• APPLICABLE LAW AND PLACE OF JURISDICTION

The Terms and Conditions are subject to Italian law.

Any dispute relating to the application, execution and interpretation of these Terms and Conditions shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the court of the place where the Principal has its registered office.

For Consumer/Users, (meaning any natural person over the age of 18 who concludes a contract for purposes outside his or her trade, business, craft or profession, as defined by art. 3 of Italian Legislative Decree no. 26 of 6 September 2005), any dispute relating to the application, execution and interpretation of these Terms and Conditions shall be referred to the court of the place where the Consumer/User resides or has elected domicile, if located in the territory of the Italian State, without prejudice to the right of the Consumer/User to refer to a court other than the “consumer court” pursuant to art. 66 bis of the Consumer Code, with territorial jurisdiction according to one of the criteria set out in articles 18, 19 and 20 of the Italian Code of Civil Procedure.

This does not affect the right of Consumers/Users whose habitual residence is not in Italy to invoke any more favourable and mandatory provisions provided for by the law of the country in which they have their habitual residence, in particular in relation to the deadline for exercising the right of withdrawal, the deadline for returning the Products, in the event of exercising this right, the methods and formalities for communicating this right and the legal guarantee of conformity.

• ONLINE DISPUTE RESOLUTION FOR CONSUMERS/USERS

If you are a Consumer/User and you have submitted a complaint relating to a contract concluded through this Site, but it has not been possible to resolve the dispute forming the subject matter of the complaint, you will be provided with information about the Alternative Dispute Resolution body or bodies for the out-of-court settlement of disputes (so-called ADR bodies, as referred to in Articles 141-bis et seq. of the Consumer Code), specifying whether or not we use these bodies to resolve the dispute.

Please be informed that for the resolution of disputes arising from the exact application of the contracts governed by the provisions of Sections I to IV of Chapter I of the Consumer Code, it is possible to resort to the mediation procedures provided for by Italian Legislative Decree No. 28 of 4 March 2010.

This does not affect the option of using the voluntary and joint negotiation procedures provided for in Article 2(2) of the same Legislative Decree No. 28 of 4 March 2010.

Furthermore, we remind you that a European platform for the online resolution of consumer disputes (the ODR platform) has been established. The ODR platform can be consulted at the following address: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/ ; through the ODR platform, you will be able to consult the list of ADR bodies, find the link to the site of each of these bodies and initiate an online dispute resolution procedure for the dispute in which you are involved.

In any event, whatever the outcome of the out-of-court settlement of the dispute, your rights to bring a matter before the ordinary courts, and, if the conditions are met, to initiate an out-of-court settlement of disputes relating to consumer relations through recourse to the procedures set out in Part V, Title II-bis of the Consumer Code, shall remain unaffected.

• SEVERABILITY CLAUSE

In the event that any provision of these Terms of Use is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall nevertheless be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law while the unenforceable part shall be deemed severable from these Terms of Use. This shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

• ENTIRE AGREEMENT

Any failure on our part to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any ambiguity in the interpretation of these Terms shall not be construed against the party that drafted them.
