JINIUS AND USERS OR PARTNERS – RESPECTIVE ROLES
1. Via the Platform, we allow certain third parties with which we have contractual arrangements in place (Users or Partners) to offer their Products and services to you. In each such case, this is indicated on the respective Product detail page. While we offer the Platform on which the transactions take place, we are not involved in the actual transaction between you and the User or Partner. At no point in time, do we have possession of any such Products and services.
2. Any contract for the provision of Products or services offered by a User or Partner is directly between you and said User or Partner. We are not a party in that contract, we do not assume any responsibility arising out of or in connection with it (e.g., regarding the delivery of Products and services, refunds, etc.), and, unless explicitly stated otherwise herein, we are not the User’s or Partner’s agent.
3. Unless expressly stated otherwise, the Users or Partners on the Platform are considered to be traders. Title to and risk of loss of the ordered Product shall remain with the User or Partner until the delivery to the Customer has been completed.
4. The User or Partner is at all times responsible for the provision of its Products and services and for dealing with any customer claims or any other issue arising out of or in connection with the contract between the buyer and User or Partner.
5. All queries relating to the ordering of Products must be directed to the User or Partner through the Platform.
RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL
1. If you buy a Product or a service from a professional trader, as defined in the EU Directive 2011/83 on consumer rights, subject to Applicable Laws, you may have the right of withdrawal without any reason within 14 days:
  (a) from the day of the conclusion of the contract in the case of service contracts;
  
  (b) from the day on which you receive the Product; or
  
  (c) in the case of multiple Products ordered by you in one order and delivered separately, from the day on which you receive the Product; or
  
  (d) in the case of delivery of a Product consisting of multiple lots or pieces, from the day on which you receive the last lot or piece of the Product; or
  
  (e) in the case of contracts for regular delivery of goods during defined period of time, from the day on which you receive the first Product.
2. In case of an order of Products, the Product must be returned to the User or Partner whereby the costs of such return shall be borne by the Customer, unless otherwise indicated on the Platform.
3. You must inform the User or Partner of your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the end of the above 14-day period through the Platform. You must send back the Product to the User or Partner or hand it over to a person authorised by the User or Partner to receive the Product, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicated your decision to exercise your withdrawal right.
4. You will be reimbursed by the User or Partner without undue delay and, except as set out in this clause, by no later than 14 days from the day on which the User or Partner received your communication on the cancellation of the order. For such reimbursement, the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction will be used, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise. In any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement. The User or Partner may withhold reimbursement until they have received the Product back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the Product, whichever is the earliest.
5. The Customer shall only be liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling of the goods other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
6. In no event can Jinius be liable for any loss or damages related to the exercise of the right of withdrawal.

All transactions are between you and the User or Partner. You will be informed of which payment cards or alternative payment methods are accepted on the Platform when payment is due.
3. If there is an issue with charging your selected payment method, we may charge any other valid payment method associated with your account. Your payment options may be managed on the Platform.
