2.1. None of the descriptions of either products or services as displayed in the MARINEPOOL web shop – available through the national and international links www.marinepool.de, www.marinepool.com, and www.marinepool.fr – or in printed catalogues shall be construed as a legally binding invitation to conclude a sales contract.

By clicking on a selected item and, if applicable, its respectively selected size and by clicking on the button “add to cart” thereafter, the customer may add such item to their virtual cart. Thereupon, the customer will be redirected to their virtual cart, where they will be able to review the added item and apply any corrections as required, such as changing the quantity of the item, or remove such added item from their cart or proceed to add further items to their cart as required by clicking on the button “continue shopping”. Any changes to the quantity of an item will be applied by clicking on the button “update shopping cart”.

Thereafter, the customer will be able to place a binding order for the items in their virtual cart by clicking on the button “place order”. Any acknowledgement of receipt of such order, as may be sent automatically by our system, shall exclusively serve as notification of our receipt of an invitation to conclude a contract and shall not be construed as an acceptance of such invitation by us. However, where the receipt of such order is acknowledged in conjunction with its acceptance by way of an automatically generated e-mail sent immediately after placing the respective order, the sales contract shall be deemed concluded by way of such e-mail.

As part of the process of inviting us to conclude a sales contract, the customer will be able to verify their submission by clicking on the “submit” button (on the confirmation site opening thereupon).

Any corrections may be applied by clicking on the browser’s “return” button, thereby returning to the previous items page, or alternatively by closing the browser window or by clicking on the button “clear shopping cart”, thereby cancelling the entire process and subsequently going back to the items page. Such corrections may be applied by making use of the common keyboard and mouse functions in the respective input fields.

However, MARINEPOOL reserves the right to refuse any invitation to conclude a contract without justification.

Any initial communication as well as any communication after the conclusion of a contract will usually be accomplished by e-mail. The customer shall ensure the e-mail address submitted for the purpose of processing their order to be correct in order to be able to receive any e-mail sent by us. The customer shall pay particular attention to any SPAM filters in operation in order to ensure their receipt of any and all e-mails sent by us or third-parties contracted by us for the purpose of order processing.
