Terms of Service and Refund Policy
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the website "www.bluecast.store" (the "Website") and all services, products, and content offered by NK Ferreira LLC, doing business as "BlueCast USA" (hereinafter referred to as "BlueCast USA," "we," "us," or "our").
By accessing or using the Website and purchasing any item from our online store, you agree to abide by these Terms, including our Refund Policy, and consent to the practices described therein. If you do not agree with any of these Terms, please refrain from using our services.
1. ORDERS AND ACCEPTANCE
Submitting an order through our Website constitutes an offer to purchase the products listed in the order.
Receipt of an automated order confirmation does not constitute final acceptance of an order. BlueCast USA reserves the right to accept, decline, cancel, limit, or hold any order for legitimate business, inventory, payment, fraud-prevention, export, compliance, or verification reasons.
If an order is canceled by BlueCast USA before shipment, any amount collected for the canceled merchandise will be refunded as required by applicable law.
We reserve the right to limit quantities or refuse orders that appear to be placed for unauthorized resale, fraudulent purposes, misuse, or other activity that may expose BlueCast USA or its customers to risk.
2. ORDER AND PAYMENT VERIFICATION
To protect our customers and prevent unauthorized transactions, BlueCast USA may perform fraud and payment verification before shipping an order.
For certain orders, including unusually large transactions, first-time customers, orders with mismatched billing and shipping information, international transactions, or transactions flagged by our payment systems, we may request additional verification.
Verification may include confirmation of the order by email, confirmation of billing or shipping information, or reasonable proof that the purchaser is authorized to use the selected payment method.
We will never request a customer’s complete credit-card number by email.
Failure or refusal to complete a reasonable verification request may result in the order being delayed or canceled and refunded.
3. PRICES, AVAILABILITY AND PRODUCT INFORMATION
All prices are displayed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.
Prices, promotions, specifications, packaging, availability, product formulations, and product descriptions may change without notice.
We make reasonable efforts to ensure that information displayed on our Website is accurate. However, typographical, pricing, technical, photographic, inventory, or other errors may occasionally occur.
If an error affects an order, BlueCast USA may contact the customer to correct the order or cancel and refund the affected item.
4. TECHNICAL PRODUCTS AND RESULTS
BlueCast products are professional materials whose performance may depend on numerous variables outside BlueCast USA’s control.
These variables may include, among others:
-
printer model and condition;
-
wavelength and light output;
-
printer calibration;
-
exposure settings;
-
layer height;
-
model geometry and orientation;
-
support design;
-
resin temperature and storage;
-
washing and post-processing;
-
investment material;
-
investment preparation;
-
burnout equipment and cycle;
-
flask preparation;
-
casting temperature;
-
alloy;
-
casting equipment;
-
environmental conditions; and
-
operator technique.
Technical settings, printer profiles, processing recommendations, videos, guides, troubleshooting information, and other technical materials supplied by BlueCast or BlueCast USA are provided as guidance based on available testing and experience.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, printer settings should be considered recommended starting points and may require calibration for the customer’s individual equipment and process.
The purchase of a BlueCast product does not constitute a guarantee of a particular printing, burnout, casting, manufacturing, or production result.
A failed print, investment, burnout, casting, or manufacturing result does not by itself establish that a product is defective.
Customers are responsible for evaluating product compatibility with their equipment, materials, application, production process, and intended use.
5. PRODUCT SAFETY AND HANDLING
Customers are responsible for reviewing and following the applicable product instructions, Safety Data Sheet (“SDS”), equipment manufacturer instructions, and all appropriate safety procedures before handling or using any BlueCast product.
Products must be stored, handled, used, and disposed of appropriately.
BlueCast USA is not responsible for damage caused by improper storage, contamination, improper handling, misuse, failure to follow applicable instructions or safety information, or use outside the product’s intended application, to the extent permitted by law.
6. SHIPPING
Orders are shipped to the shipping address provided by the customer during checkout.
Customers are responsible for reviewing their shipping information before submitting an order.
Once an order has shipped, changes to the delivery address may not be possible.
Shipping dates and delivery dates are different. Any delivery date provided by a carrier is generally an estimate unless expressly identified as a guaranteed service.
BlueCast USA is responsible for tendering the package to the applicable carrier in accordance with the selected shipping method and applicable law.
Carrier delays caused by weather, transportation disruptions, customs, incorrect address information, governmental actions, natural disasters, or other circumstances outside our reasonable control may affect delivery.
Nothing in these Terms limits rights provided to customers under applicable law.
7. INCORRECT OR INCOMPLETE SHIPPING ADDRESS
Customers are responsible for providing a complete and accurate shipping address.
If a package cannot be delivered because the customer supplied an incorrect, incomplete, outdated, or otherwise undeliverable address, additional shipping charges may apply to reship the order.
Original shipping charges may not be refundable when a shipment failure results from incorrect information supplied by the customer, except where otherwise required by law.
If an address error is discovered before shipment, contact usa@bluecast.it immediately. We will make reasonable efforts to correct the address but cannot guarantee that changes can be completed after an order has entered fulfillment.
8. TRACKING AND DELIVERY
When tracking information is available, it will normally be provided to the customer electronically.
Customers are encouraged to monitor tracking information and make appropriate arrangements to receive their package.
Carrier tracking records, delivery scans, delivery photographs, GPS information, signatures, pickup records, and other carrier documentation may be used to determine and document shipment and delivery status.
A carrier’s “Delivered” scan is evidence of delivery to the destination provided with the order, but BlueCast USA will review reasonable reports of delivery problems in accordance with the procedures below.
9. PACKAGE MARKED DELIVERED BUT NOT RECEIVED
If carrier tracking indicates that a package was delivered but the customer cannot locate it, the customer should:
-
Check the delivery location and surrounding areas;
-
Check with household members, employees, reception desks, mailrooms, neighbors, or other persons who may have accepted the package;
-
Review any delivery photograph or carrier notification available; and
-
Contact BlueCast USA promptly if the package still cannot be located.
BlueCast USA may initiate or assist with a carrier investigation when appropriate.
We may request reasonable information necessary to investigate the shipment.
Refunds or replacements are not automatically issued solely because a customer reports that a package cannot be located after a carrier has recorded delivery. Each claim will be evaluated based on the available carrier records, circumstances, applicable carrier procedures, and applicable law.
10. LOST OR DAMAGED SHIPMENTS
If a package is damaged in transit, arrives with missing contents, or appears to have been tampered with, the customer should preserve:
-
the shipping box;
-
shipping label;
-
internal packaging;
-
damaged merchandise;
-
photographs of all sides of the package; and
-
any other evidence relating to the shipment.
Please contact BlueCast USA promptly at usa@bluecast.it.
The customer may be asked to provide photographs and reasonable documentation so that BlueCast USA can investigate and, when applicable, file a carrier claim.
Customers should not discard packaging or damaged merchandise until the claim has been resolved or BlueCast USA confirms that preservation is no longer necessary.
11. INTERNATIONAL ORDERS, CUSTOMS AND IMPORT FEES
International customers are responsible for determining whether products may lawfully be imported, possessed, and used in their destination country.
Unless expressly included at checkout, import duties, VAT, customs charges, brokerage charges, taxes, clearance fees, and other destination-country charges are the responsibility of the recipient.
Customs processing may delay delivery.
BlueCast USA cannot control customs inspections, clearance times, or assessments imposed by foreign authorities or carriers.
Refusal to pay lawful duties, taxes, brokerage charges, or customs fees does not automatically entitle the customer to a refund of shipping costs or other costs incurred in connection with the shipment, subject to applicable law.
12. RETURNS
BlueCast USA accepts eligible returns of unopened merchandise requested within 15 calendar days after delivery.
To qualify for return:
-
the product must remain unopened;
-
seals must remain intact;
-
the product must not have been used, altered, contaminated, or tampered with;
-
the product must be returned in its original condition and packaging; and
-
a Return Authorization must be obtained before shipping the item back.
Opened resin and other opened consumable products are not eligible for return because their storage conditions, contamination status, handling history, and integrity can no longer be verified after opening.
This restriction does not eliminate any rights a customer may have regarding merchandise that was defective when delivered or rights that cannot legally be waived.
13. RETURN AUTHORIZATION
Before returning merchandise, contact:
BlueCast USA will provide return instructions and, when appropriate, a Return Authorization (“RA”).
Unauthorized returns may be refused or delayed.
Customers are responsible for securely packaging authorized returns.
Unless the return is the result of an error by BlueCast USA or otherwise required by law, return shipping is the customer’s responsibility.
14. REFUNDS
Approved refunds will be issued to the original payment method after the returned merchandise has been received and inspected.
Original shipping charges are non-refundable for voluntary returns unless otherwise required by law.
If an order qualified for free shipping, BlueCast USA may, where legally permitted and clearly disclosed, deduct actual outbound shipping costs associated with a voluntary return.
Refund processing times after issuance are controlled in part by the customer’s financial institution and may vary.
15. WRONG, DAMAGED OR POTENTIALLY DEFECTIVE PRODUCT
If BlueCast USA shipped the wrong product, or if merchandise arrives damaged or appears to have a manufacturing defect, contact usa@bluecast.it promptly and provide:
-
order number;
-
product name;
-
product lot/batch information when available;
-
description of the issue;
-
photographs or video when relevant; and
-
any technical information reasonably required to evaluate the issue.
Do not discard the product or packaging while the claim is being evaluated.
For technical-performance claims, BlueCast USA may reasonably request information about printer settings, printer model, processing procedure, investment, burnout, casting parameters, photographs, files, or other information necessary to determine whether the issue relates to the product, equipment, settings, process, storage, or another cause.
16. ORDER CANCELLATION
Customers may request cancellation by contacting BlueCast USA as quickly as possible.
Cancellation is not guaranteed once an order has entered fulfillment or has shipped.
If an order has already shipped, the normal return policy applies.
Nothing in this section limits cancellation or refund rights required by applicable law.
17. CHARGEBACKS AND PAYMENT DISPUTES
BlueCast USA takes payment disputes seriously.
If a customer believes there is a problem with an order, we encourage the customer to contact usa@bluecast.it before initiating a payment dispute whenever reasonably possible so that we have an opportunity to investigate and resolve the issue.
Nothing in these Terms prevents a cardholder from exercising lawful rights available through their financial institution or applicable payment network.
When a chargeback or payment dispute is filed, BlueCast USA may provide the payment processor, financial institution, card network, or other relevant party with information reasonably necessary to respond to the dispute, including:
-
order confirmation;
-
checkout and transaction records;
-
acceptance of Website terms;
-
billing and shipping information;
-
fraud-screening or verification results;
-
relevant IP/device or transaction information when lawfully available;
-
customer communications;
-
product information;
-
shipping records;
-
tracking numbers;
-
carrier scans;
-
proof of delivery;
-
signature confirmation;
-
photographs;
-
return or refund history; and
-
other documentation relevant to the transaction.
The filing of a chargeback does not independently modify the return or refund terms applicable to an order, except as determined by applicable law, the customer’s financial institution, or the applicable payment network.
18. FRAUDULENT OR UNAUTHORIZED TRANSACTIONS
Customers should not place orders using a payment method they are not authorized to use.
BlueCast USA may cancel, hold, or investigate transactions reasonably suspected of fraud or unauthorized use.
We may cooperate with payment processors, financial institutions, carriers, law enforcement, and other appropriate parties when investigating suspected fraud, theft, package interception, false claims, or unauthorized transactions, consistent with applicable law.
19. RESALE AND PROFESSIONAL USE
BlueCast products are frequently purchased for professional, commercial, manufacturing, jewelry, dental, prototyping, or related applications.
Unless expressly agreed in writing, BlueCast USA does not guarantee profitability, production yield, manufacturing output, customer-specific suitability, or commercial results from use of any product.
Customers purchasing products for commercial or professional use remain responsible for their own production processes, quality controls, equipment, personnel, and compliance obligations.
20. WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMER
Products are covered only by warranties expressly provided by the applicable manufacturer or required by law.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, BlueCast USA disclaims warranties that are not expressly stated, including implied warranties to the extent they may legally be disclaimed.
Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties, remedies, or consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded or limited.

This limitation does not apply where liability cannot lawfully be limited or excluded.
