2. Scope

 

2.1 Purpose

These General Terms and Conditions of Use and Sale (GTCUS) govern:

  • Access to and use of the Marketplace

  • The conditions of sale of products or services offered by Sellers

  • The respective responsibilities of the Marketplace, Sellers, and Customers

 

2.2 Acceptance

Any registration or order on the Marketplace implies unconditional acceptance of these GTCUS.

 

2.3 Parties concerned

  • The Marketplace: technical intermediation service provider

  • The Seller: independent professional offering products or services

  • The Customer: consumer or business purchasing via the Platform

 

 

3. The Contract

 

3.1 Formation of the contract

The consumer selects one or more products or services offered by one or more third-party sellers via the marketplace and places them in their virtual shopping cart. The consumer can modify the entered data or the cart contents at any time before final order validation.

 

3.2 Order confirmation

The order becomes firm and final as soon as the consumer clicks the button intended to confirm the order ("Order," "Validate," or equivalent). At that moment, the consumer makes a purchase offer to the concerned sellers.

 

3.3 Acceptance of the offer and contract conclusion

The contract between the consumer and each seller is concluded when the seller accepts the offer, which may be automatic via the platform or after explicit validation. The marketplace acts only as an intermediary and is not a party to the sales contract.

 

3.4 Electronic confirmation

Upon receipt of the acceptance of the offer by one or more sellers, the marketplace promptly sends the consumer an electronic confirmation of the conclusion of the contract(s). The consumer may cancel the order as long as they have not received this confirmation.

 

3.5 Data security

The marketplace takes all necessary technical and organizational measures to ensure the security of electronic data transmissions, including online payments.

 

3.6 Prior verification

Within the legal framework, the marketplace and sellers may conduct checks regarding the consumer's ability to meet payment obligations or other essential elements for contract conclusion. In justified doubt, the marketplace or sellers may refuse an order or impose specific conditions.

 

3.7 Post-contract information

After the contract conclusion, each seller must provide the consumer, in writing or on a durable medium accessible (email, customer space), with the following information:

a) The seller’s visiting address where the consumer can submit complaints;

b) The conditions and modalities for exercising the right of withdrawal, or a clear statement that this right is excluded;

c) Information about after-sales service and applicable warranties;

d) The total price including VAT of products or services, any delivery fees, as well as payment, delivery, or execution terms;

f) The standard withdrawal form if the right of withdrawal applies.

 

3.8 Multiple deliveries

If the order includes multiple deliveries, the information mentioned in the previous paragraph must be provided at the first delivery.

 

 

4. Right of Withdrawal

 

4.1 Legal Right (14 days)
In accordance with articles VI.47 et seq. of the Belgian Code of Economic Law, the Consumer has the right to withdraw from a distance contract without giving any reason within 14 calendar days from the day of delivery of the goods.

4.2 Commercial Extension by Zondox (30 days free returns)
As a commercial gesture, Zondox extends the legal withdrawal period to 30 calendar days from delivery. During this extended period, the Consumer may return their purchase free of charge, provided the products are returned in their original condition and packaging.

 

4.3 Return Shipping Costs
For withdrawals made under the legal or extended 30-day period, return shipping costs are covered by Zondox, unless otherwise stated at the time of order. Visit the following page shipping & return for more information

 

4.4 Refund
Zondox will issue a full refund of all payments received, including delivery costs, within 5–7 business days of the withdrawal notification or, if later, upon receipt of the returned goods. This timeline is a commercial advantage granted by Zondox in addition to the legal obligation to reimburse within 14 days. Refunds are made using the same payment method as the original transaction.

 

5. Exceptions to Withdrawal

 

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:

  • Goods made to the Consumer’s specifications or clearly personalized.

  • Sealed goods not suitable for return due to health protection or hygiene reasons and unsealed after delivery.

  • Digital content not supplied on a tangible medium once performance has begun with the Consumer’s prior consent.

 

5. Exercise of the Right of Withdrawal and Consumer Obligations

 

5.1 How to exercise

The Consumer exercises the right:

  • Either via the standard form available in their customer account,

  • Or by any clear statement expressing the intention to withdraw.

The Consumer must return or deliver the product to the Seller within 14 days following the communication of the withdrawal decision.

Returns must be made:

  • With all provided accessories,

  • If possible, in the original packaging,

  • Following reasonable instructions from the Seller.

 

5.2 Behavior during the withdrawal period

During this period, the Consumer must handle the product carefully, only to determine its nature, characteristics, and proper functioning, as they could in a physical store.

The Consumer is only responsible for any diminished value if the handling goes beyond what is allowed.

 

 

6. Limits and Exclusions of the Right of Withdrawal

In accordance with Article VI.53 of the Economic Law Code, the right of withdrawal does not apply to:

  • Customized products or those made to order;

  • Perishable goods or goods subject to rapid deterioration;

  • Sealed goods that have been opened after delivery and cannot be returned for reasons of hygiene or health protection;

  • Digital content not provided on a physical medium if the download has started with the explicit consent of the Consumer;

  • Fully performed services with the prior agreement of the Consumer.

For the exclusion to be valid, the Seller must clearly inform the Consumer before the conclusion of the contract.

 

 

7. Effects of Withdrawal

 

7.1. Refund

The Seller shall refund all payments received (including initial delivery costs) no later than 14 days after receiving the withdrawal request, or upon recovery of the goods if earlier.

The refund is made using the same payment method unless the Consumer explicitly agrees otherwise.

 

7.2. Ancillary Agreements

The exercise of the right of withdrawal by the Consumer automatically terminates ancillary contracts, including associated warranties or subscriptions, without additional cost.

 

 

8. Delivery

 

8.1. Role of the Marketplace

The Marketplace acts as a technical intermediary between the Seller and the Buyer. As such:

  • Delivery responsibility lies with the third-party Seller with whom the contract is concluded.

  • The Marketplace commits to ensuring Sellers comply with their delivery obligations according to these terms.

 

8.2. Delivery Address

The delivery location is the address provided by the Buyer when placing the order.

Sellers are not obliged to accept deliveries outside Belgium unless otherwise indicated on their shop page.

If an incorrect or incomplete address is provided by the Buyer, or if delivery fails for reasons attributable to the Buyer (e.g., absence at delivery, inaccessible location), costs related to redelivery or failed delivery will be borne by the Buyer.

 

8.3. Delivery Times

Unless otherwise indicated or agreed:

  • The Seller commits to delivery the product(s) within 1-4 days of order confirmation.

  • In case of delay, stock shortage, or impossibility to fulfill, the Buyer will be informed no later than 4 days after order confirmation.

  • The Buyer may then:

    • Accept a new delivery timeframe;

    • Or cancel the contract without cost, with the Seller refunding the full amount within a reasonable time, no later than 30 days.

 

8.4. Transfer of Risks

Risk of loss or damage transfers to the Buyer:

  • Upon actual receipt of the product by the Buyer or a third party designated by them (other than the carrier),

  • Or, if the Buyer selects a carrier not offered by the Seller, upon handing over to that carrier.

Until then, the Seller alone bears transport risks.

 

8.5. Partial Delivery

If an order contains multiple products, they may be delivered separately. Each partial delivery will be notified.

Any non-conforming partial delivery entitles the Buyer to claim according to the article on disputes and guarantees.

 

8.6. Unavailability or Failed Delivery

If delivery cannot be completed due to reasons attributable to the Buyer, the Buyer may:

  • Either collect the parcel at a relay point or depot indicated by the carrier;

  • Or agree to a new delivery attempt (additional costs may apply).

If the parcel is not collected within the specified time, products will be returned to the Seller, who may charge the Buyer for return and redelivery costs.

 

 

9. Payment
