Information about the Goods, including prices and main characteristics, is provided for each product in the Online Store. The prices of the Goods are stated including VAT.

  2. The Seller undertakes to deliver the Goods according to the Buyer’s order, transport them to the delivery address or delivery point selected by the Buyer, and hand them over in accordance with these GTC. Information on the costs associated with packaging and delivery is displayed in the Online Store. The amount of delivery costs may vary depending on the selected delivery method and the country of delivery. The Buyer is always informed of the final delivery costs during checkout before placing the order.

  2. By placing an order, the Buyer confirms that they have read these GTC and agree with their current wording.

  3. The Seller shall confirm receipt of the order to the Buyer without undue delay via e-mail to the e-mail address provided by the Buyer. This confirmation of receipt does not constitute acceptance of the order.

  5. A properly placed order means in particular that the Buyer provides all required data in the checkout process, especially the Buyer’s name, delivery address (or delivery point selection, if applicable), e-mail address, telephone number, the selected Goods and quantity, and chooses a payment and delivery method offered by the Online Store.

  6. Before the Buyer submits the order, the Buyer is allowed to check and change the data entered, including the ability to detect and correct errors made when entering data. The data stated in the order is considered correct.

  10. If the shipment is returned to the Seller as undeliverable or the Buyer does not accept the shipment from the carrier, or does not collect it at the delivery point within the specified storage period, the Seller is entitled to demand compensation for the damage incurred, in particular costs associated with transport, packaging, handling, storage or disposal of the shipment.

VI. Complaints procedure

1. General provisions

  1. These complaints rules apply to all tangible movable goods purchased in the Seller’s Online Store (the “Goods”). For the purposes of these complaints rules, a consumer is any natural person who, outside the scope of their business activity, concludes a contract with an entrepreneur or otherwise deals with them.

  2. The Seller is liable to the Buyer that the Goods are free from defects upon receipt. In particular, the Seller is liable that the Goods:

    • correspond to the agreed description, type and quantity, and have the agreed quality, functionality, compatibility and other agreed characteristics, and

    • are suitable for the purpose for which the Buyer requires them and to which the Seller has agreed.

  3. In addition to the agreed properties, the Goods shall:

    • be suitable for the purpose for which goods of this type are normally used, taking into account legal regulations and standards,

    • correspond in quality and other characteristics to the usual characteristics of goods of the same type that the Buyer can reasonably expect, taking into account public statements (advertising/labeling), unless the Seller proves the legal exceptions,

    • be delivered with accessories and instructions for use that the Buyer can reasonably expect.

  4. If a defect becomes apparent within one year of receipt, it is presumed that the Goods were defective upon receipt, unless the nature of the Goods or defect precludes this.

  5. The Buyer may claim a defect that becomes apparent within two years of receipt. If the Goods are defective, the Buyer may request removal of the defect by delivery of new Goods without defect, unless this is impossible or disproportionately expensive. The Seller may refuse if removal is impossible or disproportionately expensive, taking into account the significance of the defect and the value without defect.

  6. The Buyer may request a reasonable discount or withdraw from the contract if:

    • the Seller refused or failed to remove the defect within a reasonable time,

    • the defect appears repeatedly,

    • the defect is a material breach of contract, or

    • it is clear the defect will not be remedied without significant inconvenience to the Buyer.

  7. The Buyer has no rights from defective performance if the defect was caused by the Buyer.

  8. Wear and tear caused by normal use is not a defect.

2. Exercising rights from defective performance (complaint)

  1. The Buyer may exercise rights from defects (the “Complaint”) only if they prove that the Goods were purchased from the Seller (e.g., order confirmation, proof of payment). The Buyer shall provide their name and contact details.

  2. The Buyer shall indicate which right they are exercising and what method of complaint resolution they request.

  3. If the Complaint is justified, the Buyer has the right to reimbursement of reasonably incurred costs associated with exercising the right, under the conditions of Section 1924 of the Civil Code, provided it is claimed no later than one month after the expiry of the period for notifying the defect.

  4. The Buyer shall send the Goods for complaint to the Seller’s registered office address. Delivery via services that do not deliver directly to the Seller (e.g., parcel lockers / third-party pick-up points not delivering to the Seller’s address) may not be used unless the Seller agrees otherwise.

3. Time limits for handling complaints

  1. If the Buyer is a consumer, the Seller shall resolve the complaint, including removal of the defect, and inform the consumer no later than 30 days from the date of complaint, unless the Seller and the consumer agree on a longer period.

  2. In other cases, the Seller shall remedy the defect within a reasonable time without causing significant inconvenience, taking into account the nature of the Goods and the purpose of purchase.


VII. Processing of personal data

  1. The Seller processes the Buyer’s personal data necessary for concluding and performing the Purchase Contract and for protecting the Seller’s rights. Other personal data may be processed on the basis of the Buyer’s consent, which may be revoked at any time.

  2. The Buyer acknowledges that the Seller may authorize a third party as a processor to process personal data.

  2. All agreements between the Seller and the Buyer are governed by the laws of the Czech Republic. If the contractual relationship contains an international element, this does not affect consumer rights arising from mandatory legal provisions of the country of the consumer’s habitual residence.

  3. All rights to the Online Store, including copyright to its content, layout, photos, videos, graphics, trademarks and logos, belong to the Seller. Use without the Seller’s consent is prohibited.
