Exclusions to the Right of Cancelation

If, despite careful inspection, defects should occur, we will modify the vitallusPLUS® Vacuum Extender or assume the costs of manufacturing a new one. If this should occur, please return the item to us (post-paid) together with a detailed description of the defect(s).

§ 9 Disposal of Packaging according to the Regulation on Packaging

For more information about returns, the customers of such products should contact us:
m2 company
Oberkasseler Strasse 88
40545 Duesseldorf

§ 10 Warranty
The legal warranty period applies. If the items delivered should have apparent manufacturing or material defects (including damage occurring during transport), please file a claim with us and the employee of the shipping company in this regard.

§ 11 Measurement Tolerances
Color deviations, changes in the material and product line, period of use The vitallusPLUS® Vacuum Extender (cylinder including the compression sleeve) is manually adjusted to the measurements indicated by the customer. Measurement tolerances of +/- 10% are possible. These do not represent a defect. The colors shown depend on the settings and quality of the computer monitor used by the customer. We therefore cannot provide any guarantee with regard to color fidelity. There may be slight color deviations for technical reasons and these do not represent a flaw. Likewise, claims cannot be filed due to possible variations in execution and are not binding for future execution.
The cylinder and compression sleeve are intended for a maximum service life of 4 to 6 weeks (with daily use), since natural latex has limited durability when used and can become brittle with time. For hygienic reasons as well, the product should be replaced after this period of time. Natural latex cannot be stored indefinitely. Therefore, we mark cylinders and compression sleeves with an expiration date of 12 months after the date of manufacture. The cylinders and compression sleeves should be stored under airtight, dry, cool and dark conditions. The ideal temperature for storage is between +15 to + 20ºC.

§ 12 Liability
The m2 company does not provide a guarantee for defects and consequential damage resulting from or in connection with improper use, particularly if the use occurs contrary to the manufacturer’s specifications or occurs in an incorrect manner. The same applies for the direct liability of the entities, the legal representatives and the agents of us. There is no product liability of the M2 company, in particular any indemnification claims of the customer arising from this, if the product defect is due to improper use or the product was used contrary to the manufacturer’s specifications or is not used correctly. Use is at one’s own risk. The m2 company is obligated to designate to an aggrieved party, within one month after receipt of whose request in this regard, the manufacturer or the person who delivered the product to the m2 company. The m2 company is only liable for malice and gross negligence.

§ 13 Data Protection
We process customers’ personal data only for the purpose of executing orders and in this connection we do not transmit them to third parties.

§ 14 Business Dealings with Merchants
The aforementioned provisions with regard to the right of cancelation and returns do not apply to business dealings with merchants. In these cases, the legal regulations for merchants apply. If the purchaser is a merchant, the place of jurisdiction for both contract partners is Duesseldorf. The laws of the Federal Republic of Germany apply exclusively.

§ 15 Severability Clause
If individual provisions of these General Terms and Conditions should be not legally effective in whole or in part or should they later lose legal effectiveness, the validity of the General Terms and Conditions remains otherwise unaffected by this. The legal provisions take the place of the non-effective provision. The same applies if the General Terms and Conditions should have a non-foreseen loophole.
