Cancellation Policy | Elena Popa Paintings

A consumer is any natural person who completes a legal transaction for purposes that are for the most part not attributable to any professional activity of either a commercial or self-employed nature they engage in.

Right of Cancellation (14-Day Period)

You have the right to cancel this contract for defective products within a fourteen-day cancellation period that begins on the day on which you or a third party nominated by you (you cannot nominate the carrier) take(s) receipt of the goods. In order to exercise your right of cancellation you must notify us:

Elena Popa Paintings
operated by Rave Painter's Shop UG
Hauptstraße 194
79739 Schwörstadt
Germany
Email: hello@ellen-paintings.art

of your decision to cancel this contract by means of an unequivocal declaration (e.g. in the form of a letter sent by post or an email). You can - but are not obliged to - use the cancellation form template appended to this cancellation policy. You will be deemed to have complied with the aforementioned cancellation period if your letter or email notifying us of the use of your right of cancellation was sent prior to the expiry of the cancellation period.

Consequences of Cancellation & Refunds

If you cancel this contract, we are required to pay back all payments we have received from you (including shipping costs but excluding additional costs incurred as a result of you selecting a different shipping option to the standard, lowest cost shipping option we offer) without delay and within a maximum period of fourteen days from the date on which we receive your letter, fax or email notifying us of the cancellation of the contract. Repayment occurs using the same payment type you used for the original transaction unless otherwise agreed with you; under no circumstances will you be charged any fees in connection with repayment. We reserve the right to refuse repayment until such time as we have taken receipt of the returned goods or until such time as you have provided evidence that you have returned the goods (whichever is the earlier point in time). You are required to return the goods to us without delay and within a maximum period of fourteen days from the date on which you notify us of the cancellation of this contract. You will be deemed to have complied with the aforementioned returns period if you dispatch the goods before the expiry of the fourteen-day period.

You are liable for the direct cost of returning the goods.

You are only liable for any depreciation in the value of the goods if such depreciation is attributable to the non-essential handling of the goods by you for purposes other than the verification of the nature, properties and functionality thereof.

Exclusion and premature expiry of the right of cancellation

Custom Orders & Exceptions

Important Notice for Commissioned Artwork: As an artist, much of my work is created specifically for the individual. In accordance with legal standards for the supply of goods, the right of cancellation does not apply to contracts for the supply of goods that are not prefabricated and whose fabrication is defined by the consumer’s choices or clearly tailored to the consumer's personal requirements.

Exclusion of Right to Cancel

The 14-day cancellation period expires prematurely or does not apply in the following instances:

  • Bespoke Commissions: Any Neocubist painting or artwork created based on your specific requests, personal requirements, or unique color and size specifications.
  • Inseparably Mixed Goods: Any items which, by their nature, have been inseparably mixed with other items after delivery.
  • Sealed Media: The supply of audio or video recordings or computer software in a sealed package, insofar as the seal was removed after delivery.

By commissioning a custom piece from Elena Popa, you acknowledge that the creative process begins upon your selection of specific options, making these works ineligible for standard returns under the "clearly tailored" legal provision.
