Terms of Service
Gianquest is operated by Sellectro UG (haftungsbeschränkt), Karl Marx Straße 1 (Oderturm), 15230 Frankfurt (Oder), Germany, registered with the Amtsgericht Frankfurt (Oder) under HRB 21282.
​
Section 1 Scope
1.1 These Terms of Service apply to all orders placed through the online shop www.gianquest.com as well as by email at Sellectro UG (haftungsbeschränkt), referred to below as Gianquest. Any deviating terms proposed by the customer will not be recognized unless Gianquest has expressly agreed to them in writing.
1.2 These terms apply exclusively to consumers within the meaning of Section 13 of the German Civil Code, meaning natural persons who enter into a transaction for purposes that are not predominantly related to their commercial or independent professional activity. Consumers are also referred to below as customers.
​
Section 2 Offer and Conclusion of Contract
2.1 The presentation of products in the online shop does not constitute a legally binding offer, but rather an invitation for the customer to place an order.
2.2 By submitting an order through the relevant button, the customer makes a binding offer to purchase. This offer remains valid for four weeks. Gianquest reserves the right to decline orders without giving reasons. The order confirmation sent by email does not yet constitute acceptance of the purchase offer, but merely confirms that the order has been received. A contract is only concluded once Gianquest separately confirms acceptance of the offer by email or ships the goods.
2.3 Gianquest reserves the right to continuously adapt and, where necessary, limit individual features of its service offering.
​
Section 3 Prices and Payment
3.1 The prices listed in the online shop are final prices and include the applicable statutory value added tax as well as all other price components. Delivery costs are shown separately.
3.2 Gianquest offers various payment methods. Which payment options are available can be viewed before completing the order process. Gianquest reserves the right not to offer certain payment methods, or to offer them only for specific orders.
3.3 All prices are generally shown in Euro.
​
Section 4 Delivery
4.1 Gianquest currently ships only to Germany. Orders are dispatched from either Germany or France, depending on product availability and warehouse location.
4.2 Two delivery options are available at checkout:
Free shipping, with an estimated delivery time of 4 to 5 business days.
Insured express shipping for a fee of 4.95 EUR, with an estimated delivery time of 2 to 3 business days.
4.3 Delivery times are estimates and may vary depending on carrier performance and external circumstances beyond our control. Gianquest works with reliable shipping partners to ensure orders arrive safely and on time.
​
Section 5 Retention of Title
The delivered goods remain the property of Gianquest until full payment of the purchase price has been received.

7.2 Claims for damages by the customer are excluded, unless otherwise specified below.

7.3 In the event of a breach of essential contractual obligations, Gianquest is only liable for the foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract, provided the breach was caused by simple negligence, unless the damage relates to injury to life, body, or health.
7.4 The above limitations of liability also apply in favor of the legal representatives and vicarious agents of Gianquest, insofar as claims are asserted directly against them.

​
Section 10 Promotions, Discounts, and Offers
From time to time we may run promotions that reduce the price of certain products. If a promotion is activated by a discount code, the customer must enter the code at checkout. Each promotion, discount, and offer has its own terms, which will be communicated at the time it is introduced. Unique, personal discount codes are non transferable and may not be shared publicly. Promotions, discount codes, and offers cannot be combined with one another. Offers have no cash value and cannot be applied to previous purchases. Gianquest reserves the right to change or end promotions at any time without prior notice.
​
Section 11 Final Provisions
11.1 Contracts between Gianquest and consumers are governed by German law, excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. For contracts with consumers, this choice of law applies only to the extent that it does not deprive the consumer of the protection granted by mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which the consumer has their habitual residence.
11.2 Should individual provisions of these Terms of Service be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected. The invalid provision shall be replaced by the applicable statutory regulation.
11.3 The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution, available at www.ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.
