4.3 – Important information
The above delivery times are merely indicative and do not take account of possible delays that may be caused by problems with payment authorisations or due to delays by the carrier.
The transport times indicated correspond to the time between the departure of the order from the warehouse and receipt by the user, i.e., after the order is processed for shipping.
All orders need to be signed at the time of receipt as proof of delivery.
As soon as orders are dispatched, Caroderme is unable to change their delivery address.
4.4 – Track your order
All orders are shipped, after confirmation of payment, within 1 to 3 working days after payment and completion of the order. As soon as the order is dispatched, you will receive an email from Miyoko, with information on the tracking instructions and collection of the order.

If you would like to receive the order at an alternative address, you should indicate this at the time the order is completed. If you indicate this change after the order has left our premises, it will be subject to a charge.
Orders will be sent via CTT or Chronopost. With both Chronopost and CTT, a bar code with unique identification number is generated during shipment, which enables traceability of the order through the Track & Trace service.
Since both carriers require a signature upon delivery of orders, you or your representative must be present at the destination address at the respective time of delivery.
Orders over 2kg will have to be picked up at the CTT Store or Post Office closest to the recipient, who will be advised to proceed with the respective withdrawal.
In the case of orders that have to be collected at the CTT Store or Post Office, the recipient has up to 10 business days after the arrival notice to pick up the order. After this period, the order can be returned or redirected, being charged the value corresponding to the new route.
4.6 - Successful deliveries of shipments
Please examine the package carefully upon delivery of all shipments BEFORE signing the delivery document.
If, at the time of delivery, it appears that the package has been tampered with, you may sign the delivery document with reservations or you may refuse to accept it.
If you accept an order with reservations or refuse to accept it, please submit a complaint to the carrier immediately and contact Caroderme by email at miyoko@caroderme.pt.
4.7 - Undelivered orders
Orders that are not delivered due to a fault by the user, including errors in the address provided or any other reasons that make it impossible to deliver the order to the address, will be returned to Castelbel.

4.8 - Insurance
Caroderme is responsible for the order during the transit period until the effective delivery to the user.
At the time of delivery of the order, the user must sign the document proving the respective receipt, at which point the responsibility is transferred to the user.
If you appoint a recipient other than yourself to take delivery, you agree to accept the third party’s signature as proof of delivery of the order, fulfilment of Caroderme’s obligations and transfer of responsibility.
4.9 - Force majeure
Caroderme's compliance with its obligations may be affected in case of force majeure. Cases of force majeure include, among others, situations of war, civil war, revolution, riot, government measures, strikes, blockades or natural disasters.
