You can then shop as usual on the website of the online partner shop. &Charge is not responsible for the pages of the online partner shops and assumes no liability for them or for any purchases You make from an online partner shop. If We are informed via online tracking that You have purchased a certain volume from an online partner shop, We will convert the purchase volume into kilometers according to the specific conditions that are stored on the &Charge Platform for the respective online partner shop and credit the calculated kilometer credit to Your &Charge account. In order to record the purchase volume, it is necessary that You allow cookies to be set in accordance with Our data protection information and Our cookie policy. There is no entitlement to additional booking of kilometer credit in the event of a booking inquiry notification of purchase volumes at online partner shops.
2.4. Collecting kilometer credit as part of offline purchases: On the &Charge Platform, You will also find information about offers for collecting kilometer credit in connection with purchases from offline partner shops. The collection of kilometer credit is subject to the specific conditions that are stored for the respective offline partner shop on the &Charge Platform and may, for example, require You to charge Your electric vehicle near the offline partner shop and / or take a photo of the receipt from the offline partner shop. In addition, individual offline partner shops offer certain discounts or free offers that can be made available in the form of a voucher via the &Charge Platform; please note the specific conditions stored on the &Charge Platform.

2.8. Use of kilometer credits when charging Your electric vehicle: In order to use Your kilometer credit to charge Your electric vehicle, Your &Charge account must be linked to the account with Your e-mobility service provider. This link is made on the part of Your e-mobility service provider in the manner specified by Your e-mobility service provider. After You have successfully linked Your &Charge account to the account with Your e-mobility service provider, You can use Your kilometer credit to pay for charging processes for Your electric vehicle.
The technical processing of the use of kilometer credit for payment to Your e-mobility service provider is based on the conditions that You have agreed with Your e-mobility service provider. We have no influence on the implementation of the link between Your &Charge account and the account with Your e-mobility service provider, nor on the implementation of the technical processing of payment for charging sessions with kilometer credit. In this respect, We are not liable to You either for the successful connection of an account or for the successful use of kilometer credit for a specific charging session. If Your kilometer credit is successfully used to pay for a charging session, We will inform You of this by message upon request and then show You Your remaining kilometer credit on the &Charge Platform.

The other services can be an offer for CO2 compensation services. On Our Website, We offer You the option of using kilometer credits to offset a specified amount of CO2. The CO2 compensation takes place in such a way that We regularly purchase CO2 certificates from Our partner specified on the Website in an amount that corresponds to the CO2 compensations made by Our users. We will inform You about the projects supported in this context on Our Website.
After You confirm within the framework of the intended process that You are using kilometer credit under the conditions mentioned for a specific voucher or another service, We will deduct the specified kilometer amount from Your kilometer credit and make the voucher available to You on the &Charge Platform or store details about the other service in Your &Charge account.

The kilometer credit will be paid to You if and as soon as the Federal Environment Agency (Umweltbundesamt) has positively verified the Authorization Requirements and other requirements and a third party has purchased the THG-Quota.
You have a right of withdrawal by using the function & Charge THG-Quota, which will be explicitly pointed out to You during the order process.

If the Guest does not accept the measurement result in an unauthorized manner after the measurement process has been completed, he/she is violating these terms and conditions. If the Guest does not accept the measurement result in the case of a clearly incorrect measurement (e.g. indication of a significantly excessive price for the charging process), this does not constitute a violation. Fluctuations in the range of +/- 3% corresponding to those of the MID-certified measuring devices are in compliance with calibration law. These fluctuations are therefore not incorrect measurements.

We provide further information as part of the payment process.
