The risk with respect to any damage to or loss of the products will be transferred to the consumer as from the time at which the products are delivered.

FORCE MAJEURE

KITE LIFE is not liable for any damage as a result of a delay in the delivery or a failure to deliver that has been caused by circumstances that impede KITE LIFE from complying with its obligations, and that cannot be attributed to KITE LIFE because they cannot be blamed on KITE LIFE, and cannot be deemed to be for the KITE LIFE’s account in accordance with the law, a legal act or in accordance with generally accepted standards, such as – but not restricted to – war, threat of war, civil war, riots, a day of national mourning announced by the government, strikes, transport problems, trade limitations, problems with customs authorities, fire, flooding, earthquake or the bankruptcy of third parties engaged by KITE LIFE, a failure on the part of KITE LIFE’s suppliers to supply goods or a failure on the part of KITE LIFE’s suppliers to supply goods in a timely manner, interruptions in the supply of goods to be delivered by third parties, including water and electricity, and other serious interruptions in the business operations of KITE LIFE or third parties that it engages.

If as a result of a situation involving force majeure KITE LIFE fails to comply with its obligations under the agreement or fails to do so in a timely manner, KITE LIFE will be entitled to perform the agreement within a reasonable term or – if compliance within a reasonable term is not possible – to dissolve the agreement in whole or in part, without KITE LIFE being obliged to pay the consumer any compensation in that respect.

COMPLAINTS

The contact details of KITE LIFE to handle complaints can be found by clicking on the ‘Contact Us’ button on the Website.

The consumer will be obliged to inspect the product when it has been delivered and to notify KITE LIFE within 7 days after receiving the product that there are any visible defects or other complaints regarding the performance of the agreement. Such complaints must be submitted in writing and must be fully and clearly substantiated.

KITE LIFE will respond to any complaints that it receives within a term of 14 days after receipt. KITE LIFE will notify the consumer within a term of 14 days in the event that it is foreseeable that the complaint will require a longer term to be processed, stating the term within which the consumer can expect to receive an answer.

The consumer acknowledges that: minor deviations and deviations that are generally considered acceptable in respect of the quality, size, color, finishing, etc. of products cannot be avoided or are difficult to avoid and do not constitute a well founded reason to submit a complaint. Such complaints, and complaints regarding the removal of certain products from the Website, are not well founded. KITE LIFE will not be liable for any damage that the consumer sustains as a result of such deviations or the removal of such products from the Website.

KITE LIFE products are handmade, upcycled, recycled, and sustainable, and small differences with the pictures will always occur. KITE LIFE is not responsible for eventual consequences resulting from these differences. Also coloring may fade over time and scratchers are part of or can appear on the product. The consumer acknowledges that the product is an up-cycle, recycled, natural, sustainable product and may have some visible traces from the materials repurposed. The Consumer understands that, for example, the Kites used, to produce the bags have been used and that this gives the product a story and character. Part of the material used for the kites is upcycled, however the total product (end result) has come new to existence.

INVALID PROVISIONS

In the event that any provision contained in these General Terms and Conditions is invalid: the remaining provisions contained in these Terms and Conditions will nonetheless remain in effect; and the invalid provision will have to be interpreted as, or converted into, a valid provision having the same purport to every extent possible.
