General Contracting (Purchase) Terms and Conditions and Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter: “General Contracting Terms and Conditions”) of the online Webshop of iBlue.

Customer / Consumer accepts this Terms and Conditions at the same time as ordering through the website. Prodom Ltd. reserves the right to change the Terms of Service at any time without prior notice to the Customer / Consumer.

Buyer / Consumer acknowledges that after the order made in the Webshop, a sales and purchase agreement is concluded between remote customers (Customer / Consumer and Prodom Ltd.). Customer / Consumer expressly acknowledges that ordering / buying in the Webshop entails a payment obligation.

1. Purpose of the General Contracting Terms and Conditions

1.1 These General Contracting Terms and Conditions include the rules pertaining to purchases (including the operation of the Webshop, the orders and payments) in the online shop (“Webshop”) operated by iBlue Innovations (hereinafter: “Service Provider”) on its website at www.iblue.eu , as well as the rights of the customers.

1.2 The parties enter into contracts for the sale and purchase of individual products (moveable properties) through the Webshop. The individual sale and purchase agreements are established for a definite term, in order to enable the customer (buyer) to acquire the ownership of the products ordered by them (and not including the deadlines for the enforcement of the customer’s claims arising from the default, late or faulty performance of violation of contract by the Service Provider).

1.3 Whenever goods are purchased through the Webshop, typically a consumer contract is concluded by the parties within the framework of a remote sales system organised for the supply of the product covered by the contract without the concurrent physical presence of the parties, whereby the parties use only devices enabling communication between remote parties, i.e. a device that is suitable for providing contractual declarations in the absence of the parties in order to enter into the contract. For the purposes of the Webshop, the device that facilitates communication between the remote parties is the electronic online connection which is established through the computer devices operated by the parties.

1.4 The Service Provider has established the General Contracting Terms and Conditions for the purposes of establishing several contracts between remote parties unilaterally, without the involvement of the remote parties in advance, and they have not been discussed with the individual parties.

1.5 If you intend to become a customer or active user of the Webshop, please read carefully the General Contracting Terms and Conditions and use our services only if you agree with all their provisions and accept them as binding. By using the Webshop, the users accept that they are bound by the provisions of the General Contracting Terms and Conditions while using the services of the Webshop. If the Webshop is used in any way, also including visits that are not concluded with a purchase, the provisions of the General Contracting Terms and Conditions shall prevail.

1.6 The General Contracting Terms and Conditions are a document prepared in English language in electronic form and do not refer to contracts established based on them or to the Codes of Conduct applicable to the activities of the Service Provider, because the Code of Conduct defined in the Act on the Prohibition of Unfair Trading Practices towards Consumers does not apply to the activities of the Service Provider.

1.7 We shall make every effort to ensure our website is free of errors and viruses. On the other hand, it is your responsibility to make sure you visit and use the website via equipment offering sufficient protection against virus attacks. Accordingly, we shall not be held liable for any damage to the equipment you use and any data contained on such equipment.

4.2 The Webshop customers may be natural persons of major age and full capacity of action or legal entities.

5. Products

5.1 Products, equipped with a detailed description and offered on the pages of the Webshop are available for purchase at the Webshop.

5.2 In the Webshop the Service Provider indicates in detail the name and description of the traded products and displays photos of them and their packaging. In view of the manufacturing process, the images displayed on the data sheet of the products may differ from reality, they are only for illustration. We shall not be liable for any difference between the image displayed in the Webshop and the actual layout of the product. The user’s guides of the relevant products can be downloaded from the relevant subpages of the Webshop. Please read carefully the user’s guide before buying in particular with regard to the possible provisions limiting and excluding liability.

5.3 The products may be purchased from the Service Provider through the Webshop within the framework of online parcel trade, in the course of which the product ordered are delivered to the customer by the Transport Provider. The Service Provider does not operate any point for customers where the products can be purchased or the purchased products could be collected in person.

6. The purchase procedure

6.1 Purchasing in the Webshop does not require registration. However, while making a purchase, the customer may decide to create a user account on which the personal data provided during the purchase will be stored. The user account will make repeated purchases in the Webshop easier; registered users do not have to enter repeatedly their personal data when they log into their account.

6.2 To create a user account you need to provide an ID and a password based on which you will be identified later. We propose using a password of at least 8 and no more than 16 characters, containing small and capital letters, numbers and special characters. We do not recommend using passwords that are easy to guess or relate to person. If you forget your password, we shall send you a log-in password for a single use to your e-mail address provided during the registration, based on which you can change your forgotten password for a new one. The Service Provider stores the password in an encrypted and inaccessible form, and therefore is unable to decode or provide the original password to the customer.

6.3 If you change your mind while creating your account and delete the contents of your Basket, you can go back to the homepage of the Webshop at any time and all the data entered before will be deleted.

6.4 When making a purchase you will have to provide data to the Service Provider that are required for performing your order, issuing the invoice and delivering the product. These data also include your contact information, such as your e-mail address and telephone number.

6.5 To make a purchase, select the product from the products available in the Webshop and enter the quantity of the items, then click on the “Into the Basket” button to select them for the order. This will take you to the page listing the purchase products (“Basket”) where you can check the actual status of your purchase. Here you can delete the selected products from the Basket (“Delete” icon), modify the quantity and, by clicking on the “Purchase process” button, return to the Webshop interface and purchase further products without deleting the products already in your Basket. Click on the “Basket” icon during the purchase process to view the list of the products intended to be purchased.

6.6 If you have a discount coupon, you may claim your discount by entering the code (coupon code) prior to finalising the products in your “Basket”. To do that, enter the coupon code into the right box and click on the “Use coupon code” button. The Webshop invoicing system will automatically apply the discount and calculate the payable amount accordingly. The system monitors the already used coupons, as each coupon may only be used once. The system is unable to verify the validity of the use of the coupons, so if you are a coupon holder, please handle it with the required security as the Service Provider excludes any liability for the use of coupons without the entitlement. Nonetheless, the Service Provider reserves the right to investigate the entitlement to use the coupon and to withdraw the discount even subsequently, when it finds that it was claimed incorrectly.

6.7 When you have finished your purchase, finalise the content of your “Basket” by pressing the “Proceed to payment” button. You will be re-directed to the “Payments” where, when you did not enter with your user account, you may register yourself or may enter your personal data required for performing the order if you intend to make a purchase without using your account. Here you can also choose from the payment methods or, if you have changed your mind, you can also cancel the purchase by leaving the page. By clicking on the “Submit order” button, your order will be finalised and you will be re-directed to the payment provider’s page that matches your selected payment method where you should follow the instructions. If you chose payment upon delivery, you have nothing else to do until the delivery is made. If you chose bank transfer or card payment, please make your payment according to the instructions provided on the payment provider’s website.

6.8 If you have a re-seller code, you can claim the discount by using your re-seller code. In order to do that, you will be asked to enter the re-seller code in the “Payments” and enter the data of your re-seller code for invoicing. The Webshop invoicing system will automatically apply the discount and calculate the payable amount accordingly.

6.9 By submitting an order you will have a payment obligation. Order the products only when you can pay for them and you can also cover the costs detailed in Section 11. If a parcel is returned to us uncollected, we can send it again only when the consideration for the products and the related fees and charges have been paid by transfer in advance.

7. Order processing and performance

7.1 Orders are processed partly in person and partly through automated data processing. Personal processing of orders takes place between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., with automated tools, with the exception of planned and unplanned shutdowns, in 7*24 hours. Orders may be placed in 7*24 hours, apart from scheduled and unscheduled shutdowns.

7.2 All orders will be confirmed via e-mail, sent to your electronic mail address. The purchase process is completed when the confirmation e-mail is delivered. If you do not receive that confirmation within 48 hours (and the message -mail is not automatically sent to the spam box of your e-mail system), please contact us by using any contact information provided. The Service Provider excludes liability for undeliverable confirmations that are the consequence of the inaccuracy of the data provided by the customer, or the fact that the customer’s mailbox is full.

7.3 If the Service Provider does not fulfil an obligation undertaken in the contract because the product specified in the contract is not available, it will immediately inform the customer about it and return the amount paid by the customer immediately but no later than within 8 (eight) working days.

7.4 The Service Provider shall not be held liable for changes in the technical characteristics, leaflets or descriptions of the individual products due to changes made by the manufacturer or without any prior notification due to any reason not attributable to it. The Service Provider reserves the right to reject already confirmed orders, if due to the changes referred to above it is not able to deliver the order or is unable to deliver as requested. The order may be performed in part only following consultation with the customer. If the purchase price is paid in advance, the amount paid by the customer shall be returned to the sender immediately but no later than within 8 (eight) working days.

7.5 The Service Provider performs the orders received by 5 p.m. on a working day within the subsequent 3 working days in compliance with the provisions of Chapters 7 and 8, unless it is impossible due to any reason not attributable to it.

8. Delivery of the product

8.3 Delivery may be requested in the whole territory of the country taking into account the restrictions contained in Point 4.1 above.

The transportation and handling charge includes the fee of delivery of the product to the delivery address and the handling charges.

If delivery fails due to any reason occurring within your scope of interest, the price of the ordered product(s) and any other fees and charges will not be refunded.

14.6. The Service Provider manages personal data in order to fulfil orders, service customers, for billing purposes and for business communication purposes (direct marketing messages).

Such data will be managed for 30 (thirty) days after the data is generated.

14.8. If the Customer selects bank card payment, the Service Provider will not obtain the customer’s bank details; such payment events are conducted through PayPal as the payment service provider.

Information on how the customer’s personal data is managed is free of charge if the customer has not submitted requests for information on the same set of data to the Service Provider in the given year; otherwise, the information will be provided against a charge.
The Service Provider replies to inquiries from customers concerning personal data no later than within 30 (thirty) days.

14.11. The Service Provider manages data in compliance with data security expectations. In this respect, it takes all technical and organisational measures and develops all procedure rules that are required to meet data and secret protection requirements.

15.2. In case of complaints, you can contact us at the contact points specified herein. Complaints received will be investigated right away and remedied as needed. If you disagree with how your complaint is handled or it is not possible to investigate a complaint immediately, the complaint and your position will be recorded in a protocol, and you will receive a copy of that protocol no later than together with our reply to the merit of your complaint.

15.3. The Service Provider and the customer will attempt to settle any disputes amicably. In case of a consumer dispute, customers deemed to be consumers under the Hungarian Civil Code may propose proceedings before the arbitration board attached to the county (metropolitan) chamber of commerce and industry. The basic goal and function of arbitration board proceedings is to attempt to have the dispute between the consumer and the business entity settled by them, and if this is not possible, to decide the case in order to quickly, efficiently and simply enforce consumer rights.

The arbitration board having competence at your permanent or temporary residential address will have the competence to conduct the proceedings. In the absence of a place of residence in Hungary, the arbitration board having competence at the registered office of the business involved in the consumer dispute or of the entity authorised to represent that business will have the competence to conduct the proceedings.
