3. International payments
For customers outside Germany, we also offer secure and convenient payment methods that meet local requirements.
This includes:
- credit card payment (Visa, MasterCard, American Express)
- PayPal
Currency conversion:
Please note that international payments may incur exchange rate fees or bank charges. These fees are charged by your bank and are not our responsibility (§ 276 BGB).
4. Security in payments
Protecting your data is our top priority. Our website uses SSL encryption (Secure Socket Layer) to protect your sensitive payment data from unauthorized access. Credit card payments are processed via a certified payment service provider in accordance with PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards).
Payment processing is carried out by external providers such as [e.g. PayPal, Klarna]. We assume no liability for delays or errors caused by these third-party providers (§ 276 BGB).
Exchange rates and fees:
For international payments, your bank's exchange rates and fees apply. We accept no liability for discrepancies in the exchange rate or conversion fees (§ 276 BGB).
Legal basis:
We process your personal data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR exclusively to fulfill the purpose of the contract. Your payment information will only be used for the payment process and will not be passed on to third parties unless this is necessary to process the payment (e.g. credit institution, payment service provider).
5. Payment processing
Payments are usually processed in real time to process your order as quickly as possible. If you choose to pay in advance, your order will be processed after the payment has been received in our account. Depending on the bank, this can take up to [period, e.g. 3 working days].
If a payment fails, you will be notified immediately by email. In this case, please check your payment details and try again or choose an alternative payment method.
6. Tax exemptions for B2B customers
If you are a company within the European Union and have a valid VAT identification number, you can make tax-free purchases in accordance with the guidelines for intra-community deliveries (Section 4 No. 1b UStG).
Please enter your VAT ID number during the ordering process. After successful verification, the sales tax will be automatically removed. If you have any questions about tax-free processing, please contact us at [email address].
7. Refunds
In the event of a refund, the amount will be credited back to the original means of payment. Processing will take place immediately, but no later than within 14 days of acceptance of the return or cancellation (Section 355 Paragraph 3 of the German Civil Code).
If you have paid in advance, please let us know your bank details so that we can arrange the refund.

We do not charge any additional fees for the use of certain payment methods, according to Section 270a of the German Civil Code (BGB).
