In the context of the distribution of electrical and electronic equipment, we are obliged to inform you of the following.

Disposal: Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment

In the context of the distribution of electrical and electronic equipment, we are obliged to inform you of the following:

All electrical devices that can be used in private households are marked with the symbol of a crossed-out wheelie bin.
This symbol indicates that used devices must be collected separately from unsorted municipal waste.
Used devices must not be disposed of with household waste.
Used electrical and electronic devices no larger than 25 cm in any external dimension can be returned at municipal collection points in your city or municipality, such as recycling centers. Additionally, you can also return used electrical and electronic devices to electronics stores or hardware stores.
Alternatively, end-users can return electrical and electronic devices no larger than 25 cm in any external dimension to us. Please send us a message via our contact form, and we will send you a return label.
Used batteries and accumulators that are not enclosed by the used device must be removed before handing them over to a collection point.
You are responsible for deleting personal data from the used devices to be disposed of.

Disposal: Batteries and Accumulators

Some devices contain batteries. Batteries or accumulators may also be permanently installed in the devices themselves. In the context of the distribution of these batteries or accumulators, we, as a distributor, are obliged under Directive 2006/66/EC of the European Parliament to inform you of the following:

Please make sure to return used batteries/accumulators to a municipal collection point or a local retailer, as prescribed by law. Disposal through ordinary household waste is prohibited and violates Directive 2006/66/EC of the European Parliament. Returning at municipal collection points is free of charge. You can also return used batteries, which we supply or have supplied as new batteries, free of charge to our shipping warehouse (shipping address). Should you wish to return batteries/accumulators to us, it must always be sufficiently prepaid.

Used batteries and accumulators containing harmful substances are clearly marked with the symbol of a crossed-out wheelie bin.

Additionally, the chemical symbol of the corresponding harmful substances is indicated below the symbol of the crossed-out wheelie bin. Examples include: (Pb) Lead, (Cd) Cadmium, (Hg) Mercury.
