9. Prices and delivery charges
Prices for consumers include VAT. Delivery is free on orders of €150 or more (VAT included). Below that amount, delivery costs €11.95 to mainland Spain and the Balearic Islands (non-express service, up to 2 kg) and €20 to the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla and to any other European country, including the United Kingdom; free delivery applies to Spain only. Orders sent to the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla and to countries outside the European Union (United Kingdom, Switzerland, Norway, etc.) are issued without Spanish VAT and do not include import duties and taxes, which are paid by the recipient on delivery. If the order is not delivered for reasons beyond PORTENTUM's control, or is cancelled once dispatched, the customer will bear the cost of transport.
10. Placing an order
No registration is needed to buy: simply add the products to your basket, complete the delivery and billing details and confirm the order. Confirming it implies accepting these general terms and conditions. Unless proven otherwise, the data recorded by PORTENTUM constitute proof of the transactions carried out with its customers, and the electronic order document is archived and remains accessible to the customer.
Within a maximum of 24 hours of your purchase we will send you the order confirmation by email. If any detail is incorrect, you may request that it be amended or the order cancelled before it is dispatched.
11. Product availability
Products are offered while they are visible on the website and subject to availability; the stock shown is updated in real time. If an item were to become unavailable after your order, we will notify you immediately to offer you a new delivery date or to cancel that part of the order and refund its amount.
12. Delivery methods and times
Orders confirmed before 13:00 on working days leave our warehouse the same day. Delivery times are counted from Monday to Friday; no dispatches or deliveries are made on Saturdays, Sundays or public holidays. The delivery times shown on the website are approximate, and PORTENTUM is not liable for delays of less than 72 hours with respect to the expected date.
Products are sent to the address given in the order; if it is incorrect, the cost of a new shipment will be borne by the customer. Exceptionally, PORTENTUM may split the order and send the outstanding items later at no additional cost. If you notice any problem on receiving the order (damaged packaging, missing or damaged products), note it on the carrier's delivery note so that their insurance can cover it.
13. Payment
You can pay for your order in the following ways:
- Credit or debit card (Visa, Mastercard and American Express), through a secure payment gateway. PORTENTUM neither sees nor stores your card details.
- Bank transfer: the account details are shown when you confirm the order. Quote the order number as the payment reference. You have 7 working days to make the transfer; the order is prepared when we receive the funds, and the delivery time starts from that moment.
Professional customers may have specific payment terms agreed with PORTENTUM.
14. Right of withdrawal
If you buy as a consumer, you have 14 calendar days from receipt of the order to return it without giving any reason. Notify us in writing at info@portentum.com or via the contact form, quoting the order number, and send the product at your own expense to PORTENTUM, Calle Andalucía 6, Polígono Industrial El Pastoret, 03640 Monóvar (Alicante), together with a copy of the invoice. The cost of the return is borne by the customer, unless the product is faulty or does not match what was ordered.
The product must be returned complete, with its original packaging and accessories. If it shows damage from handling beyond what is necessary to establish its nature and functioning, we may deduct the corresponding depreciation from the refund. We will refund the amount, including the initial standard delivery charge, by the same payment method within a maximum of 14 days of receiving the product.
For hygiene reasons, sealed personal care or intimate-use products that have been unsealed after delivery cannot be returned.
If the product arrives with a functional defect, notify us within 24 hours of delivery and we will arrange the return at no cost to you.
15. Product warranty
Products sold to consumers carry the legal guarantee of conformity of three years from delivery, in accordance with the consolidated text of the Spanish General Law for the Protection of Consumers and Users. The warranty does not cover damage caused by knocks, misuse or use contrary to the instructions, improper handling or normal wear and tear.
- To make a claim under the warranty, contact us quoting the order number and describing the problem; we will tell you how to send the product to our premises.
- If the fault is covered, the product will be repaired or replaced, or the price reduced or refunded, on the terms established by law.
- If, after inspecting the product, the fault is not covered by the warranty, the delivery costs will be borne by the customer.
