Terms and Conditions
SALES CONDITIONS
These Conditions of Sale (hereinafter only “General Conditions”) regulate the sale of products marketed by the company PU’ER TEA SOCIETY by Alessandra Rosy Giorgia Artiano (hereinafter called PU’ER TEA SOCIETY, “the Company”, “the Owner”, “we”, “our”) in order to ensure maximum transparency and clarity in the relationship with users. All sales and purchase transactions between the Seller and the Customer shall be gov-erned by the following General Conditions.
Registration
Users wishing to purchase on the website www.puerteasociety.com and use the services on the website must register. The user who registers declares that he/she has read the Privacy Policy, and that the personal data provided are true and correct, assuming full re-sponsibility for the information provided. In the event of changes, the user is obliged to inform the Company in good time.
Acceptance of sales conditions
The contract stipulated between PU’ER TEA SOCIETY and the customer must be considered concluded, even if only partially, by PU’ER TEA SOCIETY. Such acceptance is con-sidered implied, after having notified the Customer by e-mail. By placing an order, the customer declares to have read all the information provided to him during the purchase process and fully accepts the general conditions of sale.
Product availability and order processing
The e-commerce system adopted on the www.puerteasociety.com website is designed to guarantee maximum transparency for the Customer, indicating in real time the exact sta-tus of availability of the Products in stock and the relative delivery times.
However, we must take into account the fact that several users may place orders for the same article(s) at the same time and consequently vary the quantity of products in our warehouse. In this case, we will inform the customer of any problems with product avail-ability by e-mail. The customer is then free to decide whether or not to cancel the order. In the event of cancellation, you will be immediately reimbursed the amount paid.
www.puerteasociety.com reserves the right to dispatch even only partial orders received according to the availability of products in stock.
Please also note that the images and information in the product sheets reflect the products as closely as possible. However, sometimes they may not fully correspond to the actual characteristics of the article, despite the utmost care and attention we pay to this aspect.
Orders
Orders are accepted only and exclusively via the Internet (on-line). The customer who sends the order directly from the site will receive, at the end of the procedure, a communication by electronic mail (e-mail) confirming the order, containing the order number, information on the products purchased, detailed indication of the price, shipping costs, applicable taxes and means of payment and information on the right of withdrawal. If, after the order has been sent, the order number does not appear, the proposal shall be deemed not to have been accepted, to all legal effects, even if for accounting, administrative or product shortage reasons. Nell’ipotesi che, dopo l’invio dell’ordine, non compaia il numero d’ordine, la proposta s’intenderà come non accettata, ad ogni effetto di legge, anche se per motivi contabili, amministrativi o per carenza di prodotto.
An order can only be cancelled if the order has not yet been processed and the goods have not yet been dispatched, by written notice to be sent by e-mail to hello@puerteasociety.com.
For orders that have already been processed, the customer must exercise the Right of Withdrawal.
Sales prices
All sales prices displayed on the www.puerteasociety.com website are indicated in euros. They are subject to change without notice.
For certain products, subject to price promotions, the seller reserves the right to accept orders by reducing the quantity, subject to prior notice and acceptance by the customer, failing which the order shall be deemed cancelled.
The goods shall only be dispatched once the order has been accepted and the amount due has been credited.
In the event of cancellation of the order, either by the customer or in the event of non-acceptance of the order by the vendor for reasons not attributable to the vendor’s will, the order shall be cancelled and the amount committed shall be refunded.
Transaction security is guaranteed by a data encryption system (SSL) and by direct, protected and certified connections.
SHIPMENT AND RETURNS
Shipping costs, except for any promotions or exceeding a purchase threshold established by the seller, are charged to the customer, calculated at the time of checkout. In the event of price discrepancies, following the Customer’s order, these will be immediately communicated to the Customer by e-mail who, without any penalty, may withdraw from the purchase commitment made.
For non-EU countries, tariffs and customs charges may be applied as established by individual countries and will be borne by the customer.

RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL
Online customers acting as consumers have the right to withdraw from the contract, as provided for in Articles 64 to 67 of Legislative Decree no. 206/2005, the so-called Consumer Code.
It should be noted that this right is reserved only for private consumers acting for purposes unrelated to their profession. There is no right of withdrawal for legal and commercial figures who act, with reference to the purchase contract, in a professional context.
In order to exercise the right of withdrawal, you must send, within 14 calendar days of re-ceipt of the purchased product, a notice clearly stating your wish to withdraw from the purchase contract.
This communication must be sent by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt.
The User will be informed of the procedures for returning the Product.
The consumer must then, using a courier of his/her choice, ship the product (if possible in its original packaging and, in any case, always carefully packed) and everything it originally contained.
The consumer must carry out this shipment within fourteen working days from the date on which he/she sent the communication exercising the right of withdrawal.
If the withdrawal is partial (i.e. it concerns only a part of the products delivered in a single delivery), the refund of the shipping costs incurred by the consumer for the delivery of the products at the time of purchase is excluded.
The right of withdrawal shall be forfeited in full if the returned product is not intact, due to the absence, for example, of integral elements of the product or because the product has been damaged for reasons other than transport from the Seller to the consumer, not pre-viously reported.
Products sent without prior written notice of withdrawal will not be accepted.
The right of withdrawal is excluded in relation to:
- supply of bespoken Products or clearly customised;
- supply of Products that are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly;
- supply of sealed products that are not suitable for return for hygienic or health protection reasons and have been opened after delivery;
Loose leaf teas are foodstuffs which, by their nature, are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly and are assimilated to custom-made or clearly personalised goods.
