2) Offerings and functions of this website

This website is an online shop for the sale of goods.

Goods are defined here as physical objects.

Here, goods are presented to you, which can be added to an electronic shopping cart and then obligatorily ordered and paid for.

This website has a header and a footer menu.

In the header menu, the goods we sell are listed by category and can be accessed individually from there.

Each product is described on its own detail page with further information on its essential characteristics, scope of delivery, and total price. From there, it can be added to the electronic shopping cart.

Furthermore, the electronic shopping cart can be visited via the header menu as soon as you have added at least one item to it. From this shopping cart, the electronic ordering process can be initiated and completed.

In the footer menu, you will find links to our imprint with our contact information, as well as information on the legal basis of our online offering, shipping and payment options, and links to other helpful service pages.

Finally, you can select one of the available payment methods, enter the necessary payment data, and complete the order.

The binding submission of the order only takes place when the designated button on the final order page is pressed. It is labeled "Buy," "Buy now," "Order with obligation to pay," or another unambiguous wording.

Before pressing this order button, you can always navigate back to the previous steps using your browser's "Back" button and/or cancel the ordering process at any time.

If you have chosen to pay with an online payment method, you will be redirected from the final order page to the payment provider's system to make the payment there.

4) Legal requirements for accessibility

This website, as an online shop, is classified as a "service in electronic commerce" and is characterized by an electronic ordering and payment option.

It is subject to special legal requirements for accessibility.

In general, this website must provide functions and procedures that are tailored to the needs of people with disabilities and enable usability with digital aids.

The online shop functions of this website must therefore be:

Operability requires that the functions of the online shop can also be used by users with mobility or cognitive impairments.

Understandability requires that the information and functions of the online shop are logically structured, easily recognizable, and unambiguously labeled.

Finally, robustness demands that the content and functions of the online shop can be used reliably and without restrictions, even if users employ digital aids.

If products subject to their own accessibility requirements are for sale in the online shop, information on accessible use must be provided for such products, where available.

5) Available aids for accessible use

This website meets accessibility requirements through the following measures:

  • Alt-texts for images: Images in the online shop are equipped with alternative texts that provide a brief description of the image and can be processed by screen readers.
