About the technology:
Coding with Kotlin means less hassle and more productivity. This JVM-based language offers an expressive syntax, a strong intuitive type system, and great tooling support; plus seamless interoperability with existing Java code, libraries, and frameworks. Kotlin is general purpose, safe, pragmatic, and the premier language of Android development. While the language has grown beyond its initial Java-centric focus, you can still use and integrate with your favorite Java tools and libraries, including Spring.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
