For more details, please review our Returns Policy in our FAQ page here.
Section 9 – Delivery
We partner with Easyship Fulfillment Services Ltd (https://www.easyship.com/legal/terms/global) to provide a range of shipping options available to your country. These shipping options are displayed at point of checkout.
We ship goods no later than 1-5 working days after conclusion of the contract. In the case of payment in advance, delivery times shall extend from the date of receipt of payment in our account. Goods shipped from outside the Federal Republic of Germany and within Europe which are available are normally delivered within 7-14 working days. For shipments to non-European countries, the delivery time depends on the type of shipping (airmail / overland / maritime) and the location of the recipient. Any information on shipping, transit times or delivery are merely for the information of the buyer, are not binding and do not constitute a contractual assurance.
If you order a product that was available in accordance with the article description, and we have not been supplied with this product from our suppliers with no fault of our own, we may withdraw from the contract. In this case, we will inform you immediately and, if applicable, suggest an alternative similar product. If no comparable product is available, or you do not want delivery of a comparable product, we will refund any amounts which have already been paid without delay. The right to withdraw from the contract shall also apply in this case.
We are entitled to make partial shipments and/or services, as far as this does not affect any conflict of interests unreasonably. Should a partial delivery become necessary, we shall, of course, accept the additional shipping costs. No further costs shall arise for you.
The delivery time is extended appropriately if the delivery is affected by a force majeure situation. Force majeure shall be deemed to be, for example, subsequent material procurement difficulties, riot, strike, lockout, malfunction, fire, natural disasters, transportation disruptions, change to the statutory provisions, official measures or regulations or the occurrence of other unforeseeable events, which are beyond our control and which - taking an objective point of view – have not been caused by any culpable conduct on our part. Should one of the above described cases arise, we shall inform you immediately. If this hindrance to performance should last longer than four weeks, you are entitled to withdraw from the contract. In this case, further claims, in particular for damages, do not exist. This does not apply as far as in cases of wilful intent or gross negligence, in case of assurances, or due to breach of essential contractual obligations caused by simple negligence or if compulsory liability applies in foreseeable damage typical for contracts for legal reasons, due to mandatory liability.
If the goods are delivered with obvious damage caused during delivery, please report the defect to the carrier and notify us without delay. Failure to make a complaint or to make contact does not in any way affect your legal rights or the enforcement of such rights, notably your warranty rights. However, in doing so you help us to assert our own claims against the carrier or transport insurer.
Section 10 – Optional Tools
We may provide you with access to third-party tools over which we neither monitor nor have any control nor input.
You acknowledge and agree that we provide access to such tools ”as is” and “as available” without any warranties, representations or conditions of any kind and without any endorsement. We shall have no liability whatsoever arising from or relating to your use of optional third-party tools.
Any use by you of optional tools offered through the site is entirely at your own risk and discretion and you should ensure that you are familiar with and approve of the terms on which tools are provided by the relevant third-party provider(s).
We may also, in the future, offer new services and/or features through the website (including, the release of new tools and resources). Such new features and/or services shall also be subject to these Terms of Service.
Section 11 – Third Party Links
Certain content, products and services available via our Service may include materials from third-parties.
Third-party links on this site may direct you to third-party websites that are not affiliated with us. We are not responsible for examining or evaluating the content or accuracy and we do not warrant and will not have any liability or responsibility for any third-party materials or websites, or for any other materials, products, or services of third-parties.
We are not liable for any harm or damages related to the purchase or use of goods, services, resources, content, or any other transactions made in connection with any third-party websites. Please review carefully the third-party's policies and practices and make sure you understand them before you engage in any transaction. Complaints, claims, concerns, or questions regarding third-party products should be directed to the third-party.
Section 12 – User Comments, Feedback, and Other Submissions
If, at our request, you send certain specific submissions (for example contest entries) or without a request from us you send creative ideas, suggestions, proposals, plans, or other materials, whether online, by email, by postal mail, or otherwise (collectively, 'comments'), you agree that we may, at any time, without restriction, edit, copy, publish, distribute, translate and otherwise use in any medium any comments that you forward to us. We are and shall be under no obligation (1) to maintain any comments in confidence; (2) to pay compensation for any comments; or (3) to respond to any comments.
We may, but have no obligation to, monitor, edit or remove content that we determine in our sole discretion are unlawful, offensive, threatening, libelous, defamatory, pornographic, obscene or otherwise objectionable or violates any party’s intellectual property or these Terms of Service.
You agree that your comments will not violate any right of any third-party, including copyright, trademark, privacy, personality or other personal or proprietary right. You further agree that your comments will not contain libelous or otherwise unlawful, abusive or obscene material, or contain any computer virus or other malware that could in any way affect the operation of the Service or any related website. You may not use a false e‑mail address, pretend to be someone other than yourself, or otherwise mislead us or third-parties as to the origin of any comments.

Section 16 – Disclaimer or Warranties; Limitation of Liability
Warranty shall be dependent upon the statutory provisions. In case of a complaint, we ask for proof of the purchase date by means of the invoice and sending the article complained about together with a copy of the invoice to dbteo UG, Durchsholz 13, 42897, Remscheid, Germany. Normal wear and tear of the goods do not justify a warranty claim. We are committed to respond to any complaint immediately, but no later than within 14 days of its submission.
We do not guarantee, represent or warrant that your use of our service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free.
We do not warrant that the results that may be obtained from the use of the service will be accurate or reliable.

Because some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, in such states or jurisdictions, our liability shall be limited to the extent permitted by law.
Section 17 – Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless dbteo UG and our parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, officers, directors, agents, contractors, licensors, service providers, subcontractors, suppliers, interns and employees, harmless from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorney fees, made by any third-party due to or arising out of your breach of these Terms of Service or the documents they incorporate by reference, or your violation of any law or the rights of a third-party.
Section 18 – Severability
In the event that any provision of these Terms of Service is determined to be unlawful, void or unenforceable, such provision shall nonetheless be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and the unenforceable portion shall be deemed to be severed from these Terms of Service, such determination shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any other remaining provisions.
