USER RIGHTS
Right of withdrawal
Unless exceptions apply, if you qualify as a European consumer, you have the right to withdraw from a contract within a specified period (usually 14 days), without giving any reason. If you don't fit this qualification, you cannot benefit from the rights described in this section.
Exercising your right of withdrawal
To withdraw from a contract, you must inform us clearly of your decision. This can be done using a withdrawal form or by any other clear statement. Make sure to do this before the withdrawal period ends.
Withdrawal period
- for goods, the withdrawal period ends 14 days after you or a designated third party takes physical possession of the goods;
- for multiple goods ordered together or delivered separately, the withdrawal period ends 14 days after you or a designated third party acquires physical possession of the last good.
Effects of withdrawal
If you correctly withdraw from a contract, we will reimburse you for all payments made to us, including any delivery costs, if applicable.
However, any additional costs resulting from choosing a delivery method other than our standard option will not be reimbursed.
We will process your reimbursement promptly and no later than 14 days after we receive your withdrawal notification. Reimbursements will be made using the same payment method you used for the initial transaction unless agreed otherwise. You will not incur any costs or fees for this reimbursement.
... on the purchase of physical goods
Unless we have offered to collect the goods, you must return them to us or to a person authorized by us without delay and no later than 14 days after notifying us of your decision to withdraw from the contract.
Your deadline is met if you hand the goods to the carrier or return them as instructed before the 14-day period expires. We may withhold reimbursement until we receive the goods or until you provide evidence of returning them, whichever occurs first.
You are responsible for any diminished value of the goods resulting from handling beyond what is necessary to establish their nature, characteristics, and functioning.
You will bear the costs of returning the goods.
GUARANTEES

We guarantee the conformity of goods sold to European consumers for at least 2 years from delivery. This guarantee applies to goods on our website according to the laws of your country.
The laws of your country may grant you broader rights regarding legal guarantees of conformity.
LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION
We limit our liability as much as legally allowed when executing agreements with you. This means our responsibility for damages is reduced to the maximum extent permitted by law unless explicitly stated otherwise or agreed upon with you.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify us and our affiliates, officers, directors, and employees from any claims or demands made by third parties due to or in connection with any culpable violation of these terms or third-party rights related to your use of the service to the extent allowed by law.
Limitation of liability
Unless explicitly stated otherwise and subject to applicable law, you cannot claim damages against us (or any individual or entity acting on our behalf).
However, this exclusion does not apply to damages affecting life, health, or physical integrity, damages arising from the breach of significant contractual obligations (such as those necessary to fulfill the contract's purpose), and/or damages resulting from intentional or gross negligence, provided that our website has been used appropriately and correctly by you.
Unless damages stem from intentional or gross negligence, or they impact life, health, or physical integrity, our liability is limited to typical and foreseeable damages at the time the contract was entered into.

We explicitly state that we are not making any promises or guarantees, whether they are express, implied, or even required by law. These include assurances about the quality of the service, its suitability for your specific needs, or whether it infringes on anyone else's rights. Please keep in mind that any advice or information you receive from us or through our service does not create any warranties beyond what we have explicitly stated here.
Additionally, while we strive to provide accurate and reliable content, we cannot guarantee that it is always going to be the case. We do not guarantee that the service will always meet your requirements or be available when you need it. There might be interruptions, or it might not function correctly due to factors beyond our control. While we do our best to keep everything running smoothly, we cannot ensure that the service will be free of harmful elements like viruses.

As such, we want to clarify that we cannot be held responsible for any perceived or actual damages that result from issues related to the content, operation, or use of our service.
While we may have certain exclusions and limitations in our agreement, these may not apply to you depending on the laws of your jurisdiction. Federal law, as well as laws in some states and other jurisdictions, may offer protections that supersede our disclaimers and exclusions. This means that you may have specific legal rights that are not affected by our agreement. It is essential to understand your rights, as they may vary from state to state or country to country. We want to emphasize that any disclaimers or exclusions in our agreement will only be enforced to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall we, along with our subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, agents, partners, suppliers, or employees, be liable for:

This limitation of liability section will apply to the fullest extent permitted by law in the applicable jurisdiction whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other basis, even if you have been advised of the possibility of such damage.
Please note that in some jurisdictions, the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages may not be allowed. This means that these limitations or exclusions might not apply to you. You have specific legal rights, which may vary depending on your jurisdiction. The disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations of liability outlined here may not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law.

These rights are protected by applicable laws and international treaties concerning intellectual property.
All trademarks, whether nominal or figurative, and any other marks, trade names, service marks, word marks, illustrations, images, or logos associated with our website, are and remain the exclusive property of us or our licensors.

Contact
All communications regarding the use of our website must be sent using the contact information provided in this document.
Severability
Invalidity or unenforceability of any provision under applicable law will not affect the validity of other provisions, which will remain in full force and effect.
US users
Any invalid or unenforceable provision will be interpreted to the extent reasonably required to render it valid, enforceable, and consistent with its original intent. This document constitutes the entire agreement between you and us and supersede all other communications, including but not limited to prior agreements concerning such subject matter, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
EU users
If any provision of this document is void, invalid, or unenforceable, we both agree to do our best to find, in an amicable way, an agreement on valid and enforceable provisions. In case of failure to do so, the void, invalid, or unenforceable provisions will be replaced by the applicable statutory provisions.
Regardless of the above, the nullity, invalidity, or impossibility of enforcing a particular provision of this document will not nullify the entire agreement, unless the severed provisions are essential for it, or of such importance that we both would not have entered into the contract if we had known that the provision would not be valid, or in cases where the remaining provisions would translate into an unacceptable hardship for you or us.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the law of the place where we are based, as outlined in the relevant section of this document, without regard to conflict of laws principles.
Prevalence of national law
However, regardless of the above, if the law of the country that you are based on provides for higher applicable consumer protection standards, such higher standards will prevail.
Venue of jurisdiction
The jurisdiction over any controversy related to these terms lies with the courts of the place where we are based, as outlined in the relevant section of this document.
Exception for consumers in Europe
However, regardless of the above, this does not apply if you qualify as a European consumer or if you are a consumer based in Switzerland, Norway, or Iceland.
US users
We both agree to waive any right to trial by jury in any court in connection with any action or litigation. Any claims under these terms shall proceed individually and we both agree not to join in a class action or other proceeding with or on behalf of others.
Surviving provisions

- your grant of licenses under this document will survive indefinitely;
