You will then have to choose the delivery options and method of payment for your purchases, according to your preferences. It is by clicking on the button of purchase that you confirm and order.
You will then receive a message confirming your order, showing the important elements of the selected articles. It is this confirmation message that concludes the sales contract between you and KissPlanet. Please check your spam folder and contact us if you did not receive anything after confirming your order.
For environmental reasons and simplicity, KissPlanet does not send a paper invoice and does not place a delivery note in your package. You agree that these documents are made available to you electronically via the site KissPlanet.shop, in My account.

For your safety and to fulfil its legal obligations, KissPlanet reserves the right to request additional information from the customer before confirming an order. KissPlanet also reserves the right to refuse to confirm an order if there is no response deemed appropriate.
In the case where this functionality is made available to the customer, the one-step order makes it possible to place an order directly, by combining all the steps of the purchasing process by referring to the preferences selected by the customer (delivery method, payment method, etc). The information used is that given by the customer and stored in his profile (my account).

- Food products delivered in bulk in KissPlanet's reusable and returnable packaging;

- the giftcards that are used as a purchase voucher, as well as the Avantage and the Privilège cards which award their holder discounts for a specific period;
- the special orders and/or the orders of particularly big amounts that necessitate an unusual purchase of KissPlanet, either because the ordered amounts are exceptional, either because the product doesn’t belong to the standard assortment of KissPlanet;

We ask you to return the product in its original packaging in the best possible condition. In fact, in line with our zero waste philosophy, we will want to put back on sale any compliant product avoiding the waste of packaging. Your cooperation will be appreciated!

7.1. KISSPLANET'S OWN DEPOSIT/REFUND RETURNABLE PACKAGING
KissPlanet remains the owner of the deposits. The use of returnable packaging and the payment of a deposit when ordering does not imply any transfer of ownership. The customer acknowledges that he/she receives a temporary right of use and the obligation to return the deposit as soon as possible. KissPlanet reserves the right to collect the deposits if the customer does not return them within a reasonable period of time and at the latest after the reminder sent by KissPlanet.
If a customer does not return all returnable packaging to KissPlanet, he acknowledges his obligation to reimburse KissPlanet for the total cost of each bulk bag (€5.00 excl. VAT) and each envelope (€5.50 excl. VAT) or each reusable LoopiPak (€45 VAT excl.) and FlexBag (€5 VAT excl.) not returned. The payment will be made to KissPlanet's account with the payment method of the customer's choice. KissPlanet reserves the right to deduct this amount from any subsequent payment made by the customer for another order and to adjust the content of this order accordingly.
For "Flex" packaging, a return label is provided for the Customer inside the packaging. The package must be folded if it is a FlexBox as indicated inside the box. The label is placed behind the transparent window. Finally, the package must be handed over to the carrier corresponding to the given label.
To satisfy all its customers KissPlanet makes every effort to ensure the highest availability of products on sale. KissPlanet undertakes to sell the products on its website within the limits of the stocks available at KissPlanet and its suppliers. The availability of products sold on the site is mentioned on each product sheet, as an indication.
KissPlanet delivers in all countries mentioned on the site. Orders outside the European Union may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are collected when the parcel arrives ot its destination. KissPlanet has no control over these customs clearance fees and import taxes and never pays for them. The customer is considered as an importer, must pay these fees in full and contact the local customs administration to know the procedures and regulations to be respected.
Payment of the full price must be made at the time of your order. At no time, the sums paid can be considered as a deposit or instalments.
11.1. GENERAL COMMENTS
KissPlanet has delivered by the carrier of the choice of the customer the products purchased on the site, to the address entered by the customer as mentioned on the order form. KissPlanet cannot be held responsible for delivery errors and does not cover the additional costs relating thereto in the event of an address error entered by the customer. KissPlanet informs at the time of the order an expected indicative delivery time taking into account the available stocks, the preparation time of the order and the delivery time as provided by the carrier.
The customer must inspect the delivered products upon receipt and in the presence of the carrier, and must immediately notify the carrier of any apparent damage (damaged packaging, partially opened, etc). Any problem related to the delivery must also be communicated to KissPlanet (via the My Account section by selecting the order concerned or to [email protected] ) within 3 days of receiving the product. In order for a complaint to be accepted and processed, it is essential to provide photos of the outer packaging, the shipping label, the inside of the package and finally the damaged product(s).
Products purchased on this site are warranted for two years under European Directive 1999/44 / EC.
To this and beyond the legal guarantees offered by the law, is added a specific manufacturer's warranty for each product. We invite you to consult the specific notices provided for more information.
In case of lack of conformity of the product purchased, you can send an email to [email protected] or to the manufacturer or publisher, in accordance with the warranty clauses specific to the product concerned.
Report any defect as soon as possible, at the latest within 2 months of the discovery of the defect.
In any case, KissPlanet's Customer Service is there to assist you in all stages of the warranty call.
KissPlanet wants to provide clear, complete and accurate information on the products offered for sale on its site to enable its customers to make informed and responsible choices. Despite all its efforts, KissPlanet can not guarantee the absence of errors or omissions. Consequently, the descriptions and photos presented on the site are not contractual and only for information.
On the other hand KissPlanet assumes no responsibility for the accuracy of the information provided by manufacturers and suppliers in their product descriptions.
KissPlanet will in no way be liable for the damage suffered by the customer and resulting from a breach by the latter of its obligations, such as in particular the non-compliance by the customer of the instructions for use and operation of products purchased.
KissPlanet can in no way be held liable for indirect damages suffered by the customer or anyone resulting from the use or resale of products purchased or resulting from the use of the online sales site.
On request, KissPlanet meets all the specific needs of its particular and professional clients (both subject to VAT, and not subject to VAT), including custom orders. This also includes orders of particularly big amounts as well as the personalization of products or packaging. These orders cannot be made via the KissPlanet website, as they need to be explicitly negotiated. They have to be the subject of a special agreement in the form of a bid or a purchase order that has to be signed by both parties, before the closing of the sale. Moreover, this agreement has to take over the details of the order, and it also needs to mention the different personalizing modifications that eventually have to be performed.
Any modifications made by the client to the purchase order or to our proposal, will only be considered as valid in so far as we have accepted and confirmed them in written form. Moreover, every modification of the original order by the client, can cause an adjustment of the delivery period, as well as the payment of supplementary costs.
If the client cancels his order before it has been executed, this cancellation will by operation of law lead to the obligation to pay a standard fee in our favour of an amount equal to 25% of the total price of the order. This standard fee will be employed to cover the administrative and operational costs that are automatically caused by every special order.
If the client cancels his order once we already purchased the basis products this very order required, we reserve us the right, depending on the exact case, to continue the execution of the contract, or to claim a standard fee of an amount equal to 50% of the total amount of the order. This standard fee will be employed to cover, on top of the costs stipulated above, the eventual costs that we owe our suppliers, or the forced acquisition of the basis products that were the subject of the cancelled agreement.
The payment is immediately and integrally payable from the date of the order on. The amounts that have already been collected can in no case be considered as a mere deposit or advance payment.
KissPlanet reserves the right to make changes to its product catalogue, services, procedures, terms and conditions, including these Terms and Conditions at any time. You are subject to the terms and conditions, procedures and Terms and Conditions of Sale in effect at the time you place your order on KissPlanet. If any provision of these Terms and Conditions of Sale is deemed invalid, void, or unenforceable, for whatever reason, that provision shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.
KissPlanet will make every effort to resolve any dispute amicably, in the interest of all parties. Contact us directly at [email protected] to report any problem. In the case, very unlikely, where justice should be seized, these Terms of Use are subject to Belgian law If you are a consumer and your habitual residence is located in a country of the European Union, you also benefit from rights protecting you under the mandatory provisions of the applicable law in you country of residence.
