1. The seller is responsible to the buyer that the goods have no defects upon receipt. In particular, the seller is responsible to the buyer that at the time the buyer took possession of the goods: • the goods have the properties that the parties agreed upon, and if there is no agreement, the goods have such properties that the seller or the manufacturer described or that the buyer expected based on the nature of the goods and the advertisement made by them, • the goods are suitable for the purpose for which the seller indicates they are to be used, or for which goods of this kind are commonly used, • the goods correspond to the quality or performance agreed upon by the parties, and if the quality or performance was determined according to an agreed sample or model, the goods correspond to that sample or model, • the goods are in the appropriate quantity, measure or weight, and the goods comply with legal requirements.
2. The seller has obligations from defective performance at least to the extent that the obligations of the manufacturer for defective performance persist. Otherwise, the buyer is entitled to exercise the right from a defect that occurs in consumer goods within twenty-four months from the time of receipt.
3. If the sold goods, their packaging, instructions attached to the goods, or advertising indicate a period during which the goods can be used, the provisions on quality guarantee shall apply. The seller guarantees that the goods will be capable of being used for the usual purpose for a certain period of time, or that they will retain their usual properties. If the buyer rightly points out a defect in the goods to the seller, the period for exercising rights from defective performance or the warranty period does not run during the period when the buyer cannot use the defective goods.
4. The provisions stated in the previous paragraph of the terms and conditions do not apply to goods sold at a lower price due to a defect for which the lower price was agreed upon, to wear and tear caused by the goods' normal use, to used goods for a defect corresponding to the extent of use or wear and tear that the goods had at the time of receipt by the buyer, or if it follows from the nature of the goods. The buyer is not entitled to the right from defective performance if he knew that the goods had a defect before receiving them or if he caused the defect himself.
5. In case of a defect, the buyer may make a complaint to the seller and demand: • a replacement with new goods, • repair of the goods, • an appropriate discount from the purchase price, • withdrawal from the contract.
6. The buyer has the right to withdraw from the contract: • if the goods have a significant defect, • if he cannot properly use the thing due to repeated occurrence of defects or defects after repair, • in case of a larger number of defects in the goods.
7. The essential thing is a breach of contract that the party breaching the contract knew or should have known about at the time of concluding the contract, and the other party would not have concluded the contract if it had foreseen this breach.
8. In the case of a defect that represents an insignificant breach of contract (regardless of whether it is a removable or irremovable defect), the buyer is entitled to have the defect removed or to a reasonable discount from the purchase price.
9. If a removable defect occurs repeatedly after repair (usually the third complaint for the same defect or the fourth for different defects) or if the goods have a greater number of defects (usually at least three defects at the same time), the buyer has the right to request a discount from the purchase price, exchange the goods, or withdraw from the contract.
10. When making a complaint, the buyer is obliged to inform the seller of the chosen remedy. A change of choice without the consent of the seller is only possible if the buyer requested the repair of a defect that turns out to be irremovable. If the buyer does not choose their right from a material breach of contract in time, they have the same rights as in the case of an insignificant breach of contract.
11. If repair or replacement of the goods is not possible, the buyer may demand a full refund of the purchase price based on withdrawal from the contract.
12. If the seller proves that the buyer knew about the defect of the goods before taking possession of them or caused the defect themselves, the seller is not obliged to satisfy the buyer's claim.
13. The buyer cannot complain about discounted goods for a reason for which the goods are discounted.
14. The seller is obliged to accept the complaint at any branch where the complaint can be accepted, or at the registered office or place of business. The seller is obliged to issue a written confirmation to the buyer of when the buyer exercised their right, what the content of the complaint is, and what method of handling the complaint the buyer requests, as well as confirmation of the date and method of handling the complaint, including confirmation of the repair carried out and the duration thereof, or a written justification for rejecting the complaint.

15. The seller or their authorized employee decides on the complaint immediately, in complex cases within three working days. This period does not include the time necessary to expertly assess the defect based on the type of product or service. The complaint, including the defect correction, must be resolved promptly, at the latest within 30 days of the complaint submission, unless the seller agrees with the buyer on a longer period. The expiration of this period is considered a material breach of the contract and the buyer has the right to withdraw from the purchase contract. The moment of complaint submission is considered to be the moment when the buyer expresses their will (asserts their right to defective performance) to the seller.

16. The seller informs the buyer in writing about the result of the complaint.

17. The buyer is not entitled to the right to defective performance if they knew about the defect before taking over the item, or if they caused the defect themselves.

18. In the case of a legitimate complaint, the buyer has the right to reimbursement of reasonably incurred costs related to the complaint. The buyer can assert this right with the seller within one month after the warranty period has expired; otherwise, a court may not grant it.

19. The buyer has the choice of the method of complaint.

20. The rights and obligations of the contracting parties regarding the right to defective performance are governed by Sections 1914 to 1925, Sections 2099 to 2117, and Sections 2161 to 2174 of the Civil Code and Act No. 634/1992 Coll., on Consumer Protection.
