5.6 All products on the website are subject to the actual availability of the Store Partners.

In placing an Order that includes alcoholic beverages, the User confirms that he/she is at least 18 years old.

This clause applies to any other product and/or service reserved for adults in accordance with current legislation and which is requested by a User through the Website.

However, if you still wish to modify or withdraw from the Order, you may contact Customer Service and request to modify or cancel your order and obtain a refund. You expressly acknowledge that there is no obligation or assurance, however, that Customer Service will be able to contact the Partner or that the Partner will accept your change or cancellation requests.

– supply of digital content (including applications, software, e-books, MP3s, etc.) through non-material support (for example a CD or DVD) if at the time of placing the order the user has expressly allowed the beginning of the execution by accepting the loss of the right of withdrawal as a result of the start of execution;
– supply of newspapers, periodicals and magazines with the exception of subscription contracts of the above;
– supply of food or alcoholic beverages, where price has been agreed at the time of the completion of the Order, which can be delivered after thirty days only and whose actual value depends on market fluctuations that cannot be controlled by Cosaporto.
7. SHIPMENT OF PRODUCTS
7.1 In the final step of the order process, the User will indicate the delivery address and agree on the expected delivery time.
7.2 Should perishable products be ordered, the User accepts his/her responsibility for cooperating with Cosaporto in relation to the delivery or the ordered products within the time agreed and to their agreed destination.
7.3 Deliveries are made by the Porters appointed by Cosaporto to the address indicated by the User in the Order form.
7.4 Delivery times are those indicated in the Purchase Order and specified in the Order confirmation. However, the times of order processing and delivery indicated on the website at the time of execution are to be considered as indicative, and may, therefore, be subject to change. In case of delay and/or to obtain any information in relation to the Order, the User can contact the Cosaporto Customer service at assistenza@cosaporto.it.
7.5 In the event of impediments of delivery due to third parties and to force majeure caused by events beyond the control of Cosaporto, the latter will contact the User via e-mail and/or by phone to inform of the delay in delivery or the impediment to delivery. In such a case, Cosaporto cannot be held responsible in any way. Cosaporto is not liable and is not obliged to compensate the user for any non- fulfilment or late delivery due to the above reasons.
7.6 The delivery of the Products is deemed completed when the Products ordered are made available to the User and/or the final consignee, at the address specified in the Order form.
7.7 In case the User and/or the recipient is not available at the address indicated and at the agreed time in the Order form, the delivery service will attempt to contact the user at the mobile number provided and see if the order can be left with a neighbour or in a safe place and hence Cosaporto will be considered free of its obligation. Once 15 (fifteen) minutes have elapsed from the last contact attempt by e-mail and telephone without acknowledgment from the User, Cosaporto will be considered free of its obligation to deliver the Products, unless the Porter has easily found a concierge or a neighbour who has agreed (with the User) to receive the ordered Products. In this case, Cosaporto will be released from any further responsibility by delivering the Product/s to this person who will sign the delivery receipt. For these reasons, the User should verify the correctness of the data provided: address, time and telephone number/mail.
7.8 In the above circumstance, Cosaporto will send an e-mail to the User to inform him of the failed delivery or if delivery has been handed over to a concierge/porter or neighbour as agreed. The User assumes all responsibility for the delivery of the Products according to the above provisions. In case of non-delivery due to the unavailability of the User or person who agrees to receive the Products on behalf of the User, Cosaporto will retain the price paid by the User as a penalty fee.
7.9 At the time of delivery, the User is required to check the condition of the product. If the package shows obvious signs of tampering or alteration, the User must report it to Cosaporto immediately. In the event of failure to immediately notify Cosaporto, the Order is considered to be fully accepted by the User.
8. PRICE, PAYMENT AND BILLING
8.1 The payment can be made through Paypal, VISA, and MASTERCARD.
8.2 Cosaporto will ensure that the payment system provided is always available and functioning, however, it cannot guarantee continuous and uninterrupted access. For more information on the payment system, the User is invited to check terms and conditions of the chosen payment service.
8.3 The User will receive (i) the receipt relating to the Order and issued by the Store Partner, together with the package delivered by Porter and (ii) the invoice relating to the delivery service provided by Cosaporto via email sent by Cosaporto.
9. LEGAL WARRANTY
9.1 The guarantee regime on products sold on the Website differs depending on whether the User is a “consumer” or a “professional” pursuant to The Sale and Supply of Goods to Consumers Regulations 2002 and Directive 1999/44/EC concerning “certain aspects of the sale of consumer goods and associated guarantees”.
If the User purchases a product as a “consumer”, he/she shall be entitled to the legal guarantee which the seller is obliged to provide by law on each product sold (“Legal Guarantee”).
The Legal Guarantee – which Cosaporto is obliged to provide as a seller – guarantees the good from defects of conformity with respect to the sales contract.
In the case of lack of conformity of the product and if the nature of the asset allows it, the Legal Guarantee gives the User the right to repair or replacement, or a price reduction or termination of the contract. Cosaporto is therefore liable for defects of conformity if they occur within two years from the date of delivery but the User loses these rights if he does not report to Cosaporto the lack of conformity within two months from the date in which has discovered the defect.
In the case of ready-to-eat food, which by its nature is perishable or subject to expiry in a shorter term, the defect must be reported within that reduced period. (Translator’s note: I think it is implied that the shorter term should coincide with the sell by date normally indicated on food items).
10 UPDATES – LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY
10.1 Cosaporto updates its website and these General Conditions on a regular basis. Nevertheless the Products on the website may not be up-to-date should the store partner not inform Cosaporto in a timely manner.

10.2 Cosaporto reserves the right to correct inaccuracies even after sending the Order, or to change and/or update information at any time without prior notice, without prejudice to the User’s rights as governed by these General Conditions and as per the Consumer Code.
