4.1 Customers intending to place orders at the Online Shop must first register to use the Online Shop.

4.2 The fundamental requirement for registering is that the Customer is of age and has full legal capacity.

4.4 By sending off the completed registration form, the Customer is submitting a proposal to conclude an agreement on accessing and using the Online Shop. Subsequently, the Customer will be sent a confirmation by email containing personal access data. This confirmation email constitutes Budrich’s acceptance of the Customer’s proposal. In this way, an agreement on the use of the Online Shop will be formed.

4.5 Budrich is entitled to turn down individual registrations for the Online Shop without stating any reasons.

4.6 The Purchase of digital products (eBooks, eJournals) and subscriptions in general is only allowed for natural persons. Institutional users and legal persons please contact Barbara Budrich Publishers (info[at]budrich.de) directly.

5.1 The access data (email address and password, or user name and password) are exclusively for the Customer’s own personal use. The Customer may not pass on or otherwise disclose his or her access data to third parties. If the Customer obtains knowledge of any misuse of access data, or simply suspects such misuse, he or she must immediately report this to Budrich. The Customer shall be liable for all consequences of third-party use insofar as he or she is responsible for access data being misused. This may include having to pay for any orders placed without authorisation.

12.2 Cardinal duties are those contractual duties, performance of which enables due implementation of the contract in the first place and which the contractual partner fundamentally may rely on being performed, and the breach of which jeopardises attainment of the very purpose of the contract.
