6.      Returns

Pursuant to Act no. 102/2014 Z.z. About customer protection during the sale of products or providing services based on a contract signed at distance or a contract signed outside of the business premises of the seller and about changes and amendments of some acts, it is possible to withdraw from the contract within 14 days since the reception of the product or the service without the stating of a reason. The seller returns the consumer the price paid for the product or the deposit, which the consumer paid for the product no later than 14 days since the reception of the product. With withdrawal from the contract which subject is the sale of the product, the seller is not obliged to return the payments to the consumer sooner than the product has been received or the consumer doesn’t prove the sending of this product to the seller for example by showing a copy of the sending receipt of the post office. It is necessary to withdraw from the contract by provable means. After notice that you wish to withdraw from the contract we will send you a form that you will consequently send us to info@pilot-store.sk or by post to the address: Kupeckého 49, 90201 Pezinok, Slovakia. The consumer bears the costs of the return of the product. The consumer is obliged to send the product back or hand it over to the seller no later than 14 days since the day of withdrawal from the contract.

The possibility to return a product does not apply to legal persons and for personal pickup because of the following reasons:

Governing law

• Legal relations between the customer – consumer and the seller not guided by these terms and conditions are guided by the legal order of the Slovak republic, especially 40/1964 Z.z. of the Civil Code as amended and Act no. 102/2014 Z.z. about customer protection during the sale of products or providing services based on a contract signed at distance or a contract signed outside of the business premises of the seller and about changes and amendments of some acts.
• Legal relations between the customer – consumer and the seller not guided by these terms and conditions are guided by the legal order of the Slovak republic, especially Act no. 513/1991 Z.z. of the Commercial Code as amended.

With personal pick up the customer checks the product and has the right to not take it. However after taking it, this sale does not fall into the Act stated above and because of this it is not possible to withdraw the contract without any reason within 14 days.

• Returns procedures:
