§ 8 Liability for Lack of Conformity of Digital Content or Digital Service with the Agreement
- If the StartUp has not supplied the digital content or digital service, the Client shall call upon the StartUp to deliver them. If the StartUp fails to deliver the digital content or digital service without undue delay or within an additional, expressly agreed period, the Client may withdraw from the agreement.

- The StartUp may refuse to bring the digital content or digital service into conformity with the agreement if doing so is impossible or would impose excessive costs on the StartUp.
- If the digital content or digital service is not in conformity with the agreement, the Client may submit a statement requesting a price reduction or withdrawal from the agreement when:

b) the StartUp has failed to bring the digital content or digital service into conformity with the agreement in accordance with Article 43m(4) of the Consumer Rights Act;
c) the lack of conformity of the digital content or digital service with the agreement continues despite the StartUp’s attempt to bring it into conformity with the agreement;
d) the lack of conformity of the digital content or digital service with the agreement is so substantial as to justify a price reduction or withdrawal from the agreement without first resorting to the remedy referred to in Article 43m of the Consumer Rights Act;
e) it is clear from the StartUp’s statement or the circumstances that the StartUp will not bring the digital content or digital service into conformity with the agreement within a reasonable time or without undue inconvenience to the Client. - The reduced price must be in such proportion to the price provided for in the agreement as the value of the non-conforming digital content or digital service bears to the value of the digital content or digital service that conforms to the agreement. If the agreement provides that the digital content or digital service is supplied in parts or continuously, the price reduction shall take into account the time during which the digital content or digital service was not in conformity with the agreement.
- The Client may not withdraw from the agreement if the digital content or digital service is supplied in exchange for payment of a price and the lack of conformity of the digital content or digital service with the agreement is insignificant.
- In the event of the Client’s withdrawal from the agreement, the StartUp may request the return of the tangible medium on which the digital content was supplied within 14 days of receiving the Client’s statement of withdrawal. The Client shall return the medium without delay.
- In the event of the Client’s withdrawal from the agreement, the StartUp shall be obliged to refund only the portion of the price corresponding to the digital content or digital service that is not in conformity with the agreement, and to the digital content or digital service for which the obligation to supply ceased as a result of the withdrawal.
- The StartUp shall refund the price using the same method of payment as was used by the Client, unless the Client expressly agrees to a different method of refund that does not incur any costs for the Client.

- If the StartUp fails to respond to the complaint within the specified period, the complaint shall be deemed accepted.
- The StartUp shall inform the Client of the outcome of the complaint in writing or on another durable medium.
- The StartUp’s liability for lack of conformity of digital content or digital service with the agreement, as well as for failure to perform or improper performance of the agreement concluded with the Client, shall be excluded in the case of agreements concluded with a Client who is not:
a) a Consumer;
b) a natural person entering into an agreement with the StartUp directly related to their business activity, where it follows from the content of the agreement that it is not of a professional nature for that person, particularly in light of the subject of their business activity made available under the Central Registration and Information on Business (CEIDG).
