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 it can be easily stored by the consumer on a durable data carrier. If this is not reasonably possible, before the distance contract is concluded, it will be indicated where the general terms and conditions can be inspected electronically and that they will be sent electronically or otherwise free of charge at the consumer's request.
4. In the event that specific product or service conditions apply in addition to these general terms and conditions, the second and third paragraphs shall apply mutatis mutandis and, in the event of conflicting general terms and conditions, the consumer may always rely on the applicable provision that is most favourable to him.

2. The offer is non-binding. The entrepreneur is entitled to change and adjust the offer.
3. The offer contains a complete and accurate description of the products and/or services on offer. The description is sufficiently detailed to enable a proper assessment of the offer by the consumer. If the trader uses images, these are a true representation of the products and/or services on offer. Obvious mistakes or obvious errors in the offer do not bind the entrepreneur.
4. All images, specifications data in the offer are indicative and cannot be a reason for compensation or dissolution of the agreement.
5. Images accompanying products are a true representation of the products on offer. Operator cannot guarantee that the colours displayed correspond exactly to the real colours of the products. 
6. Each offer contains such information that it is clear to the consumer what rights and obligations are attached to the acceptance of the offer. This concerns in the
   special:

• • the price including taxes;
  • any shipping costs;
  • the manner in which the agreement will be concluded and what actions are necessary to do so;
  • whether or not the right of withdrawal applies;
  • the method of payment, delivery and performance of the agreement;
  • the period for accepting the offer, or the period within which the entrepreneur guarantees the price;
  • the amount of the rate of distance communication if the cost of using the means of distance communication is calculated on a basis other than the regular basic rate for the means of communication used;
  • whether the agreement is archived after its conclusion and, if so, how it can be accessed by the consumer;
  • the way in which the consumer, before concluding the contract, can check the data provided by him under the contract and, if desired, rectify them;
  • any other languages in which, in addition to Dutch, the agreement may be concluded;
  • the codes of conduct to which the trader has submitted and the way in which the consumer can consult these codes of conduct electronically; and
  • the minimum duration of the distance contract in the case of a duration transaction.

Article 5 - The agreement

1. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 4, the agreement is concluded at the moment the consumer accepts the offer and fulfils the conditions set out therein.

If the agreement is concluded electronically, the entrepreneur will take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect 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.
4. The entrepreneur may - within legal frameworks - inform himself whether the consumer can meet his payment obligations, as well as of all those facts and factors that are important for a responsible conclusion of the remote agreement. If, on the basis of this investigation, the entrepreneur has good grounds not to enter into the agreement, he is entitled to refuse an order or application or to attach special conditions to the implementation, while giving reasons.
5. The entrepreneur will include the following information with the product or service to the consumer, in writing or in such a way that it can be stored by the consumer in an accessible way on a durable data carrier:

Article 6 - Right of withdrawal

On delivery of products:

3. If the consumer wishes to exercise his right of withdrawal, he is obliged to make this known to the trader within 14 days of receiving the product.

Refunds will be made via the same payment method used by the consumer unless the consumer explicitly authorises a different payment method.
3. If the product is damaged due to careless handling by the consumer himself, the consumer is liable for any depreciation in value of the product.

1. The trader guarantees that the products and/or services comply with the contract, the specifications stated in the offer, the reasonable requirements of soundness and/or usability and the existing statutory provisions and/or government regulations on the date the contract was concluded.

4. The entrepreneur's guarantee period corresponds to the manufacturer's guarantee period. However, the entrepreneur is never responsible for the ultimate suitability of the products for each individual application by the consumer, nor for any advice regarding the use or application of the products.
5. The guarantee does not apply if:

• The consumer has repaired and/or modified the delivered products himself or had them repaired and/or modified by third parties;
• The delivered products have been exposed to abnormal conditions or otherwise treated carelessly or contrary to the instructions of the entrepreneur and/or treated on the packaging;

In that case, the consumer has the right to dissolve the agreement without costs. The consumer is not entitled to any compensation.

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