3. Conditions of Payment

You will only be able to pay for any goods you have ordered after receiving the confirmation email and a separate email with a link to a payment page. Payments can only be made using payment cards.

After placing your order and receiving a confirmation email, but no later than 6 hours after placing the order on the airBalticShop.lv internet shop, you will receive an email with a link to a payment page. Please remember that orders must be paid for within 48 hours of receiving the email with the link to the payment page if a different payment time is not specified. Please follow the instructions shown on the email. After we have received payment, you will receive an email confirming receipt of your payment which is also a document confirming the transaction.

Card payments are done through the First Data Latvia (FDL) payment page. On the page you will have to enter your card number, card end date, security code (CVV/CVC), and card holder’s name and surname.

All data transferred between your computer and the FDL server is secured using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocols. These protocols ensure data encryption with a 128 bit encryption key, which is a widely accepted and secure standard for protecting information. Information about your payment card is sent only to FDL, and neither airBalticShop.lv internet shop employees nor any other unauthorised persons have access to this information. 

Payment for goods can only be made using American Express, MasterCard, Maestro, VISA, VISA Electron and VISA Virtual payment cards, if the bank that has issued the card has approved it for use for online payments. Payments through the airBalticShop.lv internet shop are safe and comply with all international standards.

4. Signing Contract

After placing an order through the souvenirs.airbaltic.com you will receive a confirmation email confirming your order, which does not yet mean that the goods ordered are guaranteed; i.e. is not seen as a legally binding order receipt. After placing an order through the souvenirs.airbaltic.com internet shop, we will double check the availability of the goods and send an email with a link to a payment page if the goods are available. A contract between you and airBaltic is considered signed from the moment we receive payment for the goods ordered. After receiving payment we will send confirmation of the receipt of payment, which also acts as a document confirming the transaction, to your email, and deliver your ordered goods in accordance with the conditions of the contract. All goods remain property of airBaltic until full payment is received. 

If, after receiving your order, we discover that your chosen goods are unavailable or unavailable in the amount which you have specified, our Customer Service centre will contact you to inform you about the availability of your goods and give you the opportunity to change or cancel your order.

The price specified on the souvenirs.airbaltic.com internet shop includes any VAT applicable to the item. Delivery fees are not included in the initial price shown for the item but are included when choosing the delivery method.

We accept no responsibility for printing errors (of which we hope there will be none), except for those which occur as a result of gross negligence on the part of airBaltic.

The contract is seen as fulfilled from the moment we have received full payment for the goods ordered and you have received these goods.

5. Changes to the Order

If, after changing your delivery collection method, you choose a method which is available at no cost or at a smaller cost to that which you paid when placing your order, we will return the money paid for delivery or the price difference. However, in this case you will have to cover any costs associated with refunds.

The Customer Service centre will help you to cancel your order, but ONLY in the event that the goods have not yet been dispatched.

If you cancel your order before delivery of the goods but after payment for the goods has been made, your money paid for the goods will be returned; however, in this case you will be responsible for any costs associated with returning your money.

8. Consumer Rights of Withdrawal

We guarantee the rights of consumers to use the Consumer rights protections in law and the rights of withdrawal provided in the 20th of May 2014 Cabinet Ministry regulation No. 255 “Regulations Regarding Distance Contracts” (hereafter - Regulations Regarding Distance Contracts.)

If you are a consumer - an individual who is acting outside of the responsibilities of their job, business or profession, then you have the right, without stating a reason, to unilaterally withdraw from the contract and return the ordered goods as long as they are not destroyed or damaged from the fault or carelessness of you or a third person, as well as if none of the situations in point 22 of the Regulations Regarding Distance Contracts when rights of withdrawal cannot be used apply. You must inform us of your using your rights of withdrawal no later than fourteen (14) days after you or a third person nominated by you has received the goods ordered, i.e. after they have been delivered.

To use your rights of withdrawal, you must inform our Customer Service centre ( AS “Air Baltic Corporation”; Reg.no. 40003245752, Legal address: Tehnikas ielā 3, Lidosta Rīga, Mārupes novads, LV-1053, Latvia) with an unambiguous letter to the address shown or by email: shop@airbaltic.lv. You can also use an electronic form available on souvenirs.airbaltic.com; however, this is not obligatory.

In order to comply with the withdrawal rights deadline, it is enough that your notice of withdrawal is sent to us before the withdrawal rights deadline.

We ask that you provide the following information in your notice of using your withdrawal rights: a) order and b) invoice number and c) the item number(s) which is/are being returned.

Consequences of Using Your Withdrawal Rights:  If you withdraw from the contract, we will repay all payments received by you including delivery costs (excluding extra costs which have arisen from you choosing the delivery collection method which is not the cheapest standard delivery method which we offer), without unfounded delay and in any case no later than fourteen (14) days from the day we were informed about your decision to withdraw from the contract. However, please take into account that, if you use your withdrawal rights after we have sent you your goods, we can delay your repayment until we have received the returned goods or until you have submitted evidence that the goods have been sent back, whichever happens first. The refund will take place using the same payment method that you used for the initial transaction, unless you have clearly stated your agreement for it to occur otherwise. In any case, you will not be charged in relation to this repayment.

You must send us or hand us the goods without unfounded delay and in any case no later than fourteen (14) days from when you informed us about your decision to withdraw from the contract. The deadline will be adhered to if you send the goods back before the end of the fourteen (14) day deadline.

You will have to cover the costs associated with sending/handing the goods back to us, and postal delivery must not be paid for with post-payment. Direct expenses associated with the return of the goods will only be covered by us if an item is returned for being damaged or not complying with the contract.

Please take into account that you will be responsible for the decrease in value of the goods if an item has been used for purposes other than to ascertain its type, attributes and operation. Therefore returned goods must have been used according to their instructions, they must be undamaged and, if possible, in their original packaging. If you have purchased audio or video recordings or software, the packaging of the returned goods must be unopened.

9. Complaints, their Submission, and Procedure for Consideration in case of Damaged Goods or Goods which do not Comply with the Contract

We guarantee that ordered goods will be delivered without defects and in accordance with the conditions of the contract. If, however, you received damaged goods or goods which do not comply with the conditions of the contract, then contact our Customer Service centre immediately or within two (2) months of discovering the damage or non-compliance with the conditions of the contract by emailing: shop@airbaltic.lv, or by filling in an electronic form on souvenirs.airbaltic.com. If you have received goods which are damaged and/or don’t comply with the conditions of the contract, we, adhering to the regulations of the Consumer Rights Protection law, will ensure one of the following solutions:

-       If possible, we will remove the damage or non-compliance with the conditions of the contract; or

-       If possible, we will exchange the goods for non-damaged goods or goods which comply with the conditions of the contract; or

-       We will reduce the price of the goods; or

-       We will cancel the contract and refund the money paid for the goods.

After notice has been given of the damage to the goods or non-compliance with the conditions of the contract, we will ask you to return the damaged and/or non-compliant goods in the same condition in which you received them or in the same condition as they were after being damaged or after it was discovered that the goods did not comply with the contract. In order to resolve your complaint about goods which are damaged or do not comply with the conditions of the contract, goods must be returned without additional damage and, if possible, in the original packaging. We will cover the costs of sending back goods which are damaged and/or do not comply with the conditions of the contract, unless you have chosen a return method which is not the cheapest basic standard delivery method that we offer, after receiving documentation confirming the costs.

Your complaint about goods which are damaged and/or do not comply with the conditions of the contract will be evaluated within a reasonable time period, and we will answer you offering one of the aforementioned solutions.
