Order, confirming receipt of order and checking and confirming orders
When the supplier receives the buyer’s order, he immediately confirms the receipt of order. However, this does not confirm that the ordered goods are in stock or that the products have been dispatched; this is merely a notice to the buyer that his order was delivered and that the verification procedure on the availability of the ordered goods has been set in motion.

After it has been determined that the goods are deliverable the supplier e-mails the buyer an order confirmation with delivery date and implementation. The purchase contract between the supplier and buyer is entered the moment the supplier sends out the buyer’s order confirmation.

Price
All prices on our web site are in euros and are VAT included, unless stated otherwise. The reduced price represents the deducted regular price at which the presented product is put on sale for a limited or unlimited time.

All prices stated in our online shop are the prices of products and do not include delivery costs. These prices apply only for products purchased online and are valid for the period when the order was placed, but have no predetermined validity. The prices are valid only if covered with one of the stated forms of payment. The pictures on our web site are only for illustrative purposes and do not necessarily reflect the actual state of offer.

Due to the nature of online business the offers stated in our online shop may vary. In spite of our constant effort to provide current and accurate data, the prices or data stated online can sometimes be incorrect. If the price or delivery status changes during the processing of orders, the buyer will have the right to cancel his/her order or receive another offer from the supplier, which is acceptable for both parties.

Consumer protection

Payment method, delivery and costs of delivery
The goods purchased over the Hočevar d.o.o. online shop can be paid on delivery.

All purchased products will be delivered to the buyer’s address stated in the sent order by our delivery contractor, i.e. the Post of Slovenia (form here on referred to as: «deliverer»).

The deliverer will serve the goods directly to the buyer, which resides at the delivery address. The purchase price with shipping charges shall be paid to the deliverer. If during time of delivery there is no one present at the stated address the deliverer will leave a note in the mail compartment stating where (at which post office) and within how many days the addressee can claim his/her delivery. If the addressee does not claim the ordered goods within the period stated on the deliverer’s note the package will be returned to its sender.

The delivery costs for a single order add up to 3.50 EUR. If, however, the order exceeds 50.00 EUR the delivery costs (packaging, transportation, shipping costs) will be covered by the supplier.

Important
The Post of Slovenia is charging the service RANSOM ON DELIVERY extra. This service costs 1.05 EUR if the value of the package is less than 98.00 euros or 1.07 % of package value if the package is worth between 98.00 and 501.00 euros or 5.36 euros for packages that exceed the value of 501.00 euros.

The delivery period is usually 2 – 3 working days. If the ordered goods are not in stock, the supplier will inform the buyer on the actual delivery date.

If the supplier dispatches the ordered products in due time, he cannot be taken responsible for any delays that may occur on the part of the deliverer.

Delivery of goods
If the goods are delivered by the Post of Slovenia, the addressee is entitled to accept the goods from the mailman at the given delivery address, as stated in the terms and conitions of the Post of Slovenia.

The buyer or the addressee shall check the amount and quality of the delivered goods on delivery.

The buyer undertakes that in case of any delays in delivery or a different mode of delivery, he will not claim any reimbursement of the costs incurred, such as shipment and delivery costs in form of claims for damages, civil actions or similar. He will, however, obtain all other minimal rights in compliance with Articles 23 and 24 of the Consumer Protection Act. All products that are in stock will be delivered to the buyer within 2-3 working days after the receipt of order. The ordered goods will not be dispatched on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.

The cancellation must be done in a written form and sent to the supplier’s e-mail address: info@flexovitalis.com The written note must include only the buyer’s statement, that he/she wants to withdraw from the contract; there is no need to state the reason for the withdrawal. The written notice must be sent within the stated time period so it would be considered handed in in due time. This period starts one day after the goods were delivered to the buyer. The only costs of withdrawal for the consumer will in this case be the returning costs of the received goods, which will be calculated according to the delivery service’s price list (The Post of Slovenia; the price depends on whether the goods are returned in form a shipment, package or cargo). The goods shall be returned to the seller within 30 days from the day the buyer sent his/her notice of withdrawal to the following address: Hočevar d.o.o., Savinškova ulica 2, 8000 Novo mesto.

If the consumer already started using the product or if single components of the product have been opened, a withdrawal from the contract is no longer possible.
The product manufacturer foresees also the original packaging (in compliance with Article 36 of the Consumer Protection Act). Since the packaging is an integral part of the sold product it must be returned with the product in the exact same state as it was found at the time of delivery (this means unharmed and in the same quantity).
The refund will be made as soon as the withdrawal procedure is concluded, but no later than 30 days from receipt of the notice of withdrawal. In order to assure certainty, accuracy, timely refund and tracking of payments, the amount can only be refunded in form of a bank transaction to the buyer’s account. Refunds in cash are not possible.
