The process of using our webshop
1. Registration
You can place an order and purchase products in our webshop with or without registration.
If you order and purchase products with registration, upon registration you declare that you are older than 18 years, are aware of and accept this TOS and other policies and regulations published on our website, and you give your consent to manage and process your personal data as described in our Privacy Policy. If you order and purchase products without registration, you may complete the procedure only if you declare that you are aware of and accept this TOS, and you give your consent to manage and process your personal data as described in our Privacy Policy. Upon registration Borneo sends an automatic email to you confirming your registration.
You shall provide information about yourself that is true, accurate, current and complete in all respects, in the course of registration and purchase. Should any of your registration information change, please notify us immediately by changing your details under your profile information. In case of invalid or non-existent data the contract with Borneo shall be null and void. Borneo excludes its liability in case you purchase goods and/or use our services with another person’s data. We are not liable for damages occurred due to the fact that you forgot your password or such password became available to a third person out of the scope of the responsibility of Borneo. We shall not be liable for late delivery if it was caused by incorrect and incomplete data provided by you. Please protect your password and user’s name while we are not liable for damages occurred due to the fact that your password and/or user’s name could have been available to third parties outside the scope of Borneo’s responsibility. To ensure that the shopping procedure is simple and secure, we use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology.
2. Placing an order
After registration you can enter our webshop and begin shopping. You can choose the products to be purchased, the size and the quantity and put the products into your cart. Borneo provides the name and description of the products along with a photo in the webshop. A slight difference can exist between the photo and the product itself. We are not liable for the differences between the photo of our product on our webshop and the real appearance of the product.
You can check the content of your cart by clicking on the “Cart” icon. It is possible to delete the product by clicking on the “Remove X” icon or correct the quantity of the product in your cart, by clicking onto the white button under the “Qty” sign. At the end of the modification you should click on the “Update cart” icon. Items in your cart are not reserved and may be purchased by other customers.
You may purchase one or multiple items in the same order and purchase procedure.
In a case when you have a discount code, you can enter that code into the “Discount” field and click on the “Apply” button. Then the purchase price will be reduced. By clicking on the “Check out” button, you can start the payment procedure. First you should give your shipping address, such as first and last name, company name (if any), shipping address and telephone number. The next step is to select the shipping method. In the webshop the shipping fee will be calculated automatically on the basis of the shipping address. You can give your billing address, which can differ from the shipping address.
You can choose between two payment methods. Pay with your credit card using stripe.com to complete your order or use your PayPal account. All transactions are secure and encrypted. Credit card information is never stored.
By clicking on “Place an order” button you can pay the purchase price of the product according to the chosen payment method. When placing your order the purchase price, the shipping fee and all other applicable fees (if any) will be indicated that you have to pay to receive the products. After placing an order, Borneo sends you an order confirmation email without delay, but not later than within twenty four (24) hours from the time of the order. Usually this message is shown in the webshop window after the payment method was successfully completed, with the wording “Your order is confirmed”. A confirmation email shall be also sent to your email address. Such email contents your order’s summary.
In the unlikely event that the above confirmation email or message is not received by you, you are released from the obligation of purchase. We are not liable for late confirmation, if the confirmation delays due to a false or incorrect email address provided by you during the registration process, or your email account is not able to accept messages because your inbox is full. This confirmation email is not an acceptance of your order, it is only a confirmation that Borneo has received your order. Acceptance of your order shall be completed when Borneo sends a shipping notification email to you to confirm that the items have been sent to you.
When you would like to continue your shopping in the webshop after ordering one item, click on the “Continue Shopping” icon.
Purchase information

Purchase prices are displayed Euro in our webshop, and include value added tax (VAT) in accordance with Hungarian tax rules (27%), but do not include shipping fees. Shipping fees are displayed separately also in Euro in the order summary.
In case we introduce special sale prices, we provide detailed information to our customers in relation thereto. If clearly incorrect purchase prices are indicated in our webshop, e.g. an incorrectly low purchase price is indicated caused by an eventual system malfunction, Borneo shall not accept the order and shall not deliver the product at such incorrect purchase price. In such a case we offer to deliver the product at the correct purchase price to you, and you are entitled to withdraw your order regarding such product. The order confirmed by Borneo at an incorrect purchase price shall be deemed as a null and void contract.
Borneo accepts the following types of payments: Stripe or PayPal. Payment can be made by Visa, Visa Electron, Visa Debit, Visa Delta, MasterCard, Maestro debit cards, and any other methods which may be clearly indicated in the webshop from time to time. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to authorize the payment to Borneo, we shall not be liable for any delay or non-delivery. The total amount to be paid includes all costs on the basis of your order and the confirmation email. The invoice shall be sent to you in the package.
The fulfilment of the order, delivery and return
Borneo delivers the products worldwide through the courier services of DHL and GLS. We are not liable for customs clearance procedures.
In case of a faulty product, the customer must send a picture of the concerned product to the Customer Service before returning it to Borneo. The Customer Service will inform the customer about the conditions of the return. The products, must always be returned with the original hangtags and accompanied by any related accessories (such as bags, ropes, fringes etc.). In case of returning defective items, the shipping fee of the returning product/products is paid by Borneo and a pick-up is organized by Borneo. Borneo’s carrier delivers the new product in the course of replacement of defective items. In this case, the shipping fee and the customs clearance fee are paid by Borneo and Borneo shall pay back the whole amount of purchase price to you in the same payment method as the original payment was made.
In all other cases of returning, all the direct costs incurred in relation of the return shall be borne by the customer. As we receive the returned product, a quality control procedure shall take place in order to determine the appropriateness of the returned product.

Any product dispatched by the customer after the fourteen-day deadline will not be eligible for a refund and will be shipped back to the customer.
When any defect occurs in our webshop in relation to products or prices, Borneo maintains its right to correction. In this case Borneo informs you about the new data without delay. You can then confirm your order once again, or any party is entitled to withdraw from the contract. We may, in our sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person. In the event that we make a change to or cancel an order, we may attempt to notify you by contacting the e-mail and/or billing address/phone number provided at the time the order was made. We reserve the right to restrict multiple quantities of an item being shipped to any one customer or postal address.
