Terms of service
General Terms and Conditions (“GTC”)
1.Validity of the GTC
These GTC apply to all contracts concluded between APG Allergosan Pharma GmbH and a consumer, via the online shop at shop.omni-biotic.com
A consumer within the meaning of the GTC is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction with an objective which cannot be attributed to his or her commercial or self-employed activities. (Hereinafter referred to as “Customer” or “Consumer”).
2. Aknowledgment of the GTC
The customer acknowledges these GTC, in the version applicable at the time of submitting the order and agrees to them as soon as the respective order is placed.
3. Conclusion of the Contract
a. Internet Presence of APG Allergosan Pharma GmbH
The product presentation on the website does not represent a binding offer in the legal sense. It is an invitation to the customer to submit an offer personally. The offer in the legal sense is submitted by you, as the customer, when placing the order by clicking on the “Buy now” button after completing the ordering process in full. You remain bound to this order for two weeks, i.e., the contract is bindingly concluded when we accept your order within this period. An automated email will confirm receipt of the order directly after you have submitted it. We will confirm acceptance of the contract in a separate email as soon as the products have left our warehouse (with a shipping or order confirmation) or at the latest upon delivery of the products.
b. Ordering Process
The purchase contract is concluded with APG Allergosan Pharma GmbH. By clicking on the “Add to basket” button, the customer can select the product(s) from the overview of the online shop's range at shop.omni-biotic.com. The selected products will be stored in the basket temporarily while the customer is visiting the website at shop.omni-biotic.com. The ordering process is continued by clicking on the “Proceed to checkout” button next to the products listed in the basket. On the next page, the customer will be asked to log into the online shop, if they already have an account, or to register or to proceed as a guest. Then, the customer selects their desired billing address, delivery method and delivery address. The customer then selects their desired payment method and inputs the details required to process the payment. When selecting external payments services such as PayPal, the customer will be transferred to the external website of the respective payment service provider. Prior to submitting the order, the details relevant to the order will be summarised in an “Order overview”. The customer can still check their information in the order overview once more and correct it if needed, before sending their order to APG Allergosan Pharma GmbH by clicking on the “Buy now” button. By clicking on the “Buy now” button, the customer submits a binding purchase offer in relation to their chosen products.
c. Order Confirmation
After receiving the order, APG Allergosan Pharma GmbH will send a notification email to the email address indicated by the customer to confirm receipt of the order and its content (referred to as “order confirmation” below). The order confirmation does not represent APG Allergosan Pharma GmbH’s acceptance of the customer’s purchase offer. If APG Allergosan Pharma GmbH refuses to conclude the contract, then this will be disclosed to the customer immediately by email.
4. Storage of the Contract Text
The contract text, i.e., the customer’s information for the ordering process, will be stored by APG Allergosan Pharma GmbH and can be viewed by the customer using the “My account” link under “My orders”. Notwithstanding the above, APG Allergosan Pharma GmbH will send an order confirmation and these GTC to the email address provided by the customer.

10. Rights of cancellation (right of rescission)
10.1. CANCELLATION POLICY
As a consumer, you have a legal right of revocation when concluding a distance selling transaction and we will explain this to you below:
Right of cancellation
You have the right to revoke this contract within 30 days without specifying any reasons. The revocation period is 30 days from the date on which you or a third party nominated by you, who is not the carrier, has/have taken ownership of the products.
To exercise your right of revocation, you must inform us by means of a clear declaration (e.g., a letter sent by post, fax, or email) about your decision to revoke this contract. You can use the enclosed revocation form template, but this is not a requirement.
APG Allergosan Pharma GmbH
Gmeinstraße 13
AT-8055 Graz
Tel.: +43 316 405 305
Fax: +43 316 405 305 20
Email: global@omni-biotic.com
To comply with the revocation period, it is sufficient for you to send the communication on exercising your right of revocation prior to the end of the revocation period.
Consequences of cancellation
If you revoke this contract, we must reimburse you for all payments that we received from you, including the shipping costs (except for the additional costs due to you choosing a delivery method different to the cheapest standard delivery offered by us) immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the date on which the communication on your revocation of this contract is received by us.
If you have ordered multiple products and assert your legal right of revocation in respect of only a part of the products, then you must bear the amount of the shipping costs that would have been due if you had ordered only the products remaining in your possession. We will refund you using the same payment method as the one used by you in the original transaction, unless it has been expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will in no way be charged a fee for the refund. We may refuse to refund the amount until we have received the products or until you provide proof that you have sent back the products, depending on which is the earliest. You must return or send the products immediately and, in any case, no later than 14 days from the date on which you informed us about the revocation of this contract to:

AT-8055 Graz
Tel.: +43 316 405 305
Fax: +43 316 405 305 20
Email: global@omni-biotic.com
The deadline is met when you send the products prior to the end of the 14-day period. The rights of revocation or withdrawal are excluded if, in the case of sealed products, the seal has been damaged and/or removed following delivery.
In the case of revocation, you shall bear the direct costs of the return; this applies to returns within Austria and for returns from abroad.
You must only pay for any loss in value of the products if this loss in value is attributed to handling by you that is not required for checking the quality, properties and functioning of the products.
