The Order confirmation also implies acceptance of Gift Card specifications.

4.3. Order Acceptance by the Seller

The Seller will be able to fulfill the Orders received via the Website from a Customer residing within the territory mentioned in the "Territory" articles of these T&C.

Once the Seller receives the Order placed by the Customer, the Seller will send a detailed receipt for the Customer's Order to the Customer, specifying the amount billed, including all taxes, the applicable VAT amount, and the shipping cost and method for the Order (hereinafter the "Order Form"). This receipt constitutes the Seller's acceptance of the Order placed by the Customer.

If the Client does not receive an email receipt for his/her Order, the Client must assume that the Seller has declined the order. The Client may contact Customer Service for further assistance.

ARTICLE 5: Baby Shower and Gift Registries

The Customer may gather all the Products required for his/her baby's arrival into a Baby Shower Registry / Gift Registry (hereinafter the "List").

The List enables all individuals (family, friends, acquaintances) with whom the Customer shares the List (hereinafter "Loved One" or "Loved Ones"), through the Website, to contribute the full or a partial amount toward the total price of the list or one or more Product(s) on the list, on the Customer's behalf. The Loved One must register on the Website and thus is able to:

- Deposit a lump sum, not affiliated with a specific Product on the List,

- And/or pay the amount corresponding to one or more Products on the List.

The amounts paid are not applied toward any specific Product and can be used only for Orders of Products sold directly by the Seller.

Any and all contributions to a List are final and non-refundable. The Customer reserves the right to view the Products in the store and to apply or reallocate the amounts paid toward the exact Products he/she desires. As a contribution to a List is not a purchase, it is not subject to the Distance Selling Regulation under Articles L221-1 et seq. of the Commercial Code.

The payment methods are specified in the "Prices" article of these T&C.

The pooled funds can be used to pay for any purchase in the store or directly on the website. 

5.1. Customer Identification

If the Customer has an account on the Website, he/she may use his/her valid login and password to access the List page on the Website. Otherwise, he/she will need to create a customer account following the specified process prior to creating his/her List. The login and password thus established will be valid on the Website.

However, if a Customer who does not have an account on the Website created his/her List in person at a Natalys store, he/she must provide an email address in order to create the customer account. In such a case, if the Customer wishes to access his/her List on the Website, he/she will need to visit the "Login" page and click on "Forgot password." An email will then be sent to the Customer with a password that can be used, along with his/her login, to access his/her Customer account and List.

5.2. Creating the List

If the Customer so desires, he/she may give name the List and write a description in the field set aside for that purpose, which will be visible to the Loved Ones. He/she must enter the baby's due date prior to selecting any Products and may enter the full name of his/her partner.

5.3. Customer's Selection of Products

Once logged onto the Website, the Customer may select the Products he/she wishes to receive by clicking the "Add to My List" tab on the Product descriptions. Only Products sold on the Website may be added to the List. Moreover, the Customer may modify his/her choices at any time. As Product availability may vary while the List is online, the Customer is encouraged to check it regularly. Any change in Product availability will appear automatically on the List.

5.4. Sharing the List

After approving the List, the Customer may notify Loved Ones using a module on the Website. The Customer may continue adding to the List after sending a message to the Loved Ones. The Loved Ones will then receive an email at the address provided by the Customer, providing directions for use and a direct link to the List. The Customer may also post the List to social media sites (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram), if desired, by clicking the icons provided. He/she must then log onto his/her personal account on the social media site in question in order for a link to the List to appear on his/her personal page.

5.5. Period of Validity of the List

The List created by the Customer will be valid for a period of 270 days from the date of creation (subject to activity). The Customer may close the List at any time, or when the balance of gifts made (hereinafter the "Pool") reaches zero (0) and no other Products remain pending. If the Customer does not close his/her List after a period of 270 days, the Seller reserves the right to close the Pool automatically and issue an e-gift card, in the Customer's name, in an amount equal to the remaining funds. The e-gift card thus issued will be valid for use on the Website or in the store, with no minimum purchase required, for a period of one year. In the event of fraudulent use of the List by the Customer, the Seller reserves the right to close the List after providing notice to the Customer.

ARTICLE 6: Product Descriptions

In accordance with Article L. 111-1 of the French Consumer Code, as amended by the French Law of March 17, 2014, the Customer may, prior to placing an Order, learn through the Website the essential characteristics of the Product(s) he/she wishes to purchase.

The Seller may offer to customize certain products for the Client, such as embroidered text on textiles, customizable items, or any special request made by the Customer regarding a Product.

 After placing an order for one or more customized Product(s), the Customer must approve the preview of the selected text in order to ensure the accuracy of the message (particularly in the case of embroidery: the content and color of the message), or approve the preview of the Product or of his/her requests regarding the Product.

The Customer's approval entails his/her full and unreserved acceptance of any product customization instruction as submitted to the Seller.

The Customer shall assume sole responsibility for the text selected for customization of his/her Product. The Customer undertakes:

- to respect existing intellectual property rights (in particular: brands, copyright, personality rights, etc.),

- not to submit any text the content of which may prove to be illicit or contrary to accepted principles of morality (in particular: text of a pornographic or racist nature, etc.)

Under no circumstances shall the Seller be held liable for consequences stemming from the Customer's special requests or for any element of customization carried out for the Customer. 

Store personnel assisting the Customer with an order reserve the right not to accept any order of customized Products that fails to meet the above-mentioned criteria. Likewise, the Seller reserves the right to cancel any such order.

The Gift Card is transferable and its use is the exclusive responsibility of the bearer of the Gift Card. The resale of a Gift Card is strictly prohibited.

Article 8: Description and Terms and Conditions of Use of the Natalys Loyalty Card

In order to obtain a Natalys loyalty card free of charge, simply provide the following information at any Natalys store: surname, given name (required); mailing address, email address, and telephone number (optional).

This card is personal and non-transferable. Only one Loyalty Card is accepted per household (defined as individuals living at the same address). Any change of mailing or email address, or birth of a child, may be updated at any store or on the Website.

The loyalty program allows the bearer of the card to earn points, by presenting the card, on all purchases made at Natalys stores or on the Website.

The accumulated purchase points are non-transferable and cannot be exchanged for cash.

Once the cumulative purchases reach a threshold of €200 including taxes (200 points), a Loyalty Check in the amount of €10 including taxes, bearing the loyalty card number, may be issued in store to the member. This Loyalty Check is valid for 3 months on a later purchase (expiration date shown on the Loyalty Check) and can be used in conjunction with other discounts, upon presentation of the member's loyalty card.

The Loyalty Check is valid exclusively at Natalys stores. This Loyalty Check cannot be exchanged for cash under any circumstances. In the event of loss or theft, the check cannot be reissued. Once the €10 Loyalty Check is issued, the member's loyalty card account is debited 200 points (or 400 points for a €20 Loyalty Check, or 600 points for a €30 Loyalty Check). Torn or damaged Loyalty Checks may be rejected.

In the event that a previous purchase is returned and refunded, the points associated with that refunded purchased will be deducted from the accumulated point total as of the refund date. 

In the event that a previous purchase counted toward the loyalty card is exchanged in the store, the exchange will be accounted for under the following conditions:

• If the exchange is for an item of lesser value, the amount refunded to the customer will be deducted from the Customer's total accumulated points as of the exchange date.

• If the exchange is for an item of greater value, the Customer will pay the difference. That amount will be added to the total accumulated points as of the exchange date. 

The rules, requirements, and benefits described herein may be modified or eliminated, in whole or in part, at any time. In that case, notice of the changes will be posted in the stores and on the Website at least 15 days in advance. No modification or elimination will give rise to any compensation of any kind to the member.

The member must give notice, at a Natalys store, of any loss or theft of his/her loyalty card. A new card will then be issued to him/her. The unused purchase points will be transferred to the new card.

In accordance with Regulation (EU) No. 2016/679, known as the General Data Protection Regulation, you have a right to access and rectification of your data, which you may exercise by sending an email to rgpd@groupe-gpe.com or by writing to:

Article 9: Prices, Discounts, and Loyalty Checks

9.1. Applicable Prices

Any Order is understood as the Customer's acceptance of the prices and descriptions of the Products and services offered for sale on the Website.

The prices are listed in euros and include VAT and all other applicable taxes. They do not include shipping fees, which are payable by the Customer. The value-added tax (VAT) applied to the Order is always the rate in force as of the date of the Order.

The Seller is free to modify the sale price of its Products and services at any time. Should one or more taxes or assessed contributions be established, increased, or decreased, that change may be reflected in the sale price of the Products listed on the Seller's Website.

However, the Seller undertakes to charge the Customer the prices and taxes indicated to the Customer upon confirmation of his/her Order. Moreover, the Customer is notified of the shipping and handling fees for his/her Order upon checking the shopping cart and upon placing the Order.

9.2. Discount Offers

Offers, codes, and coupons (hereinafter "Discount(s)" are valid only for the period and subject to the terms of the offer in question. Under no circumstances can they be converted into a refund or cash due to the Customer.

The Discounts can be used only by the Customer in question and are not transferable to a third party. They are deducted from the Order total, including all taxes but excluding shipping and handling fees. Unless otherwise stated in a specific Discount offer, Discounts cannot be used in conjunction with one another when placing an Order.

When the Customer enters multiple Discounts on the Website at the same time for the same Order, he/she will only enjoy the Discount with the greatest value.

9.3. Loyalty Check

The loyalty points earned by the Customer over the course of his/her prior purchases from the Seller with presentation of the loyalty card (hereinafter the "Vouchers") can, upon request, earn the Customer loyalty checks at a rate of 10 euros including all taxes per two hundred (200) points. Loyalty checks are specific to the loyalty card number and can be used within three (3) months of issue.

Once the €10 Loyalty Check is issued, the member's loyalty card account is debited 200 points (or 400 points for a €20 Loyalty Check, or 600 points for a €30 Loyalty Check).

The Loyalty Check is valid exclusively at Natalys stores.

The Loyalty Check can be used only by the Customer who holds that loyalty card; it is not transferable to a third party. It is valid under the terms described by the Seller to the Customer, particularly with regard to the expiration date and terms of validity.

Unless otherwise noted on the loyalty check, loyalty checks may be used in conjunction with one another and with other valid discounts, upon presentation of the member's loyalty card. Under no circumstances can loyalty checks be converted into a refund or cash due to the Customer.

The face value of a Loyalty Check must be used in full for one Order; the check may not be divided among multiple Orders.

Loyalty checks are neither exchangeable nor refundable. The Loyalty Check cannot be exchanged for cash under any circumstances. In the event of loss or theft, the check cannot be reissued.

Torn or damaged Loyalty Checks may be rejected.

- If the Loyalty Check amount is less than the total amount (including all taxes but excluding shipping and handling fees) of the Products that the Customer wishes to order, the Customer must pay the difference between those two amounts, as well as the shipping and handling fees for the Products ordered.

- If the Loyalty Check amount is equal to the total amount (including all taxes but excluding shipping and handling fees) of the Products that the Customer wishes to order, the Customer's Order will be confirmed and the Customer must pay only the shipping and handling fees for the Products ordered.

- If, for any reason, an Order is not approved by the electronic payment server, the Loyalty Check will be unavailable for use for 72 hours. After that period, it will be reactivated and may be used by the Customer for a new Order.

The portion of the order total that is paid by loyalty check cannot be refunded. In the event of a refund request for an order paid in full with a loyalty check, the items are therefore non-refundable. In the event of a refund request for an order paid in part with a loyalty check, the Customer will be refunded for the price of the item(s) returned, minus the loyalty check amount, divided (if applicable) by the number of items included in the order.

The Customer will be notified thereof by the Seller.

10.2.3. Any refund made to the Customer's account in the event that an item is unavailable will not give rise to any type of compensation, financial or otherwise.

The Customer warrants to the Seller that he/she possesses the necessary authorization to use the payment method selected when placing his/her Order. Confirmation of the Order is subject to confirmation from the bank payment system selected by the Seller. In the event that the bank declines payment, the Order is not finalized and is canceled. As part of internet fraud prevention initiatives, data regarding the Order and the Customer's payment method may be transmitted by the Seller to any third party for verification purposes.

The Seller, working in collaboration with the bank handling electronic payments, monitors all Orders confirmed on the Website. As a result, any Order in which the shipping address differs from the Customer's billing address may be subject to verification by the Seller. In this context, the Seller may have cause to ask the Customer for information and documents necessary to fulfill the Order: proof of residence of the Customer and/or the person listed at the delivery address, proof of the Customer's banking information, etc. These requests may be made of the Customer by email or telephone.

Should the Client fail to respond or refuse to provide the information necessary to fulfill the Order, the Order will be canceled.

At no time are the Customer's bank card data processed through the Seller's computer system; the Seller's transaction system thus complies with PCI DSS standards. PCI DSS is an international security standard intended to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of collected banking data, thereby protecting data and transactions.

10.5. Payment in Three (3) Installments by Bank Card

"BCx3" is a payment solution in three (3) installments by bank card, allowing the Customer to spread out the payment of an Order totaling between €150 and €2,000 (including delivery) over three (3) payments.

After communicating his/her decision to exercise the right of withdrawal within that fourteen (14)-day period, the Customer has another period of fourteen (14) days in which to return the Product(s) in question (except those mentioned in clauses 11.1.3 and 11.1.4 hereinbelow, which are not subject to return).

12.1.1.2. Terms of Exercise of the Legal Right of Withdrawal

The Customer may exercise the right of withdrawal, without needing to provide a reason for his/her decision, by any means, in particular by mail or email, by expressing his/her intention unambiguously and noting the Order to which the withdrawal pertains.

To exercise his/her right of withdrawal, the Customer may send the standard return form (Annex I), duly  filled out, to us at the following address:

GPE SAS

Natalys Customer Service

49-51 rue Emile Zola

93189 Montreuil Cedex

FRANCE

By email to the following address: customercare@natalys.com

Once the return form or declaration has been sent to the Seller, no later than fourteen (14) days after receipt of the Order, the Customer must send the Product(s) in question to the Seller within a reasonable time frame and no later than within fourteen (14) days of sending the return form or declaration to the Seller.

Products returned by the Customer to the Seller must be addressed to:

Returns are to be made in the original, complete state (packaging, accessories, etc.) so that they can be resold as new.

In the event that the right of withdrawal is exercised, the Seller will refund the full amount paid to the Customer, including the price of the Product(s) included in the return and the delivery fee for the Products ordered by the Customer, prorated according to the value of the Product(s) included in the return. The Seller is not required to refund additional fees to the Customer if the Customer expressly chose a more expensive shipping method than the standard method offered on the Website.

The return shipping fee for the returned Products will not be reimbursed by the Seller.

The refund will be made no later than fourteen (14) days after the return date, using the same payment method as was used for the Order, unless the Customer expressly agrees to a refund using a different payment method. If the Seller fails to make the refund within the period specified above, penalties will be applied in accordance with regulations in force.

The refund date may be postponed until the Product is received or until the Customer provides proof of shipping of the Product. The date used to calculate the refund deadline will be the earlier of those two events.

No refunds will be made in the form of gift certificates or vouchers.

However, in the event of full or partial payment by gift checks, such payments cannot be refunded, whether in cash or by check or bank card. Refunds for purchases made by gift checks will be issued exclusively in the form of gift checks in the exact amount paid by that method.

Any benefits obtained from purchase of the Product, such as through the use of a loyalty card, will be canceled in the event that the Product is returned and refunded.

That period begins:

12.1.4. Gift Cards

In accordance with regulations in force, gift cards that have been edited according to the Customer's specifications, particularly with a personalized message, are expressly excluded from the right of withdrawal.

The Seller disclaims any liability regarding the content of the message, which the Customer must warrant includes no content contrary to the public order, accepted principles of morality, or internet codes of ethics.

If the purchases made online were discounted through Private Sales, only size exchanges may be made in the store.

If the purchases made online included online-exclusive items, it is not possible to conduct exchanges or refunds in the store. It will also be impossible to get a gift certificate voucher in stores. The return can be made only by shipping the item directly to the warehouse.

ARTICLE 13: Legal Guarantees

13.1. Legal Guarantee of Compliance

In accordance with European directives 44/99/EC and 85/374/EEC, the Products enjoy legal guarantees of compliant delivery and against hidden defects, allowing the consumer to return any Products delivered in a non-compliant or defective state.

The Customer must provide evidence of the existence of the defects. The Seller reserves the right to make any on-site observations or verifications, whether directly or indirectly.

If defects or deterioration of the delivered Products occur subsequent to abnormal storage and/or preservation conditions in the Customer's care, and particularly in the event of any type of accident, the Seller will not be liable for the guarantee.

This legal guarantee of compliance is applicable independent of any commercial warranty that may be granted by the Seller.

As a reminder, under the legal guarantee of compliance, the consumer:

• has a period of two years following delivery of the item in which to take action against the seller thereof;

• may choose between repair and replacement of the item, unless the cost of the latter option is plainly excessive;

• is exempt from providing proof of the existence of the item defects during the twenty-four (24) months following delivery of the item.

 

As a reminder, the consumer may decide to invoke the guarantee against hidden defects in the item sold, in which case he/she may choose between cancellation of the purchase or a discounted sale price.

13.2. Commercial Warranty.

In addition to the legal guarantees described in the "Guarantees" article herein, the Customer may enjoy a commercial warranty on certain Products. In order to benefit from the commercial warranty on a Product, it is necessary to keep the purchase receipt for the Product.

13.3 Terms of Return for Defective Products.

In the event that one or more Product(s) are delivered with defects or damage, or do not correspond to the Order, the Customer must return the Product(s) following the procedure described below.

The Products returned to the Seller must have been purchased previously by the Customer through the Website and have been delivered to him/her. They must be accompanied by a return form attached to the packing slip for the Product addressed to the Customer, or attached as a PDF, in order to prove that the Product was purchased on the Website on a specific date.

The Products must be returned to the Seller in the original condition in which the Customer received them, with all parts (accessories, etc.), in suitable packaging for shipment.

The Customer must contact Customer Service as follows:

By postal mail to the following address:

GPE SAS
Natalys Customer Service
49-51 rue Emile Zola
93189 Montreuil Cedex

FRANCE

By email to the following address: customercare@natalys.com
 

Products returned by the Customer to the Seller must be addressed to:

MR LOGISTIQUE
Allée des Peupliers
ZI Plaine de l'Ain
Bat.

The Customer is responsible for the return of the Product to the Seller.

In the event that the legal guarantee of compliance is invoked, the return shipping fees will be reimbursed by the Seller according to the postal rates in force in the territory indicated in the "Territory" article of these T&C.

Beyond the legal withdrawal period and after the Seller's receipt of the return package, the Seller will verify the compliance of the returned Product and the reason for return. If the returned Product does not justify a refund or exchange, the return will be refused by the Seller and the Product will be made available to the Customer at the Seller's warehouses, or it may be shipped to the Customer at the latter's request and expenses, within three (3) months of the Seller's receipt of the Product returned by the Customer.

ARTICLE 14: Intellectual Property.

All copyrights, graphic design rights, depictions, and trademarks, as well as all other intellectual property rights to any information on the Website, remain the exclusive property of the Seller under all circumstances.

Likewise, all elements of the Website, whether visual or audio, including the underlying technologies, brands, logos, drawings, and models appearing on the Website, are protected by copyright, trademarks, or patents and remain the exclusive property of the Seller.

The disclosure thereof shall under no circumstances be construed as the granting of any license or right of use of the said brands and distinctive elements protected by copyright. As a result, they must not be used, under pain of infringement.

Nothing in these T&C, nor in the content of the Website, can be interpreted as granting a direct or implicit license or right other than the right to view the Website.

Therefore, no document on the Website may be copied, reproduced, republished, downloaded, posted, transmitted, or distributed in any manner whatsoever. The reproduction, in whole or in part, of any documents, images, or content published on the Website is authorized solely for the purpose of information for private, personal use. Any reproduction or use of copies made for other purposes without the prior authorization of the Seller is expressly prohibited.

ARTICLE 15: Liability.

15.1. The Seller may exonerate itself from all or part of its liability in the event of the non-performance of its obligations or the poor performance of its obligations by Customer, or to the unforeseeable and insurmountable act of a third party, or to a case of force majeure as defined by law and by the French courts.

The following are considered cases of force majeure or unforeseeable circumstances:
- events outside the control of the parties,
- events that the parties could not reasonably be expected to foresee,
- events that the parties could not reasonably avoid or overcome,
- events the occurrence of which renders the execution of the obligations entirely impossible.

Under such circumstances, the Seller will notify the Customer in writing, in particular by fax or email, within twenty-four (24) hours of the date of occurrence of the events. The T&C that bind the Seller and Customer are then automatically suspended, without compensation, as of the date of occurrence of the event.

15.2. If the events last for more than thirty (30) days following the date of occurrence, the sale contract may be canceled by the earliest petitioner without award of damages. The cancellation will take effect upon first presentation of the written termination of the T&C via registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt.

15.3. Likewise, the Seller cannot be held liable for any inconvenience or harm related to the use of the internet, in particular any interruption of availability of the Website, a break in service, outside interference or the presence of computer viruses, loss or alteration of data or files, or for direct harm, regardless of the causes or consequences thereof.

ARTICLE 16: Electronic Signature, Proof, and Archiving.

The provision of the bank card number online and the final approval of the Order constitute proof of the completeness of the Order and entail the Customer's liability for the total amount of the Order.

The Parties agree that all data, information, files, dates and times of Website viewing and Order placement, and any and all other digital elements exchanged between the Parties will constitute means of valid, admissible, actionable evidence between the Parties and in courts of law, having the probative force of a privately signed document.

The Parties undertake not to contest the admissibility, validity, actionability, or probative force of the elements listed above in electronic form, on the basis of their electronic nature. In the absence of evidence to the contrary, these elements will be valid and actionable between the Parties in the same manner, under the same conditions, and with the same probative force as any document that may be drawn up, recorded, or preserved in writing in 

accordance with Article 1366 of the French Civil Code. The Seller archives Order Forms and invoices on a durable, reliable medium, which constitutes a complete and durable copy.

In the event of fraudulent use of his/her bank card by a third party, the Customer is urged to notify the Seller immediately, either in writing or by calling Customer Service, providing the Seller the bank card number in question, the Order date, and proof of his/her identity. However, this notification does not give rise to a right to reparation on the Customer's part, nor to any reimbursement by the Seller. If applicable, a request for the reparation or reimbursement of the Customer may be directed by the Customer to the issuing bank of the bank card in question, under the terms established by law and by the applicable contract with the bank in question.
