To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us
W. Wolff
Email: hello@pagebase.dev
of your decision to withdraw from this contract by an unequivocal statement (e.g., via email). You may use the attached model withdrawal form, but it is not obligatory.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
7.2 Effects of Withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, without undue delay and at the latest within fourteen days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
If you requested that the services begin during the withdrawal period, you shall pay us an amount which is in proportion to what has been provided until you have communicated to us your withdrawal from this contract, in comparison with the full coverage of the contract.
7.3 Expiry of the Right of Withdrawal
The right of withdrawal expires for a contract for the provision of services if the Provider has fully performed the service and only began performance after the consumer gave express consent and simultaneously acknowledged that they would lose their right of withdrawal upon complete performance of the contract.

In case of cancellation by entrepreneurs or after expiry of the withdrawal period before work has begun, the full amount will be refunded minus an administrative fee of €25.
8.2 After Work Commences
After website creation has begun, refunds will be made proportionally based on services already rendered. A minimum of 30% of the creation price is due for concept work already performed. This does not apply to consumers exercising their right of withdrawal pursuant to § 7.
8.3 Hosting Refunds
Hosting fees already paid will not be refunded on a pro-rata basis upon ordinary termination. The website will remain online until the end of the paid period. When consumers exercise their right of withdrawal, a pro-rata refund will be made for the unused period.
§ 9 Defect Claims and Warranty

(1) The Provider warrants that the created website complies with the agreed requirements and is free from defects that eliminate or reduce its value or fitness for purpose.
(2) Defects must be reported to the Provider in writing immediately upon discovery.
(3) In the event of a defect, the Provider has the right to subsequent performance. The Provider may, at its discretion, either remedy the defect or provide new, defect-free performance.
(4) If subsequent performance fails, the Customer may, at their discretion, demand a reduction of the remuneration or withdraw from the contract. Subsequent performance is deemed to have failed after the second unsuccessful attempt.
(5) The warranty period is two years for consumers and one year for entrepreneurs, commencing from acceptance of the website.
9.2 Hosting (Service Contract)
For hosting, the statutory warranty provisions for service contracts apply. The Provider owes the availability of hosting services in accordance with § 2.2.
§ 10 Liability
10.1 Limitation of Liability
(1) The Provider shall be fully liable for damages arising from injury to life, body, or health, as well as for damages caused intentionally or through gross negligence.

(3) Otherwise, liability for slight negligence is excluded.
(4) The above limitations of liability apply to consumers only to the extent permitted by law.
10.2 Hosting Availability
The Provider endeavours to achieve server availability of 99%. Short-term outages for maintenance work or due to force majeure shall not give rise to any liability.
10.3 Customer Content
The Customer is solely responsible for the legality of the content provided by the Customer.
§ 11 Data Protection
The collection and processing of personal data is carried out in accordance with our Privacy Policy. The processing of personal data for contract fulfilment is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.
§ 12 Final Provisions
12.1 Applicable Law
The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). For consumers with habitual residence in the EU, mandatory consumer protection provisions of their country of residence remain unaffected.
12.2 Place of Jurisdiction
If the Customer is a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law, the place of jurisdiction shall be Berlin. For consumers, the statutory jurisdiction rules apply.
