Such notice must be sent by registered letter with return receipt attached, addressed: To the kind attention of the Customer Care Service L-Originale di Andrea Adani, Via dei Narcisi 4 - 41126 Modena - Italy.

Right to withdrawal is subject to the following conditions: 6.1 - The right applies to a purchased Product in its entirety. If the Product consists of several components or parts, right to withdrawal cannot be exercised on only a part of the purchased Product. 6.2 - If right to withdrawal is exercised, L-Originale will refund the Customer the full amount of the returned Products within 14 days from the date on which notification of withdrawal was received, without prejudice to the right of L-Originale to suspend payment of the reimbursement until the Products have actually been received.

With reference to the above cases where right to withdrawal is excluded, the Customer is aware and agrees that Products that “are likely to deteriorate or expire rapidly” comprise all food Products (including wines, spirits and beverages), since the characteristics and qualities of these types of Products are subject to alteration, also as a result of improper storage.
