1. Scope of application
1.1 The business relationship between JD Europe Components GmbH (hereinafter referred to as "JD Europe") and the customer (hereinafter referred to as "Customer") shall be governed exclusively by the following General Terms and Conditions (GTC). JD Europe does not recognize any terms and conditions of the Customer that conflict with or deviate from these GTC unless JD Europe has expressly agreed to their validity. These GTC shall also apply if JD Europe carries out the delivery to the customer without reservation in the knowledge of conflicting GTC.
1.2 An entrepreneur within the meaning of these GTC is any natural or legal person or partnership with legal capacity who or which, when entering into a legal transaction, acts in exercise of his or its trade, business or profession. Insofar as these GTC refer to entrepreneurs, the provision also applies to legal entities under public law and special funds under public law.
1.3 A consumer within the meaning of these GTC is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly outside their trade, business or profession.
2. Offer
2.1 Offers and prices are subject to change, we reserve the right to sell goods to others.
2.2 All prices are quoted in EURO without VAT ex warehouse of JD Europe including packaging, unless otherwise communicated or listed separately in the cost estimate (CT). Shipping and insurance costs are charged separately. The calculation is based on a flat-rate shipping fee, depending on the size and content of the package. Adjusted flat rates apply for deliveries to other EU countries. Deliveries abroad are requested individually and the costs are passed on to the customer.
2.3 Texts and illustrations in any form, e.g. in catalogs, the online store or in e-mails, are only approximate and we expressly reserve the right to make changes in design and errors, including printing errors. The Buyer shall bear the risk of transmission errors when submitting offers or placing orders.
2.4 We reserve the right to supply items that have the same possible use and comparable properties if the ordered item is not available from stock.
3. Orders, services and conclusion of contract
3.1 The Customer has two options for concluding a binding purchase agreement:
3.1.1 The Customer may request a binding offer from JD Europe by telephone or in writing. The customer will then receive the binding offer with all relevant information for the conclusion of the contract by e-mail, which must also be confirmed by the customer by e-mail in order to conclude a binding contract.
3.1.2 The Customer may also submit a binding offer to conclude a contract by using JD Europe's online store at www.jd-europe.de. JD Europe may accept the Customer's offer contained in the order by sending an order confirmation to the Customer by e-mail.
3.2 The Customer's contractual partner is:
JD Europe Components GmbH
Managing Director: Ms. Pi-Yu Lin
Authorized signatory: Alexander Klinger
Salinenstr. 52
61231 Bad Nauheim
Phone: +49 (0) 6032 / 92671 30
Fax: +49 (0) 6032 / 92671 59
E-mail: service@jd-eur.com
3.3 The presentation of the goods in the online store does not constitute a legally binding contractual offer by JD Europe, but is only a non-binding invitation to the customer to order goods.
3.4 If the customer orders via the webshop, the ordering process takes place in the following steps:
- Logging in to the dealer area (e-mail / dealer number and password)
- Selection of the desired brand (TranzX, Citybug, etc.)
- Open the online shop
- Select the desired product and quantity
- Check the selection in the shopping cart
- Confirm the desired goods by clicking on the "Order" button
- Select the desired payment method
- Re-check the selected goods, address and other data
- Binding submission of the order by clicking on the "Buy now" button
The customer can cancel the order process at any time by pressing the back button on the Internet browser or by closing the Internet browser. The order is only binding once "Buy now" has been clicked. We confirm receipt of the order immediately by an automatically generated e-mail ("order confirmation"). With this, JD Europe accepts the customer's offer.
3.5 The text of the contract is stored with JD Europe. The order data is sent to the contract customer by e-mail. The GTC can be viewed online at any time at www.jd-europe.de.
3.6 In the customer area of JD Europe's website, after login, all current and past orders can be viewed at any time under My Account – My Orders.
3.7 Services, such as a remote desktop connection from JD Europe to a customer and repairs carried out at JD Europe for the customer, are subject to a charge unless the repairs or other services are necessary to remedy a defect in accordance with applicable warranty law. In the case of a remote desktop connection, the customer will be informed in advance of the actual costs incurred and agrees to these in writing or by starting the service. In the case of repairs, a cost estimate will be drawn up after a detailed diagnosis, which will also list the repair costs. If the customer rejects the cost estimate, a flat-rate fee (depending on the scope) will still be charged for the inspection.
The duration of the repair will be communicated to the customer by an employee before the item to be repaired is delivered to JD Europe. The repair time varies from case to case and is estimated differently depending on the workload and timing (seasonal business) of the repair. Repair times communicated are not binding.
4. Terms of payment and invoice
4.1 The customer has the option of paying by direct debit, PayPal, prepayment, credit card or by bank-transfer on account. JD Europe reserves the right to insist on advance payment or partial payment for new customers or large orders.
4.2 If prepayment has been selected as a payment method or has been requested by JD Europe as in section 4.1 and accepted by the customer, the customer undertakes to make the payment immediately after conclusion of the contract.
4.3 If purchase on account has been selected, the invoice amount must be paid to the account specified on the invoice within 10 days of the invoice date at the latest, unless otherwise agreed.
4.4 Invoices shall be sent exclusively by e-mail.
4.5 Payments to third parties (e.g. delivery services, employees, drivers or representatives) shall only have a debt-discharging effect if they can produce a valid authorization to collect.
4.6 In the event of default of payment, suspension of payment or bankruptcy of the customer, the total claim is due immediately. The customer shall be in default if the set payment deadline is exceeded. The customer will receive a reminder from JD Europe as soon as the customer is in default. JD Europe reserves the right to charge a reminder fee of up to €10.00 per reminder. After the third reminder has expired, JD Europe will hand over the outstanding debt to a debt collection agency. The resulting additional costs will be charged to the customer in default.
5. Delivery and delivery times
5.1 Unless otherwise communicated or clearly stated in the product description, all items offered by JD Europe are ready for immediate shipment. Shipment takes place at the latest within 5 working days (Monday - Friday) after dispatch of the order confirmation. If payment is made in advance, the delivery period begins on the day after receipt of payment. Delivery times are not binding.
5. 2 In cases of force majeure and other unforeseeable and unavoidable damaging events for which JD Europe is not responsible (in particular operational disruptions, transport delays, lawful lockouts, power failures, labor disputes, unrest, difficulties in procuring materials or energy, shortage of labor, energy or raw materials, difficulties in obtaining necessary official permits, official measures or missing, incorrect or untimely delivery by suppliers, pandemic or epidemic), the delivery period shall be extended appropriately by the duration of the disruption.
6. Transfer of risk
6.1 The risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration during transportation shall only be borne by JD Europe if the customer is a consumer.
6.2 In the case of orders placed by entrepreneurs, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods during transportation shall pass to the customer as soon as the goods are delivered to the person or institution designated to carry out the shipment. The provisions of § 447 BGB (sale by dispatch) shall also apply to orders placed by entrepreneurs if the shipment is made using JD Europe's means of transportation or from a place other than the place of performance or if JD Europe bears the freight costs.
7. Retention of title
7.1 The delivered goods remain the property of JD Europe until the purchase price has been piad in full, including shipping costs and any cash on delivery fees. Until all claims to which JD Europe is entitled against the customer have been fulfilled, pledging or transfer of security of the goods concerned is prohibited. Until then, pledging or assigning claims without the express consent of JD Europe is also not permitted. The customer is obliged to immediately notify JD Europe of any access by third parties to the goods delivered under retention of title by sending an affidavit and a seizure protocol confirming the identity of the seized item with the goods in question.
7.2 In the event of culpable breach of important contractual obligations by the customer, in particular default in payment, JD Europe shall be entitled, if the conditions for withdrawal from the contract are met, to take back the goods and, if necessary, to enter the customer's premises for this purpose. The taking back of the goods concerned by JD Europe shall constitute a withdrawal from the contract.
7.3 The customer shall only be entitled to resell and use the goods concerned in the ordinary course of business. The customer shall be obliged to protect the rights of JD Europe vis-à-vis the third-party purchaser in every way necessary. If the goods concerned are sold by the customer, the customer hereby assigns to JD Europe the claims arising from the resale in the amount of the value of the goods concerned, including all ancillary rights and ranking before the rest. The claims assigned by the customer to JD Europe shall also relate to the recognized balance and, in the event of insolvency of the third party, to the then existing causal balance. The customer is revocably authorized to collect the claims. This shall not affect JD Europe's right to collect the claims itself. If JD Europe decides to collect the receivables itself, the Customer shall inform the third-party debtors of the assignment, request them to make payments only to JD Europe, refrain from any collection action and provide JD Europe with a list of the resold goods concerned.
8. Warranty
8.1 The sales warranty for customers is 2 years from delivery of the goods. If a defect is recognizable in the delivered goods, this must be reported to JD Europe immediately after delivery by telephone or in writing. If the JD Europe service team requests a photo to clarify the situation, this must be sent to service@jd-eur.com immediately. JD Europe will then decide whether a replacement delivery of defect-free goods or a rectification of defects will be carried out.
8.2 It is assumed that the installation of parts or components is carried out by a trained specialist with the necessary skill, care and expertise. Should a defect occur despite professional installation, this must also be reported to JD Europe immediately after discovery.
8.3 If the customer carries out unauthorized repairs to the defective goods or opens or modifies them, JD Europe shall be released from the warranty obligation for any resulting defects.
9. Liability
9.1 Claims of the customer for damages are excluded. Excluded from this are claims for damages by the customer arising from injury to life, limb or health or from the breach of essential contractual obligations (cardinal obligations) as well as liability for other damages based on an intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty by JD Europe, its legal representatives or vicarious agents. Material contractual obligations are those whose fulfillment is necessary to achieve the objective of the contract.
9.2 In the event of a breach of material contractual obligations, JD Europe shall only be liable for the foreseeable damage typical for the contract if this was caused by simple negligence, unless the customer's claims for damages are based on injury to life, limb or health.
9.3 The restrictions of paragraphs 1 and 2 shall also apply in favor of the legal representatives and vicarious agents of JD Europe if claims are asserted directly against them.
9.4 The limitations of liability resulting from paragraphs 1 and 2 shall not apply if JD Europe has fraudulently concealed the defect or has assumed a guarantee for the quality of the item. The same shall apply if JD Europe and the customer have reached an agreement on the quality of the item. The provisions of the Product Liability Act shall remain unaffected.
10. Right of revocation
10.1 Consumers have a right of withdrawal, whereby a consumer is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that cannot be attributed primarily to their commercial or independent professional activity.
10.2 Right of withdrawal for consumers
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within fourteen days without giving any reason.
You have the right to cancel this contract within fourteen days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period is fourteen days from the day of the conclusion of the contract (service) or on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, have taken possession of the last goods (in case of purchase). To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must notify us, the
JD Europe Components GmbH
Salinenstr. 52
61231 Bad Nauheim
Telephone: +49 (0) 6032 / 92671 30
Fax: +49 (0) 6032 / 92671 59
E-Mail: service@jd-eur.com
by means of a clear statement (e.g. a mailed letter, fax or e-mail, telephone call) of your decision to revoke this contract. You can use the attached sample revocation form, which is not mandatory. In order to comply with the revocation period, it is sufficient to send the notification of the exercise of the right of revocation before the end of the revocation period.
Consequences of revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall reimburse you for all payments we have received from you, including delivery charges (other than any additional charges arising from your choice ofa different method of delivery to the cheapest standard delivery offered by us), immediately and no later than fourteen days from the date on which we receive notice of your revocation of this contract. We will only use bank transfers for this refund, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; in no case will you be charged for this refund. We may refuse to refund until we have received the goods back or until you have provided proof that you have sent the goods back, whichever is earlier. You must send back or hand over the goods, without delay and in any case within fourteen days at the latest from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract, to
JD Europe Components GmbH
Salinenstr. 52
61231 Bad Nauheim
to return or hand over the goods. The deadline is met if you send the goods before the expiry of the period of fourteen days. You shall bear the direct costs of returning the goods in the amount of up to 600 EUR. You will only have to pay for any loss in value of the goods if this loss in value is due to handling of the goods that is not necessary for testing the condition, properties and functioning of the goods. If you have requested that the services begin during the withdrawal period, you must pay us a reasonable amount corresponding to the proportion of the services already provided up to the time you notify us of the exercise of the right of withdrawal with regard to this contract compared to the total scope of the services provided for in the contract. The right of withdrawal in distance selling does not apply: for the delivery of goods that are not prefabricated and for the manufacture of which an individual selection or determination by the consumer is decisive or which are clearly tailored to the personal needs of the consumer. The right of withdrawal shall expire prematurely in the case of a contract for the delivery of digital content that is not on a physical data carrier if we have only begun executing the contract after you have given your express consent to this and at the same time confirmed your knowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal upon commencement of the execution of the contract (cf. Section 356 (5) BGB). We point out that we can make the conclusion of the contract dependent on the aforementioned consent and confirmation.

10.3 No right of revocation for entrepreneurs
Goods sold to entrepreneurs shall not be taken back. In exceptional cases, return shipments may be accepted after consultation with the JD Europe service team and a written agreement. The prerequisite for this is that the goods are in their original condition and unused (no scratches, installation marks, etc.), or if the goods have an outer packaging, the goods are still sealed and the original packaging is undamaged. The goods are returned at the expense and risk of the buyer. For returns, JD Europe reserves the right to charge a handling fee of 10% of the invoice amount. If the goods were purchased more than 2 months ago, a processing fee of up to 20% may be charged. The processing fee will be offset directly against the credit note. A credit note will only be issued when the goods have been inspected as "OK" upon arrival at JD Europe’s premises. Should the inspection reveal that the goods have already been used or cannot be sold due to damage, the goods will be returned at the expense of the entrepreneur and an invoice will be issued for the work involved. Goods that were procured or adapted on special request are generally excluded from the right of revocation for entrepreneurs.

This data is processed exclusively in order to fulfill the contractual obligations towards the customer (for customers who are consumers, Art. 6(1) b) GDPR applies, for other market participants Art. 6(1) f) GDPR applies as the legal basis) or to fulfill legal obligations, e.g. mandatory commercial or tax retention obligations (Art. 6(1) c) GDPR). Data will not be passed on to third parties without the customer's consent, unless this is necessary for the performance of the contract or to fulfill legal obligations to provide information, e.g. to courts or authorities.
11.2 To exercise the rights of a person affected by the application of these GTC regarding the handling of their personal data, please refer to Chapter III of the GDPR and the privacy policy on the JD Europe website.

The statutory provisions restricting the choice of law and the applicability of mandatory provisions, in particular those of the state in which the Customer as a consumer has his/her habitual residence, remain unaffected.
12.2 If the Customer is a merchant, a public-law legal entity or a public-law special fund, the place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from contractual relationships between the parties is the domicile of JD Europe in Bad Nauheim.
