Offer validity may be subject to quantity or time limitations, after which it may no longer be available. Offer validity date and quantities are listed on the website to inform User about them. Vino.com^™ may change the duration or quantity of an offer at any time and at its discretion, always making sure to follow up on orders placed when a specific offer was valid. An offer may be posted several times over time, also following agreements with the Partner or products suppliers. In some cases, it can happen that a product goes out of stock after order placement. When this happens, Vino.com^™ will refund the User, if certain conditions are met. It is also possible that for some product offers, a specific product is unavailable and User will be asked to specify one or more preferences upon order: in such circumstances, the User is aware that he/she may receive a different product variant than the one selected upon order.
As stated above, in case of promotional sales or flash-deal formulas, full price indicated in the offer ("strikethrough price") and based on which Vino.com^™ discount is calculated may correspond to:

Order procedure and payment method

After being informed about offer conditions, User can proceed with check out by following the procedure on the Site.
Before checkout, a summary will be displayed showing the unit cost of the selected product and the total, in case there is more than one order for the same product or different products. The cost of any shipping, delivery or postal charges can be fixed or variable and is calculated based on products weight, number of products and/or destination address indicated by User upon order. Shipping may also be included in the sale price of some products or be free if order total goes over a set limit amount or if there is a special offer. However, the User is always informed about shipping costs before checkout and payment. Once the order has been made, the User must proceed with the payment to Vino.com^™, both in case of Direct Sales and in case of Intermediate Sales. In case of Intermediate Sales, Vino.com^™ will receive payment on behalf and on account of the Partner, remaining in effect extraneous to the relationship between the Partner and the User. Unless otherwise specified on product information page, it must be understood that products are sold directly by Vino.com^™.
Following successful payment completion, the User will receive a confirmation email containing information about order products. The email will also contain a reference to these Terms of Use. Moreover, confirmation will include the delivery and billing address. Product shipment takes place within the time frames indicated in the order confirmation. Delivery time is also displayed before checkout, in the cart summary or on product page. This information is only indicative, as it is not always possible to predict courier delays or other issues caused by third parties or force majeure events not attributable to Vino.com^™. In case of time limited offers ( flash-deals ), products could be delivered to the User after the offer has expired. If no confirmation email was received, the order cannot be considered concluded. In this case, should order amount be charged to the User, he/she will be required to promptly notify Vino.com^™, by sending an email to assistenza@vino.com, in order to allow Vino.com^™ to check what happened and possibly proceed with refund.
Accepted payment methods, unless otherwise specified or agreed with the User, are the following: credit card and prepaid cards from Visa, Mastercard, Maestro, Postepay, American Express, Discover (Diners Club International and Pulse) circuits, PayPal account, Apple Pay and bank transfer. Vino.com^™ may also offer cash on delivery cash as an alternative payment method, on all or some occasions and at its sole discretion.

In case of a bank transfer, bank details (IBAN), transfer amount and order number will be indicated upon order confirmation. Payment by bank transfer should be made within the specified date and always no later than 2 days after order confirmation. It may not be possible to guarantee order fulfillment, once the deadline has passed: in this case Vino.com^™ will refund any payment received after the deadline, without additional costs and by bank transfer.
In case of a Subscription Service, the User authorizes Vino.com^™ to periodically charge the amount on the credit or prepaid card. In this regard, the User guarantees the availability of respective payment amount.
If the User realizes that he/she has provided incorrect and/or incomplete personal information or shipping address, he/she is required to promptly notify Vino.com within order fulfillment date, by sending an email to assistenza@vino.com. In all cases, only the User is responsible for any incorrect and/or incomplete general information or shipping address, resulting in him/her losing paid amount if products are delivered to strangers.

Secure payments

Vino.com^™ cares about the security of its Users. Vino.com^™ does not process and does not store payment title data (e.g. credit card numbers), which are treated and/or kept by relevant payment service providers. There are fields to enter protected and encrypted payment data, managed directly by the payment service (Braintree, a company of the PayPal group, Inc. More information on Braintree here and on PayPal here). Only after payment transaction has taken place, the banking service provider informs Vino.com^™ about payment outcome, without disclosing any sensitive information. For this reason, Vino.com^™ is not responsible for any refusal of the credit card used for payment. Vino.com^™ cannot therefore be held responsible in any way for direct or indirect consequences of credit card use to pay for ordered products and/or services.
Navigation on Vino.com^™ is protected and encrypted with a "128/256-bit Extended Validation SSL" security certificate, issued by Symantec/DigiCert and following a precise and constant authentication process of the company's information and of the ownership of the domain. It is also possible to verify the authenticity of the certificate and its ownership by clicking on the appropriate protection section of the browser in use, generally next to the address bar, on the title of the page or on the status bar.

7
Coupons

Vino.com^™ can issue discount codes (hereinafter also "Coupon") that User will be able to use upon order. Coupons are issued in the form of an alphanumeric code and their value (€) is incontestable and determined by Vino.com^™ at its sole discretion. User can enter coupon code in the appropriate field "Coupon" upon order. In this way, the entered coupon will automatically be deducted from order total before payment, excluding shipping costs. Coupons percentage discounts are not applied to products that are currently on offer. Coupons are generally available to User for a limited period of time, after which they expire. There can be a minimum order amount for coupon use, below which coupon is not valid. Unless otherwise specified, Coupon is personal, associated to User Account and it can be used on a single order, after which it will automatically be deactivated. Coupons can not be combined. Coupons can not be sold, assigned and/or transferred to third parties unless authorized by Vino.com^™. Vino.com^™ reserves the right to cancel any previously issued Coupon, even before the deadline, without having to provide any explanation and without the right to indemnity or compensation. Vino.com^™ may also issue Coupons for Users who invite acquaintances, friends and family to view website offers and sign up on it. The site provides some functionalities to invite other people; such as "Recommend to a friend", "Send email with an offer", "Share on Facebook", "Twitter", other social networks etc. For each new guest ordering a product on offer within a certain time period, Vino.com^™ will grant User a Coupon, to be used through User Account and valid on next order. Vino.com^™ will determine coupon value from time to time at its discretion and reserves the right to eliminate Coupons issued in favor of users who make improper use of them, without any prior notice and without the right to indemnity or compensation.

Shipping and delivery

Vino.com^™ and possible Partners accept orders that can only be delivered throughout Italy, including islands, with the exception of San Marino, Vatican City, Livigno and Campione d'Italia. Shipping takes place within the time limit stated in offer conditions and, in case of time-limited offers ( flash-deals ), it could start from offer end date. Shipping takes place within the time frame specified in order confirmation. Delivery time can also be displayed before checkout, in the cart summary or on product page. This information is only an estimation, as it is not always possible to predict any courier delay. However, Vino.com^™ aims at delivering the products within 10 working days from order date, unless otherwise specified on the product sheet, and on average orders are delivered in 24/48 working hours throughout Italy, except for the islands, for which average delivery time is 48/72 working hours. In the unlikely event that products become unavailable for any reason after Vino.com receives the order, any payment received will be refunded, at no additional cost for the User. The User can be informed by email when product is shipped by Vino.com^™, both in case of Direct Sales and Intermediate Sales. In the latter case, User will be notified when Partner informs Vino.com^™ that the shipping has taken place.
User will be given the name of the courier, if available, and the tracking code of the shipment (Waybill or "Tracking"), through which it will be possible to follow shipping status. If available, this information will also be visible in the User Account.
Vino.com^™ cannot guarantee that several products ordered at the same time will be delivered together, nor that different shipments will arrive at their destination at the same time. Offers, in fact, may refer to products supplied by different Partners and/or not come from a single centralized warehouse. It is not possible to guarantee a specific delivery time or date as this depends on the courier, the destination address and the person in charge of delivery. Vino.com^™ cannot therefore be held responsible for any direct or indirect consequences of different delivery time. Order delivery is intended at street level, unless otherwise specified upon order.
When shipping bottles, Vino.com^™ uses patented packaging approved by the courier, designed to ensure product integrity. However, User will be required to check upon delivery that the packaging is intact, not damaged, or otherwise altered, not even in the sealing (adhesive tape or package holders) and that there are no leaks. Any damage to the packaging and/or to the product must be immediately contested by the User, by writing a request for a check on the delivery document and providing a reason, e.g. "holes in the packaging", "Pressed packaging", etc.). Once this document has been signed, the User will no longer be able to make any claim about delivered product status. Any issue with product integrity, match or completeness must be reported within 3 days from delivery, by writing an email to: assistenza@vino.com or to the Partner's email address indicated in the order confirmation and in the User Account.
In case product delivery takes longer than expected, User will be required to notify Vino.com^™, which will check upon shipment status or other issues with the Partner and/or directly with the courier. Following a shipping problem (package lost or destroyed during transport) Vino.com^™ will send the product again, in case of Direct Sales, or request a new shipping, in case of Direct Sales with drop shipping or Intermediary Sales, if the product is available at the warehouse or if the Partner has it in stock, with no extra costs for the User. This means it will be refunded total order amount in case of Direct Sale or let the Partner proceed with the refund (directly or through Vino.com^™), in case of Intermediate Sales.

Product compliance guarantee

Vino.com^™ works diligently and in good faith in selecting suppliers and Partners, making sure they can supply product quantities as described in the sale offers and with specific characteristics, being understood that Vino.com^™ can not be held responsible for damages to persons caused by possible violations on the producers side. However, Vino.com^™ can not guarantee information completeness for the supplier or partner, or a perfect match between what is described in the product sheet or offer and the product actually delivered, as as well as a legitimate use of images, videos and distinctive signs by the Supplier or Partner. The User is also aware that images used for proposals can sometimes only be indicative of the product and do not always exactly match the product delivered. In case of Intermediate Sales, and therefore Partner supplied products, Partner will be the sole responsible for under warranty products compliance. Any complaint must be sent directly to the Partner's email address on order confirmation page and also to assistenza@vino.com. Partner will indicate verification, repair or replacement methods for the products and authorize Vino.com^™ to issue a refund in favor of the User. In case of Direct Sales, Vino.com^™ will be the direct responsible for under warranty products compliance. In case of non-compliant products, the User can contact Vino.com^™ by sending an email to: assistenza@vino.com. Vino.com^™ will provide the name of a repair center for checking and repairing products under warranty or, once the problem has been detected, it will pay for consequent repair or replacement, which means issuing a refund on User's credit card used for the initial payment or issuing a Coupon with the same value as the ordered product. However, the legal guarantee is reserved for consumers and for those who made an order on Vino.com^™ for purposes unrelated to any entrepreneurial, commercial, artisanal or professional activity they might be involved in.
