Warranty

Only items listed in the current catalogue are covered by a warranty against any vice and/or defect in quality and/or manufacturing for a period of 24 months from the date of shipment. The mandatory conditions for this warranty are as follows:

  • Any claim must be formally addressed to Climkit SA, under penalty of forfeiture, by electronic means to the following address: service@climkit.io, strictly within 30 calendar days following the receipt of the products in case of apparent vices or defects. In case of hidden vices or defects, the claim must be made within thirty calendar days following their discovery. No claim will be considered beyond this period (i.e., 30 days after receipt of the goods at the address specified by the buyer).
  • In the event of validation, both conventional and judicial, of any buyer's claim, the seller undertakes, at their sole discretion, to replace the determined quantity of goods or to refund or cancel the corresponding invoiced amount.
  • Shipping and/or return costs for warranty items are exclusively borne by the seller, provided that the basis of the warranty request has been previously recognized, and only with the carrier designated by the seller.
  • The buyer acknowledges that the warranty offered by the seller covers the entirety of its potential liabilities, in order to protect it against any action for damages, direct and/or indirect, resulting from vices and/or defects in the goods, as well as any other claim or exception emanating from the buyer.
  • Even in the case of a legitimate claim, the buyer may not initiate actions or raise exceptions without having previously settled outstanding payments, nor delay or suspend payments at the agreed due dates.
  • Damage resulting from normal wear and tear, improper use, and lack of maintenance is not covered by the warranty.
  • Before any use of the product, the customer must carry out, under their own responsibility, all necessary checks to ensure that the purchased products are suitable for the intended use and present no risk to people or property.

Limitation of Liability: In no event shall Climkit SA be liable for consequential, incidental, indirect, special, or punitive damages arising from the use or performance of the product, even if Climkit has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Climkit SA's total liability for any claim under this warranty shall not exceed the purchase price of the product.

Governing Law and Dispute Resolution: This warranty is governed by the laws in force in Switzerland. Any dispute arising from or in connection with this warranty, including any contractual or tortious dispute or claim, shall be subject to resolution by arbitration in accordance with the arbitration rules of the Vaud Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CVCI). The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding on all parties. Any arbitration shall take place in Vevey, Switzerland. Arbitration costs shall be borne in accordance with the CVCI arbitration rules.

Severability: If any provision of this warranty is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

Warranty Modifications: No modification or amendment to this warranty shall be valid unless made in writing and duly signed by both parties. Climkit reserves the right to update or modify the terms of this warranty, and such modifications shall take effect upon their publication on the website https://climkit.io.
