(b) Access to the User Account is secured by a username and password. The Customer is obliged to maintain confidentiality regarding login credentials for his/her User Account; he/she must keep such data so that they are not available to others and may not allow other persons to use his/her User Account.
(c) If the Customer does not use his/her User Account for more than 3 months or breaches his/her duties under the Purchase Agreement (including these terms and conditions of business), the Seller may terminate the Customer’s User Account; for the avoidance of doubt, it is stated that in such case the Customer may open a new User Account.

5. CONCLUSION OF PURCHASE AGREEMENT
(a) The Customer may order Products from the Online Store through his/her User Account.

(c) If the buyer is interested in purchasing a Product, he/she must complete all the mandatory Order data and send the completed Order to the Seller by clicking on the “Send order” button. Please note that by sending an Order the Customer confirms that he/she has familiarized him/herself with these terms and conditions.
(d) The Seller immediately confirms receipt of the Order by e-mail to the Customer’s e-mail address specified in the Order or via the User Account; however, such confirmation does not constitute acceptance of the Order.
(e) Depending on the Order’s content (the purchase price), the Seller is entitled to ask the Customer for additional confirmation of the Order (for example in writing or by telephone). If the buyer fails to provide additional confirmation of the Order, the Seller is entitled to require payment of the full purchase price before dispatching the Product to the buyer.
(f) For the avoidance of doubt, it is stated that Orders cannot be considered accepted simply by being delivered to the Seller; acceptance by the Seller is always required for the conclusion of the Purchase Agreement. The Seller may accept the Order either electronically via e-mail or the User Account or directly by dispatching the Product ordered to the Customer. The Purchase Agreement is concluded on the day of such acceptance between the Seller and the buyer for the Product specified in the Order.
(g) If the Seller is unable to accept the Order (for example, due to a change in the price of the ordered Product, because it is out of stock, etc.), it will notify the Customer without undue delay, but no later than 10 days after receipt of the Order. For the avoidance of doubt, however, it is stated that the Seller’s delay in sending the rejection of the Order to the Customer within the stated period does not mean automatic acceptance of the Order.
(h) The Customer must notify the Seller without delay of any request for change or cancellation of the Order and further action will be agreed. However, any change or cancellation of the Order will not be made after the conclusion of the Purchase Agreement (i.e. in particular after the sending of acceptance of the Order to the Customer). In the event of cancellation of an Order by a Customer who is an entrepreneur, if the Product was specifically ordered from its supplier for such Customer, the Seller is only obliged to refund to the Customer 75% of the total price of the Product in respect of which the cancellation occurred; the Seller will retain the remaining 25% of such price to cover the costs associated with the delivery of such Product, its transport and other similar costs.
6. PRODUCT PRICE AND OTHER COSTS
(a) Prices are always shown on the relevant Online Store website in relation to individual Products, as final prices. The price of the Product may change from time to time and the price specified in the Order applies to the purchase of the Product. The price specified in the Order may be changed only if the amount of value added tax corresponding to such change occurs between the date such Order is sent to the Seller and the date the Purchase Agreement is concluded.
(b) In the event that the price of the Product is marked as promotional at the time of ordering, it only applies for a certain period of time specified on the Online Store.

(c) Upon payment of the price for the Product, but no later than at the same time as the Product, the relevant invoice issued based on the billing data provided by the Customer in the Order will be delivered to the buyer. The invoice will be sent electronically to the Customer’s e-mail address specified in the Order or in the User Account.
(d) The price stated for Products marked as “Pre-Order” is based on calculations made at the time the Product was established. In such cases, the price depends mainly on the current conditions at the supplier and currency exchange rates. Both these factors are not constant and may force the Seller to change the originally stated price of such Product. The Seller reserves the right, depending on the factors described, to change the price of the Product from the one originally quoted, even though the Customer has already ordered it.

(e) In the other cases not mentioned above, the rights under defective performance pursuant to the Civil Code apply only in respect of defects that a Product already had on the date of its delivery to the Customer (even if they manifested later) or defects that arose later but as a result of the Seller’s breach of duties.
(f) If, at a time the Seller is liable for defects and if a warranty for the quality of the Product is provided, a defect in the Product is found to be associated with a right under the Civil Code or the relevant warranty certificate, the Customer may:

(iii) exercise other rights under defective performance arising from the relevant provisions of the Civil Code.

In the event that the Customer is in default collecting the Product during this period, the Customer is obliged to pay the Seller a storage fee in an appropriate amount corresponding to the Product’s size.
