Article 5 - ORDERS MANAGEMENT

The Operator strives to ensure optimum availability of its Products. Product offers are valid while stocks last. If, despite the Operator's best efforts, a Product turns out to be unavailable after the Customer has ordered, the Operator will inform the Customer by email as soon as possible, and the Customer will have the choice between:

• The delivery of a Product of quality and a price equivalent to that initially ordered, or
• Reimbursement of the price of the Product ordered within thirty (30) days of payment of the sums already paid at the latest.

Article 6 - TERMS OF PAYMENT AND SECURITY

The Customer expressly acknowledges that any order placed on the Site is an order with an obligation to pay, which requires the payment of a price against the supply of the Product ordered.
In any event, the Operator reserves the right to check the validity of the payment, before shipping the order, by all necessary means.

The Operator uses the Webflow e-commerce solution, which itself uses the Stripe secure payment solution. Orders can be paid using any of the following payment methods:

• Payment by credit card.
  Payment is made directly on the Stripe platform's secure banking servers of the Stripe platform, the customer's bank details not passing through the Site. The bank details provided during payment are protected by an SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption process. In this way, this information is not accessible to third parties.The customer's order is recorded and validated upon acceptance of payment by the bank.The customer's account will only be debited for the corresponding amount when (i) the credit card data used has been verified and (ii) the debit debt has been accepted by the bank that issued the credit card. The inability to debit the amounts due will result in the immediate nullity of the sale. The bank card may, in particular, be refused if it has expired, if it has reached the maximum amount of expenditure with the customer on the right or if the data entered is incorrect.
• Payment by electronic wallet (Paypal type). The customer already has an account on the electronic wallet used by the operator. The customer can use this account and pay for his order safely without providing his bank details.
• Payment by bank transfer. The Customer can pay for his order by bank transfer via the secured Stripe platform.  Orders are registered within 48 hours of receipt of the transfer.

Where applicable, the order validated by the customer will only be considered effective when the secure bank payment center has given its agreement to the transaction.As part of the control procedures, the operator may have to ask the customer for all the parts necessary to finalize his order. These parts will not be used for purposes other than these.

It is agreed that apart from the reimbursement of the price of the unavailable Product, if this option is requested by the Customer, the Operator is not liable for any cancellation compensation unless the non-performance of the contract is personally attributable to him. With the exception of any indication to the contrary in these General Conditions and without prejudice to the right of withdrawal provided for by applicable law, the Customer's orders are firm and final.

When placing an order, the Customer must select the chosen Products, add them to his basket, indicating the selected Products and the desired quantities.

The contractual information relating to the order (including, in particular the order number) will be confirmed by e-mail in good time and at the latest at the time of delivery. The Operator strongly advises the Customer to print and / or archive this order confirmation on a reliable and durable medium as proof. A digital payment receipt will be sent to the customer within 24 hours of ordering. A digital or printed invoice will be sent to the customer when the order is shipped. The Operator also advises the Customer to print and / or archive this invoice on a reliable and durable medium as proof.

Any email that will be sent to the Customer as part of an order will be sent to the email address that the Customer provides when confirming his order.

Delivery means the transfer to the Customer of physical possession or control of the Product.

The Operator, at its sole discretion, uses different delivery or delivery methods depending on the nature of the product and the destination in particular. For information, the operator mainly uses the services of DHL.

The shipping costs are those specified during the finalization of the order and are accepted by the validation of the order.
