The Seller shall be required to rectify the defect without undue delay. Instead of having the defect rectified, the Consumer - Buyer shall be entitled to request having the item replaced or, where the defect only concerns a component of the item, to have the component replaced, provided that the Seller does not incur disproportionate costs given the price of the Goods or severity of the defect.
    8. Instead of rectifying the defect, the Seller shall be always entitled to replace the defective item with a non-defective one, subject to not causing any serious difficulties to the Consumer - Buyer.
    9. With a defect that cannot be remedied and prevents the item to be duly used as an item without defect, the Consumer - Buyer shall be entitled to have the item replaced or to withdraw from the contract. The same rights shall apply to the Consumer - Buyer, if they involve remediable defects but where the Consumer - Buyer is not able to duly use the item because of the repeated occurrence of a defect after the repair or because of a higher number of defects. Where those are other irreparable defects, the Consumer - Buyer shall be entitled to a reasonable discount on the price of the item.
    10. The Seller has instructed the Consumer - Buyer about his/her rights under the provision of § 622 of the Civil Code (point 1 of this article) and the rights that emerge to him/her under the provision of § 623 of the Civil Code (point 2 of this article) by publishing this Complaint Procedure on the applicable subpage of the Seller's e-shop and the Consumer - Buyer has had the opportunity to read it before submitting the order.
    11. Based on the Buyer's decision, which rights are asserted by the Buyer under the provisions of § 622 and § 623 of the Civil Code, the Seller or an authorized person shall be required to immediately determine the complaint handling method as per the provision of § 2 (m) of the Consumer Protection Act; in more complex cases within 3 days of the start of the complaint proceedings; in justified cases, particularly where a complex technical assessment of the condition of the Goods is required, no later than 30 days of the start date of the complaint proceedings.

Once the complaint handling period expires, the Consumer shall be entitled to withdraw from the contract or to have the Goods replaced with new Goods. The Seller shall inform the Buyer by e-mail about the end of the complaint proceedings and about the result. At the same time, the complaint protocol shall be delivered to the Buyer along with the Goods.

Regardless of the result of the expert assessment, the Seller may not require the Buyer to pay the costs of the expert goods assessment or other costs associated with the expert goods assessment.
    12. If the Buyer claims a product after 12 months of concluding the purchase contract and the Seller rejects it, the person handling the complaint shall be required to state in the complaint handling document, to whom the Buyer may send the Goods for expert assessment. If the Buyer sends the Goods for expert assessment to the designated entity specified in the complaint handling document, the costs of expert assessment of such Goods, as well as all other related purposefully incurred costs, shall be borne by the Seller, regardless of the result of expert assessment. Where the Buyer proves by expert assessment the Seller's responsibility for the claimed defect of the Goods, the Buyer shall be entitled to claim the Goods again; the period during which the expert assessment is being prepared shall not be included in the warranty period. The Seller shall be required to reimburse the Buyer within 14 days of the date of refiled complaint all the costs incurred for the expert assessment of the Goods, as well as all associated purposefully incurred costs. A refiled complaint cannot be rejected.

    16. If it is not possible to apply for a warranty repair with other entity than the Seller, the Seller shall provide the warranty repair in question. On the day of receiving the complaint, the Seller shall issue to the Buyer a document on the receipt of claimed Goods, in which the Seller shall precisely indicate the defects of the Goods as per the provision of § 18 (5) of the Consumer Protection Act. After handling the complaint, the Seller shall inform the Buyer in a form agreed with the Buyer.

    19. In a situation where the Goods must be sent to the Seller or service center, the Buyer shall make sure that the Goods are packed in a suitable packaging sufficiently protecting the Goods and meeting the requirements for transporting the Goods. In the case of transporting fragile Goods, we recommend marking the shipment with appropriate symbols.
    20. If the claimed Goods are delivered by post or courier (see contacts), the responsible person shall receive the Goods, check the shipment, documentation (invoice, cash register receipt, packaging), the decisive date for the complaint resolution period shall be the date of receipt from the courier or postman.

    26. Where a product includes metering devices (speedometer, thermometer, etc.), these are not certified, their accuracy is not guaranteed and may be affected by, for instance, temperature, worn tires etc. Those are approximate values and the accuracy of these data cannot be the subject of a complaint.
    27. If the Buyer - Consumer is not satisfied with the handling of the complaint by the Seller, or if the Buyer - Consumer turns to the Seller with a request for remedy and is not satisfied with the manner the Seller has handled the Buyer's complaint, or if the Buyer believes that the Seller has violated the Buyer's rights, the Buyer - Consumer shall be entitled to approach the Seller with the request for remedy.

GTC Max Care

General Terms and Conditions of Max Care

  1. The Max Care means extended warranty, repair and servicing of the Goods purchased from the Seller. It is a paid service that can be ordered for a pre-determined fee, its aim being to ensure carefree ownership of the purchased Goods. The fee amount is clearly communicated by email to the Buyer after the purchase. The Buyer is provided with this service free of charge for a specified time period after the purchase, for instance one month (the exact duration of the free period may vary depending on the Goods and the Seller’s then current decision, but it is always clearly stated in the email). The free provision of the service is not conditioned by ordering this service. In the event that the free period is not extended, the Buyer shall have no obligation to pay for its extension. The extension takes place solely on the basis of the Buyer's order, which the Buyer performs via the web interface specified in the email containing the offer, or it is sent to the Buyer by a text message. In no case does this constitute any insurance service and this service is neither offered as such. For this reason, it does not provide any protection to the Buyer in the event of stolen Goods and it can only be provided while the Buyer is in possession of the purchased Goods.
  2. Due to the fact that it is not an insurance service, the Buyer acknowledges that the provision of free repair and service is possible only when the Buyer brings in or ships the purchased Goods along with the proof of purchase and the proof of purchase of the Max Care service. Where the Buyer is no longer in possession of the Goods (for example, due to theft), no services shall be provided to the Buyer. In such case, the Max Care service shall not cease and, for instance if the Goods are found later, it shall be possible to continue to apply for the Max Care service.
  3. The Max Care service can only be purchased during the provided free period after purchasing the new Goods. The Buyer learns about the extension options during the free period via e-mail or text messages received from the Seller.

  4. Max Care shall be terminated by:
    1. Written notice submitted by the Buyer or the Seller within 14 days of the latest activation or extension. In such case, provided that there has been no use of the service, the Seller shall refund the full amount of the service fee to the Buyer's account within 14 days of receiving the written termination notice. The written termination notice may be also submitted by email sent to the contact email address published in the Contact section on the Seller’s website.

    3. Cessation or theft of the Goods, to which the service applies
    4. Provision of replacement Goods in the event of irreparable damage, or in the case of damage, repair of which would be more costly than the provision of comparable Goods

In such case, the Seller shall return the proportional remaining amount of the fee for the Max Care service based on the number of days, for which the service is ordered and paid, in proportion to the number of days remaining until the end of the service validity period
    6. Seller's unilateral withdrawal from the provision of the service. In such case, the Seller shall return the proportional outstanding amount of the fee for Max Care service based on the number of days, for which the service is ordered and paid, in proportion to the number of days remaining until the end of service validity period. The Seller may withdraw from providing the service at any time during the service provision period without giving a reason, for instance where the Seller suspects that the service is being misused by the Buyer, while this withdrawal shall enter into force on the day the written withdrawal notice is sent to the Buyer’s email address used by the Buyer to order the Goods or to extend the Max Care service.
  5. Procedure when claiming the Max Care service:
    1. The Max Care is provided for servicing associated with the damaged Goods that the Buyer requests in connection with the purchased Goods in the form of servicing, and this in the form of free-of-charge provision of these services, including performed work and spare parts used.
    2. When ordering the servicing, the Buyer shall be required to clearly state that the Goods are covered by Max Care, confirm the servicing date and the fact that the Buyer requests repair as part of the Max Care service.
    3. The Seller may confirm the date or propose some other date of servicing based on the Seller's then current free capacities and availability of spare parts, however without undue delay so that the Buyer waits the shortest period possible with respect to the Seller's repair capacities.
    4. The costs of transporting the equipment to and from the Seller’s service shop shall be borne by the Buyer and these costs shall be invoiced to the Buyer after performing the repair.
    5. After repairing the Goods or replacing them with similar Goods, these Goods shall be sent by the Seller to the address specified by the Buyer.
    6. For each individual use of Max Care, the Seller charges a service fee of €50 or 10% of the value of repair, if the total price of repair exceeds €500. The repair value is calculated as the price of spare parts used and then current hourly work rate for customers, specified on the Seller’s website in the Service section. The Buyer shall be required to pay this fee, along with transport costs, to the Seller at the latest at the moment of receiving the Goods.
  6. Definition and terms and conditions of individual services provided with respect to the Goods during the validity period of Max Care:
    1. The repair of a damaged vehicle is free (except for transport costs and fees under point 5(f) of these GTC), regardless of how the damage occurs. The exceptions where the Seller does not provide free repair are described below in these General Terms and Conditions.
    2. The territorial validity is unlimited. However, the costs of transporting the Goods shall be borne fully by the Buyer.
    3. If the Seller's service technician concludes that the repair is no longer possible, or that the repair would be more expensive than similar Goods with similar use, the Seller shall provide the Buyer free of charge with replacement Goods of similar or better parameters than the original Goods. Where the original Goods are covered by statutory warranty period, the Seller shall provide identical rights to the delivered Goods as enjoyed by the Buyer with respect to the original (replaced) Goods. The original (damaged) Goods shall become the property of the Seller and the new (replacement) Goods shall become the property of the Buyer. In such case, the Max Care shall be terminated as well. The assessment whether the replacement Goods are of similar or better parameters shall be at the sole discretion of the Seller. The replacement Goods may come as already used, for instance as a demonstration vehicle. However, it must be used less or comparably to the original Goods. It may exhibit defects corresponding to normal use, but these must not prevent the proper use of the replacement Goods. Such defects may include small scratches and the like. In such case, the use of this service (replacement Goods) shall be subject to a payment of a one-time fee of 10% of the purchase price of the original equipment.
    4. Where the service technician decides that the Goods are to be repaired, the repair shall only apply to damage preventing the proper use of the Goods and shall not cover any other damage. For instance, any cosmetically damaged components shall not be replaced, as such damage does not prevent proper use thereof.
    5. The Seller may decide on repairing the damaged components, or possibly on replacing them with an already used spare part, provided that such spare part is in adequate condition, similar to the condition of the component being replaced, and does not result in poorer safety or preventing the due and full use of the Goods. For instance, instead of a new fender the Seller may use some other fender that has been already used but is in adequate condition. If the decision is made to repair the Goods, such repair may result in deteriorated aesthetic properties (for instance, scratches not being removed) but must provide unchanged functionality and safety.
  7. Exceptions, for which the services under points 6 or 7 shall not be provided in the case of Max Care:
    1. Loss or theft of the Goods, or parts thereof.

    2. Any damage not preventing the Goods to be used duly and fully, such as scratches or minor damage.

However, where the Seller decides not to provide services for reasons listed in point 7, the Buyer waives the right to challenge this decision in any manner and acknowledges that it shall be at the sole decision of the Seller's service technician. If, however, the Buyer does not agree with the technician's decision, the Buyer shall be entitled to ask the Seller for re-assessment by another technician, or possibly they may agree on a discount on the necessary work, but this too shall be under the exclusive competence of the Seller.

  13. Max Care is provided free of charge for the initial trial period to all Buyers whose goods are on the list of goods, for which the Seller offers this service. The Buyer is usually informed about the Max Care activation by e-mail or text message and the length of the free period is always clearly communicated. During this free trial period, the service is provided under the same terms and conditions as the paid Max Care service, except for the refund option within 14 days, as it is provided free of charge. The free trial period shall end automatically on the specified date, unless the Buyer places an order for the next paid period. The Buyer shall learn the exact pricing terms in the email and text message containing the offer for Max Care extension. This offer shall be custom-made for each Buyer. If the Buyer chooses not to activate the service extension, this service shall expire and it shall not be possible to activate it later. The activation of the paid service is entirely voluntary at the Buyer's discretion and the existence of a free trial period does not imply any obligation to renew it. Such renewal is not automatic and requires the Buyer’s order and consent.
  14. If the Buyer decides to extend the Max Care service, whether from its unpaid trial version or by extending the already paid service, this extension takes place on the Seller's website on the basis of the received email or text message containing the offer for further extension. The exception being the situation where the Buyer opted during the previous renewal for the so-called repeated (recurring) payments in the form of automatic subscription. When renewing the Max Care service, the Buyer may choose from several renewal options depending on the chosen period (e.g., monthly, annually, semi-annually etc.) and between two payment methods: one-time or automatic recurring (repeated) payments in the form of subscription. In case of one-time payment, the Buyer pays for the selected period by payment card. Before the end of the subscription period, the Buyer shall be once again notified of the approaching end of the subscription period and given options to extend Max Care. If the recurring payment method is activated, prior to debiting the fee for the next selected period, the Buyer shall receive an email notification of the fee to be debited soon, and this at least three days prior to the date the fee is debited from the Buyer's payment card. The Buyer may cancel automatic renewals and repeated (recurring) payments at any time during the term of Max Care service. This can be done by using any Max Care link provided in the received emails offering the Max Care service or in the email notifying the Buyer of the upcoming payment. The cancellation of recurring payments is then very easy to perform by a single click cancelling the automatic renewal of the Max Care service.
  15. The paid Max Care service can be cancelled at any time, including turning off the recurring (repeated) payments. The Buyer only needs to click on the link in any email or text message received from the Seller in connection with Max Care. Subsequently, the Buyer is able to turn off the recurrence (automatic renewal) or deactivate Max Care on the Seller's website on a self-service basis. If the deactivation of Max Care takes place within 14 days of its renewal, the Seller shall return the aliquot (remaining) amount to the Buyer to the account specified by the Buyer. If the Buyer prefers other form of Max Care cancellation, the Buyer may do so by contacting the Seller's customer service via any contact channel, for instance by email or phone. The Seller's contact details are published on the Seller’s website in the Contact section, and are also available by clicking this link.
