2. FINALIZING THE CONTRACT

2.1. The valid performance of the purchase order on the Website requires the Customer to have an email address and the requirements established by law to be able to enter into valid purchase contracts.

2.2. All Contracts are only finalized through the Customer’s access to the Website. The Customer follows the procedures indicated on the Website and is guided through the various steps to finalize the purchase contract for the chosen product.

2.3. The Website page for sending purchase orders contains a link to the General Sales Conditions and the information on the main characteristics of each product ordered and its price (including taxes in countries belonging to the European Union), the type of payment used to purchase, the shipping conditions for the products, the amount required for delivery and transport as well as the terms and conditions for returning Products purchased through the Website. The Product illustrations and price indications are only an invitation to send a purchase order.

2.4. The Seller has the right to not accept the purchase order: (a) from individuals who do not fit in the Consumer category as indicated in point 1.5 of these General Conditions; (b) that are not completely, correctly and truthfully compiled; (c) from individuals who do not provide a guarantee of solvency; (d) for Products to be delivered to Countries where there is no set shipping service. The Seller reserves the right to request the Customer to send documentation proving the truthfulness of the information given by the Customer and to make acceptance of the purchase order subject to the positive examination of the documentation. The Products are available and can be purchased as long as they are still visible on the Website and until sold out; the Seller reserves the right to not accept purchase orders whenever the Products may be unavailable for any reason and even only temporarily.

Partial execution of the orders by the Seller cannot therefore be refused by the Customer and, except for the right of withdrawal, shall not give the Customer the right to revoke the order.
