Article 3: Availability

Despite the fact that the online catalogue and e-commerce website are assembled with the utmost care, it is still possible that information may be incomplete, contains material errors, or is not up to date. Obvious mistakes or errors in the product selection are not binding for Rockavelli. With respect to the accuracy and completeness of the provided information, Rockavelli is solely bound to obligation of means. Rockavelli is in no way liable in the event of obvious material or printing errors.

If the Consumer has specific questions about for instance sizes, colour, availability, delivery terms or method, we ask the Consumer to contact our Consumer service department in advance (support@rockavelli.eu).

The product selection is valid while stocks last and may at any time be changed or withdrawn by Rockavelli. Rockavelli cannot be held liable for the non-availability of a product. If an offer is for a limited duration or subject to conditions, this will be explicitly stated in the offer.

All invoices and deliveries must be paid to the address of Rockavelli BV, namely Brabançonnestraat 123, 3000 Leuven, Belgium.

 

The ordering procedure in Rockavelli’s webshop consists of following consecutive steps:

1. Choose product.

2. Select options.

3. Add to cart.

4. Check-out (go to payment).

5. Complete the information (name, address etc.) requested.

Article 5: Delivery and execution of the agreement

 

Articles ordered via this webshop will be delivered worldwide.

 

Unless otherwise agreed or explicitly determined otherwise, the goods shall be delivered to the shipment address provided by the Consumer within 30 days of receipt of the order.

 

Delivery occurs by mail or freight transport (truck, train, ship or plane) and is organised by the transport company contracted by Rockavelli

 

Any freight, shipment or postage charges are borne by the Consumer, except if the order exceeds the amount of:

• for shipment to any country, 100 EURO.

 

Any visible damage to and/or qualitative deficiencies of an article or other deficiency in the delivery must be reported immediately by the Consumer to Rockavelli.

 

The risk due to loss or damage is transferred to the Consumer at the time the goods have been physically received by the Consumer (or a third party indicated by the Consumer that is not the carrier). However, the risk transfers to the Consumer upon delivery to the carrier when the carrier received the commission to transport the goods and this option was not offered by Rockavelli.

 

 

Article 6: Retention of title

 

Delivered articles remain the exclusive property of Rockavelli until the moment the Consumer pays for the goods in full.

If necessary, the Consumer undertakes to inform third parties of the retention of title belonging to Rockavelli, e.g. to anyone who would attempt to seize articles that are not fully paid for.

 

 

Article 7: Right of withdrawal 

 

The provisions of this article apply solely to Consumers in their capacity as consumers purchasing articles online from Rockavelli.

 

The Consumer has the right to withdraw from the agreement within a period of 14 calendar days without giving reasons.

 

The right of withdrawal period will expire: 1) 14 calendar days after the day that the goods were physically received by the Consumer or a third party indicated by the Consumer that is not the carrier OR 2), in case of separate deliveries of goods from the same order, 14 calendardays after the day that the last of the goods was physically received by the Consumer or a third party indicated by the Consumer that is not the carrier.

 

To exercise the right of withdrawal, the Consumer must notify Rockavelli. The Consumer may do so by  e-mail at  support@rockavelli.eu. The Consumer may also notify Rockavelli via the contact page at our website www.rockavelli.com, in which case we will promptly send the Consumer a confirmation receipt by e-mail.

 

The Consumer may use the attached template for withdrawal or any other unambiguous statement of withdrawal.

 

To comply with the withdrawal period, the Consumer must send a notification of their decision to exercise the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

 

The Consumer has to send back or hand over the goods without delay - and in any event, no later than 14 calendar days from the day that the Consumer notified Rockavelli of the decision to withdraw from the agreement - to Rockavelli, Brabançonnestraat 123, 3000 Leuven, Belgium. The Consumer is on time if they have sent back the goods before this period of 14 calendar days has expired.

 

The costs for returning the goods shall be borne by the Consumer. 

 

Only articles that are returned in perfect condition and in their original packaging, along with all accessories, instructions and invoice or sales receipt can be returned.

 

If the returned product is reduced in value in any way, Rockavelli is entitled to hold the Consumer liable and demand compensation for each depreciation in value of the goods that is due to the Consumer’s use of the goods that goes beyond what is necessary in order to determine the nature, characteristics and operation of the goods.  

 

All returned items are carefully examined. The basic principle here  is that the Consumer may only inspect the article in the same way as he would be allowed to do in a physical store. Returned items may have been tried on carefully, but should not have been actually used yet.  If an article has undergone a reduction in value due to the way it was used by the Consumer, this loss of value will be charged to the Consumer.

 

If the Consumer withdraws from the agreement, Rockavelli shall refund all payments, including standard shipment costs, received from the Consumer up until that time. Any additional costs resulting from the Consumer choosing a delivery method other than the cheapest standard delivery method offered by Rockavelli will not be refunded.  If an item has undergone a reduction in value due to the way it was handled by the  Consumer, Rockavelli will deduct this loss of value from the reimbursement.

 

Rockavelli may withhold the reimbursement until Rockavelli has received all the goods back and has had the time to inspect these, or until the Consumer has demonstrated that he has sent back the goods, whichever is earliest. 

 

Rockavelli shall repay the Consumer using the same means of payment as the Consumer used in the initial transaction, unless the Consumer explicitly agreed otherwise. In any case, the Consumer will not be charged any costs in connection with such repayment.

 

The Consumer may not exercise the right of withdrawal for:

• the provision or supply of goods or services whose price depends on fluctuations in the financial market that Rockavelli has no influence upon and that may occur within the withdrawal period;

• the delivery of goods manufactured according to the Consumer’s specifications or that are clearly destined for a specific person.

 

 

Article 8: Guarantee 

 

The Consumer has certain legal rights under the Act of 20 March 2022 concerning the protection of consumers when purchasing consumer goods. This statutory guarantee applies from the date of delivery to the first owner.

 

Upon detection of a deficiency, the Consumer must inform Rockavelli (support@rockavelli.eu) as soon as possible. In any case, any deficiency must be reported by the Consumer within two months of detection. Hereafter, all rights to repair or replacement are void.

 

To make a claim under the guarantee, the Consumer must provide some proof of purchase (invoice or sales receipt).

 

The Consumer is advised to return the product in its original packaging. In any case the Consumer must return the product to Rockavelli in packaging at least as strong and damage proof as the packaging in which the product was originally delivered to the Consumer. Rockavelli is entitled to hold the Consumer responsible and demand compensation for any damage to the returned product caused by unappropriate packaging.

The guarantee is never applicable when there are deficiencies that arise as a result of accidents, neglect, dropping the product, using  the product in a way that is inconsistent with the purpose for which it was designed, failure to follow the washing, ironing, care and other instructions, modifications or alterations made to the product, rough usage, poor maintenance, or any other abnormal or incorrect use.

 

 

Article 9: Consumer service

Rockavelli’s Consumer service can be reached by  e-mail at support@rockavelli.eu or by postal letter addressed to following address: Brabançonnestraat 123, 3000 Leuven, Belgium. Complaints can be submitted to Rockavelli’s Consumer service through either of these two ways.

 

 

Article 10: Penalties for non-payment

Without prejudice to the exercise of any other rights that Rockavelli is entitled to, the Consumer owes interest at a rate of 10% per year on the non-paid amount in the case of non- or late payment starting ipso jure on the date of the breach of contract and without notice. Furthermore, the Consumer owes ipso jure and without notice a flat-rate compensation of 10% of the pertinent amount, with a minimum of 25 euro per invoice.

Without prejudice to the foregoing, Rockavelli is entitled to take back the unpaid or not fully paid articles.
