Article 3 – Applicability

These general terms and conditions apply to every offer made by the entrepreneur and to every distance contract and orders established between entrepreneur and consumer. 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, before the distance contract is concluded, it will be indicated that the general terms and conditions can be viewed by the entrepreneur and they will be sent free of charge as soon as possible at the request of the consumer. If the distance contract is concluded electronically, notwithstanding 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 it can be stored by the consumer in a simple manner on a durable data carrier. If this is not reasonably possible, before the distance contract is concluded, it will be indicated where the general terms and conditions can be viewed electronically and that they will be sent free of charge electronically or otherwise at the request of the consumer. 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 the consumer can always invoke the applicable provision that is most favorable to him in the event of conflicting general terms and conditions. If one or more provisions in these general terms and conditions are at any time wholly or partially null and void or destroyed, the agreement and these terms and conditions will remain in force for the rest and the relevant provision will be replaced without delay in mutual consultation by a provision that approximates the tenor of the original as much as possible. Situations that are not regulated in these general terms and conditions must be assessed 'in the spirit' of these general terms and conditions. Ambiguities about the interpretation or content of one or more provisions of our conditions should be interpreted 'in the spirit' of these general terms and conditions.

Article 4 – The offer

If an offer has a limited period of validity or is made subject to conditions, this will be explicitly stated in the offer. The offer is without obligation. The entrepreneur is entitled to change and adapt the offer. The offer contains a complete and accurate description of the products and/or services offered. The description is sufficiently detailed to allow a proper assessment of the offer by the consumer. If the entrepreneur uses images, these are a true representation of the products and/or services offered. Obvious mistakes or errors in the offer do not bind the entrepreneur. All images, specifications and data in the offer are indicative and cannot give rise to compensation or termination of the agreement. Images accompanying products are a true representation of the products offered. The entrepreneur cannot guarantee that the displayed colors exactly match the real colors of the products. Each offer contains such information that it is clear to the consumer what the rights and obligations are that are attached to the acceptance of the offer. This concerns in particular:

  • the price, with the exception of clearance costs and import VAT. These additional costs will be for the account and risk of the customer. The postal and/or courier service will use the special arrangement for postal and courier services with regard to import. This arrangement applies if the goods are imported into the EU country of destination, which is also the case in this case. The postal and/or courier service collects the VAT (whether or not together with the clearance costs charged) from the recipient of the goods;
  • any shipping costs;
  • the manner in which the agreement will be concluded and which actions are required for this;
  • whether or not the right of withdrawal applies;
  • the method of payment, delivery and implementation of the agreement;
  • the period for accepting the offer, or the period within which the entrepreneur guarantees the price;
  • the level of the rate 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 means of communication used;
  • whether the agreement is archived after its conclusion, and if so, how it can be consulted by the consumer;
  • the way in which the consumer, before concluding the agreement, can check the data provided by him in the context of the agreement and, if desired, restore it;
  • any other languages in which, in addition to 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 duration transaction. Optional: available sizes, colors, type of materials.

Article 5 – The agreement

The agreement is, subject to the provisions of paragraph 4, concluded at the moment of acceptance by the consumer of the offer and compliance with the corresponding conditions. If the consumer has accepted the offer electronically, the entrepreneur will immediately confirm receipt of the acceptance of the offer electronically. As long as the receipt of this acceptance has not been confirmed by the entrepreneur, the consumer can dissolve the agreement. If the agreement is created 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 observe appropriate security measures. The entrepreneur can – within legal frameworks – inquire whether the consumer can meet his payment obligations, as well as all those facts and factors that are important for a responsible conclusion of the distance contract. If the entrepreneur has good grounds on the basis of this investigation not to enter into the agreement, he is entitled to refuse an order or request with reasons or to attach special conditions to the implementation. The entrepreneur will send the following information with the product or service to the consumer, in writing or in such a way that it can be stored by the consumer in an accessible manner on a durable data carrier:

  1. the visiting address of the entrepreneur's establishment where the consumer can go with complaints;
  2. the conditions under which and the way in which the consumer can exercise the right of withdrawal, or a clear statement regarding the exclusion of the right of withdrawal;
  3. the information about guarantees and existing service after purchase;
  4. the data included in article 4 paragraph 3 of these conditions, unless the entrepreneur has already provided these data to the consumer before the execution of the agreement;
  5. the requirements for terminating the agreement if the agreement has a duration of more than one year or is of indefinite duration.

In the case of a duration transaction, the provision in the previous paragraph only applies to the first delivery. Every agreement is entered into under the suspensive conditions of sufficient availability of the products concerned.

Article 6 – Right of withdrawal

When purchasing products, the consumer has the option to dissolve the agreement without giving reasons for 90 days. This reflection period starts on the day after receipt of the product by the consumer or a representative designated in advance by the consumer and announced to the entrepreneur.

During the reflection period, the consumer will handle the product and packaging with care. He will only unpack or use the product to the extent necessary to assess whether he wishes to keep the product. If he exercises his right of withdrawal, he will return the product with all accessories supplied and – if reasonably possible – in the original condition and packaging to the entrepreneur, in accordance with the reasonable and clear instructions provided by the entrepreneur.

When the consumer wishes to make use of his right of withdrawal, he is obliged to make this known to the entrepreneur within 90 days after receipt of the product. The consumer must make this known by means of a written message/email. After the consumer has expressed his wish to make use of his right of withdrawal, the customer must return the product within 90 days. The consumer must prove that the delivered goods were returned on time, for example by means of proof of shipment.

If the customer has not made it known that he wishes to make use of his right of withdrawal after the expiry of the periods mentioned in paragraphs 2 and 3, respectively, has not returned the product to the entrepreneur, the purchase is a fact.

Article 7 – Costs in case of withdrawal

If the consumer makes use of his right of withdrawal, the costs for returning the products shall be borne by the consumer. If the consumer has paid an amount, the entrepreneur will refund this amount as soon as possible, but no later than 90 days after the withdrawal. The condition is that the product has already been received back by the web store owner or conclusive proof of complete return can be presented.

Article 8 – Exclusion of right of withdrawal

The entrepreneur can exclude the consumer's right of withdrawal for products as described in paragraphs 2 and 3. The exclusion of the right of withdrawal only applies if the entrepreneur has clearly stated this in the offer, at least in time for the conclusion of the agreement.

Exclusion of the right of withdrawal is only possible for products:

  1. that have been created by the entrepreneur in accordance with the consumer's specifications;
  2. that are clearly personal in nature;
  3. that cannot be returned due to their nature;
  4. that can spoil or age quickly;
  5. the price of which is subject to fluctuations in the financial market over which the entrepreneur has no influence;
  6. for single newspapers and magazines;
  7. for audio and video recordings and computer software whose seal has been broken by the consumer.
  8. for hygienic products whose seal has been broken by the consumer.

Exclusion of the right of withdrawal is only possible for services:

  1. concerning accommodation, transport, restaurant business or leisure activities to be performed on a certain date or during a certain period;
  2. the delivery of which has begun with the express consent of the consumer before the reflection period has expired;
  3. concerning betting and lotteries.

Article 9 – The price

During the period of validity mentioned in the offer, the prices of the products and/or services offered will not be increased, except for price changes as a result of changes in VAT rates. Contrary to the previous paragraph, the entrepreneur can offer products or services whose prices are subject to fluctuations in the financial market and over which the entrepreneur has no influence, with variable prices. This commitment to fluctuations and the fact that any prices mentioned are recommended prices are stated in the offer. Price increases within 3 months after the conclusion of the agreement are only permitted if they are the result of legal regulations or provisions. Price increases from 3 months after the conclusion of the agreement are only permitted if the entrepreneur has stipulated this and:

  1. they are the result of legal regulations or provisions; or
  2. the consumer has the authority to terminate the agreement with effect from the day on which the price increase takes effect.

The place of delivery takes place on the basis of Article 5, first paragraph, Turnover Tax Act 1968 in the country where the transport commences. In this case, this delivery takes place outside the EU. Consequently, the postal or courier service will collect import VAT or clearance costs from the recipient. Therefore, no VAT will be charged by the entrepreneur.

All prices are subject to printing and typesetting errors. No liability is accepted for the consequences of printing and typesetting errors. In the case of printing and typesetting errors, the entrepreneur is not obliged to deliver the product according to the incorrect price.

Article 10 – Conformity and Guarantee

The entrepreneur guarantees that the products and/or services comply with the agreement, the specifications stated in the offer, the reasonable requirements of reliability and/or usability and the legal provisions and/or government regulations existing on the date of the conclusion of the agreement. If agreed, the entrepreneur also guarantees that the product is suitable for other than normal use. A guarantee provided by the entrepreneur, manufacturer or importer does not affect the legal rights and claims that the consumer can assert against the entrepreneur on the basis of the agreement. Any defects or incorrectly delivered products must be reported to the entrepreneur in writing within 90 days after delivery. Return of the products must be in the original packaging and in new condition. The entrepreneur's guarantee period corresponds to the manufacturer's guarantee period. However, the entrepreneur is never responsible for the ultimate suitability of the products for each individual application by the consumer, nor for any advice regarding the use or application of the products.

The guarantee does not apply if:

  • The consumer has repaired and/or processed the delivered products himself or has had them repaired and/or processed by third parties;
  • The delivered products have been exposed to abnormal circumstances or are otherwise carelessly handled or are contrary to the instructions of the entrepreneur and/or have been handled on the packaging;
  • The defectiveness is wholly or partly the result of regulations that the government has made or will make regarding the nature or quality of the materials used.

Article 11 – Delivery and execution

The entrepreneur will take the greatest possible care when receiving and executing orders for products. The address that the consumer has made known to the company applies as the place of delivery. With due observance of what is stated in Article 4 of these general terms and conditions, the company will execute accepted orders with due speed, but at the latest within 30 days, unless the consumer has agreed to a longer delivery period. If the delivery is delayed, or if an order cannot be executed or can only be executed in part, the consumer will receive notification of this no later than 30 days after placing the order. In that case, the consumer has the right to dissolve the agreement without costs and is entitled to any compensation. 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. If delivery of an ordered product proves impossible, the entrepreneur will make an effort to make a replacement article available. At the latest upon delivery, it will be reported in a clear and comprehensible manner that a replacement article is being delivered. With replacement articles, the right of withdrawal cannot be excluded. The costs of a possible return shipment are for the account of the entrepreneur. The risk of damage and/or loss of products rests with the entrepreneur until the moment of delivery to the consumer or a pre-designated representative made known to the entrepreneur, unless expressly agreed otherwise.

Article 12 – Duration transactions: duration, termination and extension

Termination The consumer can terminate an agreement that has been entered into for an indefinite period and that extends to the regular delivery of products (including electricity) or services, at any time with due observance of the agreed termination rules and a notice period of no more than one month. The consumer can terminate an agreement that has been entered into for a definite period and that extends to the regular delivery of products (including electricity) or services, at any time by the end of the definite period with due observance of the agreed termination rules and a notice period of at most one month. The consumer can terminate the agreements mentioned in the previous paragraphs:

  • at any time and not be limited to termination at a specific time or in a specific period;
  • at least terminate them in the same way as they were entered into by him;
  • always terminate them with the same notice period as the entrepreneur has stipulated for himself.

Extension An agreement that has been entered into for a definite period and that extends to the regular delivery of products (including electricity) or services may not be tacitly extended or renewed for a definite period. Notwithstanding the previous paragraph, an agreement that has been entered into for a definite period and that extends to the regular delivery of daily news and weekly newspapers and magazines may be tacitly extended for a definite period of a maximum of three months, if the consumer can terminate this extended agreement towards the end of the extension with a notice period of at most one month. An agreement that has been entered into for a definite period and that extends to the regular delivery of products or services may only be tacitly extended for an indefinite period if the consumer may terminate at any time with a notice period of at most one month and a notice period of at most three months in case the agreement extends to the regular, but less than once a month, delivery of daily, news and weekly newspapers and magazines. An agreement with a limited duration for the regular introduction of daily, news and weekly newspapers and magazines (trial or introductory subscription) is not tacitly continued and ends automatically after the trial or introductory period.

Duration If an agreement has a duration of more than one year, the consumer may terminate the agreement at any time after a year with a notice period of at most one month, unless reasonableness and fairness oppose termination before the end of the agreed duration.

Article 13 – Payment

Unless otherwise agreed, the amounts owed by the consumer must be paid within 7 working days after the start of the reflection period as referred to in article 6 paragraph 1. In case of an agreement to provide a service, this period starts after the consumer has received the confirmation of the agreement. The consumer has the duty to report inaccuracies in provided or stated payment details to the entrepreneur without delay. In case of non-payment by the consumer, the entrepreneur has, subject to legal restrictions, the right to charge the reasonable costs made known to the consumer in advance.

Article 14 – Complaints procedure

Complaints about the execution of the agreement must be submitted to the entrepreneur within 7 days, fully and clearly described, after the consumer has discovered the defects. Complaints submitted to the entrepreneur will be answered within a period of 90 days calculated from the date of receipt. If a complaint requires a foreseeably longer processing time, the entrepreneur will respond within the period of 90 days with a message of receipt and an indication of when the consumer can expect a more detailed answer. If the complaint cannot be resolved by mutual agreement, a dispute arises that is subject to the dispute settlement procedure. A complaint does not suspend the obligations of the entrepreneur, unless the entrepreneur indicates otherwise in writing. If a complaint is found to be justified by the entrepreneur, the entrepreneur will, at its choice, either replace or repair the delivered products free of charge.

Article 15 – Disputes

Dutch law exclusively applies to agreements between the entrepreneur and the consumer to which these general terms and conditions relate. This also applies if the consumer lives abroad.
