Any user browsing the Website (the “User”) is invited to read the Agreement before completing any order for the purchase of Products on the Website (the “Order”); by sending an Order the User accepts the Agreement. Any amendment to the Agreement will become effective immediately upon publication on the Website and apply to all subsequent Orders.

< 1 > Customers

Placing Orders on the Website is permitted only to natural persons who have the legal capacity to enter into binding agreements in compliance with the applicable law and are acting for purposes unrelated to their business or professional activity (the “Customers”). If requested, the Customers shall provide their name, surname, date of birth, email address, delivery address of the Products, tax code and other personal information. Such information shall be true, accurate and constantly updated. We invite the User prior to place an order to read the privacy policy.

< 2 > Acceptance of an Order – Sale Agreement

The technical steps to place an Order are highlighted in the sequence of pages of the Website, through explanatory texts and graphics. By clicking on “Place order” on the last page of the checkout phase, the Customer will make a contractual proposal to the Seller on the items contained in the virtual “basket”. The receipt of the Order does not constitute acceptance by the Seller of the sale contractual proposal. To complete the Order it is necessary that:

the Customer reads and accepts, by check box, the general conditions of sale;
the Customer fills out, in electronic format by entering all the required data, the Order form (the “Order Form”) containing a summary of the essential characteristics of each Product selected; the price of each Product selected and the total purchase price; the KIND of payment chosen by the Customer; the delivery option selected; the shipping, delivery and return costs; the terms to exercise the right of withdrawal of the Customer and for the application of the legal guarantee of conformity; the estimated delivery times; the methods and terms for returning the purchased Products;
the price of the Products purchased by the Customer, including shipping and delivery costs (where applicable), is paid by the Customer;
the Order Form is received by the Seller;
the Seller receives the Order Form.

By sending of the Order the Customer acknowledges and agrees to pay the purchase price. After the electronic submission of an Order, the Customer will receive an email confirming the receipt of the Order. Such communication is intended to inform the Customer that the Order has been received and to provide him/her with the Order identification number and does not in any way imply acceptance of the Order by the Seller. If one or more data reported in the email is incorrect, the Customer shall promptly notify to the Seller’s customer service (the “Customer Service”) at info@limon-e.com. The acceptance of the Order by the Seller will take place only when the Seller sends the Customer the confirmation of acceptance of the Order (the “Order Confirmation”), which usually occurs when the Products are shipped. The relevant Agreement shall be deemed to have been executed upon receipt of the Order Confirmation by the Customer. Before the Order Confirmation is sent, the Seller reserves the right not to accept an Order at its discretion. In particular, the Seller shall not be liable, for any reason, in the event that an ordered Product is removed from the Website after the relevant Order has been placed. In fact, it may happen that the Website displays, by mistake, Products not available at the moment. In case of partial unavailability of the Order, the Customer Service will contact the Customer to verify his willingness to (i) receive a partial Order; (ii) receive the complete Order in several shipments; or (iii) cancel the Order. In case of total unavailability of the Order, instead, the Customer Service will contact the Customer to inform him/her that the Order cannot be processed and will cancel the relevant Order. In this case, no charge will be made to the Customer.

< 3 > Payments

Payment can be made using the following payment methods (the “Payment Methods”): credit cards, bank transfer, cash on delivery or by PayPal account. Credit, debit or prepaid cards of the Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Postepay circuits are accepted. The Seller will debit the purchase price, as defined below, upon acceptance of the Order. However, at an earlier stage prior to the acceptance of the Order, security checks may be carried out on the Payment Method chosen by the Customer for the Order, for instance, pre-authorization or pre-debiting for precautionary purposes. In order to ensure security in credit card transactions, the Seller uses a primary payment gateway to authorize payment of Orders (“Payment Gateway”); consequently, the Seller does not directly manage any financial information relating to the Payment Method used by the Customer, nor does the Website process any financial information provided for the completion of the Order. Only after the transaction has been completed, the Payment Gateway communicates to the Seller the outcome of the payment, without providing any financial information. The Payment Gateway protects the details of the credit or debit card used by encrypting sensitive information to ensure that they are transmitted in a safe way. The Website uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology to ensure a higher standard of security on each Order. In the unlikely event of an error, negligence or tort relating to the management of the transaction related to an Order by the Payment Gateway and payment brokerage systems, the Seller shall not be liable for such error, negligence or tort. The Seller reserves the right to cancel a transaction and to cancel the relevant Order if fraudulent use of the Payment Method adopted for the Order is reported. Furthermore, the Seller shall not be liable in the event of any misuse of a Payment Method by a third party that is not attributable to its error or negligence.

< 4 > Shipping and Delivery

The Seller ships and delivers Orders using an express courier service. The Seller undertakes to deliver the Orders to the Customers, in compliance with the delivery terms indicated on the Website at the time of purchase and, in any case, within 30 days from the date the Order Confirmation is sent to the Customer. The Order Confirmation is sent to the Customer when the Products are delivered to the courier for shipment. In certain circumstances, such as, by way of example, periods of sales or company closure, delivery times may vary. The Seller shall not be held liable for delays in delivery that are not attributable to its fault or negligence. Therefore, the Seller will not be liable for delays due to force majeure, strikes, natural disasters and any other facts relating to the provision of courier services or any other circumstances beyond Seller’s control. The Order Confirmation indicates the tracking number that the Customer may use to monitor the shipping and delivery process of the Products on the courier’s website. The Customer is invited to do everything in its power to facilitate the delivery of the Order, making itself available for receipt. The courier will make a first attempt to deliver the Order to the address indicated by the Customer. If the delivery is unsuccessful, the courier will inform the Customer of the delivery attempt and will try to agree with the Customer on a further delivery of the Order. In the event that the courier definitively fails to deliver the Order, the Customer Service will contact the Customer to verify his interest in a new shipment. At the time of delivery, the Customer must verify the accuracy of the number of packages and the integrity of the outer packaging. If the Customer finds anomalies in the delivery, for example with reference to the number of packages or in the presence of damage to the outer packaging, the Customer shall sign the delivery document of the courier with reservations and contact the Customer Service. If the Customer fails to do so, the Customer may not subsequently make further objection to any dispute regarding the delivery, except as provided for in Article 7 below in cases of hidden defects and in compliance with the Consumer Code. In case of non-delivery of the Products within the terms indicated, the Customer must inform the Seller who will check with the courier the status of the shipment and any defect.
