C) Returns & Right of Withdrawal (General)

Exceptions: The right of withdrawal does not apply in cases such as:

products that deteriorate or expire quickly,

sealed products that are not suitable for return for health/hygiene reasons if they are unsealed after delivery.
Due to the nature of olive oil as a perishable product:

Returns are accepted only if the packaging (bottle/container) is intact, sealed, and the security tape has not been tampered with.
-
Products that have been opened or whose packaging has been damaged are not returned for reasons of food hygiene and safety.

After inspection, we will proceed with a refund or other solution, depending on the case and applicable terms.
