Terms and conditions
Version: September 2026
§ 1 Scope, contracting parties
(1) These terms apply to all contracts for the purchase of digital content that you conclude via the online shop sixtap.net with Altovate GmbH, Max-Planck-Str. 6, 54439 Saarburg, Germany, HRB 47822 Wittlich Local Court, Managing Director Alexander Buchmann (hereinafter "we").
(2) These terms apply to consumers (section 13 BGB) and to traders (section 14 BGB). Clauses that apply to only one group are marked as such.
(3) Deviating terms of the customer do not become part of the contract unless we expressly agree to them in writing.
§ 2 Subject matter
(1) We offer for sale: a set of six personalised STL files at 12.00 € including VAT, and a single replacement file at 4.50 € including VAT.
(2) The subject matter is exclusively digital content within the meaning of section 327 (2) BGB. There is no physical shipment. Printing is carried out by the customer on their own equipment.
(3) Independently of this contract we also provide free templates (cube, base, blank plates) for download without registration under the CC BY-NC 4.0 licence. Only the terms of that licence apply to them; these terms and conditions do not apply to the free download.
(4) The purchase additionally includes the QR code redirect described in § 7.
§ 3 Conclusion of contract
(1) The presentation of products in the shop is not a binding offer but an invitation to order.
(2) By completing the order process and clicking "order with obligation to pay", the customer makes a binding offer.
(3) The contract is concluded when we confirm receipt of payment by email, at the latest when the files are made available.
§ 4 Prices and payment
(1) All prices are final prices and include statutory VAT.
(2) For sales to consumers in the EU, electronically supplied services are subject to the destination principle (section 3a (5) UStG); VAT is declared and paid under the One Stop Shop procedure (section 18j UStG).
(3) For sales to traders holding a valid VAT identification number in another EU member state, invoicing is net; the reverse charge procedure applies.
(4) Payment is processed by the payment service provider Stripe. Their terms of use apply in addition.
(5) The purchase price is due immediately upon ordering.
§ 5 Provision
(1) The purchased files are made available for download in the customer account immediately after payment has been received in full.
(2) Consumers only: before completing the order, the customer expressly declares their consent to performance of the contract beginning before the withdrawal period expires, and their awareness that this causes the right of withdrawal to expire. Details are set out in the withdrawal policy.
§ 6 Right of use
(1) Upon payment in full, the customer receives a simple, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the purchased files for their own purposes, including use within their own business.
(2) Passing on, resale, rental or any other transfer of the files to third parties is excluded, whether for payment or free of charge. Passing on objects printed from the files as part of their intended use is permitted.
(3) All rights beyond this remain with us.
§ 7 QR code redirect
(1) Every purchased plate carries a QR code pointing to a short address operated by us. We forward requests to the destination stored by the customer and make the number of requests available to them.
(2) The customer can change the redirect destination at any time via their customer account.
(3) We guarantee operation of the redirect for a minimum period of five years from the date of purchase and will remedy errors and security vulnerabilities that become known within that period within a reasonable time.
(4) Should we discontinue the service permanently, we will give at least six months' notice by email to the address stored in the customer account. Within that period we will provide, on request, an export of the stored destinations and the scan counts.
(5) Force majeure and insolvency remain unaffected by paragraph 3.
§ 8 Defect rights
(1) If the customer is a consumer, the statutory provisions on contracts for digital products (sections 327 et seq. BGB) apply.
(2) If the customer is a trader, the provisions of sales law apply accordingly; the limitation period for claims based on defects is one year from provision.
§ 9 Liability and print result
(1) The subject of performance is exclusively the digital files. We do not supply printed parts and give no warranty for the print result.
(2) Print quality, choice of material, printer settings and the scannability of the printed code are the responsibility of the customer and depend on their printer, material and settings.
(3) Otherwise we are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence and under the German Product Liability Act. For slight negligence we are liable only for breach of material contractual obligations, limited to the damage typically foreseeable for this type of contract. Liability for damage arising from injury to life, body or health remains unaffected.
§ 10 Consumer dispute resolution
We are neither willing nor obliged to take part in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.
§ 11 Final provisions
(1) German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. For consumers, mandatory consumer protection provisions of the state of their habitual residence remain unaffected.
(2) If the customer is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the exclusive place of jurisdiction is Saarburg.
(3) Should individual provisions be invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions remains unaffected.
