1.4 If the purchaser also refers to his own general terms and conditions, these terms and conditions do not apply, unless Heerlijck Thuis has expressly agreed to this in writing.

2. Offers and conclusion of agreements
2.1 Offers or price quotations should be regarded as an invitation to the potential purchasers to make an offer themselves. Heerlijck Thuis is in no way bound by this, unless this has been clearly stated in writing. Acceptance of the invitation to make an offer by the potential purchaser is considered an offer and will only lead to the conclusion of an agreement if the other provisions of this article are fulfilled.

the potential purchaser has entered the data on the appropriate input screen on the website and the relevant data ('order form') has been sent electronically to Heerlijck Thuis and has been received by Heerlijck Thuis.
2.4 An agreement is concluded when the purchaser has been issued an order confirmation or, if the offer has been made via the website, has been sent by email to the email address provided by the purchaser.
2.5 The purchaser and Heerlijck Thuis expressly agree that by making use of electronic forms of communication, a valid agreement is concluded as soon as the conditions set out in articles 2.3 and 2.4 have been met. In particular, the absence of a proper signature does not affect the binding nature of the offer and its acceptance. Heerlijck Thuis's electronic files shall, insofar as permitted by law, be regarded as a presumption of proof in this respect.
2.6 Information, images, announcements made orally, by telephone or by email and statements etc. regarding all offers and the most important characteristics of the products will be displayed or made as accurately as possible. Heerlijck Thuis is not liable for obvious slips of the tongue or pen.

4.8 In the event of late payment, Heerlijck Thuis is authorised to dissolve the agreement with immediate effect or to suspend (further) delivery until the purchaser has fully met his payment obligations, including payment of any interest and costs owed.
