ARTICLE 3. ORDERS
3.1. Browsing the Site. The Customer may consult the various Products offered for sale by LAGA Paris on its Site and browse freely through the different pages of the Site, without being committed to an order.
3.2. Placing an order. If the Customer wishes to place an order, they will choose the various Products they are interested in and express this interest by clicking on the "Add to cart" icon. On the website, at any time, the Customer may:
- obtain details of the Products they have selected, by clicking on "My cart" then "View my cart details",
- continue their selection of Products by clicking on "Continue shopping",
- finalize their selection of Products and order these Products by clicking on "Validate my cart".
To order the Products they have thus chosen, after clicking on "Validate my cart", the Customer must identify themselves, either by entering their email address and confidential password, if they have already created an account, or by clicking on "Create my account" otherwise. In the latter case, the Customer must accurately complete the form provided, on which they must indicate the information necessary for their identification, including their first name, last name, billing address, and telephone number. In addition, the Customer must provide their email address and the password of their choice, which will be personal and confidential and which they will need to identify themselves later on the Site. The Customer is informed and accepts that the entry of these two identifiers constitutes proof of their identity. Once the Customer has identified themselves, they must confirm their contact details and choose their payment method, among those offered by LAGA Paris in accordance with Article 6, and must tick the box accepting these general terms and conditions of sale, before clicking on "Finalize my order". An order form will then appear on the screen, detailing in particular: the nature, quantity and price of the Products selected by the Customer, as well as the total amount of the order, the Customer's contact details and the delivery time of the Products. The Customer may correct any errors by going back before confirming their order. If this is the case, a new order form will be automatically issued.
3.3. Final validation of the order. After reviewing the order form, and once all the requested information has been completed by the Customer, the latter will click on "Validate my order". The validation of the order includes the mention "Order with obligation to pay". This second click constitutes an electronic signature. This signature has the same value and commits the Customer as a handwritten signature. The order form will be recorded in LAGA Paris's computer registers, which are kept on a reliable and durable medium and will be considered as proof of the Customer's commitment. The Customer will proceed to pay for the Products under the conditions of Article 6.
3.4. Order summary. Once payment has been made, an order summary will be displayed, including the transaction number. The sale will only be considered final after LAGA Paris displays the order summary, which constitutes an acknowledgement of receipt of the order. An email summarizing the order will then be sent to the Customer upon its registration (hereinafter "Contract").
3.5. In any event, LAGA Paris reserves the right to refuse any order or delivery in the event of (i) an existing dispute with the Customer, (ii) total or partial non-payment of a previous order by the Customer, (iii) refusal of payment authorization by credit card by banking organizations. LAGA Paris's liability cannot then be engaged.
3.6 Order tracking. The Customer can contact LAGA Paris's customer service at any time to inquire about the status of their order at the following address: contact.lagaparis@gmail.com.
ARTICLE 4. PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS - AVAILABILITY
4.1 The Customer is informed that the characteristics of the Products marketed by LAGA Paris may vary from one Product to another, particularly regarding the size, position, color or gradient effect of the scales (or other materials) present on the Products. The Customer is also informed that the Products are, by nature, fragile. Therefore, if the products require adjustments, these must imperatively be carried out by a professional optician. In this regard, the Customer acknowledges that the information provided in the description of the Products on the Site is indicative. LAGA Paris's liability cannot be engaged in the event of a non-significant discrepancy between the description provided and the actual characteristics of the Product delivered.
4.2 Product offers on the Site are valid only within the limits of available stock. Availability may vary within the same day depending on the level of sales recorded by LAGA Paris. LAGA Paris updates availability on the Site very frequently, but it cannot be held responsible if the stock is not identical to that indicated on the Site.
ARTICLE 5. PRODUCT DELIVERY - DEADLINES
LAGA Paris delivers Products in France and abroad.
LAGA Paris handles transport operations to the delivery location indicated in the Contract, solely as the Customer's agent. Delivery costs will therefore be fully re-invoiced to the Customer.
The Customer is informed that the amount of delivery costs may depend on the delivery area as well as the value of the transported goods. The amount of delivery costs is indicated in the Contract. Furthermore, any Customer requesting delivery outside the European Union declares to be informed that they are fully liable for all duties, taxes and levies that may be applicable in the country of importation of the Products, including customs duties, customs clearance fees, VAT, etc. These costs are paid directly by the Customer to the competent authorities of the country of importation. The transfer of risks takes place upon the Customer's physical possession of the Products. The delivery time possibly indicated in the Contract is an indicative period, as LAGA Paris cannot control external constraints related to the transport of Products. In any event, LAGA Paris delivers the Products to the Customer without undue delay and no later than thirty days after the conclusion of the Contract. The Customer is recommended to check the apparent condition of the Products upon receipt. In the event of an anomaly (damaged package, missing or damaged Products), the Customer is invited to make reservations with the carrier and to inform LAGA Paris as soon as possible, providing, if possible, all useful information (photographs, description of the damage). This step is intended to facilitate the processing of the claim and the possible exercise of LAGA Paris's recourse against the carrier. It does not constitute a prerequisite for the exercise of the Customer's rights, particularly regarding guarantees.
ARTICLE 6. PRICE - PAYMENT
6.1. Products are marketed at the current prices displayed on the Site when the order is registered by LAGA Paris. Prices are expressed in Euros, inclusive of all taxes. LAGA Paris reserves the right to modify its prices at any time, it being understood that the price indicated on the order form issued by LAGA Paris is the final price.
6.2. The price is payable in full, on the day the Order is placed by the Customer, via secure payment using one of the following methods: - By credit card via the online payment provider selected by LAGA Paris (hereinafter the "Online Payment Provider"). Accepted cards are Carte Bleue, Visa, Mastercard. The Customer must provide the cardholder's name, credit card number, card type, expiration date, and the cryptogram number (3-digit number on the back of the credit card). The Customer will be automatically redirected to the Online Payment Provider's service. The Online Payment Provider's server is secured to protect all payment-related data as effectively as possible. The Customer acknowledges that their banking data will at no time pass through LAGA Paris's computer system, which therefore cannot be held liable in the event of fraudulent abstraction of the Customer's banking data. The transaction is immediately debited from the Customer's credit card after verification of its data. In the event that the debit of the price is impossible, the Customer's Order will be canceled; - By "Paypal", which implies that the Customer has a dedicated Paypal account;
- By "Apple Pay", which implies that the Customer has a dedicated Apple account.
6.3. LAGA Paris will not be obliged to deliver the Products ordered by the Customer if the Customer does not pay the full price under the conditions indicated above. Payment itself will only be considered executed after LAGA Paris has actually collected the funds.
6.4. An invoice is issued by LAGA Paris and given to the Customer upon delivery of the ordered Products. A printable detailed invoice will also be available on the Site in the "My account" section.
ARTICLE 7. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL
7.1. The Customer has the right to withdraw from the Contract without giving any reason within fourteen (14) days from the day they physically take possession of the Products.
7.2. Notification of the right of withdrawal.

The Customer may, if they wish, use the model withdrawal form in the Appendix hereto, but this is not obligatory. The Customer may also send the completed withdrawal form or any other unambiguous declaration via the "Contact" section of the Site. If the Customer uses this option, an acknowledgement of receipt of the withdrawal will be sent to them without delay on a durable medium (for example, by email).
7.3. Effect of withdrawal. In case of withdrawal, LAGA Paris will reimburse the Customer for all payments received from the Customer, without undue delay and, in any event, no later than fourteen (14) days from the day LAGA Paris is informed of the Customer's decision to withdraw. LAGA Paris will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as the Customer used for the initial transaction, unless the Customer expressly agrees to another means of payment.

7.4. Return Procedures. The Customer must return or hand over the Products in perfect condition, complete, in their original packaging, to the address indicated in Article 2, without undue delay and, in any event, no later than fourteen (14) days after they have communicated their decision to withdraw to LAGA Paris.

Any product returned with missing accessories will not be accepted and will not be reimbursed or exchanged. In the event of depreciation of the returned Products resulting from handling other than that necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and proper functioning of these Products, LAGA Paris reserves the right to hold the Customer liable and to request payment of a compensatory indemnity proportionate to the purchase price of said Products.
