14. Right of Withdrawal
Right of Withdrawal for Consumers - Withdrawal Policy:
If the customer is a consumer (any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for a purpose that cannot be attributed to either their commercial or self-employed professional activity), they may revoke their acceptance of the contract in writing (e.g., letter, fax, email) within 14 days without providing a reason. The period begins upon conclusion of the contract.
To comply with the cancellation period, it is sufficient to send the cancellation notice in a timely manner.
Cancellation Policy for Digital Content:
Notice Regarding the Right of Withdrawal for Consumers Concerning the Delivery of Digital Content That Is Not Provided on a Physical Medium (e.g., online courses, e-books, software downloads).
Exclusion or Premature Termination of the Right of Withdrawal:
The right of withdrawal does not apply to contracts for the delivery of digital content that is not pre-produced and for which the consumer’s individual selection or specification is decisive for its production, or that is clearly tailored to the consumer’s personal needs.
The right of withdrawal expires prematurely if REINVENTIS has not yet begun to perform the contract until the customer has given their express consent and, at the same time, confirmed their awareness that they lose their right of withdrawal once REINVENTIS begins to perform the contract.
REINVENTIS notes that it may make the conclusion of the contract contingent upon the aforementioned consent and confirmation.
The notice of withdrawal must be sent to:
REINVENTIS

Sample Cancellation Form:
I/we (*) hereby revoke the order placed by me/us (*)
Concluded contract for the purchase of the following goods (*) / procurement of the following services (*).
Ordered on (*) / received on (*).
Name of the consumer(s).
Signature of the consumer(s)
(only for notifications on paper).
Date.
______________________________________________
(*) Please delete as appropriate
Consequences of Cancellation:
In the event of a valid cancellation, the parties must return the performance received and, if applicable, surrender any benefits derived (e.g., interest). If the customer is unable to return the performance received, in whole or in part, or can return it only in a deteriorated condition, the customer must compensate the provider for the loss in value to the extent applicable. This may result in the customer still being required to fulfill the contractual payment obligations for the period up to the revocation.
Compensation for the deterioration of the item and for any benefits derived from it is required only to the extent that such benefits or deterioration result from handling the item in a manner that goes beyond what is necessary to examine its characteristics and functionality.
"Examining the characteristics and functionality" refers to testing and trying out the product in question, as is possible and customary in a retail store.
No compensation for loss of value is required for deterioration resulting from the use of the item in accordance with its intended purpose.
Items that can be shipped as packages must be returned at the seller’s risk. The customer must bear the standard costs of the return shipment if the item delivered matches the one ordered and if the price of the item to be returned does not exceed €40, or if, in the case of a higher price, the consideration or a contractually agreed installment has not yet been paid at the time of cancellation. Otherwise, the return is free of charge for the customer.
Obligations to refund payments must be fulfilled within 30 days. For the customer, this period begins when the customer sends the notice of withdrawal; for the provider, it begins upon receipt of the notice.
We will use the same payment method for this refund that you used for the original transaction, unless we have expressly agreed otherwise with you; under no circumstances will you be charged any fees in connection with this refund.
Special Notes:
In the case of the provision of services, the right of withdrawal expires prematurely if the contract has been fully performed by both parties at the customer’s express request before the customer has exercised their right of withdrawal.
If the customer is a business owner as defined in Section 14 of the German Civil Code (BGB) and is acting in the course of his or her commercial or self-employed activities at the time the contract is concluded, the right of withdrawal does not apply.
