The Customer undertakes to strictly comply with the regulations applicable to alcohol consumption and shall not compel the Seller to violate them in whole or in part. Consequently, the Seller may legitimately refuse to deliver any alcoholic beverage or any beverage that encourages alcohol consumption to minors or to any person who is intoxicated, under the influence of medication, or manifestly aggressive.

The content of the message is the sole responsibility of the Customer and must not be likely to undermine public order or morality, provoke protests from third parties, or contravene the legal provisions in force.
The Seller may refuse to transcribe the Customer’s message if it appears inappropriate.
In any event, it is expressly agreed that in the event that the Seller is sued, for any reason whatsoever, in any country whatsoever, by a third party on the basis of material provided by the Customer, including text, the Customer undertakes to fully indemnify the Seller against any direct and/or indirect economic and financial consequences (including legal and defense costs) arising from such claims.

Items ordered by the Customer are delivered in mainland France and in the territories listed in the third paragraph of Article 1 to the address provided by the Customer when placing their order on the Website.
Except in special cases or if one or more Items are unavailable, the Items ordered are delivered in a single shipment.
Deliveries are made by independent carriers to the address specified by the Customer when placing the order and to which the carrier has easy access. The Customer is informed that carriers do not guarantee delivery to upper floors.
For deliveries in mainland France, the carrier will deliver parcels to the address specified by the Customer.
For deliveries outside mainland France, the carrier is required to deliver the order to a person designated by the Customer against signature: the carrier does not leave packages unattended.
In any event, in accordance with the provisions of Articles L. 216-1 and L. 216-4 of the Consumer Code, delivery and the risk of loss or damage to the Items shall be deemed to have been transferred to the Customer or to a third party designated by the Customer upon transfer of physical possession or control of the Item.
5.2. Shipping fees
The order includes delivery charges calculated based on the address provided by the Customer and the delivery method chosen by the Customer when placing the order.
In the event of a specific request by the Customer concerning the packaging or transport conditions of the Items ordered, duly accepted in writing by the Seller, the costs associated with this request will be subject to specific additional invoicing.
5.3. Delivery times
The processing and delivery times specified on the Website and/or when placing the order are for information purposes only.
However, in the event that the Items ordered have not been delivered within 30 days of the indicative delivery date, for any reason other than force majeure or the Customer’s fault, the sale may be terminated at the Customer’s written request under the conditions provided for in Articles L. 216-2, L. 216-3, and L. 241-4 of the French Consumer Code. The sums paid by the Customer will then be refunded to them no later than fourteen days after the date of termination of the contract, excluding any compensation or deduction.
The Seller shall not be held liable for any delay in delivery, and such delay shall not give rise to the payment of damages to the Customer.
5.4. Reserves
In the event of damage or theft of the Items upon delivery, the Customer must:
(i) write down specific, quantified, dated, and signed reservations on the delivery note. This note must be given to the carrier, and the Customer must keep a copy; and
(ii) notify the Seller of said reservations by sending a copy of said list to the Seller within 24 hours by registered mail with acknowledgment of receipt.
If these two cumulative formalities are not completed, the Items shall be deemed to have been delivered in good condition and no claim may be made by the Customer.
In the event that a delivery note has not been provided to the Customer, the latter must notify the Seller of any reservations by sending a registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt detailing said reservations within 24 hours. Failure to comply with this formality will result in the Items being deemed to have been delivered in good condition, and no claim may be made by the Customer.
In any event and regardless of the place of delivery of the Items, it is expressly agreed that, where applicable, the digital signature affixed by the Customer or by any person designated by the Customer on a tracking device (PDA) presented by the carrier upon delivery of the order shall be deemed authentic and may be validly invoked against the Customer in any proceedings for the purposes of evidence.
When the Customer has taken it upon themselves to use a carrier of their choice, delivery is deemed to have been made as soon as the Items ordered by the Seller are handed over to the carrier in accordance with the provisions of Articles L. 216-1 and L. 216-4 of the Consumer Code. The Customer then acknowledges that it is the carrier’s responsibility to make the delivery and that they have no recourse against the Seller in the event of non-delivery of the Items transported.
ARTICLE 6 – RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL
6.1. Principle
In accordance with the legal provisions in force, the Customer has a period of 14 days from receipt of the Item to exercise their right of withdrawal from the Seller, without having to justify their reasons or pay a penalty, for the purpose of exchange or refund, provided that the Items are returned in their original packaging and in perfect condition within 14 days of notifying the Seller of their decision to withdraw.
Returns must be made in their original condition and complete (packaging, accessories, instructions, etc.) so that they can be resold as new, accompanied by the purchase invoice. Damaged, soiled, or incomplete items will not be accepted.
The withdrawal process and form are available at the end of the terms and conditions of sale.
If the right of withdrawal is exercised within the aforementioned period, only the price of the returned Item(s) and the related delivery costs will be refunded; the return costs remain the responsibility of the Customer.
The exchange (subject to availability) or refund will be made within 14 days of the Seller receiving the Items returned by the Customer in accordance with the conditions set out in this article.
6.2. Exception
As an exception to the principle set out in Article 6.1 above, pursuant to Article L. 221-28 of the Consumer Code, the Customer does not have a right of withdrawal for contracts:
“1° The provision of services fully performed before the end of the withdrawal period and whose performance began after the consumer’s prior express agreement and express waiver of their right of withdrawal;
2° The supply of goods or services whose price depends on fluctuations in the financial market beyond the control of the professional and which are likely to occur during the withdrawal period;
3° The supply of goods made to the consumer’s specifications or clearly personalized;
4° The supply of goods that are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly;
5° The supply of goods which have been unsealed by the consumer after delivery and which cannot be returned for reasons of hygiene or health protection;
6° The supply of goods which, after delivery and due to their nature, are inseparably mixed with other items;
7° The supply of alcoholic beverages whose delivery is deferred beyond thirty days and whose value agreed upon at the conclusion of the contract depends on market fluctuations beyond the control of the professional;
8° Maintenance or repair work to be carried out urgently at the consumer’s home and expressly requested by them, within the limits of the spare parts and work strictly necessary to respond to the emergency;
9° The supply of audio or video recordings or computer software when they have been unsealed by the consumer after delivery;
10° The supply of a newspaper, periodical, or magazine, except for subscription contracts for such publications;
11° Concluded at a public auction;
12° Services involving accommodation, other than residential accommodation, transportation of goods, car rentals, catering, or leisure activities that must be provided on a specific date or during a specific period;
13° The supply of digital content not provided on a tangible medium, the performance of which has begun after the consumer’s prior express agreement and express waiver of their right of withdrawal.
Consequently, for the supply of Items that have been unsealed by the Customer after delivery and cannot be returned for reasons of hygiene or health protection, the Customer may not withdraw from the contract.
ARTICLE 7 – WARRANTY – SELLER’S LIABILITY
The Items sold by the Seller are automatically covered, without additional payment and independently of the right of withdrawal, in accordance with the legal provisions of:
– the legal guarantee of conformity referred to in Articles L. 217-4 to L. 217-14 of the Consumer Code; and
– the legal warranty against hidden defects mentioned in Articles 1641 to 1648 of the Civil Code, which render the Item sold unfit for use or diminish its use to such an extent that the Customer would not have purchased it or would have paid a lower price for it had they been aware of such defects.
The Seller shall not be held liable in the following cases:
– failure to comply with the laws of the country in which the Items are delivered; and
– in the event of misuse, use for professional purposes, negligence, or lack of maintenance on the part of the Customer, as well as in the event of normal wear and tear of the Item, accident, or force majeure.
In the event of non-conformity, the Customer may choose between repair and replacement of the Item (except in the cases provided for in Article L. 217-10 of the Consumer Code). However, the Seller may not proceed according to the Customer’s choice if this choice entails a cost that is clearly disproportionate to the other option, taking into account the value of the Item or the significance of the defect. In this case, the Seller is required to proceed, unless this is impossible, according to the option not chosen by the Customer.
In the event of a hidden defect, the Customer may choose to return the Item and receive a refund, or to keep the Item and receive a partial refund, as determined by experts.
