- If goods are delivered with obvious damage caused during transport, please report the damage to the carrier as soon as possible and inform us at hey@northe-artisans.com.

12. LIABILITY
- We shall be liable without limitation in cases of intent or gross negligence and for damages arising from injury to life, limb or health.
- In the event of a slightly negligent breach of a material contractual obligation, our liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract at the time the contract was concluded. Material contractual obligations are obligations whose fulfilment is essential for the proper performance of the contract and on whose fulfilment the contracting parties may regularly rely.
- The limitations of liability set out above do not apply if we have fraudulently concealed a defect, provided a guarantee or if mandatory statutory liability applies, particularly under the German Product Liability Act.

- If the customer is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, Hamburg shall be the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from the contractual relationship. The same applies if a business does not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany. Mandatory statutory places of jurisdiction remain unaffected.
