By providing information regarding their credit card, the Customer authorizes the Seller to debit their credit card for the total amount of the order through its payment service provider.

ARTICLE 8. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

8.1. Withdrawal Procedure

In the case of a distance or off-premises contract, the Customer has a period of fourteen (14) calendar days to inform the Seller of their intention to withdraw from the contract without having to justify their decision. For contracts concluded at a distance, the period begins from the day following (i) the delivery of the item in the case of ordering an item, (ii) the delivery of the first Series in the case of a subscription, and (iii) the order confirmation in the case of ordering a gift card. If the deadline falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or public holiday, it is extended until the next working day.

8.2. Exercise of the Right of Withdrawal 

The Customer must notify their decision to withdraw from the contract by means of a clear and unambiguous declaration by mail or email. The Customer may use the withdrawal form template available in the appendix hereto, but this is not mandatory. Where applicable, the Customer must also return the items without undue delay and no later than fourteen (14) calendar days from the notification of withdrawal to the address indicated at the top hereof.

In the event of exercise of the right of withdrawal, the return costs of the item are the sole responsibility of the Customer, and the Seller does not accept parcels returned carriage forward or cash on delivery. The Customer bears all risks associated with the return of the item. Only items returned complete, in their original condition, and with all their accessories in their original condition will be accepted. The Customer may be liable for any use exceeding what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics, and proper functioning of the item.

8.3. Refund 

In the event of exercise of the right of withdrawal, the Seller will refund the amounts paid by the Customer no later than fourteen (14) calendar days from the notification of withdrawal. 

The Seller reserves the right to defer the refund until the items are recovered. The return costs of the items remain the responsibility of the Customer and are therefore not refunded.

The refund will be made using the same means of payment as that used by the Customer for the initial transaction, unless otherwise agreed. 

In the event that the Customer wishes to return an item purchased with a gift card, the Seller will refund the Customer in the form of vouchers usable on the Site and in-store. In the event of exercising the right of withdrawal within the aforementioned period, only the price of the purchased item(s) and the delivery costs are refunded, with the return costs remaining the responsibility of the Customer.

8.4. Exclusions

Returns must be made in their original and complete condition (packaging, accessories, instructions, etc.) allowing them to be returned to the market in new condition, accompanied by the purchase invoice or delivery note. Damaged, unsealed, soiled, or incomplete items will not be accepted.

The consumer cannot exercise their right of withdrawal for goods made to the consumer's specifications or clearly personalized (for example, custom sets or specific orders on estimate), goods that have been unsealed by the consumer after delivery and cannot be returned for reasons of hygiene or health protection.

The right of withdrawal cannot be exercised when the Customer has chosen the option of label customization or any other customization. In the case of a gift card order, the Customer cannot exercise their right of withdrawal once the gift card balance has been spent, even partially, before the end of the withdrawal period.

ARTICLE 9. LEGAL WARRANTIES

The consumer has a period of two years from the delivery of the item to invoke the legal warranty of conformity in the event of a defect in conformity. During this period, the consumer is only required to establish the existence of the non-conformity and not the date of its occurrence.

The legal warranty of conformity obliges the professional, where applicable, to provide all necessary updates to maintain the conformity of the item. 

The legal warranty of conformity entitles the consumer to repair or replacement of the item within thirty days following their request, at no cost and without major inconvenience to them. The consumer may obtain a price reduction by keeping the item or terminate the contract by obtaining a full refund upon return of the item, if:

  1. The professional refuses to repair or replace the item;
  2. Repair or replacement of the item occurs after thirty days;
  3. Repair or replacement of the item causes major inconvenience to the consumer, especially when the consumer bears the permanent costs of recovery or removal of the non-compliant item, or if they bear the costs of installing the repaired or replaced item;
  4. The non-compliance of the item persists despite the unsuccessful attempt at compliance by the seller. The consumer also has the right to a price reduction or contract termination when the non-conformity is so serious that an immediate price reduction or contract termination is justified. The consumer is not required to request repair or replacement of the item beforehand. The consumer is not entitled to contract termination if the non-conformity is minor. Any immobilization period of the item for repair or replacement suspends the warranty that remained valid until the delivery of the item restored to a satisfactory condition. A seller who acts in bad faith to prevent the implementation of the legal warranty of conformity incurs a civil fine of up to €300,000, which can be increased to 10% of the average annual turnover. The consumer also benefits from the legal warranty against hidden defects in accordance with Articles 1641 to 1649 of the Civil Code, for a period of two years from the discovery of the defect. This warranty entitles the consumer to a price reduction if the item is kept or to a full refund upon return of the item. To exercise a legal warranty, the Customer must contact the Seller by mail or email. The Customer must specify the defects encountered on the item concerned as well as any useful information and attach any documents (including photographs) allowing the defects encountered to be assessed. The Customer must also provide proof of purchase of the item from the Seller. Upon request from the Seller, the Customer must return the item concerned at their own expense and risk. Items sold on the Site comply with the regulations in force in France. The Seller's liability cannot be engaged in the event of non-compliance with the legislation of the country where the item is delivered. It is the responsibility of the Customer to verify with the competent local authorities the conditions inherent to the importation or use of the items. The Seller and the Customer undertake to exchange in good faith.

ARTICLE 10. LIABILITY

The Seller shall not be held liable in the event that the damage results from negligence or fault attributable to the Customer, unforeseeable and insurmountable actions of a third party, or in cases of force majeure. Force majeure refers to any external, unforeseeable, and irresistible event within the meaning of Article 1218 of the Civil Code and as defined by case law. 

The Customer cannot claim that the item is inadequate to their expectations due to an error or omission on their part.

The Seller is only bound by an obligation of means regarding the provision of access to the Site. The Seller cannot guarantee the complete absence of errors or anomalies on the Site that it makes available. The Customer is informed that access to the Site may be temporarily interrupted for maintenance or updates. The Customer will be notified via a notification on the homepage of the Site. No compensation will be due to the Customer for a temporary unavailability of access to the Site.

The Customer shall be responsible, at their own expense, for the acquisition, installation, maintenance, and connection of the various elements of the configuration and telecommunication means necessary for access to the Site. It is also their responsibility to subscribe to the telecommunication subscriptions necessary for access to the Site.
