§ 7 Complaint procedure

The Seller is obliged to provide goods that are free from defects. The legal basis for considering complaints are regulations of the Act of 23 April 1964 Civil Code, in particular Art. 556 – 576.
Complaints should be submitted to the Service Provider's address or at its registered office.
The product which is being complained against should be provided to the Service Provider together with the proof of purchase and a completed complaint form which is available at: www.pierrerene.pl.
The Service Provider shall consider the complaint within 14 days after the complaint submission date. If the complaint is accepted, the Service Provider shall repair or replace the defective product for a new and faultless product or refund the value of the purchased product.
A physical defect is a non-conformity of the item sold with the agreement, in particular if:

it has no properties which an item of this kind should have in connection with the purpose specified in the agreement or resulting from the circumstances or the intended use;
it has no properties which it should have in accordance with the Seller's assertions, including by presenting a sample or a model;
is not fit for the purpose about which the Client has informed the Seller upon the conclusion of the agreement an the Seller has not submitted any reservations about such an intended use;
the Client has received it in an unaltered condition.

The item sold has a physical defect, also if it has been installed or started improperly, if these activities were performed by the Seller or a third party which the Seller is responsible for or by the Client who followed the instructions received by the Seller.
The Seller shall not be responsible towards the Client who is a consumer for the fact that the item sold does not have the properties resulting from public assertions which are referred to in a Art. 556¹ § 2, if they did not know such assertions or, by a reasonable judgement, they could not have influenced the Client's decision about the conclusion of the sales agreement or if its content was corrected before the conclusion of the sales agreement.
If the Client is a consumer, a physical defect was found before one year following the day on which the sold item was released, it is assumed that the defect or its reason existed upon the transfer of risk on the Client.
A legal defect involves the sold item:

being the property of a third party,
being encumbered by third party rights,
is characterized by limitations in using or disposing it as a result of a decision or ruling of relevant authorities.

The Seller shall be liable under statutory warranty for physical defects of the products which existed the moment the risk was transferred to the Client or which resulted from a reason connected with the item sold at the same time.
If the item sold is defective, the Client may:

submit a declaration about price reduction; the reduced price should be at a proportion to the price resulting from the agreement at which the value of the defective item remains to the value of an item free from defects,
submit a declaration of withdrawing from the agreement, if the defect is material - unless the Seller immediately and without excessive inconvenience for the Client replaces the faulty item for an item that is free from defects or if the item is removed. This limitation shall not apply if the item has already been replaced or repaired by the Seller or the Seller did not fulfil its obligation to replace the item for one that is free from defects or to remove the defect.

If the Client is a consumer, instead of the removal of the defect as proposed by the Seller, they may demand:

that the item should be replaced for an item free from defects or instead of having the items replaced
demand that the defect should be removed, unless it is not possible to make the item comply with the agreement or it would require excessive costs as compared to the method proposed by the Seller. The assessment of the excessiveness of costs shall take into account the value of the item free from defects, the type and importance of the defect found and also takes into account the inconvenience the Client would be exposed to due to another method of satisfaction.

If the item sold is defective, the Client may demand that it should be replaced with an item which is free from defects or that the defect should be removed. The Seller shall be obliged to replace the item for one that is free from defects or remove the defect within reasonable time limits without excessive inconvenience for the Client.
The Seller may refuse to fulfil the Client's demand if it is impossible to repair the defective item using the method selected by the Client or, as compared to another possible method, the achievement of compliance with the agreement would require excessive costs. If the Client is an entrepreneur, the Seller may refuse to replace the item for one that is free from defects or to remove the defect also when the costs of fulfilling this obligation exceed the price of the item sold.
A Client who uses their statutory warranty for physical defects is obliged to provide the defective item to the place designated in the sales agreement and if such a place has not been specified in the agreement - to the place where the item was handed over to the Client. If, due to the type of the item, the delivery of such an item would be too difficult, the Client is obliged to make the item available to the Seller at the place where the item is located. The Seller shall cover the costs of replacement or repair. The Seller is obliged to accept a defective item from the Client if it is replaced for an item that is free from defects or to withdraw from the agreement.
If the Client who is a consumer has demanded that the item should be replaced or the defect should be removed or has submitted a statement on reducing the price, by specifying the amount by which the price should be reduced and the Seller has not responded to this demand within fourteen days, it shall be concluded that it regards the demand as justified.
If it was reserved in the agreement that the items sold shall be delivered in parts and the Seller, despite the Client's demand, has not provided the same quantity of items that are free from defects, the Client may also withdraw from the agreement regarding the items which are to be delivered later.
If the Seller delays with the collection of items, the Client may send them at the Seller's cost and risk.
The Seller shall be liable under statutory warranty if the physical defect is found before two years have expired following the day on which the item was provided to the Client. A claim to remove a defect or replace an item sold for one that is free from defects is subject to a time limit of one year, counting from the day on which the defect is found. If the Client is a consumer, the time limit may end before the end of the time limit specified in the previous sentence.
Within the time limits specified in point 20 the Client may submit a declaration of withdrawal from the agreement or price reduction due to a defect of the item sold. If the Client demanded that the item should be replaced for one that is free from defects, the time limit for the submission of declaration of withdrawal from the agreement or price reduction begins from the ineffective expiry of the time limit for the replacement of the item or defect removal.
If one of the rights resulting from the statutory warranty is asserted before a court or an arbitration court, the time limit for the performance of other rights the Client is entitled to for this reason is suspended until the procedure is completed in a binding manner. The provision in the previous sentence shall apply appropriately to a mediation procedure, however, the time limit for the execution of other rights resulting from the statutory warranty begins on the day the court refuses to approve the settlement agreement concluded before the mediator or ineffective termination of mediation.
The expiry of the time limit for finding a defect does not exclude the rights resulting from statutory warranty, if the defect was fraudulently concealed by the Seller. If the best-before date specified by the Seller or the manufacturer expires two years after providing the item to the Client, the Seller shall be liable under statutory warranty for physical defects found in this item before the expiry of this time limit.
