If part of the order is not immediately available because our reliable suppliers have not delivered the products to us on time through no fault of our own despite the placement of an identical order, we will supply the remaining goods at a subsequent date without charging for shipping costs again, provided this is reasonable to you.

10. Transportation damages

If goods are delivered with obvious damages, please point out these defects immediately to the delivery agent, and contact us without delay. Failure to make a complaint or to contact us does not have any effect on your statutory rights or their enforcement, or on the warranty rights in particular. However, it will help us assert our own claims against the carrier and/or transport insurance.

 

11. Warranty and guarantees

We are obliged to sell goods which are in accordance with the contract. Statutory warranty rights of the country in which you have your habitual abode shall apply.

You are obliged to check the delivered products as soon as feasible in the usual course of business and to communicate identified defects immediately to our customer service department at namaste(at)jadeyoga.ch. If you fail to do so, the products are deemed approved. Approval is, in any case, deemed to have been given unless you submit a notice of defects to customer service within 8 days after delivery via-email.

Defects which were not detected during a proper inspection in accordance with the above paragraph must be notified to our customer service immediately upon their discovery by sending an email to namaste(at)jadeyoga.ch, otherwise the ordered products shall also be deemed approved in respect of their defects.

A photograph of the defective product together with the order number and a detailed description of the defect should be sent to namaste(at)jadeyoga.ch. YO|YOGA will check the documents and then let you know how to proceed. The defective product must be returned only after this confirmation from YO|YOGA. We shall assume the transport costs incurred for any return.

We provide warranty by eliminating the defects. This is done at our discretion through supplementary performance, that is, elimination of the defect (rectification) or delivery of non-defective goods (replacement). Products returned by customers will once again become our property.

If supplementary performance fails, you are entitled to rescind the contract. This does not apply in the case of minor defects. A right to a price reduction is excluded. This exclusion of liability also applies to all claims competing with the warranty rights, be it those arising from contract (Article 97 et seqq. OR), offence (Article 41 et seqq. OR), avoidance of contract for mistake (Article 23 et seqq. OR.) etc.

We do not provide guarantees in the legal sense. As a matter of course, manufacturer warranties are hereby unaffected. We assume no liability for descriptions by third parties, in particular those provided by other customers in customer reviews published in the online shop or on our social media presences.

 

12. Liability

We shall always assume unlimited liability for claims due to damage that was caused by us, our legal representatives or agents

  • in case of injury to life, limb or health
  • in case of wilful or grossly negligent breach of contract
  • in case of warranty assurances, where agreed
  • to the extent the scope of application of the Product Liability Act applies.

Apart from these cases, our civil liability is limited to the direct damage foreseeable upon conclusion of the contract.

In derogation of this, all liability is waived except for the aforementioned mandatory liability cases (injury to life, limb or health, etc.).

The liability of auxiliary persons is waived in full.

 

13. Assignment

We reserve the right to assign or pledge our due purchase price claims vis-à-vis you accrued in connection with deliveries of goods including any due instalments, default interest and dunning fees to third parties.

 

14. Severability clause

Should one or more provisions of these GTC be or become invalid, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions.

 

15. Applicable Law and Dispute Resolution

Swiss law shall apply exclusively. Mandatorily applicable legal provisions or mandatory provisions which exclude a choice of law shall remain reserved. The application of the conflict of laws rules and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is excluded.
