No.: 10663649, with its registered office at Nyklíčkova 1014/26, Jinonice, 158 00 Praha 5 ( Provider) for the Customer and thus constitute, within the meaning of Section 1751 of Act No. 89/2012 Coll., the Civil Code (Civil Code), an integral part of the Purchase Agreement (Agreement ) concluded between the Provider and the Customer in the Czech or English language.
   2. The Provider is the provider of the Internet application, which is accessible at the Internet address https://lenkakerlicka.com (E-shop). The E-shop is mainly used for ordering goods that the Provider offers at a given moment in the E-shop interface (Goods). The presentation of the Goods in the E-shop does not constitute a legally binding offer. The E-shop is a non-binding online catalog, which is merely an offer for the Customer to place a binding order for the Goods. The Provider is not obliged to conclude a purchase agreement over the Goods.
   3. These Terms and Conditions apply similarly when placing an order via other means of remote communication (e.g. email) and, with certain variations, also when placing an order in person at the Provider’s store or outside the Provider’s store premises (filling in an order-form or purchasing on the spot), in particular by describing the order, filling in a paper order form, etc., unless otherwise specified.
2. Conclusion of the Agreement
   1. Ordering the Goods by the Customer is carried out by the Customer marking the selected Goods in the E-shop (by clicking on the “add to cart” button), filling in the correct data in the order form, selecting the preferred delivery and payment method from the offered options and sending the order (by clicking on the “order with obligation to pay” button) (Order). Before sending the Order, the Customer is allowed to check and, if necessary, modify the data in the Order. Upon receipt of the Order, the Provider shall immediately confirm the Order by email to the address provided by the Customer, thereby the Agreement between the Provider and the Customer is concluded. Together with the order acceptance, the Provider sends the current version of these Terms and Conditions to the Customer’s electronic address.
   2. The Customer acknowledges that the Provider is not obliged to conclude the agreement if the data in the order is incomplete or the Customer is a person who has previously substantially breached their obligations to the Provider. The Provider further reserves the right not to accept an order in the event of an obvious typographical error regarding the price, description or image of the Goods displayed in the E-shop.
   3. The Provider is always entitled, depending on the nature of the Order (quantity of goods, purchase price, estimated shipping costs), to ask the Customer for additional confirmation of the Order (for example, in writing or by telephone).
   4. The Customer agrees with the conclusion of the Agreement by remote means of communication. The costs of the means of remote communication are not charged by the Provider beyond the usual price and are borne by the Customer.
   5. If the Customer orders Goods that are not shown in the Provider’s offer and are to be manufactured or specially modified by the Provider for the Customer exclusively according to the Customer’s individual requirements, the Provider shall confirm the receipt of the Order to the Customer by e-mail and by e-mail send to the Customer a processing proposal. The Agreement is concluded only after mutually confirmed approval of the design of the Goods, the purchase price, any other terms of payment, and the process of production of the Goods.
   6. The Provider uses its own materials while producing the goods. The Provider shall only use material supplied by the Customer if it is technically possible and if the Customer expressly insists on the use of such materials. The Provider does not assume any liability for the quality of the material supplied by the Customer and its possible unsuitability for the production of jewelry, unless the unsuitability is obvious.
3. Price of the Goods, Payment and Delivery
   1. The Customer is obliged to pay the Provider for the Goods the price stated in the E-shop and the Order confirmation. The price of the Goods shall remain valid for as long as it is displayed in the E-shop.

   2. The prices of the Goods in the E-shop are inclusive of VAT, including all statutory charges. The delivery costs of the Goods vary according to the payment and delivery method chosen.
   3. The Customer selects the methods of payment and delivery during the creation of the Order from the options offered in the E-shop and is obliged to bear the costs of these listed options. In the case of non-cash payment, the Goods will be sent to the Customer only after the payment of the full price.
   4. The delivery time takes 4-6 weeks from payment of the price of the Goods. The Provider may extend the delivery time stated in the Order confirmation for reasons not caused by the Provider. The Customer shall be informed of the extension of the delivery time at the e-mail address or telephone number provided in the Order.
   5. If the Goods are not delivered to the Customer (or to a person designated by the Customer) for reasons on the Customer’s side (in particular failure to accept the Goods at the agreed time), the Customer is obliged to reimburse the costs associated with the repeated delivery of the Goods.
   6. A tax document – an invoice will be issued by the Provider to the Customer after payment of the price of the Goods and sent in an electronic form to the Customer’s e-mail address.
