To exercise their right of withdrawal, the Buyer may use the withdrawal form template provided in the annex and send it to contact@pensato.com.

The date considered by PENSATO SARL will be whichever occurs first.
Returned products will be inspected by our quality control team. Any loss or reduction in the value of the products due to unnecessary handling (e.g., a product returned without its original, unopened packaging) may be deducted from the refund.
The corresponding refund, including standard delivery charges (excluding additional costs resulting from expedited delivery options), will be made using the same payment method as the original transaction unless the consumer Buyer has expressly agreed to a different refund method.
Exceptions to the Right of Withdrawal
As an exception, if a food product purchased on the Website has been opened by the Buyer, the right of withdrawal does not apply for hygiene and health protection reasons (Article L.221-28, 5° of the French Consumer Code).
PAYMENT TERMS
The price is payable at the time of ordering. Payments are made by credit card via our secure payment provider, Lyra Collect, ensuring that the information transmitted is encrypted and cannot be accessed by third parties during its transfer over the network. The information is directly sent to our provider, who handles the debit authorizations. PENSATO SARL will not have access to this data at any time.
The Buyer’s account is automatically debited for the total amount of the products at the time of order placement. All invoices are available in the Buyer’s account or sent by email.
DELIVERY
The average delivery time is 2 to 5 business days for France and the EU, and 3 to 7 business days for international orders, following payment validation. Deliveries are made to the address provided at the time of the order and must fall within the agreed delivery area. The Buyer must take all necessary steps and provide all useful information to ensure proper delivery.

WARRANTY
All products supplied by PENSATO SARL come with the legal warranty provided under Articles 1641 and following of the French Civil Code. If a product sold is non-compliant, it can be returned to PENSATO SARL for replacement, exchange, or refund.
All claims, exchanges, or refund requests must be made in writing to the following address within thirty (30) days of delivery:
PENSATO SARL
2 Blvd d’Italie, 98000
Monaco, MONACO
The consumer has two (2) years from the delivery date to invoke the legal warranty of conformity in the event of a defect. During this period, the consumer must only prove the existence of the defect and not the date it appeared.
If the sales contract involves the supply of digital content or services for a period exceeding two years, the legal warranty applies throughout the supply period. During this time, the consumer must only prove the existence of the defect in the digital content or service, not the date it appeared.
The legal warranty of conformity obliges the seller to provide all necessary updates to maintain the product's compliance.
The consumer has the right to have the product repaired or replaced within thirty days of their request, free of charge and without significant inconvenience.
If the product is repaired under the legal warranty, the initial warranty is extended by six months. If the consumer requests repair but the seller opts for replacement, the legal warranty is renewed for two years from the replacement date.
The consumer may request a price reduction or terminate the contract and receive a full refund if:
- The seller refuses to repair or replace the product.
- The repair or replacement exceeds thirty days.
- The repair or replacement causes significant inconvenience to the consumer (e.g., the consumer incurs permanent return costs or reinstallation costs).
- The defect persists despite the seller's repair attempt.
If the defect is severe enough to warrant immediate termination or price reduction, the consumer is not required to first request repair or replacement.
The consumer may not terminate the sale if the defect is minor.
Any period during which the product is immobilized for repair or replacement suspends the warranty period until the product is returned to service.
The above rights are based on Articles L. 217-1 to L. 217-32 of the French Consumer Code.
A seller who obstructs the legal warranty in bad faith may face a civil fine of up to €300,000 or 10% of their average annual turnover (Article L. 241-5 of the Consumer Code).
The consumer also benefits from the legal warranty against hidden defects under Articles 1641 to 1649 of the French Civil Code for two (2) years from the discovery of the defect. This warranty entitles the consumer to a price reduction if the product is retained or a full refund if the product is returned.
