We are committed to exercising all reasonable precautions, to the extent within our control, to maintain the security of your order details and payment information. However, it is important to note that unless there is a demonstrable case of negligence on our part, we cannot be held responsible for any losses you may incur in the event that an unauthorized third party gains access to any data you furnish while accessing or placing orders through the website.

Contract creation and electronic contracting

The procedural steps required to establish a contract between yourself and us are as follows:

You initiate the order placement for your chosen products through the website by clicking the “Confirm order” button at the conclusion of the checkout process. The website will provide you with straightforward instructions to guide you through this order placement procedure.

Subsequently, you will receive an order acknowledgement email from us, which will comprehensively detail the products you have selected.

Upon the shipment of your product, we will send you a dispatch confirmation email. It is important to note that the acceptance of your order and the formalization of the contract between you and us will be deemed to occur at the moment of dispatch of the ordered Products, unless we have explicitly communicated to you that we are unable to accept your order or if you have chosen to cancel it.

Non-acceptance of an order may stem from any of the following reasons:

Unavailability of the product you requested from our stock.

Our inability to secure authorization for your payment.

The identification of an error in pricing or product description.

Failure to meet the eligibility criteria for placing an order, as delineated in these Terms.

Furthermore, it should be noted that the contract will be executed in the English language, and all prices indicated will encompass VAT charges.

Payments

Prices listed on our website (https://chef-essentials.net) are denominated in euros and include Value Added Tax (VAT).

For online payments, we exclusively accept cards that are authorized for internet use. All transactions are encrypted to ensure security.

Our website solely processes orders from web browsers equipped with Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology, ensuring that orders cannot inadvertently be placed through an insecure connection.

International customers will be billed by their credit card company according to the prevailing exchange rate on the day the order is made. On occasion, credit card companies may levy a small international transaction fee, which is beyond our control.

Upon placing an order, you will receive a unique order number. If any issues arise during payment processing for all or part of your order, we will make an effort to contact you via email before cancelling the order. While we endeavour to accommodate changes to orders once they have been placed, it is ultimately the responsibility of the customer to provide accurate order details at the time of placement.

We retain the prerogative to modify prices of available goods and shipping costs. Such changes do not affect the rights of individuals who placed orders prior to the implementation of these alterations.

Returns & Refunds

We anticipate your complete satisfaction with any product acquired from us. However, should you desire to return an item, we strive to make the process as prompt and convenient as possible. In accordance with distance selling regulations, you have the right to cancel your order by returning any item within a period of 14 days from the day following the date of delivery. Please note that this right does not apply to certain product types due to health and hygiene considerations, which we are unable to accept for returns.

All merchandise must be returned in the same pristine condition in which they were originally supplied, including all attached tags. Upon receipt and examination of your return, we will send you an email acknowledging its arrival. Subsequently, you will be informed whether your refund request has been approved or declined. If your return is approved, the refund will be processed, and the credit will be automatically applied to your credit card or the initial method of payment within a specific timeframe.

It is important to bear in mind that you are responsible for covering the shipping costs associated with the return of the item. Please note that shipping costs are non-refundable. In the event of a refund, the cost of return shipping will be deducted from the total refund amount.

All items to be returned must be authorized by Us before return. Some items are subject to a 20% to 50% restocking charge and return freight charges.

Exchanges

If you wish to exchange any items, such as changing the size, colour, or product, within 14 days of receiving your order, kindly contact us via email at info@chef-essentials.net. Subsequently, please proceed to return the products to us for a full refund. To ensure prompt receipt of your desired items, we recommend placing a new order for them.

Please be aware that we can only accept items for exchange when they are returned in their original condition, including the original packaging. It’s important to keep in mind that the product remains your responsibility until it has been successfully received by us.

Warranty period

Consumers are entitled to a 2-year guarantee, free of charge, in the event that a product is found to be faulty or not as advertised. This 2-year guarantee period commences upon your receipt of the goods.

Should you wish to initiate a return, request a refund, or seek an exchange, please contact us via email at info@chef-essentials.net. We are here to assist you with any inquiries or concerns you may have regarding your purchase.

Description of Products

Each product you purchase is subject to its respective Product Description, which outlines additional conditions pertaining to that specific product. These conditions may encompass aspects such as estimated delivery schedules, warranties, post-sales services, and guarantees, among others.

We are committed to taking all reasonable precautions to ensure that the details, descriptions, and prices of the Products featured on the website are accurate at the time they are entered into our system. While we strive to maintain the website’s accuracy, it’s important to note that the information provided, including Product Descriptions, may not always precisely reflect the current situation at the moment you place an order.

In the event of our non-compliance with these terms, we accept liability for any loss or damage you incur as a foreseeable result of our breach of contract or our failure to exercise reasonable care and skill. However, we are not accountable for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is deemed foreseeable if it is either self-evident that it will occur or if, at the time the contract was formed, both parties were aware it might occur. This awareness may have arisen, for instance, if you discussed such potential outcomes with us during the sales process.

It’s important to emphasize that we do not exclude or limit our liability to you in any way where such exclusion or limitation would be unlawful

Waiver

Any waiver by us shall not be interpreted as a waiver of any subsequent or ongoing breach of any provision.
