Article 3 - Applicability

  1. These general terms and conditions apply to every offer from the entrepreneur and to every distance contract concluded between the entrepreneur and the consumer.
  2. Before the distance contract is concluded, the text of these general terms and conditions will be made available to the consumer. If this is not reasonably possible, it will be indicated before the distance contract is concluded that the general terms and conditions are available for inspection at the entrepreneur's premises and will be sent free of charge as soon as possible at the consumer's request.
  3. If the distance contract is concluded electronically, then, contrary to the previous paragraph and before the distance contract is concluded, the text of these general terms and conditions can be made available to the consumer electronically in such a way that the consumer can easily store them on a durable medium. If this is not reasonably possible, before the distance contract is concluded, it will be indicated where the general terms and conditions can be inspected electronically and that they will be sent electronically or otherwise free of charge at the consumer's request.
  4. In the event that specific product or service conditions apply in addition to these general terms and conditions, the second and third paragraphs apply accordingly, and in case of conflicting general terms and conditions, the consumer can always invoke the applicable provision that is most favorable to them.

Article 4 - The offer

  1. If an offer has a limited period of validity or is made under certain conditions, this will be explicitly stated in the offer.
  2. The offer contains a complete and accurate description of the offered products and/or services. The description is sufficiently detailed to allow the consumer to make a proper assessment of the offer. If the entrepreneur uses images, they are a true representation of the offered products and/or services. Obvious mistakes or errors in the offer do not bind the entrepreneur.
  3. Each offer contains such information that it is clear to the consumer what rights and obligations are attached to the acceptance of the offer. This concerns in particular:
  • The price including taxes;
  • Any delivery costs;
  • The way in which the agreement will be concluded and what actions are required for this;
  • Whether or not the right of withdrawal applies;
  • The method of payment, delivery, or execution of the agreement;
  • The period for accepting the offer or the period within which the entrepreneur guarantees the price;
  • The level of the tariff for distance communication if the costs of using the technology for distance communication are calculated on a basis other than the regular basic rate for the used communication method;
  • Whether the agreement will be archived after its conclusion, and if so, in what way it can be consulted by the consumer;
  • The way in which the consumer can check and, if desired, correct the information provided by them in the context of the agreement before concluding it;
  • The possible languages in which, besides Dutch, the agreement can be concluded;
  • The codes of conduct to which the entrepreneur has submitted and the way in which the consumer can consult these codes of conduct electronically; and
  • The minimum duration of the distance contract in the case of a continuing performance contract.

Article 5 - The agreement

  1. The agreement is concluded, subject to the provisions in paragraph 4, at the moment the consumer accepts the offer and meets the associated conditions.
  2. If the consumer has accepted the offer electronically, the entrepreneur will immediately confirm receipt of the acceptance of the offer electronically. As long as this acceptance has not been confirmed, the consumer can dissolve the agreement.
  3. If the agreement is concluded electronically, the entrepreneur will take appropriate technical and organizational measures to secure the electronic transfer of data and ensure a safe web environment. If the consumer can pay electronically, the entrepreneur will take appropriate security measures.
  4. The entrepreneur can, within legal frameworks, inform themselves whether the consumer can meet their payment obligations, as well as all facts and factors that are important for a responsible conclusion of the distance contract. If the entrepreneur has good grounds based on this investigation not to enter into the agreement, they are entitled to refuse an order or request, stating reasons, or to attach special conditions to the execution.
  5. The entrepreneur will send the following information with the product or service to the consumer, in writing or in such a way that the consumer can store it in an accessible manner on a durable medium:

    • B. The conditions under which and the manner in which the consumer can exercise the right of withdrawal, or a clear statement regarding the exclusion of the right of withdrawal;
    • C. The information about existing after-sales services and guarantees;
    • D. The data included in article 4 paragraph 3 of these conditions, unless the entrepreneur has already provided these to the consumer before the execution of the agreement;
    • E. The requirements for terminating the agreement if the agreement has a duration of more than one year or is indefinite.
  6. In the case of a continuing performance contract, the provision in the previous paragraph only applies to the first delivery.

Article 6 - Right of withdrawal upon delivery of products

  1. When purchasing products, the consumer has the option to dissolve the agreement without giving reasons for 14 days. This period starts on the day after receipt of the product by the consumer or a representative previously designated by the consumer and made known to the entrepreneur.
  2. During this period, the consumer will handle the product and packaging with care. They will only unpack or use the product to the extent necessary to assess whether they wish to keep the product. If they exercise their right of withdrawal, they will return the product with all delivered accessories and, if reasonably possible, in the original condition and packaging within 14 days after dissolving the purchase, in accordance with the reasonable and clear instructions provided by the entrepreneur.

In case of delivery of services:

  1. When providing services, the consumer has the option to dissolve the agreement without giving reasons for at least fourteen days, starting on the day of entering into the agreement.

Article 9 - The price

  1. During the validity period stated in the offer, the prices of the offered products and/or services will not be increased, except for price changes due to changes in VAT rates.
  2.

  2. The place of delivery is the address that the consumer has made known to the company.

If the delivery is delayed, or if an order cannot be executed or only partially, the consumer will be notified of this no later than one month after placing the order. In that case, the consumer has the right to dissolve the agreement without costs.
  4. In case of dissolution in accordance with the previous paragraph, the entrepreneur will refund the amount that the consumer has paid as soon as possible, but no later than 14 days after dissolution.
  5. If delivery of an ordered product proves impossible, the entrepreneur will make an effort to provide a replacement article. At the latest upon delivery, it will be clearly and understandably reported that a replacement article is being delivered. For replacement articles, the right of withdrawal cannot be excluded. The costs of return shipment are at the entrepreneur's expense.
  6. The risk of damage and/or loss of products rests with the entrepreneur until the moment of delivery to the consumer or a representative previously designated and made known to the entrepreneur, unless expressly agreed otherwise.

Renewal:
