Once you have submitted an order using the Site, Columbia Online Shop will send an email to the email address you provided acknowledging receipt of the order and setting out details of the ordered product(s), the Sales Terms and any other applicable conditions. This email constitutes the acceptance of your order and a confirmation that Columbia Online Shop has received it.

You are encouraged to download, save or print a copy of your order confirmation, the email confirming dispatch and the Sale Terms in effect at the time of your order for your records.

Standard shipping is typically via UPS, DHL or DPD and you should allow 1-5 business days for standard delivery within Belgium once an order has been shipped. Columbia Online Shop reserves the right to substitute another carrier of equal or lesser cost to deliver your order. If expedited shipping is required, please select that as your shipping choice. All shipping charges are the responsibility of the customer. Shipping charges will be included on your order confirmation and can be viewed on a summary screen prior to finalizing your order. Shipping charges are based on the delivery location and method you select during the checkout process, and you can view the current shipping fee chart here.

4.1 Columbia's Return Policy
In addition to the statutory right to withdraw from the purchase contract as set out in Clause 4.2 below, you have the voluntary right to return any order and receive a full refund at any time until 30 working days after receipt of you product(s), at Columbia Online Shop's cost. You only need to inform us, for example, by letter, fax, or e-mail of your decision and return products received by post, using the pre-paid return label that we will provide to you, together with the original invoice, its original packaging (with the labels) and any accessories without any signs of use or wear (other than what is required to try on the products). We will cover the return shipping costs. In the event of the return of one or more Product(s), you will be reimbursed for the amount paid for the returned Product(s). Columbia Online Shop reserves the right to (partially) refuse refunds for returns made based on the voluntary right to return in relation to any products that are returned in a used or damaged condition. Please note that we do not accept returns pursuant to this Clause on products that were not purchased from the Website, any bespoke products (i.e., products that we create to your specification, or which are clearly personalised) or any products which are not suitable for return due to health protection or hygiene reasons. For more information on Columbia's Return Policy, call (+)3278480783. This additional voluntary right to return does not restrict your statutory right of withdrawal in any way.

4.2 Statutory Right to Withdraw
As a consumer, you have the statutory right to withdraw from (cancel) the purchase contract. You can exercise the right of withdrawal in the manner indicated in this Clause 4.2 below.

CANCELLATION POLICY
INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHT TO CANCEL
You have the right to cancel this contract within fourteen days without giving any reason. The cancel period is fourteen days from the day on which you or a third party designated by you, who is not the carrier, takes possession of the product, or, in case of delivery of several products, from receipt of the last product.

In order to exercise the cancelling right, you may use the withdrawal function “button” available on our Site. To do so:

1. Add your name and surname;
2. Add the contract identification details (e. g. order number, order date);
3. Add your e-mail address for confirmation of receipt;
4. Click the button labelled "Withdraw from contract";
5. Confirm your withdrawal by clicking "Confirm withdrawal" and
6. You will receive an automatic confirmation of your withdrawal by email.

You may use the enclosed model form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory. To comply with the cancelling period, it is sufficient for you to send the notification before the expiry of the cancelling period.

CONSEQUENCES OF CANCELLING

If you cancel this contract, we must refund all payments we have received from you, including delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs resulting from the fact that you have chosen a type of delivery other than the cheapest standard delivery offered by us), without delay and at the latest within fourteen days of the day on which we received notification of your cancellation of this contract. For this repayment, we will use the same means of payment that you used for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; in no case will you be charged for this repayment.

When exercising the right to cancel, please return received products to us in good, unworn condition, without any signs of use or wear.

We will bear the costs for returning the goods and reimbursement will be processed once we have received the goods back, or once you have provided evidence to us that the goods have sent back, whichever occurs first. Columbia Online Shop reserves the right to reduce the amount refunded for any products that are returned in a used or damaged condition. Please note that we do not accept returns on products that were not purchased from the Website.
