13. Guarantees

The consumer has two (2) years from the date of delivery of the goods to invoke the legal guarantee of conformity in the event of a lack of conformity that existed at the time of delivery. During this period, the consumer is only required to prove the existence of the lack of conformity, not the date on which it appeared (this period is twelve (12) months for second-hand goods).

The legal guarantee of conformity gives the consumer the right to the repair or replacement of the goods within thirty (30) days of their request, free of charge and without major inconvenience to them.

If the goods are repaired under the legal guarantee of conformity, the consumer benefits from a six (6) month extension of the initial guarantee. If the consumer requests repair of the goods, but the seller insists on replacement, the legal guarantee of conformity is renewed for a period of two (2) years from the date of replacement.

The consumer can obtain a reduction in the purchase price by keeping the goods or terminate the contract by receiving a full refund upon return of the goods, if:

1° The professional refuses to repair or replace the item;

2° The repair or replacement of the goods takes place after a period of thirty (30) days;

3° The repair or replacement of the goods causes a major inconvenience for the consumer, in particular when the consumer permanently bears the costs of taking back or removing the non-conforming goods, or if he bears the costs of installing the repaired or replacement goods;

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 price reduction or cancellation of the contract when the lack of conformity is so serious that it justifies an immediate price reduction or cancellation. In such cases, the consumer is not required to request repair or replacement of the goods beforehand.

The consumer is not entitled to rescind the sale if the lack of conformity is minor.

Any period of immobilization of the goods for the purpose of repair or replacement suspends the warranty which remained to run until delivery of the repaired goods.

The rights mentioned above result from the application of articles L. 217-1 to L. 217-32 of the Consumer Code.

A seller who obstructs in bad faith 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 the average annual turnover (Article L. 241-5 of the Consumer Code).

The consumer also benefits from the legal guarantee against hidden defects, pursuant to Articles 1641 to 1649 of the Civil Code, for a period of two (2) years from the discovery of the defect. This guarantee entitles the consumer to a price reduction if the goods are kept or to a full refund upon return of the goods.

 

In the event of non-conformity or a hidden defect in the Product, the Customer must submit their complaint to Rampal Latour's customer service department. When returning a Product, the returned Product must be accompanied by all accessories and the purchase invoice, be perfectly protected, and sent by mail, at the Customer's own risk, to the address indicated below in the standard withdrawal form.

The exercise of these guarantees takes place at no cost to the Client, in accordance with Article L.217-11 of the Consumer Code, provided however that the latter is entitled to claim the benefit of these guarantees.

 

14. Responsibility

Unless otherwise provided by law of public order, RAMPAL LATOUR cannot be held liable for indirect damages caused by its actions or the Products marketed or for damages of any kind resulting from the impossibility of placing an order or the unavailability of an ordered Product.

RAMPAL LATOUR shall not be held liable in any way for non-performance or improper performance of contractual obligations attributable to the Client, in particular during the entry of their order.

RAMPAL LATOUR shall not be held liable, or considered to have failed to comply with these terms, for any delay or non-performance, when the cause of the delay or non-performance is related to a case of force majeure as defined below.

It is further specified that RAMPAL LATOUR does not control the websites that are directly or indirectly linked to the Site. Consequently, it disclaims all liability for the information published on them. Links to third-party websites are provided for informational purposes only, and no guarantee is given as to their content.

 

15. Force majeure

RAMPAL LATOUR cannot be held liable if the non-performance or delay in the performance of any of its obligations described in these Terms and Conditions arises from a case of force majeure.

There is force majeure in contractual matters when an event beyond the control of the debtor, which could not reasonably have been foreseen at the time the contract was concluded and whose effects cannot be avoided by appropriate measures, prevents the debtor from performing his obligation. Furthermore, the parties acknowledge that the following events will automatically be considered as cases of force majeure as soon as they are reasonably beyond the control of RAMPAL LATOUR and despite the fact that they do not meet all the conditions established by case law: strikes (announced or not) affecting the performance, by RAMPAL LATOUR and/or its own suppliers, of their contractual obligations, non-performance of contract by RAMPAL LATOUR resulting from the actions of its suppliers (supplier delivery delays, etc.) or its carriers (delays, loss of goods, etc.), lockouts, adverse weather conditions (frost, storms, etc.) as well as any event independent of the will of RAMPAL LATOUR which makes it impossible or calls into question the financial balance existing on the date of the order.

If the impediment is temporary, performance of the obligation is suspended unless the resulting delay justifies termination of the contract. If the impediment is permanent, the contract is automatically terminated and the parties are released from their obligations under the conditions set forth in Articles 1351 and 1351-1 of the Civil Code.

In this respect, RAMPAL LATOUR cannot be held liable, in particular in the event of computer hacking attacks, unavailability of materials, supplies, spare parts, personal equipment or other, interruption of electronic communication networks, as well as in the event of any circumstance or event beyond the control of RAMPAL LATOUR occurring after the conclusion of the CGV and preventing execution under normal conditions.

It is specified that, in such a situation, the Client cannot claim payment of any compensation and cannot take any legal action against RAMPAL LATOUR.

In the event of the occurrence of one of the aforementioned events, RAMPAL LATOUR will endeavor to inform the Client as soon as possible.

Roosevelt – 75008 Paris, and which can be contacted via this link: http://www.cmap.fr/

For the CMAP referral to be admissible, it must include: Your postal, email and telephone contact details as well as the full name and address of our company, a brief statement of the facts, and proof of prior steps taken.

In accordance with the rules applicable to mediation, it is recalled that a consumer dispute must first be submitted in writing to RAMPAL LATOUR Customer Service before any request for mediation with the CMAP.

The party wishing to initiate the mediation process must first inform the other party by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt, specifying the elements of the dispute.

Since mediation is not mandatory, the Client or RAMPAL LATOUR may withdraw from the process at any time.

In the event that mediation fails or is not envisaged, the dispute which may have given rise to mediation will be referred to the competent jurisdiction designated above.

 

Appendix 1 – Withdrawal Policy

Principle of withdrawal

The Customer has the right to withdraw by returning or sending back the Product to RAMPAL LATOUR without giving any reason.

For this, the Product must be returned or sent back no later than fourteen (14) days after the communication of the decision to withdraw, unless RAMPAL LATOUR offers to collect the Product itself.

 

Right of withdrawal

The withdrawal period expires fourteen (14) days after the day on which you, or a third party other than the carrier and designated by you, takes physical possession of the goods.

If the Customer has ordered several Products in a single order resulting in multiple deliveries (or if a single Product is ordered and delivered in multiple lots or pieces), the withdrawal period will expire fourteen (14) days after the day on which you, or a third party other than the carrier and designated by you, takes physical possession of the last item, lot, or piece. In the case of an order for the regular delivery of goods over a specified period, this period expires on the day the first item is taken into possession.

The day the order is placed or the day the goods are received is not included in this period. If this period expires on a Saturday, Sunday, or public holiday, it is extended to the next working day.

 

Notification of the right of withdrawal

To exercise his right of withdrawal and in accordance with Article L.221-21 of the Consumer Code, the Customer must notify his decision to withdraw by means of an unambiguous statement (for example, letter sent by post, fax or email) to: bel@rampal-latour.fr or 201 Impasse Gaspard Monge – 13300 Salon de Provence.

He can also use the form below:

In order for the withdrawal period to be respected, the Customer must send their communication relating to the exercise of the right of withdrawal before the expiry of the withdrawal period.

 

Effects of retraction

In the event of withdrawal by the Customer, RAMPAL LATOUR undertakes to reimburse all sums paid, including delivery costs (with the exception of any additional costs arising from the Customer's choice of a delivery method other than the standard delivery method offered by RAMPAL LATOUR), without undue delay and at the latest 14 days from the day on which RAMPAL LATOUR was informed of the Customer's decision to withdraw. ( Article L.221-24 of the French Consumer Code)

Unless RAMPAL LATOUR offers to collect the Products itself, it may defer the refund until the Products are recovered or until the Customer has provided proof of shipment of the Products, whichever occurs first.

RAMPAL LATOUR will make the refund using the same payment method that the Customer used for the initial transaction, unless the Customer expressly agrees to use another payment method and provided that the refund will not incur any costs for the Customer.

 

Return procedures

The Customer must in any event, no later than fourteen (14) days after communicating his decision to withdraw from this contract, return the goods to: 201 Impasse Gaspard Monge – 13300 Salon de Provence.

This deadline is deemed to have been met if the CLIENT returns the goods before the expiry of the fourteen (14) day period.

 

Return shipping costs

The Customer will be responsible for the direct costs of returning the item.

In the event that the weight of the Product prevents the Customer from returning the Product by Post, the Customer will have to bear the direct costs of returning the goods.

 

Condition of returned item

The Product must be returned according to RAMPAL LATOUR's instructions and must include all accessories delivered.

If applicable, promotional gifts sent with the order must also be returned.

The Customer is only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics, and proper functioning of the Product. In other words, the Customer may test the Product, but will be held liable if they perform any handling other than what is necessary.

The right of withdrawal is excluded for contracts listed in Articles L. 221-2 and L. 221-28 of the Consumer Code, particularly in the following cases:
