The CLIENT undertakes to carefully read this information before placing an order on the WEBSITE.

Unless expressly indicated otherwise on the WEBSITE, all PRODUCTS sold by the VENDOR are brand new and comply with European legislation in force and standards applicable in France.

5.2. ORDERING PROCEDURE

PRODUCT orders are placed directly on the WEBSITE. To place an order, the CLIENT must follow the stages described below (please note however the depending on the CLIENT’s start up page, the stages may differ slightly).

5.2.1. PRODUCT SELECTION AND PURCHASE OPTIONS

The CLIENT must choose the PRODUCT(s) of his choice by clicking on the PRODUCT(s) concerned and by choosing the characteristics and quantities desired. Once the PRODUCT chosen, the PRODUCT is placed in the CLIENT’s basket. The latter may then add as many PRODUCTS as he wishes to his basket.

5.2.2. ORDERS

Once the PRODUCTS chosen and placed in his basket, the CLIENT must click on the basket and check that the contents of his order are correct. If the CLIENT has not yet done so, he shall then be invited to identify himself or register. Once the CLIENT has validated the contents of the basket and is identified/registered, an online form completed automatically shall be displayed for his attention summarising the price, applicable taxes and if applicable delivery costs. The CLIENT is invited to check the contents of his order (including the quantity, characteristics and references of the ordered PRODUCTS, the invoicing address, the means of payment and the price) before validating his contents.

Concerning PRODUCTS for which options are available, these specific references appear when the right options have been chosen. Orders placed must include all information needed for the correct processing of the order. The CLIENT must also indicate the delivery method chosen.

5.2.3. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF RECEIPT

Once all of the stages described above have been completed, a page appears on the WEBSITE to acknowledge receipt of the CLIENT’s order.

The CLIENT must then specify the means of payment chosen. Neither the order form that the CLIENT establishes online nor the order acknowledgement of receipt that the VENDOR sends to the CLIENT by email constitute an invoice. Whatever the delivery method or means of payment used, the CLIENT shall receive the original of the invoice on DELIVERY of the PRODUCTS, inside the parcel.

Any modification of the applicable rate may impact the price of the PRODUCTS from the date the new rate comes into force.

The VENDOR undertakes to honour the orders received subject to the PRODUCTS being available. The unavailability of a PRODUCT is in principle indicated on the page of the PRODUCT concerned. CLIENTS can also be informed by the VENDOR when a PRODUCT has been restocked. In any case, if the unavailability has not been indicated at the time of the order, the VENDOR undertakes to inform the CLIENT immediately if the PRODUCT is unavailable or propose an alternative PRODUCT of equivalent quality and price, accepted by the CLIENT. If the CLIENT decides to cancel his order of unavailable PRODUCTS, he shall be refunded all sums paid for the unavailable PRODUCTS immediately and in the thirty (30) days of the payment at the latest.

Any contract concluded with the CLIENT corresponding to an order of an amount greater than 120 euros incl. tax shall be archived by the VENDOR for a period of ten (10) years in accordance with article L. 134-2 of the code of consumption. The VENDOR agrees to archive this information in order to ensure a monitoring of transactions and to produce a copy of the contract at the CLIENT’s request. In the event of a dispute, the VENDOR shall have the possibility of proving that its electronic monitoring system is reliable and that it guarantees the integrity of the transaction.

ARTICLE 9. TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP

The VENDOR remains the owner of the delivered PRODUCTS until they are paid for in full by the CLIENT. The provisions above do not impede the transfer to the CLIENT, at the time of receipt by him, or by a third party designated by him other than the carrier, of the risks of loss or damage of the PRODUCTS being the subject of the retention of title as well as the risks of damage that they may lead to.

ARTICLE 10. DELIVERY

ARTICLE 12. WARRANTIES

12.1. COMPLIANCE WARRANTY

The VENDOR is bound to deliver a compliant PRODUCT in other words suitable for the expected use of a similar good and corresponding to the description given on the WEBSITE. This compliance also implies that the PRODUCT presents the qualities that a buyer may legitimately expect with regard to the public declarations made by the VENDOR including in adverts and on labels. In this framework, the VENDOR is liable to answer for non-conformity existing during issuing and non-conformity resulting from the packaging, assembly or installation instructions when this is its responsibility or has been carried out under its responsibility. The action resulting from non-conformity expires two (2) years after the ISSUING of the PRODUCT. In the event of non-conformity, the CLIENT may ask for a PRODUCT to be replaced or repaired, at his discretion. However, if the cost of the CLIENT’s choice is clearly disproportionate with regard to the other conceivable option, considering the value of the PRODUCT or the importance of the defect, the VENDOR shall proceed with a refund, without adhering to the option chosen by the CLIENT. Should a replacement be impossible, the VENDOR undertakes to reimburse the price of the PRODUCT within 30 days on receipt of the returned PRODUCT and in exchange for the CLIENT sending the PRODUCT back to the following address: 8, Boulevard du Lapacca, 65100 LOURDES.

12.2. HIDDEN DEFECT WARRANTY

The VENDOR is bound by the warranty because of hidden defects of the sold PRODUCT that make it unsuitable for the use for which it is intended, or that diminishes this use to such an extent that the CLIENT would not have purchased it or would have paid less for it if he had known. This warranty allows the CLIENT who can prove the existence of a hidden defect to choose between being refunded the price of the PRODUCT if it is returned and being refunded part of its price if the PRODUCT is not returned. In the event a replacement is possible, the VENDOR undertakes to reimburse the price of the PRODUCT within 30 days on receipt of the returned PRODUCT and in exchange for the CLIENT sending the PRODUCT back to the following address: 8, Boulevard du Lapacca, 65100 LOURDES. Legal action resulting from hidden defects must be filed by the CLIENT within a period of two (2) years from discovery of the defect.

ARTICLE 13. RESPONSIBILITY

The VENDOR can on no account be held liable in the event of non-performance or poor performance of the contractual obligations attributable to the CLIENT, notably during the entering of his order. The VENDOR cannot be held responsible or considered as having failed to fulfil these obligations, for any delay or non-performance, when the cause of the delay or non-performance is linked to a case of force majeure as it is defined by case law of the French courts. It is moreover specified that the VENDOR does not control the websites that are directly or indirectly linked to the WEBSITE.
