3. Right to cancel
3.1. The consumer has a statutory right to cancel upon conclusion of a distance contract. Exemptions to the right to cancel are defined under subclause 3.2. A model cancellation form can be found under subclause 3.3.
Right to cancel. You can exercise your right to cancel the order within fourteen days, without needing to give reasons. 
The cancellation period is fourteen days from the day on which you, or a third party designated by you (other than the carrier), receive the goods.
To exercise your right to cancel, please send us clear confirmation that you wish to withdraw from the contract, either by registered mail to ADDITEQ GmbH, V přístavu 12, Prague Marina, 170 00 Prague 7 Holešovice, Czech Republic, or by email to info@additeq.com. We have attached a template cancellation form. Notification just needs to be sent off within the cancellation period to comply with the time limit.
Effects of cancellation. If you cancel a contract, we are required to reimburse all payments that we have received from you, including payments for delivery costs (but not including additional costs incurred if you select a delivery method other than our standard delivery method), and to do so without delay, but in any case within fourteen days from receipt of your notification of cancellation. We will use the same payment method as you used in the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise. You will not be charged for this reimbursement. We can withhold repayment until the goods have been returned or until you provide evidence that you have returned the goods, whichever comes first.
You must return the goods without delay, but in any case within fourteen days of informing us that you are exercising your right to cancel. It is sufficient if you send the goods off before the end of this time limit. You will bear the direct costs of returning the goods. You will only be required to pay for any loss in value of the goods if caused by handling that is not required for checking the quality and characteristics of goods and that they are in working order.
3.2. The right to cancel does not apply to distance selling contracts for goods manufactured to customer specifications, goods clearly tailored to personal requirements or goods by nature unsuitable for return. The right to cancel also does not apply to sealed products unsuitable for return if opened after delivery, for health or hygiene reasons (2in1 Cleaner Disinfectant/Isoproyl alcohol (IPA) etc.). The right to cancel also does not apply to used or opened products or to products without the original packaging or with damaged original packaging. 
3.3. The model cancellation form contains information about applicable legal provisions. If you would like to cancel the contract, please complete and return the model cancellation form (note that you are not obliged to use the model cancellation form).
