Terms & Conditions

§ 1 Basic provisions

(1) The following business terms are applicable to all contracts concluded with us as a supplier (Elsanna Portea S.R.L) through the www.elsannaportea.com web store. Unless otherwise agreed upon, the inclusion, if necessary, of your own conditions is ruled out.

(2)  A ‘consumer’ in the sense of the following regulations is every natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities. The term ‘businessman’ refers to every natural person, legal person or legally responsible partnership that concludes a legal transaction in pursuance of his/its independent professional or commercial activity.

§ 2 Conclusion of the contract

(1) The subject-matter of the contract is the selling of products .

(2) We provide you with a binding offer to conclude a sales agreement subject to the conditions specified in the item description.

(3) The purchase agreement is made by means of the online shopping cart system as follows: Articles intended for purchase are moved to the shopping cart. Using the cart button on the navigation bar, changes can be made at any time. After accessing the checkout page and entering the required personal data, payment, and shipping conditions, all order information is displayed again on the order summary page. The use of an instant payment system such as PayPal will result in being forwarded to the website of the instant payment provider. After logging in to the account, the customer will be returned to the order summary page in our online shop for a final review of the purchase. By clicking on “purchase” to submit the order, the purchase agreement is accepted and the order legally binding.

(4) A detailed order confirmation is automatically sent to the provided email address, which the customer is responsible of having specified correctly. 

§ 3 Right of retention, reservation of proprietary rights

(1) You can only exercise a right of retention if the situation in question involves claims arising from the same contractual relationship.

(2) The goods remain our property until the purchase price is paid in full.

(3) If you are a businessman, the following conditions also apply:

a) We retain ownership of the goods until all the claims arising from the ongoing business relationship have been settled in full. The goods subject to retention of title may not be pledged or transferred by way of security before ownership of the said goods changes hands.

b) You can re-sell the goods within the framework of an orderly transaction. In this regard, you hereby cede all the claims amounting to the magnitude of the billing amount that accrue to you as a result of the re-selling operation to us, and we accept the cession. Furthermore, you are authorised to collect the claim in question. However, insofar as you do not discharge your payment obligations in an orderly fashion, we reserve the right to collect the claim ourselves.

c) In a situation involving the combination and amalgamation of the goods subject to retention of title, we acquire co-ownership of the newly-formed item. This co-ownership corresponds to the ratio that exists between the invoice value of the goods subject to retention of title and the other processed items at the time of processing.

d) If you make a request of this nature, we shall be obligated to release the securities that are due to us, to the extent that the realisable value of our securities exceeds the claim to be secured by more than 10%. We are responsible for selecting the securities to be released.

§ 4 Warranty

(1) The statutory warranty rights are applicable.

(2) The consumer is requested to promptly check the product for completeness, visible defects, and transport damage as soon as it is delivered, and promptly disclose the complaints to us and the shipping company in writing. Even if  not complying with this request, it shall have no effect on legal warranty claims.

(3) Insofar as you are a business, the following difference applies to the aforementioned warranty regulations:

a) It is understood that the details provided by us and the product description provided by the manufacturer are the only things that represent the properties and condition of the product in question. Other advertisements, blurbs and statements issued by the manufacturer are not considered to be representative of the properties and condition of the said product.

b) If the goods are found to be faulty, we shall reserve the right to repair the goods or deliver replacements. If the defect is not removed, you can demand a reduction in the price or withdraw from the contract at your discretion. The defect removal is applicable after a failed second attempt, unless the circumstances prove otherwise, in particular due to the nature of the object and/or defect or other conditions. In case of repair, we must not bear the additional costs, which arise from the transfer of the item to a place other than the place of fulfilment, as far as the transfer does not correspond to the intended use of the item.

c) The warranty period amounts to a period of 90 days after delivery of the product. The reduction in time-limit does not apply:

• to damages culpably attributable to us arising from injury to life, limb or health and for other damages caused by wilful intent or gross negligence;
• insofar as we have wilfully concealed the defect or accepted a warranty for the quality of the goods;
• to goods which are used for a building in accordance with their normal use instructions and whose defects were caused by this;
• for statutory recourse claims, which you have against us in connection with warranty rights.
