Terms and Conditions and Customer Information

 

I. Terms and Conditions

 

§ 1 Basic Provisions

 

(1) The following Terms and Conditions apply to all contracts concluded with us, the provider DreamyTales GmbH, via the website www.dreamytales.com. Unless otherwise agreed, we do not accept any of your own terms and conditions that may conflict with or differ from these.


(2) A consumer within the meaning of these Terms is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are not primarily related to their trade, business, or profession. A business customer is any natural or legal person or partnership acting in the course of a trade or business when entering into a legal transaction.

 


 

 

§ 2 Formation of Contract

 

(1) The subject of the contract is the sale of personalized goods.


(2) By listing our products on our website, we make a binding offer to conclude a purchase agreement under the terms described in the respective product description.


(3) The contract is concluded through our online shopping cart system as follows:

 

  • The goods you wish to purchase are placed in the shopping cart.

  • You can view and modify the cart at any time before completing your purchase.

  • After entering your personal details and choosing your payment and shipping options, you’ll see an order summary for review.

  • Before submitting your order, you can check and edit all details or cancel the order.

  • By clicking the purchase button (“Buy now” or a similar label), you accept our offer, and the contract becomes legally binding.

 


(4) Order processing and communication related to your purchase are handled automatically by email. Please ensure that your email address is correct and that our messages can be received (e.g., not blocked by spam filters).

 


 

 

§ 3 Payment Methods

 

We currently accept the following payment options, depending on availability in your region:

 

  • Credit and debit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover)

  • PayPal

  • Apple Pay and Google Pay

  • Shop Pay

 


Payment is due at the time of purchase. Your order will be processed once payment is successfully completed.

 


 

 

§ 4 Retention of Title

 

The goods remain our property until full payment has been received.

 


 

 

§ 5 Warranty

 

(1) Our products are subject to the statutory warranty rights applicable under U.S. consumer protection law.


(2) Upon delivery, we kindly ask you to inspect the product for completeness, visible defects, or shipping damage and to notify us promptly of any issues. Failure to do so does not affect your statutory rights.

 


 

 

§ 6 No Right of Withdrawal for Personalized Products

 

Because all our products are personalized and made to your individual specifications, there is no right to cancel or return once production has started or the product has been delivered.


This applies to all products that include custom text, names, photos, illustrations, or other elements based on your input. Personalized items are therefore non-refundable under U.S. consumer law exceptions for custom goods.

 


 

 

§ 6a Voluntary Courtesy Cancellation Policy (Before Production)

 

(1) Although there is no legal right of withdrawal for personalized products, we offer a voluntary courtesy refund if you cancel before your personalized product has been completed.


(2) Cancellation is only possible until we notify you that your product has been finalized. Completion is confirmed by:

 

  • Shipping confirmation email (for physical products), or

  • Delivery confirmation email (for digital products).

 


(3) If you cancel before completion, we will refund 50% of the purchase price as a goodwill gesture. The retained 50% covers design, editing, file preparation, and administrative costs already incurred.


(4) Shipping costs (if any) are non-refundable. Refunds are issued via the original payment method within 14 days after receiving your written cancellation.


(5) To cancel, please email us at service@dreamytales.com and include your order number. Cancellations after completion are not possible.


(6) This goodwill policy is offered voluntarily and does not establish a legal right. It applies in addition to your statutory warranty rights.


(7) We reserve the right to modify or discontinue this courtesy policy at any time. Changes apply only to future orders.

 


 

 

§ 7 Governing Law and Jurisdiction

 

(1) These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without regard to its conflict of law principles.


(2) The exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising out of or in connection with these Terms shall be the competent courts of Delaware, unless otherwise required by mandatory consumer protection law.


(3) The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) does not apply.
