must choose the desired Product and verify their purchase selection.
After
having reviewed the information displayed in the purchase selection, Users
may place the order by submitting it.
Order submission When the User submits an order, the following applies:
The
submission of an order determines contract conclusion and therefore
creates for the User the obligation to pay the price, taxes and possible
further fees and expenses, as specified on the order page.
In
case the purchased Product requires an action from the User, such as the
provision of personal information or data, specifications or special
wishes, the order submission creates an obligation for the User to
cooperate accordingly.
Upon
submission of the order, Users will receive a receipt confirming that the
order has been received.
All notifications related to the described purchasing
process shall be sent to the email address provided by the User for such
purposes. Prices Users are informed during the purchasing process and before
order submission, about any fees, taxes and costs (including, if any, delivery
costs) that they will be charged.

exclusive or inclusive of any applicable fees, taxes and costs, depending
on the section the User is browsing.

available during the purchasing process.
Some payment methods may only be available subject to
additional conditions or fees. In such cases related information can be found
in the dedicated section of this Application.
All payments are independently processed through third-party
services. Therefore, this Application does not collect any payment information
– such as credit card details – but only receives a notification once the
payment has been successfully completed.
If a payment through the available methods fails or is
refused by the payment service provider, the Owner shall be under no obligation
to fulfill the purchase order. If a payment fails or is refused, the Owner
reserves the right to claim any related expenses or damages from the User. Authorization for future PayPal payment If Users authorize the PayPal feature which allows future
purchases, this Application will store an identification code linked to the
Users’ PayPal account. This will authorize this Application to automatically
process payments for future purchases or recurring installments of past
purchases.
This authorization can be revoked at any time, either by
contacting the Owner or by changing the user settings offered by PayPal. Retention of Product ownership Until payment of the total purchase price is received by the
Owner, any Products ordered shall not become the User’s property. Retention of usage rights Users do not acquire any rights to use the purchased Product
until the total purchase price is received by the Owner. Delivery Deliveries are made to the address indicated by the User and
in the manner specified in the order summary.
Upon delivery, Users must verify the content of the delivery
and report anomalies without undue delay, using the contact details provided in
this document or as described in the delivery note. Users may refuse to accept
the parcel if visibly damaged.
Goods are delivered to the countries or territories
specified in the relevant section of this Application.
Delivery times are specified on this Application or during
the purchasing process. Failed delivery The Owner cannot be held responsible for delivery errors due
to inaccuracies or incompleteness in the execution of the purchase order by the
User, nor for any damages or delays after handover to the carrier if the latter
is arranged by the User.
If the goods are not received or collected at the time or
within the deadline specified, the goods will be returned to the Owner, who
will contact the User to schedule a second delivery attempt or to agree on the
future course of action.

within the timeframe specified on this Application or as communicated before
the order submission. User rightsRight of withdrawal Unless exceptions apply, the User may be eligible to
withdraw from the contract within the period specified below (generally 14
days), for any reason and without justification. Users can learn more about the
withdrawal conditions within this section. The right of withdrawal does not apply on this
Application Users acknowledge and accept that the right of withdrawal
does not apply to contracts concluded over this Application due to the nature

hardship on any of the parties. Governing law These Terms are governed by the law of the place where the
