Article 3. Prices and Payments
3.1 If, after the agreement has been concluded, one or more of the price factors increase, the supplier is entitled to increase the agreed price accordingly, even if the increase is caused by foreseeable circumstances. The supplier will notify the client of any such price increase as soon as possible. If such a price increase occurs within three months of the effective date of the agreement, the client is entitled to terminate the agreement within seven (7) days of receiving the announced price increase. 3.2 Payment will be made using one of the methods indicated during the ordering process.

Items will not be supplied at an incorrect price. If the supplier cancels the agreement, the paid amount will be refunded to the customer within ten days.
Â

If a delay occurs through no fault of the seller due to changes in the aforementioned working conditions or because materials ordered in time for the execution of the work are not delivered on time, the delivery time will be extended as necessary. The delivery time will also be extended if the delay is caused by the seller, for example, due to the client’s failure to comply with any obligation arising from the agreement or to cooperate with the client.
