24. Price Adjustments

Alarmwear have the right to adjust the fee for services that run until further notice.

If you do not want to accept the change, you have the right to terminate the service at no extra cost by the day the change takes effect. You will not be affected by the price change during the notice period.

25. Force majeure

Party is exempt from the obligation to compensate for damage or to fulfill certain obligation if the damage or failure has its basis in obstacles beyond the control of the party ("Force Majeure") and the circumstance prevents, significantly complicates, or delays the fulfillment of such obligation. The same applies if the damage or failure is due to delayed deliveries from our subcontractor caused by Force Majeure. Such as Force Majeure can be considered government action or omission, newcomer or amended legislation, circumstances that we do not have control over, e.g., switching or shutting down of mobile networks or broadband, disruptions of the system's radio traffic between the various components or disruption of other technical equipment and work conflict, blockade, war, riots, sabotage, extreme weather conditions, lightning strike, fire, explosion, flood, pandemic, epidemic, specific events related to covid-19 and the Corona pandemic, natural disaster or accident.

26. Warranty and Complaints

We want You as a Customer to be satisfied!
After you have received the products, we recommend that you check as soon as possible whether the delivery corresponds to the order confirmation, if the products have been damaged during transport or if the products otherwise have errors or defects.

If there is any error in the services or products and the error was found at the time of delivery, please contact our customer service via kundtjanst@alarmwear.se. As soon as possible, after we receive your complaint we review the matter to identify the problem with the aim of finding an appropriate solution through us or through our subcontractors and partners. Alarmwear reserves the right to determine what is considered an appropriate solution in each individual situation.

If the products have errors or defects, you may, depending on the circumstances, demand that the defect should be rectified, demand a new delivery, price reduction, compensation, or the cancellation of the purchase. The buyer may also demand a shipment or have the goods repaired if this can be done without unreasonable cost to the seller. Notification of errors and defects in the products can be made to Alarmwear orally or in writing. It must happen within a reasonable time after you discover or should have detected the error or defect.

The warranty time is one year.

If you wish to complaint a product after the expiry of the warranty period, you can do this up to three years after the time of purchase. The complaint must be directed to the seller, that is Alarmwear Sweden AB or the Partner in cases where the item has not been sold by Alarmwear Sweden AB.

27. Right to Withdraw

As a consumer, you have the right to terminate the agreement without specific reasons, if applicable within 14 days of the conclusion of the agreement, in accordance with current consumer legislation.

You as a consumer exercise the right of withdrawal most easily by contacting our customer service via kundtjanst@alarmwear.se and clearly indicate that you want to cancel the agreement. You can also withdraw by using the Swedish Consumer Agency's standard form which is available through the link: https://publikationer.konsumentverket.se/kontrakt-och-mallar/angerblankett.
If you withdraw from the agreement, this must be notified to both Alarmwear and Klarna. Klarna will then refund what you have paid us. This is done without undue delay and in any case no later than 14 bank days from the day Klarna is notified of your decision to withdraw the agreement. The right of withdrawal means that the agreement is terminated, and the services will be terminated, which also means that the two received hardware purchases immediately must be returned to Alarmwear and you must delete and immediately stop using the mobile application.

To use the right of withdrawal, the product must be returned to Alarmwear in virtually the same amount and condition as when you received it. The seller is entitled to compensation for depreciation due to the fact that the buyer has handled the goods to a greater extent than necessary. All products must be returned to the seller within a reasonable time, inter alia, within 14 days of your notice of exercise of the right of withdrawal. The customer is always responsible for the shipping cost of the return.

The right of withdrawal does not, however, apply to the following types of goods: (a) goods that have been manufactured in accordance with your instructions or which have otherwise received a clear personal touch; (b) sealed audio or video recordings, games or computer programs (including technical seals by, for example, serial numbers), where the sealing has been broken; or (c) digital content delivered otherwise than on a physical medium (such as computer programs, applications, games, music, videos or texts where access is by download or streaming).

By accepting these General Terms and Conditions, you agree that the right of withdrawal does not apply to digital content delivered in any way other than on a physical medium. The right of withdrawal thus does not apply in this case when the mobile application has been delivered and downloaded in connection with the purchase.
