Right of Withdrawal

We comply with European law, which imposes 14 days for the cancellation or return of your order. We are going further by offering all our customers a 30-day return policy, which means you have 30 days after having received your item to request a return.

During this period, you can return the undamaged products without having to justify your motives.

If you choose to exercise your right of withdrawal, you will bear the cost of returning the product.

The product must be returned to us in its original packaging, in perfect condition, and accompanied by the purchase invoice within 15 days of your notification to Unistellar of your decision to withdraw.

Damaged products will not be accepted. It is your responsibility to check the condition of the product upon receipt. In case of damaged products received, it is necessary to follow the procedure described in the article "Limited Product Warranty".

The right of withdrawal can be exercised by email to the following address: support@unistellaroptics.com, in which case an acknowledgment of receipt will be immediately sent to you; or by any other unambiguous statement expressing your desire to withdraw.

If you decide to withdraw, we will refund all amounts paid, including the cost of delivery to the original place of delivery (with the exception of additional costs related to the choice of a delivery method other than the standard, least expensive delivery method offered by us), as soon as possible and, in any case, within approximately 2 to 3 business days of our receipt of your merchandise. The method of refund will be the same as the method of payment you used for the initial transaction. Notwithstanding the above, we may defer issuing the refund until we have received the returned products or you have provided us with proof of return, whichever is earlier.

Limited product warranty. Limitation of liability.

(a) When you purchase a new product, we warrant the product against defects in materials and workmanship under ordinary consumer use for two years from the date of original retail purchase. During this warranty period, if a defect arises in the product, and you follow the instructions for returning the product, we will at our option, to the extent permitted by law, either (i) repair the product using either new or refurbished parts, (ii) replace the product with a new or refurbished product that is equivalent to the product to be replaced, or (iii) propose you a product of the superior range by paying the difference between the two articles. This limited warranty applies, to the extent permitted by law, to any repair, replacement part or replacement device for the remainder of the original warranty period. If the product is repaired under the legal guarantee of conformity, the consumer benefits from a six-month extension of the initial guarantee. In the specific case where the consumer chooses to have the product repaired but this is not implemented because of Unistellar, the consumer will benefit from a new period of legal guarantee of conformity attached to the replaced product that is two years for a new product and one year for a second-hand product. In the interest of more responsible consumption, we encourage our customers to always choose the repair of a good rather than its replacement. All replaced parts shall become our property. In certain circumstances listed below, the Warranty does not apply. This limited warranty applies only to hardware components of the product that have not been subject to accident, misuse, neglect, fire or damage from other external causes, alteration, repair, or commercial use.

Warranty will not apply if the damage is due to manipulation, inappropriate use, alteration, or in case of disassembly or attempted disassembly of the product or its parts unless expressly authorized by Unistellar.

Warranty will not apply in case of :

  • Normal wear and tear of components or parts that may wear out over time (such as the battery)
  • Accidental damage
  • Damage caused by failure to follow the Product's maintenance recommendations.

(b) Instructions. If you purchased your product from an authorized reseller, please contact the reseller for information on how to obtain warranty service for your product. If you purchased your product through our Site, please contact our Customer Service at support@unistellaroptics.com. In general, you will need to send us your product in either its original packaging or in an equally protective packaging provided by us to the address that will be provided to you.

Limitations. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE WARRANTY AND REMEDIES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES, AND WE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ALL STATUTORY OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND AGAINST HIDDEN OR LATENT DEFECTS. IF WE CANNOT LAWFULLY DISCLAIM STATUTORY OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, THEN TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALL SUCH WARRANTIES SHALL BE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE DURATION OF THIS EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTY AND TO REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT SERVICE.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG A STATUTORY OR IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU IF YOU RESIDE IN A JURISDICTION THAT DOES NOT ALLOW SUCH LIMITATIONS. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM ANY BREACH OF WARRANTY OR UNDER ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY. IN SOME JURISDICTIONS THE FOREGOING LIMITATION DOES NOT APPLY TO DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY CLAIMS, OR ANY STATUTORY LIABILITY FOR INTENTIONAL AND GROSS NEGLIGENT ACTS AND/OR OMISSIONS, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU IF YOU RESIDE IN A JURISDICTION THAT DOES NOT ALLOW SUCH EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF DIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU IF YOU RESIDE IN A JURISDICTION THAT DOES NOT ALLOW SUCH EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS.

This limited warranty gives you specific rights. You may have additional rights under applicable law, and this limited warranty does not affect such rights.

(c) LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. THE REMEDIES DESCRIBED ABOVE ARE YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES AND OUR ENTIRE OBLIGATION AND LIABILITY FOR ANY BREACH OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. OUR LIABILITY WILL UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEED THE ACTUAL AMOUNT PAID BY YOU FOR THE PRODUCT(S) THAT YOU HAVE PURCHASED THROUGH THE SITE, NOR WILL WE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF PRODUCTION, WORK, DATA, USE, BUSINESS, GOODWILL, REPUTATION, REVENUE OR PROFIT, ANY DIMINUTION IN VALUE, COSTS OF REPLACEMENT GOODS OR SERVICES, OR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOSSES, WHETHER DIRECT OR INDIRECT.

The limitation of liability set forth above shall (i) only apply to the extent permitted by law and (ii) not apply to (A) liability resulting from our gross negligence or wilful misconduct and (B) death or bodily injury resulting from our acts or omissions.
