  • Technical cookies (essential) help make the website usable by enabling basic functions such as site navigation and access to secure sections of the website. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.

  • Preferential (functional) cookies allow the website to remember information that changes how the website behaves or looks. For example, to automatically set the preferred language or region. In this case, the password is always encrypted. The use of these cookies is not necessary, but it will make the visit to the seller's online store much more pleasant and easier.

  • Statistical and marketing (analytical) cookies: help website owners understand how visitors use the website. They collect and communicate information anonymously. Analytical cookies on the store's web interface are collected through a digital marketing script from Google Inc., which then anonymizes this data. After anonymization, it is no longer personal data, because anonymized cookies cannot be assigned to a specific visitor/buyer, resp. specific person. The seller cannot find out from cookies how a specific user behaved on the web interface of the store (what pages he visited, what goods he viewed, etc.).

However, if the visitor of the store's web interface also disables the processing of technical and functional cookies, this will prevent the functioning of some functions. By disabling analytic cookies, the visitor will not prevent the display of marketing offers, they will only be less relevant to them.

  2. If the visitor or Buyer uses the web interface of the store and does not take the measures described in Article X.12., he/she agrees to the use of cookies by the Seller, as described in those Terms and Conditions.

FINAL PROVISIONS

  1. If a relationship based on a Purchase Contract contains an international (foreign) element, then the parties agree that the relationship is governed by local law. This does not affect the rights of the consumer under generally binding legal regulations.

  2. If any provision of the Terms and Conditions is invalid or ineffective, or if this occurs, instead of invalid clauses, a provision will be introduced so that the purpose of the invalid clause is as close as possible to the original. The invalidity or ineffectiveness of one provision does not affect the validity of the other provisions.

  3. Relationships and possible disputes arising on the basis of the Contract will be settled exclusively according to the law of the European Union.

  4. Possible disputes between the Seller and the Buyer can also be solved through an out-of-court settlement. In this case, the Buyer - Consumer may contact a non-judicial dispute resolution authority, such as the Czech Trade Inspection

  5. The Contract is concluded in English. If a translation of the text of the Contract is created for the Buyer’s need, the interpretation of the contract in English will apply in the case of a dispute over the interpretation of the terms.
