PERSONALISED-ORDER SUPPORT

Returns Policy

Clear, transparent return rules for every order.

Genuinely personalised goods that match the contract and any approved proof have no voluntary change-of-mind return. For a confirmed manufacturing defect, transit damage or wrong size, finish or personalisation, report the issue promptly after discovering the issue; we normally provide a free same-photo, same-specification remake or replacement. This additional support channel does not shorten statutory periods or remedies.

Made-to-Order Products

IMPORTANT NOTICE

A print made from your photo or other genuinely individualized instructions may fall within the statutory no-reason withdrawal exception; mere made-to-order production is not enough. We do not offer a voluntary change-of-mind return for a genuinely personalized item that matches the contract and any approved crop or correction proof. Approval of a proof does not affect your remedies if the final item differs from that proof or the contract. If we send a proposed crop or correction, we wait up to 5 business days for your reply. If you approve it, we produce that approved version. If you do not reply within that period, we produce using the original crop submitted with the order, not our proposed correction. Approval never removes remedies if the delivered item differs from the approved proof or the contract.

Quality issue and return procedure

For a defect, transit damage, or wrong size, finish, or personalization, contact us before returning the item

1

Contact Us

Email support@bolotstudio.com promptly with the order number and reasonable evidence, such as photos

2

Wait for instructions

We will verify the issue and tell you whether a physical return is needed; do not send the item before then

3

Follow the agreed next step

If a return is needed, follow the destination and logistics instructions we provide for that case

4

Receive the applicable remedy

Our normal response to a verified defect, transit damage, or wrong size, finish, or personalization is a free remake or replacement using the same submitted or approved photo and agreed specification. Mandatory rights to repair, replacement, price reduction, termination, or refund remain available when their statutory conditions are met.

Withdrawal and quality rights

Verified-quality support process

ADDITIONAL QUALITY SUPPORT

For EU/EEA and UK distance sales where the right applies, non-personalized goods normally have a 14-day no-reason withdrawal or cancellation period and the consumer bears the direct return cost; Canadian and other destination-specific rights vary. Under Article 16(c) of Directive 2011/83/EU, that statutory no-reason right does not apply to goods made to the consumer’s specifications or clearly personalized. For UK consumers, the corresponding cancellation exception is regulation 28(1)(b) of the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013. A print created from the customer’s photo or other genuinely individualized instructions may fall within this exception; mere made-to-order production does not qualify by itself. We do not offer a voluntary change-of-mind return or refund, or a return based only on disliking the result, for a genuinely personalized item that matches the contract and any approved proof. If we send a crop or correction proof and the customer approves it, we manufacture against that proof; approval does not remove any remedy if the final item differs from the approved proof or the contract. For a manufacturing defect, transit damage, or wrong size, finish, or personalization, our normal verified-quality response is a free remake or replacement using the same submitted or approved photo and agreed specification. Mandatory statutory remedies, including repair, replacement, price reduction, termination, and refund when their legal conditions are met, remain unaffected. You may report a manufacturing defect, transit damage, or wrong size, finish, or personalization under Verified quality support promptly after discovering the issue. If we approve a physical return under this support process, Bolot Studio covers its return cost and provides case-specific instructions. If we send a proposed crop or correction, we wait up to 5 business days for your reply. If you approve it, we produce that approved version. If you do not reply within that period, we produce using the original crop submitted with the order, not our proposed correction. Approval never removes remedies if the delivered item differs from the approved proof or the contract. Verified quality support is additional support only; it does not shorten any applicable statutory period for reporting a problem, bringing a claim or obtaining a remedy.

How quality review works

  • You may report a manufacturing defect, transit damage, or wrong size, finish, or personalization under Verified quality support promptly after discovering the issue. Verified quality support is additional support only; it does not shorten any applicable statutory period for reporting a problem, bringing a claim or obtaining a remedy.
  • Provide the order details and reasonable evidence, such as photos
  • If we send a proposed crop or correction, we wait up to 5 business days for your reply. If you approve it, we produce that approved version. If you do not reply within that period, we produce using the original crop submitted with the order, not our proposed correction. Approval never removes remedies if the delivered item differs from the approved proof or the contract.

Custom Products

EU LAW

Under Article 16(c) of Directive 2011/83/EU, the statutory no-reason right of withdrawal does not apply to goods made to the consumer’s specifications or clearly personalized. For UK consumers, the corresponding cancellation exception is regulation 28(1)(b) of the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013. A print created from an uploaded photo or other individual instructions may fall within this exception; mere made-to-order production does not qualify by itself. The exception does not affect statutory remedies for lack of conformity.

For statutory lack of conformity, the consumer may initially choose repair or replacement free of charge, including necessary postage, transport, labour and materials, subject to statutory impossibility and proportionality rules. A proportionate price reduction or contract termination and refund is available when the statutory conditions are met, including refusal or failure to restore conformity, recurrence, or a sufficiently serious lack of conformity.

Voluntary 3-year product guarantee

3 YEARS FROM DELIVERY

Bolot Studio offers a voluntary 3-year product guarantee from delivery for confirmed manufacturing defects and the scoped premature performance losses described below. It applies to consumers and business customers in every country Bolot Studio actually serves and is additional to mandatory destination-specific rights. It applies to accepted orders before, on and after 2026-07-16, subject to the 3-year period measured from delivery.

  • Guarantor: BOLOT Sp. z o.o., ul. Władysława Sikorskiego 6A/10, 44-196 Knurów, Poland; support@bolotstudio.com; phone: +48 797 535 372.
  • Covered goods and territory: every Bolot Studio product sold to a consumer or business customer under an accepted order, in every delivery country actually served by Bolot Studio. It applies to accepted orders before, on and after 2026-07-16, subject to the 3-year period measured from delivery. For a product sold to a consumer in Quebec, this guarantee also benefits any subsequent owner for the remainder of the 3-year period, without limiting statutory rights.
  • Period: 3 years from delivery of the product, not an open-ended or minimum period. Any restart or extension of the period after replacement or another statutory remedy applies only where and to the extent mandatory law governing the claim requires it; it is not an additional voluntary remedy.
  • A manufacturing defect may include premature or abnormal fading, delamination, corrosion or other performance loss where the product was installed, located, used and cared for within its expressly stated intended environment. Coverage and remedy: if a manufacturing defect that manifests during the period is confirmed after a fair assessment, we remake or replace the same product free of charge to the same accepted specification and reship it free of charge.
  • Claim procedure: email support@bolotstudio.com with the order details and reasonable evidence, such as photos. We assess all available information fairly; an internal assessment is not presented as the sole or final determination and does not shift any burden of proof imposed on us by applicable law. Registration is not required, and we do not presume fraud or dishonesty.
  • Costs and timing: contact us before sending the product. We cover necessary delivery and return costs for an accepted warranty claim, including free reshipment. We perform the warranty without undue delay. A fixed time limit applies only where and to the extent mandatory law governing the claim requires it. This voluntary warranty does not promise a refund; any mandatory statutory refund right remains unaffected.
  • Causally limited exclusions: the warranty does not cover a problem to the extent caused by intentional or accidental damage after delivery, incorrect mounting, use or care, normal wear, or unauthorised alterations. Standard photo prints are for dry indoor display only, have no UV laminate, and are not covered for outdoor exposure. Address Sign is the only exterior-capable product and includes a protective UV laminate. The customer selects exactly one Address Sign system: mechanical standoffs or a non-magnetic adhesive kit, each for a compatible facade; the adhesive kit can also be used on a compatible indoor surface. Installation or placement outside the stated compatibility is excluded only to the extent it caused the problem.
  • Production image: we retain the source image for at least 3 years to support a remake. If it is unavailable, the customer may provide it again. An unavailable retained image does not end the warranty.
  • Supplied magnetic mounting for eligible indoor photo prints or selected non-magnetic adhesive mounting for Address Sign: coverage applies when it was installed on a compatible smooth, clean, dry, stable and sealed surface and used in accordance with the installation instructions supplied with the order. Incorrect installation or use is excluded only to the extent it caused the problem. If the mounting fails despite installation and use in accordance with those supplied instructions, the warranty covers a replacement mount and the product damaged by that failure. We may request reasonable, proportionate evidence and discuss the circumstances; we do not presume fraud or reserve arbitrary discretion.
  • Discontinued specification: if the exact material or finish is no longer available, we use the closest equivalent only after the customer agrees, or provide another mutually agreed remedy. Mandatory statutory remedies remain unaffected. A conforming personalised product is not eligible for a voluntary change-of-mind return, but this warranty and mandatory statutory remedies remain available.

This voluntary warranty does not exclude, restrict or suspend mandatory rights. Consumers retain all statutory remedies for lack of conformity; business customers retain any non-waivable rights applicable to their destination and contract.

For a product sold to a consumer in Quebec, select Canada → Quebec → Consumer below. That separate Quebec consumer warranty writing governs this voluntary warranty for that sale, and its exclusions are stated in distinct successive clauses. This generic summary and its combined exclusions do not replace or govern the Quebec consumer writing. Transferability applies only to that consumer writing, not to the Quebec business commitment.

Select each applicable field. We do not infer a legal document from your IP address, page language or browser settings.

Required only when the delivery country is Canada.

Frequently Asked Questions

Contact us promptly about a manufacturing defect, transit damage, or an incorrect size, finish, or personalization, and include reasonable evidence. After assessment, the product is normally remade or replaced free of charge using the agreed photo and specification. This support does not limit any mandatory statutory right or remedy.

Mere made-to-order production does not remove the statutory right of withdrawal. Goods made to your specifications or clearly personalized may fall within the Article 16(c) exception. A genuinely personalized item that matches the contract and any approved proof is not accepted for a voluntary change-of-mind return; statutory conformity rights remain unaffected. If we send a proposed crop or correction, we wait up to 5 business days for your reply. If you approve it, we produce that approved version. If you do not reply within that period, we produce using the original crop submitted with the order, not our proposed correction. Approval never removes remedies if the delivered item differs from the approved proof or the contract.

When a refund is due under a statutory withdrawal or conformity remedy, we process it without undue delay and within the applicable statutory period; the payment provider may need additional processing time. A refund is not our standard commercial response to a quality issue: we normally remake or replace the item, without limiting any statutory right to a refund when its legal conditions are met.

Contact us before sending anything back. If a physical return is needed, we will provide instructions. Necessary return transport for a statutory lack-of-conformity remedy is free of charge; for a valid no-reason withdrawal, the consumer bears the direct return cost unless applicable law provides otherwise. If we approve a physical return under this support process, Bolot Studio covers its return cost and provides case-specific instructions.

A different size or preference requires a new order. If the product lacks statutory conformity, the remedies required by applicable law remain available free of charge when its conditions are met, including repair or replacement and, where applicable, price reduction, contract termination, or a refund.
