We guarantee the customer that the goods are free of defects upon receipt. Specifically, we warrant that at the time the item was taken over:

2.3.2 the defect arose due to wear and tear caused by normal use, or it results from the nature of the goods,
2.3.3 the defect was caused by the customer due to improper use, storage, incorrect maintenance, interference by the customer, or mechanical damage, all occurring under conditions that do not comply with specified temperature, dust, humidity, or other environmental influences as directly determined by us or the manufacturer, or as stipulated by legal regulations,

3. RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE CUSTOMER RELATED TO RECEIPT OF THE GOODS
3.1 Check the contents of our package.
The customer is obliged to inspect the goods upon receipt and verify their properties (in particular, whether the customer received the correct type of goods, whether the goods have the agreed quality, and whether the packaging contains everything it should according to the instructions).
3.2 When you cannot claim a defect.
You are not entitled to rights from defective performance if the defect:
3.2.1 was apparent with the exercise of usual care at the time of concluding the purchase contract, or
3.2.2 if the goods were delivered after the conclusion of the purchase contract, then at the moment of receipt, or
3.2.3 if you knew about the defect before receiving the goods, or
3.2.4 if you caused the defect yourself.
4. IF THE GOODS WERE DAMAGED DURING TRANSPORT
4.1 Inspect the packaging before accepting the goods.
When receiving the shipment from the carrier, check the integrity of the packaging. By accepting the shipment, you confirm that you have received it without visible defects. If the packaging is damaged, immediately inform the carrier and prepare a damage report. The carrier will keep the shipment. This is the simplest way to handle a claim for a damaged shipment—the shipment will be returned to us by the carrier and a new shipment will be sent to you promptly.
4.2 You discover damage to the goods only after unpacking. What to do?
If you notice damage to the contents only after receiving and unpacking the shipment, notify us immediately, no later than five (5) days from receipt, via the claims form. Include your order number, preferably the shipment tracking number (found on the shipment label), the email used to place the order, and a list of the damaged items. Please note that if you report the claim on the sixth (6th) day or later after receipt, the carrier is unlikely to recognize the claim. Late claims may cause damage to us (the damaged shipment may not be reimbursed by the carrier), and we reserve the right to recover such damages from you. Please keep the shipment and take photographic evidence showing the damaged goods, packaging, and filling material clearly.
4.3 What happens after you notify us?
After submitting the claims form for damaged goods, you will receive confirmation by email. You can contact us anytime by phone at +420 603 141 669 or by email at info@canushka.cz to verify that your claim is being processed.
5. IF YOU RECEIVED INCORRECTLY SENT GOODS
5.1 How to proceed and what information we need?
If you received incorrect goods, wrong quantity, or a different color variation, contact us via the claims form sent to info@canushka.cz. Provide your order number and describe the error. We strive to avoid such mistakes and carefully check the goods before shipment.
5.2 What happens next?
After submitting the claims form, you will receive confirmation by email. We will review your case as soon as possible and contact you to agree on further steps.

6.1 When to claim a defective product.
You must report a defect to us immediately and without undue delay after it appears.
6.2 What happens after 24 months?
You may assert your rights regarding defects in consumer goods within 24 months from the date of receipt. After this period expires without successful claim, you lose the right to assert defects with us. This period is extended by the time during which you could not use the goods due to a justified claim process.
6.3 Exceptions for the 24-month period.
You may report defects within 24 months except for goods where the packaging, label, instructions, or advertising (in accordance with applicable laws) states the usable period (e.g., minimum durability / "use by" date). For such goods, warranty provisions apply.
6.4 Period to assert defect rights vs. product lifespan.
The period for asserting defect rights must not be confused with the product’s lifespan, i.e., the expected time the product will last with proper use considering its character, properties, intended use, and usage intensity.
6.5 How to report defects.
To assert your rights, fill in and submit the claims form specifying at least:
-
6.5.1 Type of goods;
-

-
6.5.3 Whether the claim is within the statutory period for asserting defects;
-
6.5.4 Description of the defect and how it manifests;
-
6.5.5 Preferred resolution method (repair, replacement, refund), noting that you cannot change this choice without our prior consent;
-
6.5.6 Your identification and contact details (phone, email) necessary for claim processing.
6.6 Confirmation of claim receipt.
After submitting the claim form, you will receive an email confirmation from us. The claim’s submission date is considered the moment we receive your claim.
6.7 Where to claim the goods.
You can also assert your claim in person at the dispatch location of Janusherbs s.r.o., Na Pavelce 79, 763 14 Zlín during business days (please schedule an appointment). A claims form will be completed on site with your description of the defect, requested resolution, and your contact details.
6.8 Attachments required.
You must attach a copy of the proof of payment (invoice) and the completed online claims form (including defect description, resolution request, and contact information).
6.9 Returning the goods for claim processing.
The claim is considered properly submitted if the returned goods are complete and comply with general hygiene principles. You must return the goods cleaned and free of any dirt, hygienically safe. We reserve the right to refuse acceptance of goods that do not meet these hygiene requirements.
6.10 Who bears the cost of returning the goods?
If you request defect removal (repair or replacement), we cover the cost of shipping the claimed goods back to us. After prior agreement, we will arrange transportation by providing a return label or by using our contracted carrier. Please note that goods returned cash on delivery or by any other method at our expense will not be accepted and will be returned to you at your cost.
6.11 Confirmation of claim receipt and assessment.
After receiving the returned goods, you will be sent confirmation of receipt and claim details by email. The defect assessment will be performed promptly, and you will be informed of the claim’s outcome within three (3) working days (not counting the time needed for expert evaluation).
6.12 Closing the claim process.
If the goods are found defective, the claim process will be completed within thirty (30) days from the assertion of defect rights. In justified cases, a longer deadline may be agreed upon with you. We are entitled to request additional documentation from you as soon as possible.
6.13 If the goods are not found defective.
If the goods are not found defective, you will be informed and an individual solution will be discussed.
7. METHOD OF HANDLING COMPLAINTS
7.1 What will affect my options?
You will have the right to request the removal of the defect. You may choose from the following:
7.1.1 repair of the item;
7.1.2 delivery of a new item; or
7.1.3 delivery of the missing part.
Your request should not be unreasonable. If the repair represents significant difficulties for us or is disproportionate considering the value of the item and the significance of the defect, we will inform you accordingly. Similarly, if we consider your request for delivery of a new item to be unreasonable in relation to the defect or value of the goods, we will inform you.
7.2 In case of material breach of the purchase contract:
If the defect constitutes a material breach of the purchase contract, you will have the right to withdraw from the contract or request a reasonable discount on the purchase price.
7.3 When is it possible to request a refund of the purchase price?
In certain situations, it will be possible to withdraw from the contract and request a refund. This will not be possible if the defect is not significant. Situations allowing you to withdraw and request a refund include:
7.3.1 we refuse to remove the defect or do not repair it within a reasonable time;
7.3.2 from our statement or other circumstances it is apparent that the defect will not be removed within a reasonable time or without considerable inconvenience to the buyer;
7.3.3 the defect recurs repeatedly; or
7.3.4 the defect constitutes a material breach of the purchase contract.
7.4 When is it possible to request a reasonable discount?
Similarly, you may request a reasonable discount in situations including:
7.4.1 refusal to remove the defect or failure to repair within a reasonable time;
7.4.2 obvious inability to remove the defect in a reasonable time or without significant inconvenience;
7.4.3 repeated occurrence of the defect; or
7.4.4 material breach of the purchase contract.
7.5 You must inform us of your chosen way of handling the complaint. If you do not, we will ask you.
You are obliged to inform us of the chosen remedy upon notification of the defect or without undue delay thereafter. You cannot change your chosen remedy without our consent; this does not apply if you request a repair and it turns out to be impossible.
7.6 Return of original goods.
When resolving a complaint by delivery of new goods, you are obliged to return the originally delivered goods to us (unless otherwise agreed).
