The warranty does not cover: products past their expiry date, abnormal use or negligence in storage or maintenance, normal wear and tear, or the modification of the product or its incompatibility with other materials.
9. NOTICES
Unless otherwise indicated, notices of cancellation, modification and other operations relating to orders shall be given by email. The parties acknowledge that emails shall have the same evidential value as communications with acknowledgement of receipt.
