Conditions
CUSTOMER CARE
Due to the current Corona situation with different circumstances in the various member states of the EU and Switzerland as well as the currently high workload of the transport companies, there may be delays in delivery [of 4-6 working days], for which we ask for your understanding. We will endeavor to deliver the products as soon as possible.
1. Applicability and Scope
The following General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as "GTC") apply to all business relationships between CELTAS LIBRES (hereinafter referred to as "CELTAS LIBRES", "us" or "we") and the customer (hereinafter referred to as "customer", "buyer" or "you ») for physical products (hereinafter «Products» or «Goods») purchased through our website [■] (hereinafter «Online Shop» or «Website»).
The website and the online shop are operated by:
[CELTA LIBRES]
[Hopfenstrasse 15, 8045 Zurich]
[Phone: +41 79 368 59 11 ]
[Email: info@celtaslibres.com]
Individual agreements concluded with the customer take precedence over these General Terms and Conditions. Conflicting conditions of the customer are not recognized.
CELTAS LIBRES reserves the right to change these GTC at any time. All changes will take effect upon the posting of the new T&Cs on the website. When purchasing a product, the relevant point in time for the applicability of the valid General Terms and Conditions is the date on which the binding order was submitted to us.
Please read these terms and conditions carefully before placing a binding order. By bindingly ordering our products, you declare that you agree to the following conditions and our data protection declaration and that you are authorized to enter into legally binding contracts and are at least 18 years old.
2. Conclusion of a purchase contract
The presentation of the products in the online shop does not constitute a legally binding offer, but merely a non-binding online catalog or a non-binding invitation to the customer to order the product in the online shop. CELTAS LIBRES expressly reserves the right to change the products themselves as well as the content, such as images, range, prices and descriptions of our products, at any time and without prior notice. Illustrations, images, brochures, advertising and other information related to our products are for informational purposes only and are not binding on CELTAS LIBRES.
The customer can make a binding order for the products he has selected via our online shop. The customer can place the products he has selected in the “shopping cart”. This does not yet count as a binding order. An order is only considered to be binding if the customer clicks on the [«Order with obligation to pay»] button on the order page at the end of the ordering process. Before sending the order, the customer can change and view the information at any time, recognize any input errors and correct them if necessary before the binding final submission of the order.
An order confirmation will be sent to the customer immediately and automatically by e-mail. This confirmation e-mail contains the data of your order and our terms and conditions that you accepted during the ordering process. The confirmation e-mail only serves as information that we have received your order. The automatic order confirmation does not yet result in a purchase contract. By submitting the order, you confirm that you have read the terms and conditions and agree to them without reservation. We recommend that you print out the GTC for the purpose of online ordering and your documentation or save them on your computer.
After you have submitted a binding order, CELTAS LIBRES is free, at its own discretion, to either accept the order or to reject it by sending a corresponding notification by e-mail and without assuming any liability to you or any third party. Any payment already made will be refunded to you upon cancellation of the order. Reasons for refusing an order may include, for example, if a product is no longer available, if we cannot obtain authorization for the customer's payment, or if there is reason to believe that the customer has breached these T&Cs, Individual Contracts, fraudulent or other criminal activities or for any other important reason.
When the order is accepted, a binding purchase contract is formed with the customer. This acceptance takes place through the dispatch of the ordered goods.
Any commercial distribution or resale of our products is strictly prohibited.
3. Availability and reservation of performance for products that cannot be delivered
All information about the availability of our products and the shipping and delivery of our goods are preliminary information and approximate guide values. They do not represent binding or guaranteed shipping or delivery dates. Liability for unavailable goods or for delays in shipping or delivery of the goods is expressly excluded.
Our products are available while stocks last. If, while processing your order, CELTAS LIBRES discovers that the goods you have ordered are not available, we will inform you immediately. In this case, a contract for the non-deliverable goods does not come about because the ordered goods cannot be delivered.
We also reserve the right to limit the number of items that can be purchased by a customer. In this case, we will inform the customer accordingly by e-mail.
4. Prices and shipping costs
Our products and prices correspond to those indicated on the website. All prices are given in CHF (Swiss francs) [or in euros, if applicable] and include the statutory value added tax (VAT) [if applicable in the respective EU country, additional mention of any other VAT, levies/fees]. The total price of your order, including all additional and shipping costs and the VAT to be paid for the respective country, is displayed at the end of the ordering process. [Depending on the type of delivery, this must be adjusted: When shipping to countries outside of Switzerland, additional customs fees may apply. These are not included in the price and must be paid for by the customer.]
With the binding order you declare that you agree to the total price for the ordered products. After the binding order, the price can no longer be adjusted.
CELTAS LIBRES reserves the right to change prices at any time. The products are charged on the basis of the prices offered at the time the binding order was placed.
5. Terms of Payment/Credit Check
Orders are generally due for payment immediately.
The customer has the option of paying with the means of payment that are displayed on the website or during the ordering process. These may change from time to time and by country. In addition, we reserve the right not to offer certain payment methods in specific individual cases and to refer to other payment methods we use (e.g. to hedge our credit risk only those according to the respective credit rating). CELTAS LIBRES is expressly authorized by the customer to carry out credit checks at its own discretion and, if necessary, to pass on customer data to third parties for this purpose.
With the choice of the means of payment, the customer authorizes the payment either by entering the credit card data or access data of a payment service provider. The customer authorizes CELTAS LIBRES to receive or collect payments in the appropriate way. Should there be any chargebacks, CELTAS LIBRES is entitled to reimbursement of the associated costs and bank processing fees. Furthermore, CELTAS LIBRES is not liable for any fees or other amounts that the card issuer or your bank may charge you as a result of processing your payment in accordance with your order.
If you pay with a credit card or an alternative payment method, we reserve the right to check the validity of the card, check the availability parameters for collection and address details and request authorization from the card issuer or payment provider. You also confirm that the credit card is valid and that the payment details entered are correct. If the payment is refused, CELTAS LIBRES reserves the right to cancel the order and stop shipping the products. In this case we will contact you immediately.
When paying by invoice, the customer receives the invoice with a payment slip with the delivery of the goods or by e-mail. Payment must be made using the payment slip within the payment period specified on the invoice. If payment is not made on time, CELTAS LIBRES is entitled to offset its expenses for each reminder of at least CHF 50 and other costs associated with the collection as well as the statutory default interest. Should it become necessary to initiate a debt enforcement process, we will charge an additional processing fee of at least CHF 200.

Consequences of revocation

The repayment depends on the payment method originally used and is always made to the associated account that was used for the payment, unless something else was expressly agreed with you; under no circumstances will you be charged fees for this repayment. Please ensure you have access to the account provided as CELTAS LIBRES accepts no liability in this regard.
We may refuse repayment until we have received the returned goods or until you have provided proof that you have returned the goods, whichever is earlier.

After receiving the products, the customer must immediately check them for correctness, completeness and possible damage. Errors or damage must be reported to CELTAS LIBRES within [5] working days. Defects that could not be discovered during a proper inspection and only appear later must be reported in writing immediately after their discovery. If you do not check the defect or report it promptly, the product will be deemed approved and you will no longer be entitled to make any claims against us.
The statutory warranty regulations against manufacturing defects/material or production defects apply. The warranty period is 2 years from receipt of the product. Excluded from the warranty are products that have been damaged through the buyer's own fault ([incorrect care or washing, fire, etc.]).
The customer's warranty claims are limited to [replacement delivery or rectification of defects/rectification to the exclusion of all other claims, in particular reduction or compensation for indirect and consequential damage].

The same applies to any gaps in these GTC.
16. Online dispute resolution [4]
The European Commission has set up an online platform for alternative dispute resolution procedures for consumers resident in the EU, which provides for an out-of-court procedure for the settlement of all disputes in connection with and arising from online sales contracts.

The place of jurisdiction for natural persons is the registered office of CELTAS LIBRES or at the customer's place of residence. For legal entities, the exclusive place of jurisdiction is the registered office of CELTAS LIBRES.
