Our Guarantees
- GUARANTEES
- Conditions. It is recalled that the legal guarantees of conformity and against hidden defects are provided below for the benefit of Customers who are consumers or non-professionals and assume normal use of the Products according to current practices. These guarantees apply outside of any commercial guarantee.
The consumer has a period of two years from the delivery of the goods to obtain the implementation of the legal guarantee of conformity in the event of the appearance of a lack of conformity. During this period, the consumer is only required to establish the existence of the lack of conformity and not the date on which it appeared. Where the contract for the sale of the goods provides for the continuous supply of digital content or a digital service for a period exceeding two years, the legal guarantee is applicable to this digital content or this digital service throughout the period of supply provided for. During this period, the consumer is only required to establish the existence of the lack of conformity affecting the digital content or the digital service and not the date on which it appeared. The legal guarantee of conformity entails an obligation for the professional, where applicable, to provide all updates necessary to maintain the conformity of the goods. The legal guarantee of conformity gives the consumer the right to repair or replacement of the goods within thirty days of their request, free of charge and without major inconvenience for them. If the good is repaired under the legal guarantee of conformity, the consumer benefits from a six-month extension of the initial guarantee. If the consumer requests the repair of the goods, but the seller imposes replacement, the legal guarantee of conformity is renewed for a period of two years from the date of replacement of the goods. The consumer may obtain a reduction in the purchase price by keeping the goods or terminate the contract by obtaining a full refund against return of the goods, if: 1° The professional refuses to repair or replace the goods; 2° The repair or replacement of the good occurs after a period of thirty days; 3° The repair or replacement of the good causes a major inconvenience for the consumer, in particular when the consumer definitively bears the costs of recovery or removal of the non-compliant good, or if he bears the costs of installation of the repaired or replacement good; 4° The non-conformity of the goods persists despite the seller's unsuccessful attempt to bring them into conformity. The consumer is also entitled to a reduction in the price of the goods or to the termination of the contract when the lack of conformity is so serious that it justifies the reduction in the price or the termination of the contract being immediate. The consumer is then not required to request the repair or replacement of the goods beforehand. The consumer is not entitled to rescission of the sale if the lack of conformity is minor. Any period of immobilization of the property for the purpose of its repair or replacement suspends the guarantee which remained to run until delivery of the repaired property. The rights mentioned above result from the application of articles L. 217-1 to L. 217-32 of the consumer code. Any seller who, in bad faith, obstructs the implementation of the legal guarantee of conformity is liable to a civil fine of up to 300,000 euros, which may be increased to 10% of average annual turnover ( Article L. 241-5 of the Consumer Code ). The consumer also benefits from the legal guarantee of hidden defects in application of articles 1641 to 1649 of the civil code , for a period of two years from the discovery of the defect. This guarantee gives the right to a price reduction if the good is kept or to a full refund against return of the good. |
