Terms of Service

 

OVERVIEW

These Terms of Service regulate the rules for the visit of the website smalo-emobility.com (“website”, “site”) and the purchase in the online store on the website including the rights and obligations of the seller, the company Darfon Electronics Czech s.r.o., Id.-No.: 276 79 268, having its seat at Cvrčovice 192, 691 23, Cvrčovice, Czech Republic, registered in the Commercial Register maintained by the Regional Court in Brno, Section C, Subsection 51364, and the buyer.

Throughout the site, the terms “Smalo”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to the company Darfon Electronics Czech s.r.o. Smalo offers this website, including all information, tools and Services available from this site to you, the user, conditioned upon your acceptance of all terms, conditions, policies and notices stated here.

By visiting our site and/ or purchasing something from us, you engage in our “Service” and agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions (“Terms of Service”, “Terms”), including those additional terms and conditions and policies referenced herein and/or available by hyperlink. These Terms of Service apply to all users of the site, including without limitation users who are browsers, vendors, customers, merchants, and/ or contributors of content.

If a certain provision refers expressly to a Consumer, the provision regulates special rights or obligations of the Consumer and applies only to Consumer. Consumer is a special category of the buyer – consumer is a person who outside its scope of business or the independent exercise of its profession enters into a contract or has other dealings with an entrepreneur. Consumer is subject to a special enhanced protection provided by the legal regulations, in particular by the Act No. 89/2012 Coll., Civil Code (“Civil Code”) and the Act. No. 634/1992 Coll., on Consumer Protection (“Act on Consumer Protection”). If such provision conflicts with the legal regulations, legal regulations shall always prevail.

If you do not agree to all the terms and conditions of this agreement, then you may not access the website or use any Services. 

We may also, in the future, offer new Services and/or features through the website (including the release of new tools and resources). Such new features and/or Services shall also be subject to these Terms of Service. You can review the most current version of the Terms of Service at any time on this page. We reserve the right to update, change or replace any part of these Terms of Service by posting updates and/or changes to our website. It is your responsibility to check this page periodically for changes.
