However, in relation to legal entities, certain specific conditions for the exercise of right of withdrawal apply under this clause. When referring to “you” below, this also includes legal entities.
7.2 Right of withdrawal means that you as a Customer have the right to withdraw your purchase by notifying this within 14 days from the day you or a person specified by you have received the ordered product (the withdrawal period).
7.3 If you decide to withdraw your purchase and you want full reimbursement of the product you may not handle the product more than what is necessary to establish its nature, characteristics and function.

7.4 The right of withdrawal does not apply to the following types of products:
(a) a product whose price depends on fluctuations in the market outside OIE’s control, which may occur during the withdrawal period;

Reimbursement will be made to you by the same payment method chosen by you unless otherwise agreed or there is any hindrance to such reimbursement. OiE will not reimburse the Customer the full costs for the shipping fees if the Customer has expressly chosen a certain type of delivery (for instance express delivery), although OiE offered a common and generally acceptable type of delivery which would have incurred lower shipping fees. In such case OiE will reimburse the Customer for the amount corresponding to the common and generally acceptable type of delivery. Shipping fees are not reimbursed for partial returns. - Option to return and right to exchange
