Cancellation Policy
Right of cancellation
You have the right to cancel this contract within fourteen days without giving any reason.
The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires physical possession of the goods.
To exercise your right of cancellation, you must inform us [enter the trader’s name, geographical address, telephone number and e-mail address] of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post or an e-mail). You can use the attached model cancellation form for this, but it is not obligatory. You can also electronically complete and submit the model cancellation form or another unequivocal declaration on our website (insert internet address). If you make use of this option, we will immediately send you (e.g. by email) a confirmation of receipt of such a cancellation.
To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of cancellation before the cancellation period has expired.
Consequences of cancellation
If you cancel this contract, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (with the exception of the supplementary costs resulting from your choice of a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us), without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract. For this repayment, we will use the same means of payment that you used for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; under no circumstances will you be charged for this repayment. We may refuse a repayment until we have received the returned goods or until you have provided proof that you have returned the goods, whichever is earlier.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to us without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired.
You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
You will only be liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
