The images and descriptions on the Website reproduce the features of the Products as faithfully as possible. However, the colours of the Products may differ from the actual ones due to the settings of the computer systems or the computers used to view them. Moreover, the images of the Product in the Product Sheet may differ in size or in relation to accessory products.

For the purposes of the sale of goods agreement, the description of the Product in the order form transmitted by the user shall be taken as the point of reference.

Article 7. Prices

7.1 All prices are VAT included.

9.1 The payment on the Website can be made by:

Payment cards
PayPal.

9.2 The Seller accepts the following credit cards:

VISA
MasterCard (Cirrus Maestro)
PostePay
V-Pay
American Express

The credit cards accepted by the Seller are specified in the footer.

The user hereby authorises the storage of the inserted payment option details and their re-use for the payment of subsequent purchases on the Website, thus avoiding the need to insert such data at each purchase. The user may at any time revoke the authorisation to re-use

the payment card details for subsequent purchases by following the instructions on the Website.

The charge will be made only after (i) the details of your payment card used for payment have been verified and (ii) the company issuing the payment card you used has released the debit authorisation.

The confidential data of the payment card (card number, holder, expiration date, security code) are encrypted and transmitted directly to the payment manager without passing through the servers used by the Seller.

The charge will be made when the order is sent.

9.3 As for PayPal payments, the user will be redirected to the website www.paypal.com, where they shall make the payment on the basis of the prescribed procedure regulated by PayPal and the terms and conditions of the agreement agreed between the user and PayPal . The data inserted on the PayPal website will be processed directly by PayPal and will not be sent to or shared with the Seller. The Seller is thus unable to know, or memorise in any way, the credit card details linked to the user's PayPal account, or the details of any other form of payment linked to said account. If payment is made through PayPal, the Total Sum Due will be charged by PayPal to the user's account at the same time as the conclusion of the online agreement. If the agreement is terminated, or in any other case of refund, for any reason, the amount of the refund due to the user shall be credited to the user's PayPal account. The term for crediting the sum on the payment tool linked to this account depends exclusively on PayPal and the bank system. Once the credit order has been arranged in favor of the said account, the Seller shall not be deemed liable for any delays or omissions in the crediting of the refund to the User. Any type of refund to be made pursuant to these General Terms and Conditions of Sale will be made to the user's PayPal account.

In the event that the package shows obvious signs of tampering or alteration, it is advisable to promptly notify the Seller. In any case, the right of withdrawal (if any for the Product) and legal guarantee of conformity apply.

Article 11. Right of Withdrawal

11.1 The user - who acts as a consumer - has the right to withdraw from the sale of goods agreement for the Product (Sample Set excepted) without stating the reason and without incurring in additional costs and expenses other than those indicated in this article, within fourteen calendar day (Right of withdrawal). The withdrawal period (Withdrawal Period) expires after 14 days:

to. in case of a single or multiple Product order, from the day the user or a third party other than the carrier and designated by the user comes into material possession of the Products;

b. in case of a Multiple Order with separate deliveries, from the day the user or a third party other than the carrier and designated by the user comes into material possession of the Product delivered last.

11.2 To exercise the Right of withdrawal, the user must inform the Seller of their decision to withdraw, prior to the expiry of the Withdrawal Period.

11.3 You have exercised your Right of withdrawal within the Withdrawal Period if the relevant communication is sent by you before the expiry of the Withdrawal Period. This communication must be sent to the following email address:

customercare@inastra.com

The Consumer shall obtain lasting means of storage for the communication related to the exercise of the Right of withdrawal, since the burden of proof concerning the exercise of this right before the expiry of the Withdrawal Period falls on the user.

11.4 In case of exercise of the right of withdrawal, you must contact the Seller, who will provide specific instructions as to return the Product. You must then deliver the Product and the completed withdrawal form to the address indicated to you by the Seller following your email.

11.5 The cost for returning the Product is at the user's expense and the return occurs under their responsibility. The Seller advises that insurance should be taken, for if the Product is lost or damaged, the Seller will not be held accountable and the reimbursement request will therefore be cancelled.

11.6 If the user withdraws from the agreement, the Seller shall refund the Total Sum Due paid by the user for the Products, except delivery expenses, without undue delay and no later than 14 calendar days from the date on which the Seller has received the returned Products.

The Products will have to be returned in perfect condition for resale: not opened; not used; with the film still intact, sealed and not tampered; and without any sign of wear, dirt or handling.

11.8 In the event that the withdrawal has not been exercised in compliance with the provisions of the applicable legislation, it will not result in termination of the contract and, by consequence, won’t create any right of reimbursement. The Seller will communicate to the user that it will reject the withdrawal request from the reception of the Product.

11.9 In the case of partial withdrawal from Multiple Orders, the amount to be reimbursed in favor of the user will consist solely of the Product subject to withdrawal, and it will be applied the policy shown in the aforementioned paragraphs of this article.

Article 12. Legal Guarantee of Conformity

All the Products sold on the Website are covered by the legal guarantee of conformity provided by articles 128-135 by Legislative Decree N. 128- 135 of Consumer Code (Legal Guarantee). To whom it applies

To whom it applies

The Legal Warranty is reserved for consumers. It therefore applies solely to users who have made the purchase on the Website for purposes other than entrepreneurial, commercial, craft or professional activities.

When it applies

The Seller is liable vis-à-vis the consumer for any non-conformity existing at the time of delivery of the product and becoming visible within two years of said delivery. The Seller must be informed of the non- conformity, under penalty of forfeiture of the guarantee, within two months from the date on which it was discovered. Unless proven otherwise, the non-conformity materialising within six months from the delivery date of the product are assumed as existing since the latter, unless the assumption is incompatible with the nature of the product or with the nature of the non-conformity. Starting from the seventh month following the delivery of the product, the burden of proof to prove that the non-conformity already existed at the time of delivery of the product shall lie with the consumer.

In order to take advantage of the Legal Guarantee, you must thus provide proof of the date of the purchase and delivery of the good. It is therefore advisable, for the purpose of proving the purchase, that you keep the invoice sent by the Seller, as well as the transport document or any other document certifying the date of the purchase (such as the credit card statement or the bank statement ) and the delivery date. In case of a non-conformity reported within the prescribed period, the user is entitled to the following: (i) firstly, the repair or replacement of the good free of charge, according to preference, unless the requested solution is objectively impossible or excessively burdensome with respect to the other one; (ii) secondly (in cases where repair or replacement is impossible or excessively burdensome, or where repair or replacement have not been made within a reasonable period of time, or where the repair or replacement have caused significant inconvenience to the consumer) a discounted price or the termination of the agreement, according to the preference of the user. The requested solution is excessively expensive if it entails unreasonable expenses for the Seller compared to alternative solutions, considering (i) the value that the good would have if the non-conformity did not exist; (ii) the extent of the non-conformity; (iii) the possibility that the alternative solution may be achieved without significantly inconveniencing the consumer. The Seller shall not be held liable in the event of damage of any kind resulting from the improper use of the Product or in the event of damage resulting from unforeseeable circumstances or force majeure.

In caso di risoluzione del contratto, il Venditore restituirà al consumatore l’importo complessivo pagato, costituito dal prezzo di acquisto del

Prodotto, dalle spese di spedizione e da ogni altro eventuale costo aggiuntivo. In caso di riduzione del prezzo, il Venditore restituirà l’importo della riduzione, previamente concordato con il consumatore. L’importo del rimborso o della riduzione verrà accreditato sul mezzo o la soluzione di pagamento utilizzato/a dal consumatore per l’acquisto.

Il Venditore non è responsabile in caso di danni, di qualsivoglia natura, derivanti dall’uso del Prodotto in modo improprio e/o non conforme alle istruzioni fornite dal produttore nonché in caso di danni derivanti da caso fortuito o forza maggiore.
