These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern, in accordance with Section 1751(1) of the Czech Civil Code (Act No. 89/2012 Coll.), the mutual rights and obligations between UNITAC™ PROTECTION Advanced Systems s.r.o. as the seller ("Seller" or "We") and you as the buyer ("Buyer" or "You") arising in connection with or based on a purchase contract ("Contract") concluded via our online store. If, based on turnover thresholds under applicable tax law, the Seller becomes a VAT payer, prices, invoices, the cart and these Terms will be updated accordingly without undue delay.

For the purposes of these Terms:

• Goods — all products offered in the online store, in particular ballistic helmets, ballistic plates, covers, textile equipment and other protective and sporting products.
• Ballistic products — Goods whose description includes a ballistic protection level, standard (e.g. NIJ) or ballistic resistance.
• Price — the price of the Goods as shown in the online store, including VAT.
• Shipping cost — the cost of shipping the Goods to the Buyer and any packaging, as shown during checkout.
• Total price — the sum of the Price and the Shipping cost.
• Order — your binding proposal to conclude a Contract with the Seller for the purchase of Goods.
• Consumer — a natural person entering into a Contract for purposes outside their trade, business, craft or profession.
• Business customer — a person entering into a Contract in the course of their trade, business or profession; we also treat anyone who provides a company ID or VAT number in the Order as a Business customer.
• User account — the Buyer's account in the online store, enabling access to order history, data management and faster purchases, as well as to the online withdrawal tool described in Section 8.
• Online store — our e-shop operated at www.unitacprotection.com.

UNITAC™ PROTECTION Advanced Systems s.r.o. sells sporting, tactical and protective equipment within the European Union. We serve both end customers — Consumers (B2C) — and business customers (B2B).

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, our products are not military material, weapons or ammunition under special regulations. Certifications, standards and ballistic ratings are always specified for the individual product.

4.1 How the Contract is formed

The Contract is concluded at a distance via the online store, without the simultaneous physical presence of the parties, using remote communication means.

1. In the online store you select the Goods and add them to the cart using the "Add to cart" button.
2. In the cart you choose your shipping method and payment method and enter your identification and contact details.
3. Before submitting the Order, you can review and correct all entered data.
4. You submit the Order by clicking a button such as "ORDER WITH PAYMENT OBLIGATION". By doing so you confirm that you have read and accepted these Terms, and make a binding proposal to conclude the Contract with us.

4.2 Order confirmation

After sending your Order, you first receive an automatic email confirming that we have received your Order. This email does not constitute acceptance of your offer; it only confirms receipt.

Once we have checked product availability and your data, we will send you a further email confirming the Order. The Contract between you and us is concluded at the moment this confirmation email is delivered.

4.3 Rejection or cancellation of Orders

In the event of an obvious pricing error, we are not obliged to supply the Goods at the incorrect Price, even if you have already received an Order confirmation. We will contact you, offer the Goods at the correct Price, and the Contract will only be concluded if you accept that offer.

You may register a User account in our online store, from which you can view your order history, manage your data and use a faster checkout.

• You must provide accurate and up-to-date information and update it without undue delay whenever it changes.
• Access to your account is protected by a username and password; you are responsible for keeping these credentials confidential.
• The User account is personal and must not be shared or made available to third parties.
• We may cancel the account, in particular if it has been inactive for a longer period or is being used contrary to these Terms or the law.

6.1 Price and Total price

Prices of Goods in the online store are shown including VAT and all statutory charges. The Total price is always displayed in the cart before you submit the Order, including Shipping cost.

6.2 Accepted payment methods

• card payments via payment gateway,
• PayPal and other available digital wallets,
• bank transfer,
• other payment methods where offered in the cart.

Payment details (e.g. bank account, reference) will be provided in the Order confirmation. For bank transfers, the Total price is usually due within 3 days; if payment is not received on time, we may cancel the Order.

6.3 Retention of title

Title to the Goods passes to the Buyer only upon full payment of the Total price and handover of the Goods.

7.1 Shipping methods

As standard we use the following carriers: GLS, DPD, Packeta, and other partners depending on the destination country. We deliver within the EU. The currently available shipping options and prices are shown in the cart.

7.2 Delivery time

Goods are dispatched without undue delay after receipt of payment (unless expressly stated otherwise, e.g. for pre-orders). Delivery time depends on the destination country, chosen carrier and product availability.

7.3 Accepting Goods and inspecting the shipment

Upon delivery, we recommend checking the condition of the outer packaging. In case of visible damage, you should immediately raise this with the carrier (damage report) and notify us as well.

7.4 Transfer of risk

• Consumer (B2C): the risk of accidental loss or damage passes to you when you take possession of the Goods.
• Business customer (B2B): the risk passes to you once the Goods are handed over to the first carrier.

8.1 Right of withdrawal for consumers

If you are a Consumer, you have the right to withdraw from a distance Contract without giving any reason within 30 days from the day you receive the Goods, in accordance with EU law and the Czech Civil Code.

If the Order consists of multiple items or partial deliveries, the withdrawal period starts from receipt of the last item or partial delivery.

8.2 How to exercise the right of withdrawal

You can withdraw from the Contract in any of the following ways, all of which are equally valid:

9.1 General provisions

12.2 No absolute protection

No protective or ballistic product offers 100% protection. Stated ballistic protection levels and performance apply only under the test conditions used during certification (type of ammunition, velocity, distance, angle of impact, etc.).

12.4 Marketing and environmental claims

We only use environmental, durability or repairability claims (e.g. "eco", "sustainable", "climate neutral") where they are specific and can be substantiated. Generic or unverifiable claims and misleading sustainability labels or filters are avoided in product descriptions, banners and campaigns.

12.5 Accessibility

We aim for our online store, including the ordering process, forms and key documents, to be accessible to persons with disabilities. If you encounter an accessibility barrier, please contact us at contact@unitacprotection.com so we can address it.

12.7 Ballistic testing

Any private ballistic testing with live ammunition outside certified laboratories is carried out solely at the Buyer's risk and leads to immediate termination of any contractual warranty. The Seller is not liable for any consequences of such testing.

12.8 PPE and Regulation (EU) 2016/425

Products that are not explicitly designated as personal protective equipment (PPE) under Regulation (EU) 2016/425 must not be marketed as PPE or used in situations where certified PPE is legally required.
