I. GENERAL PROVISIONS

These General Terms and Conditions of Sale (hereinafter referred to as the “GTC”) are governed by the law of the Czech Republic, in particular Act No. 89/2012 Coll., the Civil Code (hereinafter referred to as the “Civil Code”), and regulate, in accordance with the provisions of Section 1751(1) of the Civil Code, the mutual rights and obligations of the contracting parties arising in connection with or on the basis of a purchase contract (hereinafter referred to as the “purchase contract”) concluded through the online shop between the seller and a natural person (entrepreneur or consumer) or a legal entity (hereinafter referred to as the “buyer”).

By submitting an order, the buyer confirms that prior to concluding the purchase contract they have read these GTC, of which the pre-contractual disclosures form an integral part. The buyer further acknowledges that, pursuant to Section 1751 of the Civil Code, these GTC form an integral part of every purchase contract concluded between the seller and the buyer.

The place of performance under all contractual relationships concluded between the seller and the buyer is Boleslavska 1391, 250 01 Brandys nad Labem–Stara Boleslav.

II. DEFINITIONS

Consumer means any person who, outside the scope of their business activity or outside the scope of the independent exercise of their profession, concludes a contract with the seller or otherwise deals with the seller.

Entrepreneur (business entity) means a person who independently carries out a gainful activity on their own account and responsibility in a trade or similar manner with the intention of doing so on a continuing basis for the purpose of making a profit. An entrepreneur is also considered to be any person who concludes contracts related to their own commercial, manufacturing or similar activity or in the direct exercise of their profession, or, as the case may be, a person acting in the name of or on behalf of an entrepreneur. For the purposes of the GTC, an entrepreneur means a person who acts in accordance with the preceding sentence within the scope of their business activity. If the buyer states their company registration number in the order, they acknowledge that the rules set out in the GTC applicable to entrepreneurs shall apply to them and that the rules set out in the GTC applicable to consumers shall not apply to them.

Purchase contract means a contract concluded between the seller and the buyer, the subject matter of which is the transfer of title to goods published in the online shop. The purchase contract is concluded in the Czech language. After conclusion, the purchase contract is archived only for the period strictly necessary for the exercise of the rights and obligations of the contracting parties, during which time it may be made available to the consumer upon a written request. The GTC form an integral part of the purchase contract.

III. PRE-CONTRACTUAL DISCLOSURES

The seller hereby discloses that:

  • the costs of means of distance communication are borne by the buyer and do not differ from the basic rate (in the case of internet and telephone connections, in accordance with the conditions of the buyer’s operator; the seller does not charge any additional fees, which does not apply to any contractual transport costs);
  • the seller requires payment of the purchase price prior to the buyer taking delivery of the performance from the seller; any obligation to pay a deposit or similar payment relates to requests by the buyer for specific services, where such services are required and provided;
  • the prices of goods and services in the online shop are quoted in Czech currency and are final, i.e. inclusive of VAT at a rate corresponding to the applicable legal regulations in force at the time of conclusion of the purchase contract, including all statutory charges; however, delivery costs for goods or services vary depending on the chosen method and delivery provider and payment method; in the event that VAT changes prior to the conclusion of the purchase contract, or as the case may be, prior to dispatch of the goods, the buyer is obliged, having regard to the payment method chosen, to pay any shortfall in the purchase price;
  • graphical representations of goods are for information and illustrative purposes only and may not correspond to the actual appearance of the item;
  • the purchase contract is concluded in the Czech language;
  • in the event that the consumer has a complaint, they may submit it to the following e-mail address: eshop@lord.eu; they may also contact the competent supervisory or state oversight authority.

  • the seller’s contact details for communication with consumers: E-mail: eshop@lord.eu

 


Complaints may be submitted to the seller by e-mail at service@lord.eu.

IV. ORDER

All presentations of goods placed in the online shop are for information purposes only and the seller is not obliged to conclude a purchase contract in respect of such goods. The display of goods on the website does not constitute an offer within the meaning of Section 1732(2) of the Civil Code.

The buyer shall make an offer to conclude a purchase contract by submitting a completed order within the online shop by electronic means (hereinafter referred to as the “Order”). An Order shall be considered duly completed if it is made through the order form within the online shop and the buyer provides all mandatory details, which shall be accurate, complete and otherwise undistorted. Mandatory details shall include, in particular but not exclusively, unambiguous identification of the buyer, the quantity and type of goods, the delivery address and the buyer’s e-mail address. The buyer shall be liable for any loss arising from the provision of details that are not accurate, complete and otherwise undistorted.

The Order constitutes an offer to conclude a purchase contract and is binding upon the buyer from the moment of its submission. By submitting the Order, the buyer undertakes to pay the purchase price of the goods in the event that a purchase contract is concluded with the seller. Prior to submitting the Order, the buyer is given the opportunity to review and amend the details entered in the Order, including the ability to identify and correct any errors made during data entry. The details stated in the Order are considered correct by the seller unless the buyer and the seller agree otherwise.

Upon receipt of the Order, the seller shall confirm its receipt within the meaning of Section 1827(1) of the Civil Code by e-mail (hereinafter referred to as the “Confirmation”). This Confirmation does not constitute acceptance of the offer to conclude a contract and serves solely to inform the buyer that the Order has been received by the seller.

In the event that, following receipt of the Order from the buyer, the goods to which the Order relates become out of stock (in whole or in part), or in the event that the purchase price of the goods changes, the seller shall inform the buyer of this fact by e-mail in order to agree on the next course of action.

The costs of using means of distance communication (telephone, internet, etc.) for the purpose of placing the Order itself shall be borne by the buyer.

V. CONCLUSION OF THE PURCHASE CONTRACT

The purchase contract between the buyer and the seller is concluded at the moment the buyer receives the seller’s express and separate confirmation of unconditional acceptance of a duly submitted Order (i.e. acceptance of the Order), which is sent by the seller to the buyer’s e-mail address stated in the Order (hereinafter referred to as the “Unconditional Acceptance Confirmation”), which must not be confused with the Confirmation of a purely informational nature. The current version of the GTC (including all annexes thereto) is also attached to the Unconditional Acceptance Confirmation. In the event that the seller does not send the Unconditional Acceptance Confirmation of a duly submitted Order (acceptance of the offer) within 2 business days of its submission by the buyer, it shall be deemed that the offer has not been accepted by the seller, unless otherwise agreed between the seller and the buyer.

Under the purchase contract, the seller undertakes to deliver the goods as the subject of the purchase to the buyer and to enable the buyer to acquire title to the goods, and the buyer undertakes to accept the goods and to pay the seller the purchase price therefor.

The seller reserves title to the goods in accordance with Section 2132 of the Civil Code, and therefore the buyer shall acquire ownership of the goods only upon full payment of the purchase price. However, the risk of damage to the goods passes to the buyer upon their acceptance of the goods. In the event that, after conclusion of the purchase contract and before the goods have been delivered to the buyer, the purchase price of the goods increases, the seller shall notify the buyer who is not a consumer of this fact without undue delay by e-mail, and if the buyer who is not a consumer refuses to pay the increased purchase price, the purchase contract shall terminate automatically.

In the event of termination of the purchase contract pursuant to the above provision of the GTC, the buyer shall be entitled exclusively to a refund of the purchase price paid or any part thereof, but shall not be entitled to compensation for any loss arising in connection therewith, within the time limits and in the manner set out in these GTC for withdrawal from the purchase contract.

A purchase contract once concluded may be amended or cancelled only by agreement of the parties or on statutory grounds, unless otherwise stipulated in the GTC.

VI. DELIVERY OF GOODS

The seller shall deliver the goods to the buyer together with the documents relating to the goods and shall enable the buyer to acquire title to the goods in accordance with the purchase contract. The seller shall fulfil the obligation to deliver the goods to the buyer if the seller enables the buyer to handle the item at the place of performance and notifies the buyer thereof in good time.

The buyer is obliged to inspect the condition of the consignment upon acceptance in the presence of the carrier. The buyer is entitled to refuse to accept a consignment that is not in conformity with the purchase contract; if the buyer nevertheless accepts it, they must describe the damage in the carrier’s delivery record.

Any incomplete or damaged consignment must be reported without undue delay, no later than within 2 business days, by e-mail to eshop@lord.eu; the delivery record and photographic documentation must be attached.

This is without prejudice to the statutory time limit for exercising rights arising from defective performance. A subsequent complaint regarding incompleteness or external damage to the consignment does not deprive the consumer of the right to make a claim in respect of the item; however, it enables the seller to demonstrate that the matter does not constitute a lack of conformity with the purchase contract.

VII. PURCHASE PRICE

The buyer undertakes to pay the purchase price by the method stated in the Order (cash on delivery, bank transfer, payment card), where such methods are available in the online shop.

  • Cash on delivery – the buyer pays for the goods upon receipt from the carrier.
  • Bank transfer – upon receipt of the Order (offer to conclude a contract), the seller shall send the buyer the purchase price amount, the account number and the variable payment symbol. The buyer shall pay the purchase price to the seller’s bank account prior to dispatch of the goods; otherwise the goods will not be dispatched or handed over. This payment method shall be considered an advance payment towards the purchase price. In the case of this payment method, the buyer’s obligation to pay the purchase price shall be deemed fulfilled at the moment the relevant amount is credited to the seller’s account.
  • Payment card – upon placing the order (offer to conclude a contract), the buyer is redirected to the bank’s secure payment gateway, where the buyer enters the necessary payment details. This payment method shall be considered an advance payment towards the purchase price.

The seller reserves the right to restrict or expand the available payment methods depending on the nature and conditions of the particular contractual relationship; in such a case, the seller shall inform the buyer of this fact by e-mail in order to agree on the next course of action.

Information on the payment due date and information necessary for payment of the purchase price shall be sent by the seller to the buyer together with the Unconditional Acceptance Confirmation of the Order (acceptance of the offer). The due date of the purchase price depends on the chosen payment method and shall not fall later than the moment of delivery of the goods to the buyer.

The tax document – invoice containing the basic details of the purchase contract – shall be received by the buyer together with the goods or in the form of a download link sent by e-mail to the e-mail address provided by the buyer in the Order. All prices of goods, including promotional prices, shall remain valid until further notice, until stocks are exhausted, or for a specified period of time.

The buyer acknowledges that the final prices of products are displayed rounded to the nearest whole Czech crown (Kc) in accordance with the applicable legal regulations; in specific circumstances, therefore, a minor discrepancy from the stated purchase price may occur in the final total of all items purchased, as a result of such rounding. A detailed breakdown of the purchase price to haler precision is always displayed when the buyer is placing the Order.

The original price means the price at which the seller offered the relevant goods without taking into account any possible bonuses, marketing sales promotion campaigns and other discount schemes on the online shop operated by the seller, or the price non-bindingly recommended by the manufacturer or distributor; whichever of these prices better reflects the prevailing market price level of the given product shall be displayed.

The buyer acknowledges that situations may arise in which a purchase contract between the seller and the buyer is not concluded, in particular where the buyer orders goods at a price published in error as a result of a malfunction of the seller’s internal information system. In such a case, the seller undertakes to inform the buyer of this fact.

The seller reserves the right to declare a purchase contract as invalidly concluded in cases of misuse of personal data, misuse of a payment card, etc., or as a result of intervention by an administrative or judicial authority; the buyer shall be notified of such action without undue delay. The buyer acknowledges that in such cases a purchase contract cannot validly come into existence.

IX. PROTECTION OF PERSONAL DATA

The buyer acknowledges that personal data provided by the buyer to the seller may be processed within the meaning of Regulation (EU) No. 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council (GDPR) and related legislation.

The scope and manner of processing of buyers’ personal data by the seller is described in detail in a separate section of the website here: lord.eu/en_HU/adatvedelmi-szabalyzat/ (hereinafter referred to as the “Information Provided by the Data Controller”) and in a separate section on cookies here: lord.eu/en_HU/cookie-hasznalati-iranyelv/ (hereinafter referred to as the “Cookie Policy”). These documents form an integral part of these GTC. By submitting an Order, the buyer confirms that they have read the aforementioned documents prior to concluding the purchase contract.

In the event that the buyer grants consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR, personal data may also be processed for the seller’s marketing purposes and/or those of its contractual partners (including the sending of commercial communications by electronic means). Personal data processed solely on the basis of consent shall be processed for the duration of the validity of such consent. Processing for marketing purposes without consent may take place to the extent permitted by Section 7(3) of Act No. 480/2004 Coll., with the option to opt out at any time.

The conditions for the use of cookies and similar technologies on the seller’s website are governed by the “Cookie Policy” available at lord.eu/en_HU/cookie-hasznalati-iranyelv/, which forms an integral part of these GTC. The buyer has the option to adjust or refuse cookie storage settings through their browser and/or the consent management banner on the website.

X. WITHDRAWAL OF THE BUYER FROM THE PURCHASE CONTRACT

The consumer is entitled, in accordance with Section 1829(1) of the Civil Code, to withdraw from a purchase contract concluded at a distance or off-premises without stating a reason within 14 days. The period runs from the date of:

  • acceptance of the goods;
  • acceptance of the last delivery of goods, where an order consists of several types/items;
  • acceptance of the first delivery, in the case of a regularly repeated delivery of goods.
  • Sending the withdrawal notice prior to the expiry of the period is sufficient to meet the deadline.

The seller enables the consumer to withdraw using the model withdrawal form constituting Annex No. 1 to these GTC (“Withdrawal Notice”). The notice may be sent:

  • by e-mail to: eshop@lord.eu
Upon receipt, the seller shall without undue delay confirm receipt of the Withdrawal Notice in a textual form.

The consumer is obliged without undue delay, and no later than within 14 days of withdrawal, to dispatch or hand over the goods to the seller at the above address. The direct costs of returning the goods shall be borne by the consumer. Goods must be returned with adequate protection against damage; this does not limit the right to handle the goods to the extent necessary to familiarise oneself with their nature and characteristics.

Large appliances – transport arranged by the seller

  • In the case of large household appliances that, by their nature, cannot be returned by ordinary postal consignment (in particular refrigerators, freezers, washing machines, tumble dryers, dishwashers, cookers, built-in ovens, hobs, etc.), return transport shall be arranged by a carrier appointed by the seller.
  • The consumer shall request collection as part of the withdrawal notice or without undue delay thereafter; the seller shall agree with the consumer on the date and place of collection (usually the delivery address). The consumer is obliged to duly prepare the appliance for collection (disconnect, clean, secure, including ensuring clear access).
  • The direct costs of returning the goods shall be borne by the seller.
  • The consumer may also choose to arrange their own transport at their own cost and risk, but must agree in advance on a collection date at the service centre/warehouse designated by the seller.
  • Where the nature of the item permits, use of the original packaging is recommended; in any case, the appliance must be adequately secured for transport. The risk of damage during transport shall be borne by the party arranging the transport.

The seller shall refund all payments received, including delivery costs (up to the amount of the least expensive delivery method offered), without undue delay and no later than within 14 days of withdrawal. The seller is not obliged to refund the funds before receiving the returned goods or before proof of their dispatch is provided, whichever occurs first. Payments shall be refunded by the same method unless the parties agree otherwise and the buyer does not incur any additional costs as a result.

The buyer shall be liable for any diminution in the value of the goods resulting from handling the goods other than as necessary to familiarise themselves with their nature and characteristics. Any resulting compensation may be unilaterally set off by the seller against the amount to be refunded.

Where a gift is provided together with the goods, the gift agreement is concluded subject to a resolutory condition. If the consumer withdraws from the purchase contract, the gift agreement ceases to have effect and the gift must be returned together with the goods; otherwise the right to monetary compensation to the value of the usual price may arise.

The consumer may not withdraw in the cases specified in Section 1837 of the Civil Code, in particular in respect of contracts for:

  • the provision of services that were, with the consumer’s prior express consent, fully performed before the expiry of the withdrawal period and the consumer was informed that their right of withdrawal would be lost;
  • the supply of goods customised according to the consumer’s wishes or for their personal needs;
  • the supply of goods in sealed packaging that the consumer has removed from the packaging and that cannot be returned for hygiene reasons;
  • repair or maintenance carried out at the consumer’s premises at their request;
  • and other cases exhaustively listed in Section 1837 of the Civil Code.

Where the buyer is an entrepreneur, withdrawal shall be governed by the agreement of the parties and these GTC; the statutory 14-day right under Section 1829 of the Civil Code shall not apply.

ANNEX 2 - WARRANTY CONDITIONS FOR LORD BRAND HOUSEHOLD APPLIANCES

These warranty conditions of Mc TREE a.s., with its registered office at Praha 9, Živanická 26, Postcode 19017, Company Registration No.: 25071939, registered in the Commercial Register maintained by the Municipal Court in Prague under file no. B 4246 (hereinafter also referred to as the “provider”), apply to LORD brand household appliances and accessories distributed and/or sold by the Provider (hereinafter also referred to as the “appliance”) purchased by consumers (hereinafter referred to as the “consumer” or “buyer”) on the market in the Czech Republic.

Warranty of Quality

  • The provider provides a warranty of quality for the appliance, i.e. that the purchased appliance, when used normally in the consumer’s household within the meaning of Section 419 of Act No. 89/2012 Coll., the Civil Code, as amended, and without being overloaded, shall retain its functions and performance for the warranty period specified below (hereinafter referred to as the “warranty”).
  • The buyer is entitled to exercise the right arising from a defect that occurs in appliances during the warranty period, provided that the installation, operating and maintenance instructions are observed in the context of normal domestic use. By asserting a defect in the appliance under the warranty, the buyer accepts these warranty conditions.
  • For appliances sold at a reduced price due to a defect, the warranty shall not cover the defects for which the reduced price was agreed.
  • In the case of used appliances, the warranty shall not cover defects corresponding to the degree of use or wear and tear that the appliance had upon acceptance by the buyer.
  • Rights under the warranty shall not arise if the buyer was aware of a defect in the appliance at the time of its acceptance.
  • No warranty of quality is provided for appliances used for purposes other than domestic use or placed in an environment other than a domestic setting (e.g. restaurants, hotels, hairdressers, laundries, butchers, petrol stations, repair workshops, etc.).
  • The warranty arising from these warranty conditions applies only within the territory of the Czech Republic.

Rights Under the Warranty

  • Under the warranty, the buyer is entitled to free-of-charge repair of the claimed defect in the appliance. A complaint may, at the provider’s discretion, instead of being resolved by repair, be resolved by replacement of the defective appliance with another (of the same type and specification, new and free from defects; at the provider’s sole discretion, an appliance of a newer and/or technologically superior specification, or an appliance whose price exceeds that of the defective appliance for another reason, may be provided by way of replacement) or, as the case may be, by a refund of the purchase price. The provider may proceed at its discretion, in particular where repair would be disproportionately costly (especially having regard to the significance of the claimed defect and the value the appliance would have without the defect) or where the claimed defect proves to be irremediable. The provider may refer the buyer for a replacement of the appliance or, as the case may be, a refund of the purchase price to the retailer from whom the buyer purchased the defective appliance.

The Appliance Cannot Be Repaired Free of Charge Under the Warranty in the Following Cases:

  • where the defect was caused, after the risk of damage to the appliance passed to the buyer, by an external event, unless the defect in the appliance was caused solely by the provider or the retailer of the appliance;
  • where the sold appliance was installed or used contrary to the accompanying instructions for use or installation instructions, in particular where the appliance was excessively loaded, professionally installed by an unqualified person, or connected to unsuitable sources (e.g. unsuitable water or gas pressure, unsuitable electrical connection, etc.);
  • in the case of a fault caused by improper handling or unsuitable placement (e.g. a damp, dusty, chemically or otherwise unsuitable environment);
  • where the appliance is used for a purpose other than that specified by the manufacturer, in particular where it is used other than for the consumer’s personal purposes (outside the home);
  • in the case of defects caused by unprofessional interference, unauthorised structural modifications or repairs or other interference with the appliance carried out by an unauthorised person;
  • in the case of damage arising from a natural disaster or associated with (or bearing the characteristic signs of) other external influences (e.g. excessive voltage in the electricity distribution network, short circuits or instability of the distribution network, etc.);
  • where proof of purchase of the appliance is not provided;
  • in the case of ordinary wear and tear of the appliance caused by its normal use;
  • in the case of damage to or defects in aesthetic components of the appliance that do not affect its functionality, such as:
    • defects caused by transport damage or relocation (e.g. scratches, dents, cracks, broken glass and shelves, etc.),
    • defects in non-functional aesthetic components such as handles, glass panels, control switches, etc., which are the result of ordinary wear and tear,
    • discolouration of plastic components (this is a normal physicochemical phenomenon occurring over time with use),
    • defects in consumable materials whose service life is determined by the nature of the component (e.g. light bulbs, water filters, air filters, dust filters, carbon filters of all types, etc.),
    • defects in accessories and optional glass fittings (e.g. shelves, trays, etc.) caused by improper handling or unreasonable treatment.

The Warranty Further Does Not Cover:

  • the costs of any connections of the appliance to sources (e.g. electrical connections, water or gas connections, etc.);
  • unnecessary costs of transporting the appliance to workshop premises (e.g. in the event of unjustified refusal by the buyer of repair at their place of residence);
  • re-adjustment of the door opening direction, reversal of the appliance’s hinges, etc.

Warranty Period

  • The warranty period shall be 2 years (hereinafter referred to as the “warranty period”).
  • The warranty period runs from the date of delivery of the appliance to the buyer; where the appliance was dispatched under the contract, it runs from the date of delivery of the appliance to the place of destination.
  • The buyer must submit a complaint without undue delay after discovering a defect in the appliance, but no later than by the end of the warranty period.
