The Customer expressly acknowledges that the entry of his contact details, including necessarily his email address, constitutes identification on his part.

3.2 – Conclusion of the sales contract by the Website – double click

The sales contract of the KEYMO(s) is validated when, the Customer has been able to read and accept the GTC, has added his products in the basket (1st click), has checked the content of his order (the number of KEYMO he wants), has corrected any errors and has confirmed it by a second click, in accordance with the provisions of articles 1125 to 1127-3 of the Civil Code.

The double-click procedure constitutes the Customer's consent and entails the payment of the sums due for the execution of the order by BYSTAMP.

3.3 – Confirmation of the sales contract

An email with the GTC will be sent to the Customer’s email address in order to confirm the conclusion of the contract on a sustainable medium. This confirmation email will also transmit the order number and will make it possible to include all the elements that are the subject of the general information obligation.

It is, therefore, strongly recommended that the Customer keep this confirmation email.

3.4 – Proof of the transaction

The computerized records, kept in Bystamp's computer systems under reasonable conditions of security, will be considered as proof of communications, orders and payments between the Parties. The archiving of purchase orders and invoices is carried out on a reliable and durable medium that can be produced as proof, which the Customer expressly acknowledges.


ARTICLE 4 – FARE CONDITIONS

4.1 – Currency – VAT – Other taxes

The rates indicated on the order form or the website are in euros (€) excluding taxes. The VAT rate applied is the legal rate in force on the day of the transaction. In the event of a change in the amount of the French VAT rate, the adjustment of the prices including VAT will be immediate, without prior information.

In the event of a manifest and gross typographical error in the display of the price, the sale may be cancelled by BYSTAMP or by the Customer.

4.2 – Modification of tariffs

BYSTAMP may change the prices of its Products at any time. However, the changes will not apply to orders once the contract of sale has been validly formed.

4.3 – Delivery costs and Processing fees

In addition to the price of the Product, the Customer must pay on the one hand the different delivery costs in particular according to the geographical area concerned, the delivery method chosen, the volume and weight of the package and on the other hand, any processing costs indicated before the validationof the order by the Customer.

4.4 – Late payment

In case of late payment, penalties will be payable without the need for a reminder in accordance with the law. These penalties are three times of the legal rate in force in addition to the legal lump sum compensation for recovery costs of €40.

In addition, any delay in payment will automatically entail, if BYSTAMP sees fit, the suspension of the execution ofthe current claims, the cancellation of all assets, discounts or rebates excluding taxes acquired on invoices drawn up or to be established, as well as the immediate exigibility of the totality of any claim of BYSTAMP.

In the event of non-payment, fifteen calendar days after the first presentation of a formal notice remained unsuccessful, BYSTAMP may terminate the unpaid claims in progress and whether or not their payment is due. BYSTAMP will then keep any deposits paid without prejudice to any other damages and any other costs.

The Customer shall refrain from taking cause of a claim against BYSTAMP to defer payment of an invoice in whole or in part.  BYSTAMP reserves the right, at any time, to set or reduce the Customer's outstanding amount and to adapt its payment terms.

In the event of non-payment, and in addition to the fixed legal compensation mentioned above, the Customer will bear all costs caused by the failure to pay on the due date, including the fees of ministerial officers and judicial officers.


ARTICLE 5 – PAYMENT

Payment of the full price of the order must be made when ordering.

The receipt of payment by BYSTAMP triggers the preparation of the order and then its availability.

Any payment made by the Customer before delivery is not considered as a deposit.

5.2 –The Customer guarantees BYSTAMP that he has the necessary authorizations to use the payment method chosen by him, during the validation of the order form.  BYSTAMP reserves the right to refuse to make a delivery or to honor an order from a Customer who has not fully paid for this order or partially a previous order or with whom a dispute is being managed.


ARTICLE 6 – RETENTION OF TITLE CLAUSE

BYSTAMP retains ownership of the KEYMO sold until the effective payment of the full price in principal and accessories.
Failure to pay, even partial, may result in the claim of KEYMO.

The transfer of ownership of KEYMO is suspended until full payment of the price thereof by the Customer, in principal and accessories, even if payment terms are granted. Any clause to the contrary, in particular inserted in the general conditions of purchase, is deemed notto be written, in accordance with Article L. 624-16 of the French Commercial Code.

By express agreement, BYSTAMP may enforce the rights it holds under this retention of title clause, for any of its claims, on all KEYMO in the Customer's possession, the latter being conventionally presumed to be those unpaid, and BYSTAMP may take them back or claim them as compensation for all its unpaid invoices, without prejudice to its right to cancel ongoing sales.

In the event of the opening of a receivership or liquidation procedure, orders in progress will be automatically cancelled, and BYSTAMP reserves the right to claim KEYMO in stock.

This clause does not prevent the risks of KEYMO from being transferred to the Customer as soon as they are issued.


ARTICLE 7 – INDISPONIBILITY OF KEYMO

According to the Customer's order duly paid, BYSTAMP will proceed to the shipment of the KEYMO. The Customer is informed and accepts that KEYMO are delivered within the limits of available stocks.

BYSTAMP informs the Customer by e-mail, as soon as he becomes aware of an unavailability and informs him of the period within which the KEYMO or KEYMO will be available.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, BYSTAMP cannot be held responsible for any delays attributable to the manufacturers of KEYMO components or to the companies in charge of their shipment. In such a case, BYSTAMP will inform the Customer as soon as possible of these possible delays if he becomes aware of them.

A delay in delivery of KEYMO less than 30 calendar days is not a sufficient element to lead to the cancellation of the sale by the Customer, since this delay is attributable to the manufacturers or companies in charge of their shipment or to the Customer himself.


ARTICLE 8 – DELIVERY

8.1 – The Customer is delivered to the delivery address indicated by him when registering the order.

BYSTAMP reserves the right to refuse delivery in certain places, in the event that the security of delivery is not ensured.

Delivery is made by a carrier referenced according to the delivery area. The carrier will proceed to the delivery of the order to the Customer himself or to the third party, natural person designated by the Customer or to any authorized person representing the Customer. Delivery is made against signature of the Customer or the designated or authorized third party, placed on the delivery receipt and possibly on presentation of the documents necessary for the identification of the Customer or the designated recipient.

8.2 - In case of incomplete address, wrong address, refusal of the package by the recipient or any other lack of information about the place of delivery, BYSTAMP can not be held responsible.

Similarly, in the event of the recipient's absence, BYSTAMP cannot be held responsible for any damage that the Customer may allege.

In the event of an error in the delivery address, a problem of accessibility at the place of delivery, or any other problem resulting in the need to make a new delivery, the latter may be invoiced at the actual costs, it being understood that only the payment of these additional costs will allow the new delivery.

8.3 - If the order could not be delivered to the Customer at the time of the first presentation, the Customer must within 48 hours contact the carrier to agree on a date of withdrawal of the order at the places designated by the carrier.

8.4 - BYSTAMP undertakes to deliver to the carrier, KEYMO in good condition and properly packaged. It is the Customer's responsibility to check the packaging and KEYMO on delivery (damage, missing product compared to the delivery note, damaged package, damaged products ...)  and, where appropriate, to issue immediate reservations to engage the carrier's possible liability. In the absence of clear and precise reserves indicating the nature of the damage and the number of parts concerned KEYMO will be deemed to be delivered in good condition. Vague statements such as "subject to [...]" have no value. The Customer is required to confirm to the carrier the reservations made at the time of delivery, within 48 hours of the date of delivery and by LRAR and to send a copy for information to BYSTAMP at  serviceclient@bystamp.com.


ARTICLE 9 – THE LEGAL GUARANTEE

9.1 - BYSTAMP is responsible for defects in the thing sold within the meaning of articles 1641 and following of the Civil Code. The warranty is applicable on presentation of the purchase invoice.

Defects or deterioration caused by natural wear and tear or non-compliant use, or by modification, made by the Customer or a third party, not foreseen or specified by BYSTAMP are excluded from the warranty.

It is recalled that the legal guarantee does not apply when the damage is related to an external cause of the Product such as accident, shock, lightning, fluctuation of the current, electrical overload, etc. or because of the Customer such as non-compliance with the standards of use of the Product.

The Customer must ensure throughout the duration of his use of the Solution compliance with the conditions of use of the KEYMO in accordance with its operating specifications (temperature, humidity, cleanliness, etc.).

It is recalled that the Customer may bring the action for guarantee of hidden defects within a period of two (2) years from the discovery of the hidden defect in accordance with Article 1648 of the Civil Code.

In any case, the Customer must justify the date of the beginning of use by sending a copy of the purchase invoice when sending the defective KEYMO.

9.2 - In case of recognition of the defect of the KEYMO, the return costs incurred by the Customer for the request for warranty as well as the costs of reshipment are the responsibility of BYSTAMP.

On the other hand, if the malfunction does not fall under the guarantee, the KEYMO is reshipped at the Customer's expense. The costs of returning the KEYMO for the warranty request will also be borne by the Customer.

9.3 - In case of recognition of the hidden defect, the Customer may choose between the resolution of the sale or a reduction of the price in accordance with Article 1644 of the Civil Code.


ARTICLE 10 - RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us of your decision to withdraw from this contract by sending us a letter to BYSTAMP – 3 rue Louis de BROGLIE - 56000 VANNES, FRANCE, or an email to chatsupport@bystamp.com, before returning your item. The simple return of the goods without declaration or the refusal to take delivery are not sufficient to express your desire to withdraw.

This letter or email must mention the date and number of the initial invoice.

If you withdraw from this contract, we will refund all payments we have received from you, including shipping costs (except for additional costs arising from your choice of a different method of delivery than less expensive standard that we offer) no later than fourteen days from the day on which you informed us of your decision to withdraw from this contract. We will refund you using the same payment method used in the original transaction, unless you explicitly agree to a different method. In any case, this refund will not cost you any fees.

We withhold reimbursement until we have received the item.

You must return the item to us at BYSTAMP – 3 rue Louis de BROGLIE - 56000 VANNES, FRANCE without undue delay and, in any event, no more than fourteen days after notifying us of your withdrawal from this contract.

The costs related to the return of the products remain your responsibility.

You are only liable for the loss of value of the product resulting from handling beyond that necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and proper functioning of the product.

Specific rules and exceptions

ARTICLE 13 - SETTLEMENT OF DISPUTES

This Agreement is governed by French law.

Any dispute relating to the Contract, resulting in particular from its signature, execution, interpretation, termination, or validity, must imperatively be the subject of an attempt at an amicable solution by the Parties.

4.2 – Modification of tariffs

BYSTAMP may change the prices of its Products at any time.  However, the changes will not apply to orders once the contract of sale has been validly formed.

 

4.3 – Frais de livraison et Frais de traitement

En sus du prix du Produit, le Client devra régler d’une part les frais de livraison différents notamment selon la zone géographique concernée, le mode de livraison choisi, le volume et le poids du colis et d’autre part, d’éventuels frais de traitement indiqués avant la validation de la commande par le Client.

 

4.4 – Late payment

En cas de retard de paiement, des pénalités seront exigibles sans qu’un rappel ne soit nécessaire conformément à la loi. Ces pénalités s’élèvent à trois fois le taux légal en vigueur en sus de l’indemnité forfaitaire légale pour frais de recouvrement de 40€.

Au surplus, tout retard de paiement entraînera de plein droit, si bon semble à BYSTAMP, la suspension de l’exécution des commandes en cours, l'annulation de tous avoirs, remises ou ristournes hors taxes acquis sur factures établies ou à établir, ainsi que l’exigibilité immédiate de la totalité de toute créance de BYSTAMP.

 

In the event of non-payment, fifteen calendar days after the first presentation of a formal notice remained unsuccessful, BYSTAMP may terminate the unpaid claims in progress and whether or not their payment is due.  BYSTAMP will then keep any deposits paid without prejudice to any other damages and any other costs.

 

Le Client s'interdira de prendre motif d'une réclamation contre BYSTAMP pour différer le règlement d'une facture en tout ou partie. BYSTAMP se réserve le droit, à tout moment, de fixer ou réduire l'encours du Client et d'adapter ses délais de paiement.

 

En cas de défaut de paiement, et en sus de l’indemnité légale forfaitaire mentionnée ci-dessus, le Client prendra en charge tous les frais occasionnés par le défaut de paiement à l’échéance, y compris les honoraires d’officiers ministériels et d’auxiliaires de justice.

 

ARTICLE 5 – PAYMENT

5.1 – Le paiement de la totalité du prix de la commande doit être effectué lors de la commande.

La réception du paiement par BYSTAMP déclenche la préparation de la commande puis sa mise à disposition.

Tout paiement réalisé par le Client avant la livraison n’est considéré ni comme un acompte ni comme un arrhe.

 

5.2 – Le Client garantit BYSTAMP qu'il dispose des autorisations nécessaires pour utiliser le mode de paiement choisi par lui, lors de la validation du bon de commande. BYSTAMP se réserve le droit de refuser d'effectuer une livraison ou d'honorer une commande émanant d'un Client qui n'aurait pas réglé totalement la présente commande ou partiellement une commande précédente ou avec lequel un litige serait en cours de gestion.

 

ARTICLE 6 – RETENTION OF TITLE CLAUSE

BYSTAMP conserve la propriété des KEYMO vendus jusqu’au paiement effectif de l’intégralité du prix en principal et accessoires. Le défaut de paiement, même partiel, peut entraîner la revendication des KEYMO.

Le transfert de propriété des KEYMO est suspendu jusqu'à complet paiement du prix de ceux-ci par le Client, en principal et accessoires, même en cas d'octroi de délais de paiement. Toute clause contraire, notamment insérée dans les conditions générales d'achat, est réputée non écrite, conformément à l'article L. 624-16 du Code de commerce.

By express agreement, BYSTAMP may enforce the rights it holds under this retention of title clause, for any of its claims, on all KEYMO in the Customer's possession, the latter being conventionally presumed to be those unpaid, and BYSTAMP may take them back or claim them as compensation for all its unpaid invoices, without prejudice to its right to cancel ongoing sales.

En cas d’ouverture d’une procédure de redressement judiciaire ou de liquidation judiciaire, les commandes en cours seront automatiquement annulées, et BYSTAMP se réserve le droit de revendiquer les KEYMO en stock.

This clause does not prevent the risks of KEYMO from being transferred to the Customer as soon as they are issued.

 

ARTICLE 7 – INDISPONIBILITE DES KEYMOS

According to the Customer's order duly paid, BYSTAMP will proceed to the shipment of the KEYMO.
The Customer is informed and accepts that KEYMO are delivered within the limits of available stocks.

BYSTAMP informs the Customer by e-mail, as soon as he becomes aware of an unavailability and informs him of the period within which the KEYMO or KEYMO will be available.

  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, BYSTAMP cannot be held responsible for any delays attributable to the manufacturers of KEYMO components or to the companies in charge of their shipment.  In such a case, BYSTAMP will inform the Customer as soon as possible of these possible delays if he becomes aware of them.

Un retard de livraison des KEYMO inférieur à 30 jours calendaires ne constitue pas un élément suffisant pour entraîner l’annulation de la vente par le Client, dès lors que ce retard est imputable aux fabricants ou aux sociétés en charge de leur expédition ou au Client lui-même.

 

ARTICLE 8 – DELIVERY

8.1 – Le Client est livré à l'adresse de livraison indiquée par lui lors de l'enregistrement de la commande.

BYSTAMP reserves the right to refuse delivery in certain places, in the event that the security of delivery is not ensured

The carrier will proceed to the delivery of the order to the Customer himself or to the third party, natural person designated by the Customer or to any authorized person representing the Customer. Delivery is made against signature of the Customer or the designated or authorized third party, placed on the delivery receipt and possibly on presentation of the documents necessary for the identification of the Customer or the designated recipient.

 

8.2 - En cas d’adresse incomplète, de mauvaise adresse, de refus du colis par le destinataire ou de tout autre manque d’information au sujet du lieu de livraison, BYSTAMP ne saurait en être tenue responsable.

De même, en cas d’absence du destinataire, BYSTAMP ne pourra être tenue responsable de tout préjudice que le Client pourrait alléguer.

En cas d’erreur d'adresse de livraison, de problème d'accessibilité au lieu de livraison, ou de tout autre problème entrainant la nécessité d'effectuer une nouvelle livraison, cette dernière pourra faire l'objet d'une facturation aux frais réels, étant entendu que seul le paiement de ces frais additionnels permettra la nouvelle livraison.

 

8.3 - Si la commande n'a pu être livrée au Client lors de la première présentation, le Client devra dans les 48 heures prendre contact avec le transporteur pour convenir d'une date de retrait de la commande dans les locaux désignés par le transporteur.

 

8.4 - BYSTAMP s’engage à livrer au transporteur, des KEYMO en bon état et correctement emballés. Il appartient au Client de vérifier les conditionnements et les KEYMO à la livraison (avarie, produit manquant par rapport au bon de livraison, colis endommagé, produits abîmés…) et, le cas échéant, d’émettre immédiatement des réserves pour engager la responsabilité éventuelle du transporteur. A défaut de réserves claires et précises indiquant la nature des dégâts et le nombre de pièces concernées (« carton abîmé sur le côté gauche », « rayure », « trace de coup » etc.), les KEYMO seront réputés être livrés en bon état. Les mentions vagues telles que « sous réserve de […] » n’ont aucune valeur. Le Client est tenu de confirmer au transporteur les réserves émises lors de la livraison, dans les 48 heures de la date de livraison et par LRAR et d’en adresser une copie pour information à BYSTAMP à serviceclient@bystamp.com.

 

ARTICLE 9 – THE LEGAL GUARANTEE

9.1 - BYSTAMP est garant des défauts de la chose vendue au sens des articles 1641 et suivants du Code civil. La garantie est applicable sur présentation de la facture d’achat.

Les défauts ou détériorations provoqués par l’usure naturelle ou par une utilisation non-conforme, ou encore par la modification, effectuée par le Client ou un tiers, non prévue ou spécifiée par BYSTAMP sont exclus de la garantie.

It is recalled that the legal guarantee does not apply when the damage is related to an external cause of the Product such as accident, shock, lightning, fluctuation of the current, electrical overload, etc. or because of the Customer such as non-compliance with the standards of use of the Product.

The Customer must ensure throughout the duration of his use of the Solution compliance with the conditions of use of the KEYMO in accordance with its operating specifications (temperature, humidity, cleanliness, etc.).

 

The hidden defect means a failure to carry out the KEYMO making it unfit for its use and not likely to be detected by the Customer before its use. It is recalled that the Customer may bring the action for guarantee of hidden defects within a period of two (2) years from the discovery of the hidden defect in accordance with Article 1648 of the Civil Code.

In any case, the Customer must justify the date of the beginning of use by sending a copy of the purchase invoice when sending the defective KEYMO.

 

9.2 - In case of recognition of the defect of the KEYMO, the return costs incurred by the Customer for the request for warranty as well as the costs of reshipment are the responsibility of BYSTAMP.

On the other hand, if the malfunction does not fall under the guarantee, the KEYMO is reshipped at the Customer's expense.
The costs of returning the KEYMO for the warranty request will also be borne by the Customer.

 

9.3 - En cas de reconnaissance du vice caché, le Client peut choisir entre la résolution de la vente ou une réduction du prix conformément à l'article 1644 du Code civil.

 

ARTICLE 10 - RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

Si vous êtes un Client particulier consommateur, vous disposez d’un droit de rétractation de quatorze (14) jours.

ARTICLE 5 – PAYMENT

5.1 – Payment of the full price of the order must be made when ordering.

The receipt of payment by BYSTAMP triggers the preparation of the order and then its availability.

Any payment made by the Customer before delivery is not considered as a deposit.


5.2 – The Customer guarantees BYSTAMP that he has the necessary authorizations to use the payment method chosen by him, during the validation of the order form. BYSTAMP reserves the right to refuse to make a delivery or to honor an order from a Customer who has not fully paid for this order or partially a previous order or with whom a dispute is being managed.


ARTICLE 6 – RETENTION OF TITLE CLAUSE

BYSTAMP retains ownership of the KEYMO sold until the effective payment of the full price in principal and accessories.

Failure to pay, even partial, may result in the claim of KEYMO.

The transfer of ownership of KEYMO is suspended until full payment of the price thereof by the Customer, in principal and accessories, even if payment terms are granted. Any clause to the contrary, in particular inserted in the general conditions of purchase, is deemed notto be written, in accordance with Article L. 624-16 of the French Commercial Code.

By express agreement, BYSTAMP may enforce the rights it holds under this retention of title clause, for any of its claims, on all KEYMO in the Customer's possession, the latter being conventionally presumed to be those unpaid, and BYSTAMP may take them back or claim them as compensation for all its unpaid invoices, without prejudice to its right to cancel ongoing sales.

In the event of the opening of a receivership or liquidation procedure, orders in progress will be automatically cancelled, and BYSTAMP reserves the right to claim KEYMO in stock.

This clause does not prevent the risks of KEYMO from being transferred to the Customer as soon as they are issued.


ARTICLE 7 – INDISPONIBILITY OF KEYMO

The Customer is informed and accepts that KEYMO are delivered within the limits of available stocks.

In such a case, BYSTAMP will inform the Customer as soon as possible of these possible delays if he becomes aware of them.

A delay in delivery of KEYMO less than 30 calendar days is not a sufficient element to lead to the cancellation of the sale by the Customer, since this delay is attributable to the manufacturers or companies in charge of their shipment or to the Customer himself.


ARTICLE 8 – DELIVERY

8.1 – The Customer is delivered to the delivery address indicated by him when registering the order.

BYSTAMP reserves the right to refuse delivery in certain places, in the event that the security of delivery is not ensured.

Similarly, in the event of the recipient's absence, BYSTAMP cannot be held responsible for any damage that the Customer may allege.

ARTICLE 9 – THE LEGAL GUARANTEE

9.1 - BYSTAMP is responsible for defects in the thing sold within the meaning of articles 1641 and following of the Civil Code.

The warranty is applicable on presentation of the purchase invoice.

Defects or deterioration caused by natural wear and tear or non-compliant use, or by modification, made by the Customer or a third party, not foreseen or specified by BYSTAMP are excluded from the warranty.

It is recalled that the legal guarantee does not apply when the damage is related to an external cause of the Product such as accident, shock, lightning, fluctuation of the current, electrical overload, etc. or because of the Customer such as non-compliance with the standards of use of the Product.

The Customer must ensure throughout the duration of his use of the Solution compliance with the conditions of use of the KEYMO in accordance with its operating specifications (temperature, humidity, cleanliness, etc.).

The hidden defect means a failure to carry out the KEYMO making it unfit for its use and not likely to be detected by the Customer before its use. It is recalled that the Customer may bring the action for guarantee of hidden defects within a period of two (2) years from the discovery of the hidden defect in accordance with Article 1648 of the Civil Code.

In any case, the Customer must justify the date of the beginning of use by sending a copy of the purchase invoice when sending the defective KEYMO.


9.2 - In case of recognition of the defect of the KEYMO, the return costs incurred by the Customer for the request for warranty as well as the costs of reshipment are the responsibility of BYSTAMP.

On the other hand, if the malfunction does not fall under the guarantee, the KEYMO is reshipped at the Customer's expense.

The costs of returning the KEYMO for the warranty request will also be borne by the Customer.


9.3 - In case of recognition of the hidden defect, the Customer may choose between the resolution of the sale or a reduction of the price in accordance with Article 1644 of the Civil Code.

This letter or email must mention the date and number of the initial invoice.

If you withdraw from this contract, we will refund all payments we have received from you, including shipping costs (except for additional costs arising from your choice of a different method of delivery than less expensive standard that we offer) no later than fourteen days from the day on which you informed us of your decision to withdraw from this contract. We will refund you using the same payment method used in the original transaction, unless you explicitly agree to a different method. In any case, this refund will not cost you any fees.

We withhold reimbursement until we have received the item.

You must return the item to us at BYSTAMP – 3 rue Louis de BROGLIE - 56000 VANNES, FRANCE without undue delay and, in any event, no more than fourteen days after notifying us of your withdrawal from this contract.
