Upon receiving the returned goods, the Online Store will refund the buyer without delay, but no later than 14 days from receiving the withdrawal notice, all payments received from the buyer under the contract.
The Online Store may withhold the refund until the goods that are the subject of the contract have been returned, or the buyer has provided proof of returning the goods, whichever occurs first.

Safety
It is crucial to follow the usage and safety instructions for the products. Rico OÜ is not responsible for any damage caused by improper use or failure to follow the usage and safety instructions.
Candle Safety Instructions
When using candles, always carefully follow the safety instructions. Safety instructions are provided on the products with relevant pictograms.
- Never leave a burning candle unattended. Although the flame is small, it can cause significant damage. Always ensure that the candle is extinguished when leaving the house or going to bed.
- Keep away from children and pets. Children and pets may accidentally knock over a candle, and their fur or hair may easily catch fire.
- Keep away from flammable objects. Ensure the area around the candle is clear. The candle flame can easily ignite nearby objects. The minimum distance from other objects should be at least 30 cm, and from other candles at least 10 cm.
- Use a heat-resistant base. Place the candle on a heat-resistant surface. Ensure that the candle cannot fall off the base. Suitable bases include stone and glass. A burning candle without a heat-resistant base can damage your furniture.
- Burn the candle until the entire surface melts. Allow enough time for burning, as each candle has a memory. If you extinguish the candle before the entire surface melts, the candle will remember this and burn only within that area in the future.
- Trim the wick to 0.5 cm before the next burn. A flame that is too large can cause soot. Extinguish the candle, trim the wick, and relight it if desired.
- Ensure that no pieces of burnt wick remain in the wax. If pieces of burnt wick fall into the wax, extinguish the candle and remove the pieces with a sharp object.
- Do not throw matches into the candle wax. Never throw matches (even burnt ones) into the wax, as they can reignite.
- Do not burn the candle for more than 2-3 hours at a time.
- Use a snuffer to extinguish the candle. This will prevent wax from splattering and keep the candle’s surroundings clean.
- Do not burn the candle to the very end. For safety reasons, extinguish the candle when 2 cm of wax remains. Burning the last bit can cause the candle glass to become too hot and break.
Right to Submit a Complaint
The Online Store is responsible for any non-compliance or defects in the goods sold to the buyer that were present at the time of delivery and that manifest within two years of the delivery of the goods to the buyer. For the first year, it is assumed that the defect existed at the time of delivery. It is the responsibility of the Online Store to disprove this assumption.
The buyer must notify the Online Store of any defect within two months of its discovery by sending an email to info@amiicandles.ee or calling 56673724.
The Online Store is not responsible for defects that have occurred after the goods have been handed over to the buyer due to the buyer’s actions or inactions (e.g., improper use, accident, etc.) or for normal wear and tear due to regular use.
If the goods purchased from the Online Store have defects for which the Online Store is responsible, the Online Store will repair or replace the defective goods. If the goods cannot be repaired or replaced, the Online Store will refund the buyer all fees incurred under the sales agreement.
The Online Store will respond to the consumer’s complaint in writing or in a form that allows written reproduction within 15 days.
