Warranty
Only items listed in the current catalog are covered by a warranty against any defect and/or quality and/or manufacturing defect for a period of 24 months from the date of shipment. The imperative conditions of this warranty are as follows:
- Any claim must be formally addressed to Climkit SA, under penalty of foreclosure, by electronic means to the following address: "service@climkit.io", within a strict period of 30 calendar days following the receipt of the products in case of apparent defects or faults. In case of hidden defects or faults, 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 case of validation, both conventional and judicial, of any claim by the buyer, the seller undertakes, at its exclusive discretion, to replace the determined quantity of goods or to refund or cancel the corresponding invoiced amount.
- Shipping and/or return costs for items under warranty are exclusively covered by the seller, provided that the validity of the warranty claim has been recognized in advance, and this exclusively with the carrier designated by the seller.
- The buyer acknowledges that the warranty offered by the seller covers all of its potential liabilities, in order to protect it against any action for damages, direct and/or indirect, resulting from defects and/or faults of the goods, as well as any other claim or exception arising from the buyer.
- Even in the case of a legitimate claim, the buyer may not initiate actions or raise objections without first having honored overdue payments, nor may it delay or suspend payments at the agreed upon deadlines.
- Damages resulting from normal wear and tear, improper use, and lack of maintenance are not covered by the warranty.
- Before using the product, the customer must, under their own responsibility, carry out all necessary checks to ensure that the purchased products are suitable for the intended use and pose no risk to persons or property.
Limitation of Liability: Under no circumstances 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 informed 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.
Applicable Law and Dispute Resolution: This warranty is governed by the laws of Switzerland. Any dispute arising out of or in connection with this warranty, including any contractual or tort claims or disputes, shall be resolved 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.
