Haftungsausschluss (Liability Disclaimer)

Elitefy (Unifame) Haftungsausschluss (Liability Disclaimer)

1. Scope of Business Activity

We operate a commercial online retail business offering consumer goods via our website and selected online marketplaces.

Our product range includes, but is not limited to:

  • Electronic accessories and devices
  • Household products
  • House and garden items

All products are offered exclusively for lawful use unless explicitly stated otherwise.


2. Responsibility for Own Content

As a service provider pursuant to § 7 para. 1 DDG, we are responsible for our own content on these pages under general German law.

According to §§ 8–10 DDG, we are not obligated to monitor transmitted or stored third-party information or to investigate circumstances that indicate illegal activity.

Liability in this regard arises only from the time of knowledge of a specific infringement. Upon becoming aware of such violations, we will remove the affected content without undue delay.


3. External Links

Our website may contain links to external third-party websites. We have no influence over their content and therefore assume no responsibility for such external content.

The respective provider or operator of the linked pages is solely responsible for their content.

At the time of linking, no unlawful content was recognizable. Permanent monitoring of linked content is not reasonable without concrete evidence of a violation. Upon notification of violations, such links will be removed immediately.


4. Product Compliance and Regulatory Standards

All products are marketed in accordance with applicable German and European Union regulations.

Where required by law, products comply with applicable safety, labeling, and consumer protection standards. Any mandatory product-specific information (e.g., electrical safety, usage restrictions) is provided within the respective product description.

Nothing in this disclaimer restricts mandatory statutory consumer rights.


5. Statutory Warranty (Gewährleistung)

The statutory warranty rights pursuant to §§ 434 et seq. BGB apply.

For consumers, the limitation period for defect claims is generally two years from delivery of the goods.

For entrepreneurs, the limitation period for defect claims is one year from transfer of risk, unless mandatory statutory provisions provide otherwise.

Normal wear and tear does not constitute a defect.


6. Liability for Damages

We are liable without limitation for damages resulting from:

  • Intent or gross negligence
  • Injury to life, body, or health
  • Fraudulent concealment of defects
  • Assumption of a guarantee
  • Mandatory statutory liability, including under the Produkthaftungsgesetz

In cases of slight negligence, we are liable only for the breach of essential contractual obligations (cardinal obligations). In such cases, liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for the contract.

Any further liability for damages is excluded to the extent permitted by law.


7. Exclusion of Liability for Improper Use

Liability for damages is excluded to the extent legally permissible where damage results from:

  • Improper or non-intended use
  • Incorrect installation or assembly not performed according to instructions
  • Failure to observe safety, operating, or maintenance instructions
  • Modifications or repairs carried out by the customer or unauthorized third parties
  • Use of incompatible accessories or devices
  • External influences beyond product specifications (e.g., weather conditions, voltage fluctuations, moisture, misuse)

The customer is responsible for verifying compatibility and suitability before installation and use.


8. Electronic Products

Electronic products must be used strictly in accordance with their technical specifications and applicable safety standards.

Improper connection, incorrect voltage supply, unauthorized modification, or use beyond specified limits excludes liability to the extent legally permissible.


9. House and Garden Products

House and garden products must be used exclusively for their intended residential purpose.

Outdoor products must be installed and maintained according to manufacturer instructions.

Damage caused by improper installation, lack of maintenance, or weather exposure beyond specified product limits is excluded from liability to the extent permitted by law.


10. No Commercial Guarantee

Unless expressly stated in writing, no independent commercial guarantee (Garantie) within the meaning of §§ 443, 477 BGB is granted.

Product descriptions, technical data, images, and illustrations serve as general product information and do not constitute guaranteed characteristics unless explicitly designated as such.


11. Copyright and Intellectual Property

All texts, images, graphics, layouts, and product descriptions created by us are protected under German copyright law.

Any reproduction, editing, distribution, or use beyond the limits of copyright law requires prior written consent.


12. Severability Clause

Should any provision of this disclaimer be wholly or partially invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected.

1️⃣ Withdrawal Policy (Widerrufsbelehrung)

Right of Withdrawal

Consumers have the right to withdraw from this contract within fourteen (14) days without giving any reason.

The withdrawal period is fourteen days from the day:

  • on which you or a third party named by you (other than the carrier) takes possession of the goods; or

To exercise the right of withdrawal, you must inform:

by means of a clear statement by email of your decision to withdraw from this contract.

Effects of Withdrawal

We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise. In no event will you be charged any fees for this reimbursement.

We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is earlier.

You must return the goods without undue delay and in any event no later than fourteen days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal to us.

You will bear the direct cost of returning the goods, unless otherwise stated.

You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics, and functioning of the goods.
