9. GENERAL PROVISIONS
9.1. The BUYER accepts, declares, and undertakes that the BUYER has read and is informed about the pre-contractual information on the SELLER's website regarding the basic characteristics of the product subject to the Agreement, the sale price and method of payment, and the delivery, and that the BUYER has provided the necessary confirmation electronically. The BUYER accepts, declares, and undertakes that, by confirming the Pre-Contractual Information electronically, before the establishment of the distance sales agreement, the BUYER has also obtained, accurately and completely, the address that must be provided by the SELLER to the BUYER, the basic characteristics of the ordered products, the prices of the products including taxes, and the payment and delivery information.
9.2. Each product subject to the Agreement shall be delivered to the BUYER or to the person and/or organization at the address designated by the BUYER within the period specified in the preliminary information section on the website, depending on the distance of the BUYER’s place of residence, provided that this period does not exceed the statutory period of 30 days. If the product cannot be delivered to the BUYER within this period, the BUYER’s right to terminate the Agreement is reserved.
9.3. The SELLER accepts, declares, and undertakes to deliver the product subject to the Agreement in full, in conformity with the specifications stated in the order, together with any warranty certificates, user manuals, and the information and documents required for the work; to perform its obligations within the principles of accuracy and good faith by providing the product free from any defects, in a sound manner and in compliance with the requirements of applicable legislation and standards; to maintain and improve service quality; to exercise the necessary care and diligence during performance; and to act with prudence and foresight.
9.4. The SELLER may, by informing the BUYER and obtaining the BUYER’s explicit approval before the performance obligation arising from the Agreement expires, supply a different product of equal quality and price.
9.5. If performance of the ordered product or service becomes impossible and the SELLER cannot fulfill its contractual obligations, the SELLER accepts, declares, and undertakes to notify the consumer in writing within 3 days from the date it becomes aware of such situation and to refund the total amount to the BUYER within 14 days.
9.6. The BUYER accepts, declares, and undertakes that the BUYER will confirm this Agreement electronically for delivery of the product subject to the Agreement, and that if, for any reason, the price of the product subject to the Agreement is not paid and/or is canceled in bank records, the SELLER’s obligation to deliver the product subject to the Agreement shall terminate.
9.7. The BUYER accepts, declares, and undertakes that, if after delivery of the product subject to the Agreement to the BUYER or to the person and/or organization at the address designated by the BUYER, the product price subject to the Agreement is not paid to the SELLER by the relevant bank or financial institution due to unfair unauthorized use of the BUYER’s credit card by unauthorized persons, the BUYER will return the product subject to the Agreement to the SELLER within 3 days, with shipping costs borne by the SELLER.
9.8. If the SELLER cannot deliver the product subject to the Agreement within the term due to force majeure events such as circumstances that develop beyond the parties’ will, are unforeseeable, and prevent and/or delay the parties from fulfilling their obligations, the SELLER accepts, declares, and undertakes to notify the BUYER. The BUYER has the right to request from the SELLER cancellation of the order, replacement of the product subject to the Agreement with its equivalent, if any, and/or postponement of the delivery period until the preventing circumstance is eliminated. If the order is canceled by the BUYER, for payments made in cash by the BUYER, the product amount is paid to the BUYER in cash and in one lump sum within 14 days. For payments made by the BUYER via credit card, the product amount is refunded to the relevant bank within 14 days after the order is canceled by the BUYER. The BUYER accepts, declares, and undertakes that the average process for the amount refunded to the credit card by the SELLER to be reflected by the bank in the BUYER’s account may take 2 to 3 weeks, and that since the reflection of this amount in the BUYER’s accounts after it is refunded to the bank is entirely related to the bank’s transaction process, the BUYER cannot hold the SELLER responsible for possible delays.
9.9. The SELLER has the right to contact the BUYER for communication, marketing, notifications, and other purposes via the address, email address, landline and mobile phone lines, and other contact information stated by the BUYER in the site registration form or later updated by the BUYER, through letter, email, SMS, phone call, and other means. By accepting this Agreement, the BUYER accepts and declares that the SELLER may carry out the communication activities stated above toward the BUYER.
9.10. Before receiving delivery of the goods/service subject to the Agreement, the BUYER shall inspect it and shall not accept delivery from the shipping company of damaged or defective goods/service such as dented, broken, torn packaging, etc. The received goods/service shall be deemed undamaged and intact. After delivery, the obligation to protect the goods/service with due care belongs to the BUYER. If the right of withdrawal is to be exercised, the goods/service must not be used. The invoice must be returned.
9.11. If the BUYER and the holder of the credit card used during the order are not the same person, or if a security vulnerability regarding the credit card used in the order is detected before delivery of the product to the BUYER, the SELLER may request that the BUYER provide the credit card holder’s identity and contact information, the credit card statement for the previous month related to the credit card used in the order, or a letter from the card holder’s bank stating that the credit card belongs to the card holder. The order will be frozen during the period until the BUYER provides the requested information/documents, and if said requests are not met within 24 hours, the SELLER has the right to cancel the order.
9.12. The BUYER declares and undertakes that the personal and other information provided while becoming a member of the SELLER’s website is accurate, and that the BUYER will immediately compensate, in cash and in one lump sum, upon the SELLER’s first notice, all damages that the SELLER may incur due to the inaccuracy of such information.
9.13. The BUYER accepts and undertakes in advance to comply with the provisions of applicable legislation (Turkey) and not to violate them while using the SELLER’s website. Otherwise, all legal and criminal liabilities arising therefrom shall be entirely and exclusively binding on the BUYER.
9.14. The BUYER may not use the SELLER’s website in any manner that disrupts public order, is contrary to public morals, disturbs or harasses others, is for an unlawful purpose, or infringes upon the material and moral rights of others.

9.15. The SELLER’s website may provide links to other websites and/or other content that are not under the SELLER’s control and/or are owned and/or operated by other third parties. These links are provided to facilitate navigation for the BUYER and do not endorse any website or the person operating that site, and do not constitute any guarantee regarding the information contained in the linked website.
