In addition, Company may add, modify, or delete any aspect, component, or feature of the Site, but Company is not under any obligation to provide any upgrade, enhancement, or modification. Your continued use of the Site following any announced change will be deemed as conclusive acceptance of any change to the TOU.

SECTION 2: TERMS OF SALE
2.1 ORDERING GOODS
You must be at least 18 years old to place an order for Goods via the Site (an "Order").
In order to submit an order for Goods via the Site (“Order”) you must first register an Account and then follow the procedure set out on the Site to submit your Order. You should check all of the information that you enter and correct any errors before submitting your Order, as once your Order is submitted, the Company will begin processing it immediately.
When you place an Order, We will send you an email acknowledging receipt of your Order (“Order Acknowledgement”). On dispatch of your Order, We will send you an email confirming the conclusion of the Contract according to the information you included in your Order and providing all the required information (the "Confirmation Email"). Unless you have cancelled your Order prior to this point or We have notified you that we cannot accept your Order, these Terms of Sale, the General Terms and the Order will become legally binding on You and Us when we send you the Confirmation Email. Each Order shall incorporate the Terms of Sale and General Terms and shall be a new and separate Contract between you and us.
2.2. GOODS, PRICING AND AVAILABILITY
All pricing information on this Site is correct at the time of going online. We reserve the right to change prices and alter or remove any special offers from time to time and as necessary, save that the price payable by you shall be the price quoted on the Site at the time of placing your Order. All pricing information is reviewed and updated regularly.
It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Goods may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before processing an Order so that, where a Good's correct price at the time of your Order is less than our stated price at that time, we will charge the lower amount.
If we accept or if we process your Order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the Contract and refund you any sums you have paid.
The images of the Goods on the Site are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device's display of the colours accurately reflects the colour of the Goods. Your Goods may vary slightly from those images.
The packaging of the Goods may vary from that shown in images on the Site.
Please ensure that you read the description of the Goods on our Site carefully. There may be limitations on how you can use the Goods. You are responsible for reading the description of the Goods on the Site and complying with any limitations and warnings set out on the product page for any Goods you purchase. You acknowledge that:
- if you fail to adhere to any limitations set out on a product page it may cause the Goods to fail; and
- we will not be responsible or liable to you for your failure to comply with any limitations on the use of Goods which we have notified to you on our Site.
2.3 DELIVERY
Please note that there may be restrictions on delivering Goods to certain areas.
The costs of delivery will be as displayed to you on the Site.
We will provide you with a delivery estimate on the Site and during the Order process. In any case, deliveries will be made at the latest within 30 (thirty) days from the date of the Confirmation Email. If our supply of the Goods is delayed by an event outside our control, then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay.
Please note that a signature indicating safe receipt of the Goods may be required on delivery or collection. Delivery shall be deemed to have occurred when the Goods: (i) are delivered to the address specified in your Order; or (ii) if you have chosen to collect the Goods, collected by you.
Risk in the Goods will pass to you at the moment when you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier proposed by us acquires on your behalf, physical possession of the Goods. You shall own the Goods once we have received payment in full.
If you do not collect the Goods from us as arranged or if, after a failed delivery to you, you do not re-arrange delivery or collect them from a delivery depot we will contact you for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange delivery or collection we may end the Contract and Article 3.2 will apply.
You have legal rights if we deliver the Goods late. If we miss the delivery deadline for any Goods, then you may treat the Contract as at an end straight away if any of the following apply:
- we have refused to deliver the Goods;
- delivery within the delivery deadline was essential (taking into account all the relevant circumstances); or
- you told us before we accepted your Order that delivery within the delivery deadline was essential.
If you do not wish to treat the Contract as at an end straight away, or do not have the right to do so under (i) to (iii) you can give us a new deadline for delivery, which must be reasonable, and you can treat the Contract as at an end if we do not meet the new deadline.
If you do choose to treat the Contract as at an end for late delivery under this Article, you can cancel your Order for any of the Goods or reject Goods that have been delivered. If you wish, you can reject or cancel the Order for some of those Goods (not all of them), unless splitting them up would significantly reduce their value. After that we will refund any sums you have paid to us for the cancelled Goods and their delivery without undue delay. If the Goods have been delivered to you, you must post them back to us or (if they are not suitable for posting) allow us to collect them from you. We will pay the costs of postage or collection. Please contact us using the details set out in Article 3.7 for a return label or to arrange collection.
2.4 PAYMENT
The applicable prices, charges, payment periods, and permitted payment methods will be specified in the Site at the time of order. Except as otherwise expressly indicated on the Site, all listed prices are in euros, inclusive of VAT and are valid only for deliveries made in Italy.
You will be charged for your Order when we send you the Order Confirmation. Company may request further information from You to confirm or validate the Order, and/or method of payment, including without limitation the production of additional identification or government issued documentation. Company reserves the right to terminate or suspend access to the Site or any related subscription, Good, or service if You fail to pay any amounts when due. Unless otherwise specified herein, all payment obligations with respect to amounts due to Company in connection with the Site shall survive the expiration or termination of the Terms and Conditions for any reason.
When making an Order, You agree to pay using one of the payment methods indicated in the Order process or any other payment method agreed between you and us (the "Payment Methods") and grant authorization to Company and/or the applicable third party payment-processor to charge Your selected Payment Methods. Company and/or the applicable third-party payment processor shall charge, and You shall be responsible for, all taxes, tariffs, levies, or duties applicable to Your payment, excluding taxes applied against Company’s net income. Unless otherwise expressly indicated at the time of purchase, all transactions listed through the Site are denominated in euros. You are responsible for: (a) the accuracy of all payment method information that You provide to us; and (b) maintaining the confidentiality and security of Your account information, including without limitation with respect to payment methods. You should not disclose Your payment information to anyone. If Your account information or login credentials are lost or stolen, anyone who obtains possession of either could utilize the payment methods associated with Your account. You are responsible for all transactions on Your account, including unauthorized transactions that do not derive from acts or omissions by the Company and/or events under the Company’s control. You confirm that the card or bank account which is being used is yours, or that you have the authorisation of the account holder to use it. If you use a Payment Method which you are not authorised to use, you will be liable to us for any losses that we suffer as a result of your use of that Payment Method. If your payment is not authorised, your Order will not be fulfilled. Company reserves the right to, after warning you, if possible, suspend, terminate, cancel, delay, and/or reduce the quantity of any Order in the event that You violate any of the terms of these Terms and Conditions. You will be informed about this decision and will have the opportunity to reply.
All payment information provided by you when placing an Order is handled by a third party online payment processing provider that is compliant with all relevant security standards, including the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).
2.5 CANCELLATION AND REFUNDS
2.5.1. Cancellation/changes to an Order
It is important to us that you are happy with your Order. However, you can change your mind and cancel the Contract between you and us within 14 days of delivery of your Goods without giving a reason. This 14-day right to cancel includes your 14 days statutory right to cancel. Please note that the right to change your mind does not apply to any bespoke Goods you purchase from us (i.e. Goods that we create to your specification or are clearly personalised).
The cancellation period will expire 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party (other than our authorised courier that delivers the Goods) indicated by you in the delivery details of your Order, acquires physical possession of the Goods. You may cancel the Contract in respect of all Goods delivered or in respect of certain of the Goods only. For further specification, you should refer to the withdrawal period calculation in accordance with the provisions of article 52 et seq. of the Italian Consumer Code. Where you order multiple Goods in one Order or the Goods are delivered in separate parts, lots or pieces, the cancellation period will expire 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party (other than our authorised courier that delivers the Goods) indicated by you in the delivery details of your Order, acquires physical possession of the last Goods, part, lot or piece that makes up your Order.
To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us of your decision to cancel the Contract with us by making a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post or email). The easiest way to do this is to contact us using the details in Article 3.7. You may use the following model cancellation form but you are not required to do so:
Model Cancelation Form
To: [•] E-mail address: [•] I/We(*) hereby give notice that I/We(*) cancel from my/our (*) contract of sale of the following goods(*)/for the provision of the following service*, Ordered on(*) / received on(*)
Name of consumer(s),
Address of consumer(s),
Signature of consumer (only if this form is notified on paper)
Date
(*) Please delete if not applicable
To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning the exercise of your right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired. We will send you an acknowledgement of receipt of your notice to cancel by email.
If you cancel the Contract with us, we will reimburse you all payments received from you, including the cost 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 and for any deductions as permitted below).
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel this Contract, provided that we may withhold reimbursement until we have received the Goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the Goods, whichever is the earliest.
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. You are only liable for any diminished value of the Goods resulting from the unfair and/or unreasonable wear and tear of the Goods other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Goods. We may make a deduction from any reimbursement (you are entitled to from us) for such loss in value of any Goods we supply.
2.5.2. How to return Goods
If you wish to exercise your rights to a refund under this Article 2.5, you must return those Goods to the following address:
STACI MOISSY BAT 1 PARC DE CHANTELOUP -2000 –RD 57
We will pay the costs of return if the Goods are faulty or misdescribed in accordance with Article 2.5.4. In all other circumstances, you must pay the costs of return.
You are responsible for taking reasonable care of the Goods until they are returned to us. We recommend that you keep proof of postage. We will be unable to provide you with a full refund if the Goods are not returned to us or if they are damaged when they arrive.
2.5.3. Refund payments
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction; you will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement.
2.5.4. Other refunds
If, due to unforeseen circumstances, we are unable to fulfil your Order or any of the Goods in a particular Order, we will refund the value of the Goods that we were unable to fulfil and, if the full Order is cancelled, any delivery charges. You may obtain a refund by contacting us (see Article 3.7 below for the contact details).
2.5.5. Statutory warranty
Italian law grants you as a consumer the following statutory rights and guarantees. The Company will therefore offer you the protection granted by law under the legal warranty of conformity provided by articles 129 et seq. of the Italian Consumer Code.
Guarantee of conformity
The Consumer Code provides the following rights to Consumers:
The seller is liable for delivering an item that complies with the contract and is accountable for any non-conformity that exists at the time of delivery. The seller is also accountable for any non-conformity that results from the packaging, the assembly instructions or the installation when this is set out as its responsibility in the contract or was carried out under its responsibility.
In order to comply with the contract, the item must, in particular:
- Be suitable for the use generally expected in respect of such item;:
- Correspond to the description given by the seller and, where applicable, possess the qualities that the latter presented to the purchaser in the form of a sample or a model;
- Present the qualities that a purchaser can legitimately expect in view of the public declarations made by the seller, the producer or its representative, in particular in the advertisement or on the labelling;
- Or present the characteristics defined as part of a common agreement by the parties or be suitable for any special use sought by the purchaser, brought to the attention of the seller and which the latter accepted.
The buyer is entitled to demand that the product conforms to the contract. He/she may nevertheless not contest its conformity by invoking a defect of which he/she has been specifically informed and has expressly and separately accepted when he/she entered into the contract .
The action resulting from the non-conformity is time-barred 26 months after the delivery of the item, unless the defects have been wilfully hidden by the seller.
In the case of any defect, the Consumer is entitled to request that the Company repairs or replaces the goods. The Company may nevertheless elect not to proceed in accordance with Consumer choice if the chosen remedy is impossible or that choice gives rise to a manifestly disproportionate cost compared with the other option, taking into account, in particular, the value that the Goods would have if there were no lack of conformity, the seriousness of the defect and whether the alternative remedy could be provided without significant inconvenience to the consumer.
Under the conditions provided under article 135-bis par. 4 and 5, the consumer can choose between reduction of the price by a suitable amount, or termination of the contract.
For the 12-month period following the delivery of Goods, the consumer will not be required to prove the existence of the default at the time of delivery.
2.6 ASSIGNMENT
We may at any time assign, transfer, charge, subcontract or deal in any other manner with all or any of its rights or obligations under the Contract. In the event that we transfer our rights and obligations pursuant to this Article 2.6 and your rights and obligations materially change under the Contract, we will notify you and you will have the right to cancel this Contract, provided we have not already delivered the Goods to you. In any case, no assignment or transfer of our rights and obligations under the Contract will result in a reduction of your rights.
You may not assign, transfer, charge, subcontract or deal in any other manner with all or any of its rights or obligations under the Contract without our prior written consent.
2.7 FORCE MAJEURE
Company shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations under the Contract to the extent that such failure or delay is caused by a Force Majeure Event. A “Force Majeure Event” shall mean an event preventing the Company to perform its contractual obligations, that is an event beyond the Company’s control, which could not be reasonably foreseen at the time of the contract conclusion and whose effects cannot be avoided by implementation of appropriate measures.
If a Force Majeure Event takes place that affects the performance of Company’s obligations under the Contract:
- Company shall contact you as soon as reasonably possible to notify you; and
- Company’s obligations under the Contract will be suspended and the time for performance of Company’s obligations will be extended for the duration of the Force Majeure Event. Where the Force Majeure Event affects our delivery of Goods to you, we will arrange a new delivery date with you after the Force Majeure Event is over.
Any such delay or failure on our part which is due to a Force Majeure Event shall not affect your obligation to pay for Goods already delivered.
SECTION 3: GENERAL TERMS
