Although the online catalogue and the e-commerce web shop have been created with the utmost care, it is still possible that the offered information might be incomplete, inaccurate or not up-to-date.

Article 5: Delivery and execution of the agreement
Articles ordered via this web-shop are delivered worldwide. The delivery is executed by Bpost. The time of delivery usually takes a few days within Belgium.

For more information on the terms of delivery by Bpost, please consult their website: www.bepost.be
Any visible damage and / or qualitative deficiency of an article or other shortcoming in the delivery must be reported to the Producer by the Customer without delay.
The risk of loss or damage passes to the Customer from when the Customer, or a third party designated by him, that is not the carrier, has physically acquired the goods. However, the risk already passes to the Customer upon delivery to the carrier, if the carrier of the Customer has been instructed to transport the goods and this choice was not offered by the Producer.
Article 6: Reservation of ownership
The delivered goods remain the undivided property of the Producer until payment in full is received from the Customer.
The Customer is held responsible to inform third parties of the reservation of ownership of the Producer, for instance to whoever might confiscate the goods which are not entirely paid for.
Article 7: Right of withdrawal
The stipulations of this article are valid only for Customers who buy goods online in their capacity as consumers from the Producer.
The Customer has the right to exercise his right of withdrawal within a period of 14 calendar days without stipulating any reason as to why he wants to revoke the agreement.
The period of withdrawal elapses a fortnight from the day the Customer, or a third party appointed by the Customer, who is not the transporter, physically receives the goods.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, the Customer needs to inform the Producer unequivocally by declaration in writing by letter or e-mail about his decision to revoke the agreement. See Article 9 for information regarding the appropriate channels.
To comply with the right of withdrawal the Customer has to send his claim for revocation before the period of withdrawal has expired.
The Customer must return the goods without delay, but in any case no later than 14 calendar days after the day on which he has notified his decision to cancel the agreement to the Producer, or hand the goods over to the Producer. The Customer is on time if he returns the goods before the period of 14 calendar days has expired.
The postage costs for returning the goods are at the expense of the Customer.
If the returned product has lost value in any way, the Producer reserves the right to personally hold the Customer responsible.
If the Customer cancels the agreement, the Producer will refund all payments received by the Customer up to that time, including standard delivery costs, within a maximum of 14 calendar days after the Producer has been informed of the Customer’s decision to cancel agreement. In the case of sales agreements, the Producer can wait with the repayment until the Producer has received all the goods back, or until the Customer has demonstrated that he has returned the goods, whichever comes first.
Any additional costs resulting from the Customer’s choice for a different method of delivery than the cheapest standard delivery offered by the Producer will not be refunded.
The Producer pays back the Customer with the same payment method with which the Customer has performed the original transaction. The Customer will not be charged any extra costs for said refunds.
Article 8: Guarantee
Pursuant to the law of 21 September 2004 concerning the protection of consumers in the sale of consumer goods, the consumer has statutory rights. This legal guarantee applies from the date of delivery to the first owner. Every commercial guarantee leaves these rights unabated.
In order to make use of the guarantee, the Customer must be able to present a proof of purchase. Customers are advised to keep the original packaging of the goods.
For items that were purchased online and delivered to the Customer’s home, the Customer must contact the Producent, see Article 9 for address and return the product to the Producer at his expense.
In determining a defect, the Customer must inform the Producer as soon as possible. In any case, any defect must be reported by the Customer within a period of 2 months after it has been determined. Any right to repair or replacement will lapse after that period.
The commercial and / or legal warranty never applies to defects that arise as a result of accidents, neglect, falls, use of the article in violation of the purpose for which it was designed, non-observance of the instructions for use or manual, modifications or changes to the article, crackdown, poor maintenance, or any other abnormal or incorrect use.
Defects that manifest themselves after a period of 6 months following the date of purchase, or delivery, shall be deemed to be no hidden defects unless the Customer proves otherwise.
