Right of Free Resolution

In accordance with Decree-Law No. 24/2014 of February 14, the consumer has 14 days after receiving the goods to terminate the contract and return the goods. To do so, the consumer must notify REFIXE, Lda. of their decision to terminate the contract by means of an unequivocal statement (for example, a letter sent by mail, fax or email, in the latter case to the email address...). info@lovechocolate.eu (or use the form attached to these contractual conditions). The right of withdrawal must be exercised by sending the communication referred to in the previous paragraph within 14 days. The burden of proof that the right of withdrawal was exercised within the legal deadline rests exclusively with the consumer. The consumer must, within 14 days of the date on which they communicated their decision to withdraw from the contract, return and deliver the goods to the store where they were purchased. In case of withdrawal, the consumer is exclusively responsible for the cost of returning the goods. In case of withdrawal from this contract, all payments made will be refunded (except for supplementary costs arising from your choice of a delivery method other than the least expensive standard delivery method offered by us), without undue delay and in any case. REFIXE, Ltda., may withhold reimbursement until the goods are received or until the consumer provides irrefutable proof of the return of the goods. Without prejudice to the retention provided for in the preceding paragraph, failure to comply with the obligation to reimburse within 14 days of the date of receipt of the resolution shall result in double reimbursement, without prejudice to the consumer's right to compensation for material and moral damages. The consumer must preserve the goods in such a way as to be able to return them in proper condition for use. The exercise of the right of free resolution does not prejudice the consumer's right to inspect, with due care, the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods. The consumer is responsible for the depreciation of the goods if the handling carried out to inspect the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods exceeds the handling that is usually permitted in commercial establishments. Upon exercising the right of withdrawal, the consumer will be refunded the price paid less the amount corresponding to the depreciation. If the depreciation is total, there is no refund.

Exclusion of the right to withdraw from the contract

The right to freely terminate the contract does not exist in the following situations: – Supply of sealed goods that cannot be returned for reasons of health protection or hygiene when opened after delivery; – Supply of sealed audio or video recordings or sealed computer programs, from which the consumer has removed the tamper-evident seal after delivery; – Supply of newspapers, periodicals or magazines, with the exception of subscription contracts for the delivery of these publications; – Without prejudice to the exercise of rights arising from the legal guarantee of consumer goods, the following types of products are excluded from the right of free termination: • Cosmetics, beauty and personal hygiene products, underwear, food supplements, vitamins, intimate products; • Audio and video recordings, discs and computer programs from which the consumer has removed the tamper-evident seal.
