RESPONSIBLE SHIPPING
Responsible shipping is fulfilled by logistics providers using solutions to reduce emissions. Delivery may take up to 5 business days.
This shipping option consists of either:
1. Full ground service: shipments served via truck. Transportation emissions are reduced by exclusively using ground transportation instead of other available shipping modes with higher emissions. Not applicable to destinations that do not have such other shipping modes; other exclusions may apply.
2. Emission compensation program (if provided by selected transportation carriers): providers calculate carbon emissions from pickup to delivery; the carbon emissions are then offset through climate protection projects including reforestation, renewable energy, waste disposal, wind power and others, supported by the logistics providers. The carbon neutral service is verified by a certified auditing company (i.e. Société Générale de Surveillance).
Below the list of the logistics providers that can provide emissions compensation:
UPS: https://about.ups.com/gb/en/our-company/governance/carbon-neutral-credentials.html
GLS: https://gls-group.eu/GROUP/en/our-responsibility/climate-protect/
*Some exclusions may apply.

Counterfeiting is an illegal activity that not only affects companies and brands but can also cause serious damage to the health of consumers who buy products that do not comply with quality standards.
Luxottica has been working aggressively in its global fight against counterfeiting with dedicated teams worldwide.
With the growth of the Internet, we have seen a sharp increase in new counterfeiters exploiting websites, marketplaces and social media.
As the landscape changes, Luxottica is constantly improving and expanding its brand protection activities. In addition to constant online monitoring, we partner with local specialized institutions, including Customs and Law Enforcement Agencies, to intercept fake products at customs and tackle the entire illegal production chain.
In 2020 Luxottica has requested and obtained the takedown of over 297.000 listings offering counterfeit products on marketplaces, 72.210 profiles and post promoting counterfeits products or scam advertising on social media and closed over 2.600 website all over the word.
The growing popularity of social media has brought with it a new crop of counterfeiters and more evolved scam techniques. Counterfeiters are becoming more and more sophisticated and dangerous.
During our investigation we discovered that thousands of users on social media such Instagram and Facebook have been victim of an advanced scam that uses Ray-Ban to attract consumers and compromise their personal data.
Luxottica has no connection at all to these websites or activities and we strongly encourage users to be extra vigilant when sharing their personal information online.
Scammers can compromise users accounts, stealing their personal information and passwords. Very often, users are not aware that their accounts have been compromised and as a result, any website or platform where they use the same credentials are consequently at high risk.
Some websites such as haveibeenpwned.com allow users to check if their credentials might be part of a data breach. If your account has been hacked or if you suspect that your credentials have been stolen in the past, we strongly suggest that you change all your accounts and activate the two- factor authentication where available.
When it comes to social media, we highly recommend the following tips and advice below:
