Website terms and conditions of use

These terms are published in Italian and English. In the event of any discrepancy, the Italian version prevails.

1. Subject matter and acceptance

These terms and conditions (the «Terms») govern access to and use of the ombre1.com website and the services offered on it, including the restricted area for consulting technical catalogues. Accessing and browsing the site constitutes full acceptance of these Terms. Anyone who does not wish to accept them should not use the site.

These Terms govern use of the website only. They do not govern the supply of products, which is the subject of separate contractual agreements entered into between the parties.

2. Site owner

3. No online sales

The descriptions, images and technical data sheets published on the site are illustrative and do not constitute an offer to the public within the meaning of Article 1336 of the Italian Civil Code, nor a binding contractual proposal.

Submitting the contact form, including where it concerns a request for a quotation, constitutes a mere expression of interest and creates no obligation on the owner. Any supply is conditional on an order subsequently being placed and accepted in writing by OMBRE-1 S.r.l., under the general conditions of supply applicable to the relationship.

4. Intellectual property

All content on the site, including without limitation text, photographs, renderings, technical drawings, diagrams, video, graphics, interface, source code, databases, catalogues and technical documentation, is the exclusive property of OMBRE-1 S.r.l. or of third parties who have licensed its use, and is protected by Italian Law No. 633 of 22 April 1941 on copyright, by the Industrial Property Code (Legislative Decree 30/2005) and by applicable international conventions.

The OMBRE1 trade mark, its logotype and every other distinctive sign appearing on the site belong to the owner and may not be reproduced, altered or used without written authorisation.

Browsing the site transfers no rights in the content to the user. Only on-screen display, together with temporary reproduction and printing of individual pages for personal, non-commercial use, is permitted, provided that attribution and copyright notices are kept intact.

The shapes, designs and technical solutions of the products shown may be covered by industrial property rights. Their reproduction, including in part, for manufacturing purposes is prohibited.

5. Restricted catalogue area

Access to technical catalogues in PDF format requires creating an account. The service is intended for industry professionals, namely designers, architecture and engineering practices, installation companies, distributors and contractors, and not for end consumers.

By registering, the user undertakes to:

• provide truthful, complete and up-to-date information, including the professional capacity declared;
• keep their credentials secure and not share or transfer them to third parties, being responsible for all activity carried out through their account;
• promptly notify the owner of any unauthorised use they become aware of.

The owner grants the registered user a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to use the downloaded catalogues, limited to evaluation, design and specification purposes. Redistributing, publishing, reselling or making the catalogues available to third parties is prohibited, as is any use of them to develop competing products.

The owner reserves the right to suspend or delete accounts in the event of breach of these Terms, untruthful declarations or anomalous use of the service.

6. Prohibited uses

Users may not:

• use the site for unlawful purposes or otherwise contrary to these Terms;
• systematically extract content by means of crawlers, scrapers, robots or similar automated tools, or carry out bulk downloads;
• attempt to access restricted areas, other users’ accounts or infrastructure not expressly made available;
• circumvent, disable or compromise security measures, access controls or form protection systems;
• decompile, disassemble or reverse engineer the site’s code, save within the limits mandatorily permitted by law;
• reproduce the site or parts of it within other sites by framing, mirroring or equivalent techniques;
• introduce viruses or malicious code, or take any action liable to impair the proper functioning of the site.

7. Product information

The owner takes the greatest care over the accuracy of the technical information published. Performance, dimensional and photometric data are nonetheless provided for guidance and may be changed without notice as products evolve or in response to regulatory updates or production requirements.

Colour rendering of images depends on the characteristics of the display device and may differ from the actual appearance of the product. Bespoke work by its nature has specific characteristics, defined contractually on a case-by-case basis.

In all cases, only the specifications set out in the technical documentation attached to the order confirmation are authoritative.

8. Site availability

The owner endeavours to ensure continuity of service but assumes no obligation as to uninterrupted availability of the site. Access may be suspended, restricted or interrupted for maintenance, updates, technical causes or events not attributable to the owner. The owner further reserves the right to modify, suspend or discontinue the content and services offered, in whole or in part, at any time.

9. Links to third-party sites

The site may contain hyperlinks to external resources, offered solely for the user’s convenience. The owner exercises no control over such resources and is not responsible for their content, their availability or the data protection policies applied on them. Access is entirely at the user’s own risk.

10. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, the owner is not liable for damage arising from inability to access the site, from service interruptions, from material errors in the content, or from use of the published information for design purposes without first verifying the official technical documentation.

The owner’s liability expressly remains unaffected in cases of wilful misconduct and gross negligence, and for personal injury, in which cases any limitation is void under Article 1229 of the Italian Civil Code.

11. User-submitted content

Users who submit information through the site’s forms warrant that what they send is lawful and truthful and that they hold the rights necessary to transmit any attached materials. The owner is not obliged to respond to communications received and reserves the right not to act on requests that are manifestly vexatious, offensive or contrary to law.

12. Personal data protection

The processing of users’ personal data is described in the Privacy Policy. The storage technologies used are described in the Cookie Policy.

13. Changes to the Terms

The owner reserves the right to amend these Terms at any time. The version in force is the one published at this address, together with the date it was last updated, and applies to access occurring after publication. Users are responsible for reviewing it periodically.

14. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by Italian law.

For disputes arising with users acting in the course of their business, commercial or professional activity, the Court of Pistoia has exclusive jurisdiction.

15. Final provisions

The invalidity or ineffectiveness of any individual clause does not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. Tolerance of conduct departing from these Terms does not constitute a waiver of the rights arising from them.
