4. Orders, prices and payment

By completing the payment process and placing an order by clicking the "Place Order" button on the checkout page, you indicate to buy the products. Your order of products is covered by these Terms and Conditions. All orders depend on availability and confirmation of the price for the order. Legal ownership of the purchased product will be transferred to you after your payment has been accepted. Risk of the product remains with WD Diffusion nv until it is delivered to you at the address you have provided when placing your order.

To order products, you must be over 18 and have a valid credit or debit card. By placing an order, you certify that all the information you provide is correct and accurate, that you are over 18 years of age, that you are an authorized user of the credit or debit card used to place your order and that there is sufficient balance available on the account to cover the cost of your order.

The Website allows you to check your order and correct any errors before you complete the purchase. Take the time to read your order and check on each page of the ordering process as you are responsible for the fact that the information you provide is correct (for example, the right products, quantities, size, colour, etc.).

(a) Origin of the contract : When you place an order, you will receive an e-mail confirming receipt of your order. This email only serves as confirmation as information and it does not mean that your order is accepted. If your order is accepted, we will send you a confirmation (invoice) email describing the products purchased in the order and certain other information about your rights.

Each order connects WD Diffusion nv only after receipt of its full payment and after WD Diffusion nv has sent the customer a written confirmation by email with clear indication of the customer's details, confirmation of the payment, delivery address and an overview of the ordered products.

WD Diffusion nv reserves the right not to confirm the order if the ordered products are not available, if the payment authorization is refused by the bank or if there is a dispute between the two parties.

If the order cannot be honored after 30 days of confirmation due to exceptional circumstances, the customer has the right to cancel his order free of charge and WD Diffusion nv will proceed to the refund as soon as possible.

(b) Pricing and availability : Although we try to ensure that all the details, descriptions and prices that appear on the Website are correct, errors may occur. If we discover an error in the price of products you have ordered, we will notify you as soon as possible and offer you the opportunity to re-confirm or cancel your order at the correct price. If we are unable to contact you, your order will be treated as cancelled. If you cancel and you have already paid for the products, you will receive a full refund as soon as possible.

All prices are listed in euro and include VAT and all other taxes and taxes to be paid by the customer, but excluding bank charges, delivery costs, any import taxes, customs duties and customs formalities of the country of destination. These costs remain at the customer's expense and will be billed directly to the customer by the transporter, on top of the prices of the products. Shipping costs (including the VAT we charge) vary depending on the products you have ordered and your delivery address. The delivery costs that apply to your order are clearly displayed in the checkout before you place your order (and are included in the "Total Cost" amount on the order's summary page).

Depending on your delivery address, additional costs as well as import duties may apply. We do not have any control over these costs and cannot give advice on the amount. You are responsible for the payment of duties and taxes that are not included. Contact your local customs office for more information and an "estimate of costs" before placing your order.

Please note that if you return an item, the taxes and import duties will be refunded to you if they were originally included in the purchase price. If they were not included, you will be responsible for recovering the charges directly from your local customs office.

Once the order has been confirmed by the customer, the payment can be made via a credit card (Visa, Master Card or American Express). However, WD Diffusion nv assumes no liability for banking transactions.

As long as the payment has not been received by WD Diffusion nv, your ordered products will not be delivered. Products will not be shipped until the information you specified has been verified. Once we have verified your payment information, accepted and approved your order, we will proceed with the delivery. In the unlikely event that we encounter a problem when processing your order, we will contact you and may request further information to resolve the issue if possible.

We reserve the right not to accept your order, for example if the ordered product is out of stock, withdrawn or otherwise unavailable, or if we are unable to obtain permission for your payment or if you do not meet the eligibility criteria.

5. Delivery

The estimated delivery date of the products will be stated in your email confirmation. If you do not receive an estimated delivery date from us, we will deliver the order within 30 days of the date of shipment. The delivery period depends on the availability of the product(s) in stock. The transport time depends on the delivery address. Delivery times are just estimates and cannot be guaranteed. We will try to ensure that your order is delivered within an average period of three to five business days after the date of receipt of the full payment and confirmation (working days in Belgium and in the country of destination), but there may be circumstances in which delivery is delayed due to events beyond our control. If this happens, we try to ensure that your products are delivered as soon as possible, but we are not liable for any losses caused by such a delay. The customer cannot refuse products, claim compensation or cancel the order due to delay in delivery for which WD Diffusion nv cannot be liable.

Depending on the availability of the products, they can be delivered in one or more shipments.
In the event of damage, it shall be notified in writing on the delivery receipt and by e-mail to info@wd-diffusion.com. Any damage caused during transport that was not reported within 24 hours will no longer be taken into account.
If the customer is absent from delivery of the products and does not pick up the package within the period that it remains available at the pick-up point or at the carrier, then the customer will first have to pay the costs for re-sending before the products can be re-shipped.

6. International delivery

Certain products may have restrictions on certain international destinations. For delivery to an international destination, your order may be subject to import duties and taxes that are applied when the package reaches that destination. You must comply with all applicable laws and regulations of the country for which the products are intended. We are not liable or responsible if you violate such laws.

7. Return policy

As a reputable and trusted company dedicated to offering its customers high-quality products, we recognize our obligation to ensure that all suppliers work ethically.

All suppliers are expected to comply with their national labour laws and regulations in particular as regards: minimum age for work, free work, health and safety, freedom of association and the right to collective bargaining, no discrimination, no hard or inhumane treatment, working hours, wages and working conditions. Due to the sometimes complex nature of the suppliers' supply chain, it is not always possible to monitor and control the circumstances of each person involved in the production of the products.

The information on the website reflects reality as best as possible. However, the colors, dimensions & volume listed on the website are approximate. The customer is aware that the colors and volume can vary from one computer screen to another and thus accepts that there may be differences between reality and what is displayed on the screen.

Each complaint should be addressed to WD Diffusion nv as soon as possible, within two calendar months of the determination of the conformity problem by sending an e-mail to the address info@wd-diffusion.com. In addition, the customer must send a copy of his proof of purchase, describe the identified problem in detail and, if possible, send one or more photos/video.
If the problem was or could not be fixed immediately upon receipt, the customer will receive a warranty of 24 months from the date of receipt of the products, and that for all hidden manufacturing or design errors for which WD Diffusion nv would be fully liable.

Once that deadline has expired, the customer will no longer be entitled to the product warranty.
The liability of WD Diffusion nv is, if established, strictly limited to the exchange of the non-compliant product or its refund.
Exchanged products will continue to be guaranteed as long as the initial warranty period has not yet been expired, without exeeding the initial period.
The costs for returning non-compliant products are at the customer's expense and the cost of shipping replacement products is at the expense of WD Diffusion nv. In the case of unjustified return, WD Diffusion nv reserves the right to refuse any subsequent order.
Conformity and guarantee; We guarantee that the products comply with the agreement, the specifications stated in the offer, the reasonable requirements of soundness and/or usability and the legal provisions applicable on the date of conclusion of the agreement and/or the distance agreement.
