Terms of Sale

Last updated: May 2023 (E-Comm-In BV Version: 8.3)

As used in these Terms of Sale “E-Comm-In BV ”, “we”, “our” or “us” means the applicable E-Comm-In BV  Contracting Party, as defined in the paragraph below. E-Comm-In BV  is the sales facilitation and e-commerce partner of the brand or retailer operating this e-commerce web-store (“Brand” and “Store”, respectively), where the products or services were made available to you for purchase through the checkout (“Product“). The Brand has an agreement with E-Comm-In BV  allowing E-Comm-In BV  to act as the merchant of record, in E-Comm-In BV ’s name and on behalf of the Brand.

By placing your order to purchase one or more Products (each, an “Order”) through the checkout, you confirm that you have read and understood these Terms of Sale and the Privacy and Cookies Policy (which is available on the checkout) (together, “Terms”) in their entirety, and you agree to be bound by them. These Terms define your legal relationship regarding the checkout, the placement of Orders, and the purchase of Products underlying such Orders.

If you do not agree to the Terms, please do not complete your Order.

These Terms are entered into force in the English language and governed by it. You agree that any translation, if provided, is available for your convenience only (unless otherwise required by applicable law).

If you are placing your Order for delivery into one of the following countries, please refer to Annex 1. to access additional and specific terms that apply to you: Australia, Brazil, Canada, any destination or country which is a member of the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom.

The E-Comm-In BV  Contracting Party under these Terms is the entity listed on your invoice and in the Contact Us page on the checkout. For details and contact information of E-Comm-In BV Contracting Party please refer to the “Contact Us” page on check out.

Placing your order 

Placing Orders through the checkout is reserved exclusively for individuals purchasing Products for their own personal use (“Consumers”).

By placing an Order, you represent and warrant that (i) the Order and purchase of Products thereunder is strictly and solely for your personal use, and not for resale, distribution or any other commercial activities; and (ii) you are legally capable (in terms of age and mental capability) of entering into binding contracts per the local legal requirements in the place where you reside.

Orders are placed through the checkout by clicking on the “Place Order” button (or similar button). The checkout displays the Products you purchase, the price thereof, international delivery costs and fees (“Delivery Costs“), any applicable import or sales taxes (such as Value Added Tax, Goods and Services Tax, Consumption Tax), and, if available for pre-payment, import duties, tariffs and similar costs and fees that may be imposed by the delivery destination (collectively, “Duties and Taxes“).  Please make sure you review your Order carefully, identify and correct any input errors prior to placing your Order.

As we offer you the option to purchase the Products in your local or chosen currency, the price of the Products may change from time to time due to exchange rate fluctuations. However, the price, Delivery Costs and Duties and Taxes (if available for pre-payment) of the Products you purchase, will be those that were displayed to you on the checkout at the time you actually placed your Order.

The checkout page will specify the payment methods available for your Order. The availability of such payment methods is dependent on your geographical location.

You acknowledge and agree that: (i) E-Comm-In BV  will use one of its third party payment processors providers (“Payment Processor“) to process your payment (while E-Comm-In BV  is acting as the merchant of record), using the payment method you have selected on checkout and it may use the tools, technology or the services of the Payment Processors to process the transaction on its behalf; and (ii) you will provide valid and current information about yourself.

If the payment method you selected for the Order supports pre-authorization mechanism (e.g. most credit/debit cards), then when you place the Order, the applicable amount will only be authorized, and you will be charged on the earliest of up to 5 days as of date of Order or once the Product has been dispatched to you.

If the payment method you selected does not support pre-authorization mechanism, the charge will be immediate upon placing the Order (noting however that specific payment methods may support a different timing and we may not know or be in control over such timing, if applicable. Please check your selected payment method’s terms of service for more details). Please note that you will be charged the full Order amount even if the Order will be dispatched in parts or if it is a ‘pre-order’ or similar type of order.

The Store displays the characteristics of the Products you order. There could be minor differences between the Products you eventually receive and their visual display on the Store or checkout (e.g. in relation to appearance / color / texture / finish) as all pictures and images of Product displayed are for illustrative purposes only. Where dimensions and measurements are provided in the description of each Product, the dimensions may vary slightly in real life, and it is your responsibility to ensure that the actual size of each Product is suitable for your purpose (including whether there is appropriate and safe access to your delivery address for delivery of the Product), please read the descriptions and details of the Products carefully before placing the Order. This clause does not limit or exclude consumer guarantees or warranties which cannot be excluded under applicable consumer rights legislation explicitly prevailing the governing law hereof

 

Order Acceptance and Confirmation

The information contained in these Terms, and the data contained on the Store and checkout, constitute only an invitation to contract. Your Order is not accepted (and therefore no commitment is made to sell or provide you with the Products), and no contract for the sale of such Products will come into effect, until you receive an email explicitly stating that the Order has been accepted and confirmed (“Order Confirmation“). The contract is concluded in the dispatch country  (where the contract for the sale of the Order is concluded).

The Order is subject to fraud checks and other mandated regulatory checks (such as ‘Denied Parties Screening’). You may also be required to provide additional verifications and information before, and as a condition to, the acceptance of any Order (mainly if there is suspicion that the identity, address, email address and/or payment information were used fraudulently or in an unauthorized manner).

In certain circumstances your Order may be declined or cancelled (in full or in part), whether before, or after an Order Confirmation was received. For example, we may, in our sole discretion, decline or cancel (in full or in part), any Orders which did not successfully pass the above-mentioned fraud and regulatory checks, any abnormal Orders, any Orders which are suspected to be placed in bad faith, Orders which were not placed by Consumers,  Orders in which the payment information you provided cannot be verified, or if a Product included in the Order is unavailable.

We also reserve the right, in our sole discretion to decline or cancel an Order (in full or part) in case of actual or suspicious circumstances (related to us, you or any third party) of a good faith, genuine or honest error, mistake or misunderstanding (an “Error”) where without such Error the Order would not have been accepted or dispatched and a contract to sell the Product(s) underlying the Order would not have been agreed to or when such Error was abused by you to purchase such quantity of items which otherwise would not have been purchased or considered to be a regular order. An example could be a speciously low price for an item otherwise costing significantly more and not in the context of a ‘sale’ or special promotion. We will be under no obligation to honor an Order in such erroneous circumstances.

In each event described above where an Order was canceled or declined, you will be refunded in accordance with these Terms (provided your payment was processed successfully).   

Quantity limits (per order, per address or otherwise) may apply in relation to certain Products, and exceeding Orders could be declined at any time for that reason, without notice.

Unless otherwise required by applicable law, we are not required to provide a reason for declining or canceling any Order, though we may do so in our sole discretion

 

Duties and Taxes 

You may be offered to pre-pay Duties and Taxes on checkout. Not all products and not all destinations support pre-payment of Duties and Taxes, and we cannot guarantee that your Order will be eligible for such pre-payment. The Store or checkout will provide details, itemize or indicate if the price paid is inclusive or exclusive of Duties and Taxes before you complete and place the Order.

If Duties and Taxes were not paid when you placed your order, either because you so elected or because pre-payment is not available in the delivery destination (or for any other reason): (a) you are advised that the amount of Duties and Taxes displayed under the pre-payment option on the checkout is only an estimation and may not reflect the amount of Duties and Taxes actually charged to you by the broker, carrier or the relevant authority, which such amount might be higher than the estimation; and (b) you will be fully responsible for paying all applicable Duties and Taxes directly to the relevant authority as determined and assessed by such authorities. E-Comm-In BV  and the Brand will have no responsibility or liability in connection with the foregoing. Moreover, if you fail to pay any Duties and Taxes without reasonable reason, causing the liability to fall on us, the carrier or any third party (including the Brand), the amount of such Duties and Taxes may be deducted from any refund or other amounts you may claim.

E-Comm-In BV  performs imports of goods in it’s own name but on account and responsibility of the legal owner of the goods, i.e the principle. We may also act as, or use our intra-group affiliates as, a ‘customs declarant’ to clear the Order into the market in our name but on your behalf. Your agreement to these Terms constitutes a consent and authorization for such customs brokers, fiscal representatives or intra-group affiliates to act on your behalf (as an agent, declarant or as otherwise applicable) to: (a) transact with the applicable authorities, (b) complete, submit and execute related documents on your behalf in connection with the import and clearance of Products, (c) facilitate payment of Duties and Taxes and customs clearance; and (d) if applicable, return such Products (subject to these Terms).

 

Risk; Importer of Record

The title to the Products ordered is transferred from E-Comm-In BV  to you prior to import, provided we are satisfied that a full payment of the Order amount was made or can be made.

Risk of damage or loss is transferred to you upon delivery to the delivery address specified in the Order (in case you have selected not to pre-pay Duties and Taxes, such location will be deemed to be the port of entrance to the import destination).

YOU WILL BE CONSIDERED AS THE ‘IMPORTER OF RECORD’ OF THE PRODUCT, AND WE (OR SOMEONE ON OUR BEHALF) WILL ONLY BE FACILITATING THE IMPORTATION ON YOUR BEHALF, AS YOUR AGENT, AND MAY, IN CERTAIN CASES, ACT AS THE ‘DECLARANT’ FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF FACILITATING THE CUSTOMS CLEARANCE (HOWEVER THIS WILL NOT CHANGE YOUR STATUS AS THE IMPORTER FOR PERSONAL USE PURPOSES).

YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSURING THAT THE PRODUCT CAN BE LAWFULLY IMPORTED INTO THE DESTINATION, AND YOU THEREFORE NEED TO COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS, REGULATIONS, CERTIFICATIONS AND RULES OF THE DESTINATION INTO WHICH YOU IMPORT THE PRODUCT. PLEASE NOTE THE STANDARD FOR USING THE PRODUCT IN THE IMPORT DESTINATION BEFORE ORDERING. PRODUCT ORDERED TO A DESTINATION WITH DIFFERENT STANDARDS CANNOT BE RETURNED FOR THIS REASON AND NO LIABILITY WILL BE ASSUMED IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCES WHICH MAY ARISE FROM PURCHASING PRODUCT WITHOUT THE CORRECT STANDARDS FOR YOUR DESTINATION.

Please note that documentation such as packaging, user manuals, product care labels, handling instructions or safety warnings may not be in your language; you may not have available manufacturer’s or other service options for the Product or parts thereof; the Product (and accompanying materials) may not be designed in accordance with the standards, product regulations, specifications of the destination to which you import or labelled in accordance with the requirements applicable in your destination, or in yours or the destination’s language; if the Product is powered, it may not conform to the destination power parameters such as voltage or other electrical standards (for example you may need to use an adapter to charge your Product).

Any transaction for the purchase of Products under a tax exemption (i.e. by submitting your VAT number) will still be classified by E-Comm-In BV  as a personal import transaction and you hereby agree and acknowledge that items purchased by you under such exemption are purchased for your own use and not for resale

 

Fulfillment, Handling and Delivery of Orders

The delivery and fulfillment of your Order is carried out by various service providers, which will be selected and operated by us.

Some Products may not be delivered to certain locations or destinations (due to limitations imposed on the Product itself or by the destination). You will be informed of such limitations, either at the Store or checkout, and the checkout should not permit you to submit your Order if the Product cannot be delivered to your specified address. However, we reserve the right, at any time, to suspend or cancel the delivery of any Product that cannot be legally delivered as such.

Delivery will be completed when the Product is delivered to the address chosen by you as specified when placing your order (in case Duties and Taxes were not paid, that may include the port of entrance to the country destination). Different parts of your order may be delivered on different dates.

Unless otherwise stated, and subject to applicable laws, delivery dates given on checkout (or on the Store) are estimates only. The Order will be delivered by the latest delivery time set out on checkout (based on the delivery method you selected if such selection was available for your Order) or, if no delivery time is specified, within 30 days following the Order Confirmation date, unless exceptional circumstances exist (pre-order for example). Delivery timeframes are affected by your delivery address and the delivery method selected. E-Comm-In BV  is unable to specify an exact delivery date and time.

E-Comm-In BV  and the Brand have no liability for any loss arising from delay in delivery to the extent such delay is due to circumstances beyond reasonable control or where no reasonable steps could have been taken to deal with the delay. For example, delays resulting from customs clearance procedures, lockdowns, or other actions of the authorities are outside E-Comm-In BV ’s or the Brand’s control, as well as any delay resulting directly from your actions or omissions.

If you receive notification of an attempted delivery, it is your responsibility to use the details provided to contact the fulfillment provider for re-delivery. Efforts will be made to deliver your Product according to the details in the Order.

 

Special Provisions – Payments

We may not be able to control additional charges, fees (such as foreign transaction fees or cross-border fee), or surcharges imposed by your own bank, card issuer, or the payment method you selected. We may not have any knowledge in advance of the applicability of such fees or surcharges nor does E-Comm-In BV  have any way to mitigate this, as this is purely up to the relationship and commercial terms between you and your bank, card issuer or payment method and their own policies. E-Comm-In BV ’s sole commitment in this respect is to acquire the amount specified on checkout in your selected currency.

E-Comm-In BV  takes the safeguarding of your payment details seriously, but we may not be able to prevent, and cannot be held liable for the loss you may suffer if a third party procures unauthorized access to your payment details when accessing or ordering from the Store.

The transaction statement (of your chosen payment method) regarding the Order you placed with us will look substantially like this: **E-Comm-In BV //Brand name**.

 

Special Sales and Ordering

The Brand may offer you the opportunity to participate in a limited-time campaign, competition, hype, raffle or similar offerings for the purchase of Products from us (each a “Campaign”). Such a Campaign may be made available to you through the Store, mobile apps or via another third-party platform (“Campaign Platform”).

Products purchased through a Campaign may be subject to the Brand’s specific Campaign terms and conditions (“Campaign Rules”) in addition to these Terms. The Campaign Rules, if apply, will be made available to you on the applicable Campaign Platform.

By participating in the Campaign, you agree to be bound, in addition to these Terms, to the Campaign Rules, including any specific provisions therein regarding Returns, Refunds and Cancellation Rights (if applicable). In case of conflict between the provision of these Terms and the Campaign Rules, the provisions of the Campaign Rules will prevail.

If you are announced as a winner of a Campaign (such announcement to be made by the Brand in accordance with the Campaign Rules), E-Comm-In BV  will automatically process your Order according to the payment, billing and shipping details provided by you upon registration and you confirm that those are your accurate details.
