This does not affect the seller´s right to compensation according to para. 5.2.

  2. Delivering the claim form and shipping the claimed goods to one of the seller's brick-and-mortar stores, where the receipt of such goods is possible with regard to the products sold or services provided, or to an authorized person.

7.6. The buyer can ask the seller through the claim form to arrange transport to the claim center. In such a case, the seller shall arrange the transport of the claimed goods on behalf of the buyer at his own expense using parcel delivery services. The claimed goods are demeed to have been delivered to the seller on the day of their receipt by the seller in the claim center. The forwarder is a third party acting in his own name, and therefore collecting the claimed goods for transport by the forwarder does not affect the commencement of the claim settlement process.

7.7. The buyer is obliged to pack the claimed goods properly, taking into account their nature and the nature of the claimed defect. The seller shall be liable for any diminished value of the goods from the time of receiving them.

7.8. At the seller's premises and at the authorized person, the seller shall secure the presence of the person eligible to handle complaints during opening hours.

7.9. In the event that the buyer intends to deliver the claimed goods to one of the seller's brick-and-mortar stores, the seller recommends checking the possibility of receiving the goods at this place in advance.

7.10. When filing a claim, the buyer is obliged to prove that the goods have been purchased from the seller and the duration of the warranty period. Furthermore, the buyer is obliged to precisely indicate the type and the extent of the defects of the goods.

7.11. The day of the commencement of the claim settlement process is deemed to be the day on which the buyer is delivered:

7.13. The seller or an authorized person shall issue the buyer a confirmation of the claim in the appropriate form selected by the seller (including an e-mail), which shall contain the date of filing the claim, the contact details of the seller and the buyer, the description of the product defects, the method of settling the claim that the customer prefers and an instruction on customer rights arising from § 622 and § 623 of the Civil Code (hereinafter referred to as the "confirmation of the claim").

Concurrently, the buyer shall receive a claim protocol along with the goods. In the event that the buyer has filed a claim for the goods within the first 12 months of the date of the receipt of the goods, the seller can handle the claim by rejection solely on the basis of an expert opinion or a statement issued by an authorized, notified or accredited entity or an authorised individual (hereinafter "expert assessment of goods"). Regardless of the outcome of the professional assessment, the seller shall not require the buyer to finance the costs of the expert assessment of the goods or other costs related to the expert assessment of the goods. In the event that the buyer has filed a claim for the goods after 12 months from the date of the receipt of the goods and the seller has rejected it, the person handling the complaint is obliged to indicate in the claim settlement document who may be approached by the buyer for expert assessment of the goods. In the event that the buyer entrusts the authorized person specified in the claim settlement document to the goods to an expert assessment of the goods, the costs of the expert assessment of the goods as well as all other related purposefully incurred costs shall be borne by the seller, regardless of the result of the expert assessment.

Such a re-submitted claim cannot be rejected.

7.16. The seller can always exchange the defective item for a defect-free item, unless this causes major issues to the buyer.

7.17. The entitlement to a cost-free warranty repair terminates:

  14. in case of tampering with the goods by an unauthorized person or using the wrong tools or material,
  15. in case of inexpert intervention, transport damage, damage by water, fire, electricity or due to force majeure.
  16. by not performing an update of the digital content in a reasonable time, if the defect arose due to the failure to perform this update.

7.18. The seller is obliged to handle the complaint and settle the warranty claim in one of the following ways:

If the buyer fails to take over this item within a reasonable time, the seller shall ask him to do so within an additional reasonable time period specified by the seller, usually within one month. If the buyer does not take over the goods even within this additional reasonable time period, he is obliged to pay the seller a fee for storing the goods in the amount specified in this paragraph (hereinafter referred to as the "storage fee"), which gets charged for each started day from the deadline for taking over the goods until their handover. The amount of the storage fee shall be determined according to the weight and the sum of the dimensions of the goods calculated by adding up the length of its edges (sum of dimensions = height + width + depth), namely:

  1. 1 € (in words: one euro) for the storage of goods the weight of which does not exceed 10 kg and the sum of the dimensions does not exceed 120 cm;

  3. 4 € (in words: four euros) for the storage of other goods.

7.21. The warranty period is 24 months (hereinafter referred to as the "warranty period"), provided that no other warranty period is specified for specific cases. The warranty period shall commence on the date of receipt of the goods by the buyer. In the event that shelf life is indicated on the goods, their packaging or instructions in accordance with the legal regulations, the warranty period shall not end before the expiration of this period. Defects of the goods and the resulting claims must be exercised by the end of the warranty period. At the end of the warranty period, the right to claim the warranty expires.

7.21A. If the subject of the purchase contract is an item with digital properties, the seller shall ensure that the buyer is provided with the agreed updates of the digital content or digital content services. In addition to the agreed updates, the seller shall ensure that the buyer will be provided with updates that are necessary for the item to retain its properties and that the buyer will be notified of their availability

  1. during a period of 24 months, if according to the purchase contract the digital content or digital content service is to be provided continuously for a period of 24 months, or if provision is agreed for a longer period, then during this entire period, or
  2. for the period during which the buyer can reasonably expect it, if the digital content or digital content service is to be provided on a one-time basis according to the purchase contract; this must be assessed considering the type and purpose of the thing, the nature of the digital content or the digital content service as well as the circumstances of concluding the purchase contract and the nature of the obligation.

7.21B. Clause 7.21A. of these GTCs does not apply if the seller explicitly informed the buyer before concluding the contract that updates would not be provided and the buyer expressly agreed to this when concluding the contract.

7.21C. If the digital content or digital content service is to be provided continuously for a specified period of time and if a defect occurs during this period, the digital content or digital content service is deemed to have been provided incorrectly. The provisions of this Warranty Policy also apply to goods with digital properties, as far as their nature allows.

7.22. Used goods means goods that have been used, do not contain all parts, have cosmetic defects or their usability is limited (hereinafter referred to as "used goods"). Displayed goods means used goods that have been used by displaying in the seller's walk-in store, have been unpacked and could be used to the extent necessary to demonstrate their properties to other persons (hereinafter referred to as "displayed goods"). Defective goods means goods that have defects which render them unusable and therefore they are not fit for normal use (hereinafter referred to as "unusable goods").

7.23. The warranty period for all used goods is 24 months, unless a different, even shorter warranty period is specified for a specific product in the e-shop.

7.24. If the purchase price of the used item is lower than the price of the new goods, the defect causing the price reduction is not covered by the warranty. Defective goods may be unrepairable and are typically sold for spare parts or for collection purposes. Further description of the defects rendering the goods unusable, and thus defects that are not covered by the warranty, can be found in the description of the goods in the e-shop. Defective goods may be dangerous without prior repair or modification. The usability of defective goods is not covered by warranty.

7.25. The warranty period shall be extended by the period of time during which the buyer could not use the item due to its repair.

7.26. In the case of replacing goods for new ones, the warranty period commences from the handover of the new goods. The same applies in the event that a part of the goods covered by the warranty is replaced.

7.27. If the defect of the goods is repairable, the claim will be settled depending on the decision of the buyer either by repairing the defect or by replacing the goods.

7.28. Should it be impossible to have the defect removed by repair and should the defect prevent the proper use of the item as goods without defects, the buyer is entitled to a replacement of the item or he has the right to withdraw from the contract. The same rights apply to the buyer in the event of repairable defects, provided the buyer can not accordingly use the item due to the recurrence of the defect following the repair (more than twice) or due to a larger number of defects (more than two).

7.29. In the event of other irreparable defects, the buyer is entitled to an appropriate reduction in the price of the item, the amount of which will be determined by agreement of the contracting parties.

7.30. Claim settlement only applies to defects specified by the buyer when filing the claim.

7.31. If the seller settles the warranty claim by reasoned rejection of the claim, he may propose to the buyer to have the defects repaired at the buyer's expense. The buyer is not obliged to accept such a proposal.

7.32. If the seller settles the warranty claim by reasoned rejection of the claim and the buyer objects to such claim settlement, he may seek redress in court.

9.3. The buyer is entitled to withdraw from the contract the subject of which is the sale of goods without giving any reason for doing so within 14 days of the date on which the goods were received.

In this case, the buyer will bear the cost of returning the goods only up to an amount approximately corresponding to the price of domestic transport in the country in which the goods are collected, taking into account also the type, dimensions and weight of the goods in determining the amount of the cost. This amount will be shown to the buyer on the withdrawal form, and the buyer will agree to the amount of the charge by requesting collection of the goods. The seller is entitled to refuse to collect the goods from a country other than the one to which the goods were delivered. The other provisions of this article are not affected.

9.16. The buyer cannot withdraw from the contract if its subject is:

  1. the provision of a service, if the provision began with the express consent of the buyer and the buyer had declared that he had been duly informed that, by expressing this consent, he would lose the right to withdraw from the contract after the full provision of the service, and if the full provision of the service has taken place,
  2. the sale of goods or the provision of services, the price of which depends on price movements on the financial market, which the seller cannot influence and which may occur during the withdrawal period,
  3. the sale of goods made to the consumer's specific requirements, custom-made goods or goods tailored specifically for a single buyer (e.g. cables and chains sold per meter, helmets with installed communicator according to the buyer's requirement),

  7. the sale of alcoholic beverages, the price of which was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, their delivery being possible after 30 days at the earliest and their price dependant on market price movements which the seller cannot influence,
  8. the performance of urgent repairs or maintenance, which the buyer has explicitly requested from the seller; this does not apply to service contracts and contracts the subject of which is the sale of goods other than spare parts needed to carry out repairs or maintenance, if they were concluded in the course of the seller's visit to the buyer and the buyer had not pre-ordered these services or goods,
  9. the sale of audio recordings, video recordings, audiovisual recordings or computer software sold in sealed packaging, if the seal has been removed after delivery (e.g. CDs, cassettes, records),

  11. the provision of accommodation services for purposes other than housing, forwarding, car rental, provision of catering services or provision of services related to leisure activities and according to which the seller commits to providing these services at the agreed time or within the agreed period of time,
  12. the provision of electronic content in the way other than on a tangible medium, if the provision began with the express consent of the buyer and the buyer had declared that he had been duly informed that, by expressing this consent, he would lose the right to withdraw from the contract (e.g. digital / electronic software license).

9.16A. The buyer is entitled to withdraw from the contract, the subject of which is the delivery of a set of at least two interrelated products assembled by the seller and intended to be sold together (hereinafter referred to as "set"). The set shall be deemed to be a single item in relation to the right of withdrawal. This means that if the buyer withdraws from the contract, the subject of which is the delivery of the set, he is obliged to return to the seller the whole set, i.e. all the products that make up the set. The seller shall then refund the buyer the payment for the whole set under the terms and conditions set out in these GTCs. It is not possible to withdraw from the contract only partially, i.e. to return to the seller less than all the products constituting the set and to claim a refund for individual products. This is without prejudice to the buyer's right to return only one of the several products supplied in one order, unless these products are part of a set.

9.17. The seller reserves the right to cancel the order, or its part, if it is not possible for technical reasons to deliver the goods within the required time or for the required price. In this case, the seller shall reimburse any payments which the buyer has already made withing 14 working days. This does not affect the right of the contracting parties to agree on a replacement performance or an amended price.

10. ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION

10.1. The buyer - consumer is entitled to use an alternative method of dispute resolution by contacting the seller for redress if he is not satisfied with the way the seller has handled his complaint or if he believes that the seller has violated his rights.

7.16. After settling the warranty claim in a way other than returning the purchase price, the seller shall return the claimed item or deliver a replacement item to the buyer.

The warranty period shall commence on the date of receipt of the goods by the buyer. This warranty period expires regardless of whether a longer warranty period or shelf life is indicated on the packaging of the goods.

7.19. The warranty period for all used goods is 12 months, unless a different, even shorter warranty period is specified for a specific product in the e-shop.

7.20. If the purchase price of the used item is lower than the price of the new goods, the defect causing the price reduction is not covered by the warranty. Defective goods may be unrepairable and are typically sold for spare parts or for collection purposes. Further description of the defects rendering the goods unusable, and thus defects that are not covered by the warranty, can be found in the description of the goods in the e-shop. Defective goods may be dangerous without prior repair or modification. The usability of defective goods is not covered by the warranty.

7.21. The warranty period shall be extended by the period of time during which the buyer could not use the item due to its repair.

7.23. If the defect of the goods is repairable, the seller shall arrange for its repair. If repair is not possible and the nature of the defect does not prevent the normal use of the goods, the parties may agree on an appropriate reduction in the price of the goods; in such a case, it is not possible to claim again the defect for which the appropriate reduction has been agreed.

7.24. Should it be impossible to repair the defect and should the defect prevent the proper use of the item, the buyer is entitled, unless the parties agree otherwise, to exchange the defective goods for goods with the same or similar performance characteristics, or to issue a credit note to the buyer in the amount of the purchase price which the buyer can apply for his next purchase from the seller.

  2. require the elimination of the defects by repairing the goods, if the defects are repairable,
  3. request an appropriate reduction in the purchase price, or
  4. withdraw from the contract.

7.26. The choice of the type of the remedy is on the buyer only if he informs the seller of his choice as part of the notification of the defects submitted in a timely manner or without undue delay following this notification. The buyer cannot change the selected type of remedy without the seller´s consent. However, if the defects of the goods prove to be irreparable or the repair would incur disproportionate costs, the buyer may require delivery of replacement goods, provided the buyer requests this without undue delay after the seller has notified him of this fact. If the seller fails to have the defect removed by repair the defects of the goods within a reasonable additional period or if he announces before its expiration that he will not remove the defects, the buyer may withdraw from the contract or request an appropriate reduction in the purchase price.

7.27. If the buyer does not notify the seller of the type of the remedy within the period specified in this Warranty Policy, he is entitled to remedies as in the case of a minor breach of contract.

7.28. If delivering the defective goods violates the contract in an insignificant manner, the buyer can request the delivery of the missing goods, the repair of the defects in the goods or a reduction in the purchase price.

7.29. Until the buyer claims a reduction in the purchase price or until he withdraws from the contract, the seller is obliged to deliver the missing goods and to remedy legal defects of the goods. He is obliged to remove other defects at his discretion either by repairing the goods or by delivering replacement goods.

7.30. In the event that the buyer requests the repair of defects in the goods, he may not exercise claims for defects in the goods other than the claim for damages before the expiry of an additional reasonable period specified by the buyer; this does not apply if the seller notifies the buyer that he will not fulfill his obligations within this period.

7.31. If the buyer does not specify an additional deadline or does not claim a reduction in the purchase price, an additional period for the removal of defects may be specified by the seller. If the buyer, without undue delay after the seller notifies him of the determination of the additional deadline, does not notify the seller of his disagreement with this period, such notice shall be deemed to be the determination of the deadline in accordance with this Warranty Policy.

7.32. If the seller fails to remove the defects of the goods within the period stated by this Warranty Policy, the buyer is entitled to claim a reduction in the purchase price or to withdraw from the contract provided that he notifies the seller of his / her intention to withdraw from the contract at the time of determining the deadline under this Warranty Policy or within a reasonable period before the withdrawal. The buyer cannot change the already selected remedy without the consent of the seller.

7.33. For the purposes of these GTCs, a breach of the contract is deemed material if the breaching party was aware at the time of concluding the contract that the other contracting party would refuse to fulfill his obligations in the event of such a breach of contract, or if such a consequence was reasonable to anticipate at the time of concluding the contract, taking into account the purpose of the contract or the circumstances in which the contract was concluded. In case of doubt, it is assumed that the breach of contract is not material.

7.34. Claim settlement only applies to defects specified by the buyer when filing the claim.

7.35. The buyer's right to claim a defect is depleted after exercising his right and asking the seller to remove the defect of the goods and regardless of the outcome of the claim settlement he is no longer entitled to file a recurrence claim for the same defect.

7.36. If the seller settles the warranty claim by reasoned rejection of the claim, he may propose to the buyer to have the defects repaired at the buyer's expense. In the event of a reasoned rejection of the claim, the seller may also demand reimbursement of the costs incurred in handling the complaint, especially costs related to the diagnosis of the defect performed by a third party (authorized service provider) and the transport of the goods.

7.37. If the seller settles the warranty claim by reasoned rejection of the claim, and the buyer objects to such claim settlement, he may seek redress in court.

8. STATUTORY RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

8.1. The seller is entitled to withdraw from the contract for reasons specified in these GTCs and generally binding legal regulations. Furthermore, the seller is entitled to withdraw from the contract due to stock shortage, unavailability of the goods, or if the manufacturer, the importer or the supplier of goods agreed in the contract has discontinued production or made such major changes that have made it impossible to fulfill the seller's obligations under the contract or for reasons of force majeure, or if, even with all reasonable efforts, he is unable to deliver the goods to the customer within the time specified in these GTCs or for the agreed price. The seller is obliged to inform the buyer of this fact without undue delay and return all payments to the buyer in accordance with these GTCs. This does not affect the right of the contracting parties to agree on a replacement performance or an amended price.

8.2. The seller is entitled to withdraw from the contract also if the purchase price stated for the goods at the time of concluding the purchase agreement was clearly incorrect (e.g. incorrectly placed decimal point, a missing digit, the purchase price clearly not in line with the normal market price).

8.3. The buyer is entitled to withdraw from the contract only for reasons specified in this part of the GTCs or a generally binding legal regulation. The buyer - business entity is not entitled to withdraw from the contract for the same reasons for which, according to the first part of these GTC, only the buyer - consumer is entitled to withdraw from the contract (for instance, withdrawal from the contract even without giving any reason for doing so within 14 days).

9.6. The contracting parties shall use their best efforts to amicably settle any dispute, controversy or claim that may arise between them regarding these GTCs, the contract or in connection with it.

2.4. The goods that are sent to the buyer as replacement for the original goods are covered by the Shipping Insurance in the same way as the original goods, automatically and without the obligation of further payments.

3. PROVISION OF THE SERVICE AND WITHDRAWAL FROM THE CONTRACT

3.1. The buyer - consumer is entitled to withdraw from the contract for the complementary service without giving any reason for doing so within 14 days of the date of its conclusion, but no later than until its full performance. Withdrawal solely from the contract for the complementary service does not affect the duration of the purchase agreement. The procedure for withdrawal from the purchase agreement defined in these GTCs shall also apply mutatis mutandis to the withdrawal from the supplementary contract.

  1. has been duly informed of the impossibility to withdraw from the contract for the complementary service pursuant to the preceding paragraph, and
  2. agrees to start providing the Shipping Insurance service before the expiration of the withdrawal period.

3.5. This does not affect the right of the buyer - consumer to withdraw from the purchase agreement in accordance with these GTCs or his / her right to file a claim in accordance with the Warranty Policy. If the buyer withdraws from the purchase agreement after the expiration of the period for exercising a claim arising from this complementary service, the seller is not obliged to reimburse the fee for the Shipping Insurance service to the buyer.

Likewise, the entitlement to collect points shall not arise for the purchase of goods that are the subject of the order, for which the previously obtained points have even partially been applied. The points cannot be applied for the order for which they are to be collected.

4.5. If the contract was concluded via the e-shop, the points earned will be credited to the member and the member will not be able to use them until 30 days have elapsed from the date of receipt of the goods. If the contract was concluded in a brick-and-mortar shop, the points earned will be credited to the member and can be used immediately; this does not apply if the member has chosen the instalment or invoice payment option. In this case, the points earned will be credited to the member and the member will not be able to use them until 30 days have elapsed from the date of receipt of payment by the operator.

4.6. The current balance of the available points shall be displayed to the club member when he / she actively logs in to his / her customer account, or, when shopping at one of the brick-and-mortar stores, it shall be indicated on the cash payment receipt for the purchase, or this information shall be provided by the staff of the brick-and-mortar store upon request.

4.7. If the club member does not make a new purchase using the loyalty card in the active login status or in the brick-and-mortar store within 24 months of the last purchase, his/her previously earned points will expire. Whether this new purchase results in the acquisition of new points or the redemption of available points is irrelevant.

4.8. In order to use the collected points, the member shall determine how many of the available points he / she intends to use for the order prior to submitting the order. The number of points thus selected shall be reflected in a reduction in the purchase price, with the purchase price being reduced by one euro cent for each point used. In this way, it is possible to obtain the goods free of charge if the purchase price is reduced to € 0 (in words: zero euros).

4.9. The collected points can only be used for purchases from the operator's e-shop. It is not possible to use the points for purchases in the operator's brick-and-mortar stores.

4.10. In the event of withdrawal from the purchase agreement by one of the parties in any way, the operator is not obliged to return the used points to the club member. If the club member has not reduced the purchase price to € 0 by paying with points and he / she has paid the reduced purchase price, the operator shall refund the payment only in the amount of the reduced purchase price.

5.1. A club member is entitled to withdraw from the contract concluded through the e-shop without giving any reason for doing so after the expiration of the statutory 14-day withdrawal period, no later than 30 days from the date of delivery (hereinafter "extended withdrawal period").

5.2. Exercising this right is conditioned on club membership, ownership of the loyalty card and being logged in to the customer account when submitting the order. The right to withdraw from the contract in the extended period applies only to the goods which are the subject of the order according to the previous sentence and which are undamaged, without signs of use and packed in the original packaging.

5.3. In the event of withdrawal from the contract within the extended period, the operator shall not reimburse the payment to the club member, but shall issue him / her a credit note in the amount of the purchase price which the buyer can apply for his / her next purchase from the seller.

5.4. Withdrawal from the contract within the extended period is not possible in the same cases where it is not possible to withdraw from the contract within the statutory period. The other provisions of these GTC on withdrawal from the contract shall apply mutatis mutandis.

5.5. This does not affect the right of the buyer - consumer to withdraw from the purchase agreement pursuant to these GTCs or the right to file a claim in accordance with the Warranty Policy.
