9.?Warranty?

Physical Goods

Only for Entrepreneurs: LEWITT warrants that the delivered goods essentially conform to the agreed specifications and at the time of transfer of risk are free from material defects. The warranty period is six months from delivery. Any defects must be notified without undue delay upon discovery, specifying the nature of the defect in reasonable detail. The Company shall fulfill its warranty obligations exclusively by remedying the defect either through improvement (Nachbesserung) or replacement (Austausch), at the sole discretion of the Company. Should both improvement and replacement prove to be economically unreasonable or impracticable for the Company, the Company reserves the right to withdraw from the contract.

The warranty is excluded for defects arising from improper handling, installation, or use contrary to the operating instructions, as well as for wear and tear.

Only for Consumers: You have statutory warranty rights under the Austrian Consumer Protection Act (KSchG) and the Austrian Civil Code (ABGB). LEWITT warrants that the goods are free from defects and suitable for the intended use at the time of delivery. The warranty period is 24 months from delivery (§ 933 ABGB), unless a longer period is required by law. If the goods are defective, you may request improvement or replacement. If this is not possible or would result in disproportionate cost to LEWITT, you may demand a price reduction or cancellation of the contract (Wandlung).

Software Products

Only for Entrepreneurs: The Software is provided “as is” in accordance with the agreed specifications. LEWITT warrants that, at the time of provision, software is free from defects that materially impair its functionality for the contractually agreed purpose. The warranty period is 6 months from provision or access to the software. You must inspect the software promptly and notify any defects in writing without undue delay. LEWITT shall remedy any reproducible defects within a reasonable period. No warranty is assumed for compatibility with third-party systems unless expressly agreed in writing.

Only for Consumers: For software and digital content, your rights are governed by the Verbrauchergew?hrleistungsgesetz (VGG). LEWITT ensures that digital products comply with the agreed characteristics and functionality at the time of delivery and during the statutory period. This includes the obligation to provide updates unless the parties have explicitly agreed otherwise in accordance with § 8 VGG. The warranty period is two years from the date the software is made available to you.

9.5 Product Illustrations

The product images shown in the LEWITT webshop may differ from the delivered goods, especially with newly introduced products. Minor changes to appearance or specifications that are reasonable do not constitute defects if the goods otherwise match the description.

10.?Limitation of liability?

10.1 The liability of LEWITT shall be excluded in all cases of slight negligence. This limitation of liability does not apply in cases of willful misconduct, gross negligence, or damages resulting from personal injury or death as well as any liability arising from applicable mandatory Product Liability laws.

You can submit your declaration of withdrawal to LEWITT to LEWITT's contact details, which are also listed?in section 1.1?above.?

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your notification of exercising your right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (with the exception of the supplementary costs resulting from your choice of a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us), without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which we receive notification of your withdrawal from this contract. For this reimbursement, we will use the same means of payment that you used for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; in no case will you be charged any fees for this reimbursement. We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or until you have provided proof that you have returned the goods, whichever is earlier.

You must return or hand over the goods to us immediately and in any case within 14 days at the latest from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract.

If you have damaged and/or improperly packaged any goods,?LEWITT shall be entitled to?compensation for the resulting reduction in the market value of the goods, unless such reduction in value is due to handling of the goods and/or packaging that is necessary to check the condition and/or properties of the goods and/or the appropriate functioning of the goods.?

11.9 If you no longer have a right to withdrawal (e.g. after expiry of your withdrawal period)?and you still exercise your no longer existing right of withdrawal, you must bear the costs?of?returning the goods?and?sending them to you again,?and the purchase contract remains unaffected.?
