General Terms and Conditions

These General Terms and Conditions (GTC) apply to all contracts between Jan Albrecht (Web Loop), Hamburg — hereinafter referred to as "Contractor" — and the respective client for the provision of web design, development and related digital services.

Deviating conditions of the client shall have no validity unless the Contractor expressly agrees to them in writing.

A contract is formed upon written order confirmation by the Contractor or upon commencement of service delivery.

Offers by the Contractor are non-binding unless expressly designated as binding.

The scope of services is defined by the respective project offer or service description. Changes or extensions to the scope of services require a written agreement and may result in adjustments to price and delivery date.

The Contractor is entitled to engage third parties to provide partial services.

Prototypes and preview versions (Previews) are provided exclusively for the purpose of viewing and decision-making by the client. They do not constitute a finished or accepted deliverable and remain the property of the Contractor (Web Loop) until full payment of the agreed remuneration has been received. Preview links are hosted via Vercel and remain accessible for a maximum of 5 days from the date of provision. An extension is possible upon request.

The client is obligated to provide all information, materials and access required for the execution of the project in a timely manner.

Delays caused by insufficient cooperation from the client shall not be attributed to the Contractor. Additional work caused by subsequent change requests will be charged separately.

The agreed remuneration is payable net plus applicable value-added tax. Payments are due within 14 days of invoicing without deduction.

In case of payment default, the Contractor is entitled to charge interest at the statutory rate. The Contractor reserves the right to withhold services until outstanding invoices are settled.

All works created by the Contractor (designs, code, texts, etc.) are protected by copyright. Upon full payment of the agreed remuneration, the Contractor grants the client a simple, non-transferable right of use for the agreed purpose.

The Contractor retains the right to use the services rendered for reference purposes in its portfolio.

The Contractor warrants that the services rendered are free from material defects at the time of delivery. The client is obligated to report defects immediately, at the latest within 14 days of delivery, in writing.

The warranty period is 12 months from acceptance. Modifications made by the client to the deliverable exclude warranty claims for the modified area.

The Contractor is liable without limitation only in cases of intent and gross negligence. In cases of slight negligence, the Contractor is only liable for breach of essential contractual obligations and only up to the amount of typically foreseeable damage.

Liability for indirect damages, lost profits or data loss is excluded to the extent permitted by law.

Both parties undertake to keep all confidential information obtained from the other party in the course of their cooperation secret and not to disclose it to third parties.

This obligation also applies after termination of the contractual relationship.

The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies. Place of performance and jurisdiction is Hamburg, provided the client is a merchant.

Should individual provisions of these GTC be invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected.
