**Article 7: Right of Withdrawal**

The provisions of this article apply only to Customers who, in their capacity as consumers, purchase articles online from Vero bv (Ochahlii Mineralshop).

The Customer has the right to withdraw from the contract within 14 calendar days without giving any reason.

1. The withdrawal period expires 14 calendar days after the date on which the Customer or a third party designated by the Customer, who is not the carrier, takes physical possession of the goods.

2. For contracts where the Customer has ordered multiple goods in the same order which are delivered separately: "on which the Customer or a third party designated by the Customer, who is not the carrier, takes physical possession of the last good."

3. For contracts for the delivery of a good consisting of multiple shipments or parts: "on which the Customer or a third party designated by the Customer, who is not the carrier, takes physical possession of the last shipment or the last part."

To exercise the right of withdrawal, the Customer must inform Vero bv, Kloosterstraat 4, 8421 Vlissegem, Belgium, with company number BE0475397790, by an unequivocal statement (e.g., in writing by post, fax, or email) of his decision to withdraw from the contract. The Customer may use the attached model withdrawal form, but this is not obligatory.

If you allow the consumer to submit information on the withdrawal from the contract electronically via your website, insert the following text: "The Customer can also fill in and submit the model withdrawal form or any other clearly formulated statement electronically via our website www.ochahlii.be. If the Customer uses this option, we will send the Customer a confirmation of receipt of the withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g., by email) without delay." [Note: If you, as a business, offer the Customer the option to fill in and submit the withdrawal form or any other clearly formulated statement via your website, you must immediately inform the consumer of the receipt of the withdrawal on a durable medium.]

The Customer is requested to return the articles in their original condition and packaging, with all accessories supplied, and instructions. If the returned product is in any way reduced in value, Vero bv (Ochahlii Mineralshop) reserves the right to hold the Customer liable and claim damages for any depreciation of the goods resulting from the use of the goods by the Customer that goes beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics, and functioning of the goods.

All returned articles are carefully examined. The principle is that the consumer may only inspect the article as he would be allowed to do in a shop. Returned articles may have been tried on, but must not have been used. When an article has been depreciated due to the use of the Customer, this will be charged to the Customer. The safety tag must always be attached to the product in its original form, i.e., the tag intact.
