The Services can only be accessed from one connection at a time.

When creating an account with an email address, the Client is prompted to choose a password, which ensures the confidentiality of the information contained in their account.

To validate the registration, the Service Provider sends a confirmation email to the email address provided by the Client. The Client then activates their account by clicking on the hyperlink provided for this purpose in the confirmation email.

Each Client guarantees the truthfulness and accuracy of the information provided for their registration, agrees to notify any subsequent changes, and guarantees that such information does not infringe upon the rights of third parties.

The Client can modify this information, as well as their login credentials and password, from their account on the Site.

The Client undertakes not to disclose or transfer their account, login credentials, and password, and is solely responsible for their use until they are deactivated. The Client must immediately inform the Service Provider of any loss or unauthorized use of their account.

To combat fraud, the Service Provider or its payment or delivery service providers may request additional documentation from the Client or contact them at the time of order acceptance and/or shipment. In the event of the Client's unjustified refusal to provide the requested information and/or documentation, the Service Provider reserves the right to refuse or cancel the order without any possibility of dispute.

The Service Provider also reserves the right to refuse or cancel the order of any Client who has provided inaccurate information, has not made payment for the Services, has a dispute regarding payment for a previous order, or presents an abnormally high level of ordering.

Article 6 - Obligations of the service provider

The Service Provider undertakes to make every effort necessary for the performance of the Services and its obligations under these General Terms and/or any other documentation concluded with the Clients, in compliance with legislative and regulatory provisions and the rights of third parties.

The Service Provider declares that it possesses the skills, experience, and resources necessary to provide the Services and assumes full responsibility for both the performance of the Services and the organization of its personnel's work, if applicable.

The Service Provider publishes the Services available on the Site and hosts the content uploaded by the Clients. The Service Provider acts as a technical service provider and does not exercise any control over the legality, accuracy, quality, or sincerity of the content uploaded by the Clients under their responsibility.

Consequently, the Clients acknowledge that the Service Provider qualifies as a hosting provider for the Site within the meaning of Article 6 of Law No. 2004-575 of June 21, 2004, on confidence in the digital economy.

However, the Service Provider undertakes to promptly remove any manifestly illegal content that is brought to its attention, particularly when the existence of such content has been notified to it by a Client in accordance with applicable regulations.

Furthermore, the Service Provider strives to ensure access to and proper functioning of the Site twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.

However, the Service Provider cannot exclude the possibility that access to and functioning of the Site may be interrupted, particularly in cases of force majeure, malfunction of the Clients' equipment or internet network, telecommunication operator failure, power supply interruption, abnormal, unlawful, or fraudulent use of the Site by a Client or a third party, decisions by competent authorities, or for any other reason.

The Service Provider also reserves the right to make any modifications and improvements of its choice to the Site and the Services, related to technical advancements or proper functioning.

General and temporary interruptions of the Site and the Services will, whenever possible, be notified via the Site before they occur, unless such interruptions are of an urgent nature.

Article 7 - Obligations of the client

Each Client undertakes to access and use the Site and the Services in a fair manner and in compliance with applicable laws and these General Terms.

The data and information communicated or uploaded by the Clients must be accurate, sincere, and fair and will be provided under their sole responsibility.

In general, each Client undertakes to:

• Ensure compliance, at all times, with the legal, social, administrative, and tax obligations applicable to their professional status.
• Not modify, alter, during the provision of the Services, their nature or terms of provision, except with the prior written agreement of the Service Provider.
• Pay the price for the Services under the conditions provided herein.
• Not distribute unlawful content or content that has the effect of diminishing, disrupting, slowing down, or interrupting the normal flow of data on the Site.
• Immediately report to the Service Provider any difficulty, reservation, or dispute arising during the performance of the Services or any abnormal, abusive, or fraudulent use of the Site of which they become aware.

In the event that a Client is responsible for a violation of the applicable legislation or infringement of the rights of third parties, the Service Provider reserves the right to provide, at the request of any legitimate authority (court, administrative authority, police services), any information that allows or facilitates the identification of the infringing Client.

Article 8 - Complaints

In the event of non-performance or defective performance of the Services, the Client must notify the Service Provider and state their grievances and reservations within a period of thirty (30) calendar days from the date they became aware of it, in order to allow the parties to make their best efforts to reach an amicable settlement within a period of thirty (30) calendar days following the Client's initial notification.

If an amicable settlement is not reached under the aforementioned conditions and in the event of sufficiently serious non-performance by the Service Provider, the Client may terminate the General Terms under the conditions provided in Article 17 and, if applicable, obtain damages from the Service Provider to compensate for the suffered harm. The Client expressly waives the right to seek specific performance of the Services by the Service Provider or a third party or a proportional reduction of the price, in derogation of the provisions of Articles 1221, 1222, and 1223 of the Civil Code.

Article 9 - Liability of the service provider

The Service Provider is subject to an obligation of means in providing the Services.

Each Client declares to be aware of the constraints and limitations of the Internet networks and may not, under any circumstances, hold the Service Provider liable for malfunctions in accessing the Services, the speed of opening and viewing the pages of the Services, the temporary or permanent unavailability of the Services, or the fraudulent use of the Site by Clients or third parties.

The liability of the Service Provider cannot be engaged:

• In the event of a failure to fulfill any obligation resulting from a fortuitous event or force majeure within the meaning of Article 1218 of the Civil Code, including, but not limited to, unforeseeable events such as strikes, labor disputes, social unrest, factory closures, floods, fires, production or transport failures not attributable to its own actions, supply disruptions, wars, riots, insurrections, and, more generally, any circumstances or events preventing the Company from properly fulfilling its obligations.
• In the event that the information, data, instructions, directives, materials, or media provided by the Client are incorrect or incomplete, and more generally, in the event that the non-performance or defective performance of the Services is wholly or partly due to the behavior, failure, or deficiency of the Client.
• In the event that certain services or features are not accessible on the Site due to a Client's deactivation of cookies via the browser software interface.
• In the event that the functionalities of the Site prove to be incompatible with certain equipment and/or features of a Client's computer hardware.

Each Client is also responsible for the content and information imported, stored, and/or published on the Site and undertakes not to employ any technical measures that may circumvent the technical protection measures implemented by the Service Provider to prevent any fraudulent use of the Site and the Services.

Each Client assumes sole responsibility for all measures necessary to ensure the integrity and backup of all their data, files, and documents and waives the right to hold the Service Provider liable for any damage to data, files, or any other document entrusted to the Service Provider in connection with the use of the Site and/or the Services.

Furthermore, each Client undertakes to indemnify the Service Provider against any claims, demands, oppositions, and any legal proceedings brought against it due to the Client's use of the Site or the Services.

In any case, the Service Provider shall not be liable for any indirect or immaterial damages or losses, such as financial loss, loss of opportunity, loss of profit, loss of contract, loss of orders, loss of clientele, loss of business, commercial prejudice or disturbance, or damage to reputation, which may result from defective provision or non-provision of the Services.

The liability of the Service Provider may not exceed an amount equal to the price excluding taxes received from the Client for the provision of the Services during the last twelve (12) months.

In accordance with the provisions of Article 2254 of the Civil Code, any legal action by a Client against the Service Provider is subject to a one-year limitation period from the date on which the Client became aware or is presumed to have become aware of the harmful event.

Article 10 - Recording systems

The computerized records kept in the computer systems of the Service Provider and its partners, under reasonable security conditions, will be considered as evidence of the communications and actions of the Clients and the Service Provider. The archiving of these elements is carried out on a reliable and durable medium, corresponding to a faithful and durable copy within the meaning of applicable regulations.

Each Client acknowledges the evidentiary value of the automated recording systems of the Site and declares that they waive the right to challenge them in the event of a dispute.

In any case, the existence of a hypertext link to the Site from a third-party site or on the Site to a third-party site or partner does not engage the liability of the Service Provider in any way, particularly regarding the availability, content, and products and/or services available on or from that third-party site or partner.

As a result, none of the content on the Site may be modified, reproduced, copied, duplicated, sold, resold, transmitted, published, communicated, distributed, broadcast, represented, stored, used, rented, or otherwise exploited, in whole or in part, by a Client or a third party, whether free of charge or for a fee, regardless of the means and/or media used, whether known or unknown to date, without the prior written authorization of the Service Provider.
