2.3 The publication of the PRODUCTS on the SITE constitutes an invitation to the USER to make a purchase proposal (‘ORDER’) to SAVIFIN.

3. PRICE OF PRODUCTS
3.1. The price of the PRODUCTS (‘PRICE’) is inclusive of VAT and does not include any taxes, duties and levies applicable in the country of destination of the PRODUCTS where this is different from Italy. These costs, which differ from country to country, are borne exclusively by the USER, who is responsible for checking the amount with the competent customs authorities. Should SAVIFIN be required by law to advance such taxes, duties and levies on behalf of the USER, the USER undertakes to reimburse the advance on their behalf before the shipment/receipt of the PRODUCTS.
3.2. Shipping costs (‘EXPENSES’) will be added to the PRICE of the PRODUCTS and may vary depending on the shipping method and the country of destination. The total amount due for the PRODUCTS and the EXPENSES shall be clearly stated and communicated to the USER, prior to the conclusion of the CONTRACT.

For destinations outside Italian territory, the average delivery time of the PRODUCTS will be communicated on a case-by-case basis.

5.3 The shipment shall take place after the conclusion of the CONTRACT as defined in Clause 2.6 here above.
5.4 The USER shall not be liable, for any reason whatsoever, to SAVIFIN in case of delay in the execution of the ORDER and/or in the shipment/delivery of the PRODUCTS covered by the AGREEMENT.

5.6 For each CONTRACT concluded through the WEBSITE, SAVIFIN shall issue a delivery note, or, for those USERS who have entered their VAT number when placing the ORDER, the relevant legally required accounting document for the PRODUCTS purchased and the EXPENSES. These documents will be sent, at the option of SAVIFIN, either by e-mail as indicated by the USER when placing the ORDER or together with the PRODUCTS with the shipment. It will not be possible to make any changes to the accounting document after it has been issued, nor will it be possible to issue such a document if a USER, who has not indicated his VAT number in the data entry form, requests it at a later date, even before the shipment of PRODUCTS.
5.7 In order for SAVIFIN to correctly deliver the PRODUCTS, the presence of the USER or his/her representative is always required. If the addressee is not available at the time and place of delivery specified in the ORDER or subsequently agreed, the PRODUCTS shall be temporarily stored at the warehouse of the delivery agent. The USER will then be contacted by SAVIFIN Customer Care and can decide whether to request a new shipment, paying the related cost in advance, or to request a refund of the ORDER under the conditions and limitations referred to in paragraph 6. If the second delivery is also unsuccessful, SAVIFIN will proceed to refund the ORDER, under the conditions and limitations set out in point 6.
5.8 Once SAVIFIN has reimbursed the USER, the AGREEMENT shall be deemed to be automatically and definitively terminated, without prejudice to SAVIFIN’s right to claim for further damages.

5.10 In case of force majeure, unavailability of means of transport, unforeseeable events, SAVIFIN reserves the right to terminate the CONTRACT or to split, postpone or cancel, in whole or in part, the foreseen delivery, if such events cause a delay in deliveries or make them difficult or impossible and/or result in a significant increase of cost for SAVIFIN. In such cases, SAVIFIN shall promptly notify its decisions to the e-mail address provided by the USER. In such cases, the latter shall be entitled to obtain the reimbursement of the PRICE, excluding any further claim or compensation, for any reason whatsoever, against SAVIFIN.

6.2 Pursuant to Articles 64 et seq. of the CONSUMER CODE, the USER has the right to withdraw from the purchase without penalty and without specifying the reason.

6.3.1. withdrawal may be exercised by contacting Customer Care at resi@ultrasoundtech.it or by sending a registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt to SAVIFIN S.r.l. c/o G.I.F. Via Desio 47/49, 20813 Bovisio Masciago (MB), Italy and following the directions it will provide;
6.3.2. the withdrawal may also be applied to a single PRODUCT in a single ORDER, it being understood that the USER may not exercise the withdrawal only for a part of the purchased PRODUCT; it is specified that the single components of a kit, if purchased as such, are not PRODUCTS but part of the PRODUCT;

6.3.6. all PRODUCTS for which the USER has exercised the right of withdrawal must be perfectly intact as the original packaging, complete in all its parts including the packaging material and seals affixed, complete with tags, protective cases, brochures or boxes and any additional documentation and instruction manuals;
6.3.7. if the PRODUCTS for which the right of withdrawal has been exercised are received by SAVIFIN incomplete and/or damaged, SAVIFIN will only be obliged to notify the USER in order to allow him/her, where possible, to exercise his/her right of recourse against the courier chosen to return the PRODUCTS;
6.3.8 SAVIFIN shall not be liable under any circumstances for damage, theft or loss of the returned PRODUCTS until they have been received. All risks shall therefore be borne exclusively by the USER;
6.4 Once the completeness and integrity of the returned PRODUCT has been verified, SAVIFIN will reimburse the USER for the full amount paid for the PRODUCT only -excluding therefore the EXPENSES and any other charge borne by the USER for any reason- included in the AGREEMENT and object of the withdrawal, within and not later than 30 days from the receipt of the same in accordance with the previous point.
6.5 If the return of the PRODUCTS is due to a PRODUCT that is acknowledged to be defective, SAVIFIN will also reimburse the shipping costs included in the INVOICE, possibly reduced in proportion to the value of any other goods included in the same INVOICE.
6.6 If the return of the PRODUCTS is made by the USER per facta concludentia, for example, as a result of refusal to collect and/or impossibility of delivery for reasons attributable to the USER, SAVIFIN will reimburse, if the conditions are met, only the PRICE paid by the USER, less all EXPENSES and costs that may be incurred by SAVIFIN for the transportation of the PRODUCTS from the address of the USER to its warehouses
6.7 If the USER violates, in whole or in part, the provisions of these TERMS and CONDITIONS, the AGREEMENT shall remain valid and effective and SAVIFIN shall make available to the USER the unduly returned PRODUCTS for collection by SAVIFIN, or shall return them to the USER, upon advance payment of the relevant shipping costs.
6.8 The refund will be made by bank transfer using the bank details that the USER must indicate in the communication to be sent to exercise the right of withdrawal. If this is not done at the same time as exercising the right of withdrawal, the period of 30 days shall commence from the time when such communication is received by SAVIFIN.
