  1. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

A consumer-customer, and therefore not a business customer, has the right to cancel the contract within a period of 14 days, without having to state any reason. The withdrawal period expires 14 days after the date on which the client or a third person, other than the carrier, designated by the customer, takes physical possession of the item.

This right of withdrawal does not apply to items personalised according to the customer’s specifications.

To exercise his or her right of withdrawal, the customer must register his or her return request by logging on to his or her customer account.

Please put each item back in its original packaging and fill in the return slip. We do not do exchanges. For another size, a different model or different colour, please place a new order via the e-shop.

The refund will be made within 15 days after we receive the return. You will receive an email notifying you once the refund has been made.

When a customer cancels the contract, all payments he or she has made up to then, including delivery charges will be refunded immediately (with the exception of additional charges connected with the choice of delivery method other than the least expensive standard delivery we offer).

BY-OCTO may however hold on the refund until they have received the merchandise.

BY-OCTO refunds the customer by the same payment method used for the original purchase transaction, unless the customer has explicitly accepted another method.

The customer must send or hand back the goods without delay and in any case, no later than 14 days after the date he or she informed of his or her decision to cancel the contract.

The customer is in time when the merchandise is returned before the end of the 14 day period.

The customer shall pay the direct costs for returning the merchandise.

The customer will only be liable for depreciation of the items that results from use that went beyond what was necessary to determine the nature, features and serviceability of the items.

BY-OCTO reserves the right to not refund depreciation that stems from handling the merchandise beyond what was necessary to determine the nature, features and serviceability of the items. 

  1. CHANGES AND LANGUAGE VERSIONS

9.1 OCTOGONY reserves the right to change and update the present GTU, the GTCS, the Charter, and the Cookies Policy, access to the Website and its content at any time, subject to notification of the Users through the Website.

9.2 In the event of any discrepancies between the language versions of the present GTU, GTCS, Charter or the Cookies Policy, the French version shall take precedence.

  1. VALIDITY OF CONTRACTUAL CLAUSES

10.1 The fact that OCTOGONY does not invoke a clause of the present GTU at a certain

point in time may not be taken to mean that OCTOGONY waives its prerogative to assert its rights pursuant to said clause in due course.

10.2 The nullity, obsolescence or the unenforceable nature of all or part of one of the clauses above or

below shall not cause the nullity of the present GTU in their entirety. The clause that has been

found to be null and void, obsolete or unenforceable, either in full or in part, shall be deemed not to have been written. OCTOGONY hereby undertakes to replace the said clause by

another clause, which - insofar as possible – pursues the same aim.

11.1 The validity, interpretation and/or the performance of the GTU shall be governed by Belgian law, to the fullest extent permitted by the rules of applicable international private law.

11.2 Any disputes relating to the validity, interpretation and/or the performance of the GTU, shall be exclusively heard by the Courts and Tribunals of competent jurisdiction of the legal district of Brussels, to the fullest extent permitted by the rules of applicable international private law.

11.3 Before putting in place any steps to resolve a dispute through the courts, the Buyer and OCTOGONY hereby undertake to make every effort to resolve matters amicably. To this end, they shall first get in touch with each other, before seeking recourse to mediation, arbitration, or any other alternative methods of dispute resolution.
