6. When the User places an order, it is considered a binding offer for the buyer. The User's order shall be considered an e-Store purchase offer. The email confirming that the order has been received shall not be considered the final acceptance of the order by KronoSHOP. As a seller, KronoSHOP may accept this offer by sending a notice to the buyer, stating that the goods are ready for despatch. This is considered the final order confirmation by KronoSHOP.

7. The remote purchase contract is considered executed from the moment the User receives an email by KronoSHOP, notifying the User that the ordered goods are ready for despatch.

8. KronoSHOP may, at any time prior to the contract's execution, refuse to deliver the goods ordered. The User shall be reimbursed with the full order amount as specified in §7 and in accordance with the return policy set forth in these General Terms and Conditions.

§ 4 Placing an Order

9. Placing an order and executing a remote purchase contract from the KronoSHOP e-Store may be done by any person over the age of 18 using the website. Orders may be placed both by registered and unregistered users.

10. The User agrees and declares that they will provide correct, accurate, current and complete information when filling out their details in the process of placing an order.

11. Should the User provide incorrect, inaccurate, outdated or incomplete information in the process of placing an order, KronoSHOP may: 

- ask the User to correct and/or add to the information to make it respectively correct, accurate, current, or complete; or           

- refuse delivering the ordered goods to the User.

KronoSHOP shall not be held liable for incorrect and/or incomplete orders resulting from the details provided by the User. KronoSHOP shall not be held liable for undelivered orders or other unfulfilled obligations resulting from incorrect, inaccurate, outdated and/or incomplete details, and any possible re-sending of these goods shall be at the expense of the User.

12. The User may order any goods listed on the website. When placing an order, the User may select the type and quantity of the goods, the delivery method and deadline, depending on the options offered by the website.

13. There may be limitations to the quantity of goods when purchasing large quantities (e.g. samples). In view of the nature of the goods offered on the website, there minimal order quantities have been introduced for certain items (e.g. the minimal order quantity for laminated flooring is one pack).

14. KronoSHOP shall provide information on the goods offered at the e-Store, including the item's basic specifications, price, transport and delivery costs, and any additional information aimed at supporting the User in making an informed choice during their purchase. KronoSHOP shall not be held liable for inaccuracies in the item description that are not related to its basic specifications, and does not claim that the additional information is comprehensive.  All statutorily required information applicable to any product offered in the e-Store, as well as any additional information is available on the website. In compliance with the green policy adopted by KronoSHOP it is available online and will not be additionally attached to the goods upon delivery.

§ 5 Prices and Payment Terms

15. The User explicitly declares that they have familiarized themselves with the provision stating that any e-Store and website order incurs a payment obligation for the User. The prices are listed in EUR and are final, and shall include VAT, but exclude any costs associated with transporting and delivering the order to the User's designated address. The delivery cost is calculated separately and is not included in the specific item price listed in the e-Store.

16. KronoSHOP may change the prices listed on the website at its own discretion, at any time and with no obligation for providing prior notice to the Users. The User shall be obliged to pay the price listed on the website at the time of placing the order, regardless of whether it is higher or lower than the updated price.  This information is an integral part to the contract and may only be amended with the Parties' mutual agreement as provisioned in § 5, it. 17 of the General Terms and Conditions.

17. An exception to the above may be allowed in cases where between the order placement by the User and the contract's execution there has been a significant change in the prices of the raw materials, regular expenses, or any other economic circumstances that have a detrimental impact on pricing for KronoSHOP. Then, the latter may update the prices to reflect any such changes. In that case, the User may agree to pay the updated price or cancel the order and receive a full reimbursement as set forth in §7 and in accordance with the return policy in these General Terms and Conditions.

18. The payment for the goods shall be finalized upon placing the order by the User via debit and/or credit card, or by wire transfer. All payments shall be in EUR.

19. KronoSHOP shall not be held responsible for any expenses related to fees, commissions or any other additional payment made by the User or their processing bank in relation to the transaction itself, or for any currency exchange. The same applies for transactions by KronoSHOP to the User, regardless of whether they are related to any reimbursement or for any other reason.

After this deadline, the order is considered to be automatically confirmed by the User. KronoSHOP reserves the right to refuse reimbursement for delivery costs, if any, the provisions of §7 below with respect to the User’s right to withdraw from the remote sales contract remaining fully applicable.

24. The Users understand and agree that certain goods may not be available at the time of the order. If KronoSHOP is unable to fulfil the order due to being out of stock or having insufficient inventory, KronoSHOP shall notify the User using the contact phone number provided by the User or by sending an email to the email address provided by the User.

26.  The delivery address specified by the User must be accessible by asphalt or paved road, and the delivery is made to the place closest to the specified delivery address, which (at the discretion of vehicle driver) allows unimpeded and safe parking, lowering of the cargo board and unloading.

27. The delivery shall be performed by a third-party delivery service provider. The delivery price is not included in the price of the goods. The transport and delivery cots depend on the weight and volume of the ordered items, the delivery area and any additional services (fixed-time delivery, etc.). The delivery provider's pricelist shall apply. 

27.1. Weight of the items listed on the website is indicative and has no binding force.

27.2. KronoSHOP reserves the right to provide free delivery subject to certain conditions set out on the website.

In any case, however, a signature will be required on delivery following identitiy verification.

33. Upon receiving the shipment and accepting the goods, the User must ensure that all items have been delivered and that there is no visible damage or flaw to the packaging of the goods (cartons or packs).

If the cartons/packs are damaged or contain defects, the User may:

- refuse the delivery and sign the documents by marking "refused due to damage".

- fully/partially accept the delivery, then notify the courier and sign the documents by marking "damaged".

§ 7 Cancelling a Remote Sales Contract

35. The Consumers may cancel the remote sales contract and request a return of the goods ordered and purchased by them within the legally provided grace period of 14 (fourteen) calendar days. This period is calculated as follows: from the date the goods have been received by the User or by a third party that is not the Consumer and has been assigned by the Consumer, or if the Consumer has ordered multiple items within the same order and those items are delivered separately, from the date the last item has been received by the Consumer or the third party that is not the Consumer or the courier. 

36. Returns are performed under the following conditions:

- The Consumer shall notify KronoSHOP in advance via email sent to service@krono-shop.com, stating that, they are refusing / withdrawing from the remote sales contract.

KronoSHOP shall confirm receipt of this notice via email;  

- Due to the specifics of the goods, the Consumer shall return the items using the same delivery service provider used for the initial delivery.

- The goods have not been processed or re-processed, or with an altered appearance (e.g. assembled, installed or cut).

37. In order to exercise their right the Consumer may optionally use the order cancellation form provided by KronoSHOP and available at: Return Form the Consumer shall clearly state their decision to cancel the contract. KronoSHOP shall immediately send an email confirmation that the cancellation has been received.

38. The Consumer shall return the goods back to KronoSHOP without any undue delay and in any case no later than 14 (fourteen) days of the date of the notification for cancelling the remote sales contract.

38.1. After receiving information that the consumer wishes to exercise his right, KronoSHOP will contact them in order to offer assistance in organizing the return of the goods. In this case only, the special prices agreed by KronoSHOP with the partner courier shall apply.

39. Any costs related to transit or other expenses (including additional services requested by the consumer) related to returning the goods shall be exclusively borne by the Consumer. The Consumer agrees these costs to be deducted from the amount which is to be reimbursed. Until the goods have been transferred back by the User to KronoSHOP, the risk of accidental perishing or any damages shall be exclusively borne by the Consumer.

40. In case of damaged packaging, compromised integrity of the protective stickers or other marking by fault of the Consumer, KronoSHOP reserves the right not to reimburse the full amount. The Consumer shall be responsible for the reduced value of the goods caused by trying out the goods in manner that differs from what is usually necessary to determine their nature, specification and proper functioning.

41. KronoSHOP shall reimburse the Consumer for the costs, including the costs incurred by the initial delivery, with no undue delay and no later than 14 (fourteen) days from the date of being notified of the Consumer's decision. KronoSHOP shall provide reimbursement via the payment method used for the initial transaction.

KronoSHOP is not obliged to reimburse any additional delivery costs except the standard delivery offered by KronoSHOP, namely fixed-time delivery, and other delivery services selected by the Consumer. 

§ 8 Guarantee; prescription deadlines

42. The goods have a legal guarantee for a period of 2 (two) years from the date of purchase delivery to comply with the sales contract, meaning that KronoSHOP shall be held liable if the goods do not comply in any way with the sales contract upon the delivery of the goods, even if KronoSHOP wasn't aware of the non-compliance. The User is entitled to have the goods brought into conformity free of charge by repair or replacement or to have an appropriate reduction made in the price or the contract rescinded with regard to those goods. In order to benefit from such right, the User must inform KronoSHOP of the lack of conformity within a period of two months, starting from the moment they discovered that the goods do not comply with what has been agreed in the contract. 

43. Insignificant deviations in shape and format shall not constitute non-compliance with the sales contract if those deviations have been listed in the relevant quality guidelines and known to the User. The User may not claim contract dissolution if the non-compliance of the user goods with the contract is insignificant.

44. In accordance with item 42 above, the User may choose between repair and replacement of the flawed goods, free of charge – meaning that KronoSHOP will subsequently fulfil its obligations by removing the flaw or by delivering goods that have no flaws, except when this is not possible or the remedy option selected by the User is disproportionate to the other option. 

44.1. The User may request an appropriate reduction of the price or have the contract rescinded, in the following cases:

(i) the User does not benefit from either the repair or the replacement of the good;

(ii) KronoSHOP has not taken remedial measures within a reasonable period of time;

(iii) KronoSHOP has not taken the remedial measure, according to the above, without significant inconvenience to the User.

45. Making the User goods compliant under the sales contract should be performed within 15 (fifteen) calendar days of the User's claim with respect to the lack of conformity.

46. The User's right of warranty claim is lost if the delivered goods have been altered, re-processed, stored or used incorrectly. Prior to processing or re-processing of the delivered goods, the User must inspect them for fitness for their intended use, even if they have been previously provided with samples of these goods.

47. KronoSHOP shall not be held liable for any deterioration of the goods when used outside the EU, unless KronoSHOP has guaranteed the fitness of the materials under such conditions.

48. Outside the statutory warranty, KronoSHOP may at any time change the commercial warranty terms, which goods are eligible for warranty, or cease providing commercial warranty altogether.  Commercial warranties shall apply on the condition that the products' instructions for use have been followed. The warranties do not apply for items that have been incorrectly stored or installed, used not as intended, cleaned incorrectly or using the incorrect agents. The warranties do not cover normal wear and tear and damage which has occurred as a result of impact or from other external sources. The warranties do not apply if the items have been used in an outdoor environment, in a humid environment or not in a home environment (unless otherwise specified).

49. The consumables and accessories offered by KronoSHOP are not subject to warranty hereunder.

50. The provisions above regulate KronoSHOP's warranty obligations exclusively and comprehensively, with the exception of any applicable conflicting contractual or compulsory legal provisions, including the Applicable legislation as per §1 above.
