1 - TERMS OF USE

Unless otherwise specified, the terms of use of this Website set out in this section are generally applicable.

Additional conditions of use or access applicable in particular situations are expressly indicated in this document.

By using this Website, the User declares to satisfy the following requirements:

_ Confirm your legal age and capacity to act in a legal capacity; the use of the Service is prohibited to minors under the age of 18, and each user represents that he or she has reached the age of majority and has full capacity to enter into legally binding contracts.

_ Comply with applicable laws and contractual conditions relating to these Terms and Conditions;

_ Ensure the authenticity, accuracy and updating of the personal data provided, including the provision of a valid and stable email address, avoiding the use of temporary emails or unauthorized addresses or those belonging to third parties without their explicit consent.

There are no restrictions regarding Users as to whether they are Consumers or Professional Users.

1.1 - Access and Purchase without Account

The User has the option to complete a purchase without creating or logging in to an account. During the checkout process, the User enters his/her data, including name, address and contact information, which will be collected exclusively to finalize the order. After completing the purchase, the User will not have persistent access to his/her account, but the data will be retained for order processing and management.

Alternatively, you may temporarily access your profile by entering a 6-digit code sent via email. This access allows you to track the status of your orders, view and update your contact and address information, and manage access to your account (including the option to log out of all active sessions).

1.1.A - Personal Data and Security

The personal data provided by the User, necessary to complete the order and manage the purchase, will be processed in accordance with the privacy policy. Even without access with a temporary code, the User accepts that the data entered during checkout are collected and processed to finalize the order and keep track of purchases.

The User is responsible for ensuring the security of access to his/her email, since it is through this medium that he/she will receive the temporary code to access the Service. Users declare and accept that the use of the Service is strictly personal and must not be used on behalf of third parties without prior authorization. Furthermore, access to the site and purchases with temporary or invalid email addresses and/or telephone numbers is expressly prohibited.

1.1.B - Termination and management of use of the Service

The User may stop using the Service at any time. Any access with a temporary code does not generate a permanent account, and a formal closure procedure is not necessary.

1.1.C - Suspension of access

The Owner reserves the right to suspend or limit access to the Service at any time, without notice, if the use of the Service is deemed inappropriate or in conflict with these Terms and Conditions. Such suspension does not entitle to compensation or indemnity.

1.1.D - Use of Personal Data

The personal data collected will be processed in accordance with current legislation. Such data is used exclusively for order processing, purchase management and, if authorized by the User, for commercial communication purposes.

1.1.E - Deletion of Personal Data

At any time, the User has the right to request the Owner to delete their personal data. However, such request can only be made after the order has been completely processed. If the request for cancellation is submitted before the order has been completed, this will result in the cancellation of the order itself, with consequent cessation of the processing and delivery of the products.


1.2 - Contents on this Website

Unless otherwise specified or clearly recognizable, all content available on this Website is owned or provided by the Owner or its licensors.

The Owner takes the utmost care to ensure that the content available on this Website does not violate applicable law or third-party rights. However, it is not always possible to achieve this result.

It is the User's sole responsibility to ensure that his or her use of this Website and/or the Service does not violate any law, regulation or third-party rights.

Therefore, the Owner reserves the right to take any appropriate measure to protect its legitimate interests, and in particular to deny the User access to this Website or the Service, terminate contracts, report any reprehensible activity carried out through this Website or the Service to the competent authorities - e.g. the judicial or administrative authority - whenever the User carries out or is suspected of carrying out:

2 - TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE

Some of the Products offered on this Website as part of the service are paid.

The rates, duration and conditions applicable to the sale of such Products are described below and in the respective sections of this Website.


2.2 - Product description

Prices, descriptions and availability of Products are specified in the respective sections of this Website and are subject to change without notice.

Although the Products on this Website are presented with the greatest accuracy technically possible, the representation on this Website by any means (including, as the case may be, graphic materials, images, colours, sounds) is intended for reference only and does not imply any guarantee as to the characteristics of the purchased Product.

The characteristics of the selected Product will be specified during the purchase procedure.


2.3 - Purchase procedure

Each step, from choosing the product to placing the order, is part of the purchasing process.

The purchasing process includes the following steps:

_ Users are requested to choose the desired Product and verify their purchase choice.

_ After checking the information visible in the purchase choice, Users can place the order by forwarding it.


2.4 - Sending the order

Sending the order entails the following:

_ The sending of the order by the user determines the conclusion of the contract and creates the obligation for the User to pay the price, taxes and any additional charges and expenses, as specified on the order page.

_ In the event that the purchased Product requires an action by the User, such as the provision of personal information or data, specifications or special requests, the forwarding of the order also constitutes the obligation for the User to cooperate accordingly.

_ Once the order has been submitted, Users will be sent a confirmation of receipt of the order.

 

Please note that any order placed through this Website is to be considered, unless otherwise explicitly specified in the product description (for example, with terms such as "Available" or "In stock"), as a pre-order.

This condition implies a waiting period for the receipt of the ordered goods, which can vary from a minimum of two weeks up to a maximum of one month, depending on the specifics of the product and the volume of orders being processed.

This provision also extends to customized goods commissioned directly by the User, which will follow the same waiting process specified for pre-orders.

For each purchase, it is emphasized that the time indications provided, relating to the waiting period for receiving the goods, are to be considered merely indicative and do not constitute binding deadlines for the delivery of the item. The company undertakes to keep the user informed on the progress of the order, providing, where possible, timely updates regarding any delays or changes in the expected waiting period.

All notifications relating to the purchase procedure through the Website will be sent to the email address provided by the User for this purpose.


2.4A - …of personalized goods

In the case of purchasing customized goods, or requests for changes to the products shown on the site, Users may contact the Owner using the contact details provided in the "Contacts" section of the landing page.

Requests for “custom” products will be managed separately by the Website and in a personalized way through the contacts provided, following a specific process agreed directly with the User. This procedure will initially be started via email, WhatsApp or other channels and will continue until the order is sent, following the specific instructions provided by the Owner. It is specified that all the Terms and Conditions of Sale, including but not limited to prices, right of withdrawal, shipping methods and other provisions specified in the Terms and Conditions displayed on the Owner's website, apply in full and validate the contracts concluded through the communication channels mentioned above. Therefore, the personalized agreements agreed with the User will be subject to these Conditions of Sale, unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing between the parties.

 

All notifications relating to the purchase procedure of personalized goods will be sent to the email address or other channels provided by the User for this purpose.


2.5 - Prices

During the purchase process and before placing the order, Users are duly informed of all commissions, taxes and costs (including any shipping costs) that will be charged to them.

Prices on this Website:

_ depending on the section the User is consulting, include all applicable fees, taxes and costs or are indicated net of applicable fees, taxes and costs.

_ in the case of purchases outside the European Union


2.6 - Payment methods

Details regarding the accepted payment methods are highlighted during the purchase procedure.

Some payment methods are subject to additional conditions or involve additional costs. Detailed information is provided in the relevant section of this Website.

All payments are handled independently by third-party services. Therefore, this Website does not collect payment data – such as credit card numbers – but receives a notification once the payment has been successful.

In the event that the payment made with one of the available means fails or is rejected by the payment service provider, the Owner is not obliged to execute the order. In the event that the payment fails, the Owner reserves the right to request the User to reimburse any related expenses or damages.


2.7 - Retention of title

Until the Owner has received full payment of the purchase price, the User does not acquire ownership of the Products ordered.


2.8 - Delivery

Deliveries are made to the address indicated by the User and in the manner indicated in the order summary. Upon delivery, the User must verify the contents of the package and promptly report any anomalies to the contact details listed in this document or as described in the delivery note. The User may refuse to accept the package if it is visibly damaged or tampered with. In this case, it is recommended to document any damage with photographs, including of the closed package, to facilitate any complaints.

The shipping times, costs and options indicated in the shipping information on this Website are provided for informational purposes only and do not constitute a guarantee. Any changes, delays or updates to the shipping service cannot be considered a reason for requests for reimbursement or compensation. For shipments to places that are difficult to reach (such as mountain sites or smaller islands), times and costs may vary based on the specific destination and logistical conditions. The additional cost will be notified to the User by means of one of the contact details entered by him during the purchase phase. The User is required to pay the additional shipping costs, otherwise the order will be suspended until the payment is completed.

Any other additional costs outside the jurisdiction of the Owner, such as customs duties or import taxes for international shipments, will be notified to the User directly by the competent customs authorities, according to the methods and times established by them. Such costs are the responsibility of the User and the Owner has no responsibility or involvement in the determination or communication of these amounts.
Furthermore, if the User wishes to monitor his/her shipment, the Owner or a designated manager will provide the tracking service via the communication channel chosen by the User, in the event that the system has not already provided for this autonomously.


2.8.A - Failure to deliver

The Owner is not liable in any way for any delivery errors resulting from inaccuracies or omissions committed by the User in completing the purchase order, nor for any damage or delays that occur after delivery to the courier, unless the package has been insured. The User has the option to choose to insure the package during the checkout process. In any other scenario, such as outside of this Website, where there is no preset choice for insured shipping, the User must expressly request insurance to benefit from the guarantees in the event of damage or loss.

In case of loss of the package, if it has been insured, the Owner will refund the total amount paid, if less than one thousand euros, or ship another product at no cost. Any change in the prices of shipping services that occurs in the period between the loss or damage and the resolution of the problem will be borne by the User. The choice on how to proceed will be communicated by the User via the contact channel previously chosen.

In the event that the goods are not delivered or collected at the time or within the deadline established, a new delivery attempt will be made. If the second attempt is also unsuccessful, the goods will be returned to the Owner, who will contact the User to arrange further attempts. Unless otherwise specified, each new shipment will be at the User's expense and will involve a fixed or variable fee depending on the logistical conditions. These costs will always be communicated through the contact channel previously chosen by the User.



3 - User Rights

3.1 - Right of withdrawal

Unless an exception applies, the User may have the right to withdraw from the contract within the period specified below (usually 14 days) for any reason and without justification. The User can find further information on the right of withdrawal in this section.


3.2 - Who benefits from the right of withdrawal

Unless one of the exceptions listed below applies, Users acting as European Consumers have the legal right to withdraw from contracts concluded online (distance contracts) within the period of time specified below for any reason and without the need for justification.

Users who do not meet these requirements do not enjoy the rights described in this section.


3.3 - Exercise of the right of withdrawal

To exercise the right of withdrawal, the User must send the Owner an unequivocal communication of his intention to withdraw from the contract.

In this regard, the User may use the standard withdrawal form available at the end of this section. However, the User is free to express his intention to withdraw from the contract by means of any of the contact details provided in the “Contacts” section of the site. In order to comply with the period within which the right must be exercised, the User must send the withdrawal declaration before the withdrawal period expires.

When does the withdrawal period expire?

_ In the case of purchase of goods, the withdrawal period expires after 14 days from the day on which the User or a third party – appointed by the User and other than the courier – takes possession of the goods.

_ In the case of the purchase of multiple goods ordered together but delivered separately or in the case of the purchase of a single good composed of different lots or pieces delivered separately, the withdrawal period expires after 14 days from the day on which the User or a third party - appointed by the User and other than the courier - takes possession of the last of the goods, lots or pieces.

_ The right of withdrawal is not recognized for items that have undergone use or assembly, even if only partially. This condition implies that the product must be returned in its original state, without signs of use or assembly.

_ The right of withdrawal is excluded a priori for all orders that concern products made to measure or personalized according to the customer's specifications . This is because these items are only compliant with personal requests and cannot be resold to third parties.

_ The right of withdrawal does not apply to items purchased at a discounted price or on promotion, unless otherwise specified.


Items belonging to separate orders must be returned together, unless otherwise agreed with the Owner. Any returned item that does not comply with the established withdrawal conditions will be rejected and returned to the sender without the right to any refund.


3.3.A - Example of withdrawal form

Luke Corona
Via Goriano Sicoli 34

Ordered on: _____________________________________________ (insert date)

Received on: _____________________________________________ (insert date)

Name of consumer(s):_____________________________________________

3.4 - Effects of withdrawal

The Owner will refund all payments received including, if made, those relating to delivery costs to Users who have correctly exercised the right of withdrawal.

However, the additional cost resulting from the choice of a particular delivery method other than the cheapest standard delivery offered by the Owner will remain the responsibility of the User.

The refund will be made without undue delay and in any case within 14 days from the day on which the Owner was informed of the User's decision to withdraw from the contract. Unless otherwise agreed with the User, the refund will be made using the same means of payment used for the initial transaction. The User will not have to bear any costs as a consequence of the withdrawal.


3.5 - … on contracts for the purchase of tangible goods

Unless the Owner has offered to collect the goods, the User is required to return them to the Owner, or to another person authorized by the Owner to receive them, without undue delay and in any case within 14 days from the day on which he communicated his intention to withdraw from the contract. The deadline is respected if the delivery of the goods to the courier or other authorized person occurs before the expiry of the 14-day period described above. The Owner reserves the right to withhold the refund until the goods are received, in order to assess the presence of any loss of value and determine the amount of the refund to be made, if necessary. The User is responsible for the decrease in value of the goods resulting from a use of the goods other than that necessary to establish their nature, characteristics and functioning.

The return must include all items received at the time of delivery, including any business cards, original packaging, accessories and gifts. Failure to return one or more of these items may result in a proportional reduction in the refund, depending on the value of the missing items.

The return shipping costs are the responsibility of the User, who is required to use shipments with relatively fast and necessarily traceable delivery times.


4 - Guarantees

4.1 - Legal guarantee of conformity of the Product in accordance with European Union legislation

According to European law, the seller guarantees the conformity of the goods sold for a minimum period of 2 years from delivery. Therefore, the seller is required to guarantee that the goods purchased have the quality, functionality or characteristics promised or reasonably foreseeable for at least two years from the moment of delivery to the buyer.

Where Users act as European Consumers, the legal guarantee of conformity of the goods applies to the items available on this Website in accordance with the laws of the country in which they habitually reside.

National laws of such country may grant such Users broader rights.

Consumers who do not act as European Consumers may enjoy guarantee of conformity rights under the legislation of the country in which they habitually reside.

5.1 - Australian Users

5.1.A - Limitation of liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or modifies any guarantee, condition, warranty, right or remedy which you may have under the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) or any similar State and Territory legislation and which cannot be excluded, restricted or modified (a non-excludable right). To the fullest extent permitted by law, our liability to you, including liability for a breach of a non-excludable right and any liability which is not otherwise excluded under these Terms and Conditions, is limited, at the Owner's discretion, to the re-supply of the services or the payment of the cost of having them supplied again.


5.2 - US Users

5.2.A - Disclaimer of warranty

The Owner provides this Website on an “as is” and “as available” basis. Use of the Service is at the User’s own risk. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Owner expressly disclaims all conditions, representations and warranties of any kind – whether express, implied, statutory or otherwise, including, but not limited to, any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement of third-party rights. No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by the User from the Owner or through the Service will create any warranty not expressly stated herein.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Owner, its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, agents, co-branders, partners, suppliers and employees do not warrant that the content is accurate, reliable or correct; that the Service will be available at any particular time or location, uninterrupted or secure; that any defects or errors will be corrected; or that the Service is free of viruses or other harmful components. Any content downloaded or otherwise obtained through the use of the Service is downloaded at your own risk and you will be solely responsible for any damage to your computer system or mobile device or loss of data that results from such download or your use of the Service.

The Owner does not warrant, endorse, guarantee or assume responsibility for any product or service advertised or offered by third parties through the Service or any website or service connected by hyperlink. Furthermore, the Owner does not take part in or in any way monitor any transaction between Users and third-party suppliers of products or services.

The Service may become inaccessible or not function properly with the User's browser, device and/or operating system. The Owner cannot be held responsible for any damage, whether perceived or actual, arising from the content, operation or use of the Service.

Federal law, some states, and other jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain implied warranties. The above exclusions may not apply to Users. This Agreement gives Users specific legal rights. Users may also have other rights which vary from state to state. The limitations and exclusions in this Agreement apply to the fullest extent permitted by law.


5.2.B - Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, under no circumstances shall the Owner, its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, co-branders, partners, suppliers and employees be liable for any

_ any indirect, punitive, special, consequential or exemplary damages, including, but not limited to, damages resulting from loss of profits, goodwill, use, data or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating to the use of, or inability to use, the Service; and

_ any damage, loss or injury resulting from hacking, tampering or other unauthorized access to or use of the Service or your account or the information contained therein;

_ any unauthorized access to the Data Controller's security servers and/or to any personal information stored therein

_ any errors or omissions in any content or for any loss or damage incurred as a result of the use of any content posted, emailed, transmitted or otherwise made available via the Service; and/or

_ the defamatory, offensive or illegal conduct of any User or third party. In no event shall the Owner, its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, co-branders, partners, suppliers and employees be liable for any claims, proceedings, liabilities, obligations, damages, losses or costs in an amount exceeding the amount paid by the User to the Owner in the preceding 12 months, or the term of this Agreement between the Owner and the User, whichever is shorter.


This limitation of liability section applies to the fullest extent permitted by law in the applicable jurisdiction, whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other basis, even if the Owner has been advised of the possibility of such damage. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. These Terms give you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. The disclaimers, exclusions, or limitations of liability in these Terms shall not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law.


5.2.C - Indemnity

You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Owner and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, co-branders, partners, suppliers and employees from and against any and all claims or demands, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, charges or debts and expenses, including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses arising from

_ your use of or access to the Service, including any data or content transmitted or received by you;

_ your violation of these Terms, including, but not limited to, any breach by you of any representation or warranty set forth in these Terms;

_ your violation of any third party right, including, but not limited to, any right of privacy or intellectual property;
