1) Scope of Application

1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "GTC") of Bastian Deppisch, trading as "MainContent Inh. Bastian Deppisch" (hereinafter referred to as "Mediator"), apply to all contracts for the mediation of contracts (hereinafter "Main Contract") that a consumer or entrepreneur (hereinafter "Customer") concludes with the Mediator via the Mediator's website. The inclusion of the Customer's own conditions is objected to, unless otherwise agreed.

1.2 For the purpose of these GTC, a consumer is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that predominantly are outside their trade, business, or profession. An entrepreneur is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when entering into a legal transaction, acts in exercise of their trade, business, or profession.

2) Subject of the Contract

The subject of the contract regulated in these GTC between the customer and the Mediator is the mediation of contracts to be concluded between the customer and a third-party provider (hereinafter "Provider"). The content of the Main Contract results from the respective product or service description on the website of the respective provider. The Mediator's obligation to perform is limited to directing the customer to the offer of the respective provider via electronic linking on its website. The Mediator does not become a party to the Main Contract and does not accept any declarations of intent concerning the Main Contract. Furthermore, the Mediator does not guarantee that a contract between the customer and the provider will actually be concluded. The performance of the Main Contract is not carried out by the Mediator but by the respective provider. For the Main Contract, the legal provisions in the relationship between the customer and the provider as well as, if applicable, deviating contract conditions of the respective provider apply.

3) Conclusion of the Contract

3.1 The Mediator provides various advertising links or banners on its website, which the customer can use to be directed to the offers of the respective providers by clicking with the mouse. The provision of these advertising links or banners constitutes a binding offer by the Mediator to conclude a brokerage contract, which the customer can accept by clicking on the respective advertising link or banner with the mouse.

3.2 The contract text regarding the mediation is neither stored by the Mediator nor is it accessible to the customer after submission of their contract declaration.

3.3 The German language is available for the conclusion of the contract.

4) Remuneration

The mediation of the Main Contract is free of charge for the customer. Any costs that may arise for the customer through the mediated Main Contract will be communicated to the customer in the offer of the respective provider and, in the event of a contract conclusion, will be settled directly between the provider and the customer. In this respect, the legal provisions in the relationship between the customer and the provider apply, as well as, if applicable, deviating contract conditions of the respective provider.

5) Performance Disturbances

5.1 The Mediator is liable to the customer for performance disturbances related to the mediation of contracts in the relationship between the Mediator and the customer according to the statutory provisions.

5.2 The Mediator is not liable for performance disturbances in the Main Contract between the customer and the provider. Claims due to performance disturbances in the Main Contract must be asserted directly against the respective provider by the customer.

6) Applicable Law

The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to all legal relationships between the parties. For consumers, this choice of law applies only to the extent that the protection provided by mandatory provisions of the law of the state in which the consumer has their habitual residence is not withdrawn.

7) Alternative Dispute Resolution

7.1 The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution on the Internet at the following link: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr
This platform serves as a point of contact for the out-of-court resolution of disputes arising from online purchase or service contracts in which a consumer is involved.
