2. Application and Acceptance of the Terms and Conditions of Sale

The Website allows you to order, online, from the company Manufacture JD, a selection of Joseph Duclos branded products, hereinafter the "Product(s)".

Joseph Duclos Products are intended exclusively for sale to end consumers, whether natural or legal persons, to the exclusion of all retailers or intermediaries acting on behalf of retailers. Therefore, the customer represents that they are acting as an end consumer and that they do not intend to resell, directly or indirectly, the Joseph Duclos Products in a commercial capacity, this undertaking being a material condition for JOSEPH DUCLOS.

The customer certifies that they have the legal capacity to enter into the commitments provided for herein.

JOSEPH DUCLOS may update these Terms of Sale from time to time. You can check the current version of the Terms of Sale at any time by going to the "Terms and Conditions of Sale" section of the Website. The contract of sale between you and JOSEPH DUCLOS will include the terms and conditions of your order and the terms and conditions of sale applicable at the time of your purchase, which apply to the exclusion of any other terms and conditions or any conditions implied by trade, customer or business practice.

In addition, every time you make a purchase on the Website, you will be asked to confirm your acceptance of these Terms of Sale in force at the time of placing your order. These terms and conditions can be viewed before and at the time you are asked to confirm your acceptance of them. To confirm your acceptance, you will need to tick the box "I accept the Terms of Sale (new window), and consent to the processing of my data in accordance with the Privacy Policy of Joseph Duclos". You can consult the Joseph Duclos Privacy Policy at any time by clicking on the "Privacy Policy" link.

3. How to Order

If you have any questions about the Products or your orders, you can contact our customer service (hereinafter "Customer Service") by clicking on the "Contact Us" link or by calling us on +33 (0)1 88 40 29 15, from Monday to Saturday (excluding public holidays), from 10 am to 7 pm.

The Website allows you to order online via the Internet from JOSEPH DUCLOS, a selection of Products for collection or delivery under the conditions specified in the "Delivery and Collection Area" section.

You can also order by phone by contacting our Customer Service.

The Website does not allow you to place special orders consisting, particularly, of the creation of a Product that does not or no longer exists in the Joseph Duclos collection, or of the adaptation/modification of a Product from the Joseph Duclos collections by JOSEPH DUCLOS. These Terms of Sale do not, therefore, apply to special orders. For any special order, please contact a member of our sales team by clicking the "Book an Appointment" link in the menu or on the customisation page, or by calling us on +33 (0)1 88 40 29 15, from Monday to Saturday (excluding public holidays), from 10 am to 7 pm.

However, these Terms of Sale will apply to any purchase of products that are customised at your request (see Article 4.2 below).

4. Product Availability
4.1 Provisions Specific to Pre-Orders

A pre-order means the possibility for the customer to reserve certain Products featured on the Website before their release date (hereinafter "Pre-Order").Pre-orders will be delivered within 3 months.

4.2 Provisions Specific to Customisation

Customisation means the possibility for the customer to adapt or customise certain Products from the Joseph Duclos collections (hereinafter "Custom Product").

4.3 Product Availability

Product offers are valid while stocks last because, at the time of order validation, there may be a difference between the stock available electronically and the actual physical stock (for example in the case of simultaneous orders for the same product by several customers). The sale is therefore subject to the availability of Products in stock. In addition, Joseph Duclos reserves title to the Products until payment has been received for the Products in accordance with the provisions of Article 7 below.

The date on which a pre-ordered Product will be available will be expressly indicated on the product sheet. If the availability date changes, you will be immediately informed by email and/or via your customer account.

In the event that a Product is unavailable after you have placed your order, we will inform you by email or telephone as soon as possible, with the possibility of either ordering another Product featured on the Website as a replacement, or cancelling your order.

JOSEPH DUCLOS shall not be held liable in the event that Products are out of stock or unavailable.

JOSEPH DUCLOS reserves the right to change the Products offered on the Website and/or by telephone at any time and without notice.

To ensure a better quality of service and availability of our Products for all our customers, JOSEPH DUCLOS reserves the right to limit the quantity of Products that a customer may purchase, in accordance with applicable legal provisions and particularly Article L. 121-11 of the French Consumer Code.

However, if you receive the Product after using this option, you must return it according to the terms of return provided in Article 11 below.

You must check the conformity of the Products at the time of delivery and indicate the faults detected (parcel opened, damaged product, etc.), if possible on the delivery slip, in the form of handwritten reservations complete with your signature.

10. Right of Withdrawal

10.1. Right of Withdrawal and Withdrawal Period

In accordance with French and European law, the consumer has a period of fourteen (14) days from the delivery date of the Product to exercise their right of withdrawal, without having to justify their reasons or pay any penalty, in order to obtain an exchange or refund, provided that the Products are returned in their original packaging and in perfect condition within fourteen (14) days of notifying the vendor of the consumer's decision to withdraw.

However, as part of its general return policy (to request a refund or exchange), JOSEPH DUCLOS allows you to withdraw for a period of thirty (30) days from the delivery date of the Products rather than fourteen (14), without having to justify your reasons or paying any penalty. Thereafter, you will no longer be able to exercise your right of withdrawal.

10.2. Exercising the Right of Withdrawal

We give you the possibility of filling in and submitting your declaration of withdrawal online by logging in to your customer account. You will then promptly receive a confirmation of your withdrawal by email.

You can also send your request to withdraw by contacting our Customer Service or use the model withdrawal form available in the appendix to these Terms of Sale.

10.3. Restriction on the Right of Withdrawal

In accordance with Article L. 221-28 of the French Consumer Code, your right of withdrawal cannot be exercised for orders for (i) perfume products that have been opened, unsealed or used (including when the outer transparent film has been removed), for hygiene reasons, or for (ii) custom Products, unless said Products are returned because they are defective.

10.4. Consequence of the Right of Withdrawal

In the context of exercising the right of withdrawal or in the event of a Product non-conformity, you may return the Product(s) purchased and ask for an exchange or refund in the manner described in Article 11 below.

11. Return, Exchange and Refund Policy

11.1. To the Josephduclos.com Website

11.1.a) Free Return

Within the framework of exercising the right of withdrawal, Products must be returned in their original condition and packaging (the box and if possible the shipping carton), together with the purchase invoice or a copy in case of partial return.

In the case of an exchange or request for a refund, the return of a Product is free of charge. You must return the Products to us via our carrier, within thirty (30) days of your declaration of withdrawal, using our system of prepaid return labels. Log in to your customer account and click on "Request a Refund" or "Request an Exchange" in the "Your Orders" section.

If you cannot or do not wish to use the prepaid return label service, please contact our Customer Service which will register your return. You can then return your parcel to the address provided by our Customer Service, within a maximum of thirty (30) days.

In this case, we strongly advise you to take out the insurance provided by your carrier as you will be exclusively liable for the return of the Products. JOSEPH DUCLOS will not be liable for any loss, return to the wrong address or delayed delivery of a Product that you wish to return to the Website, insofar as you alone will bear the risks of the transportation that you choose.

JOSEPH DUCLOS undertakes to reimburse you for the cost of standard delivery including parcel tracking. You should, therefore, insert the delivery invoice with the tracking number in your return parcel.

In the event of an exchange, the standard delivery charges of the first order will be refunded and the costs of the second delivery will be charged according to the delivery method chosen.

Under no circumstances will it be possible to give you a credit note to use on the Website or in a Joseph Duclos store.

We do not currently offer the possibility of requesting an exchange or refund for Products purchased in a JOSEPH DUCLOS store via the Website.

11.1.b) Exchange

If you request an exchange, please specify in the dedicated field the replacement Product(s) you wish to receive for your order.

If you would like to have your chosen product(s) set aside for you, please contact our Customer Service.

If the value of the Product(s) chosen as a replacement is greater than the value of the returned Product(s), you will be required to pay the difference in price by credit or debit card using our secure payment service. Please note that we are unable to accept PayPal payments for the payment of any price difference following an exchange.

If the value of the Product(s) chosen as a replacement is less than the value of the returned Product(s), the price difference will be refunded to you by JOSEPH DUCLOS (please note that for gifts, only the customer who purchased the gift may request the refund and have their bank account re-credited).

In the event of an exchange, the delivery charges of the first delivery will be refunded, but the delivery charges of the second shipment will be charged according to the delivery method chosen.

Please note that the exchange will take place subject to available stock, within seventy-two (72) working hours of receipt of the product(s).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, custom Products cannot be exchanged.

11.1.c) Refund

If you request a refund, it will be made within seventy-two (72) working hours of receipt of the Product(s). You will be sent a confirmation email. The refund, including the delivery charges of the initial order, will then be made using the same payment method as the one you used at the time of ordering and it will be made in the same currency as the currency used to pay for your order.

Please note, however, that your bank may take up to ten (10) business days to process a refund to your card, depending on processing times. This varies between card issuers and JOSEPH DUCLOS is not able to speed up this process which is beyond our control.

11.1.d) Gifts Ordered on the Website

Third-party recipients of gifts ordered from the Website can only exchange the Products via the Website return procedure. Consequently, only the customer who purchased the gift will be able to request a refund within the framework of their right of withdrawal (insofar as only the bank account of the person who ordered the product can be re-credited).

In this case, only an exchange for a Product of equivalent or higher value (the difference in price must be paid by the third-party recipient of the gift) is possible. The third-party recipient should contact our Customer Service.

11.1.e) Specific Products ordered on the Website and Orders paid for with PayPal

11.1.e) (i) Return Policy Applicable to Perfume Products

Perfume products must not be opened and must be returned in their original packaging with the tamper-protection sticker unopened. In the event of return of a defective or damaged Product, the customer must ensure that the bottle is still airtight; if it is not, they should contact our Customer Service.

11.1.f) Return, Exchange and Refund of Orders paid for with PayPal

If an exchange is requested for an order paid for with PayPal, your credit or debit card details will be required if the value of the new order is higher than the original order. Any additional amount due over and above the amount of the initial order can only be paid by bank card. We cannot accept payment by PayPal for the additional amount due in respect of an exchange order. If the value of the new order is equal to the initial order, you will not need to provide your bank card details and no new payment will be required.

If you request a refund of an order paid for by Paypal, your PayPal account will be credited with the amount of the initial order.

11.2. To JOSEPH DUCLOS Stores

12. Legal and Commercial Warranties

12.1. Legal Warranties

The Products sold by JOSEPH DUCLOS are subject to the legal warranties provided for by Articles L.217-4 to L.217-14 of the French Consumer Code and by Articles 1641 to 1648 of the French Civil Code, to the exclusion of all other warranties:

•  Legal Warranty of Conformity:

JOSEPH DUCLOS shall deliver a Product conforming to the contract and free from non-conformities upon delivery of said Product, meaning that the Product will be fit for the purpose normally expected of a similar type of good and will have the characteristics described at the time of the sale. JOSEPH DUCLOS shall also be liable for any non-conformity affecting the packaging, and the assembly or installation instructions when such assembly or installation was covered by the contract or carried out under its responsibility. This warranty shall only apply if you make the request within two years of delivery of the goods. Any non-conformity appearing within twenty-four (24) months of delivery is deemed to exist at the time of delivery, unless proven otherwise.

You may choose between the repair and replacement of a Product unless either option would entail a manifestly excessive cost for JOSEPH DUCLOS. If the Product cannot be repaired or replaced, you may either obtain a refund of the price paid and return the Product, or keep the Product and obtain a partial refund of the price, unless the non-conformity is minor. The Product will be repaired, replaced or refunded at no expense to you and this will not prevent the award of damages in the event that you are entitled. The legal warranty of conformity applies independently of the commercial warranty mentioned in Article 12.2 below.

• Legal Warranty against Hidden Defects:

JOSEPH DUCLOS will deliver a Product free from hidden defects rendering it unfit for its intended use, or which so impair such use that you would not have purchased it, or would only have paid a lesser price if you had been aware thereof. This warranty shall only apply if you make the request within two (2) years of detecting the defect.

In the event of a hidden defect, you can choose either to return the Product and obtain a refund of the price and expenses incurred by the sale, or keep the Product and obtain a partial refund of the price. In all cases, it will be for you to prove that the conditions of the warranty are met.

In the event of any non-conformity or hidden defect, you must return the Products to JOSEPH DUCLOS by contacting our Customer Service.

12.2. Commercial Warranty

Some Products sold on the Website are covered by a commercial warranty in addition to the legal warranties mentioned in the previous article. The content and terms and conditions of this commercial warranty are available on the Website in the "Contact Us" section and in the Product FAQ. You can read these terms before purchasing any Product to which this warranty applies.

In accordance with Article L.111-3 paragraph 1 of the French Consumer Code, JOSEPH DUCLOS confirms that no period of availability of spare parts necessary to use the Products is guaranteed. However, JOSEPH DUCLOS will make every effort to satisfy its Customers if one or more spare parts are requested.

15. Limitation of Liability and Force Majeure

Under no circumstances shall JOSEPH DUCLOS incur any liability for any harm caused other than by the failure of JOSEPH DUCLOS to fulfil any of its obligations.

JOSEPH DUCLOS shall not incur any liability in the event that the non-fulfilment of its obligations is due either to the unforeseeable and unavoidable act of a third party to the Terms of Sale, particularly during delivery, or to a force majeure event.

Similarly, JOSEPH DUCLOS shall not incur any liability for any consequences or damage inherent in using the Internet, particularly a service interruption, external intrusion or the presence of computer viruses.

In the case of a fortuitous or force majeure event that prevents or delays the supply of Products, the fulfilment by JOSEPH DUCLOS of its obligations relating to the supply of such Products would be suspended.

JOSEPH DUCLOS will notify the customer of the occurrence of any fortuitous or force majeure event within two (2) days of said occurrence.

When the fulfilment of its obligations by JOSEPH DUCLOS is suspended for more than sixty (60) days, the customer may terminate the order and the Vendor will then refund the corresponding amount, in accordance with these Terms of Sale.

It is expressly agreed that the occurrence of impediments directly related to COVID-19 and relating to the supply, manufacture, delivery, forwarding and transportation of the Products shall constitute a force majeure event within the meaning of these Terms of Sale.

16. Severability

Should any provision of these Terms of Sale be cancelled, such invalidity shall not affect the validity of the other provisions of these Terms which shall remain in force between the Parties.

17. Non-Waiver

Any forbearance by either Party in availing themselves of a commitment by the other Party to fulfil any obligation mentioned herein shall not be construed as a waiver of the obligation in question for the future.

18. Governing Law – Disputes

These Terms of Sale shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of France. In the event of any dispute arising out of or in connection with the application and/or interpretation of these Terms of Sale, you may contact our Customer Service (see Article 3).
