These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter the “Terms”) govern the mutual rights and obligations between us as the seller (hereinafter “We”) and you as the buyer (hereinafter “You”) when concluding distance contracts via the online store www.cupranova.com (hereinafter the “E-shop”). Communication between Us and You takes place primarily by means of distance communication.
