Likewise, the right of withdrawal may not be exercised for products whose protective elements such as packaging, seals, or wrapping have been opened after delivery where return is unsuitable for health and hygiene reasons.

The Buyer accepts and undertakes that any data entered into the system while registering on the website or during a purchase belongs to the Buyer or that the Buyer has permission to use and share such data; that the Buyer will not enter any data belonging to another person or any data for which the Buyer has no right of use; and that otherwise all responsibility shall belong exclusively to the Buyer.

Once the order is placed, the Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted all terms of this Agreement. The prices listed and announced on the website are sales prices.

Packages believed to have been damaged during shipment must be opened and inspected in the presence of an authorized representative of the delivery company. If any damage to the product is identified, the Buyer must request that a damage report be prepared by the cargo company and must not accept delivery of the product.

ARTICLE 4: GENERAL PROVISIONS
4.1. The BUYER acknowledges that the BUYER has read and obtained information regarding the essential characteristics, sales price, payment method and preliminary delivery information of the products displayed on the WEBSITE and has provided the necessary electronic confirmation for the sale.
4.2. The PRODUCT shall be delivered, together with its invoice, properly packaged and undamaged, to the delivery address specified by the BUYER on the WEBSITE within a maximum period of 30 days.
4.3. If the PRODUCT is to be delivered to a person or organization other than the BUYER, the SELLER shall not be held responsible if such person or organization refuses to accept delivery.
4.4. The BUYER is responsible for inspecting the PRODUCT immediately upon delivery and, if the BUYER identifies any issue caused by transportation, for refusing to accept the PRODUCT and requesting a written damage report from the CARGO company representative. Otherwise, the SELLER shall not accept liability.
4.5. The Agreement approved by the BUYER during a purchase made through the WEBSITE shall in all circumstances be sufficient and valid.
4.6. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the SELLER, the BUYER must fully pay the price of the PRODUCT before taking delivery. If the price of the PRODUCT has not been paid to the SELLER before delivery, the SELLER may unilaterally cancel the Agreement and refrain from delivering the PRODUCT.
4.7. If, for any reason after delivery of the PRODUCT, the bank or financing institution issuing the credit card used for the transaction fails to pay the price of the PRODUCT to the SELLER, the PRODUCT shall be returned by the BUYER to the SELLER within no later than 3 days, with all return expenses borne by the BUYER. All other contractual and statutory rights of the SELLER, including the right to pursue payment of the PRODUCT price, are reserved in all circumstances. For the avoidance of doubt, deferred or installment payment facilities offered by organizations issuing credit cards, installment cards, or similar instruments, including banks and financing institutions, constitute a credit and/or installment payment facility provided directly by such institution. Accordingly, PRODUCT sales for which the SELLER has received the price in full shall not be deemed installment sales between the parties to this Agreement but shall be deemed cash sales. The SELLER’s statutory rights in cases legally considered installment sales, including the right to terminate the Agreement and/or demand payment of the entire remaining debt together with default interest if any installment is not paid, are reserved. In the event of default by the BUYER, monthly default interest at the rate of 5% shall apply.
4.8. If the PRODUCT cannot be delivered within the 30-day period due to extraordinary circumstances outside normal sales conditions, such as adverse weather, earthquake, flood, or fire, and the delay exceeds 10 days, the SELLER shall inform the BUYER regarding the delivery. In such circumstances, the BUYER may cancel the order, order a similar product, or wait until the extraordinary circumstances have ended. If the PRODUCT price has already been collected in the event of order cancellation, it shall be refunded to the BUYER within 10 days following cancellation. For credit card payments, the refund shall be made to the BUYER’s credit card or bank account.
4.9. The BUYER may submit requests and complaints concerning the PRODUCT and the sale to the SELLER through the SELLER’s communication channels specified at the beginning of this Agreement.
4.10. Delivery of the product subject to this Agreement is conditional upon payment of the product price using the payment method selected by the BUYER. If the product price is not paid for any reason or the payment is canceled in bank records, the SELLER shall be deemed released from the obligation to deliver the product.
4.11. The SELLER has the right to contact the BUYER for communication, notification, and other purposes by letter, email, SMS, telephone calls, and other means using the address, email address, fixed and mobile telephone numbers, and other contact information provided by the BUYER in the website registration form or subsequently updated by the BUYER. By accepting this Agreement, the BUYER acknowledges and declares that the SELLER may carry out the communication activities described above. The BUYER’s rights under the Privacy Notice and Privacy Policy available on the Website remain reserved.
4.12. The BUYER accepts and undertakes in advance to comply with applicable laws and regulations when using the SELLER’s website and not to violate such provisions. Otherwise, all civil and criminal liabilities arising therefrom shall be borne entirely and exclusively by the BUYER.

Before accepting delivery of any package that you believe may have been damaged during shipment, please open and inspect the package in the presence of an authorized representative of the cargo company.

ARTICLE 6: PROTECTION OF PERSONAL DATA AND PRIVACY
The information specified by the BUYER in this Agreement and the information provided to the SELLER for payment purposes shall not be shared by the SELLER with any third party other than the cargo company with which the SELLER has an agreement. If the SELLER is required to disclose such information due to administrative or legal obligations, the BUYER may not hold the SELLER liable. The SELLER declares that, for the purposes of entering into and performing this Agreement, it shall duly process the personal data of the BUYER, who is a party to this Agreement, within the scope of its primary and secondary obligations arising under Law No. 6698; shall ensure data security in order to prevent unlawful processing, access, and disclosure of the BUYER’s personal data and to ensure its proper storage; and that sufficient technical and administrative measures have been implemented for this purpose.
