After receiving the order, you have the right to withdraw from the contract entered into with the E-commerce Store within 30 days. You cannot withdraw from the order between the time of ordering and receiving the order. You cannot withdraw after 30 days of receiving the order, unless for extraordinary causes.The right of withdrawal does not apply if you are a legal person.
To exercise the 30-day right of withdrawal, you may not use the ordered goods in any other way than is necessary in order to examine the nature, properties and functioning of the goods in the same way you would be allowed to test the goods in a physical shop.
If the goods have been used in any other way than is necessary for the nature, characteristics or functionality of the goods or they have wear marks, Cuvex has the right to reduce the refundable amount in accordance with the decrease in value of the goods. Without limiting the above, Cuvex shall not refund you any amount of the Cuvex Device purchase price if the tamper-proof sticker on the Cuvex Device packaging is broken.
In order to return the goods, you have to submit a withdrawal application form that can be accessed on the E-commerce Store and send it via e-mail no later than 30 days of receiving the goods. The costs of returning the goods will be borne by you, unless the reason for return is the fact that the item being returned does not correspond to what was ordered (e.g. an incorrect or defective item). You have to return the goods within 30 days of submitting the application to do so or provide proof that the goods have been handed over to the carrier within that period.
Having received the returned goods, Cuvex refunds you any amounts received from you on the basis of the contract immediately but no later than within 30 days of receiving the application for withdrawal (except for the case when the tamper-proof sticker on the Cuvex Device packaging is broken, in which case the refundable amount is reduced to zero).
Cuvex may refuse to process the refund until it receives the item that is the object of the contract or until you submit proof that the item has been sent back, whichever happens first.
If you have explicitly chosen a method of delivery different from the most inexpensive normal method of delivery offered by the E-commerce Store, Cuvex is not required to refund to the consumer the amount exceeding the cost of normal delivery.
Cuvex has the right to withdraw from the sales transaction and request that the goods be returned by you if the marked price of the goods in the E-commerce Store is significantly lower than the market price of the goods due to an error.

Cuvex is liable for the non-compliance of the goods sold to you with the terms and conditions of the contract or for the defects which existed at the time of delivery of the item and which become evident within up to two years of the delivery of the goods to you. Within the first year after the item was delivered to you, it is presumed that the defect already existed at the time of delivery. It is the responsibility of Cuvex to disprove this.In the event of a defect, you have the right to contact Cuvex no later than within 30 days by sending an e-mail to team@cuvex.io. Cuvex is not liable:
- - for defects that have occurred due to the consumer’s action or inaction (incorrect use, an accident, etc.) after the goods were delivered
- - in the case of normal wear and tear caused by normal use of the item
- - if applicable, the tamper-proof sticker is broken (but was intact at the time of shipping).
If the goods purchased in the E-commerce Store have defects for which Cuvex is liable, Cuvex will repair or replace the defective goods. If the goods cannot be repaired or replaced, Cuvex will refund all fees incurred under the sales contract to the buyer (except for when the fee is reduced to zero). Cuvex responds to the consumer’s complaint within 15 days in writing or in a format that can be reproduced in writing.
