General terms and conditions of sale and maintenance

ARTICLE I. VANELO Concept srl (company number 0763.805.120), hereinafter VANELO, whose registered office is located at rue Washington 86, 1050 Brussels, is a company that sells electric bicycles and non-electric bicycles. ARTICLE II. Unless expressly agreed in writing between the parties, the relations between VANELO and its customers are subject to the present general terms and conditions of sale and maintenance, which are deemed to be accepted by the customer, including in the event that they are in contradiction with its own general or particular conditions of purchase. The adhesion of VANELO to the general or particular conditions of the customer will not be able to in no way be deduced from the circumstance that VANELO would have accepted an order or a delivery without protesting against the stipulations which would refer to the general or particular conditions of the customer. The fact for the customer not to have received the present general conditions in his mother tongue does not exempt him from their application. The general conditions and the Internet site of VANELO (www.vanelo.eu), as well as its contents, although they can be consulted worldwide, were written and formatted exclusively for the customers located in Belgium. The other customers located abroad must be conscious of the fact that certain clauses of the general conditions can not be applicable to them, without invalidating the totality of these general conditions. The fact of placing an order on line on the aforementioned Web site constitutes a formal acceptance of the general conditions of sales of VANELO. ARTICLE III. VANELO has several websites (www.vanelo.eu; www.vanelo.be; vanelo.fr; vanelo.es; vanelo.lu) to promote its bikes. VANELO cannot guarantee that each item presented is available at the moment a visitor would have seen it. The prices indicated for each product presented are the prices offered in the VANELO showroom located at Drohme Park, Ch de La Hulpe 53A, 1180 Brussels. These prices can nevertheless be modified at any time without VANELO being obliged to inform its customers. The descriptions (photos and texts) have for only objective to help the Internet users to make their choice among the proposed articles. They will not be able to be opposable if one or more errors would have been made at the time of their redactions. ARTICLE IV. All the products we offer are covered by a guarantee against any manufacturing defect. The duration of this legal guarantee is 2 years. We draw your attention to the fact that this legal guarantee only covers defects in the conformity of the material ordered and not wear and tear, which more particularly concerns certain parts such as tyres or brake pads for example. The warranty does not cover defects inherent to the normal life of the product, such as a discharged battery that can be replaced by the customer(s). Some parts or accessories may be covered by longer warranties if the manufacturers of these products have offered this in their own terms and conditions. The warranty does not cover improper operation or transformation of the product or lack of maintenance (e.g., failure to maintain the brakes). ARTICLE V. In order to allow a serious and regular follow-up of our VANELO by VANRAAM bicycles, VANELO offers the possibility to subscribe to different maintenance contracts (Bronze/Silver/Gold/Platinum and Omnium) carried out at the home of the customers who buy VANELO by VANRAAM bicycles, against payment of monthly premiums. Details of the services covered and the premiums for each contract can be found at www.vanelo.eu / www.vanelo.be. All packages are concluded for a period of one year and are renewed a maximum of 3 times by tacit agreement for consecutive periods of one year. After 4 years, we will terminate the contract. The customers who subscribed to a contract of maintenance can besides cancel these contracts at each annual expiry; for that they must inform VANELO at least 3 months before the expiry date of your contract by registered letter or by email with acknowledgement of delivery or handing-over of letter of cancellation against receipt. The maintenance packs must be paid per month The payments of the premiums are carried out monthly by bank transfer. A reminder will be sent to you by e-mail and text message in case of delay. If the premium payment is still not made within 7 working days of the reminder being sent, this will result in the immediate termination of the maintenance contract. ARTICLE VI. If you believe that an item purchased from us has a manufacturing defect or a lack of conformity with the order, you must first contact us by e-mail or telephone to explain the problem and see if the legal guarantee applies. In any case, the part will be sent by us to the manufacturer or distributor for examination. If the guarantee for this part is applicable due to a manufacturing defect or a lack of conformity with the order, we will pay the cost of returning this part to you, repaired or exchanged. The acceptance or the refusal of a guarantee by VANELO will be the consequence of the decision of the manufacturer or the distributor to make use or not of a guarantee. ARTICLE VII. The customer will benefit from a free telephone support. (0475/79.56.35 - Monday and Tuesday by appointment, Wednesday to Friday from 12:00AM to 07:00PM) VANELO invites its customers to consult first the manuals accompanying the product or to read the information concerning the product on the site of the manufacturer of the product in question.

The lessor, hereinafter referred to as "VC": Vanelo Concept SRL - contact details: Drohme Park - chaussée de la Hulpe 53A, 1180 Brussels - T. +32 475 79 56 35
The renter, hereinafter referred to as "LOC": the person who, based on the details of the rental agreement, rents a bicycle from the lessor.

ARTICLE I.

VC reserves the right to assess the ability and suitability of participants to use a bicycle within the framework of its rental service. LOC declares that he/she is fit to ride a bicycle and has no medical contraindications.

ARTICLE II.

The rented equipment (bicycle and accessories) remains the exclusive property of VC for the duration of the rental period. The RENTER may not lend or sublet the equipment to a third party without the consent of VC.

Article III.

Before concluding the rental contract with the Hirer, VC shall require the Hirer to identify himself/herself by presenting one or more valid identification documents (identity card, driver's license, etc.) and the Hirer's cell phone number; VC shall indicate the relevant information on the rental contract and take a digital photograph of the identification document used by the Hirer.

ARTICLE IV.

The RENTER acknowledges that he/she has taken out personal liability insurance covering his/her liability for the use of the said bicycle regarding both him/herself and third parties.

ARTICLE V.

The RENTER acknowledges that the rented bicycle is in perfect working order and undertakes to use it with care, to provide for its maintenance, to return it at the end of the rental period in the same condition as when it was received, and to return it to the lessor on the dates and at the location specified in the contract. The condition, size and model of the rented bicycles are known by the Rental Firm.

ARTICLE VI.

VC reserves the right to charge the RENTER for any damage to the Bicycle during the rental period by retaining the security deposit and charging for any additional damage, which the RENTER hereby accepts (see Article VI).
