This paragraph does not apply to the virtual gift card, the delivery of which is governed by the provisions of the gift card terms and conditions.

In the event of a special request from the Client concerning the packaging or transport conditions of the Products ordered, duly accepted in writing by the Seller, the related costs will be subject to an additional specific invoice, based on a quote previously accepted in writing by the Client.

  • damage to the Product resulting from its normal wear and tear with regard to its nature, function, composition and price;
  • Products that have been used too intensively, in particular for other than private purposes;

Seller’s liability for Products delivered, including under applicable contractual or statutory warranties, is limited to the price of the defective or non-conforming Products. The Seller shall not be liable for compensation for indirect damage or any other financial loss suffered by the buyer or a third party.

Protection of personal data

In accordance with the Data Protection Act of 6 January 1978, reinforced and supplemented by the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) which came into force on 25 May 2018, it is recalled that the personal data requested from the Client are necessary for the processing of their order and the establishment of invoices.

The personal data collected from the Clients is subject to computer processing carried out by the Service Provider. It is recorded in its Client file and is essential for the processing of its order. This information and personal data is also kept for security purposes, in order to comply with legal and regulatory obligations. It will be kept for as long as necessary for the execution of the orders and any guarantees that may apply.

The data controller is the Service Provider. Access to personal data will be strictly limited to the employees of the data controller, who are authorized to process it by virtue of their functions. The information collected may be communicated to third parties linked to the company by contract for the performance of subcontracted tasks, without the Client’s authorization being required.

In the performance of their services, third parties have only limited access to the data and are obliged to use it in accordance with the provisions of the applicable legislation on the protection of personal data. Apart from the cases set out above, the Service Provider shall refrain from selling, renting, assigning or giving access to the data to third parties without the Client’s prior consent, unless it is obliged to do so for a legitimate reason.

This data may be communicated to any partners of the Service Provider in charge of the execution, processing, management and payment of orders.

If the data is transferred outside the EU, the Client will be informed and the guarantees taken in order to secure the data (for example, adherence of the external service provider to the “Privacy Shield”, adoption of standard protection clauses validated by the CNIL, adoption of a code of conduct, obtaining a CNIL certification, etc.) will be specified.

In accordance with the applicable regulations, the Client has the right to access, rectify, erase and portability data concerning him/her, as well as the right to object to processing for legitimate reasons, rights that he/she may exercise by contacting the data controller by completing the form on the contact page.

In the event of a complaint, the Client may submit a complaint to the Service Provider’s personal data protection officer or to the Commission Nationale de l’Informatique et des Libertés.

Intellectual property

The content of the Website is the property of the Seller and its partners and is protected by French and international laws relating to intellectual property.

Any total or partial reproduction of this content is strictly prohibited and may constitute an infringement of copyright.

 

Fortuity

In the event that the Service Provider or the Buyer wishes to raise, in the context of the Sale of the Service Provider’s Products to the Buyer subject to the T&Cs, a case of unforeseeability as defined by Article 1195 of the Civil Code as follows:

  • a health crisis considered a pandemic by the WHO or with serious and/or cyclical, material, financial international repercussions

A prior and mandatory attempt at conciliation will be organized, with the Service Provider and the Buyer refraining from any refusal to renegotiate.

This conciliation suspends the limitation period and the obligations of the Parties in relation to the Sale of Products transaction affected by the unforeseeability for the duration of the conciliation.

However, beyond 45 (FORTY-FIVE) days, the conciliation attempt will be deemed to have been completed.

In the event of success of the renegotiation, the Parties will immediately establish a new order formalizing the result of this renegotiation for the Product Sales operations concerned.

Any referral to the court in violation of this conciliation clause constitutes a plea of inadmissibility rendering the action inadmissible.

 

Force majeure

The Parties shall not be held liable if the non-performance or delay in the performance of any of their obligations, as described herein, results from a case of force majeure, within the meaning of Article 1218 of the Civil Code.

 

Exception of non-performance

It is recalled that pursuant to Article 1219 of the Civil Code, each Party may refuse to perform its obligation, even though it is due, if the other Party does not perform its own and if this non-performance is sufficiently serious, i.e., likely to call into question the continuation of the Contract or to fundamentally upset its economic balance. The suspension of performance shall take effect immediately, upon receipt by the defaulting Party of the notice of default sent to it for this purpose by the defaulting Party indicating the intention to apply the objection of non-performance as long as the defaulting Party has not remedied the failure to comply with the notice of non-performance, served by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt or on any other durable written medium allowing proof of dispatch to be provided.

This exception of non-performance may also be used as a preventive measure, in accordance with the provisions of Article 1220 of the Civil Code, if it is clear that one of the Parties will not perform its obligations by the due date and that the consequences of such non-performance are sufficiently serious for the Party that is the victim of the default.

This option shall be used at the risk and peril of the Party initiating the exercise.

The suspension of performance shall take effect immediately, upon receipt by the Party presumed to be in default of the notification of the intention to apply the objection of preventive non-performance, until the Party presumed to be in default complies with the obligation for which a future breach is manifest, notified by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt or on any other durable written medium allowing proof of dispatch to be provided.

 

Resolution

  1. Termination for force majeure

The occurrence of an event constituting force majeure within the meaning of case law and Article 1218 of the Civil Code will result in the suspension of the obligations weighing on the Seller. This non-performance of the Contract cannot engage the Seller’s liability. If the case of force majeure lasts longer than one (1) month, the Seller may not honour the order, subject to reimbursing the Client, if applicable, for the sums paid by it for the order concerned.

  1. Resolution for Breach of Obligations by a Party

In the event of non-compliance by either party with the obligations listed in the “Obligations of the Parties” section, it may be resolved at the discretion of the injured party.

It is expressly understood that this rescission for breach of a party’s obligations will take place by operation of law, the formal notice resulting solely from the fact of the non-performance of the obligation, without a summons or execution of formalities.

  1. Provisions common to resolution cases

It is expressly agreed between the Parties that the debtor of an obligation to pay under this contract shall be validly put in default by the sole exigibility of the obligation, in accordance with the provisions of Article 1344 of the Civil Code.

The services exchanged between the Parties from the conclusion of the contract until its termination have been useful as the reciprocal performance of the contract progresses, and they will not give rise to reimbursement for the period prior to the last service that did not receive its consideration.

In any event, the injured Party may seek damages in court if the damage was foreseeable at the time of the conclusion of the contract and constituted an immediate and direct consequence of its non-performance.

Applicable law – Language – Disputes

The T&Cs and the transactions resulting from them are governed by French law.

They are written in French. In the event that they are translated into one or more languages, only the French text will be authentic in the event of a dispute.

The Client is informed that he or she may in any event have recourse to conventional mediation, in particular with the Consumer Mediation Commission (Consumer Code, Article L.612-1) or with existing sectoral mediation bodies, the references of which appear on the website or any alternative dispute resolution method in the event of a dispute.

The client can consult the online dispute resolution (ODR) platform by clicking on the following link: https://webgate.ec.europa.eu/odr/main/index.cfm?event=main.home.show&lng=FR.

However, if at the end of a period of 45 (FORTY FIVE) days, the Parties are unable to agree on a compromise or a solution, the dispute will then be submitted to the jurisdiction designated below.

All disputes arising from this Agreement and the agreements arising from this Agreement concerning their validity, interpretation, performance, resolution, consequences and consequences shall be submitted to the competent court.
