  1. Complaints procedure and liabilty

 

  • Products supplied by the entrepreneur may contain sharp edges or cause injuries to children and other people in other ways. No liability for injury due to improper use of the products is accepted by the entrepreneur.
  • The entrepreneur has a well-publicized complaints procedure and handles the complaint in accordance with this complaints procedure.
  • Complaints about the execution of the agreement must be submitted to the entrepreneur within a reasonable time, fully and clearly described, after the consumer has detected the defects.

  • Complains received by the entrepreneur will be answered within a period of 14 days calculated from the date of receipt.
