1. GENERAL PROVISIONS

1.1. This complaint and warranty policy informs customers about the scope, conditions and method of exercising rights from liability for defects, the possibility to withdraw from the contract and about the contractual guarantees resulting from the contract for work concluded between the company and customers who are consumers within the meaning of § 419 of Act no. 89/2012 Coll., of the Civil Code (hereinafter referred to as the "Agreement").

1.2. If the customer enters into a contract for work with the company as part of his business activity or as part of the independent exercise of his profession and thus does not meet the definition of a consumer according to § 419 of Act no. 89/2012 Coll., of the Civil Code, and unless the contract between the company and the customer stipulates otherwise, this complaint and warranty regulation does not apply.

2. RIGHTS FROM DEFECTIVE PERFORMANCE (CLAIM)

2.1. Under the conditions set by law, the company is responsible to the customer that the work is free of defects upon delivery, in particular that the work:

– has the properties agreed by the parties and, in the absence of an agreement, such properties as described by the company or expected by the customer in view of the nature of the work;
– fits the purpose for which the company states its use or for which a work of this kind is usually used;
– corresponds in quality or execution to the contracted sample or original, if the quality or execution was determined

according to the contracted sample or template;
– is in the appropriate quantity, measure or weight; or
– meets the requirements of legal regulations.
2.2. The customer is entitled to assert a right against the company due to a defect (hereinafter referred to as "Complaint") that occurs on the work in

for a period of 24 months from its acceptance.
2.3. The customer has rights from defective performance depending on whether the defect represents a material or non-material breach of the contract. At the same time, such breach of duty is essential, of which the company already knew or had to know when concluding the contract that the other party would not have concluded the contract if it had foreseen this breach; in other cases, it is considered that the violation is not material.
2.4. In the event of a material breach of contract, the customer has the right to:
1. 1) to eliminate the defect by delivering a new work or its part without a defect or by delivering a missing work or
  
  its parts,
2. 2) to remove the defect by repairing the work,
3. 3) for a reasonable discount from the price of the work, or
4. 4) withdraw from the contract.
2.5. The customer is obliged to inform the company which right he has chosen upon notification of the defect, or without undue delay after notification of the defect. The choice made cannot be changed by the customer without the consent of the company; this does not apply if the customer requested repair of a defect that turns out to be irreparable. If the company does not remove the defects within a reasonable period of time, or if it notifies the customer that it will not remove the defects, the customer may demand a reasonable discount from the purchase price instead of removing the defect, or may withdraw from the contract. If the customer does not choose his right in time, he has the same rights as in the case of a minor breach of contract.
2.6. In the event of a minor breach of contract, the customer has the right to:
1. 1) to remove the defect by repairing the work, or
2. 2) for a reasonable discount from the price of the work.
2)7. If the company does not remove the defect in time or refuses to remove the defect, the customer may request a discount from the purchase price, or may withdraw from the contract. The choice made cannot be changed by the customer without the consent of the company.
2) 8. Provisions on liability according to Art. 2.2 do not apply to a defect in the work:
- – for which a lower price was agreed in the contract;
- – for wear and tear of the work caused by its usual use;
- – in the case of a used work, for a defect corresponding to the degree of use or wear and tear the work had when it was handed over to the customer;
- – if it follows from the nature of the matter.
2)9. The customer can only demand the delivery of a new work without defects if this is not unreasonable due to the nature of the defect. If the defect concerns only a part of the work, the customer can only request the replacement of this part; if this is not possible, he can withdraw from the contract. However, if this is disproportionate due to the nature of the defect, especially if the defect can be removed without undue delay, the customer has the right to have the defect removed free of charge.

2)10. In the event of a justified complaint of a defect in the work and the exercise of the right to exchange the work or part of it, the new period for exercising rights from defective performance does not begin with the acceptance of the new work or part of it.

2)11. The company is not responsible for defects in the work that could have been detected by the customer already at handover, but the customer did not complain about them without undue delay.

The complaint will be dealt with without undue delay, no later than 30 calendar days from the date of application of the complaint, unless the customer and the company agree otherwise in writing. After the expiration of this period, the consumer has the same rights as if there had been a material breach of the contract.
The company will issue a written confirmation to the customer, in which it will state when the customer made the complaint, what it contains and how it is handled. After handling the complaint, the company will provide the customer with a confirmation containing the date and method of handling the complaint, including any confirmation of the repair and its duration. The company will deliver these documents to the customer personally or send them by e-mail or registered letter to the customer's address specified in the complaint form or in the contract.
The customer is obliged to ensure the preservation of the work in the condition on the date of discovery of the defect and application of the complaint, until the moment of assessment of the defect of the work by the company (or by a person authorized or authorized by it). However, the customer is obliged to take the necessary measures to prevent further damage to the work after discovering the existence of defects in the work.
The company warns customers that, as a rule, a technical and professional assessment of the claimed defect will be necessary at the place of implementation according to the concluded contract, in order to be able to draw a conclusion about the nature of the claimed defect and the method of its solution. In order to assess the legitimacy of the claim and subsequent evaluation of the claimed defect, the customer is obliged to allow the company or its authorized person access to the place where the work is located on the agreed date and time, and to create appropriate conditions for the assessment of the legitimacy of the claim. If this necessary inspection is not possible within the stated date, the date when the company will start removing the defect may be postponed (this is an extension of the reasonable time for a professional assessment of the defect). In such a case, the company is not delayed in resolving the complaint, as the obstacle arose on the customer's side.
