14) RESPONSIBILITY
CUENDET has visited and checked each property. The descriptions appearing in our catalogue are accurate and have been prepared in good faith. CUENDET declines, therefore, all responsibility for any changes made by the owners without its knowledge, unless the total or partial fulfil of the contract is impossible and the holiday-maker does not accept the partial fulfilment of the contract. In case of problems the holiday-maker undertakes to do his best to solve or minimise them in order to avoid any prejudices that could result.
If the holiday-maker is unable to do this, he must immediately get in touch with CUENDET by telephone on the Saturday evening of his arrival (assistance server from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. - from Easter until October - Tel. 0577 576310) or by no later than the following Monday evening (office hours from 8.45 a.m. to 1.00 p.m. and from 1.45 p.m. to 5.30 p.m.), confirming his complaints in writing within 24 hours by fax (0577 301193) or by e-mail (customerservice@cuendet.com). The holiday-maker is obliged to give CUENDET the time necessary to solve the problem. Should there be no written complaint supplied as above specified and without an explicit authorisation by CUENDET, the holiday-makers who leave their accommodation prematurely forfeit their rights for a refund of the rental price, unless there is a legal right for them to have cancelled. Complaints received only at the end or after the stay will not be considered and no refunds will be given.
If, for any reason beyond its control including force majeure, CUENDET has to cancel the booking made by the holiday-maker, CUENDET will offer the holiday-maker another property of equivalent standard, provided that
CUENDET is able to provide other solutions. If the price of the alternative property is lower, CUENDET will reimburse to the holiday-maker the difference.
If an agreement cannot be found, both parties can retract from the contract. In this case CUENDET will reimburse the holiday-maker for the sum received for the rental period and no other reimbursements are due.
In case of cancellations not due to reasons beyond control, force majeure or fortuitous event, as well as in case of cancellations not due to the holiday-maker’s non-acceptance of the offered alternatives, the holiday-maker is entitled to what provided for according to article 33, paragraph 2, letter E of the Italian Cod. Cons.

Important information for all holiday-makers:
The properties that CUENDET offers are not official tourist structures, such as hotels, residences, etc. but private houses. Being such, they do not have standards or categories that are internationally recognised, indeed in their architecture and furnishings they reflect the local traditions and the personal taste of the owners.
This is precisely the kind of holiday that CUENDET offers: the chance to partake in the culture of the area chosen, living for a few weeks in the same surroundings as an inhabitant would. In order to live this experience in the right spirit, it is important not only that the holiday-maker accepts but also that he appreciates the differences in the properties CUENDET is proposing in comparison with those where he normally lives. For its part, CUENDET has carefully chosen such properties using a minimum and maximum quality range within which it believes that any European and indeed a citizen of the world can find total satisfaction. CUENDET cannot however exclude the possibility that these differences due to the special nature of its architecture and of traditions in the area can sometimes result in minor inconveniences which however cannot be accepted as complaints.

15) LAW AND JURISDICTION
In the event of controversies arising from the booking and the rental, the Florence Law Court only can deal with the matter and Italian law only applies. Signing the booking form and making the booking implies that CUENDET's General Letting Conditions have been understood and have thereby been accepted without reserve and without exception. If any of the conditions of this contract have become invalid or were invalid or if in this contract there should be a gap, the other conditions cannot be contested.

16) INFORMATIVE REPORT ACCORDING TO ART. 13, Legislative Decree 196/03
Cuendet & Cie. S.p.A., with headquarters in Monteriggioni (SI), Strada di Strove, 17, informs that the personal data acquired during the pre-contractual and contractual phases will be subject to processing for the purposes connected to or instrumental to our activities and that is:

1) for purposes connected to the stipulation of rental contracts, by means of booking procedure, execution and correct fulfillment of the relative contractual obligations. In the case of sensitive data (ex. disabled persons), this data can be processed only through written consent of the interested party.

2) If authorized, for purposes related to promotional information of the tourist programmes; the sending of catalogues; surveying of the satisfaction of Cuendet’s clientele.

The conferment of data for the purposes stated in paragraph 1) is optional but necessary for fulfilling the administrative fiscal contractual obligations provided by law and therefore lack of conferment, and consent where necessary, will make it impossible for Cuendet & Cie S.p.A. to be able to carry out the contractual commitments.
For that which concerns the purposes stated in the aforesaid paragraph 2), the conferment and consent is optional and the refusal of data processing does not produce any consequence.
The data processing will be carried out both in paper form and with the help of modern computer and telematic systems by subjects belonging to the Cuendet & Cie S.p.A. staff responsible for such activities, such as administrative, commercial and booking services, customer service, technical and computer assistance, and parties external to the Cuendet & Cie S.p.A. staff, such as commercial partners, carriers, technical and computer providers, financial institutions, other professionals and insurance companies.
The data will not be subject to communication and/or distribution to third parties if not in compliance with the obligations of the Law and/or contractual, they will be processed in compliance with the law and for the time strictly necessary.
Responsible for the data treatment is the board of directors of Cuendet & Cie S.p.A. located in the company’s registered office.
The interested party can nonetheless exercise his/her rights expressed in paragraph 7 of the Legislative Decree 196/03, in particular the right to know about the existence of the processing of his/her personal data, the origins, the methods and the purposes of the processing, as well as the identity of the person responsible for such activities and any others to whom the data may be transmitted, to request the updating, the correction, the cancellation, the transformation in anonymous form or the blockage of his/her data. Finally, the interested party can oppose, for legitimate reasons, the processing of his/her data.
