TERMS

These Terms govern the collaboration between Studio ARTVÉA GmbH and its clients in connection with consulting, concept development and project-based product development.

They form the basis of all business relationships with Studio ARTVÉA GmbH unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing.

These Terms are provided for convenience. In case of discrepancies, the German version shall prevail.

1. Scope

These Terms apply to all business relationships between Studio ARTVÉA GmbH, represented by Managing Director Jens Christoph Noll, Hansjakobstraße 1, 78256 Steißlingen, Germany (hereinafter referred to as “Studio ARTVÉA”), and its clients.

Services are provided exclusively to businesses within the meaning of Section 14 of the German Civil Code (BGB). Contracts with consumers are not concluded.

Any differing or conflicting terms of the client shall only apply if expressly agreed in writing by Studio ARTVÉA.

These Terms shall also apply to future business relationships with the client without the need for renewed express inclusion.

2. Services

Studio ARTVÉA provides strategic consulting, concept development and design services in the fields of corporate fashion, textiles and brand-related product development.

Services may include, in particular, analysis, concept development, design development as well as the coordination and supervision of the development, production and delivery of individually developed products.

For the execution of projects, Studio ARTVÉA may collaborate with specialised external production and logistics partners.

The specific scope of services shall be defined in the respective proposal.

3. Project Development and Revisions

Services are provided within defined project phases, which may be specified in the respective proposal.

Revisions and adjustments are included within the agreed scope of services.

Requests for changes or additional services exceeding the agreed scope may be charged separately.

Designs, concepts and samples shall be deemed approved once confirmed by the client. Any modifications requested after approval may result in additional costs and adjustments to the project schedule.

Approvals by the client must be provided in text form.

4. Conclusion of Contract

A contract is concluded once a proposal issued by Studio ARTVÉA has been confirmed by the client in writing or in text form.

Proposals are non-binding unless explicitly designated as binding.

5. Fees and Payment Terms

All prices are exclusive of applicable value-added tax.

Studio ARTVÉA reserves the right to request advance payments. The amount of any advance payment shall be defined in the respective proposal.

Unless otherwise agreed, work shall commence only after receipt of payment.

6. Samples and Prototypes

During the product development process, Studio ARTVÉA may provide samples or prototypes for approval.

One final sample, including shipping, may be included in the project price unless otherwise agreed.

Additional samples, revisions or further prototypes may be charged separately.

7. Delivery

Delivery schedules are planned to the best of our knowledge and judgement.

Delays beyond the control of Studio ARTVÉA, in particular those caused by production partners, supply chains or logistics providers, shall not give rise to claims for damages.

Partial deliveries are permissible insofar as they are reasonable for the client.

Shipping and transport costs shall be charged separately unless otherwise agreed.

8. Client Responsibilities

The client shall provide all information, materials and approvals required for the execution of the project in a timely manner.

Delays resulting from missing or delayed client input may lead to adjustments to the project schedule.

All concepts, designs, drafts and creative work developed by Studio ARTVÉA are protected by copyright.

The agreed usage rights shall transfer to the client only after full payment of the agreed remuneration.

10. Portfolio Rights

Studio ARTVÉA reserves the right to document completed projects and present them for reference purposes in its portfolio, website, presentations or publications, unless otherwise agreed.

11. Liability

Studio ARTVÉA shall be liable for damages only in cases of intent or gross negligence, insofar as permitted by law.

Liability for indirect damages, consequential damages or loss of profit is excluded.

Liability under mandatory statutory provisions remains unaffected.

12. Confidentiality

Both parties undertake to treat all confidential information obtained in the course of the collaboration as strictly confidential.

This obligation shall remain in effect even after termination of the business relationship.

13. Final Provisions

These Terms shall be governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).

To the extent permitted by law, the place of jurisdiction shall be the registered seat of Studio ARTVÉA GmbH.

Should any provision of these Terms be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected.
