1. Scope & Acceptance of Terms
These Terms of Service govern all purchases, site interactions, and custom equipment orders placed through Prime Wheelchairs (operated by Ottobock SE & Co. KGaA).
By accessing our storefront, interacting with our clinical configurators, or placing an order, you agree to be bound by these legal terms and conditions without reservation.
2. Medical Equipment Specifications & Custom Orders
Prime Wheelchairs manufactures both standardized active frame models and fully custom rigid power-assist configurations:
- Fitting Precision: Custom fitting options (e.g., seat width, backrest angle, camber degree) are built strictly to dimensions supplied by the client or prescribing clinician during checkout.
- Component Availability: We reserve the right to replace non-critical sub-components with equivalent or superior medical-grade alternatives if supply chain variations occur.
3. Pricing, Taxes & Order Acceptance
All pricing is displayed in transparent commercial currencies with taxes and shipping options clearly defined before checkout execution:
| Commercial Provision | Standard Guideline |
|---|---|
| Price Display | All displayed product prices are net of applicable shipping charges, which calculate at checkout. |
| Payment Authorization | Full payment authorization is required prior to triggering custom factory assembly. |
| Order Refusal | We reserve the right to decline orders in cases of pricing error or unverified medical specifications. |
4. Order Cancellations & Modifications
Standard orders may be canceled within 12 hours of placement without penalty. Once warehouse picking or custom frame welding has commenced, cancellation requests are governed by our standard Return Policy.
Custom active rigid frames engineered to individual anatomical measurements cannot be canceled once fabrication is in progress.
5. Frame Warranty & Service Coverage
All active wheelchair frames and power-assist units carry comprehensive manufacturer warranty protection against structural defects:
- Structural Frame Warranty: 2-year limited warranty covering structural welds and main chassis integrity.
- Wearable Components: Tires, inner tubes, quick-release pushpins, and upholstery carry a 90-day limited warranty against manufacturing flaws.
6. Limitation of Liability
Prime Wheelchairs and Ottobock SE & Co. KGaA shall not be held liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages resulting from improper user assembly, unauthorized third-party modifications, or usage exceeding maximum payload limits specified in equipment manuals.
7. Governing Law & Commercial Jurisdiction
These Terms of Service are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Germany and applicable European Union commercial directives. The exclusive place of jurisdiction for any dispute arising from commercial transactions is Göttingen, Germany.
