1.3.      The provisions of these GTC constitute an integral part of the purchase contract. Derogations in the purchase contract prevail over the provisions of these GTC.

1.4.      These GTC and the purchase contract are entered into in the Czech language. 

1.5.      If the subject of the sale is a third-party service not provided by the Seller acting as the organiser, such as the booking of accommodation provided by a third party, meal vouchers, organisational services, and the arrangement of other conditions for participation in a sports or cultural event organised and hosted by a third party, the Seller, as the Operator of the E-shop, only provides the Buyer with the possibility to purchase the third-party services listed in the E-shop via a payment gateway solution; the E-shop Operator assumes no liability whatsoever for the fulfilment of the obligations of third parties – providers of accompanying services (accommodation, camping sites, parking, storage facilities, catering services, sanitary facilities, security, etc.). 

 

2.     Information on Products and Pricing

2.1.      Information on products, services, or other offerings that are the subject of the sale, including the pricing of each product and a description of its main characteristics, is provided online for each product, service, and other offering in the E-shop’s catalogue. Product prices are listed inclusive of value added tax, all related fees, and the cost of returning the products if they cannot, by their nature, be returned via the normal postal route. Product prices remain valid for as long as they are displayed in the E-shop. This provision does not preclude the negotiation of a purchase contract under individually agreed terms.

2.2.      All product presentations contained in the E-shop’s catalogue are for informational purposes only; the Seller is under no obligation to enter into a purchase contract in respect of such products or services. 

2.3.      Information on the costs associated with the packaging and delivery of products is published in the E-shop. Information presented in the E-shop on the costs associated with the packaging and delivery of products applies only to cases where the products are delivered within the Czech Republic.

2.4.      Any discounts offered on the purchase price of a product cannot be mutually combined, unless otherwise agreed between the Seller and the Buyer. 

 

3.     Purchase Order and Purchase Contract

3.1.      The costs incurred by the Buyer when using remote means of communication in connection with the conclusion of the purchase contract (internet connection costs, telephone call costs, payment costs) are borne by the Buyer. 

3.2.      The Buyer may place orders for products in the following ways:

3.2.1.     via a customer account, if the Buyer has previously registered with the E-shop; 

3.2.2.     by filling in the online order form without having to register.  

3.3.      When placing an order, the Buyer selects the product, the number of items, the payment method, and the method of delivery (shipping).

3.4.      Prior to sending the order, the Buyer is given the opportunity to check and change the details entered in the order. The Buyer sends the order to the Seller via the “Complete registration here” button. The information provided in the order is assumed by the Seller to be correct. For an order to be valid, the Buyer must fill in all mandatory details in the order form and confirm that he/she has read these GTC.

3.5.      Upon receipt of the order, the Seller promptly sends a confirmation email of receipt of the order to the email address provided by the Buyer when placing the order. This confirmation is an automatic email and does not mean that a contract has been entered into. The confirmation is accompanied by the Seller’s current GTC. A purchase contract is not concluded until the Seller has accepted the order. Notification of the Seller’s acceptance of the order is delivered to the Buyer’s email address.  

3.6.      If any of the requirements specified in an order cannot be met, the Seller sends a revised offer to the Buyer’s email address. The revised offer is deemed to be a new draft purchase contract; the purchase contract is then concluded if the Buyer confirms the acceptance of this offer to the Seller at the email address provided in these GTC. 

3.7.      All orders accepted by the Seller are binding. The Buyer may cancel an order until notification of the Seller’s acceptance of the order is delivered to the Buyer. The Buyer may also cancel an order by calling the phone number or sending an email to the Seller’s email address indicated for the specific facility where the Buyer is placing the order.

3.8.      If an obvious technical error has occurred on the part of the Seller when listing the price of a product in the E-shop or in the course of the ordering process, the Seller is not obliged to deliver such product to the Buyer for this manifestly erroneous price even if the Buyer has been sent an automatic confirmation of receipt of the order in accordance with these GTC. An obvious technical error is also considered to be a price that is disproportionately low compared to the normal pricing of the product in question. The Seller notifies the Buyer of the error without undue delay and sends a revised offer to the Buyer’s email address. The revised offer is deemed to be a new draft purchase contract; the purchase contract is then concluded if the Buyer sends confirmation of acceptance to the Seller’s email address.

7.     Rights Arising from Defects

7.1.      The Seller is liable to the Buyer for the product being free from defects upon receipt. In particular, the Seller shall be liable to the Buyer for the fact that, at the time the Buyer takes possession of the product: 

7.1.1.     the product has the characteristics agreed between the parties and, in the absence of such agreement, the product has the characteristics described by the Seller or the manufacturer or expected by the Buyer in view of the nature of the product and on the basis of the advertising carried out by them, and the product is fit for the purpose for which the Seller states it is used or for which products of that kind are customarily used;

7.1.2.     the product is consistent in quality or workmanship with the specimen or model agreed upon, if the quality or workmanship is determined by reference to such specimen or model;

7.1.3.     the product is of the corresponding quantity, measure, or weight; and

7.1.4.     the product complies with statutory requirements.

7.2.      The Seller has obligations arising from defects at least to the extent that the manufacturer’s obligations arising from defects persist. The Buyer is otherwise entitled to exercise the right to claim for a defect occurring in a consumer product within twenty-four months of taking possession of that product. 

7.3.      If the time period for which the product may be used is indicated on the product being sold, on its packaging, in the instructions accompanying the product, or in advertising in accordance with other legislation, the provisions regarding the quality guarantee apply. With the quality guarantee, the Seller undertakes that the product will be fit for its normal purpose or that it will retain its normal properties for a certain period of time. If the Buyer rightfully complains to the Seller about a defect in the product, the time limit for exercising rights arising from defects and the guarantee period are interrupted for the time during which the Buyer is unable to use the defective product. 

7.4.      The provisions set out in the preceding paragraph of these GTC do not apply to products sold at a lower price due to a defect for which the lower price was agreed, due to the wear and tear of products caused by their normal use, in the case of second-hand goods due to a defect consistent with the level of use or wear and tear of products upon receipt by the Buyer, or if this results from the nature of the products. The Buyer has no right arising from defects if the Buyer knows before taking possession of the product that the product is defective or if the Buyer caused the defect him/herself.

7.5.      In the event of a defect, the Buyer may submit a claim to the Seller and demand:

7.5.1.     an exchange for a new product;

7.5.2.     the repair of the product;

7.5.3.     a reasonable discount on the purchase price; 

7.5.4.     withdrawal from the contract.

7.6.      The Buyer has the right to withdraw from the contract if: 

7.6.1.     the product has a material defect; 

7.6.2.     the Buyer is unable to use the item properly due to the recurrence of a defect or defects following repair; 

7.6.3.     the product has a large number of defects.

7.7.      A breach of contract is a material breach if the breaching party knew or must have known that the other party would not have entered into the contract had it foreseen that breach. 

7.8.      Where a defect constitutes a minor breach of contract (irrespective of whether or not the defect is remediable), the buyer is entitled to have the defect remedied or to receive a reasonable discount on the purchase price. 

7.9.      If a remediable defect occurs repeatedly after a repair (usually the third claim for the same defect or the fourth for different defects) or if the product exhibits a large number of defects (usually at least three defects at once), the Buyer has the right to claim: (i) a discount on the purchase price; (ii) the exchange of the product; or (iii) withdrawal from the contract.

7.10.   When making a claim, the Buyer is obliged to notify the Seller of the option chosen. A change of such option without the Seller’s consent is possible only if the Buyer has requested the repair of a defect that proves to be irremediable. If the Buyer fails to exercise his/her right arising from a material breach of contract in time, the Buyer has the same rights as in the case of a minor breach of contract. 

7.11.   If a product repair or exchange is not possible, the Buyer may demand a full refund of the purchase price as a result of withdrawing from the contract. 

7.12.   If the Seller proves that the Buyer knew about the product defect prior to taking possession or caused such defect him/herself, the Seller is under no obligation to accept the Buyer’s claim. 

7.13.   The Buyer cannot file a claim on a discounted product for the reason for which the product has been discounted.

7.14.   The Seller is obliged to accept a claim in the manner provided for in these GTC. The Seller is obliged to issue the Buyer with written confirmation of when the Buyer exercised the right, what the content of the claim is, and what method of claim settlement the Buyer is seeking, and confirmation of the date and method of claim settlement, including confirmation of the repair and the duration of the repair, or written justification for the rejection of the claim.

7.15.   The Seller or a staff member authorised by the Seller takes a decision on the claim immediately, or within three working days in complex cases. The reasonable time – depending on the type of product or service – needed for a professional assessment of the defect is not included in that time limit. A claim, including the remediation of the defect, must be settled without undue delay, and in any event within 30 days of the date on which the claim is made, unless the Seller and the Buyer agree on a longer period. Expiry of this time limit without result is considered to be a material breach of contract entitling the Buyer to withdraw from the purchase contract. The moment a claim is made is considered to be the moment the Buyer’s expression of will (i.e. the exercise of the right arising from defects) reaches the Seller.

7.16.   The outcome of the claim is notified to the Buyer in writing by the Seller. 

7.17.   The Buyer has no right arising from defects if the Buyer knows before taking possession of the item that it is defective or if the Buyer caused the defect him/herself.

7.18.   If a claim is justified, the Buyer is entitled to compensation for costs efficiently incurred in connection with the claim. The Buyer may exercise this right with the Seller within one month of expiry of the guarantee period, otherwise it may be denied by a court.

7.19.   The method used to file a claim is at the Buyer’s discretion.

7.20.   The parties’ rights and obligations with respect to rights arising from defects are governed by Sections 1914 to 1925, 2099 to 2117, and 2161 to 2174 of the Civil Code and by Act No 634/1992 on consumer protection.

7.21.   Other rights and obligations of the parties related to the Seller’s liability for defects are governed by the Seller’s Claims Procedure.

 

8.     Service

8.1.      The parties may serve any and all written correspondence on each other by electronic mail. 

8.2.      The Buyer serves correspondence on the Seller at the email address indicated in these GTC. The Seller serves correspondence on the Buyer at the email address indicated in the Buyer’s customer account or in the order. 

 

9.     Personal Data

9.1.      All information provided by the Buyer when working with the Seller is confidential and will be treated as such. Unless the Buyer gives the Seller written permission, the Seller will not use the Buyer’s data in any way other than for the purposes of contractual performance, with the exception of the Buyer’s email address, to which commercial communications may be sent, as this procedure is permitted by law, unless expressly refused. Such communications may relate only to similar or related products and the Buyer may unsubscribe from them at any time by a simple action (sending a letter or email, or clicking on a link in a commercial communication). The email address will be retained for this purpose for a period of three years from the conclusion of the last contract between the parties.

9.2.      More detailed data protection information can be found in the Privacy Policy.
