  3. Every offer will contain such information that makes it clear to the Consumer what rights and obligations are involved in accepting the offer.

Article 4. Contract

  1. A contract will be concluded, subject to the provisions of section 4, at the moment at which the Consumer accepts the offer and the conditions thereby stipulated have been fulfilled.
  2. Inasmuch as the Consumer has accepted the offering by electronic channels, Pure Path shall immediately confirm by electronic channels receipt of acceptance of the offer. The Consumer can terminate the contract as long as Pure Path has not confirmed its acceptance.

Inasmuch as the contract comes about electronically, Pure Path shall take suitable technical and organisational measures to protect the electronic transmission of data and shall ensure a secure web environment. If the Consumer is able to pay electronically, Pure Path will take suitable security measures.

The Consumer shall in any event be deemed to have complied with the return deadline if he or she returns the product before the cooling-off period has expired.
  3. The Consumer shall return the product together with all supplied accessories, in its original condition and packaging, and in accordance with the reasonable and clear instructions provided by Pure Path.
  4. The risk and burden of proof for the correct and timely exercise of the right to cancel rests with the Consumer.

If delivery is delayed, or if the delivery cannot be implemented in full or at all, the Consumer will be notified accordingly no later than thirty days after the order was placed.

In the event that the Consumer discovers a defect in the quantity and/or quality of the delivered Products, he or she must notify Pure Path of the defect in writing immediately after discovery and no later than 8 days after delivery of the Products. If the Consumer demonstrates that he or she could not reasonably have avoided the defect (hidden defect), the Consumer must report the defect to Pure Path in writing within 8 days of its discovery, or at least within 8 days after the defect could reasonably have been discovered.
  2. The written notification referred to in this article must contain as detailed as possible
    description of the defect. In addition, the Consumer must also specify the invoice number and the packing slip belonging to the delivery, so that Pure Path can respond as adequately as possible to the complaint.
  3. In the event that a complaint is not reported within the period specified in this article and/or does not meet the requirements set out in this article, then all rights of the
    the Consumer in respect of the detected defect or the detected shortcoming lapse by operation of law.

In the event that Pure Path issues a product recall as described above, the Consumer must take all measures in that respect that Pure Path deems necessary and comply with all instructions from Pure Path in connection with the product recall and the Consumer will use its best endeavours to take as many loss-limiting measures as possible in that connection.

In these general terms and conditions force majeure pursuant to Book 6 Article 75 of the Dutch Civil Code is understood to mean, in addition to what is understood by this in law and case law, all external causes as well as the consequences thereof, foreseen or unforeseen, over which Pure Path cannot exercise any influence, but as a result of which Pure Path is unable to fulfil its obligations or it is so burdensome and/or disproportionately expensive for Pure Path to comply with its obligations that it cannot reasonably be expected to do so. Examples include strikes within the businesses of Pure Path or of third parties, as well as extreme weather conditions, machine breakdowns, machine malfunctions, failures in the supply of energy and the circumstance that Pure Path will not receive a performance that is important in connection with the performance to be delivered by itself, or will not receive such performance on time or properly. Pure Path is also entitled to invoke force majeure if the circumstance preventing (further) compliance with the Contract occurs after Pure Path should have fulfilled its obligation.
  2. During the period that the force majeure persists, the Parties may suspend the obligations ensuing from the contract. If this period lasts longer than two months, then either Pure Path or the Consumer is entitled to terminate the Contract, without any obligation to pay compensation to the other party.

The maximum collection costs are: 15% on outstanding amounts up to € 2,500; 10% on the subsequent € 2,500, and 5% on the subsequent € 5,000, with a minimum of € 40.

Article 18 – Liability

  1. If it is established in law or otherwise that Pure Path is liable to the Consumer for loss suffered in connection with the contract, or on account of a wrongful act, or on account of any other reason, then this liability, including any payment obligation on the basis of Book 6 Articles 230 and/or 271 of the Dutch Civil Code, will at all times be limited in its entirety in the following manner:
    a. Pure Path is not liable for loss arising from an assumption of Pure Path based on incorrect data/files provided by or on behalf of the Consumer;

    c. The liability of Pure Path, including any payment obligation on the basis of Book 6 Articles 230 and/or 271 of the Dutch Civil Code, to the Consumer is at all times limited to the amount paid out under Pure Path's liability insurance in the relevant case;
    d. In the event that Pure Path's liability insurance - for whatever reason - does not pay out, Pure Path's liability, including any payment obligation on the basis of Book 6 Articles 230 and/or 271 of the Dutch Civil Code, shall be limited to:
    - the net value of the invoice in respect of the products to which the event giving rise to the loss relates or if several invoices relate to the event giving rise to the loss, the net value of the last of this series of invoices sent by Pure Path to the Consumer prior to the moment the event giving rise to the loss occurred;
    - or, if the event giving rise to the loss is not based on the delivery of products, or if no invoice has been sent for this, the net value of the last invoice sent by Pure Path to the Consumer prior to the moment that the event giving rise to the loss occurred.
  2. In the event that Pure Path's liability insurance - for whatever reason - does not pay out, Pure Path's total liability, including any payment obligation on the basis of Book 6 Article 230 and/or 271 of the Dutch Civil Code, to the Consumer in respect of attributable failure to perform properly, in full or time, or for any other reason - irrespective of the number of events causing loss - shall in no event exceed the net value of the last invoice sent by Pure Path to the Consumer prior to the moment the loss-causing event occurred, on the understanding that Pure Path's total liability shall not exceed a maximum of €10,000.
  3. These limitations only do not apply in the event of intent or deliberate recklessness on the part of Pure Path and/or Pure Path's management.
  4. All employees of Pure Path can invoke the above provisions against the Consumer and, if necessary, also against third parties on an equal footing with Pure Path.
  5. Loss for which Pure Path can be held liable must be reported to Pure Path in writing as soon as possible but no later than 15 days after its occurrence, under penalty of forfeiture of the right to compensation for this loss. This period shall not apply if the Consumer can demonstrate that there is a valid reason why this loss could not have been reported earlier.
  6. A liability claim against Pure Path expires within 12 months after the Consumer has become aware of the event causing the loss or ought reasonably to have been aware of it.

    Article - 19 Indemnity

    1. The Consumer is liable for all damage, losses, costs and expenses, including but explicitly not limited to lawyer's fees, that Pure Path or third parties suffer as a result of or in connection with a breach of the contract by Consumer, regardless of whether that damage is caused by the Consumer, his or her personnel or another legal entity or natural person or property for which Pure Path is legally liable.
    2. The Consumer fully indemnifies Pure Path against all third-party claims in respect of damage, losses, costs and expenses of third parties arising from or related to a breach of the contract by Consumer, including but explicitly not limited to claims as referred to in Book 6 Article 85 in conjunction with Article 190 of the Dutch Civil Code, as well as the threshold amounts referred to in those articles, as well as claims for (i) infringement of any intellectual property right in connection with the delivered goods, (ii) product liability, product safety and relevant worldwide legislation in the field of product liability, physical injury and/or death, (iii) loss or damage to goods, and/or (iiii) alleged or actual violation by Pure Path of any of the warranties, representations, obligations, liabilities and/or obligations contained in this Contract, arising out of or relating to the Contract and/or Products or their use and exploitation or arising out of or relating to Pure Path's acts or breaches under this contract.
    3. If Pure Path should thereby be held liable by third parties, the Consumer is obliged to assist Pure Path both in and out of court and to immediately do all that may be expected of him or her in the relevant situation.
    4. The Consumer shall ensure that he or she has adequate insurance to cover the execution risk as referred to above. The Consumer must demonstrate to Pure Path on first request that he or she has fulfilled this obligation. The excess is at all times at the expense of the Consumer. If the Consumer can claim a payment under an insurance contract in connection with any possible liability towards Pure Path, the Consumer must ensure that these payments are made directly to Pure Path. Any potential payment to Pure Path under an insurance contract concluded by the Consumer does not affect Pure Path's claims for damages against the Consumer, insofar as these exceed the payment.
    5. The Consumer is always obliged to do everything in his or her power to limit the loss.
    6. Should the Consumer remain in default in taking adequate measures, then Pure Path shall be entitled to do so itself, without notice of default. All costs and damages on the part of the Pure Path and third parties thereby arising, shall be fully at the account and risk of the Consumer.

     

    Article 20 - Intellectual and industrial property rights

    1. The Consumer shall not, without the prior written consent of Pure Path, use the name or brands of Pure Path, nor use any words, images, or symbols which in the opinion of the Consumer may imply the involvement of Pure Path in, or its agreement to, any written or oral advertisement or presentation, logbook, plan, advice, brochure, newsletter, book or other published material prepared by Pure Path.
    2. The supply of products by Pure Path to the Consumer pursuant to a contract explicitly does not involve any transfer of any intellectual or industrial property right. All works that Pure Path makes available to the Consumer within the framework of the contract remain the property of Pure Path. The Consumer will only use these works for the benefit of and in the context of the execution of the contract, within the scope of the contract, and may not reproduce, disclose, or make available to third parties in any way, in whole or in part, or be used in any other way without the prior express and written consent of Pure Path.
    3. All intellectual and industrial property rights including but not limited to trademark, copyright, design and database rights, trade name rights, patent rights, which have been used or arose in the context of the execution of the contract and/or which are included in the Products or in an advice, including but not limited to products, production processes, applications, concepts, designs, drawings, inventions, models, techniques, works, methods, outcomes, creations, presentations, computer programs, know-how, data collections and other knowledge, belong exclusively to Pure Path, unless agreed otherwise.

    2. Pure Path is entitled to transfer its claims to payment to a third party.

    Article 22 - Disputes

    1. Contracts between Pure Path and the Consumer, to which these general terms and conditions apply, are governed exclusively by Dutch law, even if an obligation is wholly or partially carried out abroad or if the party involved in the legal relationship is domiciled there. The applicability of the 1980 Vienna Sales Convention (CISG) is expressly excluded.

    Article 23 Additional or different provisions

    Additional provisions or provisions that differ from these general terms and conditions may not be detrimental to the Consumer and should be recorded in writing, or in such a way that the Consumer can store them in an accessible manner.

    Article 24 - Amendment of these general terms and conditions

    Amendments to these general terms and conditions shall only come into effect once they have been published in an appropriate manner with the understanding that, in the event of amendments applicable during the validity of an offer, the provision most favorable to the Consumer shall prevail.
