    1. If the above mentioned right of withdrawal and right of termination is available, then the Consumer is entitled, in the case of a contract for the sale of goods, to withdraw within 14 days of the delivery of

      1. the product,

      2. the last product supplied when supplying more than one product,

      3. in the case of products consisting of several lots or pieces, the last lot supplied or piece,

      4. if the product is to be supplied regularly within a specified period, the first service,

      using the model notice of withdrawal and termination indicated in clause 14.4 of these GTC or by any other clear declaration to that effect. The Consumer may also exercise their right of withdrawal during the period between the date of conclusion of the contract and the date of receipt of the product.

    2. In addition to completing the template indicated in clause 14.4 of the GTC, in the case of an e-ticket or voucher that is not valid for a specific date, the Customer must indicate the code number of the e-ticket/voucher. A declaration must also be made that the Visitor has not used the ticket. It is not necessary to send the ticket as it will be electronically cancelled by the Service Provider.

    3. If the Visitor has not purchased an admission ticket but a merchandising item, or has not received a printed ticket for a specific date by courier service, s/he must return it within fourteen days of the cancellation notification to the address Floor 1, Dorottya utca 6, Budapest, H-1051. The Visitor shall bear the cost of returning the goods. The Visitor shall be liable for any depreciation resulting from use beyond the use necessary to determine the nature, properties and functioning of the product.

    4. If the Visitor lawfully withdraws from the contract, the Service Provider shall refund the full amount paid by the consumer as consideration without delay, but no later than fourteen days from the date of becoming aware of the withdrawal. The Supplier shall refund the amount of the refund in the same way as the payment method used by the Visitor. In the case of a contract for the sale of a product, the Supplier may retain the amount due to the Visitor until the consumer has returned the product or has proved beyond reasonable doubt that they have returned it.

  3. Rules on the procedure for exercising the right of withdrawal

    1. In the case of a written cancellation, it shall be deemed to have been given in time if the Visitor sends his/her declaration to the Service Provider within 14 calendar days (up to the 14th calendar day). If the Visitor sends the withdrawal by post, the Service Provider shall take the date of posting into account for the calculation of the time limit, if by e-mail, the date of sending the e-mail. It is recommended that the Visitor sends his/her letter by registered mail in order to provide credible evidence of the date of dispatch, in particular with regard to the burden of proof described below.

    2. The burden of proof concerning the Visitor’s compliance with the rules of the right of withdrawal in accordance with the provisions of the applicable law is on the Visitor.

    3. The Service Provider is obliged to acknowledge receipt of the Visitor's withdrawal by e-mail within a reasonable period of time.

    4. The ticket (electronic code) purchased on the website operated by the Service Provider does not have to be returned, even if it has been printed. If the Visitor has purchased another product, in case of cancellation s/he is obliged to return the ordered product to the address of Floor 1 Dorottya utca 6, Budapest, H-1051 Hungary, without undue delay, but not later than 14 days from the date of the communication of the cancellation. The deadline is deemed to have been met if the Visitor sends (posts or delivers to the courier service ordered by the Visitor) the product before the 14-day deadline.

    5. The cost of returning the product to the Service Provider's address shall be borne by the Visitor. The Service Provider does not assume the responsibility or cost of retrieving the product from the Visitor. The Service Provider will not accept parcels returned by cash on delivery or under any payment obligation. Apart from the cost of returning the product, the Visitor will not be charged any other costs in connection with the cancellation.

    6. The Visitor may be liable for the depreciation of the Product in the event of withdrawal, if it is due to use beyond the use necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Product. The Service Provider may therefore claim compensation for depreciation or reasonable costs resulting from the use beyond the use necessary to inspect the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Product.

    7. If the Visitor withdraws from the contract, the Service Provider will immediately, but no later than 14 days after receipt of the Visitor's notice of withdrawal, refund all consideration (product price) paid by the Visitor, including the cost of transport (delivery), except for any additional costs incurred because the Visitor chose a different mode of transport than the cheapest usual mode of transport offered by the online store.

    8. The Service Provider is entitled to withhold the refund until the product has been returned or the Visitor has provided credible proof that it has been returned, whichever is the earlier.

    9. When refunding, the Service Provider will use the same payment method as the original transaction. Refunds will be made within 4 weeks of the request. For tickets, refunds are only possible for tickets purchased within 180 days.

    10. Upon receipt of the parcel by our company, a three-person committee is present to unpack the parcel and examine the returned product, and if the product is damaged or otherwise defective (for example, the returned product was damaged, used, dirty or incomplete), minutes is taken on the spot.

15. WARRANTY, PRODUCT WARRANTY AND GUARANTEE

Warranty and guarantee rights co-exist. The fundamental difference is that in the case of a guarantee the rules on the burden of proof are more favourable to the Visitor.

  1. Warranty

    1. In which cases can you exercise your warranty right?

    In the event of defective performance by the Service Provider, you may assert a claim against the company under the rules of the Civil Code.

    1. What rights do you have under a warranty claim?

    You may - at your option - make the following warranty claims:
    You can ask for a repair or replacement, unless one of these is impossible or would impose disproportionate extra costs on the business compared to another request. If you did not or could not ask for the repair or replacement, you can ask for a proportionate reduction in the price or you can have the defect repaired or replaced by another party at the expense of the undertaking or, as a last resort, you can withdraw from the contract.
    You can switch from one warranty right to another, but you will bear the cost of the switch unless it was justified or the business gave a reason for it.

    1. What is the deadline for you to claim warranty?

    You must notify us of the defect as soon as you discover it, but no later than two months after the defect is discovered. However, you should note that you cannot claim any rights under a guarantee beyond the two-year limitation period from the date of performance of the contract.

    1. Who can you claim against?

    You may assert a warranty claim against the Service Provider.

    1. What are the other conditions for the enforcement of your rights under the accessory warranty?

    Within six months from the date of performance, you can assert your claim for a replacement warranty on condition that you prove that the product or service was provided by the Service Provider. However, after six months from the date of performance, you must prove that the defect which you have discovered existed at the time of performance.

  2. Product warranty

    1. In what circumstances can you exercise your right to a product warranty?

    In the event of a defect in a movable item (product), you may, at your option, exercise your right under point 1 or claim under the product warranty.

    1. What rights do you have under a product warranty claim?

    As a product warranty claim, you can only ask for the defective product to be repaired or replaced.

    1. In which cases is the product considered defective?

    A product is defective if it does not meet the quality requirements in force when it was placed on the market or if it does not have the characteristics described by the manufacturer.

    1. What is the deadline for you to claim under the product warranty?

    You have two years from the date on which the product was placed on the market by the manufacturer to make a product warranty claim. After this period, you lose this right.

    1. Against whom and under what other conditions can you assert a product warranty claim?

    You can only exercise your right to claim under a product warranty against the manufacturer or distributor of the movable item. You must prove that the product is defective in order to make a product warranty claim.

    1. In which cases is the manufacturer (distributor) exempted from its product warranty obligations?

      The manufacturer (distributor) is only exempted from its product warranty obligation if it can prove that:

      • the product was manufactured or marketed for purposes other than its business, or
      • the defect was not detectable according to the state of science and technology at the time it was placed on the market, or
      • the defect in the product results from the application of a legal or regulatory requirement.
        The manufacturer (distributor) only needs to prove one ground for exemption.
        Please note that you may not claim for the same defect warranty and product warranty at the same time. However, if your product warranty claim is successful, you may assert your warranty claim against the manufacturer for the replaced product or repaired part.
  3. Guarantee

In the event of defective performance, the Service Provider is obliged to provide warranty in the case of the sale of new consumer durables (e.g. technical articles, tools, machines) listed in Government Decree 151/2003 (IX. 22.) on the mandatory warranty for certain consumer durables, as well as their accessories and components within the scope specified therein.

  1. In what circumstances can you exercise your right to guarantee?

In the event of defective performance, the Service Provider shall be obliged to provide guarantee in the case of the sale of new durable consumer goods (e.g. technical goods, tools, machines) listed in Government Decree 151/2003 (IX. 22.) on the mandatory warranty for certain durable consumer goods, as well as their accessories and components within the scope specified therein.

  1. What are your rights under guarantee and within what time limits?

    The scope of the Decree is limited to new products and applies only to products sold under a consumer contract concluded in Hungary and listed in the Annex to the Decree. Guarantee rights may only be claimed by a Customer who qualifies as a consumer.

    The Service Provider shall communicate the duration of the guarantee period for each product at the latest by means of the information on the warranty certificate (warranty ticket) provided at the time of receipt of the product by the Customer.

    The Service Provider shall be released from its guarantee obligation only if it proves that the cause of the defect arose after performance.

    Duration of the guarantee

    • one year for a sale price of HUF 10 000 or more but not more than HUF 100 000,

    • two years for a sale price exceeding HUF 100 000 but not exceeding HUF 250 000,

    • Three years above the sale price of HUF 250 000.

    Failure to meet the above deadlines will result in the loss of rights. The guarantee period does not include the part of the repair period during which you cannot use the product as intended.

    The guarantee period starts on the date of delivery of the consumer goods to you or, if the installation is carried out by the Service Provider or its agent, on the date of installation. If you put the consumer goods into service more than six months after delivery, the warranty period shall start on the date of delivery of the consumer goods.

    In the event of replacement (repair) of the product or part of the product, the guarantee period starts anew for the replaced (repaired) product (part of the product) and for the defect resulting from the repair.

  2. Claims that may be asserted under a guarantee

    In the event of a defect covered by the guarantee, you can claim:

    • in the first place, at your discretion, repair or replacement, unless the chosen guarantee claim is impossible to be fulfilled or would result in disproportionate additional costs for the Service Provider compared to the fulfilment of the other guarantee claim, taking into account the value of the Product in its original condition, the seriousness of the breach of contract and the damage caused to you by the fulfilment of the guarantee claim.
    • at your option, request a proportionate reduction in the purchase price, have the defect repaired or replaced by another party at the Service Provider's expense, or withdraw from the contract, if the Service Provider has not undertaken to repair or replace the defect, cannot fulfil this obligation within a reasonable period of time, without prejudice to your interests, or if your interest in repair or replacement has ceased. There is no right of withdrawal for minor defects.
  3. Defects precluding a guarantee claim

    A defect is not covered by the guarantee if the cause of the defect occurred after the product was delivered to you, for example:

    • improper installation (unless the installation was carried out by the Service Provider or its agent, or if the improper installation is due to a fault in the instruction manual)
    • misuse, failure to observe the instructions for use,
    • incorrect storage, incorrect handling, damage,
    • natural disasters or Act of God.
  4. Procedure in the event of a warranty/guarantee claim (in the case of a consumer)

    You may also, at your option, make your claim for repair directly to the Service Provider's seat, any of its branches or subsidiaries, or to the repair service indicated by the Service Provider on the guarantee ticket. You may submit your guarantee claims to the Service Provider using the contact details set out in Clause 12.

    The burden of proof of the conclusion of the contract is on you (invoice, receipt).

    The Service Provider shall bear the costs related to the fulfilment of the warranty obligation.

    The Service Provider shall keep a record of the warranty or guarantee claim notified by you to it and provide you with a copy of the record without delay and in a verifiable manner.

    Repairs or replacements must be carried out within a reasonable time, taking into account the characteristics of the product and its intended use, and without prejudice to your interests.

    If the Service Provider is not able to comment on the enforceability of a warranty or guarantee claim notified by you at the time of notification, it must notify you of its position within five working days in a verifiable manner.

    The Service Provider shall keep the minutes for three years from the date of their recording and present them to the supervisory authority.

    The Service Provider will endeavour to carry out the repair or replacement within a maximum of fifteen days. If the repair or replacement takes longer than fifteen days, the Service Provider shall inform you of the expected time for the repair or replacement. This information shall be provided, subject to your prior consent, by electronic means or by any other means which provides proof of receipt by the consumer.

    If the product cannot be replaced, the Service Provider must refund the purchase price indicated on the invoice or receipt presented by you within eight days. The eight-day time limit starts to run after the expiry of the 30-day time limit for rectification without result.

  5. Other rules for repair in case of compulsory guarantee

    In a contract between a consumer and a business, the parties may not conclude any agreement to the detriment of the consumer other than the provisions of Government Decree No. 45/2014 (26.II.).

    If during the warranty period:

    1. (a) the first time the product is repaired, the Service Provider finds that the product cannot be repaired, the Service Provider is obliged to replace the product within eight days, unless the consumer has agreed otherwise,

    2. (b) the product fails again after the Service Provider repaired it three times - unless you have agreed otherwise, or if you do not request a proportionate reduction of the purchase price and you as the consumer do not wish to repair the product or have the product repaired by a third party by the Service Provider's expense, the Service Provider must replace the product within eight days,

    3. (c) if the product has not been repaired within 30 days of the date on which you notify the Service Provider of the need for repair, the Service Provider shall replace the product within eight days of the expiry of the 30-day period, unless you have provided otherwise.

    If the consumer goods are defective for the fourth time, you are entitled to ask the Service Provider to repair the goods, or to request the Service Provider to reduce the purchase price proportionately, or to repair the consumer goods at the Service Provider's expense. If you do not exercise these rights, or if you have not made a declaration to this effect, the Service Provider must replace the goods within 8 days or, if this is not possible, reimburse you the sales price indicated on the invoice or receipt within 8 days.

    During the repair, only new parts may be installed in the Product.

    If the Service Provider fulfils its warranty or guarantee obligations in a way other than the right you wish to enforce, the reasons for this must be stated in the minutes.

    In the event of a replacement (repair) of the Product or part of the Product, the guarantee period shall start anew for the replaced (repaired) Product (part of the Product) and for the defect resulting from the repair.

    Request for replacement within three working days

    If you request a replacement within three working days of purchase (installation) due to a defect in the Product, the Service Provider cannot claim disproportionate additional costs, but is obliged to replace the Product, provided that the defect prevents its proper use.

    Prohibition of parallel enforcement

    However, you do not have the right to make a warranty claim and a guarantee claim or a product warranty claim and a guarantee claim for the same defect at the same time.

    The guarantee does not affect your statutory rights, in particular your rights to claim for warranty, product warranty and damages.
