If the distance agreement is concluded electronically, the text of these terms and conditions may, in deviation from the previous paragraph, be made available to the consumer electronically in such a way that it can easily be stored on a durable medium. If this is not reasonably possible, it will be indicated before the distance agreement is concluded where the terms and conditions can be viewed electronically and that they will be sent to the consumer free of charge upon request.

If Floragummies has reasonable grounds to not enter into the agreement, it may refuse the order or application with a motivated explanation, or attach special conditions to the execution.

  11. If the consumer has the right of withdrawal, the withdrawal form.

  12. In the case of a long-term transaction, the provision in the previous paragraph only applies to the first delivery.

Article 6 – Right of Withdrawal

  2. The reflection period mentioned in paragraph 1 begins the day after the consumer, or a third party designated by the consumer who is not the carrier, has received the product, or:

    1. if the consumer has ordered multiple products in the same order: the day the consumer, or a third party designated by him, receives the last product. Floragummies may, provided it has informed the consumer clearly before the order process, refuse an order of multiple products with different delivery times.

    2. if the delivery of a product consists of several shipments or parts: the day the consumer, or a third party designated by him, receives the last shipment or part;

Article 7 – Obligations of the Consumer During the Reflection Period

  1. During the reflection 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 principle is that the consumer may only handle and inspect the product as he would be allowed to do in a store.

  2. The consumer is only liable for a decrease in the value of the product resulting from a method of handling the product that goes beyond what is allowed in paragraph 1.

  3. The consumer is not liable for any decrease in the value of the product if Floragummies has not provided him with all the legally required information about the right of withdrawal before or at the time of concluding the agreement.

  2. As soon as possible, but within 14 days from the day following the notification mentioned in paragraph 1, the consumer must return the product or hand it over to (an authorized representative of) Floragummies.

The consumer has complied with the return period if he sends the product back before the reflection period has expired.

  3. The consumer must return the product with all provided accessories, if reasonably possible, in its original condition and packaging, and in accordance with the reasonable and clear instructions provided by Floragummies.

    3. Floragummies failed to confirm this statement of the consumer.

  7. If the consumer exercises his right of withdrawal, any supplementary agreements will be automatically dissolved.

  2. Floragummies must reimburse all payments made by the consumer, including any delivery costs charged by Floragummies for the returned product, without delay but within 14 (fourteen) days following the day the consumer notified the withdrawal. Unless Floragummies offers to pick up the product itself, it may delay the refund until it has received the product or until the consumer proves that he has returned the product, whichever comes first.

  3. Floragummies will use the same payment method for the refund as the one used by the consumer, unless the consumer agrees to another method. The refund will be free of charge for the consumer.
