However, sometimes and due to causes that are difficult to control by Xinú, such as human mistakes or incidents in the computer systems, it is possible that a product originally quoted as available is not or is no longer available. In the event that a product is not available after the order has been placed, the customer will be informed via email about the total or partial cancellation of their order. The partial cancellation of the order due to lack of availability does not entitle the total cancellation of the order.
