Submission of an Order constitutes an offer by the Customer to enter into a sales contract.
-
Upon receipt of the Order, the Seller sends confirmation of receipt to the Customer's e-mail address.
-
The sales contract is concluded when the Seller sends the Customer confirmation that the Order has been accepted for processing, unless the messages presented during the purchasing process clearly indicate another legally compliant moment at which the contract is concluded.

-
A Customer who is an Entrepreneur should, where reasonably possible, inspect the shipment upon delivery in the manner customary for shipments of that type and promptly notify the Seller of any transport damage identified. Failure to make such notification does not limit the statutory rights of a Consumer or an Entrepreneur with Consumer Rights.
§ 6. Right of Withdrawal
-
A Consumer and, where provided by law, an Entrepreneur with Consumer Rights may withdraw from a distance contract without giving any reason within 14 days.
-
In the case of a contract for the sale of Goods, the withdrawal period generally begins on the day on which the eligible Customer, or a third party indicated by the Customer other than the carrier, takes possession of the Goods, subject to the rules applicable to partial and recurring deliveries.
-
To exercise the right of withdrawal, the Customer should inform the Seller of their decision by means of an unequivocal statement, in particular:

by e-mail;

in writing to the address indicated by the Seller;
-
using an electronic returns form, where available.
-
-
The Customer may use the model withdrawal form attached to these Terms and Conditions, but is not required to do so.
-
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for the Customer to send the statement before the relevant period expires.

The right of withdrawal does not apply in the circumstances specified by law, in particular to a contract for the supply of non-prefabricated Goods made to the Consumer's specifications or clearly personalised to meet the Consumer's individual needs.
-
The exclusion referred to in paragraph 6 applies only where the statutory conditions for that exclusion are satisfied in the particular case.
§ 7. Effects of Withdrawal
-
In the event of a valid withdrawal from the contract, the Seller refunds to the Customer who is a Consumer or an Entrepreneur with Consumer Rights all payments subject to reimbursement, including the cost of the least expensive standard delivery method offered by the Seller.
-
The refund will be made promptly and no later than 14 days from the date on which the Seller receives the statement of withdrawal.
-
The Seller may withhold the refund until the Goods have been returned or until the Customer provides evidence that the Goods have been sent back, whichever occurs first, unless the Seller has offered to collect the Goods.

The refund will be made using the same payment method used by the Customer, unless the Customer expressly agrees to another method that does not incur any costs for the Customer.
-
The Customer should return the Goods promptly, and in any event no later than 14 days from the date on which the statement of withdrawal was submitted, to the returns address:
K&K Design sp. z o.o., ul. Rezedowa 21, 04-232 Warsaw, Poland. -
The Customer bears the direct cost of returning the Goods unless the Seller has agreed to bear that cost or failed to inform the Customer that the Customer is required to bear it.
-
If, due to the nature or size of the Goods, they cannot normally be returned by post, information on the expected cost of returning them or the estimated maximum amount of that cost should be provided to the Customer before the contract is concluded, in accordance with applicable law.
-
The Customer is liable for any reduction in the value of the Goods resulting from handling beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Goods, subject to any exceptions provided by law.
§ 8. Complaints and Liability for Conformity of Goods with the Contract
-
The Seller is liable to the Consumer and the Entrepreneur with Consumer Rights for the conformity of the Goods with the contract in accordance with the Polish Consumer Rights Act.
-
The Goods should conform to the contract, in particular with respect to their description, type, quantity, quality, completeness, functionality and other characteristics required by law and by the terms of the contract.
-
A complaint may be submitted:
-
using the electronic complaints form, where available;
-
by e-mail to: reklamacje@stepintodesign.pl;
-
in writing to the Seller's address or the designated complaints address.
-
-
It is recommended that the complaint include information enabling the Order to be identified, a description of the non-conformity identified and the Customer's request. Photographs may facilitate the handling of the complaint, but they cannot be treated as a condition for accepting the complaint unless such a requirement is provided by law.
-
The Seller will respond to a complaint submitted by a Consumer or an Entrepreneur with Consumer Rights within the period prescribed by applicable law, as a rule within 14 days of receipt.
-
If the Goods do not conform to the contract, the eligible Customer may request repair or replacement in accordance with the Polish Consumer Rights Act.
-
The Seller will carry out repair or replacement within a reasonable time from the moment it is informed of the lack of conformity and without significant inconvenience to the Customer, taking into account the nature of the Goods and the purpose for which they were purchased.
-
The costs of repair or replacement, including in particular transport, labour and materials, are borne by the Seller where required by law.
-
In the circumstances specified by law, the Customer may make a statement requesting a price reduction or withdrawal from the contract. The Customer may not withdraw from the contract if the lack of conformity of the Goods with the contract is insignificant, subject to the rules and presumptions provided by applicable law.
-
With respect to a Customer who is an Entrepreneur and who is not entitled to consumer rights, the Seller's liability is determined in accordance with the Polish Civil Code, taking into account any specific provisions lawfully agreed with such Customer.
-
A manufacturer's or guarantor's commercial guarantee, where provided, constitutes a separate right and does not limit the Consumer's statutory rights relating to the non-conformity of the Goods with the contract.
§ 9. Reviews of Goods and Order Service
-
Where the Store enables reviews to be published, the Customer may submit a review of the Goods or the handling of an Order using the functionality provided.
-
The Seller informs users whether and how it verifies that published reviews originate from persons who have actually used or purchased the relevant Goods.
-
Where verification is carried out by linking the review to the e-mail address or Order identifier used for the purchase, the review may be labelled as a "verified purchase review" or with an equivalent notice.
-
Reviews for which the purchase could not be verified may be published only where the manner in which they are labelled does not suggest that they originate from verified purchasers.
-
The Seller does not commission or publish fake reviews and does not artificially inflate ratings of Goods.
-
The Seller does not remove reviews solely because they are negative. Reviews may be removed or hidden if they violate the law, these Terms and Conditions or the rights of third parties, contain unlawful, vulgar, abusive or advertising content, spam or personal data of third parties, or are unrelated to the Goods or service being reviewed.
-
If the Seller publishes reviews originating from another online store operated by the Seller or from an external review system, information about the source of the reviews and the method used to verify them should be presented in a manner that does not mislead users.
§ 10. Intellectual Property
-
The content of the Online Store, including in particular texts, photographs, graphics, page layout, visual identity elements and other materials, may be protected under copyright law, industrial property law or other applicable laws.

-
A Customer who publishes a review retains the rights to their statement to the extent that such rights are vested in the Customer under applicable law.
-
To the extent necessary for the publication and use of a review in the Store and in the Seller's promotional materials, the Customer grants the Seller a non-exclusive, royalty-free and territorially unrestricted licence to use the review for the duration of the applicable legal protection, including in particular by recording, reproducing, making it publicly available and using it in information and promotional materials, with due respect for the author's moral rights.
-
The Customer represents that any content published by the Customer does not infringe the rights of third parties and bears responsibility for any unlawful nature of such content in accordance with applicable law.
-
The Seller exercises due diligence to ensure that the Goods, their markings, photographs, visualisations, descriptions and other materials presented in the Online Store do not infringe third-party intellectual property or industrial property rights, including in particular rights to industrial designs, utility models, patents, trade marks and copyright.
-
The Seller does not knowingly offer, promote or display Goods or materials for the purpose of infringing third-party rights. If the Seller receives credible information concerning a possible infringement of such rights, it will review the notification and take measures appropriate to the circumstances and applicable law, including, where appropriate, temporarily suspending the sale or display of the relevant Goods or material until the matter is clarified.
-
Any person or entity that believes that Goods, their design, marking or any material presented in the Online Store infringes its intellectual property or industrial property rights may notify the Seller at info@stepintodesign.pl. Where possible, the notification should enable identification of the right relied upon and the Goods or material concerned and should include information allowing the Seller to verify the notification, in particular the number of the relevant registered right, registration or patent, where one has been granted.
§ 11. Alternative Dispute Resolution
-
A Consumer may use out-of-court complaint handling and redress procedures in accordance with applicable law.

The Customer should use the Goods in accordance with their intended purpose, installation and operating instructions, and all applicable safety information.
-
The provisions of this section do not limit the liability of the Seller or other economic operators arising from mandatory product safety legislation.
§ 13. Final Provisions
-
These Terms and Conditions in their present form are effective as of 17 August 2026.
-
Contracts concluded before the effective date of a new version of these Terms and Conditions are governed by the Terms and Conditions in force at the time the contract was concluded, unless mandatory provisions of law provide otherwise.
-
The Seller may amend these Terms and Conditions for valid reasons, in particular due to changes in applicable law, the scope of services provided, payment or delivery methods, or the functionality of the Store. An amendment to the Terms and Conditions does not affect rights already acquired by Customers.
-
In the case of continuous services provided under these Terms and Conditions, information about amendments will be provided to the Customer in a manner enabling the Customer to review the changes before they take effect and, where required, to terminate the service.

Contracts concluded with the Seller are governed by Polish law, without prejudice to any protection granted to a Consumer under mandatory provisions of the law applicable at the Consumer's habitual residence, where such provisions apply.

Disputes will be resolved by the court having jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law. This provision does not affect special rules governing jurisdiction in matters involving Consumers.
