5. Availability of Products
5.1. The Products made available through SANNIO GOURMET by the Seller are those indicated in the catalogue published on SANNIO GOURMET as "sold and shipped" or "sold" by the Seller.
5.2. Each Product is accompanied by an information sheet that illustrates its main characteristics ("Product Sheet"). The Product Sheet also contains information on the availability of each Product, which is continuously updated. However, since SANNIO GOURMET can be visited by more than one user at the same time, each user may simultaneously send a purchase order for the same Product. In such cases, therefore, the Product may be available for a short period of time, being sold out or not immediately available.
5.3. If the Product is no longer available for the reasons indicated above or in other cases of unavailability of the Product, without prejudice to the rights attributed to the user by law, and by the resolution provisions of Articles. 1453 et seq. of the Italian Civil Code, the Seller will immediately notify the user directly or through the messaging system of the platform. The user will, therefore, be entitled to terminate the contract immediately, without any right to compensation for damages, provided that the original order has not been concluded and/or the payment has not been collected. Alternatively, the user may accept one of the following proposals of the Seller:
(i) if a restocking of the Product is possible, an extension of the delivery terms, with indication by the Seller of the new delivery term of the restocked Product;
(ii) if it is not possible to restock the Product, the supply of a different product, of equivalent or higher value, upon payment, in the latter case, of the difference. The user must promptly notify the Seller of his choice through the platform's messaging system.
5.4. In the event that the user makes use of the right of termination referred to in art. 61, IV and V paragraph, Codice del Consumo, and the payment of the total amount due ("Total Amount Due") has already taken place, the Seller will refund without undue delay and, in any case, within 15 working days of receipt of the order, without the right to a surcharge of any kind and so essential. The amount of the refund will be communicated to the user through the platform's messaging system and will be credited to the same means of payment used by the user for the purchase. Any delays in the credit may depend on the bank and the type of credit card used, without the right to a surcharge of any kind and so essential.
5.5. In the case of orders having as object a plurality of Products sold by the Seller ("Multiple Order"), if the occurrence of unavailability concerns only one or some of the purchases object of the Multiple Order, the user will be entitled to immediately revoke his proposal, limited to the Product or Products that have become unavailable, with consequent reimbursement of the amount relating to said Product or Products. The same right is granted to the user in the event that the order consists of Products sold by more than one Seller including products of SANNIO TRADE SRL ("Mixed Order") and the unavailability concerns one or more Products of only one of the Sellers.
6. Product Information
6.1. Each Product is accompanied by the so-called Product Sheet. The images and descriptions on SANNIO GOURMET reproduce, as faithfully as possible, the characteristics of the Products on sale. The colours of the Products may differ from the real colours due to the settings of the computer systems or computers used by the users to display them. Furthermore, the Product images in the Product Sheet may differ in size or in relation to any accessory products. These images should therefore be considered as indicative and with the tolerances of use. For the purposes of the purchase contract, the description of the Product contained in the order form sent by the user shall prevail.
6.2. It is understood, however, that SANNIO TRADE SRL is not responsible for any discrepancies in the Products from what is presented in the Product Sheet and sold by the Seller.
7. Prices
7.1. All prices of the Products published on SANNIO GOURMET are expressed in Euro and are inclusive of Value Added Tax as due according to Italian and European regulations in the case of products sold in the EU countries indicated below.
7.2. The Seller reserves the right to change the price of the Products, at any time, without notice, provided that the price charged to the user will be that indicated on SANNIO GOURMET at the time of placing the order and that no account will be taken of any changes (increasing or decreasing) subsequent to the transmission of the same. The price may in any case be subject to variations in the event that the prices of a product indicated on SANNIO GOURMET are, due to obvious material error, objectively incompatible with the normal market prices of that Product.
7.3. In the event that a Product is offered on SANNIO GOURMET at a discounted price, the Product Sheet will indicate the full reference price against which the discount is calculated. It is understood that the offer of Products at discounted prices will be made only if the full reference price of the Product corresponds to the actual market price of the same. In the event that no indication is included, it should be understood that the full reference price is the price at which the Product was previously offered for sale on SANNIO GOURMET.
8. Purchase Orders
8.1. The purchase contract shall be considered concluded only upon payment of the total due amount. In the event of non-payment of the due amount, the order will be cancelled and the user will be notified immediately.
8.2. The Seller will ship the Products only after receiving confirmation of the successful payment of the total amount due.
8.3. The risk of loss or damage to the Products, for reasons not attributable to the Seller will be transferred to the buyer, when the latter, or a third party designated by him - other than the carrier - becomes the material owner of the Products.
9. Methods of payment
9.1. The payment of the Products purchased by the Seller through SANNIO GOURMET can be made by credit card and alternative payment methods indicated in point 9.5.
9.2. In order to guarantee the security of payments made by SANNIO GOURMET and to prevent fraud, the Seller reserves the right to ask the Buyer, through the platform's messaging system, to send, by the same means, a front/back copy of his identity card and, in the event that the holder of the order is different from the holder of the credit card, of the latter's identity card. The request message will specify the period within which the document must reach the Seller, which will not, in any case, exceed 5 working days and subsequent to the request. While waiting for the requested document, the order will be considered suspended.
9.3. In the event that the Seller does not receive such documents within the specified term or receives expired documents or for any other reason that is not valid, the contract shall be considered terminated by right pursuant to and for the purposes of art. 1456 of the Italian Civil Code, without prejudice to the Seller's right to compensation for any damage resulting from the user's breach of contract. The termination of the contract, of which the user will be notified no later than 5 working days after the deadline for sending the documents requested, will result in the cancellation of the order, resulting in a refund of the Total Due Amount and the application, as far as compatible, of art. 5.4 above, as well as a penalty of 10% of the Total Amount Due which will be deducted when refunding general expenses and management charges.
9.4. In the event of receipt by the Seller of valid documentation within the term indicated in the request message referred to in art. 9.2, the delivery terms applicable to the Product shall start from the date of receipt of the same.
9.5. The Seller uses the secure payment service of https://www.gestpay.it/ which allows the method of payment by managing credit cards (Mastercard, Visa, American Express) and many alternative payment methods such as Apple Pay, PayPal, Sofort, IDeal, Yandex, Qiwi, Alipay, UnionPay, which provides for the use of the SSL security protocol or its evolution. Confidential credit card information (card number, holder, expiry date, security code) is encrypted and transmitted directly to the payment service provider. The Seller and SANNIO TRADE SRL therefore never have access to and do not store the data of the credit card used by the user to pay for the Products except in the case, limited to the data relating to the card holder, as referred to in art. 9.2.
10. Invoicing
10.1. The invoice, which will be issued by the Seller, will be included in the package containing the product, and can also be sent, at the request of the user, in PDF format. For the issue of the invoice, the information provided for this purpose by the user, which he/she declares and guarantees to be true, will be used as a basis, and the Seller will be provided with all the necessary information and indemnities in this regard.
11. Delivery of Products
11.1. The delivery of the Products purchased on SANNIO GOURMET is made in Italy, to the shipping address indicated by the user in the order form (so-called home delivery), at the door not being provided, and being excluded porterage. Orders from France, Portugal, Spain, UK, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Switzerland, Austria may also be accepted, but in this case all the maximum terms provided for in this contract for the purpose of delivery of the order will automatically double, and the purchase remains governed by these general conditions of contract.

11.3. The methods of home delivery to the door, with the relative terms and costs, are indicated in the order summary.
11.4. The amount of delivery charges due in relation to a specific order and which may vary depending on the place of delivery is expressly and separately indicated (in Euros and inclusive of VAT), during the purchase process, in the summary of the order and, in any case, before the user proceeds to transmit the same. Delivery costs are the responsibility of the user, unless otherwise indicated.
11.5. If it is necessary to proceed to the reimbursement of delivery costs with reference to Multiple Orders, the Seller will proceed to the reimbursement of the entire cost of delivery costs, if greater than zero euro, only in the case of:
(i) withdrawal, if allowed and besides the exclusion under Article. 59 of the Codice del Consumo which excludes from the faculties for all food and / or food and wine;
(ii) resolution, which apply to all the Products referred to in the Multiple Order. In the event of withdrawal and when the termination concerns only certain Products of the Multiple Order, the refund will be proportional to the cost of each Product. In any case, the amount of the delivery costs to be returned may never exceed the amount actually paid by the user.
11.6. Delivery is at street level and will be made, unless otherwise indicated, from Monday to Friday during normal office hours (from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.), excluding national holidays.
11.7. The user acknowledges that the withdrawal of the Product is a specific obligation of the user deriving from the purchase contract. In the event of non-delivery due to the absence of the consignee at the address specified in the Purchase order, the courier will leave in the letterbox a notice of passage containing the number to contact him. The courier may make another delivery attempt. If the second attempt is unsuccessful, the package will be deposited "in stock" with the courier. The user is required to collect the Product within 5 calendar days from the second day following the date of the notice of passage. After the days of storage, the Product will be returned to the Seller's warehouse.
11.8. As soon as the Product is returned to the Seller, SANNIO GOURMET will notify the user asking him/her to reply within 15 days confirming the original delivery address or indicating any other delivery address.
11.9. In the event that the user does not respond to the SANNIO GOURMET request within 15 days, the purchase contract shall be considered terminated by right. In this case, the Seller will not refund the user the Total Amount Due as a penalty and compensation for damages for the termination of the contract that operates ipso iure and ipso facto.
11.10. In the event that the user responds to the Seller's request within the established term, the Seller will make a second shipment to the address indicated by the user with transport costs to be paid by him/her in advance to the shipment itself. If the second delivery attempt is also unsuccessful, the purchase contract shall be considered terminated by right, without the right to a refund of the Total Due Amount and the costs of the second shipment in the manner indicated above as a penalty and compensation for damages for the termination of the contract that operates ipso iure and ipso facto.
11.11. Delivery periods commence on the date of order confirmation, unless otherwise stated. In the event of failure to indicate the delivery date, it will, in any case, take place within sixty days from the date of conclusion of the contract.
11.12. Those who have not collected the package more than twice cannot make purchases on SANNIO GOURMET. In the event that such person places orders in violation of this provision, the purchase contract may be considered terminated by right pursuant to and for the purposes of art. 1456 cc. The termination of the contract will be communicated to the user and implies the return of the Total Amount Due in the manner and under the terms of art. 5.4 above.
11.13. It is the user's responsibility to check the conditions of the Product that has been delivered to them. It being understood that the risk of loss or damage to the Products, for reasons not attributable to the Seller, is transferred to the user when the latter, or a third party designated by the same and different from the carrier, physically takes possession of the Products. The user is advised to check the number of Products received and that the packaging is intact, not damaged, not wet or otherwise altered, even in the closing materials (adhesive tape or metal straps) and is invited, in his interest, to indicate on the transport document of the carrier, any anomalies, accepting the package with reservation. The unreserved receipt of the Products, in fact, does not allow the user to take legal action against the carrier in the event of loss or damage to the Products, unless the loss or damage is due to intent or gross negligence of the carrier and except for partial loss or damage not recognizable at the time of delivery, provided that, in the latter case, the damage is reported as soon as known and no later than eight days after receipt. In the event that the package shows obvious signs of tampering, damage or alteration, the user is advised to promptly notify the Seller. In any case, the application of the rules on the right of withdrawal and the legal guarantee of conformity remains unaffected.
11.14. In the event that the Product purchased is not delivered or is delivered late with respect to the delivery terms indicated during the purchase process and in the order confirmation, which unless otherwise indicated is sixty days from payment date, the user, pursuant of art. 61 of the Codice del Consumo, invites the Seller to make the delivery within an additional period appropriate to the circumstances ("Additional Term") not less than the original term. If this additional period expires without the Products having been delivered to him, the user is entitled to terminate the contract, without prejudice to the right to compensation for damages. The user is not responsible for granting the Seller the above Additional Term if:
a) the Seller has expressly refused to deliver the Products;
b) compliance with the delivery date indicated during the purchase process and in the order confirmation must be considered essential, taking into account all the circumstances that accompanied the conclusion of the contract;
c) the user has informed the Seller, before the conclusion of the contract, that delivery by a given date is essential not less than twenty days from order acceptance date. In the aforementioned cases, if the user does not receive the Products within the delivery time indicated during the purchase process and in the order confirmation, he/she is entitled to terminate the contract immediately, without prejudice to the right to compensation for damages. In the event of termination of the Contract pursuant to art. 61, paragraph III, of the Codice del Consumo or termination in the Excluded Cases, SANNIO GOURMET will reimburse the user the Total Due Amount without undue delay. The refund will be made in accordance with the procedures set out in art. 11.19. In any case, SANNIO GOURMET undertakes to inform the user, promptly and by e-mail, of the delay in delivery, indicating at the same time the new delivery term, if available ("New Delivery Term") and, in the event that the user does not proceed to the setting of the Supplementary Term ex art. 61, III, Codice del Consumo or, if the conditions are met, the Termination of the Contract ex art. 61, paragraph III, Codice del Consumo or the Termination of the Contract in the Excluded Cases, without prejudice to the possibility for the user to avail him/herself at any time of such remedies and/or of the ordinary means of protection made available by law, the Seller also undertakes to:
(i) in the case of delivery with a delay of between 1 and 7 working days with respect to the new delivery term, reimburse the user who so requests the delivery costs, if already paid, within ten working days from the date of dispatch.

(iii) if delivery is delayed by more than 15 working days with respect to the New Delivery Time or, in any case, by 20 days with respect to the original delivery time, it is offered the user who so requests, in addition to the provisions of art. 11.15 (ii) above, the supply of a different Product of equivalent or higher value, subject to payment, in the latter case, of the difference and with the express consent of the user.
11.15. The above provisions also apply in the case of multiple orders that must be delivered separately.
11.16. In both cases, in the event of failure to send the Delayed Notice E-mail or in the event of failure to set the New Delivery Term itself, all the terms referred to in articles 11.15 (i), (ii) and (iii) and 11.16 (i), (ii) and (iii) above shall start from the original delivery term.
11.17. The user may accept, even tacitly, the New Delivery Term in the cases referred to in articles 11.15 and 11.16, without prejudice to his/her right to refuse delivery, to terminate the contract and to avail himself of the ordinary means of protection made available by law. In the cases referred to in Articles 11.15 (ii) and (iii) and 11.16 (ii) and (iii), the user's choice must be promptly communicated to SANNIO GOURMET through the platform's messaging system.
11.18. In all cases referred to in Articles 11.15 and 11.16 where a refund is due to the user, the amount of the refund will be credited to IBAN to be notified by the user. Any delays in the credit may depend on the bank and in any case will never be attributable to SANNIO TRADE SRL.

12.1. The user who is a consumer has the right to withdraw, without prejudice to the exclusions provided for in art. 59 of the Codice del Consumo on food products such as all those offered by the SANNIO GOURMET platform, from the contract of purchase of the Product without having to provide any reasons and without having to incur costs other than those provided below, within the period of fourteen calendar days that run:

12.11. In the event that one of the legal hypotheses becomes true, the right of withdrawal does not apply, this exclusion will be given specific and express warning during the purchase process, before the user proceeds to transmit the order, since a special field with a flag must be selected.
