Terms of delivery of memberships and articles

These terms of delivery apply to all memberships and orders with koffietcacao, both by consumers and businesses. In case of contradiction between these terms and conditions and any general terms and conditions of the client, the latter shall prevail.

1. Definitions


In these terms of delivery, the following definitions shall apply:

  • koffietcacao: the company located at Willaertlaan 8, 6952EN Dieren, Netherlands.
  • Customer: any natural or legal person who takes out a membership or orders an item from koffietcacao. Customer must be at least 18 years of age when taking out a membership or placing an order.
  • Membership: an agreement on a monthly or annual basis that entitles you to access koffietcacao digital content, offers or other services.


2. Applicability


These terms of delivery apply to all offers, agreements and deliveries of koffietcacao through www.koffieTcacao.nl. Deviations are valid only if agreed in writing.

3. Establishment of membership or order


A membership is established once a customer completes the ordering process via the website and payment is received. After completion, the customer receives an e-mail confirmation and a summary of the agreement.

By taking out a membership, the customer explicitly consents to direct access to digital content and acknowledges that the legal right of withdrawal may be waived (see Article 9).


4. Duration, renewal and termination of memberships.

4.1 Monthly membership (BASIC)

The BASIC membership has a term of one month and upon expiration is automatically renewed for a new one-month period each time.

BASIC membership can be cancelled at any time. Termination takes effect at the end of the current monthly period. There is no minimum term.

4.2 Annual membership

An annual membership has an initial term of twelve months. The first year is a fixed term.

At the end of the first year, membership is automatically renewed. Depending on the chosen payment method, this is done either annually or monthly.

After the first year, membership may be cancelled at any time. The cancellation will take effect at the end of the current subscription period, being the current year for annual payment or the current month for monthly payment.

There is no refund for subscription periods that have already expired. There is no right to a refund for cancellation within the first year.

4.3 KTC Box membership (monthly payment)

The KTC Box membership is offered with monthly payment and has a term of one year. During this year, the member receives four KTC Boxes, one per quarter. The first year is considered a fixed term.

At the end of the first year, membership continues automatically with monthly payment.

Cancellation is possible at any time after the first year. Termination always takes effect at the end of the current box period. A box period corresponds to a quarter. The member will always still receive the box belonging to the box period in which the termination is made.

After the end of the current box period, membership ends automatically and no further payments are made.

Upon termination, there is no right to a refund of amounts already paid for expired box periods.

4.4 Termination and notice procedure

Termination can be done in the following ways:

Through the customer account at www.koffieTcacao.nl.

By e-mail at [email protected].

In writing, addressed to koffietcacao, Willaertlaan 8, 6952 EN Dieren.

For automatic renewals, the cancellation option through the customer account may be temporarily unavailable within thirty days prior to the next renewal date. In that case, the member may submit the cancellation by email. The cancellation will then be processed with the same effective date as if it had been made through the customer account.

After cancellation, the membership remains active until the end of the current subscription period. After that, membership ends automatically and no further payments are made.
