Refund and Return Policies

General Terms and Conditions GetTested offers a wide range of health analyses to individuals and companies. We collaborate with several subcontractors specializing in medical laboratory operations for the analysis of samples.

Last updated: May 20, 2023

To order our analyses, you must be at least 18 years old; individuals under the age of 18 need parental consent. GetTested is not a substitute for traditional healthcare. In case of any problems, you should always contact a healthcare professional. By placing your order, you accept our terms of purchase.

Test Results
You will receive your test results digitally through the login you created when you registered your test. The turnaround time varies depending on the analysis. Information on the specific turnaround time for your analysis can be found on the product page. You, as the customer, are responsible for registering your unique test ID in order to receive your results. Your results are sent encrypted with ID verification for maximum security. Shipping and Delivery Terms Shipping costs apply.

Our products are sent to the address you provided when placing your order. You, as the customer, are responsible for providing the correct address details when ordering. If you have not received your order, we recommend first tracking the shipment via the carrier’s website, for example, via Instabox or PostNord. Double-check that the address in your order confirmation is correct – for example, that the house or apartment number is not missing. If you have not received your delivery within 10 business days, please contact us via chat for the fastest assistance.

Incomplete Address
If the address on the order is incomplete and the delivery could not be carried out as a result, you must contact us within two weeks so we can assist you further. If we are contacted within this time period, we can resend the order, but you, as the customer, will be responsible for the shipping cost. If you prefer a refund instead, we can offer a 50% refund of the order value.

Prices and Payment
All prices are stated in EUR, including VAT. Payment is made by card via the payment provider Stripe, which accepts VISA, Mastercard, or AMEX.

Right of Withdrawal
As a customer, you have a 14-day right of withdrawal. The withdrawal period starts from the day you receive your order according to the tracking link in your delivery confirmation email.

The right of withdrawal for lab tests only applies if the test has not been sent to the laboratory for analysis.

The right of withdrawal for rapid tests only applies to unused tests where the packaging is unopened.

To exercise your right of withdrawal, please contact us via our website chatbot for further instructions. If the test is not returned complete and in its original condition, we reserve the right to deduct an amount corresponding to the material cost from the refund.

If your withdrawal request is approved, we will refund you within 30 days from the date you received the item according to the order’s tracking link. Shipping and return costs are paid by the customer and are non-refundable.

Unregistered Test
If you have sent your lab test for analysis but forgot to register it, the test will be discarded as the laboratory cannot analyze unregistered tests. If you contact us within 2 months from the date the test was sent in, we can send you a new test kit at a cost of 10 EUR (shipping not included). If more than 2 months have passed, you will need to purchase the test again at full price.

For DNA tests, which have a longer analysis time, the same conditions apply after 4 months.

Important Information Regarding Rapid Tests
Rapid tests provide a preliminary screening result and are designed to indicate whether further investigation may be necessary. Although the tests are reliable when used correctly, they do not replace laboratory diagnostics. A complete medical diagnosis should always be made by a healthcare provider, based on clinical assessment and, where applicable, confirmatory laboratory tests.

Note: Differences between results from rapid tests and subsequent laboratory tests may occur due to factors such as timing of sampling, test sensitivity, or biological variation. A positive result from a rapid test should always be interpreted as an indication that further testing is needed – not as a definitive diagnosis. For confirmation and proper medical guidance, we strongly recommend contacting a healthcare provider.

Tests showing the control line (C) are considered valid, meaning the test procedure has worked correctly. Used valid tests are considered consumed and cannot be returned or refunded. We are not responsible for results affected by improper handling or failure to follow the included instructions.

If all instructions have been followed correctly but your test does not show the control line (C) and gives an unclear result, please contact us. We are happy to help determine whether the test was performed correctly or if the product may be defective.

Complaints

In the event of a dispute, we follow the recommendations of the National Board for Consumer Disputes.
