The Customer cannot withdraw from the agreement if the non-compliance of the Goods with the agreement is insignificant.

The complaint should include data enabling the Customer’s identification, the subject of the complaint, and the requests related to the complaint. In the event of receiving an incomplete complaint that prevents its consideration, the Seller shall request the Customer to complete it, under the penalty of leaving the complaint without examination.

3) The lack of conformity with the agreement persists, even though the Seller has attempted to bring the digital content or digital service into conformity with the agreement;

The rules define the conditions for organizing and conducting classes and courses (referred to as “Classes”) by the Seller. The rules for classes and courses are an integral part of the store’s terms and conditions.
An agreement is concluded upon the Customer’s acceptance of the rules, confirmation by the Seller of accepting the order for execution, and payment (if payment is a condition for commencing cooperation). The offer provided by the Seller or the Agreement for the provision of educational services, if made available to the Customer, constitutes an integral part of the agreement (referred to as the “Offer”).
The glossary of terms is located in §16 of the terms and conditions.

§2 PAYMENTS

The Customer is obliged to make payment for the Classes. Detailed information regarding payments, including the schedule, is specified in the Offer and the provisions of the store’s terms and conditions.
Failure to make payment on time will result in the Seller initiating debt collection procedures. Payments are monitored by the Law Office of Kinga Konopelko [contact address: Sezamkowa 28/3, 52-317 Wrocław; www.edulegal.pl].
In the event of non-payment within the specified period, the Organizer, after a prior demand for payment under the penalty of suspending the provision of services or terminating the agreement, reserves the right to suspend the provision of services or terminate the agreement.

§3 ORGANIZATION OF CLASSES

The Seller provides educational services to the Participant, which includes conducting classes that the Seller has undertaken to organize as individual or group sessions, as well as preparing necessary learning materials.
The Participant is obligated to follow the established rules during the classes. This includes, among other things, preparing for the classes, observing personal conduct rules, and not disrupting the work during the classes.
In the case of group classes, if the number of participants does not reach or falls below 4 individuals (unless a different minimum number of participants in the group is specified in the Offer), the Seller has the right to terminate the Agreement for valid reasons. The Seller may also propose transferring the Participant to another group or propose an increase in fees, and the Customer has the right to reject the new offer.
Detailed information regarding the participant’s image is specified in the store’s terms and conditions.

§4 SCHEDULE

The timeframe for fulfilling the Agreement, the duration of the classes, as well as the number of classes, are indicated in the Offer.
In the case of group classes, the schedule is determined no later than before the start of the classes, unless otherwise specified in the Offer.
For individual classes, unless otherwise specified in the Offer, the schedule is individually agreed upon by the Seller and the Participant/Customer. The schedule for the upcoming calendar month is as follows:
a) For new Participants, the schedule is determined during the first classes.
b) For Participants continuing the Classes, the schedule is determined no later than the last classes in the respective calendar month.
The Seller reserves the right to cancel classes for a valid reason, no later than one day before the planned class date, unless the valid reason occurs later (e.g., sudden illness, unforeseen event). In such a situation, an alternative date will be scheduled to make up for the missed classes.
In the case of group classes:
a) Due to the nature of the classes, changing the class schedule by the Customer/Participant is not possible.
b) Absence from classes does not exempt the Customer/Participant from the obligation to pay for the classes that took place according to the schedule.
In the case of individual classes (1:1), changing the class schedule by the Customer/Participant is only possible for valid reasons, according to the following conditions:
a) The Customer/Participant is required to inform the Seller of the change in class date no later than 24 hours before the planned class (e.g., via SMS/email or by any other accepted method).
b) The Customer/Participant can cancel a maximum of 2 classes per month.
c) Classes are considered completed if their scheduled time has not been changed as described above. In such a case, absence from the classes does not exempt the Customer/Participant from the obligation to pay for the classes that took place according to the schedule and which the Seller was prepared to conduct.
In the event of absence from classes, the Participant may receive access to the prepared class materials. For this purpose, the Participant contacts the Seller, providing an email address to which the materials should be made available/sent (unless the materials have already been provided on the material platform).

§5 ONLINE CLASSES – TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

In the case of online classes, the Participant should have:
a) an active email address,
b) computer equipment to participate in the classes, headphones or speakers for audio playback, as well as a microphone and camera.
It is recommended to participate in the classes using a stable internet connection. Mobile connections, due to their nature, may cause disruptions, including interruptions in the Participant’s participation in the classes.
The Seller is not responsible for irregularities related to participation in online classes if the cause lies with the Customer/Participant or other entities whose services the Customer/Participant uses (e.g., internet service provider), which may directly/indirectly affect the ability to use the Seller’s services.
In the event of technical problems as mentioned in point 3, preventing participation in the classes, the classes will be considered completed.
In the event of technical problems on the Seller’s side or the supporting entities assisting the Seller in fulfilling the agreement, which prevent the classes from being conducted in whole or in part, these classes, in whole or in part, will be rescheduled for another date.
The provided materials may have the following formats: *.PDF, *.doc, *.mp3, *.mp4, *.zip, *.rar. The Participant must have programs that can handle these file formats.
In the case when materials are provided through platforms such as Zoom/Skype or Google Meet/Google Classroom application or any other platform, the Participant will need access to these platforms. The Seller will provide the Participant with instructions on how to gain access to these platforms.

§6 TERMINATION OF THE AGREEMENT

The Customer has the right to terminate the agreement without stating a reason by means of a clear expression of will, with a notice period of 1 month (for group classes) or 2 weeks (for individual classes).
Termination of the Agreement should be done by submitting a declaration of termination of the Agreement in written or electronic form (e.g., via email).
The Seller has the right to terminate the agreement for valid reasons indicated in these Terms and Conditions, as well as in the event of a significant breach of the Terms and Conditions and the Agreement by the Customer/Participant – after prior notification to cease the violations and setting an appropriate additional deadline, under the penalty of termination of the Agreement immediately. Significant breaches include, in particular, failure to pay the fees for the classes, actions taken by the Customer/Participant that hinder or impede the conduct of the classes.
Upon termination of the agreement, the Seller settles the fees paid.
If payment for the classes has been made in an amount higher than the amount corresponding to the number of classes completed by the expiration date of the notice period/termination of the Agreement and the expenses incurred by the Seller for the proper performance of the Agreement, the Organizer refunds the overpayment to the Customer immediately but no later than within 14 days from the date of termination of the agreement. The overpayment is refunded to the Customer’s account from which the payment was made unless the Customer indicates otherwise.
If payment for the classes has been made in an amount lower than the amount corresponding to the number of classes completed by the expiration date of the notice period/termination of the Agreement and the expenses incurred by the Seller for the proper performance of the Agreement, the Customer is obliged to settle the underpayment (the missing amount) immediately but no later than within 14 days from the date of the request.

§7 AMENDMENT OF THE AGREEMENT

The Seller reserves the right to make changes to the Terms and Conditions for valid reasons, especially in the event of a significant change in economic factors (e.g., due to increased burdens and public fees, increased administrative fees), provided that there is a causal relationship between such change and the change in the costs of providing services by the Seller, as well as due to changes in legal regulations (including the Civil Code, Consumer Rights Act) or decisions and judgments to the extent that they require the Seller to make changes.
The Customer will be notified by email or in writing of any changes to the Terms and Conditions no later than 14 days before the planned date of implementing the changes.
By notifying the Customer of the changes as mentioned in point 1, the Seller informs that if the Customer does not object to these changes before the effective date of the changes, it will be deemed that the Customer has agreed to them.
The Customer has the right to terminate the agreement with immediate effect before the effective date of the changes.
If the Customer objects to the changes but does not terminate the agreement, the agreement will be terminated on the day preceding the effective date of the changes to the Terms and Conditions.
The procedure mentioned in points 1-5 does not apply to the change in the form of conducting classes from in-person classes to online classes. If, for valid reasons, it is difficult or impossible to conduct in-person classes, especially in the event of a declared state of epidemic, epidemiological threat, state of emergency, or the introduction of other restrictions that hinder or prevent the conduct of in-person classes, including as a result of administrative restrictions or recommendations from the Chief Sanitary Inspector, or when a change in the form of conducting classes is justified by significant safety considerations for the Seller and Participants. In such circumstances, until they cease to exist, the Customer agrees to change the form of conducting classes from in-person to online. Detailed information regarding the requirements for online classes has been specified in § 4 of the Terms and Conditions (Online Classes).
The change in the form of conducting classes as mentioned in § 7 point 6:
a) does not constitute a change to the Agreement/Terms and Conditions and does not require an annex,
b) does not provide a basis for terminating the agreement/withdrawing from the agreement,
c) does not provide a basis for changing the amount of fees for classes.
A change in the class schedule for reasons attributable to the Seller as mentioned in § 4 and § 5 (Schedule and Online Classes) does not constitute a change to the agreement. If the Participant is unable to make up for the missed classes in the new schedule proposed by the Seller, the fee for those classes will be refunded or carried over to the next settlement period, according to the Customer’s decision.
