Terms of service
OVERVIEW
This website is operated by MeiArt GmbH. Throughout the document, the terms “we”, “us” and “our” refer to MeiArt GmbH (owner of the brand Seccorell®).
MeiArt GmbH operates this shop and this website, including all related information, content, functions, tools, products, and services, to provide you, the customer, with an individual shopping experience (the “Services”).
The following terms and conditions, together with the policies mentioned herein (these “Terms of Service” or “Terms”) describe your rights and obligations when using the Services.
Please read these Terms of Service carefully as they contain important information about your legal rights and cover topics such as warranty disclaimers and limitations of liability.
By visiting, interacting with, or using our Services, you agree to these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy [LINK]. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service or the Privacy Policy, you may not use or access our Services.
SECTION 1 – ACCESS AND ACCOUNT
By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you represent that you are of legal age in the state or region where you reside and have given us your consent to allow any of your minor dependents to use the Services on devices that you own, have purchased, or manage.
To use the Services, including accessing or navigating our online shops or purchasing products or services we offer, you may be asked to provide certain information, such as your email address and billing, payment, and delivery information. You represent and warrant that all information you provide in our shops is accurate, current, and complete and that you are fully authorized to provide this information.
You alone are responsible for the security of your account login data and for all activities on your account. You may not transfer, sell, assign, or license your account to any other person.
SECTION 2 – OUR PRODUCTS
We have made every effort to display our products and services in our online shops as accurately as possible. However, we point out that colors or the appearance of the products may differ from the colors displayed on your screen due to the device you use to access the shop and its settings and configuration.
We do not warrant that the appearance or quality of the products or services you purchase will meet your expectations or match the representations in our online shops.
All product descriptions are subject to change at any time without notice at our sole discretion. We reserve the right to discontinue products at any time and to limit the quantities of products we offer to any person, in any geographic region, or within any jurisdiction on a case-by-case basis.
Section 3 – ORDERS
By placing an order, you are making an offer to purchase. Seccorell reserves the right to accept or reject your order at its sole discretion for any reason. Your order is not considered accepted until confirmed by Seccorell. A prerequisite for the acceptance of your order is the receipt and processing of your payment. Please check your order carefully before submitting it, as Seccorell may no longer be able to consider cancellation requests after an order has been accepted. If we do not accept, modify, or cancel an order, we will attempt to notify you via the email address, billing address, and/or phone number provided at the time of the order.
The return or exchange of your purchases is exclusively in accordance with our return policy.
You represent and warrant that your purchases are for your personal use or household use and not for commercial resale or export.
SECTION 4 – PRICING AND BILLING
Prices, discounts, and special offers are subject to change without notice. The price charged for a product or service is the price in effect at the time the order is placed and will be stated in the order confirmation you receive by email. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, stated prices do not include taxes, shipping, handling, customs, or import duties.
Prices stated in our online shops may differ from prices in brick-and-mortar stores or in online shops or other shops operated by third parties. We may offer promotions for the Services from time to time that may affect pricing and for which terms and conditions other than these Terms apply. In the event of inconsistencies between the terms of a promotion and these Terms of Service, the terms of the promotion shall prevail.
You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate purchase, payment, and account information for all purchases made in our shops. You agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address, credit card numbers, and expiration dates, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you if necessary.
You represent and warrant that (i) the credit card information you provide is true, accurate, and complete, (ii) you are authorized to use such credit card for the purchase, (iii) the costs incurred by you will be covered by your credit card company, and (iv) you will pay the costs incurred by you at the stated prices, including shipping and handling fees and all applicable taxes.
SECTION 5 – SHIPPING AND DELIVERY
We are not liable for shipping and delivery delays. All delivery times are estimates only and are not guaranteed. We are not responsible for delays caused by shipping service providers, customs processing, or events outside our control. Once we have handed over the products to the shipping service provider, title and risk of loss pass to you.
SECTION 6 – INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Our Services, including but not limited to all marks, trademarks, texts, representations, images, graphics, product reviews, video and audio files and their design, selection, and arrangement, are the property of Seccorell, its affiliates, or licensors and are protected by US and foreign patent, copyright, and other intellectual property laws.
These Terms of Service permit you to use the Services for personal, non-commercial purposes only. Without our prior written consent, you may not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, republish, download, store, or transmit the material in the Services. Unless expressly provided herein, no provision of these Terms of Service grants you a license or other rights to patents, trademarks, copyrights, or other intellectual property of Seccorell, Shopify, or third parties, nor can such a grant be inferred from these provisions. Unauthorized use of the Services may constitute a violation of federal and state intellectual property laws. All rights not expressly granted herein are reserved by Seccorell.
The names, logos, product and service names, designs, and slogans of Seccorell are trademarks of Seccorell or its affiliates or licensors. You may not use these marks without the prior written permission of Seccorell. The name, logo, product and service names, designs, and slogans of Shopify are trademarks of Shopify. All other names, logos, product and service names, designs, and slogans on the Services are the trademarks of their respective owners.
SECTION 7 – OPTIONAL TOOLS
You may be provided with access to customer tools offered by third-party providers as part of the Services, which we neither monitor nor control or influence.
You acknowledge and agree that we provide access to such tools “as is” and “as available” without any warranties, representations, or conditions of any kind and without any endorsement. We disclaim any liability arising from or in connection with the use of optional third-party tools.
The use of optional tools offered via the website is entirely at your own risk and discretion. You are responsible for familiarizing yourself with and accepting the terms and conditions under which the tools are provided by the respective third-party providers.
We may also offer new features through the Services in the future (including the release of new tools and resources). Such new features shall also be considered part of the Services and are subject to these Terms of Service.
SECTION 8 – THIRD-PARTY LINKS
The Services may contain materials and hyperlinks to websites provided or operated by third parties (including any embedded third-party features). We are not responsible for examining or evaluating the content or accuracy of third-party materials or websites you access at your own discretion. If you decide to leave the Services to access these third-party materials or websites, you do so at your own risk.
We are not liable for any damages or losses incurred by your access to third-party websites or by the purchase or use of products, services, resources, or content on third-party websites. You should carefully review the policies and procedures of the third party and ensure you understand them before conducting a transaction. Complaints, claims, concerns, or questions regarding third-party products and services should be directed to the respective third party.
SECTION 9 – RELATIONSHIP WITH SHOPIFY
[NOTE FOR MERCHANTS: This section accurately characterizes Shopify's relationship with your shop and should not be removed or changed].
Seccorell is powered by Shopify, which allows us to provide the Services to you. However, all sales and purchases you make in our shop are concluded directly with Seccorell. By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree that Shopify is not responsible for any aspects of the business between you and Seccorell, including injuries, damages, or losses caused by purchased products and services. You hereby expressly release Shopify and its affiliates from all liability for all claims, damages, and liabilities arising out of or in connection with your purchases and transactions with Seccorell.
SECTION 10 – PRIVACY POLICY
All personal data we collect via the Services is subject to our Privacy Policy, which can be viewed. Additionally, certain personal data may be subject to Shopify's Privacy Policy, which can be viewed here. By using the Services, you confirm that you have read these privacy policies.
Because the Services are hosted by Shopify, Shopify collects and processes personal data about your access to and use of the Services to provide and improve the Services for you. Data you submit to the Services will be shared with Shopify as well as third-party providers who may be located in countries other than the country of your residence in order to provide the Services to you. In our Privacy Policy [LINK] you will find further information on how we, Shopify, and our partners use your personal data.
SECTION 11 – FEEDBACK
If you submit, upload, post, email, or otherwise transmit ideas, suggestions, feedback, reviews, proposals, plans, or other content (collectively referred to as “Feedback”), you grant us a perpetual, worldwide, sublicensable, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, publish, distribute, and display this Feedback in any medium for any purpose, including commercial use. For example, we may use our rights under this license to operate, provide, evaluate, expand, improve, and promote the Services and to fulfill our obligations and exercise our rights under the Terms of Service.
You further represent and warrant that: (i) you are the owner of all Feedback content or fully have the necessary rights thereto; (ii) you have disclosed all compensation or incentives you received in connection with the submission of your Feedback; and (iii) your Feedback complies with these Terms of Service. We are not obligated to (1) treat your Feedback as confidential, (2) pay compensation for your Feedback, or (3) respond to your Feedback.
We reserve the right, but are not obligated, to monitor, edit, or remove Feedback that we, in our sole discretion, deem to be unlawful, offensive, threatening, libelous, defamatory, pornographic, obscene, or otherwise objectionable or that violates any party's intellectual property or these Terms of Service.
You represent that your Feedback does not violate any third-party rights, including copyrights, trademarks, privacy rights, publicity rights, or other personal or proprietary rights. You further represent that your Feedback does not contain any defamatory or otherwise unlawful, offensive, or obscene statements and is free of computer viruses or other malware that could in any way affect the operation of the Services or any related website. You may not use a false email address, pretend to be someone else, or otherwise mislead us or third parties as to the origin of the Feedback. You are solely responsible for your Feedback and its accuracy. We assume no responsibility or liability for Feedback posted by you or a third party.
SECTION 12 – ERRORS, INACCURACIES, AND OMISSIONS
Occasionally, information on or in the Services may contain typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions that may relate to product descriptions, pricing, promotions, offers, product shipping costs, transit times, and availability. In the event of inaccurate information, we reserve the right to correct errors, inaccuracies, or omissions, change or update information, or cancel orders at any time without notice (even after you have submitted your order).
SECTION 13 – PROHIBITED USES
You may access and use the Services for lawful purposes only. You may not, directly or indirectly, access or use the Services: (a) for any unlawful or malicious purpose; (b) to violate any international, federal, provincial, or state regulations, rules, laws, or local ordinances; (c) to infringe upon or violate our intellectual property rights or the intellectual property rights of others; (d) to harass, abuse, insult, harm, defame, slander, disparage, intimidate, or discriminate against any of our employees or any other person; (e) to submit false or misleading information; (f) to send, knowingly receive, upload, download, use, or reuse any material that does not comply with these Terms of Service; (g) to transmit or procure the sending of any advertising or promotional material, including “junk mail”, “chain letters”, “spam”, or any other similar solicitation; (h) to impersonate or attempt to impersonate any other natural or legal person, or (i) to engage in any other conduct that restricts or inhibits anyone's use of the Services, or which, as determined by us, may harm Seccorell, Shopify, or the users of the Services or expose them to liability.
Additionally, you agree not to: (a) upload or transmit viruses or any other type of malicious code that will or may be used in any way that will affect the functionality or operation of the Services; (b) reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell, or exploit any portion of the Services; (c) collect or track the personal information of others; (d) engage in spam, phishing, pharm, pretext, spider, crawl, or scrape activities; or (e) interfere with or circumvent the security features of the Services or any related website, other websites, or the Internet. We reserve the right to suspend, deactivate, or close your account at any time without notice if we determine that you have violated any part of these Terms.
SECTION 14 – TERMINATION OF THE CONTRACTUAL RELATIONSHIP
We may terminate this agreement or your access to the Services (or any part thereof) at our sole discretion at any time without notice. In doing so, you remain liable for all amounts due up to the date of termination.

SECTION 15 – DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
The information presented on or through the Services is for general informational purposes only. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of this information. If you rely on this information, you do so at your own risk.

UNLESS EXPRESSLY STATED BY Seccorell, THE SERVICES AND ALL PRODUCTS OFFERED THROUGH THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED FOR YOUR USE “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT ANY REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, MERCHANTABLE QUALITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, DURABILITY, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE OR WARRANT THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE. SOME JURISDICTIONS LIMIT OR DO NOT ALLOW THE DISCLAIMER OF IMPLIED OR OTHER WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE DISCLAIMER MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
SECTION 16 – LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL Seccorell, OUR PARTNERS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AFFILIATES, AGENTS, CONTRACTORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, OR LICENSORS, OR THOSE OF SHOPIFY AND ITS AFFILIATES, BE LIABLE FOR ANY INJURY, LOSS, CLAIM, OR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, LOST SAVINGS, LOSS OF DATA, REPLACEMENT COSTS, OR ANY SIMILAR DAMAGES, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES OR ANY PRODUCTS PROCURED THROUGH THE SERVICES, OR FOR ANY OTHER CLAIM RELATED IN ANY WAY TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES OR ANY PRODUCT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN ANY CONTENT, OR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND INCURRED AS A RESULT OF THE USE OF THE SERVICES OR ANY CONTENT (OR PRODUCT) POSTED, TRANSMITTED, OR OTHERWISE MADE AVAILABLE VIA THE SERVICES, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THEIR POSSIBILITY.
SECTION 17 – INDEMNIFICATION
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Seccorell, Shopify, and our affiliates, partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, licensors, and service providers from any losses, damages, liabilities, or claims, including reasonable attorneys' fees, payable to any third party and arising out of (1) your breach of these Terms of Service or the documents they incorporate by reference, (2) your violation of any law or the rights of a third party, or (3) your access to and use of the Services.
We will notify you of any indemnifiable claim, provided that a failure to provide prompt notice shall not relieve you of your obligations unless you are significantly prejudiced thereby. We may control the defense and settlement of such a claim at your expense, including the selection of counsel, but will not settle any claim requiring non-monetary obligations from you without your consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld). You shall cooperate in the defense of any indemnification claims, including by providing relevant documents.
SECTION 18 – SEVERABILITY
In the event that any provision of these Terms of Service is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, such provision shall nonetheless be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and the unenforceable portion shall be deemed to be severed from these Terms of Service. Such determination shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any other remaining provisions.
SECTION 19 – WAIVER, ENTIRE AGREEMENT
The failure of us to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
These Terms of Service and any policies or operating rules posted by us on this site or in respect to the Service constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us and govern your use of the Service. They supersede any prior or contemporaneous agreements, communications, and proposals, whether oral or written, between you and us (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of the Terms of Service).
Any ambiguities in the interpretation of these Terms of Service shall not be construed against the drafting party.

SECTION 21 – GOVERNING LAW
These Terms of Service and any separate agreements under which we provide Services to you shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the federal and state or territorial courts of the country in which Seccorell has its headquarters.

1. Liability for the content of the homepage
The owners assume no liability for the topicality, correctness, completeness, or quality of the information provided. Liability claims against the owners relating to material or ideal damages caused by the use or non-use of the information provided or by the use of incorrect and incomplete information are fundamentally excluded, unless there is demonstrable intentional or grossly negligent fault on the part of the owners. All offers are subject to change and non-binding. The owners explicitly reserve the right to change, supplement, delete, or temporarily or permanently cease publication of parts of the pages or the entire offer without separate announcement.
2. Liability for references and links
In the case of direct or indirect references to external websites (“hyperlinks”) that lie outside the responsibility of the owners, a liability obligation would only come into force if the owners have knowledge of the content and it would be technically possible and reasonable for them to prevent the use in the case of illegal content. The owners therefore explicitly declare that at the time of linking, the corresponding linked pages were free of illegal content. The owners have no influence on the current and future design and content of the linked/connected pages.
Therefore, they hereby expressly distance themselves from all content of all linked / connected pages that were changed after the link was set. For illegal, incorrect, or incomplete content and especially for damages arising from the use or non-use of information presented in this way, the provider of the page to which reference was made is solely liable, not the person who merely refers to the respective publication via hyperlinks.
3. Copyright and Trademark Law
The owners strive to observe the copyrights of the graphics, sound documents, video sequences, and texts used in all publications, to use graphics, sound documents, video sequences, and texts created by themselves, or to use license-free graphics, sound documents, video sequences, and texts. All brand names and trademarks mentioned within the internet offer and possibly protected by third parties are subject without restriction to the provisions of the respectively valid trademark law and the ownership rights of the respective registered owners. The mere mention of a trademark does not imply that it is not protected by the rights of third parties! The copyright for published objects created by the owners themselves remains solely with the owners. Reproduction or use of such graphics and texts in other electronic or printed publications is not permitted without the express consent of the owners.
4. Data Protection
Insofar as there is the possibility within the internet offer to enter personal or business data (email addresses, names, addresses), the disclosure of this data by the user takes place on an expressly voluntary basis.
5. Legal Validity of the Regulations
The disclaimer as well as the provisions on copyright and trademark law and data protection are to be regarded as part of the internet offer from which reference was made to this page. If parts or individual formulations of the regulations described above should not, no longer, or not completely correspond to the current legal situation, the remaining provisions remain unaffected in their content and validity.
