Article 9 – Applicable Law and Jurisdiction

These Site Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Italy.

Without prejudice to the case in which the regulations provided for by the Consumer Code are applicable, any disputes relating to the interpretation and application or breach of these Site Terms, including the documents referred to herein and the other legal notices published on the Site and, in general, the relations between the Company and the Users shall be deferred to the Court of Turin.

9.1 Out-of-court conciliation

Pursuant to Article 141-sexies, paragraph 3 of Legislative Decree no. 206 of 6 September 2005 (“Consumer Code”), the Company informs the User who qualifies as a consumer pursuant to Article 3, paragraph 1, lett. a) of the Consumer Code, that in the event that he/she has submitted a complaint directly to the Company, as a result of which it has nevertheless not been possible to resolve the dispute thus arising, the Company will provide information regarding the Alternative Dispute Resolution (“ADR”) body or bodies for the out-of-court settlement of disputes relating to these Site Terms (so-called ADR bodies, as indicated in articles 141-bis et seq. of the Consumer Code).

The Company also informs the User who qualifies as a consumer pursuant to Article 3, paragraph 1, letter a) of the Consumer Code that a European platform for the online resolution of consumer disputes has been established (the so-called “ODR” or “Online Dispute Resolution” platform). The ODR online platform can be consulted at https://ec.europa.eu/odr/; through the ODR platform the consumer User can consult the list of ADR entities, find the link to the site of each of them and initiate an online dispute resolution procedure for the dispute in which he/she is involved. This is without prejudice, in any case, to the possibility, where the conditions are met, to initiate an out-of-court settlement of disputes concerning consumer contracts through recourse to the procedures set out in Part V, Title II-bis of the Consumer Code. The User residing in a member state of the European Union other than Italy, may also have access, for any dispute relating to the application, execution and interpretation of these Site Terms, to the European procedure established for small claims, by Council Regulation (EC) No. 861/2007 of 11 July 2007, provided that the value of the dispute does not exceed, excluding interest, fees and expenses, Euro 5,000.00.

Any disputes connected with and related to the use of the Site and the Services contemplated therein, which are not susceptible to settlement through ADR entities, are reserved to the Italian jurisdiction and to the mandatory and exclusive territorial competence of the Court of Turin.
