General T&C Order Management

1. SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CONTRACT

1.1. orderbird GmbH, Ritterstraße 12 in 10969 Berlin ("orderbird") offers an internet-based service for the catering industry to make ordering and payment as easy as possible for end customers ("order management"). With order management, visitors can save waiting times and place their orders easily. Order management can be used in various catering areas and enables both an efficient QR code ordering system and orders for delivery or collection (ordering from anywhere). In addition, order management can also be used to order non-food items such as merchandise.

1.2. These General Terms and Conditions ("GTC") apply to the use of order management by customers who use the orderbird services described below to place orders with catering establishments ("Establishments") ("End Customers"). Separate General Terms and Conditions apply to the relationship between orderbird and businesses.

1.3. orderbird merely assumes the role of an intermediary between the End Customer and the Establishment. orderbird is not responsible for the offer and/or the contract between the End Customer and the Establishment. Additional general terms and conditions of the business may apply to the contractual relationship between the end customer and the business.

1.4. There is no entitlement to the use of order management.

2. SERVICE DESCRIPTION

2.1. Order management makes it possible to place orders ("orders") for products and services of the participating company ("offers"). This can include, at the choice of the business:

2.1.1. Pre-orders of food for collection by the end customer

2.1.2. Orders for food for delivery by the business

2.1.3. QR code ordering system for food, i.e. ordering in the establishment via the order management system

2.1.4. Room service in the hotel industry

2.1.5. Ordering non-food items for delivery or collection (without payment via the order management system)

2.2. With the exception of non-food items, ordered offers can also be paid for directly via the order management system using various online payment services.

3. VERTRAGSSCHLUSS BEI LEBENSMITTELN

3.1. If an end customer places an order for food via order management by clicking on the "Order subject to payment" button at the end of the order process and the order is subsequently confirmed by order management, a contract is concluded with the company for the production of the selected offer. Depending on the service selected, the contract is also concluded for the delivery, collection or in-house handover of the food ordered.

3.2. If the ordered offer is no longer available or if the end customer cannot be reached in response to queries from the business or if the end customer has provided incorrect contact details, in particular an incorrect or non-functioning telephone number, the business can cancel the order (if necessary also via orderbird) and thereby withdraw from the contract. Clause 6.3 shall apply accordingly to the refund.

4. NON-FOOD ARTICLES

4.1. Non-food items such as merchandise can also be ordered via the order management system if the company offers this service.

4.2. The provisions contained in these GTC shall apply accordingly insofar as they are applicable to non-food items and no deviating provisions exist.

4.3. For non-food items, however, orderbird only acts as an intermediary for the order. Therefore, the contract for non-food items is only concluded when the end customer collects the respective product from the business or it is handed over to him by an employee of the business. This means that, in deviation from section 3, a contract is only concluded at this point in time.

CONTACT INFORMATION, ACCEPTANCE OF THE ORDER, AGE VERIFICATION

5.1. The end customer must provide correct and complete payment details and contact information. The end customer must be available to the company and orderbird under this contact information after placing the order, in particular in order to be informed about the progress of his order. The end customer must immediately report any errors in his contact and/or payment details to the company and orderbird so that the order can be properly executed.

5.2. If delivery has been agreed, the end customer must be present at the specified delivery address to accept the delivery. If collection by the end customer has been agreed, the ordered offers must be collected at the collection time selected in the order process or specified by the company/orderbird. Any deterioration in the quality of the food due to late collection shall be borne by the end customer.

5.2. If alcoholic beverages or other products with an age restriction have been ordered, the business must request age verification from the end customer upon delivery or collection. If age verification is not possible, the establishment must refuse to hand over the products in question to the end customer. The end customer may be charged cancellation costs in the amount of the purchase price (excluding VAT) for the products concerned, unless the end customer can prove that the damage is lower.

6. DEALING WITH INCORRECT ORDERS

6.1. If the end customer places an incorrect or non-serious order, in particular by providing incorrect contact information, insufficient payment or by not collecting the ordered offers, or if the end customer fails to fulfil its obligations under the respective contract in any other way, orderbird is entitled to refuse future orders from this end customer.

6.2. If there is reasonable doubt as to the accuracy or seriousness of the order or the payment data or contact information provided, or if the business wishes to cancel the contract for other objective reasons, orderbird may reject the order and cancel the contract on behalf of the business.

6.3. If an order that has already been paid for is cancelled, orderbird shall transfer the amount to the same account or via the same payment service to the same recipient from which the order was paid for. This does not apply if the end customer has deliberately provided incorrect contact details or does not collect the order and the business has executed the order, as a result of which the business has incurred costs.

7. INFORMATION ON OFFERS

7.1. Offers that can be ordered via order management are based on the information that orderbird has received from the business. This information is also published on behalf of the business. orderbird does not check the accuracy or completeness of the information and is not responsible for the fulfillment of the contract.

7.2. The business may use ingredients and additives for food and drinks that may cause allergies and intolerances. It is recommended to contact the establishment in advance regarding any existing food allergies.

8. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

8.1. The right of withdrawal set out below applies to distance selling contracts in which businesses and end customers (as consumers) have used exclusively means of distance communication such as email or order management to initiate and conclude the contract.

However, if the contract is not concluded exclusively using order management, the right of withdrawal does not apply. This applies in particular in the case of the non-food items mentioned in section 4, where the contract is only concluded when the items are handed over in person.

8.2. Likewise, a contract cannot be revoked if it concerns the delivery of goods

8.2.1. which are not prefabricated and for the manufacture of which an individual selection or determination by the consumer is decisive or which are clearly tailored to the personal needs of the consumer (Section 312g (2) No. 1 BGB);

8.2.2. which can spoil quickly or whose expiry date would be quickly exceeded (§ 312g para. 2 no. 2 BGB);

8.2.3. which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after delivery (Section 312g (2) No. 3 BGB);

8.2.4. if they have been inseparably mixed with other goods after delivery due to their nature (§ 312g para. 2 no. 4 BGB).

The end customer is entitled to a right of withdrawal for the part of the order that does not fall under the above-mentioned exclusions, insofar as the end customer is a consumer within the meaning of § 13 BGB.
