The SELLER advises the CUSTOMER to read the General Terms and Conditions with each new order, the latest version of the said Terms and Conditions applying to any new order for PRODUCTS.

In order to be able to purchase a PRODUCT, the CLIENT must be at least 18 years of age and have legal capacity or, if he is a minor, be able to justify the agreement of his legal representatives.

The CLIENT will be invited to provide information enabling him/her to be identified by completing the form available on the WEBSITE. The sign (*) indicates the mandatory fields that must be filled in for the CLIENT's order to be processed by the SELLER. The CLIENT can check the status of his order on the WEBSITE.

The CUSTOMER may also contact the SELLER's sales department at any time by e-mail at the following address contact@smartwag.comto obtain information on the status of your order.

The information that the CUSTOMER provides to the SELLER when placing an order must be complete, accurate and up to date. The SELLER reserves the right to ask the CLIENT to confirm, by any appropriate means, its identity, eligibility and the information provided.

 

The SELLER undertakes to present the essential characteristics of the PRODUCTS (on the information sheets available on the WEBSITE) and the mandatory information that the CLIENT must receive by virtue of the applicable law (in these General Conditions).

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

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

Orders for PRODUCTS are placed directly on the WEBSITE. To place an order, the CLIENT must follow the steps described below (please note, however, that depending on the CLIENT's home page, the steps may differ slightly).

The CUSTOMER shall select the PRODUCT(s) of his choice by clicking on the PRODUCT(s) concerned and choosing the desired characteristics and quantities. Once the PRODUCT has been selected, the PRODUCT is placed in the CLIENT's basket. The CUSTOMER can then add as many PRODUCTS to his basket as he wishes.

Once the PRODUCTS have been selected and placed in the shopping basket, the CUSTOMER must click on the basket and check that the contents of the order are correct. If the CLIENT has not yet done so, he will then be asked to identify himself or to register.

Once the CUSTOMER has validated the contents of the basket and has identified/registered, an online form will be displayed to the CUSTOMER's attention, automatically completed and summarising the price, the applicable taxes and, where applicable, the delivery costs.

The CLIENT is invited to check the content of its order (including the quantity, characteristics and references of the PRODUCTS ordered, the billing address, the means of payment and the price) before validating its content.

The CLIENT may then proceed with the payment of the PRODUCTS by following the instructions on the WEBSITE and provide all the information necessary for the invoicing and DELIVERY of the PRODUCTS. Concerning the PRODUCTS for which options are available, these specific references appear when the right options have been selected. Orders placed must include all the information necessary for the proper processing of the order.

The CUSTOMER must also select the chosen mode of delivery.

For all intents and purposes, it is important to note that orders placed during the holiday periods (particularly at the end of the year) may result in greater risks of stock shortages than those placed during other periods of the year.

Once all the steps described above have been completed, a page will appear on the WEBSITE to acknowledge receipt of the CLIENT's order. A copy of the acknowledgement of receipt of the order is automatically sent to the CLIENT by e-mail, provided that the e-mail address communicated through the registration form is correct.

The SELLER shall not send any order confirmation by post or fax.

During the order procedure, the CUSTOMER must enter the information required for invoicing (the sign (*) will indicate the mandatory fields that must be filled in for the CUSTOMER's order to be processed by the SELLER).

In particular, the CLIENT must clearly indicate all information relating to the DELIVERY, in particular the exact address of DELIVERY, as well as any possible access code to the DELIVERY address.

The CUSTOMER must then specify the method of payment chosen.

Neither the order form that the CUSTOMER draws up online, nor the acknowledgement of receipt of the order that the SELLER sends to the CUSTOMER by e-mail shall constitute an invoice. Regardless of the method of order or payment used, the CLIENT will receive the original invoice upon DELIVERY of the PRODUCTS, inside the package.

The date of the order is the date on which the SELLER acknowledges receipt of the order online. The deadlines indicated on the WEBSITE only start to run from this date.

For all the PRODUCTS, the CLIENT will find on the WEBSITE prices displayed in euros, including all taxes, as well as the applicable delivery charges (depending on the weight of the package, excluding packaging and gifts, the DELIVERY address and the carrier or mode of transport chosen).

In particular, prices include value added tax (VAT) at the rate applicable on the date of order. Any change in the applicable rate may affect the price of the PRODUCTS from the date of entry into force of the new rate.

The applicable VAT rate is expressed as a percentage of the value of the PRODUCT sold.

The prices of the SELLER's suppliers are subject to change. Consequently, the prices indicated on the WEBSITE may change. They may also be modified in the event of special offers or sales.

The prices indicated are valid, except in the case of gross error. The applicable price is that indicated on the WEBSITE on the date the order is placed by the CLIENT.

The unavailability of a PRODUCT is in principle indicated on the page of the PRODUCT concerned. CUSTOMERS may also be informed of the restocking of a PRODUCT by the SELLER.

In any event, if the unavailability has not been indicated at the time of the order, the SELLER undertakes to inform the CLIENT without delay if the PRODUCT is unavailable.

The SELLER may, at the request of the CUSTOMER :
Either offer to ship all PRODUCTS at the same time as soon as out of stock PRODUCTS are available again,

Either proceed with a partial shipment of the PRODUCTS available at first, then with the shipment of the remainder of the order when the other PRODUCTS are available, subject to clear information concerning the additional transport costs that may be incurred,

Or offer an alternative PRODUCT of equivalent quality and price, accepted by the CUSTOMER.

If the CLIENT decides to cancel its order for unavailable PRODUCTS, it shall obtain a refund of all sums paid for the unavailable PRODUCTS within thirty (30) days of payment at the latest.

The terms and conditions of the right of withdrawal are set out in the "withdrawal policy", which is available in Annexe 1 of the present and accessible at the bottom of each page of the SITE via a hypertext link.

 

The CLIENT may pay for its PRODUCTS on line on the WEBSITE according to the means proposed by the SELLER.

The CUSTOMER guarantees the SELLER that it holds all the authorisations required to use the chosen means of payment.

The SELLER will take all necessary measures to guarantee the security and confidentiality of the data transmitted online in the context of online payment on the WEBSITE.

It is therefore specified that all payment information provided on the SITE is transmitted to the bank of the SITE and is not processed on the SITE.

7.2. Date of payment

In the event of a single payment by credit card, the CLIENT's account will be debited as soon as the order for PRODUCTS is placed on the WEBSITE.

In the event of partial DELIVERY, the total amount will be debited from the CUSTOMER's account at the earliest when the first parcel is dispatched. If the CLIENT decides to cancel its order for unavailable PRODUCTS, the refund will be made in accordance with the last paragraph of Article 5.5 of these General Terms and Conditions.

If the bank refuses to debit a card or other means of payment, the CUSTOMER must contact the SELLER's Customer Service Department in order to pay for the order by any other valid means of payment.

In the event that, for any reason whatsoever, opposition, refusal or otherwise, the transmission of the flow of money owed by the CUSTOMER proves impossible, the order will be cancelled and the sale automatically terminated.

Any contract concluded with the CUSTOMER corresponding to an order amounting to more than 120 euros including all taxes will be archived by the SELLER for a period of ten (10) years in accordance with Article L. 134-2 of the Consumer Code.

The SELLER agrees to archive this information in order to monitor transactions and to produce a copy of the contract at the CLIENT's request.

In the event of a dispute, the SELLER will have the opportunity to prove that his electronic tracking system is reliable and that it guarantees the integrity of the transaction.

The SELLER remains the owner of the PRODUCTS delivered until they have been fully paid for by the CLIENT.

The above provisions do not prevent the transfer to the CLIENT, at the time of receipt by it, or by a third party designated by it other than the carrier, of the risks of loss or damage to the PRODUCTS that are the subject of the reservation of ownership, as well as the risks of damage that they may cause.

The terms of DELIVERY of the PRODUCTS are provided for in the "delivery policy" referred to in Annexe 2 of the present and accessible at the bottom of each page of the SITE via a hypertext link.

The PRODUCTS will be packed in accordance with the transport regulations in force, in order to guarantee maximum protection for the PRODUCTS during DELIVERY. CUSTOMERS undertake to comply with the same standards when returning PRODUCTS under the conditions set out in Annex 1 - Withdrawal Policy.

Article L.211-4 of the Consumer Code The seller is obliged to deliver goods in conformity with the contract and is liable for any lack of conformity existing at the time of delivery. It is also liable for defects of conformity resulting from packaging, assembly instructions or installation when this was made at its expense by the contract or was carried out under its responsibility. »

Article L.211-5 of the Consumer Code To be in conformity with the contract, the good must :

1° Be fit for the use usually expected of a similar property and, where applicable :

- correspond to the description given by the seller and possess the qualities that the seller has presented to the buyer in the form of a sample or model;

- present the qualities that a buyer can legitimately expect in the light of public statements made by the seller, the producer or his representative, particularly in advertising or labelling;

2° Or have the characteristics defined by mutual agreement between the parties or be suitable for any special use sought by the buyer, brought to the knowledge of the seller and accepted by the latter.

The SELLER is obliged to deliver a PRODUCT that is in conformity, i.e. suitable for the expected use of a similar good and corresponding to the description given on the WEBSITE. This conformity also assumes that the PRODUCT has the qualities that a buyer may legitimately expect in view of the public statements made by the SELLER, including in advertisements and on labels.

In this context, the SELLER may be held liable for defects of conformity existing at the time of delivery and for defects of conformity resulting from the packaging, assembly instructions or installation when the latter has been put at his expense or has been carried out under his responsibility.

The action resulting from the lack of conformity is time-barred after two (2) years from the delivery of the PRODUCT. (Article L.211-12 of the French Consumer Code)

In the event of a lack of conformity, the CLIENT may request the replacement or repair of the PRODUCT, at its discretion. However, if the cost of the CUSTOMER's choice is clearly disproportionate compared to the other possible option, taking into account the value of the PRODUCT or the importance of the defect, the SELLER may make a refund, without following the option chosen by the CUSTOMER.

In the event that a replacement or repair is impossible, the SELLER undertakes to return the price of the PRODUCT within 30 days upon receipt of the returned PRODUCT and in exchange for the return of the PRODUCT by the CLIENT to the following address Rue Principale 25, Sembrancher, Switzerland or 371, route de Mézier 74350, Copponex, France.

Finally, the CLIENT is exempt from providing proof of the existence of the lack of conformity of the PRODUCT during the six (6) months following the delivery of the goods.

It is specified that this legal guarantee of conformity applies independently of the commercial guarantee granted, where applicable, on the PRODUCTS.

The SELLER is bound by the guarantee on account of hidden defects in the PRODUCT sold which render it unfit for the use for which it is intended, or which so diminish this use that the CUSTOMER would not have acquired it, or would only have paid a lower price for it, if he had known about them. (Article 1641 of the Civil Code)

This guarantee allows the CLIENT who can prove the existence of a latent defect to choose between reimbursement of the price of the PRODUCT if it is returned and reimbursement of part of its price if the PRODUCT is not returned.

In the event that a replacement or repair is impossible, the SELLER undertakes to return the price of the PRODUCT within 30 days upon receipt of the returned PRODUCT and in exchange for the return of the PRODUCT by the CLIENT to the following address Rue Principale 25, Sembrancher, Switzerland. The action resulting from redhibitory defects must be brought by the CLIENT within two (2) years from the discovery of the defect. (Paragraph 1 of Article 1648 of the Civil Code)

The SELLER may under no circumstances be held liable in the event of non-performance or poor performance of the contractual obligations attributable to the CUSTOMER, in particular when entering the order.

The SELLER may not be held responsible, or considered to have failed hereunder, for any delay or non-performance, when the cause of the delay or non-performance is related to a case of force majeure as defined by the jurisprudence of the French Courts and Tribunals.
