1. Scope of application and applicable law

These General Terms and Conditions (GTCs) apply to all orders placed between Wind & Vibes GmbH (hereinafter referred to as "WV") and the customer via the online store of the registered trademark Wind & Vibes (windandvibes.com).

Deviating terms and conditions shall not apply unless WV has expressly agreed to them in writing.

2 Conclusion of contract


The presentation of WIND & VIBES products in the online store does not constitute a legally binding offer.

Only by clicking on the "Buy now" button do you place a binding order for the goods in the shopping cart.


The order confirmation takes place immediately after sending the order by an automated e-mail, which does not constitute a legally binding confirmation of the purchase contract. It is important to enter your actual e-mail address when placing your order so that you receive the e-mail to check the items you have ordered. The purchase contract is only concluded when we expressly accept your offer or send you the ordered goods.

4. Payment and invoice
Our online store offers payment options via PayPal, credit card, SOFORTÜberweisung and prepayment.

When paying by PayPal, you need to register with the online provider PayPal beforehand. With the help of your access data you legitimize yourself and can thus confirm the payment order to us. You will receive further information during the ordering process.

Payment by credit card is made upon completion of the order.

Payment by SOFORTÜberweisung is made via the secure payment portal of SOFORT GmbH, which is not accessible to merchants. Please note that with this payment method there may be a delay of 2-3 working days until we receive confirmation of the payment. If you as the buyer have an account that is activated for the PIN/TAN procedure, this payment method is generally available to you.

Payment in advance is made by bank transfer to our company bank account. The necessary information will be sent with the order confirmation. A period of 14 days is available for the bank transfer. If no payment is received within this period, the order will be canceled.

The invoice will be sent to you as an attachment to the order confirmation.

For payments on account, we expressly point out that in the event of late payment by the customer, we are entitled to forward the transaction to a debt collection service provider for the purpose of debt collection. Furthermore, in this case the customer shall also bear the additional costs associated with the delay.

5. Prices and shipping costs

The prices valid at the time of ordering apply.
All prices displayed in our online store are gross prices and include the statutory VAT and do not include shipping costs.


A list of flat-rate shipping costs can be found on the "Shipping and delivery" page in the footer of the website.
WV reserves the right to change the prices published in the online store.

6. Delivery conditions

In principle, we expect to process incoming orders within 24 hours on working days and then ship them with DHL. In the case of promotions, the delivery time may be delayed.
The duration of our standard shipping depends on the delivery area. This information can be found on the "Shipping and delivery" page in the footer of this website.
If WV is unable to deliver the ordered goods through no fault of its own because WV's supplier fails to meet its contractual obligations, WV shall be entitled to withdraw from the contract with the customer. In this case, the customer shall be informed immediately that the ordered product is not available. The statutory claims of the customer shall remain unaffected.

7. Retention of title
The goods remain the property of Wind & Vibes GmbH until full payment has been made.

8. Warranty
Unless expressly agreed otherwise, the statutory warranty provisions shall apply.
The statutory limitation period for warranty claims shall apply from the date of purchase.

Excluded from the warranty are damages in the following cases:
Defect or damage caused by improper use or incorrect care
Defect or damage caused by fire, water or natural disasters and earthquakes
Visual changes due to natural wear and tear


9. redemption of promotional vouchers & promotions

Multiple vouchers cannot be combined for one purchase. Vouchers and discounts that are issued free of charge by WV as part of promotions with a specific validity period and that cannot be purchased by the customer (hereinafter "promotional vouchers") can only be redeemed in the seller's online store (www.windandvibes.com) and only during the specified period. Individual products may be excluded from promotional vouchers if a corresponding restriction results from the content of the promotional voucher. Reduced products and special editions are excluded from promotional vouchers, unless otherwise stated in the content of the promotional voucher. Promotional vouchers can only be redeemed before the order process is completed. Subsequent offsetting is not possible.

In the case of absolute promotional vouchers (value in EUR), the value of the goods must be at least equal to the amount of the promotional voucher. Any remaining credit will not be refunded by the seller. If the value of the promotional voucher is not sufficient to cover the order, one of the other payment methods offered by the seller can be selected to settle the difference. The credit balance of a promotional voucher is neither paid out in cash nor does it bear interest. The promotional voucher will not be refunded if the customer returns the goods paid for in full or in part with the promotional voucher within the scope of his statutory right of withdrawal. Promotions and discounts cannot be combined with each other.

All orders containing a reduced set (more than one item) are subject to the following conditions:

If individual items of a reduced set are returned, the set price no longer applies to them. In this case, the sum of the individual item prices of the non-returned items must be paid. The set prices are discounted prices which only apply as long as all items in the set are purchased.

10. liability for defects


Unless otherwise specified below, WV's liability for damages shall be limited to gross negligence and willful misconduct, irrespective of the type of breach of duty and including tortious acts.
In the event of a breach of material contractual obligations, we shall be liable for any negligence. However, this liability shall be limited to the amount of damage typically foreseeable for the type of order at the time the contract was concluded.
Any limitations of liability shall not apply in the event of injury to life, limb or health, in the case of warranty promises where agreed and in cases within the scope of application of the Product Liability Act.
Insofar as WV's liability is excluded or limited, this shall also apply to the personal liability of employees, representatives and vicarious agents.
Within the scope of subsequent performance, WV shall exclusively opt for replacement delivery.

11. Product descriptions


The available product photographs and information texts represent the product as accurately as possible.
