Any validation of an order via the Site entails full acceptance of the General Conditions by the Customer, without reservation. By placing an order, the Customer therefore undertakes to respect the said General Conditions and declares that the Products ordered are not intended for his professional activity.
No special conditions other than those of the LumeVille company can prevail over these General Conditions. Any contrary clause will therefore be unenforceable, regardless of when it may have been brought to the attention of the LumeVille company.
Furthermore, LumeVille reserves the right to modify these General Conditions at any time, the modifications being however only able to apply to orders validated after the update of said General Conditions.
Article 2 – Order process
Before placing an order, the Customer selects the desired Product whose characteristics (in particular name, price, quantity, color, particularities) which he declares to accept, have been transmitted to him or appear on the Site.
The Customer must then provide certain valid identification data necessary to identify them, namely:
- Name, first name, billing address, delivery address if different from the billing address, email address, telephone number.
The Customer can, if he wishes, create an account on the site in order to keep his identification data for a possible next purchase.
The Customer, after checking the box indicating that he has read and accepted the General Conditions, then validates his order and proceeds to pay the price and delivery costs by choosing the payment method, namely PayPal, Apple Pay or Card credit.
A summary of the order will be accessible to the Customer via their Customer account if they have opened one, or by email sent to them after validation of the order. This confirmation email will also contain a copy of the General Conditions in force, which it is the Customer's responsibility to keep.
In the absence of compliance with the General Conditions by the Customer, in particular with regard to the payment of an order, LumeVille reserves the right to suspend its service and, if necessary, suspend or terminate the Customer's account. Prior to any measure in this direction, the Customer will be informed as soon as possible by LumeVille, mentioning the possibility for him to regularize his situation, as well as the possibility of contesting the elements with which he is accused. Consequently, LumeVille reserves the right to refuse any order from a Customer with whom such an unresolved dispute exists.
In accordance with Article 11 of the General Conditions, the Customer has in all cases a right of opposition, access, and rectification of all data concerning him kept by LumeVille.
Article 3 – Price
The prices of Products sold on the LumeVille company website are indicated in euros, all taxes included and are subject to variation during the year. It is however specified that the Products are invoiced at the price in effect when the order is validated by the Customer.
Delivery costs are mentioned separately, at the time of validation of the order, before payment and depend on the delivery option chosen, the nature and weight of the Product ordered. They are therefore invoiced in addition to the price of the Product(s) ordered, unless otherwise expressly mentioned.
Furthermore, for all Products delivered outside the European Union and overseas territories, LumeVille draws the Customer's attention to the fact that customs duties or other local taxes or import duties or state taxes may be requested, to the extent that the Customer is considered an importer of the Products. These duties and taxes are not the responsibility of the LumeVille company. They will be the responsibility of the Customer and are their entire responsibility, both in terms of declarations and payments to the competent authorities and/organizations of the importing country. LumeVille advises the Customer to inquire about these aspects with the local authorities of the country of import.
Article 4 – Payment terms
Payment of the price of the Products ordered is made in cash before delivery, by means of a transfer via PayPal, Apple Pay or credit card, upon ordering, through our secure payment system. Delivery of the Product(s) ordered takes place after confirmation of the agreement of the bank payment centers. In the event of refusal of authorization, the Customer will receive an e-mail notifying him of the cancellation of the order and the reason for this refusal.
The Customer guarantees that he is fully authorized to use Apple Pay, the credit card or the PayPal account used to pay for his order.
For any order exceeding 1,000 euros, LumeVille reserves the right to verify the consistency of the information it has, and to request a photocopy of the buyer's identity card as well as proof of address.

Acceptance of the Customer's order by LumeVille is evidenced by sending the order confirmation email to the Customer.
