The Consumer cannot withdraw from the contract if the defect of the Product is minor;

- The Seller will respond to the Consumer’s complaint promptly, no later than 14 days from the date of receipt. If the Customer/Consumer requested a replacement of the item or removal of the defect or submitted a declaration to reduce the price specifying the amount by which the price should be reduced, and the Seller has not responded to this request within 14 days from receipt, the request is considered justified.

- In the case of the Consumer exercising the Statutory Right of Withdrawal, the Seller will refund the payment using the same payment method used by the Consumer unless the Consumer has explicitly agreed to another method of refund which does not involve any costs for them. In the case of the Consumer exercising the Extended Right of Withdrawal, the Seller may refund the payment using the method indicated by the Seller. If the Seller did not offer to collect the Product from the Consumer, they may withhold the refund until they receive the Product back or until the Consumer provides proof of sending the Product back, whichever occurs first.
- The Consumer is obliged to return the Product to the Seller or hand it over to a person authorized by the Seller to collect it, immediately and no later than 14 days from the day they withdrew from the Sales Contract, unless the Seller proposed to collect the Product themselves. To meet the deadline, it is sufficient to send the Product back before the deadline expires. The Consumer may return the Product to the Seller’s address.

The Consumer’s liability may include, in particular, the inability to resell the Product as a full-value Product, costs of reattaching labels and security elements to the Product, as well as the costs of restoring the Product to a condition allowing its resale in the Online Store, including the costs of specialist examination and costs of removing defects identified as a result of such an examination (to the extent that these defects result from the Consumer’s use of the Product beyond what was necessary to ascertain its nature, characteristics, and functioning).
- The Consumer bears only the direct costs of returning the Product. The Seller may, as part of a promotional campaign, offer to collect the returned Products from the Consumer.
- The right of withdrawal from a distance contract referred to in paragraph 1 (a) or (b) above does not apply to the Consumer in cases specified in the Civil Code, particularly regarding contracts: (1) for the provision of services, if the Seller has fully performed the service with the Consumer’s explicit consent, having been informed before the start of the performance that after the Seller has fulfilled the service, they will lose the right to withdraw from the contract; (2) for the provision of a non-prefabricated item made according to the Consumer’s specifications or serving to satisfy their individualized needs; (3) for the provision of a Product delivered in a sealed package, which cannot be returned for health protection or hygiene reasons if the package has been opened after delivery; (4) for the provision of Products that, by their nature, are inseparably mixed with other items after delivery.
