Withdrawal, Returns and Complaints

Effective 17 October 2026 | Version 2026.10.17

1. Fourteen-day withdrawal

A consumer may withdraw from a distance contract without giving a reason within 14 days after the consumer or a nominated third party other than the carrier receives the goods. Where several items are delivered separately, the period starts when the final item or part is received. For a subscription the period starts on the day on which the consumer or a third party designated by them, other than the carrier, takes possession of the first delivered goods.

Send an unequivocal notice before the deadline:

• online at https://evolved.sk/en/withdrawal,
• by email to info@evolved.sk,
• by post to evolved s. r. o., Valaská Belá 482, 972 28 Valaská Belá, Slovak Republic.

The online form allows the order, contact details, items and withdrawal statement to be supplied. You can also exercise the right of withdrawal online using the function “Withdraw from contract here” at https://evolved.sk/en/withdrawal, available without signing in from the footer of every page. If you use this option, we will provide you without delay, on a durable medium (for example by email), with an acknowledgement of receipt of the withdrawal including its content and the date and time it was sent. Withdrawal cannot be rejected merely because the consumer did not use our model form.

For a subscription, withdrawal from the subscription contract ends the subscription; you can also withdraw before the first delivery. If you withdraw only from some delivered packages, the subscription continues unless you state that you are withdrawing from the whole contract. Taking possession of further deliveries does not start a new period; beyond the law, however, we accept the return of an unopened package from any further delivery if you notify us within 14 days of receiving it. You can also cancel the subscription at any time under Article 11 of the Terms and Conditions. Cancellation is not withdrawal: it stops payments and deliveries not yet paid; a delivery already paid for is still delivered.

2. Model notice

To: evolved s. r. o., Valaská Belá 482, 972 28 Valaská Belá, info@evolved.sk
I give notice that I withdraw from my contract for the following goods: [goods]
Order or subscription number: [number]
Ordered / received on: [date]
Consumer name and address: [details]
Date: [date]
A signature is required only for a paper form.

3. Returning goods

Send or hand over the goods within 14 days after withdrawal. Do not send cash on delivery. We bear the direct return cost. After receiving your withdrawal we email you a prepaid return label to download and print, so returning the goods is free for you. If you choose to ship the goods yourself to the registered-office address, we reimburse the documented postage.

Original retail packaging and a paper invoice are not general conditions of withdrawal. The goods must be safely packed. The consumer is liable only for diminished value caused by use beyond what is needed to establish their nature and functioning.

4. Exceptions

Withdrawal does not apply in statutory cases, including:

• goods made to the consumer's specifications or clearly personalised,
• goods liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly,
• sealed goods that are not suitable for return for health protection or hygiene reasons after unsealing,
• digital content not supplied on a tangible medium, where its supply began with your express consent and with your declaration that you were informed you thereby lose the right of withdrawal. For an ebook you confirm that sentence at checkout before payment, and we repeat its wording in the order confirmation.

For a food supplement, the exception for sealed goods applies only after a genuine hygiene or safety seal is broken. Opening a shipping box or an intact outer retail box does not by itself remove the right. For a subscription, this exception is assessed for each package separately.

5. Refund

Within 14 days after receiving withdrawal, we refund the price and the cost of our least expensive standard delivery offer. A premium chosen by the consumer is not refunded. We use the original payment method unless another free method is agreed.

For goods, we may withhold the refund until we receive the goods or the consumer supplies evidence of dispatch. This does not affect lawful set-off for proven diminished value.

6. Defect complaint

A defect complaint is different from withdrawal without reason. Notify the defect within two months after discovering it and no later than the end of the statutory defect-liability period by emailing info@evolved.sk or writing to the registered office with a description, requested remedy and proof of purchase. A photograph can speed assessment but is not always mandatory. Other credible proof can replace a receipt.

We are liable under the Civil Code for a defect existing on delivery that becomes apparent within two years. Subject to statutory conditions, the consumer may obtain repair or replacement and then a proportionate reduction or termination. Termination is unavailable for an insignificant defect.

We provide written acknowledgement and a remedy period. It must not exceed 30 days unless an objective cause outside our control justifies longer. A rejected complaint receives written reasons. For cases governed by the rules effective from 31 July 2026, the first repair extends the defect-liability period once by 12 months.

The seller bears the necessary cost of a justified complaint, including necessary transport. We provide return instructions that avoid significant inconvenience.
