Due to the open nature of this website and the possibility of errors in storage and transmission of digital information, we do not warrant the accuracy and security of the information transmitted or obtained by means of this website, unless otherwise indicated expressly on this website. All product descriptions, information and materials shown on this website are provided "as is", with no express or implied warranties on the same, except those legally established. In this sense, if you are contracting as a consumer or user, we are obliged to deliver goods that are in conformity with the Contract, being liable to you for any lack of conformity which exists at the time of delivery. To the extent permitted by law, we exclude all warranties, except those that may not be excluded legitimately in favor of consumers and users.

7.1 Lack of Conformity

According to the related sections of the Civil Code of the Czech Republic, the seller is liable to the consumer that the product(s) is/are free from defects upon receipt. In particular, the seller is liable to the consumer that, at the moment the product(s) is/are received by the consumer:

  • The product has the characteristics agreed by the parties or if no contract is reached, the characteristics described on the Website or reasonably expected by the consumer with reference to the nature of the goods and related advertisement;
  • The product can be used for the purposes stated by the Seller or for the purposes for which the product of that kind is usually used;
  • The product is provided in the corresponding quantity, measurement or weight. (Please note that as for our jewelry items, each jewel is handcrafted on demand. For this reason, the carat weight, stone or jewel size and color may vary slightly from that indicated on the Website and from one creation to the next);
  • The product complies with the requirements stipulated by law.

If the product becomes defective within six months after receipt, the product is deemed being defective already upon receipt. Unless stipulated otherwise, the consumer is entitled to claim defective consumer goods within 24 month after receipt. This does not apply to:

  • Discount related defects;
  • Usual wear and tear;
  • Defects caused by ordinary use or wear and tear and evident at the moment of receipt by the consumer;
  • Defects arising from the nature of good.

Improper performance cannot be claimed if the consumer was aware about the defect before accepting the product or if the defect in question was caused by the consumer. The consumer is not entitled to claim guarantee with reference to a defect caused by outer circumstances after the risk of damage has passed to the consumer.

7.2 Material (substantial) Breach

If improper performance constitutes a substantial breach of the Contract, you are entitled to:

a) Removal of the defect by delivery of new defect-free goods or by delivery of missing goods, in case of a component part affected by the defect, you can only claim that the component part in question be replaced;
b) Removal of the defect by repairing the goods;
c) An adequate discount from the purchase price or
d) Withdraw from the contract.

The consumer shall inform the seller about the selected option upon reporting the defect or without unnecessary delay after the defect has been reported. If the consumer fails to select the option in due time, the rights as in the case of a minor breach will apply in accordance with the provision of Section (§) 2107 of the Civil Code.

7.3 Minor Breach

Provided the defective performance constitutes a minor breach of contract, you are entitled to defect removal or to an adequate discount from the purchase price.

In case of exercising the right to defect removal by repairing of the goods, you are entitled to the defect being removed on time, free of charge and in a proper manner. The seller is obliged to remove the claimed defect without unnecessary delay, no later than within 30 days from the moment the claim was made. The removable defects are such defects that may be removed by repair without deterioration of the looks, function and quality of the product.

A change in goods (properties) may not be considered as the defect of the goods if it occurred in the course of the warranty period due to wear-out, improper use, lack or absence of proper maintenance, due to the natural changes in material that the goods are made from, due to any damage caused by external factors or any other improper interference by the customer or by a third party.

7.4 Gift

You acknowledge that if the goods are delivered along with any gifts, we (the seller) and you (the consumer) enter into a contract of donation on the condition that such contract of donation terminates as soon as the consumer enjoys its right and withdraws from the purchase agreement within a period of 14 days whereby the consumer must return the goods in question along with the gifts and everything obtained in relation thereto; if not returned, the same will be considered unjust enrichment. If the profits acquired by unjust enrichment cannot be returned, we may and can claim monetary compensation in the amount of ordinary price.

7.5 Returns of defective product(s)

The claim must be made without unnecessary delay, immediately after the defect has been discovered. A potential delay while continuing to use the goods may cause deepening of the defect, deterioration of the goods and may be the reason why the claim is rejected.

You shall contact us by sending an email to contact@bhappybrand.com, providing the product details, specifying the way the defect has manifested and indicating the option for the right of liability for defects they are exercising. The notice of claim must be accompanied by the e-ticket that was sent together with the Order Confirmation, the supporting document proving receipt of the goods, or alternatively by the warranty card provided it was issued.
