We reserve ownership of the delivered goods until all claims from the delivery contract are paid in full. This also applies to all future deliveries, even if we do not always expressly refer to this. We are entitled to reclaim the goods if the buyer breaches these terms.
For as long as the ownership has not been transferred, the buyer must immediately inform us in writing if the supplied work is seized or subject to any other actions by third parties. If the third party is unable to reimburse us for the costs of the action incurred both in and out of court in accordance with Section 771 of the Civil Process Order (ZPO), the buyer shall be responsible for our losses.
The buyer is entitled to resell the reserved goods in the normal course of business. The buyer assigns to us any claims by the new owner arising from the resale of the goods in the amount of the mutually agreed final invoice amount (including VAT). This assignment shall apply regardless of whether the purchased goods have been resold before or after being processed. The buyer remains authorized to collect the claim, even after assignment. Our authority to collect the claim ourselves remains unaffected. However, we will not collect the claim if the buyer fulfills their payment obligations ensuing from the collected revenue, is not in default of payment, and in particular has not suspended payments or filed a petition in bankruptcy.
We undertake to release the securities we are entitled to at the buyer’s request if their value exceeds the claims to be secured by more than 20%.
§ 9 Warranty, notice of defect as well as recourse/manufacturer’s recourse
For the buyer to have warranty rights, the Buyer must have duly satisfied their duty to examine and object to defects under Section 377 of the German Commercial Code (HGB).
Claims for defects expire 12 months after delivery of the work supplied by us. The statutory period of limitation applies to claims for damages in the event of intent and gross negligence, as well as injury to life, body, and health caused by an intentional or negligent breach of obligation on the part of the user.
If, despite all due care, the delivered product or work shows a defect, we must always be given the opportunity for subsequent performance within a reasonable period of time. Claims for recourse are not affected by the above provision, without exception.
Claims for defects will not be substantiated in the case of only insignificant deviations from the agreed quality and/or only insignificant impairment of usability. The same applies to incompatibilities with other hardware or software, the compatibility of which is not part of the service description. This applies in particular to new versions of hardware and software from third parties that were not yet released at the time of the quotation. If improper repairs or modifications are made by the buyer or third parties, no defect claims can be made for these or for any damages resulting from these.
Any recourse claims on the part of the buyer against us shall exist only to the extent that the buyer has not entered into any agreements with their customers going beyond the mandatory statutory claims based on defects. The scope of recourse claims by the buyer against the supplier is further regulated by Section 5.
§ 10 Miscellaneous
This contract and all legal relationships between the parties are subject to the law of the Federal Republic of Germany, under exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).
The place of performance and exclusive place of jurisdiction and for all disputes arising from this contract is Ludwigsburg unless otherwise stated in the order confirmation.
All agreements entered into by the parties for the purpose of fulfilling this contract are set forth in this contract in writing.
§ 6 Right of retention
The buyer has only the right to exercise a lien insofar as their counterclaim is based on the same contractual relationship.
§ 7 Delivery period
The beginning of the delivery period as indicated by us requires the prompt and proper fulfilment of the obligations on the part of the buyer. The objection of the unfulfilled contract remains reserved.
If the buyer is in default of accepting delivery or if they knowingly infringe other obligations to cooperate, we reserve the right to demand adequate compensation for any and all damages resulting, including any additional expenditure. A default occurs if the service is rejected without no reason and not reported in writing within 3 weeks after the delivery of the service. Further claims remain reserved. If the above requirements are met, the risk of accidental loss or deterioration of the delivered item is transferred to the buyer at the moment in which the acceptance or payment of the item is delayed.
§ 8 Reservation of ownership
We reserve ownership of the delivered goods until all claims from the delivery contract are paid in full. This also applies to all future deliveries, even if we do not always expressly refer to this. We are entitled to reclaim the goods if the buyer breaches these terms.

The licensing of the FieldBots cloud and apps and other services is offered as an annual flat rate per robot.

In the FieldBots cloud, additional service robots can be purchased in an internal shop under the conditions shown there and according to the price stated in the online price list.
Unless otherwise stated in offers for consulting projects, training courses or development services, quotations calculated on person days are also the performance of a work according to Section 631 of the German Civil Code (BGB).

In any case, we assume the risk of the defect-free work and calculate the stated amount regardless of the actual number of person days required without further evidence. After written approval by the buyer, the detailed requirements document or descriptions of individual functions (“user stories”), which are to be drawn up by us as part of the contract, will replace the service description in the quotation.
