§8 Warranty / Liability

  1. weddies assumes liability for material defects in accordance with the statutory provisions on purchase pursuant to §§ 433 ff. BGB, unless otherwise stipulated below.
  2. A special quality of the goods to be delivered is not agreed. The delivered goods shall be deemed defective if they do not meet the technical standard of digital photo development and processing. Color differences between the images and the original photographs cannot be technically avoided and are therefore not defects. Likewise, a defect does not exist if a loss of quality is caused by the characteristics of the original files (e.g. "lack of resolution") of the customer. weddies does not assume any guarantee of quality or durability.
  3. The customer must notify weddies in writing of any obvious defects in the delivered goods that are apparent without special attention immediately upon delivery, but no later than two weeks after receipt, specifying the defect. However, a later assertion of obvious defects shall not lead to a loss of warranty rights for a consumer.
  4. If the order is placed by an entrepreneur within the scope of his professional activity, the entrepreneur is obliged to inspect the goods immediately upon receipt and to report any recognizable defects within one week. If the entrepreneur fails to give notice, the goods shall be deemed to have been approved. The same shall apply to defects that appear later.
  5. weddies is entitled to the right of subsequent performance. However, the customer reserves the right to reduce the price or withdraw from the contract if subsequent performance fails. In the event of withdrawal from the contract, the customer is obliged to return the goods in full.
  6. If the delivered goods are defective, subsequent performance shall take the form of a replacement delivery. Weddies is entitled to a total of two attempts at subsequent performance. If these are unsuccessful or if weddies does not fulfill the supplementary performance despite a reasonable deadline set by the customer, the supplementary performance shall be deemed to have failed and the customer shall be entitled to the statutory claims specified in Section 5.
  7. weddies excludes liability for slightly negligent breaches of duty insofar as they do not concern damages arising from injury to life, limb or health or claims under the Product Liability Act. Furthermore, liability for the breach of essential contractual obligations (cardinal obligations), the fulfillment of which is essential for the proper execution of the contract and on the observance of which the customer may regularly rely, remains unaffected. The same applies to breaches by vicarious agents.
  8. The amount of the claim for damages is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for the contract.


§9 Copyrights / Unauthorized use

  1. The customer is solely responsible for the content of the transmitted media files. The customer assures weddies that no copyrights, trademark rights or other rights of third parties, in particular of persons or objects depicted in the media files, are infringed by the contractual processing of the order. If third parties assert an infringement of their rights to images, image files or a violation of their personal rights against weddies, the customer placing the media files in question undertakes to indemnify weddies against all claims asserted against weddies by third parties at the latest on first written request and to compensate weddies for all damages resulting from the infringement, including the necessary costs of legal defense.
  2. weddies attaches great importance to compliance with the protection of minors and the observance of personal rights. The customer is therefore not permitted to upload media files that contain criminal, illegal or immoral, in particular pornographic, inciting or extremist content. Should weddies become aware of any violations of this guarantee, weddies may remove these files without prior notice and will immediately involve the criminal prosecution authorities in the event of urgent suspicion or clearly criminal acts.
