After sending the Order Proposal, the Customer will receive confirmation of receipt of the same via email (hereinafter “Confirmation of receipt of Order Proposal”). This email will not imply acceptance of the Order Proposal, which will be considered accepted only when the Customer receives a subsequent email confirming that the Order Proposal has been accepted and that the Products are being shipped (hereinafter “Order and Shipping Confirmation”). Consequently, no contract will exist between the Customer and the Seller until the Order Proposal is explicitly accepted by the Seller by sending the Order and Shipping Confirmation. The online purchase contract (hereinafter the “Contract”) will therefore be considered concluded only when the Customer receives the Order and Shipping Confirmation (“Contract Conclusion Date”): from this moment onwards the Order Proposal will be simply defined as the “Order”.

Consequently, the Seller will not be responsible for any inadequacy of the graphic representations of Products shown on the Site if due to the aforementioned technical reasons, since such representations have a merely illustrative function.
3.1 The prices of the Products (hereinafter “Price/s”) and shipping costs (hereinafter “Shipping Costs”) are those indicated on the Site and at the time of transmission of the Order Proposal. The Prices and Shipping Costs are to be considered inclusive of taxes, duties and any costs related to customs duties (unless otherwise specified in the Order Proposal.

If he/she does not wish to proceed with the purchase, the Order Proposal will be cancelled.

In the absence of such conditions, it will not be possible to proceed with the Order Proposal. At the time of sending the Order Proposal, only the amount will be committed: the actual debit will only take place at the time of the Order Confirmation and Shipping. In the event that it is not possible to debit the amount, the Order Proposal will be automatically cancelled. It is specified that the Seller is not able to know the full information relating to the Customer's credit card/payment account, which is managed directly by the third party who administers the payment. For this reason, the Seller will not be aware of such data, nor will it retain them and will have access only to partial information that the Customer decides to save (for example, type of card, expiration date of the card, holder), insufficient to identify the card but useful to the Customer in the event of subsequent purchases.
