Applicability of Terms and Conditions

1. All Terms, Conditions and Supplies of Piercings Works are subject to the General Terms, unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing.

2. If Customer accepts, in its contract, confirmation or notice containing acceptance or terms or conditions that differ or are not contained in the General Terms, these are binding for Piercings Works only if and in so far as they have been explicitly accepted by Piercings Works in writing.

3. In the event that, in addition to these General Terms and Conditions, specific product or service terms and conditions apply, those conditions also apply, but Customer may, in the event of contradictory terms, always rely on the applicable provision that is most favorable to them.

 

Prices and information

1. All prices quoted on the Website and other materials of Piercings Works include VAT and, unless otherwise stated on the website, other charges imposed by government.

2. If shipping costs are counted, this will be clearly stated in time for the conclusion of the Agreement. In addition, these costs will be displayed separately in the ordering process.

3. The content of the Website has been compiled with the utmost care. However, Piercings Works can not guarantee that all information on the website is accurate and complete at all times. All prices and other information on the Website and other materials of Piercings Works are therefore subject to obvious programming and typing errors.

4. Piercings Works can not be held responsible for (color) deviations due to display quality.

 

Establishment Agreement

1. The Agreement is established at the time of acceptance by the Customer of the offer of Piercings Works and compliance with the conditions imposed by Piercings Works.

2. If Customer has accepted the offer by electronic means, Piercings Works will promptly acknowledge receipt of acceptance of the offer by electronic means. As long as the receipt of this acceptance is not confirmed, the Customer has the opportunity to dissolve the Agreement.

3. If it appears that in the acceptance or otherwise of the Agreement, Customer has provided incorrect information, Piercings Works is entitled to fulfill its obligation only after the correct information has been received.

4. Piercings Works may, within legal frameworks, inform whether Customer is able to meet its payment obligations, but also all the facts and factors that are relevant for the accountability of the Agreement. If, on the basis of this inquiry, Piercings Works has reasonable grounds for not entering into the Agreement, Piercings Works is entitled to refuse an order or request or to impose special conditions such as prepayment on performance.

 

Registration

1. In order to make full use of the Website, Customer may register via the Registration Form / Account Login on the Website.

2. During the registration process, Customer selects a username and password that allows him to log in to the Website after registration. Customer is responsible for choosing a sufficiently reliable password.

3. Customer must have his login credentials to keep his username and password strictly secret. Piercings Works is not responsible for the misuse of the login information, and it is always assumed that a Customer who logs on to the Website is actually the Customer. All that happens through Customer's account is under the responsibility and risk of the Customer.

4. If Customer knows or suspects that his / her credentials have been entered into by unauthorized persons, he or she must change his / her password as soon as possible and / or inform Piercings Works so that Piercings Works can take appropriate action.

 

Implementation Agreement

1. Once the order has been received by Piercings Works, Piercings Works shall send the products as soon as possible with due observance of paragraph 3 of this Article.

2. Piercings Works is entitled to enable third parties to perform the obligations arising from the Agreement.

3. The delivery period is, in principle, 14 calendar days. The manner of delivery can take place in different ways and is the choice of Piercings Works.

4. If Piercings Works can not deliver the products within the agreed term, it will inform Customer. In that case, the customer can agree to a new delivery date or he will be able to dissolve the Agreement free of charge.

5. Piercings Works recommends that Customer inspect the delivered products and report the defects identified in such time as possible, preferably in writing or by e-mail. See the Warranty and Compliance article.

6. As soon as the products to be delivered are delivered to the specified delivery address, the risk to these products will be transferred to Customer. If explicitly agreed otherwise, the risk is already transferred to Customer. If Customer decides to remove the products, there is a risk of transfer of the products.

7. Piercings Works is entitled to supply a similar product of similar quality as the ordered product, if ordered is no longer available. Customer is then entitled to dissolve the agreement free of charge and return the product free of charge.

 

Right of withdrawal / return

1. Customer has the right to dissolve the remotely agreed agreement with Piercings Works within 30 calendar days of receipt of the product without charge for any reason. The term expires on the day after the Customer, or a third party designated by him, who is not the carrier, received the product, or:

• If Customer has ordered multiple products in the same order: the date on which Customer, or a third party designated by him, has received the last product;

• if the delivery of a product consists of different consignments or parts: the date on which Customer, or a third party designated by him, has received the last shipment or the last item;

• For agreements for regular delivery of products for a certain period of time: the date on which Customer, or a third party designated by him, received the first product.

2. Only the direct costs for the return shipment will be borne by Customer. Customer must therefore bear the return costs. If these costs are higher than the regular postal rate, Piercings Works will estimate these costs.

Any Customer-paid costs for shipping and payment of the Product to Customer will be refunded to Customer by return of the entire order.

3. Within the period of withdrawal referred to in paragraph 1, Customer will carefully handle the product and the packaging. Customer will only open the package and use the product only as far as it is necessary to check the nature, characteristics and operation of products. The starting point here is that this inspection should not go beyond that Customer could in a physical store. Specially for Customers acting in pursuit of their profession or business, products may only be returned unused in unopened packaging.

4. Customer is solely responsible for impairment of the product resulting from a way of dealing with the product beyond that allowed in the previous paragraph.

5. Customer may terminate the Agreement in accordance with paragraph 1 of the time limit set forth in this Article by sending the Model Form for Revocation (Digital) to Piercings Works, or otherwise informing Piercings Works that he sees from the purchase. Piercings Works confirms receipt of that notification in case of a digital alert. After dissolution, Customer has 14 days to return the product. It is also possible to return the product immediately within the meaning of paragraph 1 of this Article, provided that the model form for revocation or other unambiguous declaration for revocation is enclosed.

Products can be returned to:

Piercings Works

1017CN, Amsterdam

6. Amounts already paid by Customer (in advance) will be repaid to Customer in the same manner as that Customer has paid the order as soon as possible, but no later than 14 days after termination of the Agreement. If Customer has chosen a more expensive delivery method than the cheapest standard delivery, Piercings Works does not have to pay back the additional cost for the more expensive method.

Unless Piercings Works offers the product itself, Piercings Works may wait for repayment until Piercings Works has received the product or until Customer shows that he has returned the product, whichever is earlier.

7. On the Website, information on whether or not to apply for the right of withdrawal and any possible procedure will be clearly stated in time of conclusion of the Agreement.
