If this is not reasonably possible, before the distance contract is concluded, it will be indicated that the general terms and conditions are available for inspection at the entrepreneur's premises and that they will be sent free of charge to the consumer as soon as possible upon request.

3. 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 may be made available to the consumer electronically in such a way that it can be easily stored by the consumer 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 inspected electronically and that they will be sent electronically or otherwise free of charge at the consumer's request.

4. In case specific product or service conditions apply in addition to these general terms and conditions, the second and third paragraphs shall apply mutatis mutandis and in case of conflicting general terms and conditions, the consumer may always rely on the applicable provision that is most favourable to him.

5. If one or more provisions in 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 concerned shall be replaced without delay by mutual agreement with a provision that approaches the purport of the original as much as possible.

2. The offer is non-binding. The entrepreneur is entitled to change and adjust the offer.

3. The offer contains a complete and accurate description of the products and/or services on offer. The description is sufficiently detailed to enable a proper assessment of the offer by the consumer. If the trader uses images, these are a true representation of the products and/or services on offer. Obvious mistakes or obvious errors in the offer do not bind the entrepreneur.

4. All images, specifications data in the offer are indicative and cannot be a reason for compensation or dissolution of the agreement.

5. Images accompanying products are a true representation of the products on offer. Entrepreneur cannot guarantee that the colours displayed correspond exactly to the real colours of the products.

6. 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 are necessary to do so;
whether or not the right of withdrawal applies;
the method of payment, delivery and performance of the agreement;

- the period for accepting the offer, or the period within which the entrepreneur guarantees the price;

- the amount of the rate of distance communication if the costs of using the means of 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 accessed by the consumer;

- the way in which the consumer, before concluding the contract, can check the data provided by him under the contract and, if desired, rectify them;

- any other languages in which, in addition to Dutch, the agreement may be concluded;

- the codes of conduct to which the trader 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.

Article 5 - The agreement

1. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 4, the agreement is concluded at the moment the consumer accepts the offer and fulfils the conditions set out therein.

2. If the consumer has accepted the offer electronically, the entrepreneur shall immediately confirm the 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.

3. If the agreement is concluded electronically, the entrepreneur shall take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect the electronic transfer of data and shall ensure a secure web environment. If the consumer can pay electronically, the entrepreneur will observe appropriate security measures.

4. The entrepreneur may - within legal frameworks - investigate 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 remote agreement. If, based on this investigation, the entrepreneur has good grounds not to enter into the agreement, he is entitled to refuse an order or request or to attach special conditions to the implementation, while stating reasons.

5. The entrepreneur will include 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 way on a durable data carrier:

Article 6 - Right of withdrawal

This reflection period commences on the day after receipt of the product by the consumer or a representative previously designated by the consumer and communicated to the entrepreneur.

2. During the reflection period, the consumer will handle the product and its 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 to the trader with all delivered accessories and - if reasonably possible - in the original condition and packaging, in accordance with the reasonable and clear instructions provided by the trader.

3. If the consumer wishes to exercise his right of withdrawal, he is obliged to make this known to the entrepreneur within 14 days after receipt of the product. The consumer must make this known using the model form. After the consumer has expressed his wish to make use of his right of withdrawal, he must return the product within 14 days. The consumer must prove that the delivered goods were returned on time, for example by means of a proof of dispatch.

4. If the customer has not expressed his wish to use his right of withdrawal or has not returned the product to the entrepreneur after the expiry of the periods mentioned in paragraphs 2 and 3, the purchase is a fact.

On provision of services:

5. When services are supplied, the consumer has the option to dissolve the agreement without giving reasons for at least 14 days, starting from the day of entering into the agreement.

6. To make use of his right of withdrawal, the consumer will comply with the reasonable and clear instructions provided by the entrepreneur on the offer and/or at the latest on delivery.

Article 7 - Costs in case of withdrawal

1. If the consumer exercises his right of withdrawal, at most the costs of return shipment shall be borne by him.

2. If the consumer has paid an amount, the entrepreneur will refund this amount as soon as possible, but no later than 14 days after the withdrawal. This is subject to the condition that the product has already been received back by the entrepreneur or conclusive evidence of complete return can be presented. Refunds will be made via the same payment method used by the consumer unless the consumer explicitly authorises a different payment method.

3. If the product is damaged due to careless handling by the consumer himself, the consumer is liable for any depreciation in value of the product.

4. The consumer cannot be held liable for depreciation of the product if not all legally required information on the right of withdrawal has been provided by the entrepreneur, this should be done before the conclusion of the purchase agreement.

Article 8 - Exclusion of the right of withdrawal

1. 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 good time before concluding the contract.

a. that have been created by the entrepreneur in accordance with consumer specifications;

Article 9 - The price

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

2. Notwithstanding the previous paragraph, the entrepreneur may 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 link to fluctuations and the fact that any stated prices are target prices shall be stated with the offer.

3. Price increases within 3 months of the conclusion of the agreement are only allowed if they result from legal regulations or provisions.

4. Price increases from 3 months after the conclusion of the contract are only allowed if the entrepreneur has stipulated it and:

a. they result from statutory regulations or provisions; or

b. the consumer is authorised to terminate the agreement as from the day on which the price increase takes effect.

5. The prices mentioned in the offer of products or services include VAT.

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

Article 10 - Compliance and Warranty

1. The entrepreneur guarantees that the products and/or services comply with the contract, the specifications stated in the offer, the reasonable requirements of soundness and/or usability and the existing statutory provisions and/or government regulations on the date the contract was concluded. If agreed, the entrepreneur also guarantees that the product is suitable for other than normal use.

2. 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.

3. Any defective or wrongly delivered products must be reported to the entrepreneur in writing within 4 weeks after delivery. Products must be returned in their original packaging and in new condition.

4. 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.

5. The guarantee does not apply if:

- The consumer has repaired and/or modified the delivered products himself or had them repaired and/or modified 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 treated on the packaging;

- The defectiveness is wholly or partly the result of regulations imposed or to be imposed by the government on the nature or quality of the materials used.

Article 11 - Delivery and execution

1. The entrepreneur will take the greatest possible care when receiving and executing orders for products and when assessing requests for the provision of services.

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

3. Subject to what is stated in paragraph 4 of this article, the company will execute accepted orders with convenient speed but at the latest within 30 days, unless the consumer has agreed to a longer delivery period. If delivery is delayed, or if an order cannot or can only be partially carried out, the consumer will be informed about this at the latest 30 days after the order was placed. In that case, the consumer has the right to dissolve the agreement without costs. The consumer is not entitled to any compensation.

4. All delivery periods are indicative. The consumer cannot derive any rights from any deadlines mentioned. Exceeding a term does not entitle the consumer to damages.

5. 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.

6. If delivery of an ordered product turns out to be impossible, the entrepreneur will make an effort to provide a replacement article. At the latest upon delivery, it will be clearly and comprehensibly stated that a replacement article is being delivered. With replacement articles, the right of withdrawal cannot be excluded. The costs of any return shipment shall be borne by the entrepreneur.

7. The risk of damage and/or loss of products rests with the entrepreneur until the moment of delivery to the consumer or a representative designated in advance and made known to the entrepreneur, unless explicitly agreed otherwise.
