Without prejudice to the additional terms provided for by Legislative Decree No. 206/2005 and subsequent amendments, the Products sold through the Site are covered by the legal warranty of conformity provided for by applicable law, in particular for 24 (twenty-four) months following the delivery of the Products.
Any conformity defect must be reported by the User, under penalty of forfeiture of the warranty, within 2 (two) months from the date it was discovered.
The warranty does not cover any malfunctions caused by accidental events and/or by the use of the Products not in accordance with the technical documentation of the Product itself. To benefit from the legal warranty, the User must provide proof of purchase and delivery of the Product.
In the case of a duly reported conformity defect within the specified time, the User has the right to request free repair or replacement of the Product, unless the requested remedy is objectively impossible or excessively burdensome compared to the alternative. The request can be sent to MM Operations through the form available at shop.officinegullo.com/en/contacts.
A requested remedy is considered “excessively burdensome” if it imposes unreasonable costs on MM Operations compared to the alternative remedies available, taking into account (a) the value the Product would have if there were no conformity defect; (b) the extent of the conformity defect; (c) the possibility of obtaining the alternative remedy without significant inconvenience to the User.
