shall make every effort to fulfil its obligation to establish an effective system for the consideration of complaints and appoint someone whom the customer may contact by phone or email in the event of any problems. Any complaints may be submitted via email to info@maska.si. The complaints procedure is confidential.

The provider is aware that the disproportionality between the economic value of the
claim and the costs incurred in dispute resolution is an essential characteristic of a consumer dispute, at least in the case of judicial proceedings. It is also the main obstacle to the consumer bringing an action before the court. The provider shall therefore make every effort to resolve any dispute amicably.
