If this is not reasonably possible, the entrepreneur will indicate before the distance contract is concluded in what way the general terms and conditions can be consulted with the entrepreneur and that they will be sent free of charge to the consumer as soon as possible at the consumer's request.
If the distance contract is concluded electronically, notwithstanding the previous paragraph and before the distance contract is concluded, the text of these general terms and conditions may be made available to the consumer electronically in such a way that the consumer can easily store them on a durable data carrier. If this is not reasonably possible, it will be indicated before the distance contract is concluded where the general terms and conditions can be consulted electronically and that they will be sent free of charge electronically or otherwise at the consumer's request. In the event that specific product or service conditions apply in addition to these general terms and conditions, the second and third paragraphs apply accordingly and the consumer can always invoke the applicable provision that is most favourable to him in the event of conflicting conditions.
Article 4 - The offer
If an offer has a limited period of validity or is made subject to conditions, this will be explicitly stated in the offer. The offer contains a complete and accurate description of the products, digital content and/or services offered. The description is sufficiently detailed to enable the consumer to properly assess the offer. If the entrepreneur uses images, these are a true representation of the products, services and/or digital content offered. Obvious mistakes or obvious errors in the offer do not bind the entrepreneur. Each offer contains such information that it is clear to the consumer what rights and obligations are associated with accepting the offer.
Article 5 - The Agreement
The agreement is concluded, subject to the provisions of paragraph 4, at the moment the consumer accepts the offer and meets the conditions set. If the consumer has accepted the offer electronically, the entrepreneur will immediately confirm receipt of acceptance of the offer electronically. As long as the receipt of this acceptance has not been confirmed by the entrepreneur, the consumer can terminate the agreement. If the agreement is concluded electronically, the entrepreneur will take appropriate technical and organizational measures to secure the electronic transfer of data and will ensure a secure web environment. If the consumer can pay electronically, the entrepreneur will observe appropriate security measures. The entrepreneur can, within legal frameworks, inform himself whether the consumer can meet his payment obligations, as well as all those facts and factors that are important for responsibly entering into the distance contract. If the entrepreneur has good reasons not to enter into the agreement based on this investigation, he is entitled to refuse an order or request with reasons or to attach special conditions to the execution. The entrepreneur will send the following information to the consumer at the latest upon delivery of the product, service or digital content, in writing or in such a way that the consumer can store it in an accessible manner on a durable data carrier: the visiting address of the entrepreneur's establishment where the consumer can go with complaints; the conditions under which and the manner in which the consumer can exercise the right of withdrawal, or a clear statement regarding the exclusion of the right of withdrawal; the information about guarantees and existing after-sales service; the price including all taxes of the product, service or digital content; where applicable, the costs of delivery; and the method of payment, delivery or performance of the distance contract;the requirements for terminating the contract if the contract has a duration of more than one year or is of indefinite duration;if the consumer has a right of withdrawal, the model withdrawal form.In the case of a continuing performance transaction, the provision in the previous paragraph only applies to the first delivery.
Article 6 - Right of withdrawal
For products:
The consumer can dissolve an agreement regarding the purchase of a product during a reflection period of at least 14 days without giving reasons. The entrepreneur may ask the consumer for the reason for withdrawal, but may not oblige the consumer to state his reason(s). The reflection period referred to in paragraph 1 commences on the day after the consumer, or a third party designated by the consumer in advance, who is not the carrier, has received the product, or: if the consumer has ordered multiple products in the same order: the day on which the consumer, or a third party designated by him, has received the last product. The entrepreneur may, provided that he has clearly informed the consumer of this prior to the ordering process, refuse an order for multiple products with different delivery times. if the delivery of a product consists of different shipments or parts: the day on which the consumer, or a third party designated by him, has received the last shipment or the last part; in the case of agreements for regular delivery of products during a certain period: the day on which the consumer, or a third party designated by him, has received the first product.
For services and digital content not supplied on a tangible medium:
The consumer can terminate a service agreement and an agreement for the supply of digital content that is not supplied on a tangible medium for at least 14 days without giving reasons. The entrepreneur may ask the consumer for the reason for withdrawal, but may not oblige the consumer to state his reason(s). The cooling-off period referred to in paragraph 3 commences on the day following the conclusion of the agreement.
Extended reflection period for products, services and digital content not supplied on a tangible medium if not informed about the right of withdrawal:
If the entrepreneur has not provided the consumer with the legally required information about the right of withdrawal or the model withdrawal form, the cooling-off period will expire twelve months after the end of the original cooling-off period determined in accordance with the previous paragraphs of this article. If the entrepreneur has provided the consumer with the information referred to in the previous paragraph within twelve months after the commencement date of the original cooling-off period, the cooling-off period will expire 14 days after the day on which the consumer received that information.
Article 7 - Obligations of the consumer during the cooling-off period
During the cooling-off period, the consumer will handle the product and packaging with care. He will only unpack or use the product to the extent necessary to determine the nature, characteristics and functioning of the product. The starting point here is that the consumer may only handle and inspect the product as he would be allowed to do in a shop. The consumer is only liable for the depreciation of the product that is the result of a way of handling the product that goes beyond what is permitted in paragraph 1. The consumer is not liable for the depreciation of the product if the entrepreneur has not provided him with all the legally required information about the right of withdrawal before or at the conclusion of the agreement.
Article 8 - Exercise of the right of withdrawal by the consumer and costs thereof
If the consumer exercises his right of withdrawal, he reports this within the cooling-off period by means of the model withdrawal form or in another unambiguous manner to the entrepreneur. As soon as possible, but within 14 days from the day following the notification referred to in paragraph 1, the consumer returns the product or hands it over to (an authorised representative of) the entrepreneur. This is not necessary if the entrepreneur has offered to collect the product himself. The consumer has in any case observed the return period if he returns the product before the cooling-off period has expired. The consumer returns the product with all delivered accessories, if reasonably possible in the original condition and packaging, and in accordance with the reasonable and clear instructions provided by the entrepreneur. The risk and the burden of proof for the correct and timely exercise of the right of withdrawal lie with the consumer. The consumer bears the direct costs of returning the product. If the entrepreneur has not stated that the consumer must bear these costs or if the entrepreneur indicates that he will bear the costs himself, the consumer does not have to bear the costs of return. If the consumer withdraws after having first expressly requested that the performance of the service or the supply of gas, water or electricity that have not been made ready for sale in a limited volume or quantity commences during the cooling-off period, the consumer owes the entrepreneur an amount that is proportional to that part of the obligation that the entrepreneur has fulfilled at the time of withdrawal, compared to the full fulfilment of the obligation. The consumer does not bear any costs for the performance of services or the supply of water, gas or electricity, that have not been made ready for sale in a limited volume or quantity, or for the supply of district heating, if the entrepreneur has not provided the consumer with the legally required information about the right of withdrawal, the cost reimbursement in the event of withdrawal or the model withdrawal form, or; the consumer has not expressly requested the commencement of the performance of the service or the supply of gas, water, electricity or district heating during the cooling-off period. The consumer shall bear no costs for the full or partial delivery of digital content not supplied on a tangible medium, if he has not expressly agreed to commence performance of the agreement before the end of the cooling-off period prior to delivery, he has not acknowledged losing his right of withdrawal when giving his consent; or the entrepreneur has failed to confirm this statement by the consumer. If the consumer exercises his right of withdrawal, all additional agreements are automatically dissolved.
Article 9 - Obligations of the entrepreneur in case of withdrawal
If the entrepreneur makes it possible for the consumer to notify the withdrawal electronically, he will immediately send a confirmation of receipt after receiving this notification. The entrepreneur will reimburse all payments made by the consumer, including any delivery costs charged by the entrepreneur for the returned product, without delay but within 14 days following the day on which the consumer notifies him of the withdrawal. Unless the entrepreneur offers to collect the product himself, he may wait with reimbursement until he has received the product or until the consumer proves that he has returned the product, whichever is the earlier. The entrepreneur will use the same payment method that the consumer used for reimbursement, unless the consumer agrees to a different method. The reimbursement is free of charge for the consumer. If the consumer has opted for a more expensive method of delivery than the cheapest standard delivery, the entrepreneur does not have to reimburse the additional costs for the more expensive method.
Article 10 - Exclusion of the right of withdrawal
The entrepreneur can exclude the following products and services from the right of withdrawal, but only if the entrepreneur has clearly stated this in the offer, at least in good time before the conclusion of the agreement:
Products or services whose price is subject to fluctuations in the financial market over which the entrepreneur has no influence and which may occur within the withdrawal period; Agreements concluded during a public auction. A public auction is understood to mean a sales method whereby products, digital content and/or services are offered by the entrepreneur to the consumer who is personally present or is given the opportunity to be personally present at the auction, under the direction of an auctioneer, and whereby the successful bidder is obliged to purchase the products, digital content and/or services; Service agreements, after full performance of the service, but only if the performance has begun with the express prior consent of the consumer; and the consumer has declared that he will lose his right of withdrawal as soon as the entrepreneur has fully performed the agreement; Package travel as referred to in Article 7:500 of the Dutch Civil Code and passenger transport agreements; Service agreements for the provision of accommodation, if a specific date or period of performance is provided for in the agreement and other than for residential purposes, freight transport, car rental services and catering; Contracts relating to leisure activities, if the contract provides for a specific date or period of performance thereof; Products manufactured according to the consumer's specifications, which are not prefabricated and which are manufactured on the basis of an individual choice or decision by the consumer or which are clearly intended for a specific person; Products that spoil quickly or have a limited shelf life; Sealed products which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene and of which the seal has been broken after delivery; Products which, due to their nature, are irreversibly mixed with other products after delivery; Alcoholic beverages, the price of which has been agreed upon at the time of concluding the contract, but the delivery of which can only take place after 30 days, and the actual value of which depends on fluctuations in the market over which the entrepreneur has no influence; Sealed audio or video recordings and computer software, of which the seal has been broken after delivery; Newspapers, periodicals or magazines, with the exception of subscriptions to them; The supply of digital content other than on a tangible medium, but only if:the performance has begun with the consumer's express prior consent; andthe consumer has acknowledged that he thereby loses his right of withdrawal.
Article 11 - The price
During the validity period stated in the offer, the prices of the products and/or services offered will not be increased, except for price changes due to changes in VAT rates. Notwithstanding the previous paragraph, the entrepreneur can offer products or services whose prices are subject to fluctuations in the financial market and over which the entrepreneur has no influence, with variable prices. This subjection to fluctuations and the fact that any stated prices are target prices are stated in the offer. Price increases within 3 months after the conclusion of the agreement are only permitted if they are the result of statutory regulations or provisions. Price increases from 3 months after the conclusion of the agreement are only permitted if the entrepreneur has stipulated this and these are the result of statutory regulations or provisions; or the consumer has the authority to terminate the agreement with effect from the day on which the price increase takes effect. The prices stated in the offer of products or services include VAT.
Article 12 - Compliance with the agreement and additional warranty
The entrepreneur guarantees that the products and/or services comply with the agreement, the specifications stated in the offer, the reasonable requirements of soundness and/or usability and the legal provisions and/or government regulations in force on the date the agreement was concluded. If agreed, the entrepreneur also guarantees that the product is suitable for other than normal use. An additional guarantee provided by the entrepreneur, his supplier, manufacturer or importer never limits the legal rights and claims that the consumer can assert against the entrepreneur on the basis of the agreement if the entrepreneur has failed to fulfil his part of the agreement. An additional guarantee is understood to mean any obligation of the entrepreneur, his supplier, importer or manufacturer in which he grants the consumer certain rights or claims that go beyond what he is legally obliged to do in the event that he has failed to fulfil his part of the agreement.
Article 13 - Delivery and execution
The entrepreneur will take the greatest possible care when receiving and executing orders for products and when assessing requests for the provision of services. The place of delivery is the address that the consumer has made known to the entrepreneur. Taking into account what is stated in article 4 of these general terms and conditions, the entrepreneur will execute accepted orders with due speed but at the latest within 30 days, unless a different delivery period has been agreed. If the delivery is delayed, or if an order cannot be executed or can only be executed in part, the consumer will receive notification of this at the latest 30 days after placing the order. In that case, the consumer has the right to terminate the agreement without costs and is entitled to any compensation. After termination in accordance with the previous paragraph, the entrepreneur will immediately refund the amount that the consumer has paid. The risk of damage and/or loss of products rests with the entrepreneur until the moment of delivery to the consumer or a previously designated representative made known to the entrepreneur, unless expressly agreed otherwise.
Article 14 - Duration transactions: duration, termination and extension
Cancellation:
The consumer may terminate an agreement entered into for an indefinite period and which extends to the regular delivery of products (including electricity) or services, at any time, taking into account the agreed termination rules and a notice period of no more than one month.

An agreement entered into for a fixed period and which provides for the regular delivery of products or services may only be tacitly extended for an indefinite period if the consumer may terminate it at any time with a notice period of no more than one month. The notice period is no more than three months in the event that the agreement provides for the regular, but less than monthly, delivery of daily newspapers, weekly newspapers and magazines.

Article 15 - Payment
Unless otherwise specified in the agreement or additional conditions, the amounts owed by the consumer must be paid within 14 days after the start of the cooling-off period, or in the absence of a cooling-off period within 14 days after the conclusion of the agreement. In the case of an agreement to provide a service, this period commences on the day after the consumer has received confirmation of the agreement. When selling products to consumers, the consumer may never be obliged in general terms and conditions to pay more than 50% in advance. If an advance payment has been agreed, the consumer cannot assert any rights regarding the execution of the order or service(s) in question before the agreed advance payment has been made. The consumer has the duty to report any inaccuracies in the payment details provided or stated to the entrepreneur without delay. If the consumer does not meet his payment obligation(s) in time, after the entrepreneur has informed him of the late payment and the entrepreneur has granted the consumer a period of 14 days to still meet his payment obligations, if payment is not made within this 14-day period, the consumer will owe the statutory interest on the amount still owed and the entrepreneur is entitled to charge the extrajudicial collection costs incurred by him. These collection costs amount to a maximum of: 15% on outstanding amounts up to € 2,500; 10% on the next € 2,500 and 5% on the next € 5,000 with a minimum of € 40. The entrepreneur may deviate from the stated amounts and percentages to the advantage of the consumer.
Article 16 - Complaints procedure
The entrepreneur has a sufficiently publicised complaints procedure and will handle the complaint in accordance with this complaints procedure. Complaints about the performance of the agreement must be submitted to the entrepreneur within a reasonable time after the consumer has discovered the defects, fully and clearly described. Complaints submitted to the entrepreneur will be answered within a period of 14 days from the date of receipt. If a complaint requires a foreseeable longer processing time, the entrepreneur will respond within the period of 14 days with a confirmation of receipt and an indication of when the consumer can expect a more detailed answer. The consumer must give the entrepreneur at least 4 weeks to resolve the complaint in mutual consultation. After this period, a dispute arises that is subject to the dispute resolution procedure.
Article 17 - Disputes
Agreements between the entrepreneur and the consumer to which these general terms and conditions apply are exclusively governed by Dutch law.
Article 18 - Additional or deviating provisions
Additional or deviating provisions from these general terms and conditions may not be to the detriment of the consumer and must be recorded in writing or in such a way that they can be stored by the consumer in an accessible manner on a durable data carrier.
