Definition of terms

The buyer is a consumer or entrepreneur.

A consumer buyer, or just a consumer, is a person who, unlike the seller, does not act within the framework of his business activity or in the independent performance of his profession when concluding and fulfilling the contract.

A buyer who is not a consumer is an entrepreneur. An entrepreneur is also considered to be any person who concludes contracts related to his own business, production or similar activity or in the independent performance of his profession, or a person who acts on behalf of or on behalf of an entrepreneur.

An offer is a legal act leading to the conclusion of a contract if it contains the essential elements of the contract so that the contract can be concluded by its simple and unconditional acceptance, and if it implies the will of the proposer to be bound by the contract if the offer is accepted.

It is considered that a proposal to deliver goods or provide a service at a specified price made in the course of business activity by advertising, in a catalog or by displaying goods is an offer subject to the exhaustion of stocks or the loss of the entrepreneur’s ability to perform.

Payment terms

Order and conclusion of purchase contract

The costs incurred by the buyer when using means of communication at a distance in connection with the conclusion of the purchase contract (costs of Internet connection, costs of telephone calls) are paid by the buyer himself.

The buyer orders the goods in the following ways:

• through your customer account, if you have previously registered in the online store,

• by filling out the order form without registration.

When placing an order, the buyer selects the goods, the number of goods, the method of payment and delivery.

Before sending the order, the buyer is allowed to check and change the data he entered in the order. The buyer sends the order to the seller by clicking the SEND ORDER button; the data given in the order are considered correct by the seller. The condition for the validity of the order is the filling in of all mandatory data in the order form and confirmation by the buyer that he has become familiar with these terms and conditions.

Immediately after receiving the order, the seller will send the buyer a confirmation of receipt of the order to the e-mail address that the buyer entered when placing the order. This confirmation is automatic and does not constitute a contract. The seller’s current terms and conditions are attached to the confirmation. The purchase contract is concluded only after the order has been accepted by the seller. Notification of order acceptance is delivered to the buyer’s email address.

If the seller cannot fulfill any of the requirements stated in the order, he will send the buyer an amended offer to his email address. The amended offer is considered a new draft of the purchase contract, and the purchase contract is concluded in such a case by the buyer’s confirmation of acceptance of this offer to the seller at his email address specified in these terms and conditions.

All orders accepted by the seller are binding. All orders are delivered in the Czech Republic within 2-3 working days. They are delivered abroad according to the selected transport method within 3-7 working days. The buyer can cancel the order until the buyer receives a notice of acceptance of the order by the seller. The buyer can cancel the order by phone at the seller’s phone number or email listed in these terms and conditions.

In the event that there was an obvious technical error on the part of the seller when indicating the price of the goods in the online store, or during the ordering process, the seller is not obliged to deliver the goods to the buyer at this obviously incorrect price, even if the buyer was sent an automatic confirmation of receipt of the order according to these terms and conditions. The seller informs the buyer of the error without undue delay and sends the buyer an amended offer to his e-mail address.

The amended offer is considered a new draft of the purchase contract, and the purchase contract is concluded in such a case by confirmation of acceptance by the buyer to the seller’s email address.

Proof of sales

According to Act no. 112/2016 Coll., on the registration of sales, as amended (hereinafter referred to as the “Act on the registration of sales”), the seller is obliged to issue a receipt to the buyer. At the same time, he is obliged to register the received sales with the tax administrator online; in the event of a technical failure, then within 48 hours at the latest.

The seller issues receipts in accordance with the Sales Registration Act in electronic form sent by e-mail or in paper form depending on the chosen payment method and method of transport.

Customer account

Based on the buyer’s registration in the online store, the buyer can access his customer account. The buyer can order goods from his customer account. The buyer can also order goods without registration.

When registering for a customer account and when ordering goods, the buyer is obliged to enter all data correctly and truthfully. The buyer is obliged to update the data specified in the user account in case of any change. The data provided by the buyer in the customer account and when ordering goods are considered correct by the seller.

Access to the customer account is secured by a username and password. The buyer is obliged to maintain confidentiality regarding the information necessary to access his customer account. The seller is not responsible for any misuse of the customer account by third parties.

The buyer is not authorized to allow the use of the customer account by third parties.

The seller can cancel the user account, especially if the buyer no longer uses his user account, or if the buyer violates his obligations under the purchase contract and these terms and conditions.

The buyer acknowledges that the user account may not be available continuously, especially with regard to the necessary maintenance of the seller’s hardware and software equipment, or necessary maintenance of hardware and software equipment of third parties.

Right to withdraw from the contract

If the purchase contract is concluded using means of remote communication (in the online store), the consumer has the right to withdraw from the contract without giving a reason within 14 days of receiving the goods, in accordance with the provisions of § 1829, paragraph 1 of the Commercial Code.

Withdrawal from the purchase contract must be sent to the seller within the period specified in the previous paragraph, and the consumer will state in it that he is withdrawing from the contract, ideally with the order number, the date of purchase and, if applicable, the account number for the refund.

To withdraw from the purchase contract, the consumer can also use the sample form provided by the seller.

Withdrawal from the purchase contract can be sent by the consumer to, among other things, the address of the seller’s registered office or place of business , to an email (info@uniquetherapeutics.com) or to the seller’s e-mail address.

In the event that the consumer withdraws from the contract according to the preceding paragraphs, the seller will return the funds received from the consumer (except for the amount representing additional costs for the delivery of the goods incurred as a result of the method of delivery of the goods chosen by the consumer, which is different from the cheapest method of standard delivery of the goods offered by the seller) to 14 days from the withdrawal from the purchase contract by the consumer, in the same way as the seller accepted them from the consumer, unless the consumer specifies otherwise. The seller is also entitled to return the performance provided by the consumer when the goods are returned by the consumer or in another way, if the consumer agrees and no additional costs are incurred by the consumer.

If the consumer withdraws from the purchase contract, the seller is not obliged to return the received funds to the consumer before the consumer returns the goods to him or proves that he has sent the goods to the seller.

However, the provisions of the OZ on withdrawal from the contract within a period of 14 days according to § 1829 paragraph 1 of the OZ cannot be understood as the possibility of free loan of goods. In the case of exercising the right to withdraw from the contract within 14 days of taking over the goods according to § 1829, paragraph 1 of the Civil Code, the consumer must hand over to the seller everything that he obtained on the basis of the contract in question, including e.g. gifts. If this is no longer possible (e.g. the goods have been destroyed or consumed in the meantime), the consumer must provide monetary compensation for what can no longer be issued.

If the returned goods are partially damaged, the seller can assert the right to compensation for damages against the consumer and offset his claim against the returned purchase price and thus return the reduced purchase price to the consumer in accordance with § 1833 of the Civil Code.

The consumer does not have the right to withdraw from the contract in the cases specified in § 1837 of the Civil Code.

The seller is entitled to withdraw from the purchase contract due to the stock being sold out, the unavailability of the goods, or when the manufacturer, importer or supplier of the goods has stopped the production or importation of the goods. The seller immediately informs the buyer via the e-mail address specified in the order and returns within 14 days from the notification of withdrawal from the purchase contract all funds, including delivery costs, that he received from him on the basis of the contract, in the same way, or in a way specified by the buyer.

Rights and obligations from defective performance

Quality upon receipt

If, at the time when the buyer took over the item, the received goods have deficiencies (e.g. do not have the agreed or legitimately expected properties, are not suitable for the usual or agreed purpose, are not complete, do not correspond to their quantity, measure, weight, or quality do not correspond to other legal, contractual or including pre-contractual parameters), these are defects in the goods for which the seller is responsible.

The buyer consumer can apply to the seller, no later than two years after taking over the goods, according to his request, a claim for free removal of the defect or for a reasonable discount on the price; if it is not disproportionate to the nature of the defect (especially if the defect cannot be removed without unnecessary delay), a demand for the delivery of a new item without defects or a new component without defects can be applied, if the defect concerns only this component.

If the repair or replacement of the goods is not possible, based on withdrawal from the contract, the purchasing consumer may request a full refund of the purchase price.

If a defect becomes apparent within six months of receipt of the goods by the buyer, the item is deemed to have been defective upon receipt.

The seller is not obliged to comply with the claim of the buyer-consumer if he proves that the buyer-consumer knew about the defect of the goods before taking over or caused it himself.

In the case of sold used goods, the seller is not responsible for defects corresponding to the degree of previous use or wear. For items sold at a lower price, the seller is not responsible for the defect for which the lower price was negotiated. Instead of the right to exchange, the purchasing consumer has the right to a reasonable discount in these cases.

Legal rights from defects

The purchasing consumer is entitled to exercise the right from a defect that occurs in the consumer goods within twenty-four months of receipt

The purchasing entrepreneur is entitled to exercise the right from a defect that the item had when the risk of damage passed to the buyer, even if it becomes apparent only later. The right of the buyer entrepreneur is also established by a defect that arose later, which the seller caused by breaching his obligation.

The buyer is obliged to notify the seller of the defect without undue delay after he could have discovered it during a timely inspection and sufficient care.

Within this period, the buyer-consumer is entitled to file a claim and, at his option, demand for a defect that constitutes a material breach of the contract (regardless of whether the defect is removable or non-removable):

  • removing a defect by delivering a new item without a defect or by supplying a missing item;
  • free removal of the defect by repair;
  • a reasonable discount from the purchase price,
  • refund of the purchase price on the basis of withdrawal from the contract

A material breach of contract is one which the breaching party already knew or had to know at the time of concluding the contract that the other party would not have concluded the contract if it had foreseen this breach.

In the case of a defect that means an insignificant breach of the contract (regardless of whether the defect is removable or non-removable), the buyer-consumer is entitled to the removal of the defect or a reasonable discount from the purchase price.

If a removable defect has occurred repeatedly after repair (the third complaint for the same defect or the fourth for different defects) or the goods have a greater number of defects (at least three defects at the same time), the purchasing consumer can exercise the right to a discount on the purchase price, exchange of goods or withdraw from contracts.

The seller is not responsible for defects resulting from normal wear and tear or failure to follow the instructions for use.

Return conditions

Complaint processing

(more detailed information can be found in the Complaints Procedure section)

The buyer is obliged to file a claim with the seller or the person designated for repair without undue delay after discovering the deficiency. If he does so in writing or electronically, he should state his contact details, a description of the defect and a request for the method of handling the complaint.

Upon notification of a defect, or without undue delay after notification of a defect, the buyer is obliged to inform the seller of the right (method of settlement of the complaint) he has chosen.

A change of choice without the consent of the seller is possible only if the buyer requested the repair of a defect that turns out to be irreparable.

If the buyer does not choose his right from a material breach of contract in time, he has the same rights as in case of a non-material breach of contract.

The buyer is obliged to prove the purchase of the goods (preferably with a proof of purchase). The deadline for processing a complaint starts from the handover/delivery of the goods to the seller or to the place intended for repair. The goods should be packed in suitable packaging during transport to avoid damage, they should be clean and complete.

The seller is obliged to make a decision on the claim without delay, within three working days at the latest, or on the fact that a professional assessment is required for the decision. Information about the need for a professional assessment will be communicated to the buyer within this period. The seller will handle the consumer buyer’s complaint, including the removal of the defect, without undue delay, no later than 30 days after its application, unless a longer period is agreed upon in writing with the consumer buyer. After the expiration of this period, the buyer-consumer has the same rights as if there had been a material breach of the contract.

If the seller refuses to remove the item’s defect, the buyer-consumer can demand a reasonable price discount or withdraw from the contract.

The warranty period is extended by the time from the application of the complaint until its settlement or until the time when the buyer was obliged to pick up the item.

The seller undertakes to inform the buyer about the settlement of the complaint by e-mail or SMS.

In the case of a justified complaint, the buyer is entitled to reimbursement of the costs incurred.
