General Terms and Conditions (GTC)
of Tape-Team GmbH
Last update: January 2026.
1. Scope of Application
(1) These General Terms and Conditions apply exclusively to contracts concluded with entrepreneurs within the meaning of Section 14 of the German Civil Code (BGB), legal entities under public law, or special funds under public law (hereinafter referred to as the “Customer”).
(2) Conflicting, deviating or supplementary general terms and conditions of the Customer shall not become part of the contract, even if we do not expressly object to their validity. They shall only apply if we have expressly agreed to them in writing.
(3) Contracts with consumers within the meaning of Section 13 BGB are not concluded via this website. Any sales to consumers are carried out exclusively via external sales platforms and are subject to the respective terms and conditions applicable there.
2. Conclusion of Contract
(1) Our offers are non-binding and subject to change unless expressly designated as binding.
(2) A contract shall only be concluded upon our written order confirmation. The commencement of performance by us shall be deemed equivalent to written order confirmation.
(3) Information on characteristics, dimensions, weights or technical data shall not constitute guaranteed properties unless expressly agreed otherwise.
(4) Customary and technically unavoidable deviations shall be permitted, provided they are reasonable for the Customer and do not materially impair the contractual purpose.
3. Prices and Payment Terms
(1) All prices are stated in euros plus the applicable statutory value-added tax.
(2) Unless otherwise agreed in writing, invoices are payable net within 30 days from the invoice date without deduction.
(3) In the event of default in payment, we shall be entitled to charge default interest at the statutory rate pursuant to Section 288 (2) BGB as well as the statutory lump-sum compensation for default pursuant to Section 288 (5) BGB. The right to claim further damages caused by default remains unaffected.
(4) The Customer shall only be entitled to offset or assert a right of retention insofar as the counterclaims are undisputed or have been legally established by a final court judgment.
4. Delivery, Delivery Periods, Partial Deliveries
(1) Delivery periods and dates shall be deemed approximate only, unless expressly confirmed in writing as binding.
(2) Partial deliveries are permissible, provided they are reasonable for the Customer, taking into account the Customer’s interests.
(3) Events of force majeure or other circumstances beyond our control (e.g. material shortages, operational disruptions, strikes, official measures) shall reasonably extend agreed delivery periods. Claims for damages arising therefrom are excluded.
5. Transfer of Risk
(1) The risk of accidental loss or accidental deterioration of the goods shall pass to the Customer upon handover of the goods to the carrier, freight forwarder or any other third party designated to perform the shipment.
(2) This shall also apply if we bear the shipping costs or if partial deliveries are made.
6. Customer-Specific Products
(1) Goods manufactured, converted, cut, assembled or otherwise individualized according to the Customer’s specifications, drawings, dimensions or other specific requirements shall be deemed customer-specific products.
(2) Customer-specific products are excluded from return, exchange or any other reversal of the contract.
(3) The Customer shall bear sole responsibility for the accuracy, completeness and technical feasibility of the specifications provided. We shall only be obliged to review such specifications if this has been expressly agreed.
(4) Any changes requested after order confirmation may result in additional costs and changes to delivery dates and shall require our written consent.
7. Retention of Title
(1) The delivered goods shall remain our property until all claims arising from the ongoing business relationship have been fully settled.
(2) The Customer shall be entitled to process or resell the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business. The Customer hereby assigns to us by way of security any claims arising from such resale against third parties.
(3) The Customer shall be obliged to handle the goods subject to retention of title with due care and to insure them adequately against customary risks at its own expense.
8. Transport Damage
(1) Obvious transport damage should be reported to the carrier immediately upon delivery and notified to us without delay.
(2) Failure to report such damage shall not affect statutory warranty rights but shall facilitate the assertion of our own claims against the carrier or transport insurer.
9. Liability
(1) We shall be liable without limitation in cases of intent or gross negligence as well as for injury to life, body or health.
(2) In cases of slight negligence involving the breach of essential contractual obligations, our liability shall be limited to the foreseeable, contract-typical damage. Essential contractual obligations are those obligations whose fulfillment is necessary for the proper execution of the contract and on whose compliance the Customer regularly relies.
(3) Any further liability is excluded. Liability under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz) remains unaffected.
10. Final Provisions
(1) Amendments or supplements to these General Terms and Conditions must be made in text form (Section 126b BGB).
(2) The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply, excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).
(3) Place of performance and jurisdiction for all disputes shall be, insofar as legally permissible, the registered office of Tape-Team GmbH in Unterschleißheim, Germany.
(4) Should any provision of these General Terms and Conditions be or become wholly or partially invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected.
(5) In case of discrepancies between the German and the English version, the German version shall prevail.
