If the ordered Products have not been delivered within a period of 30 days after the indicative delivery date, for any reason other than force majeure or the fault of the Customer, the sale may be canceled at the written request of the Customer under the conditions provided for in Articles L 216-2, L 216-3 and L241-4 of the Consumer Code.

Deliveries are ensured by an independent carrier, to the address mentioned by the Customer at the time of the order and to which the carrier can easily access.
When the Customer has taken care of using a carrier of their choice, the delivery is deemed to have been made as soon as the Seller hands over the ordered Products to the carrier who has accepted them without reservation. The Customer therefore acknowledges that it is the carrier's responsibility to carry out the delivery and has no recourse against the Seller in the event of a failure to deliver the transported goods.
In the event of a special request from the Customer concerning the packaging or transport conditions of the ordered products, duly accepted in writing by the Seller, the related costs will be the subject of an additional specific invoice, based on a quote previously accepted in writing by the Customer.
The Customer is required to check the condition of the delivered products. They have a period of 24 hours from the delivery to make claims through the contact form, accompanied by all relevant supporting documents (photos in particular). After this period and in the absence of compliance with these formalities, the Products will be deemed to conform and free from any apparent defect, and no claim can be validly accepted by the Seller.
The Seller will refund or replace, as soon as possible and at its expense, the delivered Products whose non-conformities or apparent or hidden defects have been duly proven by the Customer, under the conditions provided for in Articles L 217-4 and following of the Consumer Code and those provided for in these General Terms and Conditions.
The transfer of the risks of loss and deterioration related to them will only be made when the Customer physically takes possession of the Products. The Products therefore travel at the risk and peril of the Seller unless the Customer has chosen the carrier themselves. In this case, the risks are transferred at the time of delivery of the goods to the carrier.
ARTICLE 6 – Transfer of Ownership
The transfer of ownership of the Products from the Seller to the Customer will only be realized after full payment of the price by the latter, regardless of the delivery date of said Products.
