    If you have chosen direct debit, you do not need to be registered with PayPal. By confirming the payment instruction, you grant PayPal a direct debit mandate. You will be informed by PayPal in a separate prenotification about the date of the account debit.

5. Retention of Title
The goods remain our property until full payment is made.

6. Transport Damage
If goods are delivered with obvious transport damage, please report such defects to the carrier as soon as possible and contact us immediately. Failing to make a complaint or contact us has no consequences for your legal claims and their enforcement, especially your warranty rights. However, you help us assert our own claims against the carrier or the transport insurance.

Unless expressly agreed otherwise in clause 8, statutory defect liability law applies. Information on any additional warranties and their exact conditions can be found with the product and on special information pages in the shop.
