In order to exert this right, the Purchaser must send written communication to the Supplier within 14 days from the date of receipt of the Products or, should the Purchaser decide to avail him/herself of such right before receiving the Products, such communication can be sent at any time before their delivery.

Right of Withdrawal communication shall be sent by registered mail only, to: Casa del Parmigiano di Gastaldello Luigi & figli s.n.c., Piazza Castello, 25 – 36063 Marostica (VI), or by Certified Electronic Mail to casadelparmigiano@pecancit.it and anticipated by E-mail to info@famigliagastaldello.it to allow the Supplier to take immediate action.

Customer Service will create a file for the management of the returned goods and will communicate to the Purchaser instructions on how to return the Products, which will take place with a Courier chosen by the Supplier.

17.2 Right of Withdrawal shall be thus regulated:

a) right of withdrawal is applicable to the Product purchased as a whole; whenever the Product is made up of more parts, right of withdrawal cannot apply to part, or parts, of the Product.

b) when right of withdrawal is invoked by the Purchaser, the Supplier will refund the Purchaser the entire sum of the returned goods, shipping costs included, whenever applicable, within 14 (fourteen) days from reception of notification, it being understood that the Supplier has the right to suspend refund of the payment until reception of the goods. The refund will be made using the same method of payment used by the Purchaser, unless the latter requests otherwise. In the case of wire transfer, the Purchaser must provide full bank details (bank account holder name, bank address and IBAN).

c) Towards ensuring free-of-charge returns according to chapter 7, Products must be returned in the same box/package they were originally delivered with.

d) Besides the cases outlined in the Premise (i.e. Purchaser not being a Consumer requesting an invoice), right of withdrawal is not applicable in the following instances, pursuant to article 59, Legislative Decree 21/2014:

- any order of Products that have been taylor-packaged or clearly personalised;

- any order of Products at risk of deterioration, or that is going to expire rapidly;

- any order of sealed/vacuum packed Products that can not be returned for hygienic reasons, or for reasons otherwise connected to Health & Safety, or Products that have been opened after delivery.

17.3 With reference to the exclusion cases referred to above, the Purchaser is informed and must accept that Products that risk deterioration, or that are rapidly going to expire, include all food Products (including wines, alcoholic drinks and drinks in general), as characteristics and qualities of such Products are subject to being damaged even just because of inappropriate conservation.

For these reasons of hygiene and to protect the public, right of withdrawal covers only those Products purchased from the Website that can be put back for sale without jeopardising consumers' health (i.e. books, gadgets, kitchen tools, etc.)

17.4 In case of exclusion from the right of withdrawal, the Supplier will send back to the Purchaser the Products bought, billing the latter with shipping costs.
