Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy

Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy

The terms of use are valid from 20 July 2023.

1. Scope

These Decomasters (Y-ID: 3341349-3; hereinafter “Decomasters”) delivery conditions (hereinafter “Terms”) apply between Decomasters and the customer (hereinafter “Customer”) when the Customer uses the Decomasters decomasters.art online service (“Service”). The Service operates as an online marketplace where product manufacturers (“Merchant”) who have registered as merchants in the Service can list their products (“Product”) for sale through the Service and Customers can purchase Products from Merchants who are partners of Decomasters through the Service. These terms of delivery (“Terms”) apply between Decomasters and the Customer to the purchase of Products and to the transaction regarding their delivery, unless Decomasters and the Customer have agreed otherwise in writing.

The use of Decomasters’ services requires that the Customer accepts and complies with (i) these Terms, and (ii) accepts the Service’s privacy policy. The customer accepts the Terms valid at any given time by using the Service.

2. Orders and delivery

Decomasters acts as the operator of the online marketplace in the Service and takes care of receiving and invoicing the Customer’s order on behalf of the Merchant, as well as the general customer service of the Service and related complaints. The merchant is responsible for the customer service of his own brand (including, for example, product exchanges and complaints). A purchase contract is always created in the Service between the Customer and the Merchant selling the Product. Decomasters is not a Merchant, nor a party to the sale of the Product in the Service.

The customer places an order by selecting the desired Products in the Service’s shopping cart. Before placing a binding order, the Customer is presented with a summary of the contents of the Shopping Cart, which includes the Products ordered by the Customer, the Merchants selling the Products, the prices of the Products including shipping costs, and the estimated delivery times indicated by the Merchants.

After checking the contents of the shopping basket, the Customer can place a binding order by confirming his order according to the instructions given on the website. A binding order is created when the Customer sends the order to Decomasters, and when Decomasters has confirmed the order placed by the Customer by e-mail.

The Merchant delivers the Products to the Customer when Decomasters has confirmed the order to the Customer by e-mail and the Customer has made the payment in accordance with the payment terms. The Products ordered by the Customer are delivered to the address indicated by the Customer using the delivery method indicated in the service. The merchant may also send the products by letter. It should therefore be noted that such deliveries cannot be tracked using a tracking code.

If the delivery of the Products ordered by the Customer is delayed due to a reason attributable to the Merchant or the Customer (such as incorrect order information), Decomasters is not responsible for any damages caused by the delay. In this case, the possible compensation is agreed between the Merchant and the Customer.

3. Prices and terms of payment

The prices of the products are determined according to the currently valid price list. All prices include VAT. Decomasters and Merchants reserve the right to change the price list.

The products and their delivery costs are paid at the time of the order and the Customer must pay the purchase price of the Products at the time of the order using the payment methods below. The product must be cleared by customs if it is delivered from outside the EU. Costs arising from customs clearance are the responsibility of the Customer.

We use PayPal’s and WooPayments service to pay for products.

4. Delays

Decomasters has the right to charge delayed payment interest in accordance with the Interest Act (as it is valid at any given time). In addition to interest on late payment, Decomasters has the right to charge the Customer reasonable collection and reminder costs incurred by Decomasters for collecting the receivable.

5. Errors and complaints

The customer must check the delivered delivery to detect possible errors. If the ordered Products are missing from the delivery or the delivery is otherwise incorrect, the Customer must notify the Merchant by email without undue delay.

If the Customer has submitted a complaint to the Merchant, the Merchant primarily has the right to correct the error detected in the delivery, at its option. A secondarily detected error can be corrected by canceling the sale of the Product in question and reimbursing the purchase price to the Customer.

6. Right of return

Consumer customers have the right to cancel a transaction made in the Service’s online store within 14 days of receiving the ordered Products. If the Customer exercises his right of return, he must notify the Merchant by email and return the Products to the Merchant within the deadline. The merchant’s return address can be found in the order confirmation. The merchant will return the price of the Product to the Customer after receiving the Product.

After receiving the Product, the Merchant will refund the price of the Product to the Customer. The Product to be returned must be unused, in salable condition and, if possible, in the original packaging. Other stathan returns all parts of the Product.

The customer is responsible for the return shipping costs (excluding complaints). If the Customer returns the entire order from one Merchant, the Merchant will refund the original postage costs to the customer.

The merchant will return the price of the product to the Customer’s original payment method after receiving the product and checking its condition. When the customer returns the entire order from one Merchant, the original postage costs will also be refunded. The return appears on the bank statement as PayPal / WooPayments and in the additional information it says Decomasters.art.

The right of return does not apply to goods that are made to measure or that are modified according to the consumer’s requirements or to clearly meet personal needs. These are, for example, a knitted pack cut according to the customer’s wishes. Fresh cosmetics cannot be returned either. Made-to-order products are not products that the Customer has little influence on, for example by choosing the model or color of the product from the basic selection offered by the Merchant.

Not picking up the package is not a customer return. Returns will not be accepted if the Customer has not filled out the product return form.

7. Customer’s activity in the Service
