The contract is covered by Gov. Decree 45/2014 (II.26.) on the detailed rules for contracts between consumers and businesses and takes into account the provisions of Directive 2011/83/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council on consumer rights.

The contract concludes at the receipt of the automatic confirmation.

 

Invoice

The Service Provider issues a paper-based invoice which is at all times provided to the User. In case of delivery the invoice is attached to the package, in case of personal receipt it is given to the User directly.

Payment

Payment method options on the Website are as follows:

  • Cash on delivery: The User pays the total of the order in cash upon delivery to the associate of the delivery company entrusted by the Service Provider.
  • Transfer in advance: The User transfers the exact final amount of the order to the Service Provider's bank account. In case of payment of the purchase price of the User's order by bank transfer or payment to a bank account, it must be fulfilled to the bank account of the Service Provider within 3 working days from the order.
  • PayPal: In this case we redirect the customer to PayPal’s system. There the customer can use credit card or an existing PayPal account to settle the purchase. Credit card details must always be entered on the PayPal website, therefore they will not reach the merchant in any circumstances. Accepted credit cards: Visa (some Electron cards as well), EC/MC embossed cards.
  • Cash on the spot: Payment in cash at the collection point indicated by the Service Provider.

If, despite all the attention of the Service Provider, an incorrect price is posted on the interface of the Web Store, in particular obviously false, e.g. significantly different from the well-known, generally accepted or estimated price of the product, possibly a “0” HUF or “1” HUF price due to a system error, the Service Provider is not obligated to deliver the product at an incorrect price, rather an offer will be sent for delivery at the correct price, in the knowledge of which the Customer may withdraw from the intention to purchase.

In case of an incorrect price there is a disproportion between the product’s real price and its indicated price, which an average customer should recognize immediately. Pursuant to Act V of 2013 on the Civil Code (Civil Code), the contract is concluded by the mutual and unanimous expression of the will of the parties. In case the parties cannot reach an agreement in the conditions of the contract, i.e. there is no declaration of mutual and unanimous expression of the will of the parties, in that case, there shall not be a validly concluded contract from which rights and obligations would arise. Based on this, an order confirmed at an incorrect/false price will be considered an invalid contract.

 

Options for receipt, Delivery

– GLS Delivery Service

The Service Provider entrusts GLS Delivery Services to deliver packages. Shipments are delivered on workdays from 08:00 to 17:00.

In case the User uses the services of the Delivery Service the User will receive notification from the Service Provider or the Delivery Service on the expected date of delivery and identification data of the package.

More information is available at GLS’s central phone number: +36 1 802 0265

The User is obligated to set a delivery address where the package can be received at the time of the delivery by the User or by the User’s representative. If the courier cannot find anyone at the delivery address at the time of the delivery, a second attempt will take place to deliver the package in 24 hours. If the second attempt is also unsuccessful, the package will be sent back to the sender, i.e. the Service Provider. After this the order is deleted. If the User requests a re-delivery, the Service Provider may charge the order with additional delivery costs, about which the User shall notified in all cases.

If the User finds the packing, or the product to be damaged, the User may request the courier to take a report, since the conditional and quantitative receipt of the product is concluded with the acceptance of the delivery from the courier and with the signing of the receipt verification documents. This means that after receipt the User may only exercise the right of withdrawal, therefore after the departure of the delivery person the Service Provider retrospectively cannot accept complaints regarding the condition and quantity of shipments.

Provided that at receipt the packing or the product is visibly damaged and the damage was done before receipt, the return and replacement of the product is provided by the Service Provider free of charge. The Service Provider is not responsible for any damage detected after receipt!

The processing of orders is done on workdays between 08:00 and 16:00 (CET). Processing is done at the latest on the 4. workday following the placement of the order. In case of payment of the purchase price of the User's order by bank transfer or payment to a bank account, it must be fulfilled to the bank account of the Service Provider within 3 workdays from the order. In case the purchase price does not show on the Service Provider’s bank account within 5 workdays of the order, the Service Provider is entitled to delete the order and notify the customer. General Service Provider deadline:

– in case of cash on delivery, in 2 workdays following the placement of the order.

– in case of bank transfer or payment to a bank account, in 2 workdays following the crediting of the purchase price. If the product in question is out of stock and order completion is not possible in above deadline, the Service Provider notifies the User of this circumstance and they discuss further details of the completion of the order.

Unless otherwise agreed, the Service Provider is obligated to provide (deliver) the product to the User without delay, but no later than within thirty days after the conclusion of the contract. In case of a delay on the part of the Service Provider the User is entitled to set an additional time limit. If the Service Provider does not complete the order in this additionally set time limit, the User is entitled to withdraw from the contract. The User is only entitled to withdraw from the contract without setting an additional time limit if the Service Provider denied completion of the order or if – according to the agreement concluded by the parties or the recognizable purpose of the service – the contract should have been fulfilled at the time specified for fulfillment – and not at another time.

Cash on the spot: In this case reception of the ordered products is possible at the address set by the Service Provider (2141 Csömör, Erkel Ferenc utca 26/A/1, Hungary) after the Service Provider notified the User via e-mail.

 

RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

The exercise of the right of withdrawal

The contents of this point apply only to a natural person acting outside of trade, profession or business who purchases, orders, receives, uses products as well as is the addressee of commercial communication regarding products (hereinafter referred to as Consumer).

The Consumer is entitled to withdraw from the contract without justification within fourteen (14) days from the date of receipt of the product, in case of several products the last product supplied, by the Consumer or a third party other than the courier designated by the Consumer.

The Consumer also exercises the right of withdrawal in the period between the day of the conclusion of the contract and the day of the receipt of the product.

If the Consumer wishes to exercise the right of withdrawal, the Consumer is obligated to deliver a statement containing clear intention to withdraw (e.g. via mail, fax, or mail sent in an electronic way) to the Service Provider using the contact details indicated in the 1. point of this GTC. For this purpose the Consumer may also use the statement of withdrawal sample attached to the confirmation e-mail. The Consumer exercises the right of withdrawal within deadline if the statement of withdrawal is sent to the Service Provider before the termination of the deadline specified above.

It is the burden of the Consumer to prove that the right of withdrawal was exercised in accordance with the provisions laid down by law.

In both cases the Service Provider immediately confirms via e-mail the arrival of the Consumer’s statement of withdrawal.

In case of paper-based withdrawal it qualifies as within deadline if the Consumer sends the statement in 14 calendar days (even on the 14. calendar day) to the Service Provider.

In calculating the deadline the Service Provider takes into account the date of posting in case of a statement arriving by post, the sending of a fax or e-mail in case of a statement sent by fax or e-mail. The Consumer should mail the statement by registered mail so that the date of posting can be definitely proven.

In case of withdrawal the Consumer is obligated to send the ordered product back to the Service Provider’s address indicated in the 1. point without unjustified delay, but at the latest in 14 days after sending the statement of withdrawal. The deadline is met if the Consumer sends the product (by post or by giving it back to the courier delivering it) before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.

The cost of delivering the product back to the Service Provider’s address is borne by the Consumer. The Service Provider cannot accept a package sent back with the payment method of cash on delivery. Other than the cost of sending back the product no other costs are borne by the Customer.

If the Consumer withdraws from the contract the Service Provider immediately – but at the latest in 14 days after the receipt of the Consumer’s statement of withdrawal – reimburses all consideration paid by the Consumer, including the delivery cost, except those additional costs which have arisen due to the fact that the Consumer has chosen a mode of transport other than the cheapest usual mode of transport offered by the Service Provider. The Service Provider is entitled to hold back reimbursement until the product in question has arrived to the Service Provider or until the Consumer has proven to have sent it back: of the two, the Service Provider shall take into account the earlier date.

During reimbursement the Service Provider uses the payment method used during the original transaction, except if the Consumer expressly consents to the use of a different payment method; there is no additional cost to the Consumer as a result of using this method of reimbursement.

The Consumer can only be held accountable in the reduction of value of the product if this occurred due to use exceeding the use required for assessing the product’s nature, properties and function.

 

Cases in which the Consumer is not entitled to the right of withdrawal

In case of a service contract, after the fulfillment of the entirety of the service, if the Service Provider began to fulfill the service with the Consumer’s expressed, prior consent, and the Consumer accepted that the right of withdrawal expires after the fulfillment of the service. In case of a product or service the price and cost of which depends on the possible fluctuation of the money market – even within the 14 day deadline of withdrawal – which cannot be affected by the Service Provider. In case of a non-prefabricated product produced by the Service Provider on the basis of the Consumer's instructions or express request, or a product that is clearly personalized for the User. In case of a product which is perishable or only retains its quality for a short time. In case of a product in a sealed packing after the opening of which – due to health or hygiene reasons – it cannot be sent back to the Service Provider. By opening a food color, food additive, or food flavoring, the User’s right of withdrawal from the purchase expires. In case of a product which, by its nature, is inseparably mixed with another product after its receipt. In case of an alcoholic drink the actual value of which depends on market fluctuations not affectable by the Service Provider and the price of which has been agreed upon by the parties at the conclusion of the contract of sale, however the fulfillment of the contract only takes place after the thirtieth day after the conclusion of the contract.

 

WARRANTY

Supplier warranty

In case of a faulty fulfillment by the Service Provider the User may exercise a warranty claim against the enterprise in accordance with the provisions of Act V of 2013 on the Civil Code.

In case of a consumer contract the User – qualifying as Consumer – may exercise warranty claims for those product defects that were already present at the receipt of the product within a 2 year expiry deadline starting at the time of receipt. Outside of the 2 year expiry deadline the User cannot exercise warranty claims.

In case of a contract not concluded with the Consumer the User may exercise warranty claims in a 1 year expiry deadline starting at receipt.

The User – according to the User’s choice – may make the following supply warranty claims: The User may request repair or replacement, except if the fulfillment of the Customer’s chosen claim is impossible or if it would impose a disproportionate additional cost to the enterprise compared to other claims. If the User did not or could not request repair or replacement, the User may request the consideration’s proportionate reduction or may repair the defect or have the defect repaired by a third party to the expense of the enterprise or may – ultimately – withdraw from the contract.

The User may switch the chosen supplier warranty claim to another, the cost of this is borne by the User, except if this was justified or if the reason for this was given by the enterprise.

The User is obligated to notify the Service Provider of any defect discovered immediately, but not later than within two (2) months after the discovery of the defect.

The User may only exercise supplier warranty claims directly against the enterprise.

In case of a contract concluded with a User qualifying as a Consumer, in case of a defect discovered within six months of the fulfillment (i.e. delivery, receipt) it should be presumed that the defect had been present at the time of receipt, except if the presumption is incompatible with the nature of the defect or the product. The Service Provider is only exempted from warranty if this presumption can be disproven, i.e. it can be proven that the defect in the product arose after the User has received it. Based on this, the Service Provider is not obligated to grant the User’s objection if the Service Provider can properly prove that the defect was caused by the improper use of the product. However, six months after the fulfillment the burden of proof is reversed, therefore in case of a disagreement the User is responsible for proving that the defect was present at the time of the receipt of the product.

In case of foodstuffs (food colorings, food additives, food flavorings) warranty expires at the opening of the product.

 

Product warranty

Product warranty may only arise in the case of a defect in a product. In this case the User qualifying as a Consumer may – according to the User’s choice – exercise the right specified in 7.1. or may exercise a product warranty claim.

As a product warranty claim, the User may only request the repair or replacement of a defective product.

A product qualifies as defective if it does not meet the quality requirements in force at the time of placing on the market or if it does not have the characteristics specified by the manufacturer.

The User may exercise product warranty claims within two (2) years of the product’s placing on the market by the manufacturer. Over this deadline exercising rights expire.

The User may only exercise product warranty claims against the manufacturer or distributor of the product.

In case of a product warranty claim’s exercise the User must prove the product’s defect.

The manufacturer (distributor) is exempted from product warranty obligations only if it can be proven that:

  • the product was not manufactured and placed on the market in the manufacturer’s business activities, or
  • the defect was not recognizable at the time of placing on the market according to the state of science and technology, or
  • the defect in the product is due to the application of legislation or a mandatory official regulation.

The manufacturer (distributor) only needs to prove one cause to be exempted.

Due to the same defect, a supplier warranty claim and a product warranty claim cannot be enforced simultaneously. However, in the event of a successful product warranty claim, the User may enforce supplier warranty claim against the manufacturer for the replaced product or repaired part.

In case of foodstuffs (food colorings, food additives, food flavorings) warranty expires at the opening of the product.

 

Guarantee

151/2003 (IX. 22.) contains regulations on the mandatory guarantee for certain durable consumer goods. The (material) scope of the decree only applies to products sold under a new consumer contract concluded in the territory of Hungary and listed in the annex to the decree.

Regarding the durable consumer goods listed in the government decree the mandatory guarantee is 1 year, the beginning of which is the date of receipt by the Consumer or if the commissioning is performed by the Service Provider or its agent, the date of commissioning.

The enterprise is exempted from guarantee only if it can be proven that the cause of the defect arose after fulfillment.

Due to the same defect the User may not exercise supplier warranty claim and guarantee claim, or product warranty claim and guarantee claim simultaneously, in parallel, however the User is due the rights arising from guarantee, the rights specified in 7.1. and 7.2. notwithstanding.

In case of foodstuffs (food colorings, food additives, food flavorings) guarantee expires at the opening of the product.

At the request of the User, the Seller shall provide information on the data handled, the purpose and duration of the data handling, the legal basis, as well as who receives or has received the User’s data and for what purpose. The Seller shall provide the requested information in writing within 5 days of the submission of the request

The Seller within 5 workdays of the receipt of the request shall delete this data, which – in this case – will not be recoverable again. The deletion does not apply to the data handling required by law (e.g. accounting regulations), the Seller will keep these for the required period of time.

The User may – furthermore – request the User’s data to be blocked. The Seller shall block the personal data if the User so requests or if, on the basis of the information available, it can be assumed that the deletion would harm the User’s legal interests. Personal data blocked in this way may only be handled for as long as the purpose of the data handling, which precluded the deletion of personal data, exists.

The User, as well as all parties to whom the data have previously been transmitted for data handling purposes shall be notified of the correction, blocking and deletion of the data. Notification may be omitted if this – with regard to data handling purposes – does not harm the legal interests of the User.

If the personal data is factually incorrect, and if the correct data is available to the data handler, the data handler shall rectify the error.

Personal data shall be deleted if (a) it is handled in an illegal manner; (b) the User requests deletion in the appropriate manner; (c) it is incomplete or incorrect – and this condition cannot be legally remedied – provided that deletion is not precluded by law; (d) the purpose of the data handling has ceased, or the statutory deadline for the storage of the data has expired; (e) ordered by a court or the NAIH (Hungarian National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of Information).

Instead of deletion the data handler shall block the personal data if the User so requests, or if, on the basis of the information available, it can be assumed that the deletion would harm the User’s legal interests. Personal data blocked in this way may only be handled for as long as the purpose of the data handling, which precluded the deletion of personal data, exists.

The data handler marks the handled personal data if the User disputes its correctness or accuracy, but its incorrectness or inaccuracy cannot be determined definitely.

If the data handler does not comply with the User’s request for correction, blocking or deletion within 25 days after receiving the request, the data handler shall notify the User in writing or – with the User’s consent – in an electronic way of the factual and legal reasons for the refusal of the request for correction, blocking or deletion. By accepting this Privacy Policy the User expressly consents to electronic communication in this regard as well. In case of the refusal of the request for correction, blocking or deletion, the data handler shall inform the User of the possibility of contacting the authorities, or judicial redress (in accordance with the Legal remedy point below).

The User may object to the handling of personal data. The Seller shall examine the objection as soon as possible – in 5 days at the most – after the submission of the request, judges its validity and notifies the requester of the decision made.
