  1. \n
      \n \t
    1. “Advertising order” within the meaning of the following General Terms and Conditions is the contract for the publication of one or more advertisements by an advertiser or other advertiser in a printed publication or in an electronic medium for the purpose of distribution.<\/li>\n \t
    2. In case of doubt, advertisements must be called off for publication within one year of conclusion of the contract. If the right to call off individual advertisements has been granted within the framework of a contract, the order must be completed within one year of publication of the first advertisement, provided that the first advertisement is called off and published within the period specified in this clause.<\/li>\n \t
    3. In the case of contracts, the client shall be entitled to call off further advertisements within the agreed period or the period specified in Clause 2, even beyond the quantity of advertisements specified in the order.<\/li>\n \t
    4. If an order is not fulfilled due to circumstances for which the publisher is not responsible, the client shall, without prejudice to any further legal obligations, reimburse the publisher for the difference between the discount granted and the discount corresponding to the actual acceptance. The reimbursement shall not apply if the non-fulfillment is due to force majeure within the publisher’s sphere of risk.<\/li>\n \t
    5. Orders for advertisements and third-party supplements which are declared to be published exclusively in certain numbers, certain issues or in certain places in the publication must be received by the publisher in good time so that the client can be informed before the advertising deadline if the order cannot be executed in this way. Classified advertisements shall be printed in the relevant section without this requiring express agreement.<\/li>\n \t
    6. Text section advertisements are advertisements that run for at least three pages accompanying the text and are not adjacent to other advertisements. Advertisements that are not recognizable as advertisements due to their editorial design will be clearly identified as such by the publisher with the word “sponsored”.<\/li>\n \t
    7. The publisher reserves the right to reject advertising orders – including individual call-offs within the framework of a contract – and insert orders on the grounds of content, origin or technical form in accordance with uniform, objectively justified principles of the publisher if their content violates laws or official regulations or if their publication is unreasonable for the publisher. This also applies to orders placed with branch offices, receiving offices or representatives. Orders for inserts are only binding for the publisher after a sample of the insert has been submitted and approved. Inserts which, due to their format or layout, give the reader the impression that they are part of the newspaper or magazine, or which contain third-party advertisements, will not be accepted. The client will be informed immediately if an order is rejected.<\/li>\n \t
    8. The client is responsible for the timely delivery of the advertisement text and flawless printing material or inserts. The publisher shall immediately request replacements for recognizably unsuitable or damaged print material. The publisher shall guarantee the usual print or media quality for the booked title within the scope of the possibilities offered by the print material.<\/li>\n \t
    9. If the advertisement is completely or partially illegible, incorrect or incomplete, the client shall be entitled to a reduction in payment or a faultless replacement advertisement, but only to the extent that the purpose of the advertisement has been impaired. If the publisher allows a reasonable period for this to elapse or if the replacement advertisement is again not flawless, the client shall be entitled to a reduction in payment or to cancel the order. Claims for damages arising from positive breach of contract, culpa in contrahendo and tort are excluded, even if the order was placed by telephone. Claims for damages arising from impossibility of performance and delay are limited to compensation for foreseeable damage and to the fee payable for the advertisement or insert in question. This does not apply to intent or gross negligence on the part of the publisher, its legal representative and its vicarious agents. The publisher’s liability for damages due to the absence of warranted characteristics remains unaffected. In commercial business transactions, the publisher is also not liable for gross negligence on the part of vicarious agents: in other cases, liability for gross negligence towards merchants is limited to the extent of foreseeable damage up to the amount of the relevant advertising fee. Complaints must be made within four weeks of receipt of invoice and receipt, except in the case of non-obvious defects.<\/li>\n \t
    10. Proofs will only be supplied on express request. The client is responsible for the accuracy of the proofs sent. The publisher shall take into account all corrections of errors that are communicated to it within the deadline set when the proof is sent.<\/li>\n \t
    11. If no special size specifications are given, the calculation shall be based on the actual print height customary for the type of advertisement.<\/li>\n \t
    12. Invoices for individual orders are due for payment no later than fourteen days before the deadline for printing documents. For all “marketing packages” and special offers, the total amount is due for payment immediately without deduction. The current media documents apply. In the event of late payment, the publisher will postpone further execution of the current order.<\/li>\n \t
    13. In the event of late payment or deferral of payment, interest and collection costs will be charged. In the event of late payment, the publisher shall defer further execution of the current order. If there are reasonable doubts about the client’s ability to pay, the publisher is entitled to make the processing of further orders and marketing packages dependent on the immediate payment of the full amount, regardless of the originally agreed payment terms. In all other respects, point 12 must be observed.<\/li>\n \t
    14. On request, the publisher will supply an advertisement voucher with the invoice. Depending on the type and scope of the advertisement order, advertisement cuttings, pages of proofs or complete proof numbers will be supplied. If a voucher can no longer be obtained, it shall be replaced by a legally binding certificate from the publisher confirming the publication and distribution of the advertisement.<\/li>\n \t
    15. Costs for the production of ordered printing blocks, matrices and drawings as well as for significant changes to originally agreed designs requested by the client or for which the client is responsible shall be borne by the client.<\/li>\n \t
    16. In the case of a contract for several advertisements, a reduction in circulation may give rise to a claim for a price reduction if the total average circulation for the insertion year beginning with the first advertisement falls below the average circulation stated in the price list or otherwise or – if no circulation is stated – the average paid circulation (in the case of trade journals, the average actual circulation) for the previous calendar year. A reduction in circulation shall only constitute a defect justifying a price reduction if it amounts to 20 % for a circulation of up to 50,000 copies, 15 % for a circulation of up to 100,000 copies, 10 % for a circulation of up to 500,000 copies and 5 % for a circulation of over 500,000 copies. In addition, claims for price reductions are excluded for the contracts if the publisher has informed the client of the reduction in circulation in sufficient time for the client to withdraw from the contract before publication of the advertisement.<\/li>\n \t
    17. The place of performance is the registered office of the publisher. In business transactions with merchants, legal entities under public law or special funds under public law, the place of jurisdiction for legal action shall be the registered office of the publisher. Insofar as claims of the publisher are not asserted in dunning proceedings, the place of jurisdiction for non-merchants shall be determined by their place of residence. If the domicile or habitual residence of the customer, even in the case of non-merchants, is unknown at the time the action is brought or if the customer has moved his domicile or habitual residence outside the area of application of the law after conclusion of the contract, the place of jurisdiction shall be the registered office of the publisher.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
