General Terms & Conditions (T&Cs)

1. General

T&Cs as of: 06.06.2026

1.1.
These general terms and conditions („T&Cs") apply to orders, sales and deliveries of products („products") offered and sold via the website www.atelierlav.com .

1.2.
The language of the contract is German.

2. Scope of application

These T&Cs apply when the buyer is a consumer within the meaning of § 1 KSchG (Consumer Protection Act) („customer").

3. Amendments to the T&Cs

The provider reserves the right to amend these T&Cs. The T&Cs applicable at the time of conclusion of purchase shall apply to the sale of products.

4. Order, order confirmation, dispatch confirmation

4.1.
The ordering process takes place in the following steps:

  • selection of the desired goods
  • contact by email, telephone or in person
  • entry of personal data
  • selection and agreement of payment method and delivery method
  • renewed review and if necessary correction of the order
  • binding submission of the order by email or electronic message

4.2.
The products and prices shown on the website constitute an invitation to the customer to submit a binding offer to the provider for the purchase of the products („order"). The binding order is transmitted to the provider by written order confirmation from the customer. Illustrations and drawings of the goods are considered approximate values only, unless they are expressly stated as fixed values for the product. The customer accepts minor and objectively justified changes.

4.3.
The provider will promptly send the customer a confirmation to the email address provided by them, confirming that the order has been received by the provider („order confirmation"). This order confirmation does not constitute acceptance of the customer's order, but merely confirms receipt of the order by the provider.

4.4
Acceptance takes place at different times and in different forms depending on the chosen payment method: 

  • by sending an order confirmation by email, whereby the time of receipt of the order confirmation by the customer is decisive.
  • by dispatch of the ordered goods to the customer, whereby a transmitted dispatch confirmation is to be understood as an order confirmation. If no separate dispatch confirmation is sent to the customer, receipt of the goods by the customer is decisive.
  • by sending a payment request.

4.5.
The customer must ensure that all information provided by them in the course of an order, in particular the data necessary for dispatch, is accurate, correct and up to date. The customer must notify the provider of any changes to this information without delay.

5. Payment terms

5.1.
All prices stated are in euros including value added tax, but excluding shipping costs, unless otherwise stated. The shipping costs will be communicated to the customer before placing the order.

5.2.
Payment can be made via the following payment methods: invoice, bank transfer, cash.

5.3.
Shipping costs depend on the order and will be indicated by the provider before the order is placed and in the order confirmation.

6. Delivery

6.1.
The customer has access to the shipping methods stated in writing (email, electronic message).

6.2.
The delivery dates stated by the provider are based on the information provided by the commissioned delivery service. The delivery time for products to the customer is, unless a different delivery date is stated for the respective products, a maximum of 30 days from conclusion of contract.

6.3.
If failure to meet the delivery date is attributable to force majeure, industrial action or other events beyond the provider's sphere of influence, the delivery date shall be extended appropriately for the duration of the obstacle. The provider will inform the customer of the beginning and end of such circumstances as soon as possible, without the customer being able to derive any claims from failure to give such notice.

6.4.
If the customer is in default of acceptance of the products, the warranty period for the provider's performance begins to run.

6.5.
If the customer opts for self-collection of the goods, the provider will inform the customer by email or electronic message that the ordered goods are ready for collection. After receiving this email or electronic message, the customer can collect the goods from the provider's premises by arrangement with the provider. No shipping costs are incurred for self-collection. 

7. Retention of title

The provider retains ownership of the products until full payment of the purchase price and ancillary costs (in particular shipping costs) by the customer.

8. Default by the provider

If the provider is in default with its performance, the customer must first request the provider to perform within a reasonable grace period of two weeks. If the provider does not perform within this period, the customer may withdraw from the contract or continue to demand performance.

9. Warranty

9.1.
Atelier LAV provides warranty within the framework of the statutory provisions. For complaints please contact office@atelierlav.com.

9.2.
The provider may request that the customer, if it is feasible for them, send the defective products to the provider, whereby the provider bears the risk of dispatch as well as the costs of return. The customer is requested to report delivered goods with obvious transport damage to the delivery service and to inform the provider accordingly. If the customer fails to do so, this has no effect whatsoever on their warranty claims.

10. Liability and damages

The provider's liability for damages caused by slight negligence, with the exception of personal injury and principal contractual obligations, is excluded. Liability is also excluded for pure financial losses, loss of profit, damages to third parties, indirect damages and consequential damages due to defects. Liability-limiting or liability-excluding provisions of this clause 11 do not apply insofar as the provider is guilty of gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

11. General provisions

11.1.
Unless Austrian law is already applicable, the exclusive applicability of Austrian law is agreed, excluding the UN Sales Convention. 

11.2.
For consumers, this choice of law applies only to the extent that the protection granted is not withdrawn by mandatory provisions of the law of the state in which the consumer has their habitual residence.

11.3.
The customer may only offset claims against the provider's claims if the claims are legally related to the provider's claims, have been acknowledged or have been established by a court.

11.4.
The customer is obliged to notify the provider of any changes to their address. If the customer fails to notify the provider of an address change, a declaration sent by the provider to the last known address shall nonetheless be deemed to have been received by the customer.

Withdrawal notice – Right of cancellation / Right of withdrawal

The term „Rücktrittsrecht" (right of cancellation) commonly used in Austria corresponds to the term „Widerrufsrecht" (right of withdrawal) commonly used in Germany and used in the Consumer Rights Directive. We therefore use the equivalent pair of terms „right of withdrawal (right of cancellation)". In the withdrawal notice, only the term „right of withdrawal" is used. This is equivalent to the Austrian term „Rücktrittsrecht".


Non-existent right of withdrawal (right of cancellation)

There is no right of withdrawal (right of cancellation) for goods that are manufactured according to customer specifications or are clearly tailored to personal needs.

There is no right of withdrawal (right of cancellation) for goods that can perish quickly or whose expiry date would be exceeded quickly.

There is no right of withdrawal (right of cancellation) for newspapers, periodicals or illustrated magazines (with the exception of subscription contracts).

Lapsing right of withdrawal (right of cancellation)

For goods delivered in sealed packaging that are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene, the right of withdrawal (right of cancellation) lapses if the goods have been unsealed after delivery.

For audio or video recordings such as CDs, DVDs etc. as well as for computer software delivered in sealed packaging, the right of withdrawal (right of cancellation) lapses if the goods have been unsealed after delivery.

For goods that, after delivery, have become inseparably mixed with other goods due to their nature, the right of withdrawal (right of cancellation) lapses.

Right of withdrawal

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within fourteen days without giving any reason.

The withdrawal period is fourteen days from the day on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, took possession of the last goods.

To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform me

Verena Lassnig
Leopold Fessler-Gasse 28
8430 Leibnitz AUT
E-Mail: office@atelierlav.com 

by means of a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post or an email) of your decision to withdraw from this contract.

To meet the withdrawal deadline it is sufficient that you send the notification of the exercise of your right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

Consequences of withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse you all payments received from you, including delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs resulting from your choice of a type of delivery other than the least expensive standard delivery offered by us), without undue delay and no later than fourteen days from the day on which we received notification of your withdrawal from this contract. For this repayment we use the same means of payment that you used for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; under no circumstances will you be charged any fees for this repayment.

We will collect the goods.

You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods if this diminished value is attributable to handling that was not necessary for examining the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
