- b) the goods are suitable for the purpose for which the buyer requires them and to which the seller has agreed and for the purpose for which goods of this type are usually used, also with regard to the rights of third parties, legal regulations, technical standards or codes of conduct of the given industry, if there are no technical standards,

By guaranteeing the quality, the seller undertakes that the goods will be suitable for use for the usual purpose for a certain period of time or that they will retain their usual properties. The quality guaranty applies only to the goods for which it has been agreed or for which the minimum usability or durability has been indicated. If no quality guarantee is provided, the general statutory liability of the seller for defective performance shall apply. The seller has obligations from defective performance at least to the extent that the obligations from defective performance of the manufacturer persist.
7.2. The guaranty period for goods which have the nature of a cosmetic product is determined by the date until which the cosmetic product stored under appropriate conditions will continue to fulfill its original function ("date of minimum durability"). To claim the guaranty the buyer must comply with the conditions under which this durability is guaranteed. In the case of cosmetic products for which an indication of the minimum durability is not mandatory, the indication of the period for which the product is safe after opening and can be used without harming the health of the consumer is marked with the symbol of an “open cup”.

The provisions of this article of the Conditions do not apply (i.) to goods sold at a lower price for a defect for which a lower price was agreed, (ii.) to wear and tear of goods caused by their normal use, (iii.) for used goods to a defect corresponding to the extent of its previous use, or (iv.) if it follows from the nature of the goods. A buyer shall not have the right arising from a defective performance if, before the takeover of the goods, he was aware that the goods had a defect, or if it was caused by the buyer himself.
7.5. The guaranty period starts from the delivery of the goods to the buyer; if the goods have been dispatched according to the contract, it commences when the goods reached their destination.
7.6. Unless stated otherwise in the Articles 7.1.-7.4. of the Conditions or in the laws in force, then the buyer is entitled to assert his right arising from a defect which manifests in goods within twenty four months from the takeover under § 2165 of the Civil Code. In case there is a defect within one year from the takeover, the product is presumed to have been defective upon takeover. If the defect in goods was legitimately applied by the buyer to the seller, the period for exercising the rights arising from the defective performance or the warranty period does not run for the period during which the buyer cannot use the defective goods.
7.7. The buyer must exercise rights from defective performance no later than within the period specified in the Civil Code. If a quality guaranty is provided, the buyer must exercise his rights within the guaranty period. To remove the defect, the seller will take over the goods at his own costs.

The defect must be described and the seller recommends that the buyer concurrently with the description proves to the seller the purchase of goods and fills in the form available in the store: http://www.purityvision.cz/complaints/. The seller is further entitled to request photo documentation of the defect.
According to his choice, the buyer can demand the delivery of a new product without a defect or the repair of the product, unless the chosen method of removing the defect is impossible or disproportionately expensive compared to the other. If the buyer does not notify which right he is exercising, then he agrees that the defect will be eliminated by the delivery of the missing product or the replacement of the defective product. The seller can refuse to remove the defect if it is impossible or disproportionately expensive, especially with regard to the importance of the defect and the value that the product would have without the defect.
The seller is obliged to issue to the buyer a written confirmation containing the date of the complaint, the content of the complaint and what right of the buyer has been chosen. Further the seller is obliged to confirm the date and way of handling the complaint including the fulfillment of the repair and its duration, or a written justification for rejecting of the complaint, as the case may be. This obligation also applies to other persons designated by the seller to perform the repair.
The seller will remove the defect within a reasonable time after it has been pointed out in such a way that it does not cause significant difficulties for the buyer, taking into account the nature of the product and the purpose for which the buyer purchased the product, the seller will handle the consumer's complaint no later than 30 days after its proper application.
The buyer may demand a reasonable discount or withdraw from the contract if the seller refused to remove the defect or did not remove it according to § 2170 paragraphs 1 and 2 of the Civil Code and/or if the defect appears repeatedly and/or if the defect is a material breach of the contract and/ or, if it is apparent from the seller's statement or from the circumstances that the defect will not be remedied within a reasonable time or without considerable inconvenience to the buyer. The reasonable discount is determined as the difference between the value of the item without a defect and the defective item received by the buyer. If the buyer withdraws from the contract, the seller will return the purchase price to the buyer without undue delay after receiving the item or after the buyer proves to him that he has sent the item.
In the event that the solution of the complaint is an exchange, the buyer should return the defective goods to the seller in the original packaging in which the substance for consumption is located (cup, glass container, plastic box, bag, etc.).
7.9. If, for objective reasons, it is not possible to settle a properly applied and acknowledged complaint by exchanging the item or delivering the missing item, the seller will provide the buyer and if the buyer does not withdraw from the contract, depending on the extent of the defect, either a reasonable discount or refund of the purchase price. Whoever has a right from defective performance is also entitled to compensation for the costs purposefully incurred in exercising this right. However, if the buyer does not exercise the right to compensation within one month after the expiry of the period in which the defect must be pointed out, the court will not grant the right if the seller objects that the right to compensation was not exercised in time.
