General Terms & Conditions of Sale for Online Purchases
These terms and conditions of sale ("Terms of Sale") define the rights and obligations of the parties in connection with the sale of products/services (hereinafter the "products/services") through the leftbrussels.com website (hereinafter the "website"). These terms of sale govern all purchases made on this website.
The terms of sale are concluded between, on one side, LEFT Brussels (14, Solleveldstreet, 1200 Brussels, Belgium, info@leftbrussels.com), affiliated to PRODUCTIONS ASSOCIEES ASBL, registered with the Banquet Carrefour des Enterprises (Central Enterprises Database) of Belgium under number 0896.755.397 (VAT BE 0896.755.397) with its registered office at 70, Emile Ferron Street, 1060 Brussels, Belgium, hereinafter the "seller", and, on the other side, the person placing the order, hereinafter the "purchaser". The purchaser and the seller are hereinafter jointly referred to as the "parties".
Any order implies that the purchaser has previously consulted and expressly accepts the terms of sale without this acceptance being subject to a handwritten signature on the part of the purchaser. In accordance with the provisions of the law of 9 July 2001 that lays down certain regulations concerning the legal framework for electronic signatures, the validation of the order form constitutes an electronic signature that, between the parties, has the same value as a handwritten signature and that constitutes proof of the order in its entirety and of the payability of the amounts due in performance of the order. The purchaser declares that he/she has full legal capacity.
The Products/Services on Sale
The products/services offered for sale are those that feature on the website, with a description of their essential characteristics, on the date and time when the purchaser consults them on the website, and within the limits of the stocks available. The seller uses all reasonable means to display the availability of products/services on the website in real time, but cannot be held responsible if a product is no longer available to honour the order. If one of the products/services ordered is unavailable, the purchaser will be informed of the fact and will have the option of changing the order or cancelling it, in the latter case being refunded for the amount of the order if payment has already been made.
Sales Price of the Products/Services Displayed
The price of each product is displayed on the website in euros and including VAT. This price is valid in the countries for which delivery is possible and does not include the costs of preparing and delivering the order, which are also payable by the purchaser, or the deduction of the amount of any discount or purchase voucher granted to the purchaser. The seller reserves the right to change his prices at any time, but the products/services will be invoiced on the basis of the purchase price that applied at the time of placing the order.
When placing the order the purchaser undertakes to pay, in addition to the purchase price of the products/services ordered, the costs of preparation and delivery (hereinafter the "costs"). These costs vary according to the type and quantity of products/services ordered and the chosen delivery method, and include VAT. The purchaser can consult the amount of these costs on the website and consult his "Basket" that shows a calculation of the total amount corresponding to the purchase price of the products/services plus costs. These costs remain payable and will not be reimbursed if the purchaser returns all or part of the order by virtue of his right of withdrawal.
The products/services are only delivered in the countries for which the website authorizes delivery. Any incorrect delivery address is the responsibility of the purchaser and may give rise to additional costs. The delivery times listed are not binding but are purely indicative. No late delivery may give rise to the payment of damages for the benefit of the purchaser. The seller is entitled to make part deliveries. In the case of the non-delivery of goods, any sums paid by the purchaser will be reimbursed with no interest or compensation.
