V. COMPLAINTS AND WITHDRAWAL FROM THE CONTRACT ON THE TERRITORY OF THE EUROPEAN UNION BY CONSUMERS
28. Upon receipt of the goods, the Purchaser is obliged to immediately perform an inspection, and in the event that he finds visible defects such as broken integrity of the packaging, transport defects, or lack of accompanying documents, the Purchaser must immediately inform the carrier that is making the delivery.
29. In the event that there are defects or identified deficiencies in the package, in the presence of the courier or the person carrying out the delivery, the Purchaser must sign a protocol with the responsible person carrying out the delivery (e.g. delivery company) evidencing his denial to receive the shipment and to send this protocol to SCN at the following email address: info@s-c-nutrition.com
30. In the event that the Purchaser fails to inspect the goods upon delivery and, therefore, fails to make immediate claims to the person carrying out the delivery, the goods shall be considered approved and accepted, and the Purchaser shall lose the right to claim at a later stage.
31. In the event that a Consumer has voluntarily chosen a courier company with which SCN does not have a contractual relationship for the delivery of his order or has assigned such a courier company to return the goods back to SCN, the risk of loss or damage to the goods is entirely at the Purchaser’s expense according to Art. 103B paragraph 2 of the Consumer Protection Act and the Purchaser shall be entitled to submit his claims directly to the carrier,
32. A Consumer in the sense of the applicable EU legislation has the right to withdraw from an already concluded distance Contract without providing a reason within up to 14 days from the day of delivery of goods or the service, while it is necessary that within this time limit a record has to be made and sent (via a letter or an e-mail), informing SCN about the withdrawal from the Contract.
33. A Consumer who has exercised the right of withdrawal pursuant to the applicable legislation must return the goods to SCN within 7 calendar days of making the withdrawal and pay any transport costs for returning the goods according to Article 55 paragraph 2 of the Consumer Protection Act.
34. SCN shall refund the amount paid by the Consumer for the purchased product, including within 14 days from the date of notification of the Consumer‘s decision to withdraw from the contract. At its own discretion, SCN may cover the delivery costs for returning the products. SCN may withhold any repayment of sums to the Consumer under the previous sentence until it receives the goods or until the Consumer provides proof that it has sent the goods back that are sufficient for SCN, whichever occurs first.
35. The provisions of Art. 50 – 56 of the Consumer Protection Act, concerning the right of withdrawal by the Consumer shall not apply to contracts for the supply of sealed goods that are unsealed after their delivery and not may be returned for hygiene or health protection reasons, as well as for the delivery of goods which, after being delivered and due to their nature, have become mixed with other goods from which they cannot be separated.
36. SCN is not obliged to cover the additional costs of the Consumer if the Consumer explicitly chooses to use any other means of delivery for returning the goods other than the most economical, regular manner of delivery offered by SCN. The additional cost is calculated as a difference between the manner of delivery chosen by the Consumer and the most economical, regular manner of delivery offered by SCN.
37. The Purchaser takes note that if the purchased goods come with gifts, the deed of donation between the Purchaser and SCN is only valid for as long as the Purchaser does not withdraw from the purchase contract, in which case the deed of donation becomes void and the Purchaser is obliged to return the gifts that came with the purchased goods intended for return. In case the gifts are not returned together with the returned purchased goods, the value of these gifts will be considered as unjust enrichment of the Purchaser.
38. After fulfilling all the aforementioned conditions for returning the purchased goods, the Consumer becomes entitled to a refund of the amount paid for the returned goods, which will be refunded to the Consumer at the latest within 14 business days from the withdrawal from the contract. SCN is however not obliged to refund this payment until the returned goods are delivered by the Consumer, or until when the Consumer provides a proof of having sent the goods intended for return back to SCN. SCN is obliged to refund the amount equivalent to the price of the purchase in the same manner that was used by the Consumer upon the initial payment, unless the Consumer and SCN agree on a different manner of refunding, in which no additional fees are to be paid by SCN in order to complete this refund.
39. SCN warns that in case the goods returned upon the Consumer’s withdrawal from the Contract are damaged, worn, incomplete, without accompanying documentation (the original proof of purchase, warranty card, instructions for use, etc.), or returned without gifts provided with the purchase, SCN will claim the damage against the Consumer, possibly through the courts and a legal representative. SCN also warns that before each shipment of goods, they document the completeness and integrity of the shipped goods.
40. In case of the circumstances specified in Art. 28, Art. 29, and Art. 30 above, or loss of the goods, SCN shall not refund the amount paid for the goods and any, and all related costs.

42. Sale prices apply either during a predetermined amount of time or until the stock of a specified quantity runs out.
43. The original base price is the price of the product/service/license that the product or service was offered for by SCN before applying any particular sale bonuses and discounts related to marketing campaigns and other discounts in the operating e-shop, or the price of the product or service suggested by the manufacturer or the distributor, while the displayed price is always the price that better reflects the price level of the specific item on the market.
