Confirmation that the customer’s order has been received does not constitute acceptance of the order.

Orders are confirmed by email. If the deadline expires without result, the offer is deemed rejected. In the event the order confirmation or any other legally binding declaration made by WOW Tech Europe GmbH contains writing or print errors, or if transmission errors affect the set price, WOW Tech Europe GmbH may dispute the declaration due to error whereby the burden of proof for that error lies with WOW Tech Europe GmbH.
