9.2 The Operator is liable to the User for the fact that the Goods are in compliance with the Purchase Agreement, in particular that they are defect-free. Compliance with the Purchase Agreement means that the Goods have the quality and functional characteristics provided for by the Purchase Agreement, described by the Operator, manufacturer or his/her representative, or expected on the basis of advertising, or the quality and functional characteristics are common to a thing of this kind. Compliance with the Purchase Agreement also means that the Goods comply with the requirements of legislation, they are in the appropriate quantity, size or weight and correspond to the purpose stated by the Operator for the use of the thing or for which the thing is usually used. 

9.3 If the Goods do not comply with the Purchase Agreement upon receipt, the User has the right to have the Operator bring the Goods into conformity with the Purchase Agreement free of charge and without undue delay, according to the User's request either by replacing the Goods or repairing them; if this is not possible, the User may request an appropriate reduction in the Purchase Price or withdraw from the Purchase Agreement. This does not apply if the User knew about the lack of conformity before accepting the Goods or he or she caused the lack of conformity himself/herself. A lack of conformity with the Purchase Agreement which becomes apparent within 6 months of receipt of the Goods shall be deemed to exist on receipt of the Goods unless it contradicts the nature of the Goods or the contrary is proven. 

9.4 If the Goods are not perishable or used, the Operator is liable for the defects which appear as a lack of conformity with the Purchase Agreement after receipt of the Goods during the warranty period (warranty). 

9.5 The User's rights arising from the Operator's liability for defects, including the Operator's warranty liability, are exercised by the User with the Operator. The User's rights arising from the Operator's liability for defects, including the Operator's warranty liability, are exercised with the Operator (see point 1.8 of GT&C). The moment of claim is considered to be the moment when the Operator received the claimed Goods from the User.

X. Quality Warranty

10.1 By the Quality Warranty, the Operator shall undertake that the Goods will be capable of being used for typical purposes for a specified time or that they will retain their usual characteristics.

10.2 The warranty period starts to run from the date of receipt of the Goods by the User. The Goods are delivered with a 24-month warranty unless otherwise stated. If a different period of use is marked on the Goods, their packaging or in the manual in accordance with special legal regulations, the warranty period expires at the end of the longest period. If the parties agree on a different warranty period than the period marked on the packaging as shelf life, the agreement of the parties shall prevail. 

10.3 The warranty period is extended by the time the Goods are repaired under such warranty. If the Goods are replaced during the warranty period, the new warranty period does not run. 

10.4 The Operator provides a warranty in writing (warranty card). If the nature of the Goods allows, it is sufficient to issue a bill of sale containing the details that must be included in the warranty card.

10.5 If an extended warranty (longer than statutory warranty) is provided, the Operator shall specify the conditions and the scope of the warranty extension in the warranty card. 

10.6 The warranty only covers manufacturing defects; it does not cover defects of the Goods (or their parts) caused by ordinary wear and tear, defects caused by improper or inappropriate use of the Goods or defects caused by improper handling and/or storage. In such a case, a shorter shelf life of the Goods cannot be considered as a defect and cannot be claimed as such. 

10.7 In particular, the warranty cannot be claimed in the following cases:

If the Goods were sold at a lower Purchase Price, the warranty cannot be claimed for the defect for which the lower Purchase Price was agreed.

10.8 The User does not have the right arising from warranty if the defect was caused by an external event after the risk of damage to the thing passed to him. This does not apply if the defect was caused by the Operator. 

XI. Claims

11.1 Claims can be filed at the Operator's registered office (see point 1.8 of GT&C). Claimed Goods can be delivered by post or courier service.

The Operator does not accept any unsolicited cash-on-delivery parcels or items at the cost of the Operator. 

11.5 Claims, including the repair of defects, will be settled without undue delay, but no later than 30 days from the date of the complaint, unless the Operator and User agree on a longer period. After the expiration of this period, the User is granted the same rights as if it were a material breach of the Purchase Agreement. 

11.6 Time limits for settling claims are suspended if the Operator has not received all the documents necessary for settling the claims (parts of the Goods, other documents etc.). The Operator is obliged to ask the User to provide additional proof or supporting documents in the shortest possible time. Time limits are suspended from this date until the User delivers the requested documents. 

11.7 If the claim is not justified, the Operator informs the User about the possibility of performing a paid repair according to the valid price list. At the same time, the Operator informs the User mainly about the cost of repair, the extent of repair and the time needed to perform it. The Operator may perform paid repairs of the Goods only with the User's prior express consent. 

XII. Transportation claims

12.1 If the Goods are damaged in transit, the carrier shall be held liable for the damage. The Operator recommends that the User check the consignment immediately after receipt in front of the carrier to see whether the consignment is visibly damaged (crumpled, torn, soaking packaging, etc.) and if he finds defects, he immediately draw up a report with the carrier on damage to the consignment and he not accept the consignment (or immediately contact the Operator at his email address according to point 1.8 of GT&C). The Operator also recommends that the User does not allow the carrier to persuade him that the consignment was not well secured. 

XIII. GDPR

14.4 If any provision of the GT&C is invalid or ineffective, or becomes so, the invalid provision shall be replaced by a provision whose meaning as is close as possible to the invalid provision.
