To use the Services, including to access or browse our online stores, or to purchase any of the products or services we offer, you may be asked to provide certain information, such as your email address, and billing, payment and shipping details. You represent and warrant that all information you provide in our stores is accurate, current and complete, and that you hold all rights necessary to provide such information.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity on your account. You are not permitted to transfer, sell, assign or sublicense your account to another person.


SECTION 2 – OUR PRODUCTS

We have endeavoured to provide an accurate representation of our products and services in our online stores. However, please note that the colours or appearance of products may differ from how they appear on your screen, due to the type of device you use to access the store, your device settings and configuration, and the handcrafted nature of our creations.

We do not guarantee that the appearance or quality of products or services you purchase will exactly meet your expectations or be identical to the description or rendering in our online stores.

All product descriptions are subject to change at any time without notice, at our sole discretion. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time and may limit the quantities of any product we offer to any person, geographic area or jurisdiction, on a case-by-case basis.


SECTION 3 – ORDERS

When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase. MARCEL ET LES BLONDES reserves the right to accept or refuse your order for any reason, at its sole discretion. Your order is not accepted until MARCEL ET LES BLONDES has confirmed its acceptance. We must receive and process your payment before your order is accepted.

Please review your order carefully before submitting it, particularly for personalised items (engravings, names, dates, messages…), as we may not be able to modify or cancel an order once it has been accepted and put into production.

Your purchases may be returned or exchanged only in accordance with our Refund Policy [LIEN], which sets out in particular the specific conditions applicable to personalised items.

You represent and warrant that your purchases are intended for your personal or domestic use and not for commercial resale or export.

The price charged for a product or service will be the price in effect at the time the order is placed and will be indicated in your order confirmation email. Unless otherwise stated, displayed prices do not include taxes, shipping and handling fees, or customs or import charges.

We may offer, from time to time, promotions on the Services that may affect prices and that are governed by terms separate from these Terms. In the event of a conflict between the terms of a promotion and these Terms, the promotion terms will prevail.

You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase, payment and account information for all purchases made in our stores. You agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address, credit card numbers and expiration dates, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed.

SECTION 5 – SHIPPING AND DELIVERY

We are not responsible for shipping and delivery delays beyond our control. All shipping timeframes stated are estimates and are not guaranteed. We are not responsible for delays caused by carriers, customs processing or external events.

Once we transfer the products to the carrier, the risk of loss or damage passes to the customer. In the event of a delivery issue, we invite you to contact us so that we can help you open a claim with the carrier.
