- Information about goods and prices
- Information about the goods, including the prices of individual goods and their main features, is provided for each individual good in the online store catalog. The prices of the goods are provided including all related fees and costs for returning the goods, if the goods cannot be returned by regular mail due to their nature. The prices of the goods remain valid for the period during which they are displayed in the online store. This provision does not exclude the conclusion of a purchase contract under individually negotiated conditions.
- All presentation of goods placed in the online store catalog is of an informative nature and the seller is not obliged to conclude a purchase contract regarding these goods.
- Information on the costs associated with packaging and delivery of goods is published in the online store.

- by filling out the order form without registration.
- When placing an order, the buyer selects the goods, the number of pieces of goods, the method of payment and delivery.

- 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 ordering.

Notification of acceptance of the order is delivered to the buyer's e-mail address.
- If the Seller cannot meet any of the requirements specified in the order, it will send 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 the Buyer's confirmation of acceptance of this offer to the Seller at his e-mail address specified in these Terms and Conditions.
- All orders accepted by the Seller are binding. The Buyer may cancel the order until the Buyer receives notification of acceptance of the order by the Seller. The Buyer may cancel the order by sending an e-mail to the Seller specified in these Terms and Conditions.
- In the event that there is an obvious technical error on the part of the seller when stating 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. 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 e-mail address.
- If the goods are sent on delivery and have not been collected or paid for by the buyer, this is a violation of Section 2118 of Act No. 89/2012 Coll. In such a case, the buyer will be contacted and is obliged to pay compensation for damages associated with the shipment of the goods.

The futile expiration of this period is considered a material breach of contract and the buyer has the right to withdraw from the purchase contract.
