General Terms and Conditions

Status: June 2026

Part 1:
General Provisions
for the Online Shop


1.1 Scope of Application


For the business relationship between Ihr Hoflieferant (Peter Hoffmann) and the customer, the following General Terms and Conditions in their German version valid at the time of the conclusion of the contract (order) shall apply exclusively. Deviating conditions of the customer are not recognized unless expressly agreed to in writing.

barocktanz.com, Ihr Hoflieferant, and The Brand - Fachverlag are trade names of Peter Hoffmann. Tanja Amalia Couture is the trade name of Tanja Hoffmann.


1.2 Product Safety and Reporting Obligations
according to Regulation (EU) 2023/988 (GPSR)


The online shop primarily serves the distribution of self-published sheet music, music, dance literature, as well as the processing of events. Compliance with general product safety guidelines is sought for all offered products. In the context of Regulation (EU) 2023/988 (General Product Safety Regulation), we ensure that customers can inform themselves about the safety of the offered products and report any safety-related issues directly.

The person responsible for product safety is Peter Hoffmann. All safety-related inquiries, complaints, or reports regarding our products should be addressed directly to our customer service at info@barocktanz.com or by mail to Peter Hoffmann, Helmplatz 1, 90762 Fürth. The assortment is continuously checked for compliance with legal documentation requirements. Products for which seamless documentation according to GPSR specifications cannot be guaranteed due to capacity reasons will be removed from the offer.


1.3 Ordering Process, Offer, and Acceptance


The presentation of goods and digital content in the shop constitutes an invitation to submit an offer. A binding order is placed when the "Order with obligation to pay" (Zahlungspflichtig bestellen) button is clicked during the order process. Upon receipt, the customer receives an automated order confirmation via email. This does not yet constitute an acceptance of the offer. There is no entitlement to the conclusion of a contract; the offer can be rejected without providing reasons. The contract can exclusively be concluded in the German language.


1.4 Time of Contract Conclusion


For Goods

The contract is concluded with the dispatch confirmation via email or by the delivery of the goods.

For Digital Content

The contract is concluded upon downloading the file. Consumers must explicitly agree prior to execution that execution will begin before the expiry of the withdrawal period, thereby waiving their statutory right of withdrawal.


1.5 Right of Use and Availability
of Digital Content


The customer is granted a simple right of use exclusively for private purposes. barocktanz.com retains all copyright and usage rights to the products and prohibits the use of the media in public performances without express written permission. Copies and printouts may not be passed on and must be collected again after use in the ensemble. The use of graphics/reproductions in publications is prohibited (for scientific purposes only with detailed source attribution). Digital content is provided in the form of a license for download or streaming for 30 days. We advise downloading and securing these immediately.


1.6 Delivery, Retention of Title, and Liability for Defects


Delivery takes place at the time specified in the product description. The products remain our property until full payment is received. The customer is entitled to statutory warranty rights for defects. Separate regulations apply to entrepreneurs according to § 377 HGB (duty of inspection and objection); here, the limitation period for defect claims for newly manufactured items is one year from the transfer of risk. The sale of used goods to entrepreneurs is subject to the exclusion of any warranty.


1.7 Limitation of Liability


barocktanz.com is fully liable in cases of intent and gross negligence. In cases of simple negligence, liability exists only for injury to life, body, health, or an essential contractual obligation (cardinal duty). In the latter case, liability is limited to foreseeable damages typical for the contract. This also applies to legal representatives and vicarious agents.


1.8 Final Provisions


German law applies, to the exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). Mandatory provisions of the country in which the customer habitually resides remain unaffected. If the customer is a merchant or a legal entity under public law, our place of business is the place of jurisdiction. We do not participate in alternative dispute resolution procedures (Link to the ODR platform: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/).


Part 2:
Special Provisions for Events


2.1 Scope of Application for Events


These specific provisions apply to all dance events, balls, picnics, dance seminars, or other events (summarized as "Events") planned, organized, and/or executed by barocktanz.com.


2.2 Registration and Participation Fee


Registration is binding for a period of 5 days upon receipt. Registrations are processed according to the date of receipt. The prices stated in the portals are total prices including all taxes. Travel, accommodation, and (unless advertised otherwise) meals are not included in the participation fee. The fee is due upon receipt of the participation confirmation.


2.3 Conclusion of Contract, Withdrawal, and Cancellation for Events


Before reaching the minimum number of participants

The statutory withdrawal period of 14 days applies (§ 355 BGB).

After reaching the minimum number of participants

The purchase contract is considered mutually concluded. From this point on, there is no right of withdrawal or return (§§ 312c in conjunction with 312g Abs. 2 Nr. 9 BGB). Sold admission tickets are fundamentally not taken back or exchanged. No compensation is provided for expired tickets.

Ordering Errors

The organizer is not liable for accidental incorrect or double orders. The purchaser remains liable in the event of failure to cancel in due time.


2.4 Execution, Modifications, and Cancellations


We reserve the right to make minor changes to the schedule or a change of speaker for an important reason (illness, force majeure). Such changes do not entitle the return of admission tickets.

We are entitled to cancel an event up to 14 days in advance due to an insufficient number of participants or due to force majeure (e.g., extreme weather conditions, pandemics, official regulations). This also applies to indirect cancellations. If an open-air event is aborted after more than 40 minutes of performance due to weather, the service is deemed to have been rendered. In all cases of cancellation or termination due to force majeure, there is no entitlement to a refund of the admission price or other expenses/damages (incl. ticket fees).


2.5 Rights to Course Materials


Distributed documents, slides, pictures, and materials are protected by copyright. The customer is granted a simple, non-transferable right for personal use. Reproductions are prohibited.


Part 3:
Payment Providers & Payment Terms


All prices are total prices. Any freight or delivery costs arise from the product description. Additional customs duties may apply for deliveries to non-EU countries. The price is due upon conclusion of the contract.

Depending on the service, we offer the following payment options (the service providers act independently in terms of data protection):

PayPal

You will be redirected to PayPal after ordering (payment also possible without your own account).

Advance Payment Invoice

You will receive an invoice with a 14-day payment term. Dispatch takes place after receipt of payment.

Direct Debit

When paying by direct debit (only German bank accounts), you consent to the debiting by us.


Part 4:
Cancellation Policy & Cancellation Form


If the customer is a consumer, they have the following right of withdrawal (does not apply to entrepreneurs and not to events after the minimum number of participants has been reached):


Right of Withdrawal


You have the right to withdraw from this contract within fourteen days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period is fourteen days from the day on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, has taken possession of the first goods. To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (see Contact) of your decision to withdraw from this contract by an unequivocal statement (e.g., a letter sent by post or an email). You may use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose.


Consequences of Withdrawal


We shall reimburse to you all payments received from you (including standard delivery costs) without undue delay and in any event not later than fourteen days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction. We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods. You shall bear the direct cost of returning the goods.


Exclusion or Premature Expiration of the Right of Withdrawal


The right of withdrawal expires prematurely for contracts concerning the delivery of sealed goods which are not suitable for return due to health protection or hygiene reasons (Note: Our wigs are provided with a hygiene seal. Withdrawal is excluded as soon as this seal is broken or removed).

Furthermore, the right of withdrawal does not apply to custom-made goods, unsealed audio/video recordings, or software, as well as newspapers/magazines (except subscriptions).
