8. RETURNS
In the cases in which the User acquires products on or through the Website of the owner, he/she is entitled to a series of rights, as listed and described below:
Right of Withdrawal
The User, as a consumer and user, makes a purchase on the Website and therefore has the right to cancel the purchase within 14 calendar days without justification.
This withdrawal period shall expire 14 calendar days from the day on which the User or a third party authorized by the User, other than the carrier, acquired the material possession of the goods purchased on the DivingCalendarGuide Website or in case the goods composing his order are delivered separately, 14 calendar days from the day on which the User or a third party authorized by the User, other than the carrier, acquired material possession of the last of those goods making up the same purchase order, or in the case of a contract for services, 14 calendar days from the day of the conclusion of the contract.
To exercise this right of withdrawal, the User must notify DivingCalendarGuide of his decision. You may do so, where appropriate, through the contact spaces provided on the Website.
The User must clearly and unequivocally state that he/she intends to withdraw from the purchase contract. In any case, the User may use the model withdrawal form that DivingCalendarGuide makes available as part of these Conditions, or any other method of contact and wait for the reply to the message received.
In order to comply with the withdrawal period, it is sufficient that the communication unequivocally expressing the decision to withdraw is sent before the expiry of the withdrawal period.
In case of withdrawal, DivingCalendarGuide will reimburse the User all payments received, including shipping costs (with the exception of additional costs chosen by the User for a shipping method other than the least expensive method offered on the Website) without any undue delay and, in any case, no later than 14 calendar days from the date on which DivingCalendarGuide is informed of the decision to withdraw by the User.
DivingCalendarGuide will reimburse the User using the same payment method the User used to make the initial purchase transaction. This refund will not generate any additional cost to the User. However, DivingCalendarGuide may withhold such refund until it has received the products or items of the purchase in perfect condition and with their corresponding packaging, (any returned order that has been unwrapped or unsealed, cannot be returned) or until the User provides proof of the return of the same, depending on which condition is met first.
The User can return or send the products to DivingCalendarGuide at: Barcelona 08005 C/Doctor Trueta, 224 3º.
And it shall do so without any undue delay and in any event not later than 14 calendar days from the date on which DivingCalendarGuide was informed of the withdrawal decision.
The User acknowledges knowing that he/she shall bear the direct cost of return (transport, delivery) of the goods, should any be incurred. In addition, it shall be liable for any diminution in value of the products resulting from handling other than that necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
The User acknowledges that there are exceptions to the right of withdrawal, as stated in Article 103 of Royal Legislative Decree 1/2007 of November 16, 2007, which approves the revised text of the General Law for the Defense of Consumers and Users and other complementary laws. By way of example, and not exhaustively, this would be the case of: personalized products; products that may deteriorate or expire quickly; music or video CDs/DVDs without their packaging, as sealed at the factory.
The same applies to the provision of a service that the User may contract on this Website, as this same Law establishes that the right of withdrawal will not apply to Users when the provision of the service has been fully executed, or when it has begun, with the express consent of the consumer and user and with the recognition on his part that he is aware that, once the contract has been fully executed by DivingCalendarGuide, he will have lost his right of withdrawal.
In any case, no refund will be made if the product has been used, of products that are not in the same condition in which they were delivered or that have suffered any damage after delivery.
Likewise, the products must be returned using or including all their original packaging, instructions and other documents that may accompany them, as well as a copy of the purchase invoice.
Return of defective products or shipping error
These are all those cases in which the User considers that, at the time of delivery, the product does not conform to what was stipulated in the contract or purchase order, and that, therefore, should contact DivingCalendarGuide immediately and let it know the existing non-conformity (defect/error) by the same means or using the contact details provided in the previous section (Right of Withdrawal).
The User will then be informed on how to proceed with the return of the products, and these, once returned, will be examined and the User will be informed, within a reasonable period of time, whether to proceed with the refund or, if applicable, the replacement of the same.
The refund or replacement of the product will be made as soon as possible and, in any case, within 14 days from the date on which we send you an e-mail confirming the refund or replacement of the non-conforming item.
The amount paid for those products that are returned because of a defect, when it actually exists, will be refunded in full, including delivery charges and costs incurred by the User to make the return. The refund will be made by the same means of payment that the User used to pay for the purchase.
Warranties
The User, as a consumer and user, enjoys guarantees on the products that can be purchased through this Web Site, in the terms legally established for each type of product, responding DivingCalendarGuide, therefore, for the lack of conformity of the same that is manifested within three years from the delivery of the product.
In this sense, it is understood that the products are in conformity with the contract provided that: they conform to the description made by DivingCalendarGuide and possess the qualities presented therein; they are suitable for the uses to which products of the same type are ordinarily put; and they present the quality and performance usual for a product of the same type and which are fundamentally to be expected of the same. When this is not the case with respect to the products delivered to the User, the User must proceed as indicated in the section Return of defective products or error in shipment. However, some of the products marketed on the Web Site may present non-homogeneous characteristics as long as these derive from the type of material from which they have been manufactured, and which will therefore form part of the individual appearance of the product, and will not be a defect.
On the other hand, it could be the case that the User acquires on the Website a product of a brand or manufactured by a third party. In this case, and considering that the User is dealing with a defective product, the User also has the possibility of contacting the brand or manufacturer responsible for the product to find out how to exercise its legal warranty rights directly against them during the three years following the delivery of such products. To do so, the User must have retained all information relating to the warranty of the products.
