Points are not awarded for Sales Agreements concluded on such terms.
- RULES OF PARTICIPATING IN THE PROGRAM
- The basic assumption of the Loyalty Program is for the Customer to collect Points for the purchase of Products or other activities provided for by the Organizer, which can then be exchanged in the Online Store for discounts in accordance with these Terms and Conditions.
- The Customer may collect Points in the Program in the following ways:
- Making purchases – Points are awarded to the Customer for concluded and paid Sales Agreements in the Online Store according to the following conversion rate: 1 Point for each PLN 1.00 (in words: one zloty and 00/100) of the gross sale price of the Product (Points are calculated from the price of the Product, excluding delivery costs and other fees not constituting the sale price).
- Points are calculated from full zlotys, rounding down (for example, if the gross price of a Product in the basket is PLN 190.99, the Customer receives 190 Points).
- Points are awarded and credited to the Customer Account after 30 calendar days from the date of performance of the Sales Agreement (payment of the Order and delivery of the Product to the Customer).
- Other activities in the Online Store – Points are also awarded to the Customer for other activities undertaken in the Online Store:
- Newsletter subscription – 50 Points.
- Adding a Product review – 50 Points.
- Points are due to the Customer upon the first performance of a given activity with which these Terms and Conditions associate obtaining Points (e.g. first subscription to the Newsletter or first review of a given Product). The Customer is prohibited from taking any attempts to circumvent the above rules in order to obtain undue Points. The Organizer has the right to remove unduly awarded Points from the Customer Account if it determines in any way that the Points obtained were awarded in violation of the rules set out in these Terms and Conditions.
- Making purchases – Points are awarded to the Customer for concluded and paid Sales Agreements in the Online Store according to the following conversion rate: 1 Point for each PLN 1.00 (in words: one zloty and 00/100) of the gross sale price of the Product (Points are calculated from the price of the Product, excluding delivery costs and other fees not constituting the sale price).
- If, after awarding Points, the Organizer determines, based on objective circumstances (in particular the quantity, value or frequency of Orders, payment terms, content of separate commercial arrangements or sales documents), that a given Sales Agreement was concluded as part of a sale other than consumer sales, i.e. wholesale sales, B2B cooperation or on individually agreed commercial terms excluding participation in the Program in accordance with the above provisions of the Terms and Conditions (see section 3.6), the Organizer will inform the Customer thereof, indicating the reason, and deduct from the Account balance the Points awarded for that Sales Agreement, provided that the deduction does not apply to Points already exchanged for a discount used in a fulfilled Order.
- Collected Points are permanently assigned to the Customer Account. Points are non-transferable and cannot be transferred to another Account or to a third party. Points cannot be exchanged for cash or cash equivalent.
- In the event of withdrawal from the Sales Agreement by the Customer, regardless of the basis for such withdrawal, the Customer is not entitled to Points awarded for the Product from which they withdrew. If Points were awarded before the withdrawal from the agreement, they will be deducted from the balance on their Account after the Customer's withdrawal from that agreement.
- The Customer may check the balance of their Points at any time after logging into their Account, i.e. in the appropriate tab in the Account settings, as well as during the Order placement in the Order Form – the cart page displays information about the total number of Points held.
- The Customer may collect Points and use them throughout the entire period of validity of the Loyalty Program (i.e. until its cancellation), but no longer than for the period of holding and using the Account in the Online Store. Loyalty points do not expire.
- Points can be exchanged for a discount to be used exclusively for purchases in the Organizer's Online Store according to the following conversion rate:
- 450 Points – 5% discount;
- 2000 Points – 10% discount;
- 5000 Points – 15% discount.
- Exchange of Points for a discount may take place during the Order placement – after the Customer logs into their Account in the Online Store.
- A Customer who wishes to pay with Points should select the appropriate option in the Order Form and provide the number of Points they hold that they wish to exchange for a discount. Subsequently, in the subsequent steps of the Order Form, the value of the Sales Agreement will be automatically reduced accordingly by the value of the discount selected by the Customer.
- The Customer may use all Points held or only a part of them within one Order, provided that only one discount may apply per Order – in accordance with the conversion rate indicated in section 4.8 above. Discounts are not granted in fractional parts.
- Upon payment with Points, the balance in the Customer Account is automatically reduced by the number of Points constituting the cost of the discount. The condition for the exchange is that the Customer holds a sufficient number of Points corresponding to the value of the selected discount.
- The discount is one-time and reduces only the gross sale price of the Product, excluding delivery costs or other fees not constituting the price of the Product.
- In the event of withdrawal by a Customer who is a consumer from the Sales Agreement without giving a reason in accordance with their statutory rights, Points for unused discount are restored to the Customer Account.
- The Loyalty Program, including Points and discounts awarded under it, cannot be combined with other promotional campaigns and discounts in the Organizer's Store, unless the separate terms of a given promotion or discount state otherwise.
