9. Final Provisions

The Terms and Conditions are valid and effective from the date of publication on WWW.VINNOCHECK.COM. The wording of the T&C may be continuously modified, with the valid wording being the one that the User agreed to by making a binding Order and payment for the Service.

An unregistered user in the position of a consumer has the right to withdraw from the Contract concluded remotely within fourteen days from the date of conclusion of the Contract – by making the payment for the Service. An unregistered user in the position of a consumer expressly requests VINNOCHECK.COM to provide the service within the period in which the Civil Code allows them to withdraw from the Contract, as VINNOCHECK.COM usually provides the Service within this period. If the Service was provided to the unregistered user by VINNOCHECK.COM within this period, the unregistered user does not have the right to withdraw from the Contract within this period. Other rights of the unregistered user to withdraw from the Contract are not affected.

Relationships and any disputes that arise will be resolved exclusively according to the laws of the Republic of Latvia and will be resolved by the competent courts of the Republic of Latvia.

Disputes can also be resolved out of court. In such a case, the User can contact an out-of-court dispute resolution entity, such as the Latvian Trade Inspection Authority, or resolve the dispute online through the designated ODR platform.

Before proceeding to out-of-court dispute resolution, VINNOCHECK.COM recommends that the User first use the contact with VINNOCHECK.COM to resolve the situation.

These T&C were published on February 22, 2024, and are valid and effective from this moment.
