Acceptance of the General Conditions of Sale and Closing
By agreeing to these Terms and Conditions You understand that the specification, description, and price of the goods displayed on the Site are subject to change, but any such changes will not affect orders which have already been placed by You. It is understood that colours and sizes of the products may differ on account of the differences in screens and systems used by customers for accessing the Site; please refer to the product specifications for measurements of the products.
Before placing an order on the order form presented on the Site You shall ensure, by reading the information displayed on the screen, that no input errors are present. You may correct all the data inputted into the order form up until the time that You click the button finalising the order.
Your ordering of goods from the Site constitutes an offer to buy such goods at the price displayed on the Site at that particular time, in conformity with the specification and description contained in the relevant product information sheet.
The agreement executed (entirely by way of electronic communications) between You and Deco Manufacturing shall be deemed binding upon acceptance of the order, including partial acceptance, by Deco Manufacturing. If the order is not accepted by Deco Manufacturing, Deco Manufacturing shall immediately inform You thereof.
After placing an order through the Site, Deco Manufacturing will process Your order and subsequently send you an email acknowledging that we have received your request to place an order. This email of acknowledgement constitutes confirmation and acceptance of your order.
All orders are subject to availability and acceptance by Us. Whenever We are not able to accept Your order, such as whenever the item requested is out of stock or when there is a problem with your payment method, Deco Manufacturing reserves the right to cancel any online order made by You. In such cases Deco Manufacturing shall inform You of the above by email and offer alternative items of a similar specification and description at the price indicated in the same email, also stating the period for which such offer at the price shall remain valid.
By placing an order in accordance with the envisaged modalities, and with the order form made available on the Site (hereinafter, the “Order”), You hereby declare that You have read and understood all of the indications given during the purchase procedure, and that You accept, in full, these General Conditions of Sale and the other Terms of Conditions (hereinafter, the “Conditions”).
These Conditions may be printed or stored on permanent storage devices, in accordance with the applicable legislation currently in force. By placing an Order with Us and/or otherwise using any of Our services, You hereby agree that any document We may need to send You (for example, any Order acceptance by Us) should be readily accessible by You so as to be useable for subsequent reference and that therefore, We may send You any such document in electronic form.
The exclusive language used on the Site, and hence the language in which the Order must be made is the English or German language.
Price and Terms of Payment
The prices indicated on the Site are inclusive of local sales taxes and VAT, when applicable. In addition, additional costs and fees may apply, such as local import taxes depending on your shipping location. Where possible, these additional costs will be clearly indicated on the Site and will be made available to you before placing Your Order. Please refer to Clause 3 for information regarding delivery costs or fees.
Payment of the product prices and relevant costs for delivery (and shipping, if any) must be made by using one of the procedures indicated on the order form such as Credit or Debit Card or other specific payment procedures as indicated within the Site on a case-by-case basis.

Such details will not be used by Us except for performing the procedure relevant to Your purchase or issuing refunds in the case of returns in compliance with the exercise of Your return right or for reporting cases of fraud to the police.
Under no circumstances and at no stage of the payment process, will the details of the credit card of the purchaser be disclosed to Deco Manufacturing because such details will be directly sent, in a secure manner, to the website of the financial institution in charge of the transaction. Since no such data will be stored in Deco Manufacturing’s systems, Deco Manufacturing will not, to the extent permitted by law, be liable for fraudulent and unlawful uses, if any, made by third parties of the purchaser’s credit card during the payment procedure, unless this occurs through Our gross negligence.
The price for the purchase of products and the corresponding costs for delivery (and shipping, if any), as indicated in the order form or as otherwise indicated on the Site, will be charged to Your current account only when the purchased products are actually shipped. In case of pre-orders, please see the specific procedure as may be communicated to You at the appropriate juncture.
