These possible differences cannot under any circumstances be interpreted as defects of conformity that could lead to the cancellation of the sale.

Any dissimilarities or non-substantial errors, in particular technical or typographical errors, which may have been introduced, shall in no case engage the responsibility of DCM and give rise to a claim on the part of the Buyer.

DCM shall offer to supply the Buyer with a Creation of equivalent quality and price.
If the Buyer accepts, in the context of exercising his/her right of withdrawal, the costs of returns shall then be borne by DCM.

The sale price of the Creations is that stipulated on the Site.
The price of the Creations sold on the Site is indicated respectively, per item, in Euros (€) and all taxes included (VAT included), on the basis of the prices communicated to the Buyer and include standard packaging costs.
The prices indicated do not include delivery costs, which are added to the total amount due. These costs will be notified to you at the latest at the time of confirmation of your order.
The telecommunication costs inherent to access to the Site remain the exclusive responsibility of the Buyer.
At the time of Order Validation, the price to be paid is the all-inclusive price indicated in the shopping basket.
For sales outside the European Union, prices are understood to be ex Paris. Customs clearance and the payment of various duties or taxes are the responsibility of the Buyer.
The period of validity of the Prices is determined by the updating of the Site.
The prices of the Creations may be modified at any time, without notice. However, the Creations will be invoiced on the basis of the price list in force at the time of the confirmation of your Order.
Any change in the applicable VAT rate will automatically be reflected in the selling price of the Products.
Under no circumstances shall the prices appearing on the Site at the time an Order is placed bind DCM for future orders.

It is recalled that in accordance with Article 4 of these Terms and Conditions of Sale, the prices displayed on the Site are indicated in Euros, all taxes included, excluding delivery costs.
In the event of a delivery outside the European Union or in the DOM-TOM,

- customs duties or other local taxes may be required, which are your sole responsibility and are your sole responsibility, both in terms of declaration and payment, which you accept without reservation.
You are invited to check with your local authorities prior to placing your Order.

- The prices displayed on the Site will be invoiced after deduction of VAT.
These prices are to be understood as "delivered duty unpaid", as DCM is unable to provide you with accurate information on the total amount of the costs relating to customs duties and formalities, import taxes applicable in the country where delivery is requested.

- DCM shall in no event be liable to reimburse you for any fees, taxes or customs duties paid by you in connection with your Order.

For all practical purposes, this information relating to the payment of additional costs in the event of delivery outside the territory of the European Union or in the French overseas departments and territories shall be specified on the Site to any Customer indicating a delivery address outside the territory of the European Union.

Refusal by the Customer to pay the costs relating to customs duties and formalities shall result in the cancellation of the Order and its reimbursement.

Any bank charges are the responsibility of the Buyer (including in case of reimbursement).

The Creations are payable in cash from the Validation of the Order.

The payment of the All-Inclusive Price by the Customer is made only by credit card.

The accepted bank cards are those of the Carte Bleue, Visa, MasterCard, American Express networks.

To this end, the Customer must confirm that he is the holder of the bank card to be debited and that the name on the bank card is indeed his own.

The Customer communicates the sixteen digits and the expiry date of his credit card as well as, if necessary, the numbers of the visual cryptogram.

The Customer expressly acknowledges that the communication of his credit card information authorizes DCM to debit his credit card for the amount corresponding to the All-Inclusive Price of the Creations that were the subject of the Order Validation.

In accordance with Article L. 132-2 of the French Monetary and Financial Code, the commitment to pay given by means of a bank card is irrevocable.

The transaction is immediately debited to the Customer's bank card after verification of the latter's data, upon receipt of the debit authorization from the issuer of the bank card used by the Customer. In the event that debiting the All-Inclusive Price is impossible, the Online Sale shall be immediately refused by operation of law and the Order shall be cancelled.

DCM makes every effort to ensure the confidentiality and security of data transmitted on the Site.

In order to ensure the security of payment by credit card, the Purchaser must, at the time of entering his bank details, communicate to DCM the visual cryptogram (CVV) appearing on the back of the credit card used by the Purchaser.

In the context of the fight against Internet fraud, information relating to the Purchaser's order may be transmitted to any third party authorised by law or designated by DCM for the sole purpose of verifying the identity of the Purchaser, the validity of the order, the method of payment used and the planned delivery.

Following this control, DCM reserves the right to request a photocopy of the Purchaser's identity card and/or any information relating to his identity, it being specified that any Purchaser has a right of access, rectification and deletion of personal data concerning him and processed by DCM, under the conditions provided for in the GCU.

DCM uses a secure payment tool called MERCANET. The security of the payment is based on the authentication of the Buyer, and on the confidentiality of all data. To ensure this security, MERCANET uses proven cryptography techniques and respects the various banking regulations applicable in France.

Consequently, the Purchaser accepts in advance and unconditionally that DCM may proceed with the secure transaction. The Purchaser therefore authorises his bank to debit his account in view of the records or statements sent by DCM, even in the absence of invoices signed by the cardholder. Authorization to debit the Purchaser's account is always given for the amount of the Creation(s) purchased as invoiced by DCM. In the event that, for any reason whatsoever (opposition, refusal by the issuing centre, etc.), the debit of the sums due by the Purchaser proves impossible, the Order will not be recorded by DCM.
The sale will only be effective and therefore constitute a contractual legal relationship between the Purchaser and DCM once the sums due by the Purchaser have been duly and fully paid to DCM.
In general, it is expressly agreed between DCM and the Purchaser that emails will be deemed authentic between the parties as well as the automatic registration systems used by Customer Service or on the Site, in particular as regards the nature and date of the Order.
All invoices are dated and bear the value of the day of the purchase order.
The invoice is sent to the Purchaser upon delivery of the Designs.

Article L211-9 of the Consumer Code: 

"In the event of lack of conformity, the buyer shall choose between repair or replacement of the goods.

In such a case, the seller is bound to proceed, unless it is impossible to do so, according to the method not chosen by the buyer.

Article L211-10 of the Consumer Code: 

"If the repair and replacement of the good are impossible, the buyer may return the good and have the price refunded or keep the good and have part of the price refunded.

However, the sale may not be cancelled if the lack of conformity is minor.
