In the event of exercising the right to withdraw from the Sales Agreement in whole or in part, Vershold shall immediately, not later than within 14 calendar days, reimburse all amounts paid by the Customer for the entire Order (in the event of withdrawal from the Sales Agreement in full) or part of the amounts corresponding to the Price and other costs, in particular the costs of delivery of the Products in relation to which the Customer has withdrawn from the Sales Agreement (in the event of withdrawal from the Sales Agreement in part).

25. The Consumer may exercise their rights in respect of the Product’s non-conformity with the Agreement independently from the rights arising under the Guarantee granted by Vershold.  Exercising any rights arising under the Guarantee shall not affect Vershold’s liability resulting from the warranty. However, if the Consumer exercises their Guarantee rights on the Product, the period for exercising their rights in respect of non-conformity with the Agreement shall be suspended from the date of notifying Vershold of the non-conformity of the Product. This period shall run again from the date Vershold refuses to perform its obligations under the Guarantee or from the date when the time for performing them has expired.

28. Vershold shall reply to the Consumer’s complaint and/or fulfil its non-conformity or Guarantee obligations without delay, and no later than within 30 calendar days from the date the complaint has been filed by the Consumer.

  1. PROVISIONS RELATING TO NON-CONSUMER CUSTOMERS
  1. Point 16 of the Terms and Conditions shall apply only to Customers who are not Consumers, subject to point 16.10 and 16.25 below.
  2. Vershold delivers Products free of defects. The basis and extent of Vershold’s liability to the Customer who is not a Consumer - if the Product sold has a physical or legal defect (warranty) - are set out in the provisions of the Civil Code Act, in particular Art. 556 et seq. of the Civil Code. In particular, Vershold shall be liable to the Customer who is not a Consumer, if the Product (sold item) has a physical or legal defect. Pursuant to Art. 5561 of the CC, a physical defect is a non-conformity of the sold item (Product) with the Sales Agreement.
  3. Vershold shall be liable to the Customer who is not a consumer, if the item sold (Product) is owned by a third party or burdened with third party rights, or if the limitation concerning the use or disposal of a given item results from a decision or ruling of a competent body (legal defect).
  4. Vershold is exempt from liability under the warranty if the Customer was aware of the Product’s defect at the moment of conclusion of the Sales Agreement or the reception of the Product. Vershold shall be liable under the warranty for physical defects of the Product, if such defects existed at the moment of transfer of risk to the Customer who is not a Consumer or resulted from a cause present in the Product at that moment.
  5. The scope of the Customer’s rights in relation to Vershold’s liability under the warranty for defects of a Product shall be governed by the provisions of the Civil Code, and particularly Art. 560-562 and Art. 566 of the CC.  Specifically, if the Product sold has a defect, the Customer may:

(a)       request reduction of the Price or withdraw from the Sales Agreement, unless Vershold immediately and without undue inconvenience to the Customer who is not a Consumer replaces the defective Product with a defect-free one or removes the defect. This limitation shall not be applicable, if the Product has already been replaced or repaired by Vershold, or if Vershold has not fulfilled its obligation to replace the Product with a defect-free or remove the Product’s defect. The reduced Price shall remain in such a proportion to the Price specified in the Agreement corresponding as the value of the defective Product remains to the value of a defect-free Product. If out of several Products sold under one Sales Agreement, only some are defective and can be separated from those that are free of defects without any harm to the Customer who is not a Consumer or Vershold, the Customer’s right to withdraw from the Sales Agreement shall be limited only to the defective items (Products). The Customer cannot withdraw from the Sales Agreement if the defect of the Product is insignificant;

(b)       request replacement of the Product with a defect-free one or removal of the Product’s defect. Vershold is obliged to replace the defective product with a defect-free one or to remove the defect within reasonable time and without undue inconvenience to the Customer who is not a Consumer; Vershold may refuse to satisfy the Customer’s request to replace the Product with a defect-free one or to remove the defect of the Product if it is impossible to bring the defective Product into conformity with the Sales Agreement in the manner chosen by the Customer who is not a Consumer or if, in comparison with the other possible way of bringing it into conformity with the Sales Agreement, it would require excessive costs.   The costs of replacement or repair shall be incurred by Vershold.  In the case of replacement of the Product for a defect-free one and in the case of withdrawal from the Sales Agreement, Vershold shall accept the defective item (Product) from the Customer who is not a Consumer.

(c)       if the Customer is a Consumer, they may request replacement of the Product with a Product free of defects instead of the proposed defect removal, or they may request defect removal instead of the proposed Product replacement, unless bringing the Product into conformity with the Sales Agreement in the manner chosen by the Customer who is not a Consumer is impossible or requires excessive costs in comparison to the manner proposed by Vershold. The assessment whether such costs are excessive shall take into consideration the value of a defect-free Product, the type and significance of the defect detected and the inconvenience to the Customer who is not a Consumer related to another method of satisfying the warranty obligations, subject to reservations and in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Civil Code.

6. Vershold shall be liable under the warranty if the physical defect of the Product is detected earlier than two years from the date of reception of the Product by the Customer who is not a Consumer. The claim for defect removal or replacement of the Product with a defect-free one shall be subject to a time limit of one year, running from the detection of the defect. If the Customer has filed a claim for defect removal of replacement of the Product with a defect-free one, the term for withdrawing from the Sales Agreement or requesting Price reduction shall run from the moment of ineffective expiry of the term for the Product replacement or defect removal. In the case of proceedings before a court or an arbitration court related to one of the warranty rights, the term for exercising any other Customer’s rights under such warranty shall be suspended until the conclusion of the proceedings.

  1. In the case of proceedings before a court or an arbitration court related to one of the warranty rights, the term for exercising any other Customer’s rights under such warranty shall be suspended until the conclusion of the proceedings. This provision applies accordingly to mediation proceedings, with the time limit for the exercise of other warranty rights vested in the Customer starting to run from the date of the court’s refusal to approve the settlement agreement concluded before the mediator or the ineffective termination of the mediation.
  2. The Products presented in the Online Store may be covered by Vershold’s quality guarantee. In such a case, Vershold shall be the Guarantor. The information whether a given Product is covered by the Guarantee and the detailed conditions thereof, including its term (running from the day of reception of the Product by the Customer who is not a Consumer) is provided on individual Products subpages. Vershold’s liability under the Guarantee (if Vershold has provided a Guarantee notice for a given Product) shall cover only the Product’s defects resulting from causes existing in the sold Product.

9. Under the Guarantee granted for the Product in accordance with item 8 above, the Customer may claim replacement of the defective Product with a defect-free one or repair of the Product (defect removal) free of charge, provided that the defects of the Product become apparent within the Guarantee period communicated to the Customer who is not a Consumer in the manner described in item 8 above. For the avoidance of doubt, the Guarantee shall not include the right to reimbursement of the Price (in part or in whole), or to any services from Vershold other than those expressly and clearly specified in this item.

10. The Customer may exercise their warranty rights for physical defects in the Product independently from the rights arising under the Guarantee granted by Vershold.  Exercising any rights arising under the Guarantee shall not affect Vershold’s liability resulting from the warranty. However, if the Customer who is not a Consumer exercises their Guarantee rights on the Product, the period for exercising their warranty rights shall be suspended from the date of notifying Vershold of the defect. This period shall run again from the date Vershold refuses to perform its obligations under the Guarantee or from the date when the time for performing them has expired.

11. The Customer who is not a Consumer may file a complaint in any way convenient for the Customer, and in particular it may be submitted in writing to the address: Fulfilio Sp. z o.o Łubińska 10, 05-532 Łubna; via the CSO by telephone, email or using a contact form available on the Website, or using a chat functionality available on the Website (the CSO works from Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and may be contacted by calling +48 603 258 866 or sending an email to: info@vintagecuisine.it.

13. If it is necessary for Vershold to examine the Product in order to handle the Customer’s complaint or to exercise any of the Customer’s rights or Verhold’s obligations resulting from the warranty for defects or the Guarantee (Art. 5612 of the CC and Art. 580 of the CC in relation to Art. 354 § 2 of the CC), the Customer should prepare a parcel with the Product they consider defective and deliver the Product in a manner convenient to them and at the exclusive expense of Vershold to the address: Fulfilio Sp. z o.o Łubińska 10, 05-532 Łubna, or to the address indicated by Vershold on the Product subpage.
14. If, due to circumstances, the defect of the Product should be removed by Vershold on the site where the Product was located at the time defect was revealed, or if the type of the Product or the way of its assembly make the delivery of the Product by the Customer impossible or excessively difficult, the Customer may, on Vershold’s request, provide Vershold with access to the Product at its location for the purpose of its examination or evaluation, each time by appointment. If the Product is made available to Vershold for the purpose of handling the complaint or fulfilling Vershold’s obligations under the Guarantee or warranty, the risk of accidental loss or damage of the Product in the period between its release to Vershold and its reception by the Customer shall be borne by Vershold.

 

15. Vershold shall have the right to withdraw from a Sales Agreement concluded with a Customer who is not a Consumer within 14 days of its conclusion. The withdrawal from the Sales Agreement may be made without stating any reason and shall not give rise to any claims against Vershold on the part of the Customer who is not a Consumer.

16. For Customers who are not Consumers, Vershold shall have the right to limit the choice of available payment methods, including the right to require prepayment in whole or in part, regardless of the payment method chosen by the Customer and the fact that a Sales Agreement has been concluded.

17. Upon Vershold’s transfer of the Product to the carrier, the benefits and obligations associated with the Product and the risk of accidental loss of or damage to the Product shall be transferred to the Customer who is not a Consumer. Vershold shall not be liable in any way for any loss of or damage to the Product occurring from acceptance for carriage until delivery to the Customer or for any delay in shipment.

18. Pursuant to Article 558 § 1 of the Civil Code, Vershold’s warranty liability for the Product towards a Customer who is not a Consumer shall be fully excluded.

19. With respect to Customers who are not Consumers, Vershold may terminate the Service Agreement or any licence agreement entered into under these Terms and Conditions with immediate effect and without stating any reasons. Termination shall be effected by sending the Customer a notice in any form.

20. Vershold, any of its employees, authorised representatives or agents shall not be liable to the Customer, its subcontractors, employees, authorised representatives or agents for any damage, including loss of profits, unless the damage was caused by them intentionally. Whenever the liability of Vershold, its employees, authorised representatives or agents is established, the liability to the Customer who is not a Consumer, irrespective of its legal basis, shall be limited - both in the context of a single claim as well as for any claim by the Customer - to the amount of the Price paid and the delivery costs for the last concluded Sales Agreement, but always to an amount not exceeding EUR 100.

21. Any disputes relating to the operation of the Online Store and concluded Agreements arising between Vershold and a Customer who is not a Consumer shall be brought before the court having jurisdiction over the registered office of Vershold.
