The contract for the purchase of Products and for the supply is concluded directly between the User and the event organiser the user places the Order (hereinafter the "ORGANISER") via the FOODJA service and the applications connected to it, and INNOVATION GROUP will conclude the sale of the Products on behalf of the Organiser. Under no circumstances shall INNOVATION GROUP be obliged to promote the conclusion of contracts between the Organiser and the User.

CONDITIONS OF USE OF FOODJA

Access to the website: Access to the website https://www.foodja.it/ or certain applications for the Foodja service is possible also without placing or having placed an Order or without registering one’s own data.
Acceptance of the General Conditions: Use of the foodja Service, via the website, app or any other physical or digital application implies acceptance of these General Conditions without reservation. Users who do not accept these General Conditions are obliged not to use the services offered by Innovation Group and not to order products through foodja.
Amendments to the General Conditions: INNOVATION GROUP is entitled to amend these General Conditions at its sole and unquestionable discretion at any time, without any obligation to notify Users individually, even if they are registered. Therefore the User is obliged to periodically check the General Conditions in force at the time the product order is placed since the version published on the website https://www.foodja.it/ on that date will apply to Users in relation to the order placed. Users using foodja are bound by the rules in force at the time they place an Order.
Responsibility: the satisfaction of the requirements, of all kinds, for access to the website www.foodja.it and the use of foodja is the exclusive responsibility of the User. Users are obliged to ensure that all those who have access to foodja via their account and/or their Internet connection and/or their IP address are aware of and accept these General Conditions without reservation.
Should Innovation Group, through foodja (i.e. its website, the mobile app, and any other application) or other websites or mobile apps, provide links to third-party websites, the User accepts and declares that Innovation Group is not responsible for any malfunctioning or other detrimental acts that may be caused to the User by visiting these third party websites. Innovation Group will not provide links that are known to be harmful or dangerous to the User, but cannot exclude the possibility that such links have been hacked or tampered with, and hereby disclaims any responsibility for visiting such domains.

USER REQUIREMENTS

Legal capacity and age: By placing an Order through foodja, the User warrants that they have the capacity to act and to enter into legally binding contracts with the Organisers, that they are at least 18 years of age, and that they meet the legal requirements necessary to place an Order for certain Products (i.e. alcoholic beverages, tobacco products, etc.) in accordance with Article 3.3 below.
If the User has a specific food allergy or intolerance, they confirm and undertake to contact the Organiser directly to verify that the food is suitable for their needs, before placing the order directly with the Organiser via Foodja.

3.3 Alcoholic beverages and tobacco products: The User is aware that it is an offence for any person under the age of 18 to purchase, or attempt to purchase, alcoholic beverages, as well as to purchase or attempt to purchase, tobacco or other smoking-related products for themselves or on behalf of a person under the age of 18. If the User's Order includes any alcoholic beverages, cigarettes, or other smoking-related products, the User will be required to provide proof of their age when collecting the Order at the dispensing points provided by the Organiser. If the User is unable to provide proof of being 18 years of age or older at the Organiser's discretion, or where the Organiser reasonably believes that the alcoholic beverages, cigarettes, or other smoking-related products ordered by the User were purchased by the User on behalf of a person under the age of 18, the Organiser reserves the right not to complete the delivery of the alcoholic beverages, cigarettes or other smoking-related products to the User.

SERVICE DELIVERY METHOD

Choice of products in the Order: the User, via the foodja applications, whether digital or physical (the latter installed at the Event venue), may choose from the proposed menu the products they wish to purchase. After having made this selection and having completed the Order with the information requested, which varies according to the nature and type of the product they intend to purchase, the User must complete the Order by selecting the confirmation button (i.e: “pay now” or “proceed to payment” or similar button). The correctness of the information entered and the products selected are the sole responsibility of the User, who must necessarily correct any errors before clicking on the confirmation button or selecting it since, following confirmation, the User will have concluded a contract of sale with the Organiser and it will no longer be possible to correct any errors or withdraw from the Order (without prejudice to paragraph 4.2 below).
Modification of or withdrawal from the Order: Pursuant to Article 59 of the Consumer Code, the right of withdrawal is excluded in relation to the purchase of products manufactured to order and/or prone to rapid deterioration. Once the Order has been placed, the User will have concluded, pursuant to these General Conditions, a contract for the sale of rapidly perishable products and, therefore, will not be able to change or withdraw from the Order, with the consequent loss of the right to any refund. For this purpose, please refer to Article 5. for further information on the procedure applicable to refusing to execute Orders and the reimbursement of payment.
Authorization for payment: If any payment is not authorised, the Order shall not be processed or sent to the Organiser, who shall therefore not be obliged to process it. Processing the Order: upon completion of the Order, Innovation Group will issue the User with a QR Code authorising them to collect the purchased products at the dispensing points located at the event venue by the Organiser. The proper execution of the Order is the sole responsibility of the Organiser. Innovation Group strongly encourages the latter to execute all Orders and to promptly notify the User (usually by email or text message) of any refusal to execute Orders or any closure of product supply points as soon as reasonably possible. However, Innovation Group does not exclude the possibility that, for reasons beyond its control, the Organiser may not be able to correctly process the Order received. In these cases, any payment already made in connection with the Order shall be returned to the User in accordance with Article 5.5 below.
Delivery of the Order: The delivery time of the Order may vary depending on the flow of Users present at the event at which the User placed the Order. However, the Organiser undertakes to ensure the processing of the request received within a reasonable time frame. It is specified that once the Event has ended and/or once the Organiser, in its sole discretion, decides to terminate the supply of food and beverages at the Event, the Order may no longer be fulfilled, with the User having the right to a refund of the amounts paid in accordance with Article 5.5 below.

PRICE AND PAYMENT

VAT and additional costs: The prices of the products are those indicated on foodja. Prices include VAT and service fees, but may not include any costs charged by the Organiser, including, but not limited to, any delivery charges. These will be added to the total amount due, where applicable. Delivery charges applied to the Order may vary depending on a number of factors and according to the Organiser's assessment. The same, if any, will always be clearly indicated to the User prior to the order confirmation procedure.
Payment methods: Payment of the Order may be made by credit/debit card or other electronic payment instrument via foodja or in cash at the local cash desks set up by the Organiser at the Event venue when the ordered products are delivered to the User or collected.
Credit card payments: when paying by credit/debit card or other electronic payment method, there may be delays in processing payments and transactions. Some payments, therefore, may take up to sixty (60) days to be debited from the user's current account or credit or debit card.

5.4 Collection by Innovation Group: in the event of payment by credit or debit card or another electronic payment instrument, Innovation Group is expressly authorised by the Organiser, by virtue of the contract, to collect the payment for the orders on its behalf. The payment in favour of Innovation Group shall have a releasing effect on the User.

5.5. Non-execution or cancellation of the Order: Once the payment of the Order has been made by Credit Card, the sum is credited to Innovation Group according to standard banking terms. If the execution of the Order is subsequently refused by the Organiser (as described in Article 4.4 above) or if the Order is cancelled for any other reason, the bank or company that issued the card and/or handled the payment does not transfer the funds relating to the Order to Innovation Group and instead proceeds to make these sums available again in the user’s account. This could take up to 10 working days (or more, depending on the bank or card company). The User acknowledges and accepts that neither Innovation Group nor the relevant Organiser shall be liable to the User for any delay due to the aforementioned period in which the bank or card issuer makes the funds available to the User again. Users are invited to contact their bank or credit card company for more information on this matter.

ASSISTANCE

6.1 General Provisions: Innovation Group does not offer Customer Service directly accessible by the User. Any complaint or problem relating to an Order, the method of payment or, more generally, the Service shall be brought to the attention of the Organiser or the Organiser's staff, in the manner indicated by the Organiser in its sole discretion. Innovation Group shall in no way be held liable if the assistance service offered by the Organiser is inefficient or does not meet the User's expectations.

ACCESS TO FOODJA SERVICES

Suspension of Service: Access to foodja may be temporarily suspended at any time, even without notice, at the sole discretion of Innovation Group.
Withdrawal: The User may withdraw from these General Conditions with two weeks' notice (to be communicated by e-mail to: amministrazione@i-group.it). In case of withdrawal, Innovation Group will delete the user's account, subject to legal obligations. Withdrawal shall not give rise to any obligation on the part of the Innovation Group or the User.
