1. Validity of the General Terms and Conditions

  • These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter "GTC") apply to all contracts concluded via the online shop tonar-cosmetics.com between Dr. Tonar Cosmetics GmbH (hereinafter "Dr. Tonar Cosmetics") and customers who are consumers.
  • A consumer is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for a purpose that cannot be attributed to either his or her commercial or independent professional activity.
  • The customer acknowledges and agrees to these terms and conditions as soon as he places an order. The applicability of any general terms and conditions of the customer is excluded.

2. Conclusion of contract

Confirmation of receipt of the order, together with acceptance of the order, is sent by an automated email immediately after it has been sent.
  • The customer of the online shop dr.tonar-cosmetics.com can select the product(s) he/she wants by clicking on the "Add to cart" button.

The selected products are saved in the shopping cart during the customer's visit to the dr.tonar-cosmetics.com website. Here, the customer can then specify the desired quantity. The ordering process continues by clicking on the "Checkout" button. In the next step, the customer can either create their own user account or alternatively continue as a guest or carry out an express checkout via their PayPal account. If the customer orders as a guest, they will be asked to provide their contact details as well as the delivery and billing address. In the next step, the shipping method must be confirmed and in the next step the payment method must be selected. In the next step, the order overview is shown to the customer again for review and verification. If the customer now clicks the "Buy" button, the order is sent to Dr. Tonar Cosmetics. By clicking the “Buy” button, the customer submits a binding offer to purchase the goods he has selected.
  • After receiving the order, Tonar Cosmetics sends a notification email to the email address provided by the customer, confirming receipt of the order and displaying its contents. This concludes the contract (order confirmation). The customer also receives the invoice in a separate email.

3. Right of withdrawal

  • The customer can withdraw from his online contract declaration without giving reasons within 14 days.

Dr. Tonar Cosmetics will only cover the costs of the return if this label is used.
  • The cancellation period shall be fourteen days from the day on which the customer or a third party other than the carrier designated by the customer takes possession of the goods - in the case of multiple goods in a single order or partial deliveries, the last delivered goods. To meet the cancellation period, it is sufficient for the customer to send the notification of the exercise of the right of cancellation before the expiry of the cancellation period.
