We sell fine flavor chocolates. The (total) prices of our products are indicated in our online shop. You can pay through our online payment services. Besides the product price, you bear the delivery costs for orders below €60.
2. Delivery
Coup de chocolat offers free delivery on all orders above €60. For orders up to €60, the shipping cost is €7. We deliver your order to the address you have specified. Once the product has been dispatched, we can no longer change the delivery address. We work with Bpost or DPD as our fulfilment partner for national delivery and DPD, Bpost or UPS for international delivery. They handle the distribution of our products. If we fail to deliver within 30 days after order confirmation, you may (a) request an immediate refund of the purchase price of your order or (b) request a product replacement.
Once your order has been dispatched, we provide you with a track & trace code, which you can use to trace your package. Please note that the postman will try to deliver at your specified address once. If door delivery fails, the postman will bring your package to the nearest parcel shop.

4. Liability
We are not liable for any damages that may result from your use of our product. However, we are liable for damages that result from our willful misconduct or gross negligence. In any case, our liability never exceeds the purchase price of the product that has caused the damage.
We have explicitly excluded the application of Article 6.3 §2 of the (new) Civil Code.
This means that our auxiliary persons in the broadest sense (such as but not limited to employees, directors or any other appointee) can never be held liable for any legal acts or de facto actions performed under these Terms.
This also means that you accept that contractual damage can never be a legal basis for a claim based on extra-contractual liability and that you will always withhold from any such claim to us.
5. Intellectual property
We own the intellectual property rights of our products, texts, photos, videos and other materials, including copyrights, wordmarks and trademarks (or we have the permission of their owners to use them). You shall refrain from committing any acts that may infringe these rights.
