The Seller shall inform the users of the Dog Chef website and the Buyers by publishing a notification on this page. By continuing to use the Dog Chef website or to order Products even after the modification of these T&amp;C, the Buyer accepts the new T&amp;C that substitute the previous version.<br>1.3. These T&amp;C apply to both professional buyers and consumers. For the purposes of these T&amp;C, a consumer is any person acting for purposes not related to their professional activities.<br>1.4. If the Buyer is a professional buyer, the terms and conditions of the Buyer are expressly excluded, even if they are sent at a later date.<br>1.5. Placing an Order implies the acceptance of these T&amp;C.<br>1.6. The use of the website dogchef.com, dogchef.be, dogchef.fr, dogchef.lu, catchef.com, catchef.be or any other extension, by a user can only be accepted if the user is at least 13 years old. If the User is younger than eighteen years old, they may use the website only under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian. Any person younger than 13 years old cannot use the Dog Chef or Cat Chef website. The Seller reserves the right to ask any user of the Dog Chef or Cat Chef website to provide proof of their age. The Seller may block access to any user if it finds that this latter does not meet the criteria mentioned above.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"default__block container-fluid lg \">\n<p>Article 2 &#8211; Orders<br>2.1. An Order is an offer made by the Buyer to the Seller for the purchase of the product(s) specified in the Order. The Seller may send an order confirmation message that confirms that it has received the Buyer\u2019s Order and contains the details of the Buyer\u2019s Order (the Order Confirmation). Unless expressly stated in the Order Confirmation, such Order Confirmation is simply an acknowledgment of the Order and does not confirm that the Seller has accepted the Buyer\u2019s offer for the purchase of the Product(s)..<br>2.2. Only the Seller can accept the Buyer\u2019s Order and conclude a Contract with the Buyer once the Seller confirms such Contract. This Contract confirmation may be given in writing before or at the moment when the Product(s) is\/are sent or may be deduced from the delivery of the Product(s) to the Buyer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"default__block container-fluid lg \">\n<p>Article 3 \u2013 Price, invoice and payment<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"default__block container-fluid lg \">\n<p>3.1. Independently of the prices and promotions that the Buyer may have seen on the Seller\u2019s website or in the Seller\u2019s catalogues at any given moment, the prices are those published on the website at the moment when an Order is placed. The Seller shall verify the announced price to avoid unintentional substantial errors during the processing of the Order. If the correct price of a Product is higher than the price published on the website at the moment an Order is placed, the Seller may cancel the Order or inform the Buyer of the correct price and invite the Buyer to place a new Order at the correct price.<br>3.2. Unless expressly indicated otherwise, all prices are in EUR with VAT and other taxes included. The prices include all shipping costs. Other fees may apply in the event of additional services requested and confirmed by the Buyer.<br>3.3. In the event of Products ordered to be delivered outside the country from where the products are being shipped, the Buyer may be subject to import fees and duties that shall be collected once the package reaches the destination specified by the Buyer and such duties cannot be predicted by the Seller. All custom duties shall be borne by the Buyer.<br>3.4 If the Buyer requests an invoice or if they are a business, the Buyer accepts that they shall receive an electronic sales invoice.<br>3.5. Payments must be made online by credit card or any other accepted payment method via the payment platform made available on the Seller\u2019s website. Payments are immediately due and payable when an Order is placed. If a payment authorised by the Buyer when an Order is placed is subsequently cancelled, all fees and expenses incurred by the Seller for the collection of outstanding payments (including, without limitation, all reasonable lawyer fees, expert fees, legal costs and other procedural costs) shall be borne by the Buyer.<br>The Seller may agree to issue to the Buyer an invitation to pay that is payable by bank transfer within the payment deadline indicated on the invitation to pay (unless otherwise indicated, at the latest 7 days after the relevant delivery). In this case, all fees and expenses incurred by the Seller for the collection of outstanding payments (including, without limitation, all reasonable lawyer fees, expert fees, legal costs and other procedural costs) shall be borne by the Buyer. All payments made by the Buyer must first be used to pay any legal and extrajudicial costs and any interests incurred and will be deducted from the oldest invitation to pay in circulation, even if the Buyer mentions, on the payment, that the payment concerns a later invitation to pay.<br>If the Seller issues an invitation to pay to the Buyer and the Buyer does not pay the invitation to pay within the agreed payment deadline, the Seller may consider the Contract terminated. In this case, the Seller shall have no obligation to deliver the Products, or, if the Products have already been delivered, the Buyer shall be liable for the concerned amount as well as for the late payment compensation established below.<br>3.6. Without prejudice to the Seller&#8217;s rights, any payment request that remains unpaid on the due date will, after a free reminder sent to the consumer with an additional 14-day period as provided by the economic law code, bear compensation as follows: \u2022 1\u00b0 late payment interest, equal to the reference rate increased by eight percentage points, as provided in Article 5, paragraph 2, of the law of 2 August 2002 on combating late payment in commercial transactions. This interest is calculated on the outstanding amount; and \u2022 2\u00b0 a fixed compensation amounting to: o a) 20 euros if the outstanding balance is equal to or less than 150 euros; o b) 30 euros, plus 10% of the amount due for the portion between 150.01 and 500 euros, if the outstanding balance is between 150.01 and 500 euros; o c) 65 euros, plus 5% of the amount due for the portion above 500 euros, with a maximum of 2000 euros if the outstanding balance exceeds 500 euros. These amounts are intended to cover, on the one hand, the late payment interest on the debt, and on the other hand, all amicable debt collection costs.<br>Article 3bis \u2013 Subscriptions<br>3bis.1. Subscriptions are computerized services that allow Buyers to receive the Food products for their dog(s) and\/or cat(s) at regular and automatic intervals.<br>Subscriptions may be configured with the assistance of the Seller\u2019s website. The client may manage his subscription(s) in the \u201cMy Account\u201d section. In particular, he can modify or delete dates, modify or delete Products, modify or delete any subscriptions, and update his credit card.<br>As a result, the Buyer remains solely responsible of the dates and quantities of every subscription.<br>3bis.2. The subscription shall have an indefinite duration. Nevertheless, the parties may terminate the subscription at any moment via the client account (www.dogchef.com et\/or www.catchef.com) if the Buyer is the one terminating the subscription, or by email to the Buyer if the Seller is the one terminating the subscription. The cancellation via the customer account or email notification shall terminate immediately the subscription, although any Order Confirmation that have already been sent shall be honoured by the Seller and paid by the Buyer (unless this is cancelled by the Buyer within the 24 hours of the Confirmation email of the order).<br>A few days before each date of expiry, the subscribed Buyer shall receive an Order Confirmation to warn him about his next delivery. The Products that are part of the subscription, plus any additions made to the basket during this period, as eventually modified by the Buyer within 24 hours from the delivery of the Order Confirmation, will then be transformed into a binding order and the Buyer\u2019s bank card will be charged (or an invitation to pay by bank transfer shall be sent, when applicable) and the Products will be shipped.<br>Exceptional delivery delays remain possible, and they shall be the responsibility of the carrier. The Seller cannot be held liable with respect to this issue.<br>3bis.3. When the subscribed Buyer uses the payment platform on the Seller\u2019s website through his credit card or domiciliation, he authorises the Seller to charge the Buyer\u2019s card\/account for the amount of the Products included in the subscription a few days before the scheduled delivery date. The subscribed Buyer who has opted to pay by any other payment method shall receive an invitation to pay in the Order Confirmation and\/or on the Dog Chef website. An invoice may be issued at the express request of the Buyer. The Seller shall not be obliged in any way, at its sole discretion, to deliver any order that is not paid by the Buyer before the scheduled delivery date.<br>3bis.4. If a Buyer purchases a subscription for a Product that is under promotion at the moment of the subscription, the promotion shall be applied for the duration of the relevant promotion. For any subsequent deliveries, the subscribed Buyer shall be charged the normal (non-promotional) price of the Product. If a promotion occurs during the subscription, the Buyer shall benefit from said promotion only at the discretionary assessment of the Seller.<br>3bis.5. The Seller reserves the right to modify the price(s) of the Product(s) during the full duration of the Buyer\u2019s subscription. Nevertheless, the Buyer will then have the right to immediately terminate his subscription and any Order Confirmation that may be in progress shall be equal to the effective price before the price modification established by the Seller.<br>3bis 6. The Seller reserves the right to terminate a Buyer&#8217;s subscription and\/or any commercial relationship with them, at any time, at its sole discretion.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"default__block container-fluid lg \">\n<p>Article 3ter \u2013 Vouchers, Discount Codes, Gift Certificates<br>3ter.1. The Seller may offer gift certificates, discount codes and other types of vouchers that must be activated by email so that the Buyer may receive the products of the Seller. The vouchers will no longer be valid once they have been used on the website.<br>3ter.2. Any meals offered or discounts proposed are meant to give new clients the opportunity to try out the Seller. Unless expressly indicated otherwise, for example in the event of a discount aimed at existing clients, the discount codes and vouchers apply only to new subscriptions\/purchases to the Seller. If you already have a subscription or are already client, you cannot exchange the discount code or voucher. A discount code can be used only once per household. Only one account per household is authorised.<br>3ter.3. The Seller shall determine freely if a person may benefit from a free meal or a discount and may limit the conditions or the duration in order to avoid any abuse. We may conduct checks by household in order to avoid any abuse concerning the free meals or the discounts. We may determine if you can benefit from a discount on the basis of the data used for an actual or recent contract, specifically your name, phone number, delivery address, email address and payment method.<br>3ter.4. Unless expressly stated otherwise, certain products or services may be excluded from the discount, in particular products subject to a premium and products subject to a one-off additional charge.<br>3ter.5. The discount codes and the vouchers can be used only once on the Seller\u2019s website. The discount codes and the vouchers cannot be combined with other offers, nor can they be exchanged for cash.

Notwithstanding any contrary provision, any percentage reduction will be applied to a maximum amount of 500 euros including VAT, even if the relevant order amount exceeds this.<br>3ter.6.

The Buyer is not entitled to request the termination of the Contract or to claim damages in the event of force majeure.<br>11.3. If the continuous performance of the contractual obligations by a party to the Contract becomes excessively burdensome because of an event that is beyond the reasonable control of this party and whose consequences cannot be reasonably be avoided or surmounted (hardship), the parties are obligated, within a reasonable period of time starting from the invocation of this hardship clause, to negotiate alternative contractual provisions that allow them to reasonably mitigate the consequences of the unforeseeable event. If the parties are unable to reach an agreement on these alternative contractual provisions, each party has the right to terminate the contract.<br>Article 12 \u2013 Severability<br>If a provision of the Contract is deemed illegal, null, invalid or unenforceable pursuant to the laws of any jurisdiction, the provision shall be void only within the limits of this unenforceability or invalidity, and this shall not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of the rest of the Contract in this jurisdiction. Furthermore, the legality, validity and enforceability of the Contract as a whole shall not be affected in other jurisdictions.<br>Article 13 \u2013 Privacy Policy<br>The Buyer expressly agrees to the appended Privacy Policy.<br>Article 14 \u2013 Dispute Resolution \u2013 Applicable Law \u2013 Competent Jurisdiction<br>14.1. All disputes between the Seller and the Buyer are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts in the district where the registered office of the Seller is located.<br>14.2. The Contract shall be governed and must be interpreted in accordance with Belgian law, at the exclusion of the Vienna Convention of 1980 concerning the international sale of goods.<br>Impressum<br>Company Name: Fresh Chef SRL<br>Address: 26 Avenue Eug\u00e8ne Godaux, 1150 Brussels, Belgium<br>Phone: +32 2 808 25 19<br>Email: hello@dogchef.com<br>Company Number: 0650765476<br>NACE Code: 10.920 (Manufacture of pet food)<br>VAT Number: BE0650765476<br>Publication Director: Alexandre Cardon<br>Site Hosting: Amazon Web Services EMEA SARL<br>Host Address: 8 AV JOHN F KENNEDY L 1855, LUXEMBOURG LUXEMBOURG<br>Host Phone: NA<br>Data Protection Officer: Alexis d\u2019Oultremont<br>WITHDRAWAL FORM TEMPLATE<br>You can fill out and return this form by email (or mail if you prefer) if you wish to withdraw from your Dog Chef subscription.
