3     Application

3.1.         These Sales Terms apply to all purchases of Our Products. By placing an order, You expressly accept and agree to be bound by these Sales Terms. These Conditions of Sale do not affect any legal rights conferred on You by mandatory Belgian legislation on consumer protection.

3.2.         We reserve the right to amend these Terms of Sale from time to time. However, the version of these Terms of Sale in effect at the time of the order will continue to apply between You and Us with respect to the Contract.

4     Offer and acceptance

4.1.         We make all reasonable efforts to ensure that information about the characteristics of the Products and illustrations of the Products is as accurate as possible, to the best of our technical ability. Certain non-substantial characteristics of a Product may differ on delivery from the photographs and descriptions displayed on the Site. However, this cannot constitute a ground for claiming non-conformity of delivery.

4.2.         We cannot guarantee that all Products will always be available. Our offer is only valid while stocks last. If you order a Product on the Website that is out of stock, We will inform you as soon as possible by e-mail and you have the right to cancel your order. We are not liable for the temporary or non-availability of a Product on Our Website and/or for any damage resulting from the non-availability of a certain Product. We may apply specific conditions to a particular offer, such as a limited validity period. Such specific conditions are only applicable if expressly communicated prior to the order.

4.3.         We are not bound by an offer if this offer is clearly affected by a mistake or error. Obvious or obvious errors in the quotation, such as obvious inaccuracies, can, insofar as permitted, also be corrected after the conclusion of the Agreement. We cannot be held liable for any (printing) errors in Our prices or conditions.

4.4.         Your acceptance of Our offer is made by placing the order on Our Website. This purchase is binding. We will automatically send a confirmation of the order to the e-mail address You have provided.

4.5.         It is Your responsibility to ensure that the details You provide to Us are correct. If there are any errors, please notify Us as soon as possible or, if possible, correct the errors yourself.

4.6.         We reserve the right to refuse an order due to a serious fault on your part.

4.7.         In accordance with the Code of Economic Law, the Parties expressly acknowledge that electronic forms of communication establish a valid Agreement. We may use any electronic files at our disposal, within the limits of the law, to prove the existence of the Agreement. An ordinary, digital or electronically qualified signature is not an essential requirement of proof.

4.8.         The Contract will only come into effect once We send You confirmation of Your order to the email address You have provided. This confirmation will contain information about the Products ordered by You.

5     Our prices

5.1.         The prices of Our Products are indicated on the Site and are fixed at the time of the order. The indication of the price only relates to the Products as verbally described. Any accompanying photographs are decorative and may contain elements not included in the price. All stated prices are in EURO and include VAT and any other taxes or duties. Any other charges will be stated separately.

5.2.         We have the right to change prices at any time, but We undertake to charge You the rates shown on the Website at the time of Your order. If the price change is due to changes in VAT rates, this will be charged to You.

6     Payment

6.1.         Each payment is in principle immediately and fully handled from the moment you place the order. For the payment of our products we accept Bancontact, Creditcard, Klarna Betaal Nu, KBC /CBC Payment, Belfius Direct net.

6.2.         We may expand payment options in the future. We take all reasonable measures to ensure the security of your online transactions. We ensure this security by engaging specialized parties such as recognized credit card issuers and payment partners.

6.3.         For the processing of payments we use the external payment platform of Mollie. Appropriate security measures are provided. These payments are subject to the Terms of Sale of Mollie, who bears sole responsibility for the correct execution of online payments.

6.4.         We will defer Our delivery obligations until receipt of full payment of all sums due from You. We retain ownership of all Products ordered until full payment of all amounts due under the Contract has been received, whether or not delivery has already taken place.

7     Delivery

7.1.         We process every order as quickly as possible. We make every reasonable effort to deliver your order within 10 working days of confirming via email communication that your order is on its way.

7.2.         It is Your responsibility to facilitate delivery at the agreed place in Your presence or in the presence of a third party appointed by You. Delivery shall be deemed to have taken place once the Products ordered have been presented to You. If an offered delivery is unsuccessful due to a failure on Your part or due to a failure on the part of a third party appointed by You, You will bear the entire cost of any further attempts at delivery.

7.3.         We use reliable external parties for delivery, in particular Bpost. The use of external parties may affect delivery. Following a non-delivered order, an investigation is immediately started with the carrier. This will take several days, during which time no refund or re-dispatch will be possible.

7.4.         If We fail to deliver the Products at the agreed time or within 30 calendar days, You will request delivery within an additional period of time appropriate to the circumstances. If We fail to deliver within the additional period You have the right to terminate the Contract. In such case of termination, We will promptly reimburse all amounts paid within fourteen (14) calendar days of termination. Exceeding the delivery period will not give rise to any other (compensation).

7.5.         Until payment has been made in full, the Products delivered shall remain Our exclusive property. However, the risk of loss or damage passes to You once You (or a third party designated by You) have taken physical possession of the Products. Please note that although You retain ownership of the Product following payment in full, You do not retain ownership of Our intellectual property rights (as referred to in clause 14 (Intellectual Property). Such intellectual property rights will at all times remain vested in Us or Our licensors.

7.6.         You undertake, if necessary, to inform third parties of Our retention of title as set forth above, e.g., to any third party who may come to seize items that have not yet been paid for in full. In this connection, You undertake to notify Us immediately in writing of any attachment levied by a third party on the Products delivered.

8     Non-fungible token (NFT)

8.1.     With the purchase of some of Our Products, You will also receive an associated non-fungible token, which forms an integral part of the Product You have purchased.

8.2.     As long as You hold the NFT provided by Us, You will enjoy a number of exclusive benefits as indicated in Your account on Our website. These benefits are limited in time, subject to change and in no way constitute an acquired right.

8.3.     Once You have linked the NFT to Your personal crypto wallet, You can no longer invoke the right of withdrawal, as provided for in clause 9.10 below.

8.4.     The NFT can be resold, but is subject to the conditions specified in the accompanying smart contract. If you resell the NFT, you no longer benefit from the lifetime warranty on Our Products (referred to in clause 10.6.).

9     Right of withdrawal

9.1.         On the basis of the right of withdrawal, You may withdraw from the purchase within fourteen (14) days from the day following the delivery of the Product. You are not obliged to pay any compensation or provide a reason. We would like to hear your feedback so that we can improve our service.

9.3.         If the Agreement is concluded for a regular delivery of Products during a defined period of time, the withdrawal period will begin as soon as You, or a third person other than the carrier and indicated by You, take physical possession of the first Product.

9.11.      The Consumer shall be liable for any diminution in the value of the Products resulting from handling the Products beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and operation of the Products.
