2.1 In order to complete a Contract with the Seller, the Customer must follow the instructions, which will be indicated online in the various stages leading up to the conclusion of the Contract, including: (i) selecting and including the desired Products in the shopping basket, (ii) filling in the order form provided for this purpose with the personal data required for the processing of the order (name, address, e-mail, telephone number, delivery/billing address), (iii) selecting the delivery method or collection in the shop, and (iv) selecting the means of payment among those available.

2.2 Before placing the order, the Customer will be able to view a summary containing the following information: (i) essential information and price of each Product selected, (ii) total price of the order (including applicable taxes and charges), (iii) means of payment selected, (iv) delivery method chosen, (v) estimated delivery date (vi) transport costs if applicable (including any additional costs that the Customer is required to incur for having opted for a specific method of shipment and delivery different and/or faster than that defined by the Seller as "standard"), (vii) the conditions and procedures for exercising the right of withdrawal, as well as the procedures for any possible return of the Products purchased, (viii) the personal data provided for the purpose of processing the order, and (ix) the contacts of the Seller and of Client Care, if necessary.

2.3 The placement of the order by the Customer constitutes a binding offer to purchase the Products selected from the Seller, subject to these General T&C, without prejudice to the Customer's right of withdrawal referred to in Article 7 below, as well as an obligation for the Customer to pay the price of the Products ordered.
