Article 3 - Applicability

1. These general terms and conditions apply to every offer made by the entrepreneur and to every distance contract and order that is concluded between the entrepreneur and the consumer.

2. Before the remote agreement is concluded, the text of these general conditions will be made available to the consumer. If this is not reasonably possible, then before concluding the distance contract, the consumer will be informed that the general terms and conditions are available for perusal at the entrepreneur's premises and that they will be sent to the consumer free of charge as soon as possible, at the consumer's request.

3. If the distance contract is concluded electronically, then, contrary to the previous paragraph, and before the distance contract is concluded, the text of these general terms and conditions will be made available to the consumer in electronic form in such a way that the consumer can easily store them on a durable data carrier. If this is not reasonably possible, before the agreement at a distance is concluded, it shall be indicated where the general conditions can be consulted electronically and that they will be sent to the consumer free of charge, at his request, either electronically or in some other way.

4. In case specific product- or service conditions apply in addition to these general conditions, the second and third paragraph applies accordingly and the consumer can always rely on the applicable provision that is most favorable to him in case of contradictory general conditions.

5. If one or more provisions in these general terms and conditions are null and void or annulled in part or in full at any time, the remaining provisions of the agreement and these terms and conditions shall remain in force and the provision in question shall be replaced without delay, in mutual consultation, by a provision that approximates the scope of the original provision as closely as possible.

6. Situations not covered by these general terms and conditions must be assessed 'in the spirit' of these general terms and conditions.

3. The offer contains a complete and accurate description of the products and/or services offered. The description is sufficiently detailed to allow the consumer to make a proper assessment of the offer. If the entrepreneur uses images, these are a true reflection of the products and / or services offered. Obvious mistakes or obvious errors in the offer are not binding on the entrepreneur.

4. All images, specifications and data in the offer are indicative and can not lead to compensation or dissolution of the agreement.

5. Images of products are a true representation of the products on offer. The Company cannot guarantee that the colours shown will exactly match the real colours of the products.

- the way in which the agreement will be concluded and which actions are required for this;

- whether or not the right of withdrawal is applicable;

- the method of payment, delivery and implementation of the agreement;

If the consumer is able to pay electronically, the entrepreneur shall observe appropriate safety measures.

4. The entrepreneur may - within legal limits - obtain information about the consumer's ability to fulfil his payment obligations, as well as about all those facts and factors which are important for a responsible conclusion of the distance contract.

In that case, the consumer has the right to dissolve the agreement free of charge. The consumer is not entitled to compensation.

6. If delivery of an ordered product turns out to be impossible, the entrepreneur shall make an effort to provide a replacement article.
