In the event of personalisation, we may need to make changes to the original specifications; in this case, we will discuss these changes before confirming your order.

To exercise this right to cancel, you should notify us here. When we receive this notification from you, the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products that have not been supplied and you may also be entitled to compensation, if applicable.

Refunds. If you are entitled to return the products in accordance with your rights under the Terms and Conditions or your statutory rights, we will refund the price you paid for the products, including the costs of delivery, using the same means of payment as you used to pay.

9. WARRANTIES

How to inform us in case of a problem. If you have any questions or complaints regarding the product, please contact us. You can contact our customer service team. You can also contact one of our employees in one of our stores.

Your legal rights. As a consumer, you have rights with respect to products that are defective or do not conform to their description. Nothing in these General Conditions affects these rights.

Legal guarantees. In accordance with the Consumer Code and the Civil Code, all products offered on the Site are subject to the legal guarantee of conformity provided for in Articles L.217-4 et seq. of the Consumer Code and to the guarantee of hidden defects provided for in Articles 1641 et seq. of the Civil Code. In application of these articles, non-compliant or defective products may be returned. It is recalled that within the framework of the legal guarantee of conformity, the consumer benefits from a period of two years from the delivery or handover of the product to take action against his seller, and that he can choose between the repair or replacement of the product, subject to the cost conditions provided for in Article L. 217-9 of the Consumer Code. The consumer is exempt from providing proof that the lack of conformity predates the purchase of the product. It is recalled that the consumer can also benefit from the guarantee against hidden defects of the thing sold within the meaning of Article 1641 of the Civil Code and that in this case, he can choose between the resolution of the sale or a reduction in the sale price in accordance with Article 1644 of the Civil Code.

Your obligation to return rejected products. If you wish to exercise your legal right to reject products, you must either return them to one of our stores or allow us to collect them. We will cover the cost of collection. Please contact customer service to obtain a return label or to arrange collection.


10. PRICES AND PAYMENT

Prices inclusive of VAT. The price of the product (including VAT) will be the price stated on the order page when you placed your order. If the rate of VAT changes between the date of your order and the date of delivery of the product, we may adjust the rate of VAT you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.

What happens if we have made a mistake in the price? We take every care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct and we check prices before accepting your order. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, there may be an error in the price of some of the products we sell on the Site. If, at the time you place your order, an error in the price occurs, and the actual price of the product is lower than the stated price, we will charge you the lower amount. If the actual price of the product at the date of your order is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you to ask for information before accepting your order. However, if we accept and process your order and a pricing error is obvious and could reasonably have been recognised by you, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods supplied to you.

When and how to pay. We accept payment by the various payment methods listed on the order page. We require you to pay for the products at the time you place your order, but we cannot charge your credit card until the products are dispatched. When you place an order, you confirm that the payment method you are using to pay us is yours and that you are authorised to place the order.

If you believe that an invoice or information on the order confirmation email or dispatch note is incorrect, please contact us promptly to let us know.


11. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Nothing in these Terms and Conditions excludes or limits our liability for (a) death or personal injury caused by our negligence; (b) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; (c) breach of your statutory rights in relation to the Products, including the right to receive and enjoy the benefit of the Products, provided that they are of satisfactory quality, consistent with their description and the information we have provided to you and any samples and models you have been able to examine and, fit for any particular purpose notified to us; (d) breach of the obligations of conformity and non-defect arising from the Consumer Code and the Civil Code; (e) any other matter for which we are not permitted to exclude or limit our liability under applicable law.

We will not be liable for any loss or damage that cannot reasonably be considered foreseeable and that arises out of or is in connection with the Terms and Conditions. Loss or damage is foreseeable if it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both you and we knew it might happen.

We only supply the products for your personal and private use. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purposes, we will not be liable to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity or goodwill.

Subject to the exclusions set out above, our liability in contract, tort (including negligence) or any other nature whatsoever arising out of or in connection with these Terms and Conditions will be strictly limited to the purchase price of the product purchased by you.
