If you wish to place an order, you have to select the products and the quantity of products that you wish to order and add them in your basket by clicking on the button “SHOP”. Please note that you can consult the summary of your order at anytime by clicking on the icon of your basket and/or during the check out process. After having filled your basket, you are invited to click on the button "PROCEED TO CHECK OUT" and provide your e-mail address, the billing address, the desired delivery address and the information relating to the chosen method of delivery, the amount of any delivery charges being specified at this stage.

You can also contact the Customer Service to benefit from the Remote ordering and payment service. In this case, you have to indicate to the Customer Service the products available on the Website and the quantity that you wish to order. The products are added to the basket by the Customer Service. Once the basket is filled, the Customer Service finalizes your order according to your choices and indications (choice of samples, packaging personalization option, verification of your delivery address and any information required to complete your order).

Before clicking on the "PAY AND ORDER" button, you have the possibility to :

- check or request Customer Service to check the details of your order and its total price,
- correct or request Customer Service to correct any errors made in entering the data or modify the order by returning to the previous steps or by browsing the Website.

- click or give your consent to Customer Service to click on the button "PAY AND ORDER" to proceed to the secure payment of your order. Upon authorization of the debit of your bank account by the bank, your order is transmitted to PCD.

Our acceptance of your order will take place only when we send you an order confirmation email at the email address provided by you and you accept by placing an order the use of email to receive our confirmation of your order. At this point, a contract for the sale and purchase of the ordered products will come into existence between you and us. Theconfirmation email will show all details of products purchased, delivery addresses, billing address, delivery option, delivery costs, your unique reference number, the total sum deducted from your credit or debit card account, packaging options and will contain a pdf version of the effective Terms. We recommend that you keep this email for your records.

It will be archived for a period not exceeding the period required to fulfil the purposes for which it was archived.


If you have any questions about an order, please contact our Customer Service using the contact details in article 1. It will help us if you can tell us the order number whenever you contact us about your order.


If we are unable to accept your order we will inform you of this by email and will not charge you for the products. This might be because:

- the product is out of stock,
- payment agencies including the payment service provider used by PCD to detect credit card frauds refused the authorization of payment per credit/debit card,
- we have identified an error in the price, as provided below, or description of the product,
- you have exceeded our Maximum Purchase Policy set out below,
- we need to deal with technical problems with the product or make minor technical changes
- we need to update the product to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements.

Please note that we are unable to process orders to a P.O Box address.


3.2. Price and Payment


The price of the products (which includes VAT) is displayed throughout your online journey, either visible in the basket on the top banner of the website or on the checkout pages when you place an order. To the extent permitted by law, if there is a change in the rate of VAT between your order date and the date we supply the products, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the products in full before the change took effect.

We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the products advised to you is correct but in the unlikely event that the products are incorrectly priced, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any products provided to you.

Products shall be paid in EUR.


You can pay for products using the following payment options:


CREDIT / DEBIT CARDS ACCEPTED:

- MasterCard
- Visa


For payment of orders placed through the Remote ordering and payment service, you can only use these debit/credit cards. You have to enter your card number, its expiry date and the visual cryptogram into the secure payment system via a link you receive by e-mail to the address provided by you.

WE'RE SORRY, WE DO NOT ACCEPT ANY OTHER TYPES OF PAYMENT.

We are sorry, but at this time, we do not offer gift certificates or gift cards.

We will charge your credit or debit card at the time of dispatch of the order.

Please be informed that you shall bear all compulsory taxes, fees, bank charges if any.

Secure payment is made through a service provider: PSP Cybersource which complies with security standards.


IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

For your security and to avoid any fraudulent transactions, your billing name and address must match that of the credit card used for payment. We reserve the right to cancel any order that does not match these criteria.


3.3. Maximum Purchase Policy


Products are sold on a retail basis to individuals for personal use only. As a result, for the purpose of protecting PCD's brand image and distribution system, we limit any orders to no more than five (5) units of any item per order.

In any case, you declare that you are acting as a consumer and that you exclude any intention of direct or indirect resale of one or several products for commercial purposes.


3.4. Order Cancellations


Occasionally, orders or parts of an order are cancelled by our system for various reasons. Some reasons are:

- products(s) not available;
- difficulty in processing payment information;

- cannot deliver to address provided;
- duplicate order was placed.

If you wish to change or cancel your order prior to dispatch please call our Customer Service(see contact details in article 1) with your order number, to discuss what practical options are available to you. Please note as we generally process orders very quickly and dispatch orders within 1-2 days therefore it may not be possible to prevent your order from being dispatched.

Delivery costs will be indicated to you before your validation of the order.

You will be responsible for the products once they have been delivered to the address you have provided.


You own the products once we have received payment in full.


5. Your rights to end the contract


You may be entitled to end your contract with PCD and return the products, but your right to end the contract will depend on the products you have purchased, whether you have simply changed your mind, whether there is anything wrong with the products we have supplied, how we are performing and when you decide to end the contract.

Furthermore, all the products supplied by us benefit from the legal guarantee of conformityand from the legal warranty against hidden defects.


Legal guarantee of conformity

Articles L217-3 to L217-20 of the French consumer Code regulate the legal guarantee of conformity. We also inform you of the existence of statutory warranty of conformity of goods within your country of residence. Please find here below for your information the translation of some of the articles of the French consumer Code:

Article L217-3 of the French consumer Code: “The seller shall deliver goods that conform to the contract and to the criteria set forth in Article L. 217-5.

He is responsible for the defects of conformity existing at the time of the delivery of the good within the meaning of article L. 216-1, which appear within two years as from this one. (…)

The seller shall also be liable, during the same time period, for any lack of conformity resulting from the packaging, the assembly instructions or the installation when the latter was made his responsibility by the contract or was carried out under his responsibility, or when the incorrect installation, carried out by the consumer as provided for in the contract, is due to shortcomings or errors in the installation instructions provided by the seller.

This warranty period applies without prejudice to articles 2224 and following of the French Civil Code. The starting point of the limitation period for the consumer's action is the day on which the consumer becomes aware of the lack of conformity.”

Article L217-4 of the French consumer Code: “The goods conform to the contract if they meet the following criteria, where applicable

1° It corresponds to the description, type, quantity and quality, in particular as regards functionality, compatibility, interoperability, or any other characteristic provided for in the contract ;

2° It is fit for any special purpose sought by the consumer, made known to the seller at the latest at the time of the conclusion of the contract and accepted by the latter;

3° It is delivered with all the accessories and installation instructions to be provided in accordance with the contract;

4° It is updated in accordance with the contract.

Article L217-5 of the French consumer Code: “I. In addition to the criteria of conformity to the contract, the good is conforming if it meets the following criteria:

1° It is fit for the use normally expected of goods of the same type, taking into account, where applicable, any provisions of European Union law and national law as well as all technical standards or, in the absence of such technical standards, specific codes of conduct applicable to the sector concerned ;

2° Where applicable, it has the qualities that the seller has presented to the consumer in the form of a sample or model, before the conclusion of the contract;

3° Where applicable, the digital elements it contains are provided in the most recent version available at the time the contract is concluded, unless the parties agree otherwise;

4° Where applicable, it is delivered with all the accessories, including packaging, and installation instructions that the consumer can legitimately expect;

5° Where applicable, it is supplied with the updates that the consumer may legitimately expect, in accordance with the provisions of Article L. 217-19;

6° it corresponds to the quantity, quality and other characteristics, including durability, functionality, compatibility and safety, that the consumer can legitimately expect for goods of the same type, taking into account the nature of the goods as well as public statements made by the seller, by any person upstream in the chain of transactions, or by a person acting on their behalf, including in advertising or on the label.

II. However, the seller is not bound by any of the public statements mentioned in the preceding paragraph if he demonstrates:

1° that he did not know them and was not legitimately able to know them ;

2° that, at the time the contract was entered into, the public statements had been corrected in a manner comparable to the original statements; or

3° that the public statements could not have influenced the decision to purchase.

III. The consumer may not contest the conformity by invoking a defect concerning one or more particular characteristics of the goods, which he was specifically informed deviated from the criteria of conformity set out in this article, deviation to which he expressly and separately consented at the time of the conclusion of the contract.”

Article L217-7 of the French consumer Code: “Defects of conformity that appear within twenty-four months of delivery of the goods, including goods with digital elements, are, unless proven otherwise, presumed to have existed at the time of delivery, unless this presumption is incompatible with the nature of the goods or the defect claimed.(…)”

Article L217-8 of the French consumer Code: “In the event of a lack of conformity, the consumer has the right to have the goods repaired or replaced or, failing that, to have the price reduced or the contract rescinded, in accordance with the conditions set out in this sub-section. (…) The provisions of this chapter are without prejudice to the award of damages.”

Article L217-9 of the French consumer Code: “The consumer is entitled to demand that the goods comply with the criteria set out in sub-section 1 of this section. The consumer shall request the seller to bring the goods into conformity, choosing between repair and replacement. To this end, the consumer shall make the goods available to the seller.”

Article L217-10 of the French consumer Code: “The goods shall be brought into conformity within a reasonable time, which may not exceed thirty days following the consumer's request and without major inconvenience to the consumer, taking into account the nature of the goods and the use intended by the consumer. The repair or replacement of the non-conforming good includes, if necessary, the removal and return of the good and the installation of the repaired or replacement good by the seller. A decree specifies the terms and conditions for bringing the goods into conformity.”

Article L217-11 of the French consumer Code: “The goods are brought into conformity at no cost to the consumer. The consumer is not required to pay for the normal use he made of the replaced good during the period prior to its replacement.”

Article L217-12 of the French consumer Code: “The seller may not proceed according to the choice made by the consumer if the requested compliance is impossible or entails disproportionate costs with regard to, in particular:

1° The value that the goods would have if there was no lack of conformity;

2° the significance of the lack of conformity; and

3° the possibility of choosing the other option without major inconvenience to the consumer.

The seller may refuse to bring the goods into conformity if this is impossible or would entail disproportionate costs, particularly with regard to 1° and 2°.

When these conditions are not respected, the consumer can, after formal notice, pursue the forced execution in kind of the solution initially requested, in accordance with articles 1221 and following of the civil code.

Any refusal by the seller to proceed according to the consumer’s choice or to bring the goods into conformity shall be motivated in writing or on a durable medium.”

Article L217-13 of the French consumer Code: “Any good repaired under the legal guarantee of conformity benefits from a six-month extension of this guarantee. If the consumer chooses to have the goods repaired but the seller does not do so, the replacement of the goods to bring them into conformity will give rise to a new period of legal warranty of conformity for the replaced goods. This provision applies from the day the replacement goods are delivered to the consumer.”

Article L217-14 of the French consumer Code: “The consumer is entitled to a reduction in the price of the goods or to rescission of the contract in the following cases:

1° Where the seller refuses to bring the goods into conformity ;

2° If the goods are brought into conformity after a period of thirty days following the consumer’s request or if it causes him a major inconvenience;

3° If the consumer definitively bears the cost of taking back or removing the non-conforming goods, or if he bears the installation of the repaired or replacement goods or the related costs;

4° If the non-conformity of the goods persists despite the seller’s attempt to bring them into conformity, which has not been successful.

The consumer is also entitled to a reduction in the price of the goods or to rescission of the contract when the lack of conformity is so serious that it justifies the reduction in price or the rescission of the contract being immediate. The consumer is then not obliged to ask for the repair or replacement of the goods beforehand.

The consumer shall not be entitled to rescind the sale if the lack of conformity is minor, which the seller shall have the burden of proof. This paragraph shall not apply to contracts in which the consumer does not pay a price.”

Article L217-15 of the French consumer Code: “In the cases provided for in Article L. 217-14 of the French consumer Code, the consumer shall inform the seller of his decision to obtain a reduction in the price of the goods. The reduction in price is proportional to the difference between the value of the goods delivered and the value of the goods in the absence of the lack of conformity.”

Article L217-16 of the French consumer Code: “In the cases provided for in Article L. 217-14 of the French consumer Code, the consumer shall inform the seller of his decision to cancel the contract. He returns the goods to the seller at the latter’s expense. The seller shall reimburse the consumer the price paid and return any other benefit received under the contract (…)”

Article L217-17 of the French consumer Code: “The reimbursement to the consumer of the sums owed by the seller under this sub-section shall be made upon receipt of the goods or of the proof of their return by the consumer and at the latest within the following fourteen days. The seller shall reimburse these sums using the same means of payment as the one used by the consumer to conclude the contract, unless the latter expressly agrees and in any case without additional costs.”

Within the framework of the legal guarantee of conformity and to the extent permitted by law, provided that (i) your request meets the conditions for the guarantee to apply and (ii) you act within two (2) years from the delivery of the product, you may obtain:

- repair or replacement of the product with an identical product (provided that such product is available in stock), at your option, unless one of these options entails a disproportionate cost for PCD compared to the other possible option, or
- if repair and replacement of the product are not possible or cannot be implemented within thirty (30) days of your request or cause a major inconvenience to you, a full or partial refund of the price of the product, by crediting your bank account, no later than fourteen (14) days after PCD receives the returned product.

Please note that you (i) are not required to prove the existence of a defect in the conformity of the product during the twenty-four (24) months following the delivery of the product and (ii) that the legal warranty of conformity applies independently of any commercial warranty that may have been granted.

Finally, please note that you may decide to implement the legal warranty against hidden defects in accordance with the box below.

Legal warranty against hidden defects

Articles 1641 to 1649 of the French civil Code regulate the legal warranty against hidden defects.

Please find here below for your information the translation of some of these articles:

Article 1641 of the French civil Code: “The seller is bound by the warranty for hidden defects of the good sold which render it unfit for the purpose for which it was intended, or which so diminish this use that the buyer would not have acquired it, or would have given only a lesser price, if he had known about them.”

Article 1644 of the French civil Code: “In the case of articles 1641 and 1643 of the French civil Code, the buyer has the choice of returning the thing and having the price returned to him, or keeping the thing and having part of the price returned to him.”

Article 1646 of the French civil Code: “If the seller was unaware of the defects of the thing, he shall be bound only to refund the price, and to reimburse the purchaser for the expenses incurred by the sale.”

Article 1648 of the French civil Code: “The action resulting from hidden defects must be brought by the buyer within two years from the discovery of the defect. (…)”

Within the framework of the legal guarantee of the hidden defects, when applicable, provided that you bring the proof of the existence of the hidden defect, you can obtain:

- a refund of the price of the product if you return the product, or
- a refund of part of the price of the product if you keep the product, excluding any compensation, by crediting your bank account, at the latest within fourteen (14) days from the recognition and acceptance by PCD of the hidden defect.

If you wish to exercise your legal rights in the event of a non-conformity or hidden defect of the products under the relevant statutory warranties, please contact our Customer Service (see contact details at article 1) which will guide you regarding how to return products, and/or request a repair or a replacement or a refund of the product concerned.

We only supply the products to you for private use and not for commercial, business or resale purposes. We therefore will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption or loss of business opportunity.

Please see our Data Protection policy accessible here on the Website to understand how we will use, process and protect the personal information and the data submitted by you when creating an account, purchasing products and when you are otherwise using the Website.

We will use the data including personal information you provide to us:

(a) to supply the products to you;

(b) to process your payment for the products; and

(c) if you agreed to this during the order process, to inform you about similar products that we provide, but you may stop receiving this at any time by contacting us.

All intellectual property rights, whatever their nature, attached to all products sold on theWebsite and the elements appearing on the Website (including in particular: texts, logos, trademarks, graphics, images, photos, videos, animations, names and any other element) are and remain the exclusive property of PCD, and are exclusively reserved to it. Under these conditions, no one is authorized to reproduce, represent, exploit, adapt, disseminate or use, by any process whatsoever, for any purpose whatsoever, in part or in full, the intellectual property rights on the products sold on the Website and the elements appearing on the Website, without the prior written consent of PCD.

10. Other Important Terms


We may transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms to another person or organisation. We will tell you in writing if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the contract.


You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these Terms to another person with our prior written consent. We will not unreasonably withhold or delay our consent.


This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its Terms.

Each of the paragraphs of these Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these Terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean a waiver of our rights or that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.


These Terms are governed by French law subject to the mandatory rules of your country of residence and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the French courtssubject to the mandatory rules of your country of residence or settle the dispute through an alternative dispute resolution mechanism, as set out below.

Information on alternative dispute settlement: The EU Commission offers the possibility of online dispute resolution on an online platform operated by it. This platform can be accessed via the external link http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/ . We are not obliged to participate in a conciliation procedure and unfortunately cannot offer participation in such a procedure.
