If the customer defaults on payment, GD-Medical GmbH is entitled, without prejudice to further rights, to exercise a right of retention for all outstanding deliveries and services without prior notice or to demand advance payment or security for them at its own discretion.

- The delivery period is met if the products have left the factory or the distribution center by the end of the period or if GD-Medical GmbH has notified that they are ready for collection or dispatch. The delivery is subject to timely and proper self-delivery.
- In the event of a delay in delivery, the customer is only entitled to withdraw from the contract after the unsuccessful expiry of a reasonable period of grace with a threat of rejection, which he has given GD-Medical GmbH after the delay in delivery occurred, and only insofar as GD-Medical GmbH is responsible for the delay in delivery undisputedly responsible. At the request of GD-Medical GmbH, the customer must declare within a reasonable period of time whether he will withdraw from the contract after the deadline due to a delay in delivery or whether he will insist on the delivery.
- If GD-Medical GmbH has concluded a framework agreement with the customer for future deliveries with fixed delivery dates and the customer does not call off the products in good time, GD-Medical GmbH is entitled to deliver the products and to withdraw from the contract or, if the customer has acted culpably, to demand damages instead of performance.

- Customers to whom products have been supplied by GD-Medical GmbH hereby expressly declare their willingness to be named by GD-Medical GmbH as references for advertising purposes. GD-Medical GmbH may name the logos and the company of the customers to third parties and the public at its own discretion and advertise with the customers as a reference.
- Passing of risk
- The transfer of risk takes place as soon as the products have been handed over to the person carrying out the transport or, for the purpose of dispatch, the warehouse of GD-Medical GmbH or the producer of GD-Medical GmbH, provided that the delivery is made from there directly to the customer leaves. This also applies if partial deliveries are made or if GD-Medical GmbH has taken on additional services, such as the transport costs. Shipping can be done on behalf of the customer and/or by GD-Medical GmbH. If there are no written instructions from the customer and GD-Medical GmbH has agreed to them in writing, GD-Medical GmbH determines the type of shipment. Unless otherwise agreed, GD-Medical GmbH will insure the products at the customer’s request with transport insurance against the risks to be specified by the customer. The costs of the transport insurance are borne by the customer unless GD-Medical GmbH has agreed in writing to assume the costs for the transport insurance.
- In the event of a breach of the customer’s obligation to cooperate, such as, for example, but not limited to, default in acceptance, GD-Medical GmbH can demand compensation for the damage incurred, including any additional expenses. The risk of accidental loss or accidental deterioration of the products passes to the customer at the point in time at which he defaults in acceptance or violates another obligation to cooperate. GD-Medical GmbH is entitled to otherwise dispose of the products after a reasonable period has expired without result or to supply the customer within a reasonably extended period.
- Delivered products are to be accepted by the customer without prejudice to his claims for defects even if they have minor defects.
- Claims for defects, guarantee and liability
- GD-Medical GmbH strives to deliver products of perfect quality. The customer acknowledges that GD-Medical GmbH itself is not the producer of the products and is therefore only liable for the products as a supplier within the legally possible minimum framework, even if the products list the brand and label of GD-Medical GmbH for marketing purposes be able. GD-Medical GmbH does not provide any guarantee on the delivered products that goes beyond the warranty and all liability claims are to be asserted directly and exclusively against the product manufacturer. Any liability of GD-Medical GmbH, as far as legally possible, is void and is expressly excluded to the extent legally possible.
- GD-Medical GmbH excludes in particular any liability, regardless of its legal basis, as well as claims for damages against GD-Medical GmbH and any auxiliary persons and vicarious agents. In particular, GD-Medical GmbH is not liable for indirect damage and consequential damage, loss of profit or other personal injury, property damage and pure financial loss of the customer. A further mandatory legal liability remains reserved, for example for gross negligence or unlawful intent.
- All information about suitability, processing, quality, properties and use of the products as well as technical advice and other information do not represent independent guarantees or guarantees within the meaning of § 443 BGB and expressly do not release the customer from their own tests and investigations. Third-party property rights must be observed when using the products.
- The statutory warranty rights of the customer presuppose that the delivered products are adequately and properly inspected upon receipt or have them inspected, if reasonable also by means of trial processing or use, and that GD-Medical GmbH reports defects immediately, but no later than three days after receipt of the products, in writing.
- Hidden defects must be reported to GD-Medical GmbH in writing immediately, no later than three days after their discovery. The customer must describe the defects in writing and in detail when notifying GD-Medical GmbH.
- In the event of defects in the products, GD-Medical GmbH is entitled to choose whether to remedy the defect or deliver a product free of defects.
- If GD-Medical GmbH is not willing or unable to provide supplementary performance, the customer can choose to reduce the delivery price or withdraw from the contract, without prejudice to any claims for damages or reimbursement of expenses in accordance with these conditions, provided that the breach of duty is attributable to GD- Medical GmbH is not only irrelevant. The same applies if the supplementary performance fails, is unreasonable for the customer or is delayed beyond a reasonable period for reasons for which GD-Medical GmbH is responsible.
- The customer’s right of withdrawal is excluded if he is unable to return the service received and this is not due to the fact that the return is impossible due to the nature of the service received, GD-Medical GmbH is responsible for this or the defect only showed during the processing or transformation of the products. The right of withdrawal is also excluded if GD-Medical GmbH is not responsible for the defect and if GD-Medical GmbH has to pay compensation for the value instead of giving it back.
- No claims for defects arise for defects resulting from natural wear and tear, improper handling, improperly executed or unauthorized modifications or repairs to the products by the customer or third parties. The same applies to defects that are attributable to the customer or that can be traced back to a technical cause other than the original defect.
- Customer claims for reimbursement of expenses instead of compensation for damages in lieu of performance are excluded unless a reasonable third party would have incurred the expenses. The customer’s claims for reimbursement of expenses are limited to the interest that he has in the fulfillment of the contract. Mandatory liability for product defects remains unaffected.
- In the case of notifications of defects, the customer may only withhold payments if the customer’s claims are undisputed or have been legally established, and to an extent that is in reasonable proportion to the defects that have occurred. If the notice of defects is unjustified, GD-Medical GmbH is entitled to demand compensation from the customer for the expenses incurred.
- The applicable laws, standards, approvals, certificates and special approvals valid on the day of the order apply, or all current requirements and other requirements that have legal effect on the placing on the market, sale and trade of the products offered. Applicable laws, standards, approvals, certificates and special approvals that came into force or were passed after the day of the order, or all current requirements and other requirements do not constitute a reason for withdrawing from the purchase contract and GD-Medical GmbH is not liable for any after Legal and/or factual changes arising from the day the order was placed, which could have a legal and/or factual impact on the sale/import of the products. The customers of GD-Medical GmbH are solely responsible for ensuring that the applicable and relevant laws, standards, approvals, certificates and special approvals, or all current requirements and other requirements for the purchase and further use of the products are observed or fulfilled . This applies, among other things, to rapid COVID-19 antigen tests and the requirements for their implementation (e.g. “to be carried out only by qualified personnel”). Customers confirm by purchasing these products that they belong to the appropriate category and/or only resell to eligible customers.
- GD-Medical GmbH is only liable for damage resulting from the breach of a guarantee or from direct injury to life, limb or health to the extent that such liability is legally mandatory. The same applies to intent and gross negligence. GD-Medical GmbH is only liable for slight negligence if essential obligations are violated which arise from the nature of the contract and which are of particular importance for the achievement of the purpose of the contract. In the event of breach of such obligations, delay and impossibility, the liability of GD-Medical GmbH is limited to such damage, the occurrence of which must typically be expected within the framework of this contract. Mandatory legal liability for product defects remains unaffected.
- The limitation period for customer claims for defects is 12 months, starting with the delivery of the products. It also applies to claims in tort based on a defect in the products. § 479 BGB remains unaffected. A statement by GD-Medical GmbH on a claim for defects asserted by the customer is not to be regarded as entering into negotiations about the claim or the circumstances on which the claim is based, provided that the claim for defects by GD-Medical GmbH is rejected in full.
- Insofar as the liability of GD-Medical GmbH is excluded or limited, this also applies to the personal liability of employees, employees, employees, representatives and vicarious agents of GD-Medical GmbH.
- Product liability
- The customer will not change the products, in particular he will not change or remove existing warnings about the dangers of improper use of the contractual products. In the event of a breach of this obligation, the customer of GD-Medical GmbH shall indemnify internally against product liability claims of third parties.
- If GD-Medical GmbH is prompted to issue a product recall or warning due to a product defect, the customer will cooperate to the best of his ability and support GD-Medical GmbH, in particular in determining the necessary customer data.</li >
- The customer will immediately inform GD-Medical GmbH in writing of any risks that become known to him when using the contractual products and possible product defects.
- Retention of title
-
- The delivered products remain the property of GD-Medical GmbH until full payment of all claims to which GD-Medical GmbH is entitled from the business relationship against the customer. In the case of a current account, the retention of title serves as security for the respective balance claim from GD-Medical GmbH. The customer is obliged to treat the products subject to retention of title with care for the duration of the retention of title. In particular, he is obliged to insure the products sufficiently at replacement value against fire, water and theft damage at the request of GD-Medical GmbH and at his own expense. The customer hereby assigns all claims for compensation from this insurance to GD-Medical GmbH. GD-Medical GmbH hereby accepts the assignment. Further claims of GD-Medical GmbH remain unaffected.
- The customer is only permitted to sell the products subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business, unless he is in default of payment. The customer is not entitled to pledge the products subject to retention of title, to assign them as security or to make other disposals that endanger the property of GD-Medical GmbH. In the event of attachments or other interventions by third parties, the customer must notify GD-Medical GmbH immediately in writing and provide all necessary information, inform the third party about the property rights of GD-Medical GmbH and the measures taken by GD-Medical GmbH for protection to participate in the products subject to retention of title. If the third party is not able to reimburse GD-Medical GmbH for the court and out-of-court costs of enforcing the property rights of GD-Medical GmbH, the customer is liable for the loss incurred by GD-Medical GmbH.
- The customer already assigns the claims from the resale of the products with all ancillary rights to GD-Medical GmbH, regardless of whether the products subject to retention of title are resold without or after processing. GD-Medical GmbH already accepts this assignment. If an assignment is not permitted, the customer hereby irrevocably instructs the third-party debtor to make any payments only to GD-Medical GmbH. The customer is revocably authorized to collect the claims assigned to GD-Medical GmbH in trust for GD-Medical GmbH in his own name. The amounts collected are to be paid immediately to GD-Medical GmbH. GD-Medical GmbH can revoke the customer’s direct debit authorization and the customer’s right to resell for good cause, in particular if the customer does not properly meet his payment obligations to GD-Medical GmbH, defaults on payments, stops making payments or if the opening of the insolvency proceedings are applied for over the assets of the customer. In the case of a global assignment by the customer, the claims assigned to GD-Medical GmbH must be expressly excluded.
- At the request of GD-Medical GmbH, the customer is obliged to inform the third-party debtors of the assignment and to provide GD-Medical GmbH with the information and documents required for collection.
- If the customer behaves in breach of contract, in particular in the event of default in payment, GD-Medical GmbH is entitled to take back the delivered products after withdrawing from the contract. After taking back the products, GD-Medical GmbH is authorized to recycle them. The proceeds from the sale, minus reasonable costs of sale, are to be offset against the customer’s liabilities.
- If the customer defaults on payment, GD-Medical GmbH is entitled, without prejudice to its other rights, to withdraw from the contract without prior notice. The customer must grant GD-Medical GmbH or its agents immediate access to the products subject to retention of title and hand them over. After appropriate notification in good time, GD-Medical GmbH can otherwise use the products subject to retention of title to satisfy their due claims against the customer.
- The processing or transformation of the products subject to retention of title by the customer is always carried out for GD-Medical GmbH. The customer’s expectant right to the products subject to retention of title continues with the processed or transformed item. If the products are processed or transformed with other items that do not belong to GD-Medical GmbH, GD-Medical GmbH acquires co-ownership of the new item in proportion to the value of the delivered products to the other processed items at the time of processing or modification. The same applies if the products are connected or mixed with other items that do not belong to GD-Medical GmbH in such a way that GD-Medical GmbH loses full ownership. The customer keeps the new items for GD-Medical GmbH. The same provisions as for the products subject to retention of title apply to the item resulting from processing or transformation as well as connection or mixing.
- The customer is obliged, as soon as he has stopped making payments, to send GD-Medical GmbH a list of the remaining goods subject to retention of title, even if they have been processed, and a list of the claims on third-party debtors together with the billing addresses.
- Amounts received from assigned claims are to be kept separately until they are transferred.
- In the case of payment by check or bill of exchange, the retention of title remains in place until the bill of exchange is redeemed by the customer.
- In the case of deliveries to other legal systems in which this retention of title regulation does not have the same security effect as in the Federal Republic of Germany, the customer hereby grants GD-Medical GmbH a corresponding security right. If further measures are required for this, the customer will do everything possible to grant GD-Medical GmbH such a security right immediately. The customer will participate in all measures that are necessary and beneficial for the effectiveness and enforceability of such security rights.
- Force Majeure
- If GD-Medical GmbH is prevented from fulfilling its contractual obligations, in particular from the delivery of the products, due to force majeure or without its own responsibility, it will be released from its obligation to perform for the duration of the obstacle and a reasonable start-up period, without customers to be obliged to pay compensation. The same applies if GD-Medical GmbH is unable to fulfill its obligations due to unforeseeable circumstances for which GD-Medical GmbH is not responsible, in particular labor disputes, official measures, energy shortages, pandemics, epidemics and natural disasters, delivery and production obstacles at producers, suppliers or those responsible for the transport or major operational disruptions, is made unreasonably difficult or temporarily impossible. This also applies if these circumstances occur with subcontractors or other vicarious agents of GD-Medical GmbH. GD-Medical GmbH is also not responsible for these circumstances if GD-Medical GmbH is already in default. Insofar as GD-Medical GmbH is released from the delivery obligation, GD-Medical GmbH will return any advance payments made by the customer. Any further claims of the customer are excluded.
- GD-Medical GmbH is entitled to withdraw from the contract if such an obstacle lasts for more than one month and the fulfillment of the contract is no longer of interest to GD-Medical GmbH as a result of the obstacle. At the request of the customer, GD-Medical GmbH will declare after the deadline whether it will make use of its right of withdrawal or whether it will deliver the products within a reasonable period.

Instead of the invalid or unenforceable provision, the valid or enforceable provision that comes closest to the purpose of the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be deemed to have been agreed.
