ACCESS TO FRANKJASON

Frankjason will assign you a password and user account identification that will allow you to access or use certain portions of the Site. Each time you use the password or identification, you will be deemed authorized to access or use the Website, but always in accordance with the GTC. Frankjason has no obligation to verify the authenticity and legality of this authorization each time you access or use the Website. You are responsible for all access or use of the Website, even if a third party logs in with your username and password, and you have not authorized that person to do so, or permitted that person to use the Website. This includes all communications, all transmissions, and all liabilities (including financial) arising from such use.

RETURNS & REFUNDS

CREDIT CARD ABUSE

Frankjason, through our transaction provider PostFinance and PayPal, applies SSL encryption to data, a technology that protects our customers’ transactions. However, Frankjason is not responsible for any damages incurred in the use of the website and any resulting losses (direct or indirect) incurred by a customer whose credit card has been misused or unauthorized.

PROVISION OF PRODUCTS

Subject to these Terms and Conditions, we will provide you with the Products as specified in your Order Confirmation.
If you are custom designing shoes, the images shown are for illustration purposes only. The actual shoes that are custom made for you may in detail differ from the illustration shown. If the shoes are ordered by you as shown, this is considered legally binding and will not be returned or refunded.
When your ordered items are ready to ship, we will send you an email confirming shipment of each item.

DELIVERY OF YOUR PRODUCTS

The customization of your shoes and the delivery to your home, takes on average about 30 working days, counting from the day we have received full payment for the products.
Frankjason will make every effort to deliver your custom shoes or other products ordered through the website to you within the estimated delivery time. The estimated delivery time is given in business days (Monday to Friday) and does not include public holidays.
Frankjason will endeavour to deliver your order to you within the stated delivery time. Estimated delivery times may vary or change due to supply chain incidents beyond our control. If your custom shoes or any other product has not arrived to you within the estimated delivery time, please contact us.
Unless otherwise confirmed by us, we will deliver your custom shoes or other products to the address you provided on the order confirmation. If no one at your address can accept this shipment, our shipping partner will leave a card at the location so that you can pick up the shoes or other products from a third party address.
We will make reasonable efforts to ship your custom shoes or other products to you within the stated delivery time. To the extent legally possible, Frankjason will not be liable for any delays or inability to deliver within our stated time frame.
Risk and title of direct import goods will pass to you from the time that Frankjason’s nominated logistics provider in the country of export of the goods has taken delivery of the goods from us.

GENERAL CONDITIONS

If any provision of these GTC is held by any competent authority to be incorrect, invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, the validity of the other provisions shall not be affected thereby.
Our products come with a warranty that cannot be excluded from consumer law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for any gross damage or defect, or compensation for any other foreseeable and reasonable damage or loss suffered by you. You are also entitled to have the products repaired if they are defective but the damage to the product is still repairable, or to have the products replaced with new ones if the quality is very poor.
No misconduct on your part or ours can invalidate any part of these terms and conditions. Such misconduct will in no way affect the enforceability of these terms and conditions at a later date.
Frankjason reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time.
No employee or agent of Frankjason has the authority to modify these GTC.

In place of the invalid provision, the valid provision shall be agreed which corresponds to the sense and purpose of the invalid provision. In the event of gaps, that provision shall be agreed which corresponds to what would reasonably have been agreed in accordance with the meaning and purpose of this contract had the matter been considered from the outset.
