For the purpose of these general terms and conditions, a Consumer is any individual entering into the contract for a purpose not related to his or her professional activity.

1.2 The present GTC shall prevail over any separate terms put forward by the Consumer. In this context any condition proposed by the Consumer – in whatsoever form – shall not be applicable.

2.3 The offers from ORA on the Shop reflect a full and accurate description of the offered products in order to inform the Consumer as correct as possible. The pictures of the products on the Shop are a true reflection of the offered products. If an offer is limited in time or subject to conditions, this will be explicitly stated in this specific offer of ORA on the Shop.

2.4 Once (a) product(s) is (are) selected, the applicable price, the expected delivery date, any extra charges, the shipping costs, customs duties and similar public charges (the ‘Costs’) will be clearly shown on the Shop. An expected delivery date means the date on which ORA hands over the specific product to a carrier, provided, however, that any such expected delivery date be only approximate and may therefore be exceeded by up to five business days.

2.5 By making an order on the Shop, the Consumer makes a binding offer to purchase the selected product. Without undue delay upon receipt of the order, a confirmation of receipt shall be sent by ORA to the Consumer via E-mail. This confirmation E-mail shall not constitute an acceptance of the order. The order shall be deemed accepted by ORA upon subsequent (E-mail) acceptance of the order.

3.1 All prices of the products shown on the Shop include VAT where applicable.

3.2 The Consumer shall bear all the Costs. The Costs include the costs for a transport insurance against the usual risks of transportation.

  • use the model withdrawal form as set out in Annex I and withheld on the website of ORA; or:
  • make any other unequivocal statement setting out his decision to withdraw from the purchase.

5.4 The Consumer shall have exercised his right of withdrawal within the withdrawal as mentioned in 5.1 and 5.2 if the communication concerning the exercise of the right of withdrawal is sent by the Consumer before that period has expired.

5.6 ORA shall reimburse all payments received from the Consumer, including, if applicable, the costs of delivery without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which he is informed of the Consumer’s decision to withdraw from the contract in accordance with 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4.

5.7 ORA shall carry out the reimbursement referred to in 5.6 using the same means of payment as the Consumer used for the initial transaction, unless the Consumer has expressly agreed otherwise and provided that the Consumer does not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

6.1 ORA hall be liable to the Consumer for any lack of conformity that exists at the time the products were delivered.

6.2 In the case of a lack of conformity, the Consumer shall be entitled to have the products brought into conformity free of charge by repair or replacement, in accordance with paragraph 3, or to have an appropriate reduction made in the price or the contract rescinded with regard to those products, in accordance with paragraphs 6.5 and 6.6.

6.3 In the first place, the Consumer may require the seller to repair the products or he may require the seller to replace them, in either case free of charge, unless this is impossible or disproportionate. A remedy shall be deemed to be disproportionate if it imposes costs on the seller which, in comparison with the alternative remedy, are unreasonable, taking into account:

  • the value the products would have if there were no lack of conformity,
  • the significance of the lack of conformity, and
  • whether the alternative remedy could be completed without significant inconvenience to the Consumer.

Any repair or replacement shall be completed within a reasonable time and without any significant inconvenience to the Consumer, taking account of the nature of the products and the purpose for which the Consumer required the products.

6.4 The terms ‘free of charge’ in 6.2 and 6.3 refer to the necessary costs incurred to bring the products into conformity, particularly the cost of postage, labor and materials.

6.5 The Consumer may require an appropriate reduction of the price or have the contract rescinded: · if the Consumer is entitled to neither repair nor replacement, · if the seller has not completed the remedy within a reasonable time, or · if the seller has not completed the remedy without significant inconvenience to the Consumer.

6.6 The Consumer is not entitled to have the contract rescinded if the lack of conformity is minor.

6.7 The seller shall be held liable under 6.1 where the lack of conformity becomes apparent within two years as from delivery of the products. Furthermore, the Consumer must inform ORA of the lack of conformity within a period of two months from the date on which he detected such lack of conformity.

6.8 Without any limitation of the statutory warranty rights of the Consumer, the voluntary guarantee of ORA is subject to the following additional conditions:

  • The guarantee does not cover damages caused by inappropriate or unspecified use according to the fields of use for the particular product as described on the website of ORA and the Shop, as for example: neglect of product (lack of care and maintenance), modifications made to the product(s), or a crash/incident.
