The right of withdrawal applies only to natural persons - consumers, who act for purposes that can be considered unrelated to their commercial activity. The Professional Customer cannot, in any case, take advantage of any right of withdrawal.
Method of withdrawal: The Customer has the right to withdraw from the stipulated contract, without any penalty and without specifying the reason, within fourteen (14) days of receipt of the products. The withdrawal must be expressed by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt to be sent to the following address: Marika De Paola Srl Via Cesare Battisti 53 cap 41121 Modena

Once the communication has been received, the Seller's Customer Service will forward instructions on how to return the goods to the Customer. The right of withdrawal is subject to the following conditions:
The law applies to the product purchased in its entirety; it is not possible to exercise the withdrawal only on part of the purchased product.
By law, the shipping costs relating to the return of the goods are charged to the customer.
If, the Customer who has made a return on an order with free transport (since at the moment there was a promotion in progress: zero transport costs), with the return the Buyer will be charged for the transport costs previously paid, reversing them from the amount to be reimbursed.
The shipment, until the certificate of receipt in our warehouse, is under the complete responsibility of the Customer.

- The lack of the external packaging and/or wrapping containing the purchased product as most of them are fragile products;
- Damage to the product for reasons other than its transport. In the event of forfeiture of the right of withdrawal, the Seller will return the purchased goods to the sender, charging the shipping costs to the sender.
