The following subjects may place orders through the Site: (i) customers who qualify as “consumers”, meaning persons who purchase one or more Products for purposes not related to their own commercial, entrepreneurial, handicraft or professional activity; (ii) customers who do not fall within the previous category and therefore qualify as “non-consumers”.

The applicability of the 1980 Vienna Convention on the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.
