Terms of service, platform "buphi.net"
General
The book portal of the platform "www.buphi.net" offers suppliers of books and brochures the possibility to distribute their works professionally and economically via the internet. "Buphi.net" only ensures the general technical operation, while the entire order processing is managed by the respective shop operators (authors, institutions or associations) on their own responsibility or is contractually agreed with them. The responsibility for the order processing therefore lies solely with the shop operator (book provider), consequently buphi.net also does not assume any mediation in the event of disputes between customers and shop operators, as agreed in a separate contract between buphi.net and its customers.The following general terms and conditions apply, unless they have been specified in more detail by the respective shop operator.
Restrictions on digital products
The products offered for sale may be provided in various formats, which in turn may be subject to special restrictions. All products are subject to copyright © or trademark law ® and are generally only released for your private use. The same applies to all further copies of the purchased digital product on your private computers. Your purchase/acquisiti)on of electronic files does not authorise you to pass them on to third parties. All digital products are therefore electronically marked in order to identify any infringements.
. pdf (ebook)
The acquired PDF data are generally encrypted and locked against changes. The restrictions stored in the acquired file concern in particular the prevented copying of individual objects or text passages, as well as a deactivated print function.
.epub (ebook)
Files in this format technically allow the contents to be copied, printed or subsequently changed. There are therefore no special restrictions for your private use.
. jpg, tif (Image files)
Files in this format technically allow the contents to be copied, printed or subsequently changed. There are therefore no special restrictions for your private use.
. mp4, ... (videofiles)
Files in this format technically allow the contents to be copied, printed or subsequently changed. There are therefore no special restrictions for your private use.
User account, standard (private)
Private customers select a desired item type, specify its quantity in the shopping basket, select the shipping and payment method and finally enter their current address data.For booksellers or other customers of digital products, there is no separate option to specify their customer status (i.e. their customer group) more precisely. All customers who are interested in purchasing online articles and open a user account for this purpose are treated as private customers. In principle, they do not receive any special price discounts.
Private orders are checked for plausibility by the shop administration before further processing. In the event of data constellations that appear unusual, the shop operators reserve the right to enquire by telephone or to delete the data.
Other customer groups (e.g. "For TOE-Modell®)
In some shops, separate user accounts are available for ordering goods. Special terms of use apply here and must be specifically observed. The special user conditions are presented and described when a user account is opened. They are considered accepted when an account has been created and confirmed via the Dobble-In procedure. All user data will only be used within the book portal and will not be passed on to outsiders. In this context, please also note the information in the data protection regulations.

By sending the order by clicking on the button provided for this purpose, the customer declares the legally binding acceptance of the offer. This concludes the purchase contract. In the case of the payment option via payment service providers such as "PayPal" or Sofortüberweisung, the customer will be redirected from our online shop to the website of the provider PayPal. After entering all the necessary payment data, the customer is finally redirected back to our shop.

The purchased articles are then available in the user account as download articles.
In the event of delivery obstacles occurring at short notice, you will be informed immediately and free of charge by the respective shop operator via the tracking system by email.
