In such a situation, the Customer has the right to explain all circumstances related to verifying the correctness of the given data. In the absence of data allowing the Seller to contact the Customer, the Seller will provide any explanations after the Customer has made contact. The Customer declares that all data provided by him in the order form are true, while the Seller is not obliged to verify its truthfulness and correctness, although he has such permission in accordance with paragraph. 9 above. §6 Delivery and payment Available methods of delivery of an order covering physical products are presented to the Customer at the stage of ordering.

If the Customer has asked for an invoice, it will be delivered to the Customer by e-mail to the e-mail address provided in the order form. §7 Execution of the order – Physical products The implementation of an order covering physical products consists of completing the ordered products, packing them for delivery to the Customer and sending the purchased products to the Customer, to the address provided by the Customer, in accordance with the form of delivery selected by the Customer. The order is considered completed at the moment of sending the parcel to the Customer (entrusting the parcel to a carrier). The order execution time is always indicated for each product. The ordered products should be delivered to the Customer within 30 days, unless a longer period has been clearly indicated by the Seller in the product description. In such a situation, by placing an order, the Customer agrees to a longer order fulfillment period resulting from the product description. If the Customer has ordered products with different delivery times indicated, the Seller’s binding date for the entire order is the longest among all products included in the order, the Seller may propose to divide the order into several independent shipments for the purposes of accelerating the completion time for some products . §8 Execution of the order – Electronic products The implementation of an order covering electronic products takes place by sending to the e-mail address provided by the Customer in the order form a message containing instructions on downloading or gaining access to the purchased electronic product. Please, check SPAM and Offers folders. In the case of on-line courses, an account may be created for the Customer on the online platform, and the access data will be sent as part of the e-mail referred to in paragraph 1 above. In case of on-line courses, access to the content of the course may be limited in time, according to the information included in the course description on the Store’s website. In such a situation, after the indicated period of time, the Customer will lose access to the course. In the case of on-line courses, the Customer is obliged to use the online platform in a manner consistent with the law, the Terms and Conditions and good practices, in particular: 1) use the platform in a way that does not interfere with the use of the platform by its other users, not infringing any rights, assets or interests of third parties, not adversely affecting the platform, especially through the use of malicious software, 2) not share access data to the account on the platform to any third parties, 3) not to distribute the course or its individual parts without the prior consent of the Seller. In case of using the online platform in a manner contrary to the provisions of paragraph 4 above, the Seller retains the right to block the Customer from accessing the course. §9 Execution of the order – Workshops The realisation of the order for workshops (live or on-line) is carried out by providing the Customer or the person indicated by the Customer in accordance with paragraph. 6 below, the possibility to participate in the workshop within the time chosen by the Customer when placing the order. The workshop is carried out as described on the Store’s website. In order to take part in the workshop, the Customer is obliged to appear at the place where the workshop takes place, on the date chosen by him during the purchase of the workshop. Failure to participate in the workshop by the Customer, except for the situation in which the Customer who is a Consumer effectively renounced the contract or terminated the contract with agreement between both sides, does not entitle the Customer to return the amount paid to the Seller for participation in the workshop. If the Seller organizes workshop on several dates, the Customer may change the date on which he will participate in the workshop if he informs the Seller about it at least 5 days before the ordered workshop starts, if the Seller will be able to provide The Customer the opportunity to participate in the workshop at another time. Otherwise, changing the date is not possible, and failure to participate in the workshop causes the effects referred to in paragraph. 4 above. By purchasing the place at the workshop, the Customer has the right to indicate the person who will take part in the workshop. In such a situation, the Customer is obliged to provide the participant’s data within 3 days of concluding the contract. The Customer can change the training participant’s data no later than 2 days before the workshop date. The provision of the participant’s data is tantamount to the declaration that the Customer is entitled to provide such data and informed the participant about this fact. §10 Execution of the order – Individual trainings The implementation of an individual training contract takes place by providing the Customer with the opportunity to take part in the individual training with the Seller (or other person indicated in the description) (live or on-line) for the period resulting from the order (the Customer may add a specific number of training hours to the basket). After placing an individual training order, the Seller will contact the Customer in order to arrange the details of the training, in particular the time of the training. The dates of individual trainings are determined jointly by the Seller and the Customer. If it is necessary to change the date of the training, it is possible, however the Seller should be informed at least 24 hours before the training and the purchased individual training hours must be used within 6 months from the conclusion of the contract. Before individual training, it may be necessary to provide the Seller with additional information about which the Seller will write via e-mail. The Customer’s failure to use the purchased hours of individual trainings within 3 months from the conclusion of the contract, except for the situation where the Customer who is a consumer effectively renounced the contract or terminated the contract with the agreement between both sides, does not entitle the Customer to return the payment paid to the Seller for the purchased individual training. The Customer’s failure to take part in the individual trainings at agreed date and time without informing the Seller minimum 24 hours before the training starts, does not entitle the Customer to return the payment paid to the Seller for the purchased individual training. Individual trainings are always carried out in the one-hour option. This means that the Customer can not share the purchased hour of individual training into more than one meeting with the Seller. If the individual training lasts less than an hour due to the circumstances on the part of the Customer, the unused time for individual training is lost. §11 Cancelling workshops If in case of training services offered in the form of workshops, not enough people are gathered, the workshop may be cancelled by Empathic Way. In the event of cancellation of the workshop, the persons who purchased the service will be informed about it via email to the e-mail address provided during the order and Empathic Way will refund the fee within 14 days to the bank account indicated by the Consumer or transfer the fee to other workshop with the consent of the Customer. §12 Consumer’s withdrawal from the contract A consumer who has concluded a distance contract with the Seller, has the right to withdraw from the contract without giving a reason within 14 days from taking possession of the purchased items (in the case of a sales contract) or within 14 days from the date of the contract (in the case of a contract for the delivery of digital content and contracts for the provision of services). Starting from 01/01/2021, the right to withdraw from the contract on the terms described in this paragraph and resulting from the Act on consumer rights also applies to a natural person concluding a contract with the Seller directly related to their business activity, if the content of this contract indicates, that it does not have a professional character for that person, resulting in particular from the subject of the business activity performed by them, made available on the basis of the provisions on the Central Register and Information on Economic Activity. Therefore, when under this paragraph, the rights of the Consumer are mentioned, starting from 01/01/2021, these rights also apply to a person who meets the above criteria. The right to withdraw from the contract is not valid in respect of contracts: 1) for the provision of services, if the Seller has fully provided the service with the full consent of the Consumer, who was informed before the service begins that after fulfilling the service by the Seller, he will lose the right to withdraw from the contract, 2) for delivery of digital content that is not recorded on a tangible medium, if the performance began with the Consumer’s full consent before the deadline for withdrawal and after being informed by the Seller about the loss of the right to withdraw from the contract. The moment of commencement of the service in the case of electronic products is delivery to the Customer of an e-mail with instructions on gaining access to an electronic product. In order to withdraw from the contract, the Consumer must inform the Seller about his decision to withdraw from the contract by means of an unambiguous statement – for example, a letter sent by e-mail. The consumer may use the withdrawal form available at https://empathiceurope.com/online/withdrawal-from-agreement-form/, however this is not obligatory. In order to keep the deadline for withdrawing from the contract, it is enough for the Consumer to send information regarding the exercise of their right to withdraw from the contract before the deadline to withdraw from the contract. The Consumer is obliged to return the product to the Seller or give it to the person authorized by the Seller immediately, but not later than 14 days from the date on which they withdrawn from the contract, unless the Seller suggested that they will pick up the item themselves. To meet the deadline, it is enough to return the product before its expiry. The Consumer covers the direct cost of returning the product. In the event of withdrawal from the contract, the Seller shall return to the Consumer all payments received from the Consumer, including the cheapest cost of delivering products available in the Store (if the cost was covered by the Consumer) immediately, and in any case not later than 14 days from the day on which the Seller was informed about the withdrawal from the contract. Returns will be made using the same payment methods that were used by the Consumer in the original transaction, unless the Consumer has explicitly agreed to another solution. In any case, the Consumer will not incur any fees due to the form of payment reimbursement. If the Seller has not offered to collect the product from the Consumer himself, he may withhold the refund of payments received from the Consumer until he receives the product back or the Consumer provides proof of its return, depending on which event occurs first. The consumer is liable for the decrease in the value of the product as a result of using the product in a way that goes beyond what is necessary to check the nature, characteristics and functioning of the product. §13 Responsibility for defects The Seller is obliged to provide the Customer with a product and digital content free from defects, as well as perform the service in a non-defective manner. The Seller is liable to the Customer if the sold product or digital content has a physical or legal defect (warranty for defects) or if the service has been made defective. If the Customer finds a defect of the product, digital content or the defectiveness of the service performed, they should inform the Seller about it, at the same time specifying the claim related to the defect found or by submitting a statement of appropriate content. If the sold product has a defect, the Customer may: 1) demand replacement of the product with a product free from defects, 2) demand that the defect be removed, 3) submit a price reduction statement, 4) submit a declaration of withdrawal from the contract. The Customer may use the complaint form, available at https://empathiceurope.com/online/complaint-form/, however this is not obligatory.
