3. Access to schottmusiclondon.com
We will do our utmost to ensure that availability of the website will be uninterrupted and that transmissions will be error-free.

If any damage occurs by the use of information presented, only the author of the respective pages might be liable, not the one who has linked to these pages. Furthermore schottmusiclondon.com is not liable for any postings or messages published by users of discussion boards, guest books or mailing lists provided on its page.

 

7. Copyright and database rights

In particular, you may not utilise any data mining, robots, or similar data gathering and extraction tools to extract (whether once or many times) for re-utilisation of any substantial parts of this website, without schottmusiclondon.com's express written consent. You also may not create and/or publish your own database that features substantial parts (for example: our prices and product listings) of this website without schottmusiclondon.com's express written consent.

 

8. Conclusion of contract
The description of our range of products on the Internet just serves to inform you. It is not an offer to conclude a contract. By sending an order to schottmusiclondon.com, you offer to conclude a contract. You will receive an e-mail or other message confirming receipt of the offer. If individual information on the range of products on schottmusiclondon.com is incorrect, schottmusiclondon.com shall inform you separately after receipt of the order and submit an appropriate counter-offer to you. The contract with schottmusiclondon.com shall be concluded with schottmusiclondon.com’s acceptance of your offer. The acceptance of the offer shall be subject to the proviso that the goods are actually available. A separate confirmation of the acceptance of the offer by schottmusiclondon.com to you shall not be necessary. If schottmusiclondon.com cannot accept your offer, you will be informed electronically.

 

9. Returns
You shall be entitled to withdraw from the purchase within two weeks after receipt of the goods by returning the goods to schottmusiclondon.com. To comply with this term, it is sufficient to despatch the goods in time. The charges for the return of the goods shall be your responsibility. In the case of withdrawal, schottmusiclondon.com shall refund the purchase price, if already paid, to you. Any return charges paid by schottmusiclondon.com will be deducted from the purchase price. With refunds to foreign countries, the transfer fee will be deducted as well. In the case of a considerable deterioration in the quality of the goods or in the case of loss, you shall make good the corresponding reduction in value or loss to us if you withdraw from the purchase. If you have already paid the purchase price, schottmusiclondon.com shall be entitled to deduct the reduction in value from the amount repayable.

The right of withdrawal shall be barred in the following cases:

  • purchases of audio or video recordings or software if the delivered data carriers have been unsealed by you or the shrink-wrap is not intact any more;
  • purchases of goods manufactured according to your specifications or of goods unsuitable for returns, such as antiquarian or archive items;
  • purchases where right of withdrawal is expressly barred.

 

10. Pricing

Due to price fluctuations in the industry, and the fact that schottmusiclondon.com is dealing with a large number of suppliers, prices displayed are subject to change. schottmusiclondon.com is working to ensure that as many of the prices as possible reflect the publishers’ current catalogue prices. You will be charged the price shown on our website - but if we deem that the difference from the publisher's current catalogue price is too large, then we may cancel the order and fully refund you. This does not affect your statutory rights.

 

11. Customs
When ordering goods from schottmusiclondon.com for delivery overseas you may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once the package reaches the specified destination.

Any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country, so you should contact your local customs office for further information.

Additionally, please note that when ordering from schottmusiclondon.com, you are considered the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the country in which you are receiving the goods.

 

12. Electronic communications
When you visit schottmusiclondon.com or send e-mails to us, you are communicating with us electronically. For contractual purposes, you will receive communications from us. The legal basis for the processing of personal data for the preparation and/or implementation a contractual relationship is Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR.

 

13. Losses
schottmusiclondon.com will be responsible for any losses you suffer as a result of our breaching these conditions if the losses were reasonably foreseeable to both you and us when you commenced using the website, or a contract for the sale of goods by us to you was formed. We will not be responsible for any business loss (including loss of profits, revenue, contracts, anticipated savings, data, goodwill or wasted expenditure as well as lawyer’s fees) or any other indirect or consequential loss that is not reasonably foreseeable to both you and us when you commenced using the website or when a contract for the sale of goods by us to you was formed. schottmusiclondon.com does not limit in any way its liability by law for death or personal injury caused from our negligence or breach of duty.

 

14. Alteration of Service or Amendments to the Conditions
We reserve the right to make changes to our website, policies, and these "Conditions of Use and Sale" at any time. You will be subject to the terms and conditions of "Conditions of Use and Sale" in force at the time that you use the website or that you order goods from us, unless any change to those policies or these conditions is required to be made by law or government authority (in which case it will apply to orders previously placed by you). If any of these conditions is deemed invalid, void, or for any reason unenforceable, that condition will be deemed severable and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining condition.

 
 
15. Events beyond our reasonable control
We will not be held responsible for any delay or failure to comply with our obligations under these conditions if the delay or failure arises from any cause which is beyond our reasonable control. This condition does not affect your statutory rights.

 

16. Waiver
If you breach these conditions and we take no action, we will still be entitled to use our rights and remedies in any other situation where you breach these conditions.
