Accordingly, these GTC contain the rights and obligations concerning you and us, the conditions for the conclusion of the contract, the deadlines for performance, the delivery and payment terms, the rules of liability, as well as the conditions for exercising the right of withdrawal.

The technical information necessary for using the Website, which is not included in these GTC, is provided by other information available on the Website.

You are obliged to familiarize yourself with the provisions of these GTC before finalizing your order. 

The language of the contract, the form of the contract

The language of the contracts subject to these GTC is Hungarian.

Contracts subject to this GTC are not considered written contracts and are not registered by the Seller.

Prices

Prices are in forints and include 27% VAT. It cannot be excluded that the Seller may modify prices for business policy reasons. Price modifications do not apply to contracts already concluded. If the Seller has incorrectly indicated the price and an order has been received for the Goods but no contract has yet been concluded between the parties, the Seller shall proceed according to the "Procedure in case of incorrect price" section of the GTC.

Procedure in case of incorrect price

An obviously incorrectly indicated price is considered:

  • Price of 0 Ft,
  • Price reduced by discount but incorrectly indicating the discount (e.g., for a 1000 Ft Good, offering it at 500 Ft while showing a 20% discount).

In case of an incorrectly indicated price, the Seller offers the possibility to purchase the Goods at the actual price, based on which the Buyer can decide whether to order the Goods at the actual price or cancel the order without any adverse legal consequences.

Complaint handling and legal enforcement options

The consumer may submit their consumer complaints related to the Goods or the Seller’s activities at the following contact points:

  • Phone: +3670 400 2040
  • Internet address: https://www.masterworks.hu
  • E-mail: hello@masterworks.hu

The consumer may communicate their complaint to the business verbally or in writing, which relates to the conduct, activity, or omission of the business or a person acting on behalf or for the benefit of the business, directly connected to the distribution or sale of goods to consumers.

The business is obliged to immediately investigate and, if necessary, remedy the verbal complaint. If the consumer disagrees with the handling of the complaint, or if immediate investigation of the complaint is not possible, the business must promptly record the complaint and its related position in a report, and in the case of a verbally communicated complaint delivered in person, hand over a copy of the report to the consumer on site. In the case of a verbal complaint communicated by phone or other electronic communication service, the business must send the consumer a substantive response within 30 days at the latest – in accordance with the provisions for responses to written complaints – simultaneously with the substantive reply. Otherwise, the business must proceed as follows regarding written complaints. The business – unless otherwise provided by a directly applicable legal act of the European Union – is obliged to respond substantively in writing and take action to communicate it within thirty days of receipt. A shorter deadline may be set by law, and a longer deadline by statute. The business must justify its position if it rejects the complaint. The business is obliged to assign a unique identification number to verbal complaints communicated by phone or electronic communication service.

The minutes taken about the complaint must include the following:

  1. The consumer's name, address,
  2. The place, time, and manner of submitting the complaint,
  3. A detailed description of the consumer's complaint, a list of documents, papers, and other evidence presented by the consumer,
  4. The business's statement regarding its position on the consumer's complaint, if immediate investigation of the complaint is possible,
  5. The person recording the minutes and – except for verbal complaints communicated by phone or other electronic communication service – the consumer's signature,
  6. The place and time of recording the minutes,
  7. In the case of a verbal complaint communicated by phone or other electronic communication service, the unique identification number of the complaint.

The business is obliged to keep the minutes taken about the complaint and a copy of the response for three years and to present them to the supervisory authorities upon request.

In case of rejection of the complaint, the business is obliged to inform the consumer in writing about which authority or conciliation body they can initiate proceedings with, depending on the nature of the complaint. The information must also include the address, telephone, and internet contact details, as well as the mailing address of the competent authority or the conciliation body according to the consumer's place of residence or stay. The information must also cover whether the business uses the conciliation body procedure to resolve the consumer dispute. If a consumer dispute possibly existing between the Seller and the consumer is not resolved during negotiations, the following enforcement options are available to the consumer:

Consumer protection procedure

Complaints can be made to the consumer protection authorities. If the consumer notices a violation of their consumer rights, they are entitled to file a complaint with the consumer protection authority competent according to their place of residence. After the complaint is reviewed, the authority decides on conducting the consumer protection procedure. The first-instance consumer protection authority tasks are carried out by the metropolitan and county government offices competent according to the consumer's place of residence; their list can be found here: http://www.kormanyhivatal.hu/

Court procedure

The client is entitled to enforce their claim arising from the consumer dispute before the court in a civil procedure according to the provisions of Act V of 2013 on the Civil Code and Act CXXX of 2016 on the Code of Civil Procedure.

Conciliation body procedure

We inform you that you may file a consumer complaint against us. If your consumer complaint is rejected, you are entitled to turn to the Conciliation Body competent according to your place of residence or stay: the condition for initiating the conciliation body procedure is that the consumer attempts to resolve the dispute directly with the concerned enterprise. Upon the consumer's request, the procedure is competent before the conciliation body designated by the consumer in the request instead of the competent body.

The enterprise is subject to a cooperation obligation in the conciliation body procedure.

Within this framework, enterprises have the obligation to send a response upon the conciliation body's request, and the obligation to appear before the conciliation body is also recorded as a duty ("ensuring the participation of a person authorized to conclude an agreement at the hearing").

If the enterprise's registered office or place of business is not registered in the county according to the chamber operating the territorially competent conciliation body, the enterprise's cooperation obligation extends to offering the possibility of a written agreement in accordance with the consumer's claim.

In case of violation of the above cooperation obligation, the consumer protection authority has jurisdiction, based on which mandatory fines must be imposed for unlawful conduct of enterprises due to the legislative change, and there is no possibility to waive the fine. In addition to the Consumer Protection Act, the relevant provisions of the Act on Small and Medium-sized Enterprises have also been amended, so fines cannot be omitted for small and medium-sized enterprises either.

The amount of the fine for small and medium-sized enterprises can range from 15,000 to 500,000 forints, while for non-small and medium-sized enterprises subject to the Accounting Act with an annual net revenue exceeding 100 million forints, it can range from 15,000 forints to 5% of the enterprise's annual net revenue, but not exceeding 500 million forints. With the introduction of the mandatory fine, the legislator aims to emphasize cooperation with conciliation bodies and ensure the active participation of enterprises in the conciliation body procedure.

The conciliation board has jurisdiction over the out-of-court settlement of consumer disputes. The task of the conciliation board is to attempt to establish an agreement between the parties to resolve the consumer dispute, and if unsuccessful, to decide the case to ensure the simple, fast, effective, and cost-efficient enforcement of consumer rights. The conciliation board provides advice on the rights of the consumer and the obligations of the consumer upon request by the consumer or the business.

The conciliation board procedure is initiated at the consumer's request. The application must be submitted in writing to the president of the conciliation board: the requirement of writing can be fulfilled by letter, telegram, telex or fax, as well as by any other means that allows the recipient to store the data addressed to them for the duration necessary for the purpose of the data and to display the stored data in unchanged form and content. The application must include

  1. the consumer's name, residence or place of stay,
  2. the name, registered office or affected site of the business involved in the consumer dispute,
  3. if the consumer requests jurisdiction, the designation of the board requested instead of the competent conciliation board,
  4. a brief description of the consumer's position, the supporting facts and their evidence,
  5. the consumer's statement that the consumer has directly attempted to resolve the dispute with the concerned business
  6. the consumer's statement that no other conciliation board procedure has been initiated in the matter, no mediation procedure has started, no lawsuit has been filed, and no request for payment order has been submitted,
  7. the motion for the board's decision,
  8. the consumer's signature.

The application must include the document or its copy (extract) to which the consumer refers as evidence, in particular the written statement of the business rejecting the complaint, or in its absence, other written evidence available to the consumer regarding the attempt to conduct the prescribed consultation.

If the consumer acts through an authorized representative, the authorization must be attached to the application.

Online dispute resolution platform

The European Commission has created a website where consumers can register, thus enabling them to resolve their online purchase-related disputes through this platform by filling out a request, avoiding court proceedings. This way, consumers can enforce their rights without, for example, distance preventing them from doing so.

If you wish to file a complaint regarding Goods or services purchased online and do not necessarily want to go to court, you can use the online dispute resolution tool.
On the portal, you and the trader against whom you have lodged a complaint can jointly select the dispute resolution body to be entrusted with handling the complaint.

The online dispute resolution platform is available here: https://webgate.ec.europa.eu/odr/main/?event=main.home.show&lng=HU

Fogyasztó Barát evaluations

We inform Customers that the Seller uses the Fogyasztó Barát evaluation system on its Website. The evaluation system allows rating not individual Goods but the Seller (the webshop), and the following technical measures in the evaluation system ensure that only actual buyers can submit evaluations:

  1. The system operates independently of the webshop using it in such a way that the evaluation WIDGET opens after the purchase, and the submitted evaluations are stored by Fogyasztó Barát (JUTASA Ltd.) in its own system.
  2. Submitting an opinion is only possible in such a way that the actual buyer can write an opinion in an email sent to the email address provided to Fogyasztó Barát after the purchase.

The webshop using the evaluation system has no technical possibility to delete either the evaluations or the opinions.

As a result of the above, the system only contains evaluations and opinions from real buyers, and the system does not differentiate between positive and negative opinions; it displays them equally.

Partial invalidity, code of conduct

If any point of the GTC is legally incomplete or invalid, the other points of the contract shall remain in effect, and the provisions of the relevant laws shall apply instead of the invalid or defective part.

The Seller does not have a code of conduct according to the law prohibiting unfair commercial practices against consumers.

Information on the operation of Products containing digital elements and the applicable technical protection measures

The availability of the servers providing the data displayed on the website is over 99.9% annually. Regular backups are made of the entire data content, so in case of problems, the original data content can be restored. The data displayed on the website is stored in MSSQL and MySQL databases. Sensitive data is stored with appropriately strong encryption, and hardware support built into the processor is used for encoding.

Information on the essential characteristics of the Products

On the website, we provide information about the essential characteristics of the Products available for purchase in the descriptions of the individual Products.

Correction of data entry errors – Responsibility for the accuracy of the provided data

During the order process, before finalizing the order, you continuously have the opportunity to modify the data you have entered (by clicking the back button in the browser, the previous page opens, so the entered data can be corrected even if you have already moved to the next page). Please note that it is your responsibility to ensure that the data you provide is entered accurately, as invoicing and delivery of the Product are based on the data you provide. Please note that an incorrectly provided email address or a full mailbox associated with the email account may result in the confirmation not being delivered and may prevent the contract from being concluded. If the Buyer finalizes the order and discovers an error in the provided data, they must initiate the modification of the order as soon as possible. The Buyer can notify the Seller of the incorrect order modification by sending an email from the email address provided at the time of ordering or by phone call.

Using the website

Purchase does not require registration.

Selecting the Product

By clicking on the product categories on the website, you can select the desired product family and within it the individual Products. By clicking on the individual Products, you will find the Product's photo, article number, description, and price. In case of purchase, you must pay the price listed on the website. 

Add to Cart

After selecting the Product, you can add any number of Products to the cart by clicking the "Add to Cart" button without incurring any purchase or payment obligation, as adding to the cart does not constitute an offer.

We recommend that you add the Product to the cart even if you are not sure whether you want to purchase the given Product, because this way you can easily see with one click which Products you have selected at the moment, and you can view and compare them on one screen. The contents of the Cart can be freely modified until the order is finalized – until the "Finalize Order" button is pressed – Products can be removed from the cart at will, new Products can be added to the cart as desired, and the desired quantity can be changed.

If you add the selected Goods to the Cart, a separate window will pop up with the message "The Goods have been added to the cart." If you do not want to select more Goods, click the "Proceed to Cart" button! If you want to view the selected Goods again or add more Goods to the cart, click the "Back to Goods" button!

View Cart

While using the website, you can check the contents of the cart at any time by clicking the "View Cart" icon at the top of the website. Here you can remove selected Goods from the cart or change the quantity of the Goods. After pressing the "Update Cart" button, the system will display information corresponding to the data you changed, including the price of the Goods added to the cart.

If you do not wish to select and add more Goods to the cart, you can continue shopping by pressing the "Order" button.

Providing Customer Data

After pressing the "Order" button, the contents of the cart will appear, as well as the total purchase price you have to pay for the selected Goods. In the "Shipping Service" box, you must indicate whether you wish to pick up the ordered Goods personally (personal pickup) or request delivery. In case of delivery, the system will indicate the delivery fee, which you are obliged to pay when ordering. 

In the "User Data" text box, you can provide your email address; in the "Billing Information" text box, your full name, address, and phone number. The system automatically stores the data provided during "Billing Information" in the "Shipping Information" text box. If you want the shipment to a different address, please uncheck the box. In the "Comment" text box, you can optionally provide additional information.

Order Overview

After filling in the above text boxes, you can continue the ordering process by clicking the "Continue to the next step" button, or you can cancel/correct the data entered so far by clicking the "Cancel" button and return to the contents of the Cart. By clicking the "Continue to the next step" button, you will arrive at the "Order Overview" page. Here you can see a summary of the data you previously provided, including the contents of the Cart, user, billing and shipping information, and the amount you have to pay (you cannot change these data here, only by clicking the "Back" button). 

Finalizing the order (making an offer)

If you have verified that the contents of the cart correspond to the goods you wish to order and that your data is correct, you can finalize your order by clicking the "Pay" button. The information provided on the website does not constitute an offer to conclude a contract by the Seller. In the case of orders subject to these GTC, you are considered the offeror. 

By pressing the "Pay" button, you expressly acknowledge that your offer must be considered made, and your statement – in case of confirmation by the Seller according to these GTC – entails a payment obligation. Your offer is binding for 48 hours. If the Seller does not confirm your offer within 48 hours according to these general terms and conditions, you are released from the obligation of the offer.

Order processing, contract conclusion

Order processing takes place in two steps. You can place an order at any time. First, you will receive an automatic feedback about the order, which only records the fact that your order has been received through the website, but this confirmation does not qualify as acceptance of your offer. If you notice that the automatic confirmation email contains incorrect data about you (e.g., name, delivery address, phone number, etc.), you are obliged to immediately notify us of this fact by email, providing the correct data at the same time. If you do not receive the automatic confirmation email within 24 hours of placing your order, please contact us, as it is possible that your order was not received by our system due to technical reasons.

After you send your offer, the Seller will confirm your offer by a second email. The contract is concluded when the confirmation email sent by the Seller becomes accessible to you in your email system (second confirmation).

Payment methods


Bank transfer

You can also settle the price of the goods by bank transfer.

Simple bank card payment (OTP group)

The provisions of these GTC also apply to purchases outside Hungary, with the interpretation that a buyer is a consumer who is a citizen of a member state, or has residence in a member state, or is a business established in a member state, and who purchases goods or services within the European Union exclusively for end-use or acts with such intent. A consumer is a natural person acting for purposes outside their commercial, industrial, craft, or professional activity.

The primary language of communication and purchase is Hungarian; the Seller is not obliged to communicate with the Buyer in the language of the Buyer's member state.

The Seller is not obliged to comply with non-contractual requirements under the national law of the Buyer's member state related to the Goods, such as labeling or sector-specific requirements, nor to inform the Buyer about these requirements.

When using the electronic payment solution, payment is made in the currency specified by the Seller.

The Seller may withhold the delivery of the Goods until it is verified that the payment of the Goods' price and the shipping fee has been successfully and fully completed using the electronic payment solution (including cases where the Buyer pays by bank transfer in the currency of their member state and due to conversion and bank fees, the Seller does not receive the full purchase price). If the full price has not been paid, the Seller may request the Buyer to complete the payment.

The Seller provides the delivery options available to Hungarian Buyers also to non-Hungarian Buyers for the handover of the Goods.

If the Buyer may request delivery of the Goods within Hungary or to any other European Union member state according to the GTC, this may also be requested by non-Hungarian Buyers using any delivery method specified in the GTC.

If the Buyer may choose personal pickup of the Goods at the Seller according to the GTC, this option is also available to non-Hungarian Buyers.

Otherwise, the Buyer may request to arrange the delivery of the Goods abroad at their own expense. This right does not apply to Hungarian Buyers.

The Seller will fulfill the order after the payment of the shipping fee; if the Buyer does not pay the shipping fee to the Seller or does not arrange their own shipping by the pre-agreed date, the Seller will terminate the contract and refund the prepaid purchase price to the Buyer.

Requirements for conformity of performance


Requirements for conformity of performance generally for goods sold under consumer contracts and goods containing digital elements

The Goods and the performance must comply with the requirements set out in Government Decree 373/2021 (VI.30.) at the time of performance.  

In order for the performance to be considered in conformity with the contract, the Goods subject to the contract

  • the public statement was not known and did not have to be known
  • the public statement was already properly corrected by the time of contract conclusion or
  • the public statement could not have influenced the contracting party's decision to enter into the contract.

Requirements for proper performance in the sale of goods under a consumer contract

The Seller is in breach if the defect in the goods results from improper installation, provided that  

a) the installation is part of the sales contract and was performed by the Seller or carried out under the Seller's responsibility; or

b) the installation was to be performed by the consumer, and improper installation is due to deficiencies in the installation instructions provided by the Seller - and in the case of goods containing digital elements, by the provider of the digital content or digital service.

If the sales contract stipulates that the goods are installed by the Seller, or the installation is carried out under the Seller's responsibility, the performance shall be considered completed when the installation is finished.

If the sales contract for goods containing digital elements provides for continuous provision of digital content or digital services over a specified period, the Seller is liable for defects related to the digital content of the goods if the defect occurs or becomes apparent within two years from the delivery of the goods in the case of continuous service not exceeding two years; or

Requirements for proper performance in the case of goods containing digital elements sold under a consumer contract

In the case of goods containing digital elements, the Seller must ensure that the consumer is notified of updates to the digital content of the goods or related digital services - including security updates - necessary to maintain the conformity of the goods, and must ensure that the consumer actually receives them.  

The Seller's obligation to make the update available, if the sales contract

  • if the digital content involves continuous provision over a specified period, then for continuous service not exceeding two years, it must be provided for a two-year period from the delivery of the goods.

If the consumer does not install the provided updates within a reasonable time, the Seller is not liable for defects in the goods if such defects arise solely from the lack of application of the relevant update, provided that

a) the Seller informed the consumer about the availability of the update and the consequences of the consumer's failure to install it; and

b) the consumer's failure to install the update or incorrect installation of the update by the consumer cannot be attributed to deficiencies in the installation instructions provided by the Seller.

Defective performance cannot be established if the consumer was separately informed at the time of concluding the contract that a specific property of the goods differs from what is described here, and the consumer expressly accepted this deviation separately when concluding the sales contract.

Information on product liability and warranty for conformity of goods

This section of the consumer information was prepared based on the authorization of Section 9 (3) of Government Decree 45/2014 (II.26.) and taking into account Annex 3 of Government Decree 45/2014 (II.26.).

Warranty


In what cases can you exercise your warranty rights?

In case of defective performance by the Seller, you may enforce warranty claims against the Seller according to the Civil Code and, in the case of a consumer contract, the provisions of Government Decree 373/2021 (VI.30.).

What rights do you have based on your warranty claim?


General rules of warranty rights

You may exercise the following warranty claims at your choice:

You may request repair or replacement, except if fulfilling the claim you chose among these is impossible or would cause disproportionate additional costs to the Seller compared to fulfilling another claim. If you did not request or could not request repair or replacement, you may demand a proportional reduction of the price or repair the defect yourself or have it repaired by someone else at the Seller's expense, or – as a last resort – withdraw from the contract.

You may switch from one chosen warranty right to another, but you bear the cost of switching, except if it was justified or caused by the Seller.

In the case of a consumer contract, it is presumed, unless proven otherwise, that a defect recognized within one year from the time of delivery of the goods and goods containing digital elements already existed at the time of delivery, except if this presumption is incompatible with the nature of the goods or the nature of the defect.

In the case of Used Goods, warranty and guarantee rights generally differ from the standard rules. Defective performance can also be discussed in the case of Used Goods, but the circumstances under which the Buyer could have expected certain defects must be taken into account. Due to wear and tear, the occurrence of certain defects becomes increasingly frequent, and it cannot be assumed that a used Good can have the same quality as a newly purchased one. Accordingly, the Buyer can only enforce warranty rights for deficiencies that exceed defects resulting from usage and arose independently of them. If the used Good is defective and the Buyer, classified as a Consumer, was informed of this at the time of purchase, the Service Provider has no responsibility regarding the known defect.

For buyers who are not consumers, the deadline for enforcing warranty rights is 1 year, starting from the day of performance (delivery).

Special rules of warranty rights for goods sold under consumer contracts containing goods and digital elements

In contracts between consumer and business for the sale of movable goods or the provision of digital content, the provisions set out in the "General rules of warranty rights" apply to the Consumer with the deviations specified in this point.

In contracts between consumer and business for the sale of movable goods or the provision of digital content, the Consumer may not repair the defect at the Seller's expense nor have it repaired by others within the framework of exercising warranty rights.

The Seller may refuse to make the goods conforming if repair or replacement is impossible, or if it would result in disproportionate additional costs for the Seller, taking into account all circumstances, including the value represented by the goods in perfect condition and the severity of the breach of contract.

The consumer is also entitled - in proportion to the severity of the breach of contract - to demand a proportional reduction of the consideration or to terminate the sales contract if

  • the Seller did not carry out the repair or replacement, or carried it out but partially or entirely failed to meet the following conditions
    • The Seller must ensure the return of the replaced goods at their own expense.
    • If the repair or replacement requires the removal of goods that were put into operation in accordance with the nature and purpose of the goods before the defect became apparent, the obligation to repair or replace includes the removal of the non-conforming goods and the installation of the replacement or repaired goods or bearing the costs of removal and installation.
  • refused to make the goods conforming
  • a repeated performance defect has occurred despite the Seller's attempt to make the goods conforming
  • the defect in performance is of such severity that it justifies an immediate price reduction or immediate termination of the sales contract, or
  • the Seller has not undertaken to make the goods conforming, or it is evident from the circumstances that the business will not make the goods conforming within a reasonable time or without causing significant detriment to the consumer's interests.

If the consumer wishes to terminate the sales contract citing defective performance, the Seller bears the burden of proving that the defect is insignificant.

The Consumer is entitled to withhold the remaining part of the purchase price - in proportion to the severity of the breach of contract - partially or entirely until the Seller fulfills its obligations related to the conformity of performance and defective performance.

A generally applicable rule is that:

  • The Seller must ensure the return of the replaced goods at their own expense.
  • If the repair or replacement requires the removal of goods that were put into operation in accordance with the nature and purpose of the goods before the defect became apparent, the obligation to repair or replace includes the removal of the non-conforming goods and the installation of the replacement or repaired goods or bearing the costs of removal and installation.

The reasonable deadline for performing the repair or replacement shall be counted from the time the Consumer notified the defect to the business.

The consumer must make the goods available to the business for the purpose of repair or replacement.

The delivery of the counter-performance is proportional if its amount equals the difference between the value of the goods due to the Consumer in case of proper performance and the value of the goods actually received by the Consumer.

The Consumer's warranty right to terminate the sales contract can be exercised by a legal declaration addressed to the Seller expressing the decision to terminate.

If the defective performance affects only a specific part of the goods supplied under the sales contract, and the conditions for exercising the right to terminate the contract regarding those goods are met, the Consumer may terminate the sales contract only with respect to the defective goods, but may also terminate it with respect to any other goods acquired together with them if it is not reasonable to expect the Consumer to keep only the goods conforming to the contract.

If the Consumer terminates the sales contract in whole or in part regarding the goods supplied under the sales contract, then

  • The Consumer must return the affected goods to the Seller at the Seller's expense and
  • The Seller must immediately refund the purchase price paid by the Consumer for the affected goods as soon as it has received the goods or proof of their return.

Within what deadline can you enforce your warranty claim?

You are obliged to report the defect immediately after its discovery. A defect reported within two months from its discovery shall be considered reported without delay. However, please note that you can no longer enforce your warranty rights after the two-year limitation period from the fulfillment of the contract. If the subject of the contract between the consumer and the business is a used item, the parties may agree on a shorter limitation period; however, a limitation period shorter than one year cannot be validly agreed upon in this case.

Against whom can you enforce your warranty claim?

You can enforce your warranty claim against the Seller.

What other conditions apply to the enforcement of your warranty rights?

Within six months from performance (one year in the case of sale of goods), there are no other conditions for enforcing your warranty claim beyond notifying the defect, provided you prove that the Product or service was provided by the Seller. However, after six months from performance (one year in the case of sale of goods), you are obliged to prove that the defect you identified already existed at the time of performance.

Product Liability


In what cases can you exercise your product liability rights?

In case of a defect in a movable item (Product), you may choose to enforce either a warranty claim or a product liability claim.

What rights do you have based on your product liability claim?

As a product liability claim, you may only request the repair or replacement of the defective Product.

In what cases is the Product considered defective?

The product is defective if it does not meet the quality requirements in effect at the time of placing it on the market or if it does not have the properties described by the manufacturer in the provided description.

Within what deadline can you enforce your product liability claim?

You may enforce your product liability claim within two years from the date the Product was placed on the market by the manufacturer. After this deadline, you lose this right.

Against whom and under what other conditions can you enforce your product liability claim?

You may only enforce your product liability claim against the manufacturer or distributor of the movable item. In case of enforcing a product liability claim, you must prove the defect in the Product.

In what cases is the manufacturer (distributor) exempt from product liability obligations?

The manufacturer (distributor) is exempt from product liability obligations only if they can prove that:

  • the Product was not manufactured or placed on the market within the scope of their business activity, or
  • the defect was not detectable at the time of placing the product on the market according to the state of science and technology, or
  • the defect in the Product results from the application of a law or mandatory official regulation.

The manufacturer (distributor) only needs to prove one reason to be exempted.

Please note that you cannot enforce claims under both warranty for defects and product liability simultaneously for the same defect. However, if you successfully enforce your product liability claim, you may enforce your warranty claim against the manufacturer for the replaced or repaired part of the Product.

Warranty


In what cases can you exercise your warranty rights?

Based on Government Decree 151/2003. (IX. 22.) on mandatory warranty for certain durable consumer goods, the Seller is obliged to provide a warranty when selling new durable consumer goods listed in Annex 1 of the decree (e.g., technical goods, tools, machines), as well as their accessories and components as defined therein (hereinafter collectively referred to as consumer goods in this point).

In addition, the Seller may voluntarily provide a warranty, in which case a warranty statement must be given to the buyer qualifying as a Consumer.

The warranty statement must be provided to the Consumer on a durable data carrier, at the latest at the time of delivery of the goods.

The warranty statement must include:

  • a clear statement that in case of defective performance of the goods, the Consumer is entitled to exercise statutory warranty rights free of charge, and these rights are not affected by the warranty
  • the name and address of the party obligated to provide the warranty
  • the procedure to be followed by the Consumer to enforce the warranty
  • the identification of the goods to which the warranty applies and
  • the conditions of the warranty.

What rights do you have and within what deadlines under mandatory warranty?


Warranty rights

Based on the Buyer's warranty rights, as a general rule, they may demand repair or replacement, or repair the defect themselves or have it repaired at the obligor’s expense, request a price reduction, or ultimately withdraw from the contract if the obligor did not undertake the repair or replacement, cannot fulfill this obligation within the appropriate deadline without harming the entitled party’s interests, or if the entitled party’s interest in repair or replacement has ceased.

The Buyer may enforce their claim for repair at the Seller’s headquarters, any of its branches, or at the repair service indicated on the warranty certificate by the Seller.

Enforcement deadline

The warranty claim can be enforced during the warranty period, which is according to Government Decree 151/2003. (IX. 22.):

  1. One year for a sales price reaching 10,000 forints but not exceeding 100,000 forints,
  2. Two years for a sales price exceeding 100,000 forints but not exceeding 250,000 forints,
  3. Three years for a sales price above 250,000 forints.

Missing deadlines results in the loss of rights, however, in the case of repair of the consumer goods, the warranty period is extended from the day the item is handed over for repair by the amount of time during which the Buyer could not use the consumer goods properly due to the defect.

The warranty period starts upon delivery of the consumer product to the Buyer, or if the installation is performed by the Seller or its agent, it starts on the day of installation.

If the Buyer has the consumer product put into operation more than six months after delivery, the warranty period starts on the day of delivery of the consumer product.

Rules related to warranty claim handling

When handling repairs, the Seller must strive to complete the repair within 15 days. The deadline for repair starts upon receipt of the consumer product.

If the repair or replacement period exceeds fifteen days, the Seller is obliged to inform the Buyer about the expected duration of the repair or replacement.

If during the first repair of the consumer product within the warranty period the Seller determines that the consumer product cannot be repaired, unless the Buyer provides otherwise, the Seller is obliged to replace the consumer product within eight days. If replacement is not possible, the Seller must refund the purchase price shown on the invoice or receipt issued in accordance with the VAT law, proving payment of the consumer product's price, within eight days.

By accepting the GTC, the Buyer agrees that the information may also be provided electronically or by other means suitable for confirming receipt by the Buyer.

If the Seller cannot repair the consumer product within 30 days:

  • if the Buyer has consented to this, the repair can be performed within a later deadline, or
  • if the Buyer does not consent to the later performance of the repair, or has not made a statement regarding this, the consumer product must be replaced within eight days following the unsuccessful expiration of the thirty-day deadline, or
  • if the Buyer does not consent to the later performance of the repair, or has not made a statement regarding this, and replacement of the consumer product is also not possible, the sales price shown on the invoice or receipt of the consumer product must be refunded to them within eight days following the unsuccessful expiration of the thirty-day deadline.

If the consumer product becomes defective for the 4th time, the Buyer is entitled to:

  • to make a repair claim to the Seller, or
  • instead of the repair claim, based on point b) of paragraph (2) of Section 6:159 of Act V of 2013 on the Civil Code, to request a proportional price reduction from the Seller, or
  • instead of the repair claim, based on point b) of paragraph (2) of Section 6:159 of Act V of 2013 on the Civil Code, to have the consumer product repaired or repaired by others at the Seller's expense, or
  • if the Buyer does not exercise these rights (repair, price reduction, or repair by others at the Seller's expense), or has not made a statement regarding them, the consumer product must be replaced within 8 days; if replacement is not possible, the sales price shown on the invoice or receipt of the consumer product must be refunded within eight days.

Exceptions

The provisions under the "Rules related to the handling of guarantee claims" do not apply to electric bicycles, electric scooters, quads, motorcycles, mopeds, passenger cars, motorhomes, caravans, trailer caravans, trailers, and motorized watercraft.

In the case of these Goods, the Seller is still obliged to strive to fulfill the repair claim within 15 days.

If the repair or replacement period exceeds fifteen days, the Seller is obliged to inform the Buyer about the expected duration of the repair or replacement.

What is the relationship between the guarantee and other warranty rights?

The guarantee applies alongside warranty rights (product and warranty), the fundamental difference between general warranty rights and guarantee is that in the case of guarantee, the burden of proof is more favorable to the consumer. 

Consumer goods subject to mandatory guarantee under Government Decree 151/2003 with fixed installation, or weighing more than 10 kg, or not transportable as hand luggage on public transport - except for vehicles - must be repaired at the place of operation. If the repair cannot be performed at the place of operation, the company or - in the case of a repair claim enforced directly at the repair service - the repair service is responsible for disassembly and reassembly, as well as transportation to and from.

The Seller's commitment during the mandatory guarantee period may not contain conditions that are less favorable to the consumer than the rights provided by the rules of mandatory guarantee. However, after this period, the conditions of voluntary guarantee can be freely determined, but even in this case, the guarantee may not affect the consumer's rights arising from the law - including those based on warranty.

Exchange claim within three working days

The institution of exchange claims within three working days also applies in the case of sales through the web store. Exchange claims within three working days can be enforced for new durable consumer goods covered by Government Decree 151/2003 (IX. 22.), according to which, if someone enforces the exchange claim institution within 3 working days, the seller must interpret this as the Goods being defective at the time of sale and must replace the Goods without any further ado.

When is the Seller exempt from the guarantee obligation?

The Seller is exempt from the guarantee obligation only if they prove that the cause of the defect arose after the performance.

Please note that for the same defect, you cannot enforce warranty and guarantee claims, as well as product liability and guarantee claims simultaneously and in parallel; however, your rights arising from the guarantee are independent of the warranty rights.
