Article 6 – Right of withdrawal
In the case of products:
1. The consumer can rescind an agreement with regard to the purchase of a product during a reflection period of 14 days without stating reasons. Uiara Clothing can ask the consumer for the reason for the withdrawal but cannot render the specification of his reason(s) mandatory.
2. The reflection period as intended in paragraph 1 takes effect on the day after the consumer, or a third party previously designated by the consumer, not being the carrier, has taken receipt of the product or:
a. if the consumer ordered multiple products in one and the same order: the day when the consumer, or a third party designated by him, has received the last product. Uiara Clothing can, provided that the consumer was informed about this in a clear manner prior to the ordering process, reject an order of multiple products with different delivery times;
b. if the delivery of a product consists of several shipments or parts: the day when the consumer, or a third party designated by him, has received the last shipment or the last part;
c. in case of agreements for a regular delivery of products during a certain period: the day when the consumer, or a third party designated by him, has received the first product.

3. The consumer can rescind an agreement for the provision of services and an agreement for the delivery of digital content that is not delivered on a tangible carrier during a period of 14 days without stating reasons. Uiara Clothing can ask the consumer for the reason for the withdrawal but cannot render the specification of his reason(s) mandatory.
4. The reflection period as intended in paragraph 3 takes effect on the day that follows the conclusion of the agreement.
Extended reflection period for products, services and digital content not delivered on a tangible carrier if not informed of the right of withdrawal:

6. If Uiara Clothing makes the information as intended in the previous paragraph available to the consumer within twelve months after the start date of the original reflection period then the reflection period expires 30 days after the day when the consumer has received the said information.
Article 7 – Obligations of the consumer during the reflection period
1. During the reflection period, the consumer shall handle the product and the packaging diligently. He shall only unpack or use the product to the extent that this is required to determine the nature, characteristics and operation of the product. The guiding principle in this respect is that the consumer can only use and inspect the product as he would be allowed to do in a shop. We, therefore, recommend being careful with make-up when fitting.
2. The consumer shall only be liable for a decrease in value of the product that is the result of a manner of handling the product that goes beyond what is permitted pursuant to paragraph 1.
3. The consumer shall not be liable for a decrease in value of the product if Uiara Clothing did not provide him with any and all statutorily mandatory information about the right of withdrawal prior or upon the conclusion of the agreement.

2. The consumer returns the product to Uiara Clothing as soon as possible, however within 14 days from the day following the notification as intended in paragraph 1. The consumer did, in any case, observe the reflection period if he returns the product before the reflection period has expired.
3. The consumer returns the product with any and all delivered accessories, where reasonably possible in the original state and packaging, and in conformity with reasonable and clear instructions given by Uiara Clothing.
4. The risk and the evidentiary burden in terms of exercising the right of withdrawal in a correct and timely fashion are borne by the consumer.
5. The consumer bears the direct costs of the return of the product. If Uiara Clothing did not indicate that the consumer must bear the said costs or if Uiara Clothing indicates that it shall bear the costs then the consumer does not need to bear the costs for the return.
6. If the consumer withdraws after first expressly having requested that the performance of the products that were not prepared for sale yet in a limited volume or certain quantity starts during the reflection period then the consumer shall be liable to pay Uiara Clothing an amount in proportion to the part of the obligation that was complied with by Uiara Clothing at the time of the withdrawal, compared to complete compliance with the obligation.
7. The consumer does not bear any costs for the performance of products that were not prepared for sale yet in a limited volume or quantity if:
a. Uiara Clothing did not provide the consumer with the statutorily mandatory information about the right of withdrawal, the reimbursement of costs in case of withdrawal or the withdrawal return form; or
b. the consumer did not expressly request for the start of the performance of the products during the reflection period.
8. The consumer does not bear any costs for the complete or partial delivery of digital content not delivered on a tangible carrier if:
a. prior to the delivery he did not expressly agree with the start of the implementation of the agreement before the end of the reflection period;
b. he did not acknowledge forfeiting his right of withdrawal when giving his consent; or
c. Uiara Clothing failed to confirm this declaration of the consumer.
9. If the consumer relies on his right of withdrawal then any and all additional agreements are rescinded by operation of law.

Uiara Clothing forthwith, however within 30 days following the day that the consumer notified Uiara Clothing of the withdrawal, repays any and all payments of the consumer, including potential delivery costs charged by Uiara Clothing for the returned product. Unless Uiara Clothing offers to pick up the product, Uiara Clothing can wait with the repayment until the product was received or until the consumer demonstrates that the product was returned, depending on what occurs first.
3. For the repayment, Uiara Clothing uses the same payment method used by the consumer, unless the consumer agrees with a different method. The repayment is without charges for the consumer.
4. If the consumer opted for a more expensive delivery method than the cheapest standard delivery method then Uiara Clothing does not need to repay the additional costs for the more expensive method.
Article 10 – Exclusion of the right of withdrawal
Uiara Clothing can exclude the following products and/or services from the right of withdrawal, however only if Uiara Clothing clearly indicated this in the offer, at least in a timely fashion prior to the conclusion of the agreement:
