  2. Withdrawal from the contract may occur by submitting a declaration of withdrawal from the Contract by filling out the form, which can be downloaded HERE, and sending it to the email address contact@wishbone.pl. 2a. The Consumer may also submit a declaration of withdrawal from the contract electronically, via the "Withdrawal from the contract" section available on the Seller's website without the need for logging in. After providing order identification data (e.g., order number, email address, and surname), the Consumer can submit a declaration of withdrawal for the entire order or part of it and receives an automatic confirmation of receipt of the declaration along with the date and time of its submission. A declaration submitted in this way is considered submitted at the time of sending. The above does not prejudice the Consumer's right to withdraw from the contract through other unambiguous declarations, in particular by email or using the form referred to in paragraph 2. The submission of a declaration of withdrawal does not prejudge the right of withdrawal; in the case of Products excluded under Article 38 point 3 and 5 of the Consumer Rights Act (§ 11 paragraph 11), the withdrawal remains ineffective despite the correct submission of the declaration. The electronic method of withdrawal was made available in accordance with the requirements of Directive (EU) 2023/2673 of the European Parliament and of the Council.
  3. To meet the deadline for withdrawal from the Contract, the declaration of withdrawal from the Contract should be sent in the manner indicated in paragraphs 2 or 2a before the expiration of 14 days from the date of receipt of the Product.
  4. In the event of withdrawal from a sales contract, the contract is considered null and void with respect to the Product to which the withdrawal applies.
  5. In the event of withdrawal from the Contract, the Seller shall immediately reimburse the Consumer for all payments made by them, including the costs of delivery of the item in the manner indicated in the declaration of withdrawal, no later than 14 days from the date of receipt of the Consumer's declaration of withdrawal from the Contract.
  6. In the event of withdrawal from a Contract that was fully or partially paid for with a Wishbone gift card, funds equivalent to the value of the used gift card will be refunded exclusively in the form of a Wishbone gift card and are not eligible for monetary refund.
  7. In the event of withdrawal from the Contract, the Product should be returned by the Consumer immediately, no later than 14 days from the date on which the Consumer withdrew from the contract, to the address: Kwiaciarnia Magnolia, ul. Strzegomska 208, 54-432 Wrocław.
  8. The cost of returning the Product to the Seller shall be borne by the Consumer.
  9. The Seller may withhold the reimbursement of payments made by the Consumer under the Contract until the Product is received from the Consumer or the Consumer provides proof of its return, whichever event occurs first.
  10. The Consumer shall be liable for any decrease in the value of the Product resulting from its use in a manner exceeding what is necessary to ascertain the nature, characteristics, and functioning of the Product, in accordance with Article 34(4) of the Consumer Rights Act. If it is found that the returned Product bears signs of use (in particular: scratches, deformations, oxidation caused by contact with sweat or cosmetics, mechanical damage), the Seller is entitled to deduct from the refund amount an amount corresponding to the decrease in the value of the Product, of which the Consumer will be informed along with justification.
  11. In the event of exceeding the deadlines for withdrawal from the contract specified in this paragraph, the Seller will send the returned Product back to the Consumer at their expense. Failure by the Customer to follow the above-described procedure for withdrawal from the Contract may result in a significant delay in completing the withdrawal procedure, and thus in ordering the refund of funds due to the Customer.
  12. The right to withdraw from a distance contract does not apply to a Consumer with respect to a Contract: a) where the subject of the service is a non-prefabricated item, manufactured according to the Consumer's specifications or intended to satisfy their individualized needs. Products made to individual order – including gold jewelry, hand-forged silver, and all other Products created only after an order is placed, without maintaining inventory – are excluded from the right of withdrawal in accordance with Article 38 point 3 of the Consumer Rights Act. Therefore, they are not subject to return or exchange. Information about a given Product being subject to this exclusion is available on the Product card in the Store; b) where the subject of the service is an item delivered in a sealed package, which cannot be returned after opening the package due to health protection or hygiene reasons, if the package has been opened after delivery (in accordance with Article 38 point 5 of the Consumer Rights Act). Therefore, the return of earrings and other jewelry for pierced body parts is possible only if the Product is in its original, undamaged protective packaging with a hygienic seal. In case of breach of the seal, return or exchange is not possible for hygiene reasons; c) where the subject of the service is an item that deteriorates quickly or has a short shelf life; d) for the provision of services, if the Seller has fully performed the service with the express consent of the Consumer, who was informed before the commencement of the service that after the performance of the service by the Seller, they will lose the right to withdraw from the Contract; e) where the price or remuneration depends on fluctuations in the financial market over which the Seller has no control and which may occur before the deadline for withdrawal from the Contract; f) where the subject of the service are items which, due to their nature, become inseparably combined with other items after delivery; g) where the subject of the service are alcoholic beverages, the price of which was agreed upon at the conclusion of the sales contract, and whose delivery can only take place after 30 days and whose value depends on market fluctuations over which the Seller has no control; h) where the subject of the service are sound or visual recordings or computer programs delivered in a sealed package, if the package has been opened after delivery; i) for the delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines, with the exception of a subscription contract; j) for the supply of digital content that is not recorded on a tangible medium, if the performance of the service has begun with the express consent of the Consumer before the deadline for withdrawal from the contract and after being informed by the Seller about the loss of the right to withdraw from the Contract.
