SCHOLTES CONSUMER AG undertakes that each recipient shall be aware of the leading principles of personal data protection and shall be subject to them in application of the law and/or a specific contract.

The Website and its content are supplied “as is” with no guarantees, particularly in terms of future performance. SCHOLTES CONSUMER AG excludes all guarantees insofar as the law allows. To this end, SCHOLTES CONSUMER AG in no way guarantees in particular that the Website will be accessible at all times or will be free from errors and/or flaws.
