10. CHECKS AT PRODUCT DELIVERY (IF APPLICABLE)

At the time of delivery of the Products by the courier appointed by SER-VIS, the Customer is required to check that the number of packages delivered corresponds to what is indicated in the transport document on the packaging and that the packaging itself is intact, undamaged, or otherwise unaltered, including the closing materials, carefully checking for any signs indicating the breakage of the goods sent.

Any damage to the packaging and/or the Products and/or the non-correspondence of the number of packages and/or the indications must be immediately contested by the Customer, who must declare in writing to the person in charge of delivering the Products that they are accepted "subject to inspection" or indicating that they are "damaged": otherwise, no claim will be accepted. The Customer also undertakes to promptly report, and in any case not later than 24 hours from the date of delivery, to SER-VIS (by email to the address specified in Article 1 of these General Conditions) any and all problems regarding the integrity, correspondence, and/or completeness of the Products received, failing which the right to make a claim shall be forfeited.

 

11. FORCE MAJEURE AND THIRD-PARTY EVENTS

SER-VIS shall not be liable for the non-performance or delayed performance of the Contract if this is due to failures attributable to force majeure, fortuitous events, or otherwise not attributable to SER-VIS. Except for the cases provided for in Article 1229 of the Italian Civil Code, no compensation shall be due to the Buyer, who shall only be entitled to the full refund of the price and any additional charges paid.

SER-VIS - having demonstrated the adoption of all possible precautions based on ordinary diligence, experience, and the best knowledge available at the time regarding the security of online transactions - assumes no responsibility for any fraudulent, unlawful, or irregular use of credit cards, attributable to fraudulent or negligent conduct by the Buyer regarding the obligations of custody and prompt notification to the issuer of said means of payment.

12. STORAGE AND PRESERVATION OF PRODUCTS

The products sold by SER-VIS must be stored and preserved by the Customer using the necessary precautions and measures appropriate to the nature of the Products themselves (kept in a cool and dry place, away from direct heat sources, properly sealed after use). Negligence and/or incompetence in the storage of each product can damage it and compromise its qualities. SER-VIS is not responsible for any damage to the Products sold resulting from incorrect or improper storage of the same, with express waiver of any warranty regarding them.

 

13. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL/RETURN

The Buyer has the right to withdraw from the Contract, without penalty and without specifying the reason, within 14 days (fourteen calendar days) from the day on which the Buyer (or a third party designated by them) acquires physical possession of the goods.

If the Buyer intends to exercise the right of withdrawal, they must notify SER-VIS by means of a specific communication, sent by Registered Mail with return receipt requested, to the postal address indicated in Article 1 of these general conditions or sent via Certified Email (PEC) to the following address ser-vis@pec.it or by regular email to the address consumers@drgiorgini.com.

The return of the goods by the Buyer must take place, without delay and in any case within 14 days (fourteen days) from the date of sending the withdrawal communication to SER-VIS. The only expenses due by the Buyer to exercise the right of withdrawal will be those related to the return of the goods to SER-VIS, which prescribes the adoption of all possible precautions in proceeding with the shipment, using the original packaging of the goods, or equivalent ones, which preserve their integrity and adequately protect them during transport. The return of the goods following the exercise of the right of withdrawal must be made to the postal address indicated in Article 1 of these general conditions.

SER-VIS will refund the price of the goods for which the right of withdrawal has been exercised within 14 days (fourteen days) from the receipt of the withdrawal communication from the Buyer. In principle, SER-VIS will use the same means of payment chosen by the Buyer for the initial transaction, unless the Buyer has expressly requested otherwise, in which case any additional costs deriving from the different means of payment chosen will be borne solely by the Buyer. SER-VIS may withhold the refund until receipt of the goods or until the Buyer has provided proof of return.

If the returned goods are damaged and/or opened and/or show signs of wear related to handling that has altered the characteristics of the product, SER-VIS will deduct from the refund an amount corresponding to the decrease in the value thereof. Therefore, if the returned goods are damaged (e.g., in the presence of breakages, crushing, etc.) or incomplete with any element or accessory (including labels, packaging, etc.), the Buyer will be responsible for the decrease in the value of the goods, with the right to a refund for an amount equal to the residual value of the goods themselves. Upon receipt by the Supplier of the communication with which the Buyer expresses their intention to exercise the right of withdrawal, all obligations related to the Contract will cease, without prejudice to what is provided for in this Article.

14. EXCLUSION CASES OF THE RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

The Consumer Customer cannot exercise the right of withdrawal provided for in Article 13 ("Right of withdrawal") in the following cases: (a) where the goods are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly; (b) where sealed goods are opened after delivery and are not suitable for return due to hygiene or health protection reasons; (c) where the goods, after delivery, are, by their nature, inseparably mixed with other goods.

15. MODIFICATIONS

SER-VIS may modify, at any time and without prior notice, the content of these General Terms and Conditions.

Any changes made will take effect from the date of publication on the Website, as declared in the heading of the same General Terms and Conditions.

In the event of changes, unless otherwise expressly agreed between SER-VIS and the Customer, the General Terms and Conditions in force at the time of the conclusion of the contract shall remain applicable to contracts already concluded.

16. PRIVACY/ PERSONAL DATA PROCESSING

The Supplier protects the personal data of the Buyer, ensuring full compliance of their processing with the relevant regulations, including Regulation 679/2016, as well as the pertinent national rules (Privacy Code, as last amended by Legislative Decree 101/2018). Referring to the details provided in the Privacy Policy on the website and the connected Extended Cookie Policy, it is anticipated that the personal data collected directly and/or indirectly through the Website will be collected and processed electronically/informatively, and, if necessary, on paper, for the following main purposes: i) to record the order; ii) to proceed with the execution of the Contract and related communications; iii) to comply with legal obligations; iv) to manage commercial relationships to better fulfill the requested services. The correct and timely communication of the Buyer's personal data is a necessary condition for the punctual execution of the Contract by SER-VIS, which, in the absence thereof, cannot proceed with the Buyer's order.

17. COMPLAINTS AND CUSTOMER SUPPORT

For any inquiries, please refer to the contact details provided in Article 1 of these commercial terms. Official communications addressed to the Supplier, as well as any complaints from the Buyer, will be considered valid only if sent to one of the aforementioned addresses. During registration on the Website, the Buyer shall provide their residence or domicile, along with corresponding telephone contacts and the email address to which SER-VIS communications will be sent.

 

18. APPLICABLE LAW, ADR, AND JURISDICTION

The sales contract between the Buyer and SER-VIS, including the Purchase Order and the Sales Conditions, shall be subject to and governed exclusively by Italian law.

Should it not be possible to resolve a dispute between the Buyer and SER-VIS following a complaint lodged directly by the Buyer, the Buyer may resort to out-of-court dispute resolution methods (so-called "Alternative Dispute Resolution" or "ADR") regulated by Articles 141 to 141-decies of the Consumer Code (Legislative Decree no. 130/2015, which implemented Directive ADR 2013/11/EU).

SER-VIS also informs the Buyer that, pursuant to Regulation (EU) No. 524/2013, a European ODR platform (so-called ODR platform) has been established to facilitate the out-of-court resolution of disputes arising between consumers and professionals concerning contractual obligations arising from online sales or service contracts between a consumer residing in the Union and a professional established in the Union. This ODR platform, which the Buyer can use to resolve online disputes that may arise with SER-VIS, is accessible at the internet address https://webgate.ec.europa.eu/odr.

Regardless of the outcome of the out-of-court dispute resolution procedure that may be initiated, the Buyer retains the right to recourse to the Judicial Authority.

In the event of a dispute, the competent judge shall be determined by REG (EU) 1215/2012 if the Buyer is domiciled in a Member State of the European Union other than Italy.
