  9. In the event that any provision of the Terms or the Contract is or becomes invalid, ineffective or unenforceable, the validity, effectiveness and enforceability of the remaining provisions of the Terms and the Contract shall not be affected. The contracting parties shall cooperate with each other to ensure that an invalid, ineffective or unenforceable provision is replaced by a provision that preserves, to the greatest extent possible, the spirit and purpose intended by the invalid, ineffective or unenforceable provision. The same applies in the case of a contractual gap.
  10. The Customer declares that these Terms do not contain any provisions that he/she/it could not reasonably expect and expressly accepts these Terms in their entirety.
  11. The Customer declares that he/she/it is not unreasonably disadvantaged by the conclusion of the Contract or by these Terms, in particular that the performance values of the Supplier and the Customer correspond to each other.
  12. The Customer expressly acknowledges that the provisions of these Terms and the Contract are the result of negotiations and that each contracting party has had the opportunity to influence their content. The contracting parties agree to exclude the application of the provisions of the Civil Code to contracts of adhesion.
  13. The parties do not wish, beyond the express provisions of these Terms or the Contract, for any rights and duties to be inferred from past or future practice established between the parties or customary practices generally or in the industry relating to the subject matter of performance, unless otherwise expressly agreed in the Contract. In addition to the foregoing, the parties confirm that they are not aware of any previously established different business customs or practices between them.
  14. The parties have disclosed to each other all factual and legal circumstances of which they knew or ought to have known at the date of conclusion of these Terms or the Contract and that are relevant in relation to their conclusion. Apart from the assurances given by the parties to each other in these Terms and/or the Contract, neither party shall have any further rights or duties in respect of any facts which come to light and about which the other party did not provide information at the time of negotiation. The exception will be cases where the party in question intentionally misled the other party as to their subject matter.
  15. If the Customer is a consumer, the provisions of these Terms deviating from the provisions of the Civil Code for consumer protection shall not apply.
  16. The Customer hereby expressly agrees to these Terms and declares that he/she/it has fully acquainted himself/herself/itself with their contents and that these Terms are binding on the Customer and form an integral part of any Contract concluded between the Supplier and the Customer.
