After having selected the product(s), the customer checks the details of his order and the price to be paid and corrects his eventual errors before confirming the order.
The customer enters the information that is necessary for the correct delivery of his order and, then, should read these terms of use as well as TLGOL’s privacy statement carefully before submitting his order to us.

Any change in the order by the customer after any possible change in TLGOL prices will automatically result in the application of the new prices.
TLGOL reserves the right to refuse any order. In such cases, an e-mail will be sent to the customer using the e-mail address communicated by this customer instead of sending an acceptance of the offer.

4.1 Right and time of withdrawal
The customer is entitled by the law to withdraw, without having to give any reasons, within fourteen (14) days from the day the product ordered on the Website has been received by the customer.

4.2 Conditions governing the exercise of the right of withdrawal
To exercise his right to withdraw, the customer must notify his intention to withdraw to TLGOL before the expiry of the applicable withdrawal period. Therefore he may use especially the following methods:
By sending an unambiguous declaration expressing clearly his intention to withdraw, by mail, fax or e-mail to the following address: The Little Green Orca 10/11 Archer Street, London, W1D 7AZ
Or by sending back the withdrawal form to be downloaded by clicking on the following link, duly completed and signed, to the following address: The Little Green Orca Limited 10/11 Archer Street, London, W1D 7AZ.

TLGOL also offers to the customer the possibility to opt for free take-back of the products at an address determined by the customer.

The customer opting for the free take-back of the products at his home undertakes to be available at the dates suggested by the carrier, in order not to unreasonably delay the return of the products to TLGOL. TLGOL reserves the right to refuse such take-back occurring after the expiry of the legal fourteen (14) -day period for revocation provided that the expiration of this period without return has been caused by a reason from the sphere of the customer.

TLGOL reserves the right to reduce its amount if the serial number is lacking due to a reason arising in the sphere of the customer and which is not triggered by a review of the product in the same way as could have be done in a physical store.
If TLGOL cannot legally raise any objections, TLGOL will reimburse the customer the total amount paid for the returned products, including the costs of delivery (on the basis of the standard delivery mode offered by TLGOL) using the same payment method than used by the customer for payment, without unjustified delay and at the latest fourteen (14) days starting from the point in time of receipt of the notification to withdraw by TLGOL.
