8. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

8.1
When purchasing products on the Website, the Customer has a 90-day withdrawal period. This means that the Customer has the right to cancel any purchase by notifying Utterwick Museum accordingly within 90 days from when the Customer or their representative received the product ordered (withdrawal period). Unfortunately, we cannot offer the right of return or exchange on personalised prints that have been personalised and printed to order. All products must be returned in the same condition as they were delivered. If products clearly have been used, we may make a deduction from the reimbursement.

If the Customer wishes to withdraw a purchase, the Customer shall, prior to the expiry of the withdrawal period, send a clear message to Utterwick Museum in the manner set forth here. The Customer shall provide their name, address and other relevant information, e.g. order reference, invoice number and the name of the product in the message.

8.3
If the Customer uses their right of withdrawal, the Customer shall pay for the return shipping costs and is responsible for the condition of the product after the Customer has received the product and during the return shipping. The product shall be returned within 14 days from the date when Utterwick Museum was notified of the withdrawal. The product shall be sent well packaged, in good condition and in its original box and/or packaging.

8.4
When the Customer withdraws their purchase, Utterwick Museum will refund the amount the Customer has paid for the product, including shipping costs. Any additional shipping costs due to the Customer choosing another delivery than the standard delivery offered by Utterwick Museum are exempted from refund. Upon return of part of an order, the shipping costs will not be refunded. Utterwick Museum is entitled to deduct an amount from the amount to be refunded, which corresponds to the depreciation in value of the product compared to the original value of the product, if and to the extent such depreciation in value is due to Customer having handled the product to a greater extent than necessary to determine its function or characteristics.

8.5
Utterwick Museum will pay back the amount without undue delay, however, no later than within 14 days from the date Utterwick Museum received the Customer notification of withdrawal. However, Utterwick Museum may delay repayment until Utterwick Museum has received the product or the Customer has provided proof that the product has been returned, e.g. by means of certificate of delivery. Repayment will be made to the Customer by the payment method chosen by the Customer, unless otherwise agreed or if there is any objection for such a repayment.
