    The warranty does not apply if:

    The consumer has repaired and/or processed the delivered products himself or has had them repaired and/or modified by third parties;

    The delivered products have been exposed to abnormal conditions or otherwise handled carelessly or contrary to the instructions of the entrepreneur and / or on the packaging have been handled;

    The inadequacy is wholly or partly the result of regulations that the government has set or will set 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 when receiving and in the execution of orders for products.

    The place of delivery is the address that the consumer has given to the company.

The right of withdrawal cannot be excluded in the case of replacement articles. The costs of a possible return are at the expense of the entrepreneur.

    The risk of damage and / or loss of products rests with the entrepreneur up to the time of delivery to the consumer or a previously designated and announced representative to the entrepreneur, unless otherwise expressly agreed.

    Article 12 - Duration transactions: duration, termination and extension

    Termination

    The consumer may at any time terminate an open-ended contract that has been concluded for the regular supply of products (including electricity) or services, subject to the agreed termination rules and a period of notice that does not exceed one month.

    The consumer may at any time terminate a fixed-term contract that has been concluded for the regular supply of products (including electricity) or services at the end of the fixed-term, subject to the agreed termination rules and a period of notice that does not exceed one month.

    The consumer can use the agreements mentioned in the previous paragraphs:

    The Supplier shall at all times terminate and not be limited to termination at a specific time or in a specific period;

    at least in the same way as they have been entered into by him;

    always terminate with the same notice as the entrepreneur has stipulated for himself.

    Extension

    A fixed-term contract that has been concluded for the regular delivery of products (including electricity) or services may not be tacitly extended or renewed for a fixed period.

    Contrary to the previous paragraph, a fixed-term contract that has been concluded for the regular supply of daily or weekly newspapers or magazines may be tacitly prolonged for a fixed term that does not exceed three months, if the consumer terminates this prolonged contract towards the end of the prolongation, with a period of notice that does not exceed one month.

    A fixed-term contract that has been concluded for the regular supply of products or services may only be automatically prolonged for an indefinite period of time if the consumer has at all times the right to terminate, with a period of notice that does not exceed one month and a period of notice that does not exceed three months if the contract concerns the regular supply of daily or weekly newspapers or magazines but less than once a month.

    A fixed-term contract for the regular supply of daily, news and weekly newspapers and magazines (trial or introductory subscription) is not tacitly continued and ends 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 reasonableness and fairness dictate that termination before the end of the agreed term is unacceptable.

    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 a contract to provide a service, this period commences after the consumer has received confirmation of the contract.

    The consumer has the duty to immediately report any inaccuracies in the payment details provided or stated to the entrepreneur.

    In the event of non-payment on the part of the consumer, the trader has the right, subject to legal restrictions, to charge the consumer reasonable costs made known in advance.

    Article 14 - Complaints procedure

    Complaints about the performance of the contract must be submitted to the trader within 7 days, fully and clearly described, after the consumer has discovered the defects.

    Complaints submitted to the trader will be answered within a period of 14 days from the date of receipt. If a complaint requires a foreseeable longer processing time, the trader will respond within the period of 14 days with an acknowledgement of receipt and an indication of when the consumer can expect a more detailed reply.

    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 well-founded by the entrepreneur, the entrepreneur will, at his discretion, either replace or repair the delivered products free of charge.

    Article 15 - Disputes

    Contracts between the trader and the consumer to which these general terms and conditions apply are exclusively governed by Dutch law. Even if the consumer is living abroad.
