10. LIABILITY FOR DEFECTS, PROOF OF DAMAGE, AND COMPENSATORY DAMAGES: THE SUPPLIER’S OBLIGATIONS.
10.1 Pursuant to Articles 114 et seq of the Italian Consumer Code, the Supplier is liable for damage caused by defects in the goods sold/hired if they fail to inform the injured party, within three months of the request, of the identity and address of the manufacturer or the person who supplied them with the goods. IGEA S.p.A. is the manufacturer and supplier of the Equipment for purchase/hire.
10.2 The above request by the injured party must be made in writing and must indicate the equipment that caused the damage and the place and date of purchase/hire. It must also contain an offer to see the equipment.
10.3 IGEA S.p.A. cannot be held liable for any consequences deriving from a defective product if the defect is due to the product’s conformity to a mandatory legal norm or to a binding measure, or if the state of scientific and technical knowledge at the time at which the manufacturer put the product into circulation did not yet allow the product to be considered defective.
10.4 No compensation will be due if the injured party was aware of the defect in the product and the danger resulting therefrom and nevertheless voluntarily exposed themselves to it.
10.5 In any event, the injured part must prove the defect, the damage, and the causal connection between the defect and the damage.
10.6 The damage to property referred to in Article 123 of the Italian Consumer Code may, however, only be subject to compensation to the extent that it exceeds the sum of three hundred and eighty-seven euros (€ 387.00).

The risk is, however, transferred to the Buyer/Hirer at the time of delivery to the carrier if the Buyer/Hirer has entrusted the carrier with transporting the goods and the carrier chosen has not been proposed by IGEA S.p.A., without prejudice to the rights of the Buyer/Hirer against the carrier.

11. LEGAL WARRANTIES

11.1 Legal guarantee of conformity for Consumer Customers: 

11.1.1 IGEA is liable vis-à-vis Consumers for any and all conformity defects that manifest within the term of 2 (two) years from delivery of the Equipment (in the event of purchase of the same). For the purposes of this Contract, the Equipment will be assumed to comply with the Contract if the following subjective and objective requirements, as applicable, coexist: 

(a) it is of the description, type, quantity and quality, and possesses the functionality, compatibility, interoperability and other features, as required by the Contract; 

(b) it is fit for any particular purpose for which the Consumer requires it and which the Consumer made known to the Supplier at the latest at the time of the conclusion of the Contract, and in respect of which the Supplier has given acceptance; 

(c) it has been delivered with all accessories and instructions, including on installation, as stipulated by the Contract; 

(d) it is fit for the purposes for which goods of the same type would normally be used, taking into account, where applicable, any existing Union and national law, technical standards or, in the absence of such technical standards, applicable sector-specific industry codes of conduct; 

(e) it is of the quality and corresponds to the description of a sample or model that the Supplier made available to the Consumer before the conclusion of the Contract; 

(f) it has been delivered along with such accessories, including packaging, installation instructions or other instructions, as the Consumer may reasonably expect to receive; and 

(g) it is of the quantity and possesses the qualities and other features, including in relation to durability, functionality, compatibility and security normal for goods of the same type and which the Consumer may reasonably expect given the nature of the Goods and taking into account any public statement made by or on behalf of the Supplier, or other persons in previous links of the chain of transactions, including the Manufacturer, particularly in advertising or on labelling. 

There shall be no lack of conformity if, at the time of the conclusion of the Contract, the Consumer was specifically informed by the Supplier that a particular characteristic of the Equipment was deviating from the objective requirements for conformity laid down in items (d) to (g) above and the Consumer expressly accepted that deviation when concluding the Contract.

11.1.2 The Buyer shall forfeit all rights if they do not report the lack of conformity to the Supplier within 26 (twenty-six) months of delivery of the Goods, unless the Supplier has concealed the conformity defect. In any case, unless there is proof to the contrary, it is presumed that any lack of conformity which becomes apparent within 1 (one) year of delivery of the Goods already existed on that date, unless such a presumption is incompatible with the nature of the Goods or the nature of the lack of conformity.

11.1.3 In the event of lack of conformity, the Buyer may request, free of charge, under the terms and conditions indicated below, the repair or replacement of the Equipment purchased, a reduction in the purchase price or termination of the Contract, unless the request is objectively impossible to meet or is excessively onerous for the Supplier. The assessment of the excessive costs for the Supplier, as compared with an alternative remedy, must be carried out taking into account, without limitation, the value of the Goods in the absence of the defect, the extent of the conformity defect, and the possibility that the alternative remedy may be carried out without significant inconvenience to the Consumer. The Buyer may not terminate the Contract if the lack of conformity is only minor. Without prejudice to any applicable provisions of law, the Buyer shall have the right to withhold payment of any outstanding part of the price or a part thereof until the Supplier has fulfilled its obligations under this Section 11.1. It remains understood that the Buyer shall not be liable to pay for normal use made of the replaced Goods during the period prior to their replacement.

11.1.4 The Buyer’s request for the repair of replacement of the Equipment pursuant to Section 11.1.3 above must be made in writing, by registered mail with recorded delivery to the relevant address indicated in Section 20.1 or by certified e-mail (PEC) to the address igeamedical.com@pec.it to IGEA, which will indicate its willingness to fulfil the request, or the reasons that prevent it from doing so, within 7 (seven) working days of receipt of the same. In the same communication, if the Supplier has accepted the Buyer’s request, it shall indicate the method of shipment or return of the Equipment as well as the deadline for the return or replacement of the defective Goods. 

11.1.5 If the Supplier has not completed repair or replacement or has refused to bring the Goods into conformity, or if a lack of conformity appears despite the Supplier having attempted to bring the Goods into conformity, or if the lack of conformity is of such a serious nature as to justify an immediate price reduction or termination of the Contract, or the Supplier has declared, or it is clear from the circumstances, that the Supplier will not bring the Goods into conformity within a reasonable time, or without significant inconvenience for the Consumer, the Buyer may request a reduction of the price or termination of the Contract. The Buyer must in this case send their request to the Supplier, who will indicate its willingness to fulfil it, or the reasons that prevent it from doing so, within 7 (seven) working days of receipt of the same. In the same communication, if IGEA has accepted the Buyer’s request, it shall indicate the proposed price reduction or the methods for returning the defective Goods. In such cases, IGEA shall credit back the sums paid by the Buyer via the methods used at the time of purchase. In the event of Equipment replacement or repair, the terms of the product conformity guarantee for the replaced or repaired Product are the same as for the original Product. The total two-year duration of the legal conformity guarantee will thus start from the delivery of the original Product. In order to benefit from the legal conformity guarantee under this Section 11.1, it is recommended to show the relevant purchase document.

11.2 Legal guarantee for the non-Consumer Customers (Professionals): 

11.2.1 Professionals and Customers who are not Consumers, under penalty of forfeiture, shall report to IGEA any conformity defect found in the purchased Product within 8 (eight) days from the discovery thereof. The above warranty is valid for a maximum period of 12 (twelve) months from delivery of the Product. Beyond this term, IGEA shall not be liable for conformity defects discovered by non-Consumer Customers. In order to benefit from the guarantee under this Section 11.2, it is recommended to show the relevant purchase document. 

11.3 The legal guarantee of conformity under this Section 11 will be void in any of the following cases: 

(a) the Equipment has not been used in accordance with the specific instructions provided by the Manufacturer; 

(b) the Equipment has been damaged due to negligence or willful misconduct of the Customer; or,

(c) any changes, modifications or repairs to the Equipement have been performed in any way by unauthorized personnel. 

11.4 The legal guarantee of conformity under this Section 11 does not include labour costs and costs of repairing or replacing those components necessary for any routine maintenance sessions, which allow the proper functioning of the Equipment. 

IGEA grants a warranty for coil and batteries, when applicable, for a maximum period of 180 (one hundred eighty) days from delivery of the Equipment.

The date of delivery to the post office or forwarding agent will be binding between the parties.

14.1 The obligations under Section 12.1 assumed by the Buyer/Hirer, as well as representation of successful completion of the payment made by the Buyer/Hirer via the means under Sections 5.1 and 5.2, and also the exact fulfillment of the obligations assumed by the Supplier under Section 6, are of an essential nature. By express agreement, the non-fulfillment of only one of said obligations, unless caused by unforeseeable circumstances or force majeure, will entail the legal termination of the contract pursuant to Article 1456 of the Italian Civil Code, without the need for a legal judgment.

15. PROTECTION OF CONFIDENTIALITY AND PROCESSING OF THE BUYER/HIRER’S DATA
