In this case, SAPO IMPLANT cannot be held responsible for the absence of fresh anatomical subjects.
Prices are indicated in Euros, all taxes included.
After identifying himself, the Client validates his registration.

A form in PDF format is then generated and sent to the Customer electronically. The registration is then committed and constitutes a contract between the Client and SAPO IMPLANT. The generated form includes a list of additional documents to be provided for the final registration to be valid. The Client signs the generated form and sends all the required documents to SAPO IMPLANT by mail or e-mail.
SAPO IMPLANT reserves the right to cancel any registration of a client with whom there is a payment dispute, without the client being able to claim any compensation whatsoever.
