his/her commercial activities nor his/her work as a self-employed person. The
following United Kingdom Terms and Conditions apply to all purchase contracts
between us, and you as a consumer concluded using our online shop.

cases, it is the version of the United Kingdom Terms and Conditions available
on the Websites, and hence the valid United Kingdom Terms and Conditions, at
the time of concluding the contract that is decisive. Deviating, contradictory
or supplementary agreements are not part of the contract unless we have
explicitly agreed to these in writing in advance.
