Article 3 – Applicability
These General Terms and Conditions apply to any offer from Fitcode International BV and to any distance contract concluded by Fitcode International BV and the Consumer.
Before concluding a distance contract, Fitcode International BV shall make the text of these General Terms and Conditions available free of charge and as soon as possible. If this is reasonably impossible, Fitcode International BV shall indicate in what way the General Terms and conditions can be inspected and that they will be sent free of charge if so requested, before the distant contract is concluded.
3. If the distance contract is concluded electronically, the text of these General Terms and Conditions, in deviation from the previous section and before the distance contract is concluded, may also be supplied to the Consumer electronically in such a way that the Consumer can easily store it on a long-term data carrier. If this is reasonably impossible, it will be specified where the General Terms and Conditions can be viewed electronically and that they will be sent to at the Consumer´s request free of charge, either via electronic means or otherwise, before concluding the distance contract;
4. In the event that specific product or service conditions apply in addition to these General Terms and Conditions, the second and third paragraphs shall apply accordingly, and in the event of contradictory terms and conditions, the Consumer may always appeal to the applicable provision that is most favourable to him/her.
Article 4 – The offer
1. If an offer is of limited duration or if certain conditions apply, it shall be explicitly stated in the offer.
2. The offer contains a full and accurate description of the products, digital content and/or services offered. The description is suitably detailed to enable the Consumer to assess the products, or services and/or digital content adequately. If Fitcode International BV makes use of pictures, they are truthful images of the products and/or services provided. Obvious errors or mistakes in the offer do not bind Fitcode International BV.

If the Consumer can pay electronically, Fitcode International BV shall observe appropriate security measures.
4. Fitcode International BV may, within the limits of the law, gather information about Consumer’s ability to fulfil his payment obligations, and all facts and factors relevant to responsibly concluding the distance contract. If, acting on the results of this investigation, Fitcode International BV has sound reasons for not concluding the contract, she is lawfully entitled to refuse an order or request supported by reasons, or to attach special terms to the implementation.
