- Preliminary biological age study
To be eligible for the trial period, before starting to use the HOGO Sleep System, the Customer must undergo an initial biological age study, in cooperation with the Complutense University of Madrid, in which immune parameters will be studied including the measurement of: neutrophil function, lymphocyte function and Natural Killer activity.
The Customer must confirm to HOGO a willingness to undergo this biological age study by sending an email to HOGO with proof of payment of the first 50% of the price of the products as indicated in Clause 4.4 above, provided that this first payment includes payment of 50% of the cost of the study.
Once the quote has been accepted by the Customer and the first payment corresponding to 50% of the price of the products has been made, HOGO will contact the Customer by telephone or email to schedule the date and time of the first analysis that, unless the Customer requests otherwise, will be carried out at the Customer’s home by a qualified healthcare professional.
The first analysis will in any case be carried out before the Customer receives the HOGO Sleep System and may be carried out on the same day as the delivery of the HOGO Sleep System.
Once HOGO has contacted the relevant department of the Complutense University of Madrid, HOGO must inform the Customer by telephone or email of the definitive date of the first analysis.
The estimated time for obtaining the results of the analysis is two (2) months.

The procedure for scheduling the date and time of the analysis and its performance will be the same as indicated in paragraph (a) above.
The result of the second biological age study will be sent to the Customer directly by the Complutense University of Madrid.
- Comparison between the biological age studies performed
If between the first and second biological age study there is no improvement in the parameters, i.e. no decrease in the Customer’s biological age, and provided that the Customer does not fall within the exempt cases indicated in section 9.3.4 below, the Customer may return the HOGO Sleep System purchased by following the procedure in this Clause.
- Exceptions to the contractual right to withdraw in the absence of a decrease in the biological age
There are certain factors that may affect the Customer’s biological age that are unrelated to the use of the HOGO Sleep System. These factors may cause the Customer’s biological age to remain the same or increase in comparison with the biological age resulting from the initial assessment.
Therefore, even if there is no decrease in the Customer’s biological age between the first and second study, the Customer will not be entitled to return the HOGO Sleep System if the Customer is in one or more of the following situations:

In this communication, the Customer must include a copy of the biological age analysis carried out.

- The odours of the mattress during the first days of use, as new products can produce a certain odour that disappears after a few days.
- Upon receipt of the Customer’s statement of non-conformity of the product in accordance with the terms in this Clause 10, HOGO will contact the Customer and the technical service will, if necessary, visit the Customer’s home.
- The cost of a visit after the product’s warranty period or if the complaint is not covered by the warranty will be communicated when the complaint is made, as a travel cost.
- The cost of repairing the product outside the warranty period or in the case of circumstances not covered by the warranty, will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
- COMMERCIAL WARRANTY
Without prejudice to the legal warranty referred to in Clause 10 above, HOGO sleep systems are covered by a commercial warranty subject to the following conditions:
11.1. Guarantor details

Tax Identification Number B-87903746
Address: Madrid, Calle Pozuelo de Zarzón, número 4.
Customer service telephone number: 917 55 88 29

11.2. Territorial scope
The commercial warranty will apply to all of Spain and the rest of the world.
11.2. Elements covered by the commercial warranty and term
Under the commercial warranty, HOGO will be responsible for repairing or replacing the following elements during the period set out below: ¡

Textile materials: wool, cotton, cashmere, coconut fibre and patented graphite and silver mesh | 30 years |

Articulated bed base | 5 years |
The warranty period will commence on the date of receipt of the HOGO Sleep System.
11.3. Warranty in favour of the original Customer
The warranty is only valid for the original customer who purchased the product directly from HOGO.
11.4. Exclusion clauses
Damage resulting from the use or wear and tear of the purchased Sleep System is excluded from the warranty coverage.
Claims arising from improper or negligent use of the purchased Sleep System will also be excluded from warranty coverage.
Improper or negligent use of the Sleep System will be considered to be all the uses specified as such in the Manual of recommendations for the use and maintenance of the product that will be given to the Customer at the time of delivery of the Sleep System.
By way of example and without limitation, the following will be considered improper or negligent use of the Sleep System and therefore will not be covered by the commercial warranty:
- Covering the base of the system with an external structure that modifies the original configuration of the System.
- Breakage or deformation of the articulated bed base as a result of repeatedly sitting on the ends of the System.
- Damage to the articulated bed base as a consequence of lying down or jumping on it abruptly.
11.5. Procedure
11.5.1. Notifying HOGO
To use the commercial warranty, the Customer must notify HOGO of the damage by (i) registered post with acknowledgement of receipt; (ii) by certified fax or any other reliable means of communication to the postal address given in section 11 of this Clause 11; or (iii) by email at hello@hogo.s.nomatter.dev/us.
In this notice, the Customer must describe the damage and attach images or recordings of the damage.
HOGO must be notified of the damage within one (1) month of noticing the damage or when the damage should have been noticed.
11.5.2. Assessment of the damage. Repair or replacement. Expenses.
Once the complaint has been received, HOGO will analyse the alleged problem as soon as possible and must inform the Customer of the result of its analysis.
If the damage to the elements of the Sleep System is covered by the commercial warranty, HOGO will determine whether the damage is to be repaired or whether it is necessary to replace one or more elements.
In that case, HOGO will bear the costs of repair or replacement of the elements of the HOGO Sleep System covered by the warranty.
If HOGO does not have materials identical to the original when the complaint is received, HOGO will use materials of equal or higher value than those used, failing which HOGO will reimburse the Customer for the difference in cost.
If the damage caused is not covered by the warranty, the original purchaser must pay the costs incurred as a result of the complaint.
- REPAIR
HOGO guarantees the availability of replacement parts for Sleep Systems for a period of ten (10) years after the product ceases to be manufactured.
- FORCE MAJEURE
Neither the Customer nor HOGO will be liable for any delays or non-compliance that may occur in the delivery of the products or the payment of their price due to causes beyond their control as defined by Spanish legislation (“Force Majeure“).
In any case, the following will be considered causes of Force Majeure:
- a shortage or reduction of raw materials required by HOGO for the manufacture of products;
- delays or non-performance caused by HOGO’s suppliers of goods or services;
- delays or non-performance resulting from epidemics or pandemics such as COVID-19.
The party aggrieved by a Force Majeure event must inform the other party of the details of the event as soon as possible and upon becoming aware of it.
The Parties will use all reasonable efforts to mitigate the effects of the Force Majeure cause.
Either Party may terminate the purchase contract upon written notice to the other Party if the cause of Force Majeure continues for more than six (6) months.
- LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
HOGO’s liability will be limited in the following cases:
- If the product chosen is not as displayed on the Website due to problems of resolution, the browser used or other technical problems.
In this respect, HOGO takes all measures to provide a faithful display of its products, but it cannot be held responsible for any slight differences or inaccuracies that may exist.
If the Customer is not satisfied with the product received, the Customer may exercise the right to withdraw from the purchase in accordance with Clause 8 above.
- In general, HOGO limits its liability to that established in Royal Legislative Decree 1/2007, of 16 November, which approved the revised text of the Consumer Rights Act and other complementary laws, and therefore will not bear any expenses for management costs, expectation loss, lost profits, loss of business opportunities or any loss of income or sales by the Customer.
- RESERVATION OF RIGHTS
HOGO reserves the right to cancel or refuse any orders from a Customer with whom there is a dispute regarding payment of a previous order or who presents a risk.
HOGO reserves the right to change the prices of its products, subject to Clause 5.
HOGO reserves the right to verify the personal information provided by the Customer and to take any measures it deems necessary to verify that those who have provided their personal date are the holders of the bank accounts used for payment. This verification may take the form of a request for proof of identity, address and/or bank documents.
HOGO reserves the right to modify these Standard Terms of Business without prejudice to purchases already made, which will not be affected by those modifications.
- OBLIGATIONS OF THE CUSTOMER
The Customer must use our products correctly and will be solely liable for any damage that may be caused to HOGO or third parties as a result of a lack of due care or wilful misconduct by the Customer.
By accepting these Standard Terms of Business, the Customer accepts responsibility for the truthfulness and accuracy of the data and information provided to us in connection with the conclusion of the product purchase contract, in particular the delivery information, as this may cause problems in the logistics of HOGO and third parties.

- GOVERNING LAW.
The Parties agree that the law applicable to the Purchase Contract between HOGO and Customer will be Spanish law.
Without prejudice to the choice of governing law, the law of the country of the consuming Customer’s habitual residence will apply.
- BUSINESS DAYS
Days will be classified as business days if they are classified as such in the city of Madrid.
- DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Any disputes that may arise between the Customer and HOGO as a result of a breach of the standard terms of business will be governed by applicable Spanish law.
If any of these Standard Terms of Business are ruled void or inapplicable, that term will be deemed not to have been made and will not affect the validity of the rest of the Standard Terms of Business.
The Customer is informed that there is an EU platform called the Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform for online out-of-court resolution of disputes relating to contractual obligations arising from sales contracts or the provision of services concluded online between a Customer and a trader resident in the European Union, through the intervention of an alternative resolution entity.
