A clear rule

In Germany, products containing nicotine may not be supplied to anyone under 18. That applies in a shop and online alike, and it applies without exception.

That is why we ask for your age the moment you open the shop. If it later looks like the answer was not truthful, we cancel the order and refund the amount.

For parents

If your child has ordered from us

Write to us

We cancel the order and refund the amount, even if the parcel is already on its way.

Parental control filters

Programs such as JusProg can block content for minors on the device.

Advice

The Bundeszentrale für gesundheitliche Aufklärung provides information for young people and parents at rauchfrei-info.de.

Legal basis

Youth Protection Act and Tobacco Products Act

Supplying products containing nicotine to minors is prohibited under the Jugendschutzgesetz. That applies to shops and to mail order alike. Breaches can be punished with a fine.

The Tabakerzeugnisgesetz additionally governs how products containing nicotine may be advertised and supplied in Germany. We address our communication exclusively to adults and do not advertise our products on channels aimed mainly at young people.

We stick to that, without exception and without leniency. Orders where there is doubt about the buyer being of age are cancelled and refunded in full.
