1 – PURPOSE AND SCOPE

The purpose of these terms of sale (hereinafter ToS) is to define all the contractual relations between EDITION BOUGAINVILLE (hereinafter the Company or the Seller), specialised in creating high-end carpets (hereinafter the products) and any natural person or legal entity whether or not it is for business purposes (hereinafter the Client) who wishes to order the products.

These ToS apply as from 1/1/2020 for orders in France and abroad.

Any order or sale is subject to these ToS which the Client expressly declares to fully acknowledge and accept without any reservation. These ToS prevail over any other document (including catalogues, brochures, advertising and the Client’s purchase terms, etc.).

These ToS are provided to any Client who requests them so that they can issue an order to the Seller, as well as any distributor prior to entering into a unique agreement mentioned in Article L.441-7 of the Commercial Code, within the statutory time limits.

The fact that the Seller does not avail itself at any given moment of any clause in these ToS cannot be construed as a waiver of any of these clauses at a later date.

The Seller reserves the right to modify its ToS at any time. The applicable ToS are those in effect on the date that the order is placed by the Client.

2 - ORDERS
2.1 DEFINITIONS
Two types of products can be ordered from the Company by the Client:
- A ‘standard’ product order in which the Client selects a product from the catalogues which has not been modified in any way with respect to the selection on offer.
- A ‘customised’ product order in which the Client calls on the Seller’s creative skills in order to create a product that is not included in the Sellers existing product range.
2.2 DRAWING UP AN AGREEMENT
Any order is formalised by singing a quotation issued by the Company, duly dated by the Client with the following handwritten phrase: “I AGREE AND ACCEPT” and accompanied with the down payment mentioned in the quotation.
Given the scarcity and quality of materials used to manufacture the products, any sale is only completed once the order has been expressly accepted by electronic transmission by the Seller, provided the down payment has been fully paid.
2.3 TERM OF THE OFFER VALIDITY
The sales offer mentioned on the quotation is valid provided that the Client signs the quotation, confirming the agreement, within thirty (30) days from the date mentioned on the quotation. After that date, the Seller reserves the right to either maintain its offer or make a new updated offer.
2.4 MODIFICATION, CANCELLATION AND REFUSAL OF THE ORDER
Since the orders are firm and final, any request to even partially change or cancel is subject to the Seller’s explicit acceptance.
The Seller undertakes to deliver a product that is compliant with the order.
If an ordered element or product is not available, the Seller will offer to supply an equivalent element or product capable of replacing the ordered element or product to the Client, who must give its consent.
If the Client does not consent, the unavailability of the ordered element or product will result in the order being cancelled and the Client receiving a refund within two (2) months from the Client’s refusal without any compensation.
The Seller may nevertheless make changes to the ordered product which are associated with the technological development under the conditions provided for in Article R,212-4 of the Consumer Code.
The Company reserves the right to refuse the order in cases where the Client's requests and demands are not consistent with the criteria required for a quality finished product. In such a case, the Client shall be informed of any difficulties, and if it insists that the Company nevertheless provide the service, no guarantee can be given as to the result of the final product, which the Client expressly accepts.
2.5 PROVISIONS CONCERNING ‘CUSTOMISED’ PRODUCTS.
Without affecting the application of the other clauses in these ToS, an order for ‘customised products’ is made after the Company receives a final approval of the pre-production sample (hereinafter referred to as PPS) created according to the Client’s specifications and signed by it, without mentioning any reservations. The PPS must be returned via email at the following address: info@editionbougainville.com
The Company may not start production for the order until the Client has given its approval. As soon as the Client accepts the proposed PPS, no other modification or cancellation may be made, since the order is automatically sent to the production department.
The PPS is valid as long as the Client signs the agreement within thirty (30) days from the date indicated on the PPS. After that date, the Seller reserves the right to either maintain its offer or make a new updated offer.
The cost analysis required for the PPS is at performed no cost to the Client. Nevertheless, in the event that three (3) successive PPS have been performed for a same Client, the costs associated with this work shall be invoiced at 1000 euros per analysis as well as the samples at 100 euros per sample.
By signing the PPS, the Client accepts full liability. The Company may not be held liable for faults and errors which may have escaped the Client’s attention when creating and approving the PPS. The Client must therefore accept full liability.
The Company will make every effort to ensure that the representation (in soft or hard copy) and the product specifications shown on the PPS are as faithful as possible to the final products.
Nevertheless, given the materials used, the manufacturing processes, the PPS representations and the media used, it is possible that there may be a difference between the product as represented by the PPS and actual, physical manufactured product in terms of size, colour shades, shape and patterns.
Since all the products are hand-knotted or hand-woven, the size may vary up to 5%. Such variations are normal with hand-made products and are due to the tension in the knotting or weaving looms and the meteorological conditions at the time of manufacturing.
The products are hand dyed, so slight colour variations are possible. When ordering the product, the samples must be considered as a reference point, but not as the exact final colour of your product.
Colours can change depending on the humidity and heat when the wools and silks are dyed. Exposing natural fibres such as wool, linen and silk to the sun's ultra violet rays may lead to a partial fading.
The products are crafted by qualified craftsmen and women and they are subjected to many quality controls during manufacturing. However, these are entirely hand-made products. Each article is unique. The colours and sizes can vary slightly from one article to the next.
The Company may not therefore accept liability for such variations in size, colour or shape in the delivered product which is inherent to the manufacturing process.

It is expressly agreed that the products sold remain the property of the Seller until it has collected all sums due.

Otherwise the Client will be barred by limitation in all its claims, including financial. Accordingly, it may not ask the courts to refund or issue claims for damages. By express agreement, the Client declares to have no intention of using its right under Article 1223 of the Civil Code in any legal proceedings.

In any event, if Seller is sanctioned for any reason whatsoever, the cumulative amount of damages for which the Seller may be liable is expressly limited to the sums expressly collected by it for the Sales for which it has accepted liability over a maximum period of twelve (12) months.

10 - EXCLUSION OF ANY PREDETERMINED FINES

No predetermined penalty which may feature in the sales documents issued by the Client shall be enforceable against the Seller, excepting the prior written agreement, regardless of the reason for the penalty.

In any case, the Client may only potentially claim redress for the harm it has actually suffered, as demonstrating and assessed by common consent with the Seller.

11 - FORCE MAJEURE EVENTS

The Seller shall be released from its obligations for any event that is outside of its control which prevents or delays manufacturing and/or delivering the products, contractually assimilated to force majeure.

In such circumstances, the affected Vendor must inform the Client in writing, either by fax or email in accordance with the notification procedure, within 48 hours from the date on which the events occurred. The Agreement binding the Seller to the Client will then be automatically suspended without any right to compensation, as from the date the event occurred.

If the event lasts more than thirty (30) days as from the notification date, the sales agreement may be terminated immediately, by registered letter with proof of delivery by the first party to take action, without either Parties being entitled to claim for damages.

This termination shall take effect on the date the registered letter terminating the sales agreement was first presented for delivery.

15 - PROOF OF EVIDEDENCE

In accordance with Articles 1365, 1367 and 1368 of the Civil Code, the information issued by the Seller shall prevail between the Parties. In the context of the services and the product sales, the Company and the Client intend to set the rules governing the admissible proof between them in the event of a dispute and their probative value. The provisions which follow therefore constitute the proof of evidence agreed between the parties, who commit to comply with this article. The Company and the Client undertake to accept that in the event of a dispute, the data from any Company document, recorded computer data or telephone conversation, as well as any information sent by the Client, such as but not limited to photographs, letters, emails, constitute the proof of acceptance of that these terms whether or not by electronic means, the acceptance all offers, all services and payment methods, and the express waiver of the cooling off period.
