Purchase Procedure - Purchase Order - Summary Email - Entry Gift
-
To purchase a Product through the Site and send a Purchase Order you must first create an Account, by communicating and registering the data requested to you. You can also create an Account after you have chosen the Product of your interest, but before sending a Purchase Order. The data provided when creating your Account will be processed by us in accordance with the applicable legislation on the protection of personal data. For further information on how we process personal data, please refer to the Legal Notices of the Site.
-
The Purchase Procedure enables the choice of the Product of your interest and of the requested quantities, as well as the insertion of the data necessary to make the payment and to allow us to deliver the Product to you. Until the Purchase Order is sent, it will be possible to modify such Purchase Order, simply by following the instructions on the Site.
-
After completing the Purchase Procedure and after having verified the summary setting out the data of your order, if you wish to purchase a Product, you can send a Purchase Order by clicking on the appropriate button. The submission of a Purchase Order constitutes a definitive and irrevocable proposal of purchase and implies the full acceptance of the information contained on the Site and of the Conditions of Sale as well as the assumption of an obligation to pay the Price owed for the ordered Product. Once sent, the Purchase Order is therefore no longer modifiable.
-
We will send you a Summary Email to confirm receipt of the Purchase Order to the email address you provided when creating your Account. The Summary Email will contain a summary of your Purchase Order as well as our Conditions of Sale. Please print the Summary Email or save it on a durable support.
-
The Summary Email only confirms receipt of your Purchase Order and its acceptance by us, but does not constitute acceptance of the Purchase Order and does not determine the entering of a contract.
-
LongLife reserves the right to review the correctness and completeness of your Purchase Order and to request additional information from you, if necessary to properly execute your Purchase Order. If you fail to send the additional information requested within 48 hours of the request, your Purchase Order will be cancelled, but you may proceed to send a new Purchase Order.
-
Your Purchase Order will be saved by us in our systems so that you can request a copy or ask to receive it in case of loss or need, by using our Contacts.
-
If you do not receive the Summary Email within two days of sending the Purchase Order or if you have any queries regarding the Purchase Procedure or the Purchase Order, please contact us by telephone at +39 02 5165531 or by e-mail at
info@longlife.com.
-
Exclusively on the first Purchase Order inserted and submitted by a Consumer after its first registration with the Site and subject to the achievement of the Minimum Consideration threshold (i.e. € 30,00, excluding shipping costs) an Entry Gift having a value of euro 5,00 (five/00) shall be applicable. The Entry Gift shall be visible – and shall be automatically subtracted from the Price owed by the Consumer – during the Purchase Procedure.

The Entry Gift is strictly personal and cannot be assigned or transferred by the Consumer. In the event of invalidity, withdrawal or termination for any reason of a Purchase Order or of a Contract, the Entry Gift will be usable under the same terms and conditions mentioned hereabove on the first successive Purchase Order. In no event – and not even in case of invalidity, withdrawal or termination for any reason of a Purchase Order or of a Contract – the Entry Gift will be replaced with the reimbursement of a correspondent amount in currency.
-
Acceptance of the Purchase Order - Conclusion of the Contract
-
The Contract of sale of the ordered Product is considered entered into with the acceptance by us of your Purchase Order.

-
Please note that if we do not receive the full payment due within 4 working days from the date of submission of your Purchase Order, your Purchase Order will have to be considered rejected by us and will be cancelled accordingly. In this case you will receive a notice of cancellation of your Purchase Order at the e-mail address you provided during registration, but it will be possible for you to place a new Purchase Order.

Any payments received after the cancellation of your Purchase Order will be returned to you. We will use the same method of payment as you used in the Purchase Order in order to reimburse you. In case of bank transfer, the refund will take place within 4 working days from the moment you have provided us with the bank details necessary to make the transfer in your favour.
-
Without prejudice to the regulations applicable to the Consumer, any right of the Customer to compensation for damages or indemnification, as well as any contractual or extra-contractual liability for direct or indirect damages to persons and/or things, caused by the non-acceptance or execution, even partial, of a Purchase Order, shall be excluded.

The Price of the Products indicated on the Site may be changed at any time by LongLife. Changes to the Price will only be applicable to Purchase Orders placed after the change is published on the Site.

Delivery terms may vary depending on the place of delivery.

If the Product is available in stock, deliveries inside the Italian territory will take place within 48 hours (or 72 hours for the islands and smaller towns) from the time of receipt of the payment owed for the Product. Should the Product be temporarily "unavailable", please check the expected date of availability on the "product sheet" or alternatively contact our customer service. For foreign countries, delivery times are those indicated in the order. In any case, the times indicated are indicative estimates and are not guaranteed.
-
All deliveries of the Products will be at LongLife's risk and the risk will pass to the Customer upon delivery of the Product by the shipper, carrier or other agent appointed by us for delivery. Each shipment will be traceable through the code provided by the courier used through the courier's website. The tracking-code will be sent to you by e-mail upon handing over of the Product to the shipper, carrier or other agent appointed by us for delivery
-
No liability can be attributed to LongLife in case of delay in the execution of the order or in the delivery of the ordered Products. In particular, LongLife S.r.l. declines any liability for any delay if such delay or lack of delivery is attributable to causes beyond its reasonable control such as, by way of example, but not limited to: third party strike actions, terrorism, war, natural disasters, adverse weather.
-
Unless expressly indicated otherwise, delivery is understood to be at street level.
-
At the time of delivery, you will have to check:
- that the number of packages delivered corresponds to that indicated in the transport document;
- that the packaging is intact, not damaged, not wet or otherwise altered, even in the closing materials.
-
Any damage to the packaging and/or the product or the mismatch in the number of packages or indications, must be immediately reported by writing "ACCEPTED WITH RESERVE" on the delivery receipt of the courier. Once you have signed the courier's document, you will not be able to make any objection regarding the external characteristics of the goods delivered. We therefore recommend, even when there are no problems outside the package, to always sign the coupon of the courier with the words "Subject to control". In fact, if this wording is missing and there is damage to the Product, the courier will no longer be held responsible regardless of the presence of insurance or not.
-
Except as provided by the regulations applicable to the Consumer, any problems related to physical integrity, correspondence or completeness of the Products received must be reported, under penalty of forfeiture, within 8 days of delivery, through the complaint procedure.
-
In the event of failure to collect within 5 working days of the material in storage at the warehouses of the courier due to repeated inability to deliver to the address indicated by the Customer, the order will be automatically cancelled. The courier will return the package to LongLife. In this case, you will be required to reimburse all shipping costs (to the customer and back to LongLife S.r.l.).
-
Inside the package there, you will find an invoice with the list of products contained in the package and the details of shipping costs. The invoice will also be available in your Account.
-

The payment due in relation to the purchase of the Product may be made by Paypal or Credit Card. The Customer can choose between these payment methods before sending the Purchase Order.

Under no circumstances will LongLife accept payments in cash, neither directly nor if sent by post.

If the Customer decides to proceed with the purchase of the Products by paying the price by Credit Card or Paypal, the total amount due for the purchase of the Product will be normally charged upon Client’s submission of the Purchase Order.

In this case, the Product will be made available to you for its return and your request for withdrawal will be cancelled. LongLife S.r.l. is not liable in any way for damage or theft/loss of goods returned by uninsured shipments. Upon arrival at the warehouse, the product will be examined to assess any damage or tampering not resulting from transport. If the original package and/or packaging is damaged, LongLife S.r.l. will retain from the refund due a percentage, but not more than 20% of the same, as a contribution to the costs of restoration. If the product has been opened when the seals are broken, the product will not be refunded.

- the goods purchased must be intact.
-
Except as provided for in art. 8.6, LongLife will refund the full amount already paid, within 14 days of receipt of the notice of withdrawal. LongLife S.r.l. reserves the right to withhold the refund until return of the Product.
-
For the refund we will use the same payment method you used for the payment of the Product.
-
The right of withdrawal is excluded in the supply of sealed goods that cannot be returned for reasons of hygiene or related to health protection and were opened after delivery.
-
The right of withdrawal is totally excluded, for lack of the essential condition of integrity of the goods (packaging and/or its contents), in cases where LongLife ascertains:
- the lack of the original outer and/or inner packaging, including its protective wrapping, as well as the opening of the individual packaging;
- the absence of integral elements of the Product;
- damages to the Product for reasons other than transport.
-
In the event of forfeiture of the right of withdrawal, we will return the purchased Product to you, charging the shipping costs.
