5. Product purchase

Customers - meaning only natural persons, eligible to execute and perform binding agreements according to the applicable law or under parental (or guardian) consent, when needed, acting for purposes outside of their trade, business or profession - are eligible to carry out an Order of Products on this Site ("Order").
Customers must carefully read these Terms and Conditions before completing any Order. By placing an Order on this Site, Customers agree with these Terms and Conditions.
When placing an Order, Customers must provide all the personal information required by the Site, including but not limited to their first name, surname, birth date, email address, billing and delivery address. All such information must be true, accurate and up to date.
Customers cannot make any purchase under someone else’s identity unless strictly authorized to do so by the identity holder.

6. Order processing

Prior to completing an Order, every Customer shall:

a) Review the purchase details in the Order summary;
b) Accept explicitly these Terms and Conditions by ticking the relevant checkbox below the Order summary; and
c) Submit the Order electronically to the Site by clicking on the relevant button.

Upon receiving an Order, the Seller will immediately send an order receipt confirmation to the Customer by email ("Order receipt confirmation").
The Order receipt confirmation communicates to the Customer that the Order has been received. It does not imply acceptance of the Order by the Seller.
Customers must verify that all information concerning their Order reported in the Order receipt confirmation, including but not limited to all details concerning the Products, the delivery address and all personal information, is correct. If any piece of information in the Order is not correct or accurate, Customers must promptly inform the Seller by using the Contact us.
Customers are also encouraged to store an electronic copy of the Order receipt confirmation and to refer to the unique identifying number of the Order included in the Order receipt confirmation when contacting the Brunello Cucinelli customer service (“Customer Service”).
All Orders are subject to stock availability and acceptance by the Seller.
If only some of the Products ordered are available, the Seller will promptly contact the Customer by email to verify their interest in the fulfilment of a partial Order, of a full Order but in multiple shipments or whether they intend to cancel the Order.
An Order can be deemed as accepted, and the relevant contract for the sale of the Products between the Seller and the Customer as formed, only when the Seller dispatches the Products and submits the Order invoice to the Customer ("Order Invoice").
Until then, the Seller retains the right to refuse any Order at its sole discretion, including but not limited to the following circumstances:

• The Customer does not meet the eligibility-to-purchase requirements according to these Terms and Conditions;
• Shipment of parcels to the delivery address indicated in the Order is restricted, impossible or extremely difficult;
• The Product is no longer in stock.

The seller cannot be held liable by reason of withdrawing any Product from the Site after an Order submission or for refusing to accept any Order. It may also unintentionally happen that the Site shows available Products that are actually unavailable at that moment.
The Seller intends to notify Users of any refusal of Order in a prompt manner.

7. Payments

Customers can make payments ("Payments") of the Purchase price by using all major credit and debit cards (collectively, "Payment methods").
When the Order is accepted, the Seller will debit the Purchase price to the Customer via the selected Payment method.
However, prior security checks to prevent insolvency or fraud may take place, or a deposit may be held to verify that the credit, debit card or payment system used by the Customer holds sufficient funds for the Payment.
The Seller does not directly process any credit/debit card details or other financial information of the Customer and uses a primary payment gateway ("Payment gateway") to authorize any Payment.
The Payment gateway protects the credit/debit card details by encrypting sensitive information to ensure that such information is passed securely between the Customer and this Site, on one side, and between this Site and the payment processor, on the other side. However, the Seller cannot be held liable for any error, negligence or wrongdoing referable to how the Payment gateway has managed the financial transaction linked to the purchase of the Products on this Site.
This Site also uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to guarantee a higher standard of safety on any purchase of Products.

8. Shipping and delivery

Orders are delivered by courier service to the following countries.
Customers can track the shipping progress of their Orders by using the unique tracking reference number supplied to the Customer when shipment is confirmed by e-mail.
Unless specifically stated otherwise, all shipping charges on an Order will be debited in full to the Customer ("Shipping charges"). The Shipping charge amount will first be calculated and shown in the Order summary at checkout.
The Seller is strongly committed to completing each Order in the most efficient and seamless manner. Nonetheless, any estimated delivery time indicated in the Order summary should be used as a guideline only. The estimated delivery time starts from the date of dispatch.
The Seller cannot be held liable for any delay in delivery that is not due to its negligence, including but not limited to force majeure, customs clearance processes, strikes, natural disasters, any other fact pertaining to the supply of courier services or any other circumstance outside of the control of the Seller.
Customers should plan to be available to receive the Products without any undue delay.
The courier carries out multiple delivery attempts, excluding weekends and holidays. If the final delivery attempt has been made without success, because the courier was unable to leave the package, the courier will return the package to the Seller. In this case, Customers are invited to contact the Seller immediately for further instructions by the Contact us section.
Selecting a different country for delivery, the prices, general terms, and availability of the items may change. For further information, see the shipping section.

9. Pricing

All prices of Products, shipping charges and other costs (collectively, the "Purchase price") published on the Site are expressed in the currency shown during the checkout process.
The full Purchase price will be repeatedly shown in the Order summary at checkout, in the Order receipt confirmation and in the Order Invoice after purchase.
In the event of any error or mistake in the Product prices published on this Site, the Seller retains the right to modify the relevant Purchase prices at any time. Incorrect prices will not be binding for the Seller or the Customer in any case, even after the Customer has received an Order receipt confirmation.
The Seller is under no obligation to accept or execute any Order for Products published at an incorrect price and reserves the right to refuse or cancel the Order before the Customer has received the Order Invoice.
For deliveries to countries outside the European Union, customs duties, sales taxes and/or import VAT may be due (collectively, “Local charges and taxes”).
When Orders are shipped to these countries, all Local charges and taxes will be included in the Purchase price:

When Orders are shipped to any other countries where shipping is available, the Product prices displayed will be exclusive of all relevant Local charges and taxes. In this case, payment of all Local charges and taxes levied by destination countries must be carried out separately by the Customer when receiving the Order. Customers are invited to inquire with the local customs offices or advisors whether any Local charges and taxes will be applied to their Order.

10. Vouchers and discounts

Customers are kindly asked to dispatch the Products for return from the same country where the Products were first delivered. If this is not possible, they should first contact the Seller by Contact Us section, to verify the most suitable alternative solution to return the Products.
The Seller may refuse to accept any further Orders from a Customer after multiple returns on previous purchases by the same Customer.
