WARRANTY

 

The statutory warranty applies, unless otherwise specified.

LIABILITY PROVISIONS

 

BAUSCH is liable for intent or gross negligence. For slight negligence, BAUSCH is only liable if it culpably fails to fulfill an essential contractual obligation, whereas the liability is limited to the damage that is predictable and would typically occur.

 

The mere delivery of defective goods as such does not constitute a failure to fulfill essential contractual obligations.

 

Further liability - irrespective of the legal nature of the claim made - is excluded. This applies particularly to claims based on violations of contract or tort.

 

BAUSCH is not liable for consequential damages, particularly due to lost profits or intangible damages.

 

Claims for damages against BAUSCH are statute-barred one year after delivery of the goods, unless BAUSCH is charged with intent or gross negligence. The statute of limitations for claims based on tort remains unaffected by this.

 

Liability due to culpable harm to life and limb remains unaffected. This also applies to mandatory liability in accordance with the German Product Liability Act.

 

Insofar as the liability of BAUSCH is excluded or limited, this also applies in respect of the personal liability of employees, staff, fee-lancers, representatives and agents of BAUSCH.

Any further liability is excluded.

 

 

FINAL PROVISIONS

 

Applicable law for these general terms and conditions and all legal relationships is the law of the Federal Republic of Germany. The provisions of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (UN Sales Convention) shall not apply. Place of performance for deliveries and payments is Cologne, Germany. The exclusive place of jurisdiction for the buyer for all disputes resulting directly or indirectly from or in connection with the contractual relationship is Cologne, Germany. The same applies if the buyer does not have a place of jurisdiction in Germany or if its place of residence or habitual abode is unknown at the time of the legal action. BAUSCH reserves the right to take legal action against the buyer at his place of residence, his registered business address or where a branch office is located. The statutory place of jurisdiction for default proceedings remains unaffected. Should a provision in these general terms and conditions or a provision within the context of other agreements with the buyer be or become invalid, the validity of all other provisions in these general terms and conditions or other agreements is, in cases of doubt, unaffected.

 

Contract language is German or English.
