2.1 Delivery takes place as long as stock lasts.

2.2 Within the framework of the rules for distance selling, Pretzelking.be will execute orders within 30 days at the latest. If this is not possible (because the ordered item is out of stock or no longer available), or there is a delay for other reasons, or an order cannot be executed or can only be partially executed, the consumer will receive a message within 1 month after placing the order and in that case has the right to cancel the order without costs and without notice of default.

2.3 Pretzelking.be's delivery obligation will, subject to proof to the contrary, be fulfilled as soon as the goods delivered by Pretzelking.be have been offered to the customer once. In the case of home delivery, the carrier's report, containing the refusal of acceptance, serves as full proof of the offer to deliver.

2.4 All deadlines mentioned on the website are indicative. No rights can therefore be derived from the stated deadlines.

  1. Prices

3.1 All prices on the site are subject to printing and typesetting errors. No liability is accepted for the consequences of printing and typesetting errors.

3.2 All prices on the site are in EUROs and include 21% VAT.

  1. Cooling-off period / right of withdrawal

4.1 In the event of a consumer purchase, in accordance with the Distance Selling Act (Article 7:5 of the Dutch Civil Code), the customer has the right to return (a part of) the delivered goods within a period of 14 working days without giving reasons. This period starts at the moment the ordered goods have been delivered. If the customer has not returned the delivered goods to Pretzelking.be after the expiry of this period, the purchase is a fact. The customer is obliged, before proceeding to return, to notify Pretzelking.be thereof via customer service within 14 working days after delivery. The customer must prove that the delivered goods have been returned on time, for example by means of proof of postal delivery. The return of the goods must be in the original packaging (including accessories and accompanying documentation) and in new condition. If the goods have been used, encumbered, or damaged in any way by the customer, the right to dissolution in the sense of this paragraph lapses. Subject to what is stipulated in the previous sentence, Pretzelking.be will ensure that within 30 days of proper receipt of the return shipment, the full purchase amount, including the calculated shipping costs, will be refunded to the customer. The return of the delivered goods is entirely at the expense and risk of the customer.

4.2 The right of withdrawal does not apply to:

  • goods manufactured according to the consumer's specifications,

for example, custom-made goods, or goods that are clearly personal in nature

  • for goods or services that, by their nature, cannot be

returned, for example due to hygiene or goods that can spoil or age quickly.

  1. Data management

5.1 If you place an order with Pretzelking.be, your data will be included in Pretzelking.be's customer database. Pretzelking.be adheres to the Personal Data Protection Act and will not provide your data to third parties. See our Privacy Policy.

5.2 Pretzelking.be respects the privacy of the users of the website and ensures confidential treatment of your personal data.

5.3 Pretzelking.be sometimes uses a mailing list. Each mailing contains instructions on how to remove yourself from this list.

  1. Warranty

6.1 Pretzelking.be guarantees that the products delivered by it meet the requirements of usability, reliability and lifespan as reasonably intended by the parties to the purchase agreement, and thus stands for the manufacturer's warranty of the product delivered to you.

6.2 The warranty period of Pretzelking.be corresponds to the manufacturer's warranty period. However, Pretzelking.be is never responsible for the ultimate suitability of the goods for each individual application by the customer, nor for any advice regarding the use or application of the goods.

6.3 The customer is obliged to check the delivered goods immediately upon receipt. If it appears that the delivered item is incorrect, unsound or incomplete, the customer must (before returning it to Pretzelking.be) immediately report these defects to Pretzelking.be's customer service. Any defects or incorrectly delivered goods must and can be reported to Pretzelking.be in writing no later than 2 months after delivery. The return of the goods must be in the original packaging (including accessories and accompanying documentation) and in new condition. Commissioning after discovery of a defect, damage arising after discovery of a defect, encumbrance and/or resale after discovery of a defect, completely invalidates this right to complain and return.

6.4 If customer complaints are deemed well-founded by Pretzelking.be, Pretzelking.be will, at its option, either replace the delivered goods free of charge or make a written arrangement with the customer regarding compensation, on the understanding that Pretzelking.be's liability and therefore the amount of compensation is always limited to a maximum of the invoice amount of the goods concerned, or (at Pretzelking.be's option) to the maximum amount covered by Pretzelking.be's liability insurance in the case concerned. Any liability of Pretzelking.be for any other form of damage is excluded, including additional compensation in any form whatsoever, compensation for indirect damage or consequential damage or damage due to loss of profit.

6.5 Pretzelking.be is not liable for damage caused by intent or equivalent deliberate recklessness of non-managerial personnel.

6.6 This warranty does not apply if: A) and as long as the customer is in default towards Pretzelking.be; B) the customer has repaired and/or processed the delivered goods himself or has had them repaired and/or processed by third parties. C) the delivered goods have been exposed to abnormal conditions or otherwise handled carelessly or treated contrary to the instructions of Pretzelking.be and/or the instructions for use on the packaging; D) the defectiveness is wholly or partly the result of regulations that the government has imposed or will impose regarding the nature or quality of the materials used;

In no case is Pretzelking.be obliged to pay any penalty or compensation.

10.4 If Pretzelking.be has already partially fulfilled its obligations upon the occurrence of force majeure, or can only partially fulfill its obligations, it is entitled to invoice the already delivered or deliverable part separately, and the customer is obliged to pay this invoice as if it concerned a separate contract.
