    To place an order on the Website, you must be:
    • at least 18 years old; and
    • a consumer - not a reseller
    B. HOW TO ORDER
    You need an e-mail address to place an order, and you may need to set your browser to accept both (functional) cookies and pop-ups in order to be able to use all the functionalities of the Website, which includes adding items to your shopping cart, customizing items with prescription lenses (if applicable) and submitting your order.
    Placing an order on the Website is easy.
    • Find the products you want (and customize with prescription lenses, if applicable).

    When you submit an order we will send you an email acknowledging receipt of your order. This does not mean that we have accepted your order. Our acceptance of the order takes place as follows:
    • For non-prescription products: when we send the products to you. We will send you an email confirming that the products have been sent (“Order Confirmation”). At the time the products leave our warehouse, a contract, containing these general conditions, comes into existence (the “Contract”) and is binding on you and us (unless you cancel under Section V or VII below); and
    • For prescription products: when we send you an email confirming that we accept your order. At this point, a binding Contract comes into existence, and you will not be able to cancel it. You are responsible for ensuring that the prescription you enter when you place an order is correct.
    We recommend that you print or download a copy of these general conditions and the Order Confirmation for future reference.
    If we are unable to supply you with a product, we will inform you of this in writing and will not process the order.
    C. OUR RIGHT TO REJECT YOUR ORDER OR CANCEL A CONTRACT
    Fulfillment of all orders on the Website is subject to availability. We explicitly reserve the right not to accept your order for any reason, including for example:

    • your order is flagged up by our security systems as an unusual order or an order susceptible to fraud;
    • you are under 18;
    • you are a reseller;
    • there was a clear error in the price displayed on the Website; and/or
    • in the event of a clear misspelling or other errors or mistakes in the Website information.
    If we do not accept your order, we will inform you of this by email.
    We also reserve the right to cancel a Contract by email to you in the following situations, without being liable for any damage or costs other than repayment of any amount received from you in relation to the Contract we have cancelled:

    When you send us your order, we may run some checks on it before we accept it. These checks may include verifying your address, creditworthiness, and checking for fraud. As to the latter: we run partly automated checks on all purchases to filter out unusual or suspect transactions, or transactions which can be identified as susceptible to fraud. Suspected fraud on the Website will be investigated and if necessary prosecuted.
    III. PRICE/PAYMENT
    A. PAYMENT METHODS
    You can find the available payment methods in the Help Section of the Website. We do not accept any method of payment other than those listed in the help section. Please do not try to pay by any other way than specified there. If you do, we will not be liable for loss of the payment or any other loss that may result from this action.
    B. PAYMENT PROCESSING
    If you pay by credit/debit card, we will deduct the amount due from your account as soon as your order leaves our warehouse.
    Payments can only be processed if the billing information can be verified.
    We retain title in any product(s) until we have received full payment for such product(s). At that point, you own such product.
    C. PRICES AND CURRENCY
    The product prices displayed on the Website are inclusive of Value-Added Tax (VAT). Shipping rates are applied per order. The exact shipping rates depend on the country where your order is being delivered to. For details on shipping rates per country see the Help Section of the Website.
    Prices are quoted in Euro. Please note that changing the country of delivery may have an influence on price due to a change in currency or to country specific pricing.
    For sales to Switzerland and Norway, the product prices displayed on the Website are exclusive of Value-Added Tax (VAT) and Import Duty, which may be charged by the courier on delivery. Shipping rates are applied per order. The exact shipping rates depend on the country where your order is being delivered to.

    Prices are quoted in CHF (Swiss Francs) or NOK (Norwegian Krone). Please note that changing the country of delivery may have an influence on price due to a change in currency or to country specific pricing.

This price will be recorded in the Order Confirmation, which we recommend you print or download for future reference. If paying by credit card, the total amount for your entire order will be reflected on your statement in your local currency.
    If your local currency is different from the currency in which the prices are quoted, your bank will apply the exchange rate applicable per the date of purchase. Your bank may apply a different exchange rate, which is beyond our control. For the avoidance of doubt, you will be responsible for any such exchange rate fees and/or related bank fees.

    E. PRICE CHANGES
    The prices of the products will be as displayed on the Website. Prices may change from time to time, but changes will not affect any order which we have confirmed in an Order Confirmation.

    V. RETURNS & CANCELLATIONS
    A. CANCELLING ORDER BEFORE DELIVERY
    You may cancel any order (excluding prescription orders) free of charge and without giving us any reason, provided it has not yet been shipped. We begin processing orders placed at our online store almost immediately. If you wish to cancel your order, please email us at help@dragonalliance.info quoting your order reference number.
    B. RETURNING ORDERS AFTER DELIVERY – DEFECTIVES
    You are entitled to return products delivered to you in the event that they are defective or otherwise not in conformity with your order when you received them. You can do so within thirty (30) days after you notice the defect. This does not affect your legal rights. In the event your claim is justified, the purchase price and the shipping costs will be refunded. For practical information on how to return, see the Help Section of the Website.
    C. EXERCISING YOUR RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL (NO DEFECT)
    If for any reason other than defects you are not happy with the products you ordered, you may return the products delivered to you within fourteen (14) calendar days after the product is delivered, without giving us any reason, as long as the products are complete, boxed as new and not marked or damaged in any way. In the case of split deliveries, the fourteen (14) day period is calculated from the date of delivery of the last product to be delivered.
    We will accept the return of a prescription glasses order within such fourteen (14) day period, although we are only able to refund the cost of the frame and are not able to refund the cost of the prescription lenses (unless defective). To be eligible for a full refund, the frame must be returned within such fourteen (14) day period, boxed as new and not marked or damaged in any way.
    If you return incomplete, un-boxed, used and/ or damaged products, we may reduce the refund to reflect the amount by which the value of the products is reduced, up to the total price (except where the product was damaged when delivered).
    For information on refunds, see below. For practical information on how to return, see the Help Section of the Website. You may wish to use the cancellation form to notify us that you wish to return a product, but it is not obligatory. You may also notify us by phone or email of your desire to return a product. If you inform us that you wish to return a product within the fourteen (14) day period described above, we shall reimburse to you all payments received (excluding delivery costs) no later than fourteen (14) days from the date on which we receive your returned product.
    D. PRODUCT EXCHANGE
    Product exchanges are currently not possible, but you do have the option of returning your product(s) and re-ordering. For information on refunds, see below. In order to get another product colour or size, you will have to place a new order on the Website.
    E. REFUND INFORMATION
    Refunds will be made by the same method as the original method of payment.
    In the event you return goods for reasons other than defectiveness or non-conformity with your order, you will need to pay for the return shipment.
    For practical information on how to return, see the Help Section of the Website. Please read the help section information and follow the directions carefully in order to prevent unnecessary delay.
