- The User is obliged to assert rights for Program defects immediately after discovering the defect or after being able to discover the defect with ordinary care.

- When selling consumer goods, the period for asserting rights for defective performance is set at 24 months, but a longer period may be established by declaration in the warranty certificate, on its packaging, or in advertising. If a warranty longer than 24 months is provided in this way, the Provider, as the seller, determines the conditions and scope of the extended warranty in the form of a declaration in the warranty certificate or special terms and conditions, and if not so determined, the provisions of the Civil Code on quality warranty apply to defects arising after the expiration of 24 months after receiving the goods. The seller's liability for defects does not extend to normal wear and tear of the item (or its parts) caused by use.

Appropriateness for these purposes is assessed, for example, by the fact that the defect cannot be removed by repair, or such repair appears to be financially or time-wise uneconomical. c) Right to withdraw from the contract – can be used when it is not possible to repair the item and it is not possible to deliver new goods or replace its component (if the conditions for this right are met). Furthermore, this right can be used if the goods have a larger number of defects or cannot be properly used due to repeated occurrence of defects after repair. d) If the User as a buyer does not withdraw from the contract or does not assert the right to delivery of a new item without defects, replacement of its component, or repair of the item, they may demand a reasonable discount. The User as a buyer has the right to a reasonable discount even if the seller cannot deliver a new item without defects, replace its component, or repair the item, as well as if the seller does not remedy the situation within a reasonable time or if remedying would cause considerable difficulties to the consumer.
- The warranty period and rights arising from it for all Users as buyers who are not consumers apply to the extent determined by the specific importer or manufacturer. If not so determined by the importer or manufacturer, the rights arising from the quality warranty according to § 2113 et seq. of the Civil Code apply.
