Unless otherwise agreed in writing, these General Terms and Conditions apply exclusively to the contractual relationship between the Customer and MIWE Michael Wenz GmbH, hereinafter referred to as "the Company". This also applies if the Customer's own terms and conditions are contained in the application or a confirmation letter. Deviating general terms and conditions of the Customer are not recognised, even if they are not expressly contradicted.
(1) The Company's offer is not to be understood as an application within the meaning of § 145 of the German Civil Code (BGB),
but as an invitation to the Customer to submit an application for the conclusion of a contract. (2) Documents belonging to the invitation to tender, such as illustrations, drawings, etc., are only to be regarded as approximately accurate in terms of dimensions and weight, unless the accuracy of dimensions and weight has been expressly confirmed in writing by the Company. (3) The contract shall only be concluded upon acceptance of the order by the Company. (4) Properties of the work to be performed by the Company shall only be deemed warranted to the extent that the Company has expressly declared the warranty as such in writing. (5) A separate supplementary agreement shall be concluded prior to execution for services that are not included in the order or that deviate from the service description. If this supplementary agreement is not concluded, the Company shall not be obliged to perform these additional or modified services.
(1) A binding price shall only be determined upon acceptance of the order by the Company and on condition that the order data on which the acceptance of the order is based remain unchanged.

In the event of late delivery, the start of execution and the associated execution deadlines shall be postponed accordingly.
(1) Deadlines shall only be binding if they have been confirmed as binding in writing by the Company to the Customer. (2) If the Company is responsible for exceeding the completion deadlines, the Customer shall grant a reasonable grace period. After expiry of the grace period, the Customer shall only be entitled to terminate the contract if he has declared in the context of setting the grace period that he will withdraw from the contract after the fruitless expiry of the grace period. The dispensability of setting a deadline in accordance with § 323 Para. 2 of the German Civil Code (BGB) shall remain unaffected by the above provision.(3) Force majeure, operational disruptions and similar unforeseeable circumstances for which the Company is not responsible shall release the Company from compliance with the completion deadlines for the duration of the operational disruption. The execution deadlines will be extended accordingly. In addition, the Customer shall not be entitled to withdraw from the contract or to terminate the contract unless it cannot reasonably be expected to adhere to the contract until the disruptive circumstances have been remedied
