12.2.1. The Service Provider reserves the right to make changes to these Terms and Conditions for important reasons, namely: changes in law; changes in payment methods or delivery terms, compliance with legal or regulatory obligations; changes in the scope or form of provided Electronic Services; addition of new Electronic Services; the need to counter unforeseen and immediate threats related to protecting the Online Shop, including Electronic Services and Service Users/Customers against fraud, malware, spam, data breaches or other cybersecurity threats – to the extent that these changes affect the implementation of provisions of these Terms and Conditions.
12.2.2. Notification of proposed changes is sent at least 15 days before the date these changes come into effect, with the provision that changes may be introduced without observing the 15-day notification period in cases where the Service Provider: (1) is subject to a legal or regulatory obligation requiring changes to the Terms and Conditions in a way that makes it impossible to maintain the 15-day notification period; or (2) must exceptionally change its Terms and Conditions to counter an unforeseen and immediate threat related to protecting the Online Shop, including Electronic Services and Service Users/Customers against fraud, malware, spam, data breaches or other cybersecurity threats.
