The description of the Services and/or Products presents the essential characteristics of the Services and/or Products, in accordance with article L. 111-1 of the French Consumer Code. These descriptions are designed to provide you with the fullest possible information on these characteristics, without being exhaustive. The photographs, drawings and descriptions of the Products and/or Services are provided for information purposes only and are not binding on us.

We invite you to refer to the information and instructions for use that appear on the packaging, labels and accompanying documents. We cannot be held responsible for any damage resulting from non-compliance with these instructions for use of the Products and/or Services provided on our website.
Buying Products
-
All purchases of Products are subject to the Conditions applicable at the time of purchase.
(2) When purchasing a Product: (i) it is your responsibility to read the full list of items before committing to purchase them; and (ii) placing an order on the Site (by completing the checkout process by pressing the "Buy" button or a similar button) may lead to a legally binding contract for the purchase of the relevant Product, unless otherwise stated in these Terms.
(3) You can choose from our selection of Products and place the products you intend to purchase in a basket by clicking on the relevant button. The prices we charge are shown on the Site. We reserve the right to change our prices or correct any pricing errors that may inadvertently occur, at any time. These changes do not affect the price of Products that you have already purchased. At checkout, you will be presented with a summary of all the Products you have placed in your basket. This summary includes the essential characteristics of each Product as well as the total price of all Products, the applicable value added tax (VAT) and delivery costs, as applicable. The payment page also gives you the opportunity to check and, if necessary, modify or remove Products, or modify quantities. If necessary, you can also identify and correct input errors by using the edit function before making your order definitively binding. Any delivery time indicated applies from receipt of your payment of the purchase price. By pressing the "Buy" button, you are placing a binding order to purchase the Products advertised at the price and with the delivery charges indicated. To complete the order process by clicking on the "Buy" button, you must first accept these Terms as legally binding for your order by ticking the relevant box.
(4) We will then send you a confirmation of receipt of your order by e-mail, in which your order will again be summarised and which you will be able to print or save using the corresponding function. Please note that this is an automatic message which merely documents the fact that we have received your order. It does not indicate that we have accepted your order.
(5) The legally binding contract for the purchase of the Products is only concluded when we send you a notice of acceptance by e-mail or deliver the Products to you. We reserve the right not to accept your order. This does not apply in cases where we offer a payment method for your order and you have chosen it, if a payment process is initiated immediately after submission of your order (for example, an electronic money transfer, or instant bank transfer via PayPal, or other similar payment method). In this case, the legally binding agreement is concluded when you complete the order process, as described above, by pressing the "Buy" button.
(6) You may save your preferred payment method for future use. In this case, we will store your payment details in accordance with the standards applicable in our industry (e.g. PCI DSS). You will be able to identify your stored card by its last four digits.

A hidden defect implies that it renders the Product unfit for the use for which it is intended, or that it hinders its use in such a way that you would not have purchased it or would have paid a lower price for it if you had been aware of the defect. This also implies that you did not know that the defect existed when you purchased the Product.

You may request that the Product be repaired or replaced, except in accordance with the provisions of article L. 217-9 paragraph 2 of the French Consumer Code.
