VI. DEFECT LIABILITY AND QUALITY WARRANTY

The Company is liable to the Submitter for the fact that the sold goods are in compliance with the Contract, especially that they do not have any defects. The Company is liable to the Submitter mainly for the fact that the goods have the characteristics, when being taken over, that were agreed by the Parties, and if such agreement is missing, the characteristics that the Company or a producer described or that the Submitter expected with respect to the nature of goods and based on the advertisement; that the goods are suitable for the purpose which the Submitter specifies for their usage or which the item of such kind is usually used for; that the goods are supplied in the corresponding quantity, at the corresponding rate or with the corresponding weight; and that the goods meet the requirements of legal regulations.
If any defect shows itself within six months after the takeover, it shall be deemed that the item was defective already when being taken over. The Submitter is entitled to apply a right from defect that incurs on goods within twenty-four months after the takeover.
The Company provides the Submitter with the quality warranty for 24 months after the takeover of goods. Based on the quality warranty, the Company guarantees to the Submitter that the goods shall be suitable for usage for the ordinary or agreed purpose or that the goods shall keep the ordinary or agreed characteristics within such period. The specification of the warranty period or use by date period on the packaging or in the advertisement has the same effects. If the Contract and warranty statement determine different warranty periods, the longest period shall apply. If the Parties agree on a different warranty period than marked on the packaging as a used by date period, the agreement of the Parties shall prevail.
The Submitter may apply the warranty claim by its sending to the registered office of the Company via mail or to the email address contact@gamedevarea.com. In case of the warranty claim the Submitter shall prove the origin of goods by submitting an invoice, Contract or order acceptance, eventually the warranty card if it was issued for the goods. If the Submitter is not able to submit the necessary documents, he/she is obliged to document the conclusion of the Contract in another demonstrable manner.
If the goods do not have the agreed or ordinary characteristics pursuant to Article VI.1 hereof, the Submitter may ask for supply of a new item without any defects, unless it is inappropriate with respect to the nature of a defect. However, if the defect affects only a part of the goods, the Submitter may require only exchange of such part; if this is not possible, the Submitter may withdraw from the Contract. However, if it is disproportionate with respect to the nature of a defect, mainly if the defect may be removed without undue delay, the Submitter is entitled to the removal of the defect free of charge. The Submitter has a right to the supply of new goods or to the exchange of a part even in case of a removable defect if the goods may not be used properly due to the repeated occurrence of the defect after its repair or due to a higher number of defects. In such case the Submitter is also entitled to withdraw from the Contract. If the Submitter does not withdraw from the Contract or does not apply the right to the supply of new goods without any defects, to the exchange of a part of goods, or to the repair of goods, the Submitter may require a reasonable discount. The Submitter is entitled to a reasonable discount even in case the Company is not able to supply new goods without any defects, exchange a part of goods, or repair the goods as well as in case the Company does not remedy the situation within a reasonable period or if the remedy would cause significant troubles to the Submitter.
If the warranty claim is applied, the Company is obliged to issue to the Submitter a confirmation stating when the Submitter applied the right, what the warranty claim is related to, and which manner of warranty claim settlement the Submitter requires. The Company is also obliged to issue a written document concerning the warranty claim settlement and containing the date and manner of settlement, including the confirmation on the repair made and its duration, eventually a written justification of the warranty claim denial.
The Submitter acknowledges that the warranty claim shall be settled latest within thirty (30) days after its application, in justified cases, especially if the more complex technical assessment of the condition of goods or services requires it. Otherwise, the Company shall settle the warranty claim immediately, in complex cases latest within three (3) working days after its application. The Company is obliged to inform the Submitter within such period also of the manner of warranty claim settlement. If the warranty claim is not settled within a thirty-day period, the Submitter has the same rights as in case of a defect that may not be removed. The Company is not liable for the data saved on the data media when removing the defect.
