9. Consumer: Right to withdraw from the contract
9.1 When you book an Appointment or register for a Course on the Website, we conclude a contract. If you are a consumer (Section 1 of the Austrian Consumer Protection Act “KSchG”), you have the right to withdraw from this contract without stating any reason (according to the provisions of the Austrian Fern- und Auswärtsgeschäftegesetz “FAGG”). The revocation period is 14 days from the day on which you booked an Appointment or registered for a Course.
9.2 If your booked Appointment or Course is scheduled to take place within the 14-day withdrawal period, we will only start providing services if you have expressly requested us to do so. Such a request can be indicated during the booking process. We hereby inform you that you lose your right to withdraw from the contract, as soon as the contract is fulfilled from our side. If you withdraw after the beginning of the Appointment or Course, but before its completion, a pro rata fee has to be paid.
9.3 Exceptions to the right of withdrawal: Contracts for products which are delivered sealed and are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene (including Product Kits), you can only revoke as long as you have not removed the seal after delivery. After removal of the seal, withdrawal from the contract is excluded, especially as we cannot exclude the possibility that the goods no longer meet the quality requirements.
9.4 In order to exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us by means of a clear statement (e.g. by letter or e-mail to the e-mail address office@vesnajugovic.com or the postal address Gartengasse 8/8, 1050 Vienna, Austria) that you wish to withdraw from the contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form, which is not mandatory. In order to comply with the withdrawal period, it is sufficient to send the withdrawal notification before the end of the revocation period.
9.5 If you withdraw from the contract (booking or registration), we shall reimburse you for all payments we have received from you, including delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs resulting from the fact that you have chosen a different type of delivery from the cheapest standard delivery offered by us), without delay and at the latest within fourteen days from the day on which we receive notification of your withdrawal of the contract. For this refund, we will use the same means of payment that you used for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; in no event will you be charged for this refund. You shall bear the direct costs of returning the product.
9.6 We may refuse to make any refund until we have received the product or until you have provided proof that you have returned the product, whichever is earlier.
9.7 You must return or hand over the product to us immediately and in any event no later than 14 days from the date on which you notify us of the withdrawal from the contract. This period shall be deemed to have been observed if you dispatch the product before the expiry of the fourteen-day period.
9.8 You shall only be liable for any loss in value of the product if this loss in value is due to handling of the goods that is not necessary for the purpose of checking their condition, properties and functionality.
10. Obligation to inspect and complain

Insofar as permitted by mandatory law, we shall in no case be liable for indirect or consequential damages, lost profits, business, value, revenue, goodwill, or anticipated savings.
13.2 The above limitations on liability shall apply mutatis mutandis in favor of our vicarious agents, as well.

You shall furnish proof of such defects/faults. Art 924, second sentence, and Art 933b of the Austrian Civil Code (ABGB) are not applicable in relation to an entrepreneur (Section 1 Austrian Commercial Code “UGB”).
In the event of a warranty case, we shall be entitled to choose the method of fulfilling our warranty obligation (removal of defect, exchange or price reduction) at our discretion.
You agree that we may use one of our contractual partners in Austria or abroad in the performance of our warranty obligations.
14.2 Warranty rights of entrepreneurs (Section 1 Austrian Commercial Code “UGB”) shall become statute-barred within 12 months from the moment of handover/delivery of the product(s) or service.
14.3 The rights stated in this Section 14 shall not apply in the following cases:
- If, and to the extent that the products were repaired or changed by other persons than by us or authorized dealers;
- If, and to the extent that the defects are wholly or partly due to false handling, operating errors, accident, improper use, inappropriate storage, maintenance or installation or non-adherence to advice or instructions provided by us and pertaining to the delivered product(s).
14.4 Please note that according to the state of the art (i.e. product(s)), the possible fault of a product cannot be excluded under any and all conditions of use. Therefore, we do not assume any warranty, for neither the use of the product, free from interruption and/or errors, nor for the correction of all errors and faults.
14.5 There is no warranty for replacement parts and accessories (such as machine handpieces, foot pedals, power supply units, batteries).
15. Confidentiality and data protection
15.1 If you register for a Course, you undertake to keep any confidential information disclosed to you strictly confidential. Confidential information includes all statements, insights, data and documents that are expressly designated as confidential by me, as well as business and trade secrets and confidential information of third parties. In case of doubt, the confidentiality of information is to be assumed. In particular, you are not allowed to share Course and training documents (even if not explicitly declared to be confidential) with third parties. Such obligation to confidentiality shall extend beyond the duration of the respective Course for an unlimited period of time.
15.2 We shall process your personal data solely to the extent permitted by law and shall safeguard it from unauthorized access. The terms of our Privacy Policy apply.

16.5 In the event of any dispute arising from this Agreement or a contract concluded in its execution – including disputes about its existence or non-existence – the courts with subject-matter jurisdiction at the registered seat of Tjhe Perma in Vienna shall be the exclusive forum (except for consumers, in which case the mandatory place of forum shall apply).
