4. Ordering

(a) Placing an order. To order products, your 3D Model must be uploaded in our online portal; you upload the 3D Model in the Projects section of your account. Your 3D model will be validated after uploading. As the next step, we ask you to complete the 3D model by adding customized information we need for the delivery of the Onepush digital building package and affiliated products. After (re) validation you can Finalize your 3D model after which you can select the products you order in the Price breakdown section. Finally you will be asked to Produce your 3D. Please be informed that the language to be used during the whole ordering process is English.

(b) Unacceptable orders, cancellation of orders by us. If a 3D Model is uploaded and made available through our Website, the default assumption is that it can be produced. There are, however, technical or other reasons why Onepush may not accept or may cancel your order during the entire ordering process, even after our acceptance of your order. Such reasons can be, but are not limited to, the unfeasibility of the model, an infringing feature of your 3D Model (see our Content Policy). In case we cancel your partial or entire order, we will contact you via email and, except in cases of fraud or other violations of our policies, issue you a full refund for the cancelled item(s).

(c) Prices and quotes. The prices displayed on the Website or Embed are only indications and are valid only for the moment that they are displayed. Onepush reserves the right to change its prices on the website at any time without prior notice to you. Such change however will have no effect on orders completed before the posting of a new price on the website. We do our best to prevent errors in the pricing. However, should an error occur, we are not bound by our offer and may cancel the order. In the event of an error, any monies paid related to that order will be refunded to you.

You can download a quotation based on the price breakdown of your selection. When you select produce this is a binding agreement on price and selected products.

(d) Payment and price. The amount indicated on the price breakdown page includes: the building package, the additional products you selected, the service (such as scanning, customizing and revalidating the model). The price quoted on the Embed is for the cost of processing the item and downloadable products.

Onepush offers estimated currency conversions as a courtesy to users. These estimates are not guaranteed and may not reflect actual currency conversion rates.  If you pay in a currency that is different from the denominated currency (EURO) of your payment method (which is probably the case if your bank or credit card account is not denominated in U.S. Dollars or Euros), your payment company (such as your credit or bank card issuer) or third-party payment processor may apply a currency conversion rate or fees to your payment.  Please contact your provider for information about these fees.  These fees are not controlled by or known to Onepush.

You can initiate your payment for your order via Ideal or bank transfer. For a bank transfer you will receive the payment instructions via email from Onepush after confirmation of your order.

Onepush shall not be responsible in any way for the payment process done via the Ideal or bank website.

For orders paid for via bank transfer, Onepush can choose to  begin production after the funds arrive in the Onepush bank account. In the event that the selected payment method fails for any reason, Onepush reserves the right to process the payment again or require you to provide an alternative method of payment.

(e) Acceptance After accepting your order we will send you an order confirmation by e-mail to the address associated with your Onepush Account. The order confirmation will be effective as of the date on which the order confirmation is sent to you. If we cannot accept your order we will contact you by email. If there are errors you should contact us as soon as possible by sending an email to [email protected]

(f) Order Tracking Through the Website or – if you choose so – via e-mail notifications, you can track the status of your order e.g. accepted order, produced, delivered etc.

(g) Cancellation of your order, return of 3D Models. Due to the personalized nature of our Services (i.e. the 3D Model is supplied by you based on your specifications), you cannot cancel your order after it goes into production. Orders that contain non-refundable items are still cancelable, however note that refund or cancellation will not apply to items in the order that are non-refundable.

(h) Content Policy violations. If we determine that your model violates our Content Policy prior to producing, we will refuse to produce the model and issue a refund. If we determine that your model violates our Content Policy after it has been produced, we will not make the derived products available in your account.
