  1. Withdrawal from Contract – Applies only to Consumers

If a contract between the Seller and the Consumer is concluded through a means of distance communication (for the purposes hereof, it shall mean namely via Internet, email or telephone communication), the Consumer may pursuant to Section 1829 of the Civil Code, withdraw from the purchase contract without giving grounds within 14 days from the takeover of the goods, or from the date on which the last supply of goods are taken over if several kinds of goods or the supply of several parts or items have been ordered in one order. However, within the meaning of Section 1837 of the Civil Code, the Consumer may not withdraw from a contract:

for the provision of services if they were performed with his prior express consent before the end of the time limit for withdrawal and the entrepreneur informed the Consumer before concluding the contract that he shall thereby lose the right of withdrawal;

for the supply of goods or a service whose price depends on fluctuations of the financial market which are beyond the control of the entrepreneur and which may occur during the time limit for withdrawal;

for the supply of alcoholic beverages which can only be supplied after thirty days and whose price depends on fluctuations of the financial market which are beyond the control of the entrepreneur;

for the supply of goods which were customised or personalised;

for the supply of goods subject to rapid decay, as well as goods which were irreversibly mixed with other goods after supply;

for repair or maintenance work carried out at the place designated by the Consumer at his request; however, this does not apply in the case of subsequent unsolicited repairs or supply of unsolicited spare parts;

for the supply of sealed goods which were unsealed after supply by the Consumer and which are not suitable for return due to hygiene reasons;

for the supply of audio or video recordings or computer software whose original seal was unsealed after supply;

for the supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium if it was supplied with the prior express consent of the consumer before the time limit for withdrawal and the entrepreneur informed the Consumer before concluding the contract that he shall thereby lose his right of withdrawal.

We recommend to submit a notice of withdrawal from the purchase contract in writing. A notice of withdrawal must be provably sent to the Seller within 14 days from the date of:

the goods takeover, or

takeover of the last supply of goods if several kinds of goods or the supply of several parts or items have been ordered in one order.

A notice of withdrawal shall be sent to the Seller’s email address info@plc-industrial.com.

The Consumer shall send or deliver to the Seller in person without undue delay, however, no later than within 14 days from the date of the withdrawal from the purchase contract, the

The Seller shall return to the Consumer all funds received from the Buyer under the purchase contract and in the same manner in which they were received within 14 days from the notice of withdrawal. The Seller may only return to the Consumer the funds received in a different manner if the Buyer agrees and if no other expenses are incurred by the Buyer in connection therewith. Should the Consumer withdraw from the purchase contract, the Seller is not obliged to return the received funds to the Buyer before the Buyer returns the goods or demonstrates that the goods have already been sent to the Seller.

The Consumer is liable to an entrepreneur only for the reduction in the value of goods caused by the handling of the goods in a manner other than that which is necessary with regard to its nature and properties.

Due to the above ground, should the Consumer withdraw from the purchase contract, the Seller strictly recommends to the Consumer to return the goods undamaged, with no signs of wear or consumption and in original packaging.

The Consumer shall send or otherwise deliver the returned goods to the Seller’s address. In case of withdrawal from the purchase contract by the Consumer, the Consumer shall bear the cost of return of the goods and cost associated with the return of the goods to the Seller even if the goods cannot, due to its nature, be returned using the standard mailing service. If the goods was used or partially worn, or partially consumed, the Seller shall calculate decrease in the value of the goods, which the Seller shall subsequently claim from the Consumer.

If the Consumer receives from the Seller together with the shipment of the ordered goods a free gift on the purchase of the goods and the Consumer subsequently withdraws from the purchase contract, the subject-matter of which was delivery of such goods, the Consumer shall return to the Seller also the gift together with such goods. If the Consumer fails to do so, he shall pay to the Seller the purchase price of such gift.

The Seller is entitled to unilaterally offset a claim for compensation for damages caused to the goods against the Buyer’s claim to a refund of the purchase price.

  1. Liability for Defects – Applies only to Consumers

The Seller shall be liable to the Consumer that the sold goods have no defects upon its takeover. The Seller is particularly liable to the Buyer for ensuring that, at the moment of takeover by the Buyer,

the goods have the properties agreed upon between the parties, and in the absence of such agreement, the properties, which the Seller or the manufacturer described or which the Consumer expected with regard to the nature of the goods, and based on advertising made by them,

the goods are suitable for the purpose stated by the Seller, or for the purposes this type of goods are normally used for,

the goods quality or design comply with a sample or model, providing that the quality or design was determined based on an agreed sample or model, 

the goods are of corresponding quantity, scope or weight and

the goods meet the requirements of legal regulations.

The state in which the goods are offered (new, renovated, used, repaired) is specified with each goods, as well as the warranty – liability for defects – period granted by the Seller for the respective goods. If the Consumer asks, the Seller shall confirm in writing the scope and duration of the Seller’s obligations in the event of defective performance. If it is necessary, the Seller shall explain in such confirmation, in an intelligible manner, the content, scope, conditions and duration of his liability and the manner in which the rights arising from his liability can be exercised. The Seller shall further specify in the confirmation that the Consumer’s other rights pertaining to the purchase of the goods shall not be affected. Unless prevented by nature of the goods, the confirmation on the rights from defective performance may be replaced by a receipt for the goods purchase containing the above particulars.

The Buyer may exercise rights from defects that occur with regard to the consumer goods within twenty-four months from the goods acceptance. As regards goods sold at a reduced price, the Consumer shall not have rights from defects that constitute the reason for the price reduction.

Pursuant to Act No. 89/2012 Coll., the Civil Code, the Consumer shall no longer be entitled to 24-month warranty for the goods. The Seller, however, provides quality warranty for the goods, when expressly stated, the length of which is provided for the respective goods in the product catalogue. This period shall be extended by the duration of the complaint procedure. The warranty period shall commence upon the thing handover to the Consumer; if the thing was shipped as specified in the contract, the warranty period shall commence upon delivery of the thing to the place of destination. If the purchased thing is to be put commissioned by a person other than the Seller, the warranty period shall commence from the date when the thing is commissioned, if the Consumer ordered the commissioning no later than within three weeks from the takeover of the thing and provided assistance in the performance of the service properly and in due time.

The Consumer shall have the following rights arising from liability for defects or warranty:

If the purchased goods is not delivered free of defects, the Consumer may request delivery of a new thing that is free of defects, providing that such requirement is not disproportionate to the nature of the defect, and providing that if only a part of the thing is defective, the Consumer may only request replacement of the defective part. If the delivery of a new thing, or its part, is impossible, the Consumer may withdraw from the contract. However, if this would be unreasonable in view of the nature of the defect, in particular, if the defect can be removed without undue delay, the Consumer shall be entitled to removal of the defect free of charge.

The Consumer shall also be entitled to delivery of a new thing, or replacement of a part, even if the defect can be removed, if the the Consumer cannot properly use the thing due to repeated occurrence of defects after a repair or due to multiple defects. In such case, the Consumer shall also be entitled to withdraw from the contract.

If the Consumer does not withdraw from the contract or does not exercise the right to receive a new thing free from defects, to have a part of the thing replaced or repaired, Consumer may claim a reasonable discount. The Consumer shall also be entitled to a reasonable discount if the Seller cannot deliver a new thing free from defects, replace a part of the thing or repair it, as well as if the Seller does not make the remedy within a reasonable time-limit or if the making of the remedy would cause considerable inconvenience to the Consumer.
