MartiniSPA shall not be liable for any damage to the Products which may have occurred after delivery to the carrier responsible for the transport of the goods, and for delays in delivery to the latter attributable.

6.2 – PRODUCT SHIPPING PROCEDURE

The delivery to the Recipient of the Order provides for the signature for acceptance on the proof of delivery that the carrier will store with registration on the PDA and the relative name of the person who withdraws. In this sense, the digitized signature is actual proof of delivery and cannot be contested. It is not possible to raise any dispute relating to the shipment itself if the parcel has been delivered. To this end, as mentioned above, the carrier’s computer system is authentic. Upon delivery, the Customer must verify the content, conformity and status of the Product (or Products). In case of delays, failures, total or partial losses or other problems, it is Customer’s right to appeal the carrier without the liability of MartiniSPA being ever taken into account. Therefore, upon delivery, MartiniSPA recommends to the Customer, before signing the receipt document, to verify the status of the delivered Products. If anomalies are detected, the Customer must refuse the delivery of the Products or put in writing their own, detailed and dated reserves. Such reserves shall be confirmed to MartiniSPA by registered letter with return receipt in the three (3) working days following the delivery of the Products. Otherwise the Recipient must, in any case, in any situation where the Order has not been delivered under optimal conditions, i.e. the Products purchased received in the correct quantities and without any problems of conformity or damage, contact Customer Service in the time and manner described in these GCS. In particular, by contacting the Customer Service, the latter will do as best as possible to resolve the problems occurring, within the limits of what is already indicated in these GCS, and explaining to the Recipient of the Order the modalities to proceed and, if where possible, alternatives of choice to proceed.

In case of absence of the Recipient during the delivery, the carrier will leave a notice of passage to the delivery address indicated by the Customer and will return on the working day after the date of the first attempt to deliver. In case of absence of the Recipient even on the second attempt to deliver, the Products will be returned to MartiniSPA which reserves the right to reimburse the price of the Products, however deducted the shipping costs incurred for the return transport and the administrative management, preventively quantifiable in € 10.00, and which will be at the Customer’s sole expense.

It is specified that a defect of minor conformity for which the remedy for repair/replacement cannot be assessed, does not entitle the contract to be terminated. However, we invite the Recipient of the Order to check the status of the parcel and the Products at the same time as the Order is received. If anomalies occur in relation to the parcel received (open, damaged or otherwise) or to the Products themselves (in addition, damaged or defective), the Buyer or the Recipient of the Order shall be obliged to return MartiniSPA the Products, as below detailed procedures in these GCS

In any case, the Recipient of the Order will be responsible for the dispatch of the Products concerned with a service that allows the traceability and confirmation of delivery to the destination. However, it is strictly necessary that the Buyer does not act autonomously before having agreed with the Customer Service, but have to contact it in the time and manner described in these GCS.
