§ 1 General validity of terms and conditions
All the products and services (hereafter goods) offered by “Eliva”, (hereafter eliva-crete.com or seller), to its clients and customers (hereafter buyer), are governed by and subject to the terms and conditions contained herein. Variations and deviations from these are valid only subject to contracted agreements between the internet shop eliva-crete.com and the buyer, or explicitly specified in the general terms and conditions of sale.
§ 2 Purchase Order and Purchase Agreements
The buyer’s purchase order represents a binding offer towards eliva-crete.com to enter into a purchase agreement. The buyer’s purchase order will be acknowledged via e-mail, confirming the acceptance of the order and containing details of the purchase.

eliva-crete.com reserves the right to rectify and invoice the corrected price in case of apparent and evident mistakes (.e.g. calculation and clerical mistakes) on its Online-Shop Website. In such special cases the buyer is provided with the right to withdraw from the contract immediately, should the buyer not agree to the alterations. In case the goods are no longer available, the buyer will be informed to this effect and will be fully refunded.

§ 4 Reservations on terms of delivery
Goods are delivered subject to supply and stocks. The stated deadlines and time limits are not binding and without obligation, unless something in writing hitherto is explicitly agreed upon. Excepting other agreements, deliveries are subject to pre-payments only.

§ 7 Costs of return of goods
Should the buyer return the goods, under revocation, the buyer is liable to bear the costs incurred, returning the goods, if the goods delivered correspond to the goods ordered, or the price of the order does not exceed an amount of € 65.00 or in case of higher amount the buyer has not fulfilled the buyer’s obligations towards full or partial payment as agreed, at that given time.
§ 8 Terms and Right of Revocation
The buyer has the right of revocation without stating explicit reasons within a period of 14 days submitted in text format (e. g.

Consequences of revocation:
In the case of revocation becoming effective, both parties are required to return the services and benefits accrued (e.g. interests). In case of non-return of the services and benefits accrued in original form fully, or possibly only partial return or in imperfect conditions, commensurate compensatory replacement of value must be settled monetarily. This is not valid for goods left behind with the buyer, whose reduction in quality is verifiable only after testing and consumption (as possible in the case of sales in shops). The buyer can avoid compensatory replacement of value by treating the goods as not own, and undertake all precautions against influences leading to diminishing value of goods. Goods that can be transported via parcel services are to be returned at seller’s risk. The buyer is liable to bear the costs incurred returning the goods, if the goods delivered correspond to the goods ordered, or the price of the order does not exceed an amount of € 65.00 or in case of higher amount the buyer has not fulfilled the buyer’s obligations towards full or partial payment as agreed, at that given time. In other cases, the buyer can return the goods at free of cost. Goods that cannot be transported via parcel services will be picked up from the buyer. Obligations towards payments must be settled within 30 days, for the buyer, beginning from the date of dispatch of revocation or goods and for the seller, the date of receipt of goods by the seller.
The right of revocation does not apply for:
Goods, made to order for the buyer, or adapted to personal preferences of the buyer, or through characteristics of the goods not suitable for return, or possess limited durability and expiry or have exceeded their expiry dates. This also applies in the case deliveries of Audio- or Video recordings or Software, if the seal of the package is broken by the buyer.

The Mediterranean diet is now a standard model diet, which is linked to the prevention and cure of chronic diseases. For Cretans specifically, it is simply a lifestyle we have inherited from our ancestors. Olive oil, olives, honey, herbs, fruit and vegetables, legumes and more that Crete produces so generously and with unsurpassed quality, apart from a gastronomic delight they are also the shield of the body against major diseases afflicting people today. Our ancestors, knowing the beneficial contribution of these foods to human health, had studied for each disease its cure, which was no other than a plant, fruit or herb. 
Over the years these studies have been passed on as folk habits and cultures and for almost any health problem there was a particular recipe for dealing with any disease, many years before modern medicine was released.One of the most important balanced dietary behaviors is to enjoy our food at the table calmly, with company, satisfying both the social side of eating and to get involved in the preparation of our food and beverages knowing all the ingredients that make a delicious food.
Mrs. Myrsini Lambraki was born in Crete, the island which is known worldwide for the healthy eating habits of its inhabitants. Myrsini was born into a family with gastronomic roots, given that her great-grandfather and uncle were chefs.
