By accessing content on this website, you agree to not imitate, modify, reproduce, republish, upload, post, transmit, copy, or distribute, in any manner when for gain (monetary or otherwise), the material on this web site or its underlying code, without express permission from us.

We generally grant permission when we can determine that the material will be used for educational purposes, provided we are clearly identified as the source and copyright holder. In such cases, materials must not be modified or quoted out of context.

You may save information from this website in your personal computer, or print information for your own personal use. You may also distribute original content from fantes.com in a limited fashion when for the purpose of informing potential users about us. However, you may not use it for monetary or marketing gain, and you may not alter it in any way without our permission.

Use of Information You Provide

We feel very strongly about our customers' right to privacy, therefore we only collect pertinent personal information when you order from us. We use that information to complete your order and to contact you regarding the status of your order. It is then stored in our archives only for as long as we are required, by laws relating to financial record keeping. And we cover these issues and more in our Privacy Policy.

We do not add you to mailing lists, and we do not share your information with others.

Your comments and your responses to our inquiries (feedback, data, ideas, etc.) are deemed not to be confidential, and fantes.com may use such responses without limitation. In such cases, we ensure your privacy, by not including any of your personal identifying information.

 
Inquiries

We will do our best to answer inquiries that you direct to us. Needless to say, your inquiries are most likely to receive a response when they are related to merchandise and services that you are contemplating on purchasing, or have purchased, from us, and must be within our field of expertise.

We generally keep information on sourcing confidential, as it is, in many cases, a competitive advantage that we work hard to maintain, so that we can bring you such a wide variety of products and information.

 
Orders

Our criteria for accepting orders is delineated in our Ordering Information page. We reserve the right to reject or cancel any order that does not meet such criteria.

We also reserve the right to reject or cancel any order on which your credit card issuer cannot or will not provide verification of your billing or shipping address or authorization for the transaction.

 
Errors and Omissions

We will do our best to make sure all the information on our website is correct. If you notice errors or omissions (which, being only human, we are apt to commit), we appreciate your letting us know, so that we may correct them. Sometimes manufacturers alter some minor product specifications without notification, which also cause errors in the information we provide.

If we make errors that impact your order, our liability is limited to the price you paid to us for our products and services. If your order has not yet been shipped, you will have the option to accept delivery under corrected terms that you and we agree upon, or to cancel the items ordered.

Though we will always do our best to ship products on a timely basis, when we fall short of expectations we'll do our best to rectify the situation in order to make you happy. After all, we only exist because of our satisfied customers.

If you are in any way dissatisfied with your order, and you don't feel that the measures we have taken to satisfy you were adequate, please send an e-mail to me, Mariella Esposito, Pres. I will do my best to intercede on your behalf.

The use of information on this site is provided without warranty of any kind, either expressed or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, since purpose can be a matter of subjective speculation. When in doubt, research other sources of information.

Except as allowed by law, in no event will fantes.com be liable for any direct, indirect or consequential damages, or any damages whatsoever resulting from losses of any kind arising out of, or in connection with, the information, the web site, or the products.
