1.3 The Hirer is not permitted to move the Rented Items outside of Hirer’s home, which is the home located at the address stated above or the address indicated by the Hirer on the Platform.


Article 2 - Rental period, renewal and termination

2.1 This Rental Agreement shall take effect on the date it is signed in full, including digital signature, and is initially entered into for a period of at least one (1) year, subject only to the unilateral option of the Provider to terminate the Rental Agreement in accordance with Article 8 below. After expiry of the aforementioned minimum period of one (1) year, this Rental Agreement shall be extended for an indefinite period of time and the Hirer and the Provider shall each have the right to terminate this Rental Agreement in writing, taking into consideration a notice period of one (1) month.

2.2 Notice of termination, as referred to above, which has been effected within a shorter period than that prescribed above or prescribed in any statutory provision in effect at the time of such termination, shall be deemed to have been made at a minimum from the first possible day of termination with due observance of the prescribed period.

Article 3 – Rent, collection and purchase option

3.1 The Parties have agreed on the monthly rent for the Rented Items on the Platform, hereinafter referred to as: the “Rent”, or the Hirer has accepted the offer made on the Platform by the Provider, at its own discretion. Payment of the Rent is due at the time the Rental Agreement is concluded, unless the Parties have agreed otherwise in writing.

3.2 The Rent, subject to any changes thereto under the provisions of this Rental Agreement or by further agreement, shall always be payable by the Hirer to the Provider in a lump sum and in advance before or no later than the first day of each month, and without any discount, set-off or suspension of payments.

3.3 The Rent shall automatically be indexed on 1 July of each year, starting in the second year of this Rental Agreement, on the basis of the Consumer Price Index and without any notice being required, unless this would result in a reduction of the Rent.

3.4 By signing this Rental Agreement, the Hirer hereby authorises the Provider, both under this Rental Agreement and on the basis of what is published by the Hirer on the Platform, to send continuous direct debit orders to the bank of the Hirer, in principle monthly, in order to debit both the Rent and the security deposit described in Article 3.4 below from the bank account of the Hirer. If the Hirer disagrees with a debit, the Hirer is entitled to have such a debit reversed, at his/her own risk. At the same time, the Hirer shall inform the Provider in writing of the reversal, stating reasons. Such a request must be made within eight (8) weeks from the date of the debit and the Hirer must ensure that he/she satisfies the conditions in this regard, including the bank conditions.

3.5 The Hirer shall owe a security deposit of one (1) monthly Rent to the Provider at the start of the Rental Agreement, which deposit shall be held by the Provider as security to cover any damage caused by the Hirer to the Rented Items. If the Parties determine that there is no damage or the cost of repair is less than the security deposit after the return of the Rented Items, the security deposit or the balance thereof will be refunded to the bank account of the Hirer within thirty (30) days of the termination of the Rental Agreement. No interest shall be paid by the Provider to the Hirer for the aforementioned security deposit.

3.6 If the Hirer remains in default of timely payment of the Rent or part of the Rent, the Hirer shall be in default by operation of law and shall owe statutory interest. Interest on the amount due will be calculated from the time the Hirer is in default until the time the total amount due is paid. In addition, the Hirer shall be liable to pay to the Provider, without the need for any notice of default or demand, a penalty of EUR 100 (one hundred euros) for each separate instance of default and EUR 10 (ten euros) per day for each day that an instance of default continues, without prejudice to the right of the Provider to still demand compliance with the relevant obligation and to demand alternative compensation.

3.7 If the Provider is forced to take collection measures due to non-payment of the Rent, all resulting costs shall be borne by the Hirer. Amounts collected or paid shall first serve to reduce the collection costs owed, then to reduce the statutory interest owed and then to reduce the amount owed.

3.8 The Hirer shall at all times have the right to purchase the Rented Items from the Provider, in principle at the new price, and the Hirer may thereby be entitled to a discount on the new price as published from time to time on the Platform as follows:

a 30% (thirty percent) discount if this Rental Agreement has been in effect for a minimum of one (1) year;
a 50% (fifty percent) discount if this Rental Agreement has been in effect for a minimum of two (2) years; and
a 70% seventy percent) discount if this Rental Agreement has been in effect for a minimum of three (3) years.
