  • if the Client has not consumed the Service, i.e. performed certain searches of his/her parties, the Company will calculate the amount of the unspent Subscription amount by calculating the number of days of service use and putting that number in proportion to the number of days of Service use in accordance with the selected Subscription model. The refund amount for the unused portion of the Subscription will be obtained by deducting 100% from the percentage described in the previous sentence and adding it to the amount paid for the Subscription. When calculating the unused portion of the Subscription, amounts related to taxes and similar charges according to the issued Invoice or Subscription model will not be taken into account.

The link to the ODR platform is: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/main. The complaint must contain at least:

  • personal data of the Client (name and surname of a natural person or company name if the Client is a legal entity)
  • a detailed description of the event/situation or circumstances that caused dissatisfaction and evidence of the grounds for the complaint and
  • an address for submitting a response.

The Company does not respond to anonymous complaints.

Missing the deadline for submitting a complaint is interpreted as approval of the allegations in the Company's announcement. The Company is not liable for any adverse consequences caused by the Client's delay in submitting a complaint.

In all disputes between the User Account User and the Company arising in connection with the contractual relationship based on the User Account, the User Account User may submit a proposal for mediation to the Mediation Center at the Croatian Chamber of Commerce (address: Rooseveltov trg 2, 10000 Zagreb, internet address: http://www.hgk.hr/centarza-mirenje/o-centruzamirenje), the Mediation Center at the Croatian Mediation Association (Teslina 1/I, 10000 Zagreb, https://hrvatskaudrugazamirenje.wordpress.com) as well as to any other body competent for alternative consumer dispute resolution.

The Company will respond to the User Account User in writing to a duly received complaint within 10 (ten) days from the date of receipt of the written complaint. In cases where the resolution may take longer than expected due to reasons beyond the Company's control, the Company will, within the aforementioned deadline, inform the User Account User of the reasons for the delay and the timeframe (which will not exceed 35 days) in which he can expect a final response.

The Company will conduct an investigation to determine the merits of the complaint or claim and, in the event that the complaint or claim is justified, will act in accordance with the Client's request and legal provisions, i.e. return the amount of the payment transaction increased by the applicable interest immediately, and at the latest by the end of the first business day after receipt of the complaint.
