‍(2) The product inquiries posted or communicated are a binding offer by the customer to the above-mentioned contractual partner.

(3) All payments by customers to remunerate product orders shall be made on the basis of a separate payment service agreement between Dr. SAM Germany GmbH, the product partner and the payment service provider.

(4) Additional costs (for example shipping costs) may be required at the time of purchase. These are shown in the shopping cart before purchase and depend on the delivery location. Shipping to Germany costs 2,95€, to Austria 3,95€ and to France 4,95€.

13. transaction and subscription

(1) When you purchase a subscription to the Services or the Products (such purchase, a "Transaction"), you expressly authorize us (or our third party payment processor) to bill you for that Transaction. We may ask you to provide additional information relevant to your Transaction, including your credit card number, credit card expiration date, and your billing and notification email and postal addresses (such information, "Payment Information"). You represent and warrant that you are legally authorized to use all payment methods represented by such Payment Information. When you initiate a transaction, you authorize us to share your Order Information and Payment Information with third parties so that we may complete your transaction and charge your payment method for the transaction type you select (plus any applicable taxes and other fees). You may be required to provide additional information to verify your identity before you can complete your transaction (such information is included in the definition of Payment Information).

(2) In the case of a Subscription, the monthly Subscription Fee plus all applicable taxes and other fees ("Subscription Fee") will be billed to you on the date you purchase the Subscription and each period thereafter (as described in the Order). By purchasing a Subscription, you authorize us to initiate recurring, non-refundable payments as set forth below. If you purchase a Subscription, we (or our third-party payment processor) will automatically charge you using the payment information you provide as of the Effective Date until you cancel your Subscription. By agreeing to these Terms and choosing to purchase a Subscription, you acknowledge that your Subscription has recurring payment features and you accept responsibility for all recurring payment obligations prior to cancellation of your Subscription.

(3) The subscription has an initial term as specified during the purchase process for the Dr. SAM subscription. If the customer selects the regular delivery of goods from Dr. SAM at the interval selected by the customer (e.g. monthly delivery) during the ordering process, the customer submits a legally binding offer to conclude a purchase contract for the regular delivery of the goods in question by clicking on the "BUY NOW" button. The delivery of the selected goods/goods by Dr. SAM takes place regularly at the interval selected by the customer. The contract shall run for an indefinite period. The customer may terminate the contract up to two days before the next scheduled regular delivery with effect for the next delivery after the interval selected by the customer. To cancel, click on "Cancel" at www.drsam.de. From one day before the next scheduled regular delivery, the contract can only be canceled for the following delivery. Dr. SAM may also terminate the contract at any time with effect from the next delivery scheduled after the interval selected by the customer.

14. membership

(1) Through the Video Vet Subscription, a User may book any number of online consultations with Dr. SAM for the duration of the initial term agreed upon during registration, as long as the fair use rule applies. If YOU have booked a single consultation, you will not have the benefits of the Video Vet Subscription and will not have any number of online consultations included. The fair-use rules are intended to provide a sustainable way to ensure that all subscribers can get quick and easy consultation help. Dr. SAM wants to provide every member with an immediate consultation with a veterinarian in case of a health problem.

A violation of the fair use rules occurs if a subscriber uses the offer excessively. To determine such a violation, the use of the offer by the affected subscriber is compared with comparison groups. The subscriber will be informed if, contrary to expectations, an existing and continuing overuse is determined. Termination will only occur after prior notice of overuse. The option to terminate the contract is a last resort to protect the community of subscribers from cost increases.

A violation of the fair use rules shall further exist if the advice intended with the inquiries obviously does not offer sufficient prospect of success and appears to be wanton. Willfulness exists if an average subscriber would refrain from seeking emergency advice (initial advice) if he or she were to make a reasonable assessment of all the circumstances.

Requests that are futile and hypothetical from the outset also constitute a violation of the fair use rules if they occur repeatedly. All violations of any of the fair use rules constitute grounds for extraordinary termination. The termination refers only to the subscription. The user may thereafter continue to book individual consultations with Dr. SAM.

(2) Standard consultations according to the GOT are included in the Video Vet subscription. Special services that are very time-consuming for our veterinarians, such as second opinions (on blood work, x-rays, etc.) and special consultations(e.g. nutritional counseling, behavioral counseling...) are not included in the subscription. For more information, please visit https://www.bundestieraerztekammer.de/tieraerzte/beruf/got/.

(3) The subscription is basically animal-bound. Excepted are explicitly booked extensions/upgrades that extend the membership to multiple animals. We require the payment of a fee for the use of the Services (or certain parts thereof) and you agree to pay these fees. If you wish to upgrade your subscription to include an animal, please contact us in chat.

(4) The subscription has a monthly, quarterly or annual initial term, as specified during the registration for the Dr. SAM subscription. Thereafter, it shall continue indefinitely. It can be canceled at any time with one month's notice. To cancel a subscription, click on "Cancel" at www.drsam.de.

(5) Termination by Dr. SAM is possible at any time in case of misuse of the membership.

(6) Any free trial period/right of revocation for members expires as soon as a member books and attends the first appointment.

15. cancellation policy 

(1) Right of withdrawal: You have the right to withdraw from the contract concluded with the subscription within fourteen days without giving any reason. The revocation period is fourteen days from the day on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, has or has taken possession of the goods.

To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us Dr.SAM, Rethelstraße 47,40237 Düsseldorf, by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. 

In order to comply with the withdrawal period, it is sufficient that you send the notification of the exercise of the right of withdrawal before the expiry of the withdrawal period.

(2) Consequences of revocation: If you revoke this contract, we shall reimburse you all payments we have received from you, including delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs resulting from the fact that you have chosen a type of delivery other than the most favorable standard delivery offered by us), without undue delay and no later than within fourteen days from the day on which we received the notification of your revocation of this contract. For this repayment, we will use the same means of payment that you used for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; in no case will you be charged any fees because of this repayment. We can refuse the repayment until we have received the goods back or until you have provided proof that you have returned the goods, whichever is the earlier.

You must return or hand over the goods to us immediately and in any case no later than within fourteen days from the day on which you notify us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is met if you send the goods before the expiry of the period of fourteen days. We will bear the cost of returning the goods.

You only have to pay for any loss of value of the goods if this loss of value is due to the handling of the goods which is not necessary for the inspection of the condition, properties and functioning of the goods.

(3) Excluded from the revocation: A return of our goods is possible for hygienic reasons only if the goods are in the closed original packaging in new condition.

Within a concluded product subscription, the first delivery can be returned free of charge within the statutory cancellation period. From the second delivery on, a return as well as a refund is no longer possible.
