5. Right of Withdrawal (14-Day Cooling-Off Period)
In accordance with Section 1829 of the Czech Civil Code (Act No. 89/2012 Coll.), the consumer has the right to withdraw from the purchase contract without giving a reason within 14 days of receiving the goods.
The goods must be returned unused, undamaged, and in their original packaging to: Václav Kocourek, Pomořanská 486/7, Troja, 181 00 Praha 8, Czech Republic.
The Seller will refund the purchase price within 14 days of receiving the returned goods, using the same payment method as the original transaction.
Exception — engraved products: In accordance with Section 1837(d) of the Czech Civil Code, the right of withdrawal does not apply to goods customized to the consumer's specifications. Pads with engraving (initials or custom text) are made to order according to the Buyer's individual requirements and are therefore excluded from the right of withdrawal.
6. Complaints and Warranty
The Seller is liable for defects in goods in accordance with Sections 2165 et seq. of the Czech Civil Code. The statutory warranty period is 24 months from the date of receipt.
What is not a defect: Natural variations in leather (grain patterns, minor marks, color variations) and the gradual development of patina are natural characteristics of genuine leather and do not constitute a product defect.
How to file a complaint:
- Contact us at hello@deskhide.cz with a description of the defect and attach photographs.
- The Seller will assess the complaint and inform the Buyer of the next steps.
- The complaint will be resolved within 30 calendar days of submission.

The Seller processes the Buyer's personal data in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR). For detailed information, see our Privacy Policy.

9. Product Characteristics
Deskhide pads are made from full-grain genuine leather and handcrafted in a Czech workshop. Each piece is unique — minor variations in color, texture, and grain pattern are a natural characteristic of the material and a mark of authenticity.
Over time, the leather develops a patina, which is a desirable aesthetic quality and a testament to the material's character.
10. Final Provisions
These Terms & Conditions take effect on 20 February 2026.
Matters not governed by these Terms are subject to the provisions of the Czech Civil Code (Act No. 89/2012 Coll.) and other applicable laws of the Czech Republic.
The Seller reserves the right to amend these Terms. The updated version will be published on this page.
