Article 3 - Applicability

These general terms and conditions apply to every offer from the entrepreneur and to every distance contract and orders between entrepreneur and consumer.
Before the distance contract is concluded, the text of these 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 inspected at the operator and they will be sent to the consumer as soon as possible free of charge at the consumer's request,
If the distance contract is concluded electronically, then, contrary to the previous paragraph and before the distance contract is concluded, the text of these terms and conditions may be made available to the consumer electronically in such a way that the consumer can easily store it 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 viewed electronically and that they will be sent electronically or otherwise free of charge at the consumer's request.
In the event that, in addition to these general terms and conditions, specific product or service conditions also apply, the second and third paragraphs apply by analogy and the consumer can always invoke the applicable provision that is most favourable to him in the event of conflicting general terms and conditions.
If one or more provisions of these general terms and conditions are at any time wholly or partially void or annulled, the agreement and these terms and conditions shall otherwise remain in force and the provision in question shall be replaced by a provision that approximates the purport of the original as closely as possible in mutual consultation.
Situations that are not regulated in these general terms and conditions should be assessed 'in the spirit' of these general terms and conditions.
Uncertainties about the interpretation or content of one or more provisions of our terms and 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 non-binding. 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 enable 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 obvious errors in the offer are not binding on the entrepreneur.
All images, specifications and information contained in the offer are indicative and cannot give rise to compensation or dissolution of the agreement.
Product images are a true representation of the products offered. Entrepreneur cannot guarantee that the colours shown correspond exactly with the real colours of the products.
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 the
special:

the price including taxes;
any shipping costs;
the manner in which the agreement will be concluded and what actions will be necessary for that purpose;
whether or not the right of withdrawal applies;
the method of payment, delivery and execution of the agreement;
the period for acceptance of the offer, or the period within which the entrepreneur guarantees the price;
the amount of the rate for distance communication if the cost of using the means of distance communication is calculated on a basis other than the regular basic rate for the means of communication used;
whether the contract will be archived after its conclusion, and if so, how this can be consulted by the consumer;
the way in which the consumer, prior to the conclusion of the agreement, can check the data provided by him within the framework of the agreement and, if desired, rectify it;
any other languages in which, in addition to Dutch, the agreement may be concluded;
the codes of conduct to which the trader is subject 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 an endurance 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 time of acceptance by the consumer of the offer and compliance with the conditions set.
If the consumer has accepted the offer electronically, the trader will immediately confirm receipt of 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 concluded electronically, the entrepreneur takes appropriate technical and organizational measures to secure the electronic transfer of data and ensures a secure web environment. If the consumer can pay electronically, the entrepreneur will take appropriate security measures.
The entrepreneur can - within the legal framework - inform himself 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, on the basis of this investigation, the entrepreneur has good grounds not to enter into the agreement, he is entitled to refuse an order or request, stating reasons, or to attach special conditions to the implementation.
The Entrepreneur will include 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:
a. the visiting address of the establishment of the entrepreneur to which the consumer can turn with complaints;
b. the conditions under which and the manner in which the consumer can exercise the right of withdrawal, or a clear indication of the exclusion of the right of withdrawal;
c. information on warranties and existing after-sales service;
d. the data included in article 4 paragraph 3 of these terms and conditions, unless the entrepreneur has already provided the consumer with these data prior to the execution of the agreement;
e. the requirements for termination of the contract if the contract has a duration of more than one year or is of indefinite duration.
In the case of an enduring transaction, the provision of the previous paragraph shall only apply to the first delivery.
Each agreement is entered into under the suspensive conditions of sufficient availability of the products concerned.

Article 6 - Right of withdrawal, upon delivery of products:

When purchasing products, the consumer has the option of dissolving the contract without giving reasons for a period of 14 days. This reflection period commences on the day after receipt of the product by the consumer or a representative appointed 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 delivered accessories and - if reasonably possible - in its original condition and packaging to the entrepreneur, in accordance with the reasonable and clear instructions provided by the entrepreneur.
If the consumer wishes to exercise his right of withdrawal, he is obliged to inform the entrepreneur within 14 days after receipt of the product. The consumer must make this known by means of the model form. After the consumer has expressed his wish to exercise his right of withdrawal, the customer must return the product within 14 days. The consumer must prove that the delivered goods have been returned on time, for example by means of proof of dispatch.
If, after the expiry of the periods referred to in paragraphs 2 and 3, the customer has not made it known that he wishes to exercise his right of withdrawal or has not returned the product to the Entrepreneur, the sale is a fact.
When providing services, the consumer has the option of dissolving the contract without giving any reason to dissolve for at least 14 days, commencing on the day of entering into the agreement.
In order to exercise his right of withdrawal, the consumer will follow the reasonable and clear instructions provided by the trader in the offer and / or at the latest at the time of delivery.

Article 7 - Costs in case of revocation

If the consumer makes use of his right of withdrawal, at most the costs of returning the goods shall be borne by him.
If the consumer has paid an amount, the entrepreneur will refund this amount as soon as possible, but at the latest within 14 days after withdrawal. However, this is subject to the condition that the product has already been received back by the merchant or conclusive proof of complete return can be provided. Reimbursement will be made via the same payment method used by the consumer, unless the consumer expressly consents to another payment method.
In the event of damage to the product due to careless handling by the consumer himself, the consumer is liable for any reduction in value of the product.
The consumer cannot be held liable for any reduction in the value of the product if the trader has not provided all the legally required information about the right of withdrawal, this must be done before concluding the purchase contract.

Article 8 - Exclusion of right of withdrawal

The trader may 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 trader has clearly stated this in the offer, at least in good time before concluding the contract.
Exclusion of the right of withdrawal is only possible for products:
a. established by the entrepreneur in accordance with the consumer's specifications;
b. which are clearly personal in nature;
c. which, by their nature, cannot be returned;
d. that can spoil or age quickly;
e. whose price is subject to fluctuations in the financial market over which the entrepreneur has no influence;
f. for individual newspapers and magazines;
g. for audio and video recordings and computer software of which the consumer has broken the seal.
h. for hygienic products of which the consumer has broken the seal.
Exclusion of the right of withdrawal is only possible for services:
a. concerning accommodation, transport, catering or leisure activities to be carried out on a given date or during a certain period;
b. of which the delivery has been started with the express consent of the consumer before the cooling-off period has expired;
c. concerning bets and lotteries.

Article 9 - The price

During the period of validity stated in the offer, the prices of the products and/or services offered will not be increased, except for price changes due to changes in VAT rates.
Contrary to the previous paragraph, the entrepreneur may offer products or services whose prices are subject to fluctuations in the financial market and on which the entrepreneur has no influence, with variable prices. The offer shall state this commitment to fluctuation and the fact that any prices quoted are target prices.
Price increases within 3 months after the conclusion of the contract are only permitted if they are the result of statutory regulations or provisions.
Price increases from 3 months after the conclusion of the agreement are only allowed if the entrepreneur has stipulated this and:
a. they are the result of statutory regulations or provisions; or
b. the consumer has the right to terminate the contract as of the day on which the price increase takes effect.
The prices mentioned in the offer of products or services are inclusive of VAT.
All prices are subject to printing and typographical errors. No liability is accepted for the consequences of printing and typesetting errors. In case of printing and typesetting errors, the entrepreneur is not obliged to deliver the product according to the wrong price.

Article 10 - Conformity and Warranty

The entrepreneur guarantees that the products and / or services meet the agreement, the specifications stated in the offer, the reasonable requirements of reliability and / or usability and the legal provisions and / or government regulations 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 under the agreement can assert against the entrepreneur.
Any defects or incorrectly delivered products must be reported in writing to the entrepreneur within 4 weeks after delivery. The products must be returned in their original packaging and in new condition.
The entrepreneur's warranty period corresponds to the manufacturer's warranty 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 conditions or otherwise treated carelessly or contrary to the instructions of the entrepreneur and / or on the packaging have been treated;
- The defect is wholly or partly the result of regulations that the government has imposed or will impose with regard to the nature or the quality of the materials used.

Article 11 - Delivery and execution

The entrepreneur will take the greatest possible care in receiving and executing orders of products and in assessing applications for the provision of services.
The place of delivery shall be the address that the consumer has made known to the company.
Subject to what is stated in paragraph 4 of this article, the company will execute accepted orders expeditiously 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 is not or only partially carried out, the consumer receives them no later than 30 days after he placed the order. In that case, the consumer has the right to dissolve the agreement free of charge. The consumer has no right to compensation.
All delivery times are indicative. The consumer cannot derive any rights from any of the periods mentioned. Exceeding a deadline does not entitle the consumer to compensation.
In case of dissolution in accordance with paragraph 3 of this article, the entrepreneur will refund the amount paid by the consumer as soon as possible, but at the latest within 14 days after dissolution.
If delivery of an ordered product turns out to be impossible, the entrepreneur will make every effort to make a replacement article available. At the latest upon delivery, it will be clearly and comprehensibly stated that a replacement article will be delivered. In the case of replacement articles, the right of withdrawal cannot be excluded. The costs of any return shipment shall be borne by 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 previously appointed and announced representative, unless expressly agreed otherwise.

Article 12 - Duration transactions: duration, termination and renewal
Termination

The consumer may contract for an indefinite period of time and that extends to the regular delivery of products (including electricity) or services, terminate at any time subject to agreed termination rules and a notice of up to one month.
The consumer may contract for a definite period and that extends to the regular delivery of products (including electricity) or services, at any time at the end of the definite period terminate, subject to agreed termination rules and a notice of up to one month.
The consumer may conclude the contracts referred to in the previous paragraphs:
- terminate at any time and not be limited to termination at a specific time or in a specific period of time;
- at least denounce them in the same way as they were entered into by him;
- Always terminate with the same notice as the entrepreneur has negotiated for himself.
Renewal
A contract entered into for a definite period of time for the regular delivery of products (including electricity) or services may not be tacitly extended or renewed for a definite period of time.
Contrary to the previous paragraph, a fixed-term contract for the regular delivery of daily news and weekly newspapers and magazines may be tacitly renewed for a fixed period of up to three months, if the consu-ment can terminate this extended contract at the end of the renewal with a notice of up to one month.
A fixed-term contract that has been concluded for the regular delivery of products or services may only be tacitly extended for an indefinite period of time if the consumer may at any time terminate the contract by giving up to one month's notice and up to three months' notice if the contract is for the regular delivery of newspapers, news and weekly newspapers and magazines, but less than once a month.
An agreement with a limited duration for the regular delivery of daily newspapers, news and weekly newspapers and magazines (trial or introductory subscription) will not be tacitly continued and will end automatically at the end of the trial or introductory period.
Duration
If a contract has a duration of more than one year, after one year the consumer may terminate the contract at any time with a notice of up to one month, unless the reasonableness and fairness opposes termination before the end of the agreed term.

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 the case of an agreement to provide a service, this period shall commence after the consumer has received confirmation of the agreement.
The consumer has the duty to report any inaccuracies in the payment details provided or stated to the entrepreneur without delay.
In the event of non-payment by the consumer, the entrepreneur has the right, subject to legal restrictions, to charge the consumer reasonable costs incurred in advance.

Article 14 - Complaints procedure

The entrepreneur has a sufficiently publicized complaints procedure and handles the complaint in accordance with this complaints procedure.
Complaints about the implementation of the agreement must be submitted within 7 days fully and clearly described to the entrepreneur, after the consumer has found the defects.
Complaints submitted to the entrepreneur will be answered within a period of 14 days from the date of receipt. If a complaint requires a foreseeable longer processing time, the entrepreneur will respond within the period of 14 days with a message of receipt and an indication 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 dispute resolution.
In case of complaints, a consumer should first of all turn to the entrepreneur. It is then possible to submit complaints via the European ODR platform (http://ec.europa.eu/odr).
A complaint does not suspend the obligations of the entrepreneur, unless the entrepreneur indicates otherwise in writing.
If a complaint is found to be well-founded by the entrepreneur, the entrepreneur will, at its discretion, either replace or repair the delivered products free of charge.

Article 15 - Disputes

Agreements between the entrepreneur and the consumer to which these general terms and conditions apply, are exclusively governed by Dutch law. Even if the consumer resides abroad.
The Vienna Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

Article 16 - Additional or different provisions
Additional provisions or provisions deviating from these general terms and conditions may not be to the consumer's detriment and must be recorded in writing or in such a way that they can be stored by the consumer in an accessible manner on a durable data carrier.
