or negligent breach of duty by us, our legal representatives, or our vicarious agents.
(2) We shall be liable without limitation for other damages caused by an intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty by us, our legal representatives, or our vicarious agents.
(3) Liability under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz) shall remain unaffected.
(4) Further limitations of liability for Business Customers are set out in Part B § 5.
§ 6 Governing Law
(1) The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply, with the express exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).
(2) This choice of law shall not restrict the mandatory consumer protection provisions of the country in which the Consumer has their habitual residence (Art. 6(2) Rome I Regulation).
§ 7 Data Protection
Information on the processing of your personal data in connection with the performance of the contract can be found in our Privacy Policy.
Part B – Additional Provisions for Business Customers (B2B)
The following provisions apply exclusively to Business Customers within the meaning of § 14 BGB (German Civil Code) and supplement the provisions in Part A.
§ 1 Deviating Terms of the Customer
Any deviating or conflicting general terms and conditions of the Customer are expressly rejected and shall only be effective with our express written consent.
§ 2 Prices and Payment Terms
(1) All prices quoted are net prices, exclusive of the applicable statutory value-added tax (VAT).
(2) We offer purchase on account. Unless a different payment period is stated on the invoice, payment claims arising from the contract are due within 14 days of the invoice date, without deduction.
(3) Deduction of cash discounts (Skonto) is only permissible if expressly stated on the invoice.
(4) If the Buyer is in default of payment, we shall be entitled to charge default interest at the statutory rate (currently 9 percentage points above the respective base interest rate, § 288(2) BGB) as well as reasonable dunning fees.
§ 3 Transfer of Risk and Partial Deliveries
(1) The risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods shall pass to the Buyer upon delivery of the goods to the forwarding agent, carrier, or other person or institution designated to carry out the shipment.
(2) Partial deliveries are permissible and may be invoiced separately by us.
§ 4 Warranty
(1) The warranty period is one (1) year from delivery of the goods. This limitation period does not apply to damages attributable to us from injury to life, body, or health, or in the case of intentional or grossly negligent conduct.
(2) Only our own specifications and the manufacturer's product description shall be deemed agreed as the quality of the goods; other advertising or public statements shall not apply.
(3) In the event of defects, we shall provide warranty, at our discretion, by repair or replacement delivery. In the case of repair, we shall not bear the increased costs arising from the transport of the goods to a location other than the contractual place of performance, unless such transport corresponds to the intended use of the goods.
(4) The Buyer shall inspect the goods immediately upon receipt and notify us of any defects in writing without delay. Failing this, the goods shall be deemed approved (§§ 377, 381 HGB – German Commercial Code).
§ 5 Limitation of Liability
(1) Beyond the cases regulated in Part A § 5, in the event of a slightly negligent breach of material contractual obligations (cardinal obligations), our liability shall be limited in amount to the foreseeable damage typical for the contract. Material contractual obligations are those whose fulfillment is essential for the proper performance of the contract and on whose compliance the contractual partner may regularly rely.
(2) In the event of a slightly negligent breach of non-material contractual obligations, we shall not be liable.
(3) The foregoing limitations of liability shall also apply in favor of our legal representatives and vicarious agents.
(4) The limitations of liability in paragraphs 1 and 2 shall not apply to claims arising from injury to life, body, or health, in cases of intent or gross negligence, in the event of an assumed guarantee, or under the Product Liability Act.
§ 6 Right of Retention and Retention of Title
(1) You may only exercise a right of retention insofar as it concerns claims from the same contractual relationship that have been established by a final court judgment or are undisputed.
(2) We retain title to the delivered goods until full payment of all claims arising from the ongoing business relationship (extended retention of title).
(3) The Buyer may resell the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business. In this case, the Buyer hereby assigns to us all claims in the amount of the invoice value arising from the resale; we accept the assignment. The Buyer remains authorized to collect the claim. Insofar as the Buyer fails to meet their payment obligations properly, we reserve the right to collect the claims ourselves.
(4) Release clause: If the realizable value of the securities exceeds our total claims by more than 10%, we shall, at the Buyer's request, release securities of our choice.
§ 7 Place of Performance and Jurisdiction
(1) The place of performance for all obligations arising from the business relationship with us is our warehouse in Berlin, Germany.
(2) The exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with this contract – including claims brought by the Buyer against the Seller – shall be the Seller's registered office in Miami, Florida (USA), provided the Buyer is a merchant (Kaufmann), a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law.
(3) Notwithstanding paragraph 2, the Seller shall be entitled to bring claims against the Buyer at the Buyer's general place of jurisdiction, at the place of performance in Berlin, or at any other court having jurisdiction under applicable law within the European Union or the European Economic Area.
(4) The jurisdiction of courts based on mandatory statutory provisions (in particular exclusive jurisdictions) shall remain unaffected.

§ 1 Prices

§ 2 Payment Terms
(1) The available payment methods are communicated to you during the ordering process and on our "Payment & Shipping" page.
(2) Unless otherwise stated for individual payment methods, payment claims arising from the contract are due immediately.
§ 3 Transfer of Risk
(1) The risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods sold shall pass to you upon delivery. In the case of a purchase involving shipment, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods shall only pass to you upon delivery of the goods to you, regardless of whether the shipment is insured or uninsured (§ 475(2) BGB).
§ 4 Warranty
(1) The statutory warranty rights shall apply. The warranty period is two (2) years from delivery of the goods (§ 438(1) No. 3 BGB).
(2) If the purchased item is defective, you are entitled, at your choice, to demand subsequent performance in the form of remediation of the defect (repair) or delivery of a defect-free item (replacement). After unsuccessful subsequent performance, you shall be entitled to the further statutory remedies (price reduction, withdrawal, damages).
§ 5 Right of Withdrawal
(1) As a Consumer, you have a statutory right of withdrawal for distance contracts. The complete withdrawal instructions, including the model withdrawal form, can be found on our separate page:
Withdrawal Instructions & Model Withdrawal Form
(2) The right of withdrawal does not apply or expires prematurely for contracts for the delivery of sealed goods that are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after delivery (§ 312g(2) No. 3 BGB).
§ 6 Jurisdiction
(1) For claims brought by the Consumer against the Seller, the statutory rules of jurisdiction shall apply. Consumers may in particular bring claims before the court at their place of domicile.
(2) For claims brought by the Seller against the Consumer, the Consumer's place of domicile shall be decisive, unless the claim relates to a contractual obligation and the Consumer has no fixed domicile in Germany, has moved their domicile abroad after conclusion of the contract, or their domicile is unknown at the time the action is filed.
§ 7 Alternative Dispute Resolution
(1) The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution (ODR): https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/
