Terms and Conditions
The General Terms and Conditions (GTCs) apply to the sale of vehicles and accessories (‘subject matter’) between the Seller and the Buyer based on a written agreement (‘Purchase Agreement’) which refers to these GTCs.
Vehicle specifications described in the Purchase Agreement are subject to any production changes undertaken by respective plant. Specifications listed in the Agreement, in brochures, offers, order confirmations, etc. – in particular those concerning weights, dimensions, fuel consumption figures, operating costs, speeds, etc. – are to be understood as approximations. Auto Kunz AG does not guarantee that the used car complies with Body Index A (accident-free) as described by www.vfas.ch and has not been used or leased out for commercial passenger transport, unless this is noted in writing in the Agreement. For imported vehicles, model/equipment and engine variants might differ from the specifications of models imported by the main importer, and electronic components such as on-board computers, etc. might not be set to German. Such vehicles, including new cars, usually have been registered for a single day abroad.
In accordance with the conditions/agreements on page 1 of the Agreement. If a manufacturer’s warranty has been agreed, the commencement date for the warranty on new cars or vehicles with a running manufacturer’s warranty shall not be the date the vehicle was first registered, but the date on which the warranty commences in the manufacturer’s system or, if applicable, the contractually agreed date of commencement of the warranty. Auto Kunz AG accepts no liability for the enforcement of warranty claims against the manufacturer or its contractual partners. The manufacturer or its contractual partners may attempt to obstruct or reject warranty claims.
The purchase price is binding for both parties and shall not change. The amount contractually agreed upon shall apply. There are to be no corrections to the price, e.g. neither because of price mark-ups or mark-downs, nor because of exchange rate changes, inflation, deflation, etc.
The buyer expressly declares that there are no claims or retention of title by third parties on the vehicle being traded-in; the buyer bears risks concerning loss, damage or depreciation until the time the trade-in vehicle is handed over to Auto Kunz AG. The buyer confirms that the trade-in vehicle conforms to Body Index A as described by www.vfas.ch and that the kilometres shown on the odometer correspond to the actual kilometres driven. If, after handing over the trade-in vehicle, defects appear that were not recognized at the time the vehicle was handed over, Auto Kunz AG can claim compensation for the damage within a period of two years. The buyer shall be subsequently liable for such discovered defects. If the trade-in vehicle is not delivered, the buyer shall be subject to a penalty of 30% of the purchase price, however no less than 1,000.00 Swiss francs.
The buyer shall accept delays in delivery of up to 150 days. After this accepted delay in delivery has expired, the buyer shall issue a reminder in writing, giving a period of grace of 60 days. If this period expires without satisfaction, the buyer can withdraw from this contract without incurring liability for damages. The contract may only be rescinded by registered letter. The buyer expressly waives any assertion for claims arising from delays in delivering the object of purchase; in particular there shall be no claims to a replacement vehicle.
If the buyer delays accepting the object of purchase, Auto Kunz AG can a) insist on fulfilment and demand damages arising from the delay; or b) immediately refuse subsequent delivery and demand 20% of the sales price as a penalty. The Purchase Agreement constitutes an acknowledgement of debt on the part of the buyer and thus dismisses any appeal.
Auto Kunz AG is entitled to enter a reservation of ownership within the meaning of Article 715 of the Swiss Civil Code to the vehicle and its accessories in the official register kept by the debt enforcement office, until the purchase price – including any default interest and costs – has been paid in full.
If any remaining purchase price is not paid in accordance with the contract, Auto Kunz AG has the right to rescind the contract. The compensation is calculated as follows: 25% of the purchase price for the devaluation of the vehicle for new and used cars, plus 2% of the purchase price per month and 25 centimes per kilometre driven from delivery of the vehicle.
If the underlying contract has not been concluded by authorised signatories of Auto Kunz AG, Auto Kunz AG may declare in writing within 20 days that it is not bound by the contract. Consequently, it shall not be liable for any compensation. Authorised signatories within the meaning of this approval are only those employees entered in the publicly accessible Commercial Register.
If Auto Kunz AG is unable to deliver the vehicle through no fault of its own due to the supplier or manufacturer after the reservation period for consent, Auto Kunz AG shall explain the situation to the buyer in writing. In this case, Auto Kunz AG shall not be liable for any compensation.
If Auto Kunz AG’s free service package is deemed part of the contract as described on the first page of this sales contract, the following provisions shall apply: Term: 3 years or 30,000km, whichever occurs first, beginning from the commencement date of the warranty. The scope of the service shall correspond to the manufacturer’s guidelines. Auto Kunz AG shall bear the costs for labour and materials, excluding all liquids and consumables. Additional and ancillary work will be invoiced separately. Servicing intervals must comply with the service booklet. There is an accepted tolerance for servicing appointment of 1 month and/or 1,000km. All work may only be carried out by Auto Kunz AG or by service partners listed separately. The free service package cannot be used in conjunction with other promotions or vouchers.
Personal data is processed in accordance with data protection legislation. Personal data is stored and processed exclusively to provide individual support to the buyer, to send product information or to submit service offers. For a detailed explanation of the use of personal data by the seller, please refer to the Privacy Policy (an integral part of these Terms and Conditions). The Privacy Policy is published on the seller’s website.
Fees and taxes for vehicle registration are invoiced separately by the competent authorities and are borne by the buyer. Auto Kunz AG is not jointly and severally liable for this.
The parties agree to the written form as a requirement of validity for this contract and all its possible amendments and supplements.
Any disputes arising from this contract and subsequent business relationships shall be heard in the domicile of Auto Kunz AG. The buyer expressly declares that he/she will submit to the jurisdiction agreed here, thereby waiving the buyer’s ordinary place of residence.

In addition to the information that you provide to us directly, the categories of personal information that we receive about you from third parties include, but are not limited to, information from public registers and information that we obtain in connection with administrative and judicial proceedings. Information about you gained in correspondence and meetings with third parties, creditworthiness information (insofar as we conduct business with you personally), information about you which we receive from persons around you (family, consultants, legal representatives, etc.) so that we can conclude or process contracts with you, or with your involvement (e.g. references, your address for deliveries, powers of attorney) information on compliance with legal requirements such as the fight against money laundering and export restrictions), information from banks, insurance companies, sales and other contractual partners of ours on the use or provision of services through you (e.g. payments made, purchases made), information about you from the media and the internet (insofar as is relevant to the situation at hand, e.g. as part of an application, media review, marketing/sales, etc.), your addresses and any interests and other socio-demographic data (for marketing), data in connection with the use of the websites (e.g. IP address of the smartphone or computer, information about your device and settings, cookies, date and time of the visit, pages retrieved and content, functions used, referring website, location information).
Purposes of the data processing and legal bases
We use the personal data collected by us primarily to conclude and process our contracts with our customers and business partners – in particular in the context of the buying and selling of vehicles, repairs, financing and leading with our customers – and in order to fulfil our legal obligations at home and abroad. If you are working on behalf of such a customer or business partner, you can of course also be affected in this function by submitting your personal data.

Consent given consent can be revoked at any time. This, however, does not have any effect on data processing already carried out.

Cookies are small text files stored on your computer by your browser. Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. These are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognise your browser next time you visit us.

Permanent cookies set by the service provider are also used for this purpose. The service provider does not receive personal information from us (nor does it retain IP addresses), but it may track your use of the website, combine this information with information from other websites you have visited that are also tracked by the service provider, and use this information for its own purposes (e.g. steering advertising).

Period of retention for personal data
We will only store your personal information for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes set forth in this policy or purposes otherwise disclosed to you. This means that after you consent to our processing your personal data, we will retain the data for as long as the customer relationship continues (or, if applicable, until the warranty period expires), or until you revoke your consent. However, if you have revoked your consent, we may still continue to store certain personal information for as long as permitted by applicable law or to resolve any disputes. If we have not received your consent to the processing of data, personal data will only be stored for the duration permitted by applicable law.
Data security
By adopting all possible technical and organisational options we strive to save personal data in such a manner that the data cannot be accessed by third parties. If we communicate through unencrypted emails, complete data security cannot be guaranteed. We would therefore recommend using encrypted procedures or the postal route for confidential information.
Obligation to provide personal data
As part of our business relationship, you need to provide the personal information necessary to establish and conduct business to fulfil the contractual obligations associated with it. (You normally do not have a legal obligation to provide us with information.) Without this information, we will normally not be able to enter into or complete a contract with you (or with the body or person you represent). Even this website cannot be used if certain information to secure data traffic (such as an IP address) is not disclosed. We restrict access to your personal information to employees who need to process the information on our behalf and who are contractually obliged to keep your personal information secure and confidential.
Profiling and automated decision making
Some of your personal data is processed in an automated procedure which aims at evaluating certain personal aspects (profiling). We use profiling in particular to provide you with targeted information and advice on products. In doing so, we use evaluation tools that enable us to communicate and advertise according to need, including market and opinion research.
Generally speaking, we do not use fully automated decision-making procedures to establish and implement our business relationship or otherwise (as regulated in Article 22 GDPR). If we do use such procedures in individual cases, we will inform you of this separately, provided that this is legally prescribed. We shall also inform you of your rights connected with this.
Rights of data subjects
Within the framework of data protection law as it applies to you and to the extent envisaged by this law (such as in the case of the GDPR), you have the right to information, to the rectification and erasure of data, the right to restrict data processing and otherwise object to our data processing and to the publishing of certain personal data for the purpose of transferring it to another location (so-called data portability). Please note, however, that we, for our part, reserve the right to assert statutory restrictions, for example if we are obliged to store or process certain, if we have an overriding interest in it (to the extent that we are entitled to rely on this), or we need it to assert legal claims. In principle, a request for information is free of charge. If there is no legitimate interest, a fee may be charged for particularly heavy workloads, or for excessive or habitual requests for information. If costs are to be incurred for you, we will inform you in advance. In Section 2, we informed you of the possibility of revoking your consent. Please note that exercising these rights may conflict with contractual agreements and can have consequences, such as the premature termination of the contract, or costs. We will inform you in advance if this is not already stipulated in the contract.
In exercising such rights, you will be required to clearly prove your identity (e.g. by a copy of your personal ID card if your identity is otherwise not clear or cannot by verified). In order to assert your rights you can contact us at the address given in Section 2.
Each data subject also has the right to take legal action to assert claims or to lodge a complaint with the competent data protection authority. The competent data protection authority in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (http://www.edoeb.admin.ch). In Liechtenstein it is the Liechtenstein Data Protection Commission (www.datenschutzkommission.li).
Additional data protection conditions for courtesy and rental vehicles
As a driver of an Auto Kunz AG vehicle, you grant Auto Kunz AG the right to use the following data – in anonymised form – to help improve our service.
During the contract period, we receive information from the vehicle tracker about kilometre stand, routes travelled and location. We are entitled to use the data to improve our offers, but undertake to make it anonymous and to treat it confidentially in dealings with third parties. By making use of the service, customers agree to the processing of their data.

Such data is managed in an internal database and can be inspected on request.
Amendments
We may amend this privacy policy at any time without notice. The latest version published on our website shall apply. If this privacy policy is part of an agreement with you, we will notify you of any amendments by email or other appropriate means if it is updated.
The right of return is limited to 1 month from the date of delivery. The car has been driven a maximum of 2‘000 km since delivery. A deductible of 3.9% or minimum Fr. 500.- will be charged to the customer. The vehicle must be in the same condition at the return as at the time of delivery. Any damage and cleaning work (such as bumps, scratches, stains and other defects) will be charged. The right of return is only valid in exchange with a new or used car on the warehouse and owned by Auto Kunz AG at the advertised sales price. The replacement car may be more expensive or no more than 10% below the exchange value. Additional accessories purchased to the vehicle, enrollment costs and additional services (such as extra warranties, winter tires, etc.) will not be counted upon return. Benefit and risk are transferred to the buyer at the time of delivery, irrespective of a prudently claimed right of return. After the written and confirmed return, the benefits and risks are transferred to Auto Kunz AG. The right of return can not be asserted in order to reclaim a possibly exchanged vehicle at the current exchange price. Excluded from this right of return are dealers, exporters, garages as well as persons working in the automobile industry and companies.
