Right of Cancellation

You have the right to cancel this contract within fourteen days’ time, without any need to specify grounds of cancellation.

In order to exercise your right of cancellation, you must inform us [Insert name of entrepreneur, address and, if available, telephone number, facsimile number and e-mail address] by unambiguous declaration (e.g. by a letter forwarded by post, by facsimile or by e-mail) of your decision to cancel this contract. You may use the attached model cancellation form for this purpose, although this is not required. You may electronically complete the model cancellation form or another unambiguous declaration on our website [insert Internet address] and forward it to us. If you avail yourself of this option, we shall promptly forward confirmation to you (e.g. by e-mail) of our receipt of such cancellation.

Consequences of cancellation

For such refunds, we shall use the same means of payment as you used in your original transaction, except where we have expressly otherwise agreed with you; in no case will you be subject to any charges for such refunds. We may refuse to make a refund until such time as we have received the returned goods or until you have furnished proof that you have despatched the goods back to us, whichever is the earlier.

This period will be deemed complied with if you despatch the goods prior to expiry of a period of fourteen days.

You shall be responsible for the direct costs of shipping the goods back to us.

You will only be required to compensate us for any loss in value of the goods if such loss in value is the result of your handling of the goods in a way which was not necessary in order to inspect their condition, qualities and functionality.
