Advantages of standard terms and conditions
The utilisation of standard terms and conditions offers numerous advantages in the business relations with customers. By using standard terms and conditions, recurring contractual terms can be generalised and be included in the contractual relations by means of a general reference.
Furthermore, standard terms and conditions allow their user to deviate from the statutory provisions, within the limits of that which is permitted by law. Going beyond this, standard terms and conditions on websites are often intended to make customers aware of rules and legal framework conditions, in order to be able to invoke the valid agreement on standard terms and conditions in case of disputes.
Prerequisites for the validity of standard terms and conditions
A prerequisite for the application of standard terms and conditions on the internet is their valid incorporation into the contracts which are usually entered into online. The issue of the effective incorporation often is not sufficiently taken into consideration. We strongly recommend not to blindly copy third-party standard terms and conditions without legal assessment. Such terms are often outdated and were compiled without, or with inadequate, legal advice.
