1.3. Individual agreements reached in an individual case with the customer (including collateral agreements, supplements and amendments) shall in all cases have precedence over these TOS. In the absence of comprehensive evidence to the contrary, a written contract or our written confirmation is decisive for the content of such agreements.

The customer is bound by his order for a period of two weeks starting from the time of placing the order; a possible right of revocation of the customer pursuant to Section 4 remains unaffected.
3.3. We will confirm the receipt of the customer´s order by email without delay. However, this email does not constitute a binding declaration of the acceptance of the customer´s offer, unless the acceptance has been expressly declared in the confirmation of the receipt.
3.4. A binding contract is not formed until we have accepted the customer´s order by way of a declaration of acceptance or by supplying the ordered goods.
3.5. If a delivery of the ordered goods is not possible, for instance because the corresponding goods are not in stock, we will refrain from issuing a declaration of acceptance. In this case, no contract is established. We will inform the customer immediately of this and return any payments made without delay. In case of special promotions we are only obliged to supply until stocks are exhausted.
If you are a consumer within the meaning of § 13 German Civil Code (“BGB”), you have the right to revoke the contract within 14 days without indicating any reason.
The revocation period is 14 days and shall begin from the day on which you or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires the material possession of the goods.

In order to exercise your right of revocation, you must inform us (kymo GmbH, Alter Schlachthof 51, 76131 Karlsruhe, email: shop@kymo.de, Fax: 0123/4567890) about your decision to revoke the contract by means of a clear statement (for example by a letter mailed by post, telefax or email).
The revocation period is met if the communication concerning the exercise of the revocation right is sent before the end of the revocation period.
If you revoke this contract, we are obliged to reimburse any payment received from you including the costs of delivery (with the exception of the additional costs resulting from the fact that you have chosen another delivery than the cheapest standard delivery offered by us) without any undue delay and no later than 14 days from the day on which we have received the communication of revocation.
Unless we have specifically agreed otherwise with you, we will use the same mean of payment for the reimbursement which you have used for the initial transaction; in no event you will be charged with any fees for the reimbursement. We may withhold the reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You are obliged to send back the goods without any undue delay and no later than 14 days from the day on which you have informed us about the revocation of contract to the following address:

The proof of higher damages and our statutory claims (in particular reimbursement of additional expenses, reasonable compensation, termination) remain unaffected; the lump-sum compensation is however to be offset against further monetary claims.
