General Conditions of Sale

These General Conditions of Sale regulate the sales of the products listed on the site, starting with the registration of the order. They are applied to all sales made through Internet, mail and e-mail. If these conditions change for a specific selling method, these changes will be mentioned in detail. The purchase of all products on the site is governed by these General Conditions of Sale which comply with Legislative Decree 185/1999 on distance contracts.

The fact that the customer accepts the general conditions of sale before confirming his order on the site, automatically entails reading and accepting the above. These Conditions are applied excluding all the other clauses, except for all the special agreements complied in writing and signed by both parties. Upon request, these regulations can be sent by e-mail, fax or mail.

The site undertakes to show at its best the essential features of products. Please note that since these are customized products produced ad hoc following the order, the pictures of the products published on the site are purely indicative. Flexie realizes products on the basis of the print files sent by the customer. The order must be considered not completed until receipt of payment and, if applicable, the loading of the print file by the user. The aforementioned files must be sent in the formats indicated in the guidelines, and must correspond to the requirements listed therein. It can’t be guaranteed an optimal print of the files that do no have the required features. Therefore the Customer is required to carefully check the files before send them, as Flexie does not perform spelling checks, the positioning of the elements, checks for errors, omissions or defects in the data transmitted by the customer and printed. Flexie will not verify the contents except in relation to the technical specifications and graphic compatibility with the requested specifications. The Customer assumes full responsibility for any shortcomings and errors resulting from the production of the assignment, on the basis of a file not suitable for printing due to the Customer’s fault to comply with the printing requirements indicated in the guide lines. If files do not meet the requirements set out in Flexie guidelines, the order will be markked as waiting to receive correct files. Regarding this, Flexie Graphic Department, in charge of manually reviewing each design provided by the Customer, will get in touch with the latter if issues that could affect printing quality are remarked. Following the description of the specific technical issue, the Customer can purchase the Advanced file verification Service or the Basic graphic design service on the basis of the entity of the issue, or they will have to autonomously amend and optimise files to start the order production. If the Customer chooses to proceed with the order production using print files that are not compliant to standards, Flexie will not be held accountable in any way of possible imperfections or deviations. When an order is placed, the user guarantees that he has all the authorizations and rights necessary for the use, transmission and disclosure of the data and images sent to Flexie, for the purpose of subsequent printing, with specific reference the content of the texts and images transmitted.
