3.1 The description of the Products on the Site:Zadig & Voltaire takes the utmost care in the presentation and description of its Products, within the limits of technology and in compliance with best market standards.
Photographs may nevertheless differ slightly from reality, particularly due to the configuration of the display settings of the electronic device used by the Customer (Computer, Tablet, Smartphone etc.).

4 - ORDERING PRODUCTS
4.1 Prior creation of a Customer account:
The Customer may, when placing his first Order on the Site, create a customer account (hereinafter a "Customer Account"). To do so, the Customer must complete a form and provide certain personal information, in particular his e-mail address and a password which will subsequently be used to identify himself. The login and password are personal and confidential and the Customer undertakes not to divulge them.
The information disclosed to Zadig & Voltaire when creating the Customer account or at the time of each of his orders must be complete, accurate and up to date. The Customer must not impersonate a third party or change his age. Zadig & Voltaire shall not be held liable for any data entry error by the Customer that prevents Zadig & Voltaire from processing his order.
In any event, when creating a Customer account, the Customer's Personal Data is collected in accordance with the methods described in the Privacy Policy.
4.2 Ordering Products as a Guest:The Site offers the Customer the option of ordering Products as a guest, which does not involve the creation of a Customer account.
When using this method, the Customer must provide the information required to process his Order. At the end of the purchase process, the Customer is invited to create a Customer account or to continue placing the Order as an unregistered guest user.
When placing an Order for Products as a guest, the Customer's Personal Data is collected in accordance with the methods described in the Privacy Policy.
4.3 The steps of the Order:Placing an Order on the Site is subject to compliance with the procedure established by Zadig & Voltaire, which is embodied in a succession of different screen pages indicating the steps that the Customer must follow to validate his Order.
Before definitively confirming the Order, the Customer may check the details of the Order as well as its total price, and also correct any errors. Please note that all Orders entail the obligation to pay. To definitively validate an Order, click on the "Pay for your order" button.
4.4 Verification of the Order by Zadig & Voltaire:You are reminded that Orders placed on the Site are reserved for non-professional individuals and for your own use (or as gifts). For this reason, Zadig & Voltaire only sells its Products in quantities corresponding to a consumer’s average needs.
Pursuant to article L.121-11 of the Consumer Code, Zadig & Voltaire reserves the right to refuse or cancel, for legitimate reasons, any order for which the number of Products or the amount to be paid (for a single or several cumulative Orders) exceeds a consumer’s average needs, any Order giving grounds to believe that the Customer is using the Products ordered for business, or more generally, any abnormal Order.
Zadig & Voltaire shall also be entitled to refuse any Order placed by a Customer with whom there is a dispute over the payment of a previous Order, as well as any Order that does not conform to these General Terms and Conditions of Sale.
In such cases, Zadig & Voltaire shall inform the Customer by telephone or by email using the information provided by the Customer when placing the Order.
4.5 Confirmation of the Order by Zadig & Voltaire:Once the Customer has validated his order, Zadig & Voltaire shall acknowledge receipt thereof immediately by an email sent to the address provided by the Customer. To this end, the Customer formally accepts the use of electronic mail for the confirmation by Zadig & Voltaire of the content of his Order. This email contains all the information disclosed by the Customer as well as the price and delivery times, and any difficulties or provisos raised by the Order.
In the event of the unavailability of one or more Products after the Order has been placed, the Customer will be informed by e-mail. The Order and payment will then be totally or partially cancelled.
When the Order is dispatched, the Customer shall receive an email confirming his Order. The sale between the Customer and Zadig & Voltaire is then concluded. The Customer will also receive, upon delivery, for each of the Products, written confirmation of the price paid and the delivery costs charged to him.
For Orders placed on the Site, it is recommended that the Customer keep a copy (in electronic and/or paper format) of the elements relating to his Order (for example, the confirmation email sent by Zadig & Voltaire).
Zadig & Voltaire shall not be held liable for any data entry error by the Customer which would prevent receipt of the Order confirmation email.
Orders registered on the Site on a non-working day (Sunday or public holiday) will only be processed on the next working day.
4.6 Modification or cancellation of an Order by the Customer:Without prejudice to exercising the right of withdrawal provided for in Article 9, any modification or cancellation of the Order by the Customer is impossible.
Once the Order has been confirmed, the Customer may no longer modify the delivery address.
The Customer may contact Customer Service by telephone or by email to check the status of his Order.
5 - CLICK AND COLLECT PRODUCT ORDERS5.1 Click and collect procedure:
For each Product (excluding Products exclusively reserved for sale on the Site), the Site offers the Customer a list of the shops closest to him with stock available so he can make a click and collect order.
When selecting the first Product, the Customer chooses the shop (in mainland France, including Corsica) from where he wishes to collect the product. Only Products available in the same shop may then be added to the basket. To reserve Products from several shops, the Customer must make as many click and collect orders as there are shops selected.
When the basket is finalised, the Site requests the Customer details to be contacted by the shop. The Customer's Personal Data is then processed under the conditions described in the Privacy Policy in force on the Site. To make a reservation, the Customer must accept the General Terms and Conditions of Use of the company SoCloz (Partner of Zadig & Voltaire). Finally, to validate his reservation, the Customer receives a validation code by SMS which he must enter on the Site.
As of the Customer’s reservation of the Product, the shop will log his request within the period indicated, according to its opening hours and days (excluding sales periods and non-working public holidays and excluding Sundays). In this respect, the Customer recognises that this time limit may not be respected, particularly in the event of a problem with the reservation made by him that prevents the selected shop from logging the order.
The Customer then receives an e-mail/SMS acknowledging receipt of his reservation from the shop he has selected, partially (in the event of unavailability of one or more Products) or totally validating his reservation, and indicating the availability of the Products reserved. This e-mail/SMS will also indicate the date and time limit for collection.
5.2 Availability of click and collect Products:The Products are available for as long as they are visible on the Site and within the limit of the available stocks of the shop selected by the Customer, except for special campaigns, the validity period of which is specified on the Site.
The Customer is invited to check the availability of the Products sold on the information page of each Product. However, it is understood that this availability is merely indicative, as the Products may be sold between the moment of the reservation by the Client and the validation of this click and collect order by the shop. The date and time of the last update of this stock status is mentioned on the Site.
Where a reserved Product is unavailable, the shop will then inform the Customer of the partial validation of his reservation, indicating that one of the Products is not available.
If he so wishes, the Customer may also choose to cancel his reservation concerning the unavailable Products or to cancel his reservation in full, subject to informing the shop in charge of the reservation beforehand (using the telephone number indicated in the reservation confirmation email/SMS). In any case, a cancellation email will be sent to the Customer to confirm the cancellation of the reservation.
5.3 Collection procedures:To be able to collect the reserved Products, the Customer must present the e-mail/SMS of confirmation and availability of the Products as well as an identity document in the surname and first name of the person who made the online reservation.
If the Customer is unable to collect the Product from the shop, he may give power of attorney to the person of his choice. The latter must present the power of attorney on plain paper, his identity card and the Customer's identity card in the shop.
After the collection period, and if the Customer has failed to collect the reserved Product(s), his reservation will be automatically cancelled. The Products will be put back on sale and will therefore no longer be available to the Customer who has missed the collection period.
To protect the shops, after 3 out of 10 click and collect orders where the Customer has failed to make the collection without making a prior cancellation, Zadig & Voltaire reserves the right not to process a reservation request for 14 days.
5.4 In-store payment:Payment shall be made in-store, upon collection of the Products, by any payment method available in the shop and according to the shop’s general terms and conditions of sale.
6- PRICE OF PRODUCTSThe prices displayed on the Site are shown in Euros (on the France and English/International pages), in Pounds Sterling (on the English/UK pages) or in Swiss Francs (on the Switzerland page) and are displayed according to the Customer's IP address (UK IP address redirected to the English/UK pages and prices invoiced in Pounds Sterling).
For all Territories with a delivery address outside the United Kingdom or Switzerland, Products will be invoiced in Euros.
Prices are inclusive of tax (VAT), excluding delivery costs. The prices invoiced to the Customer are those in force on the date of the Order.

9.1 Exercise of the legal right of withdrawal and return procedures:
The Customer has a right of withdrawal which he may exercise, without having to give reasons or pay any penalties, within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the Products ordered.
To simplify the exercise of the right of withdrawal, Zadig & Voltaire asks the Customer to notify it by one of the following means:
- For Orders placed with a customer account, by logging in to your account on the Website, then selecting the order and clicking on "Create my return" or,
- For Orders placed as a guest, by clicking on "To make a return" in the options at the bottom of the Website,
- By contacting Customer Service
- By using the withdrawal form in the appendix.
The Customer must return the Products no later than 15 days after sending the notice of withdrawal. The Products must be returned in perfect condition, in their original packaging, accompanied, as applicable, by any labels, accessories, guarantee(s), notice(s), and copies of the documents attached to the Order. The Customer may return the Products either:
- By return to a pick-up point (available for the areas covered by the pick-up point service);
- By home collection (available for countries not offering delivery to collection points).
In these 2 cases, return costs are free of charge. However, Zadig & Voltaire will only handle one return per Order.
The Customer may also choose the carrier of his choice for the return of the Products. In this case, return costs will be borne by the Customer. The Customer is therefore recommended to provide proof of such return, meaning the Products should be returned via a tracked service or by any other means attesting to the date.
Zadig & Voltaire may not be held liable for any loss or damage occurring during transport. In the event of loss or damage during transport, the Customer must contact the carrier directly. Zadig & Voltaire will not be able to process returns if the Products are not received at the warehouse.
Products returned when they are incomplete, spoiled, damaged, worn or soiled for reasons attributable to the Customer will not be refunded. Shoes must be returned in their original box and unworn (soles intact).
9.2. Products excluded from the right of withdrawal:Certain products are excluded from the right of withdrawal for health and hygiene reasons. These include swimming costumes, underwear, tights, masks and cosmetics, including perfumes once they have been opened.
9.3 Consequences of exercising the right of withdrawal:If the Products are subject to a right of withdrawal, the Customer may receive, at his discretion, a refund or an exchange of the Products in the shop under the conditions described below:
· Refund
The total invoiced price (including initial delivery costs as applicable) of the returned Products will be refunded by crediting the credit card or PayPal account, no later than 15 days after receipt of the returned Products by Zadig & Voltaire.
However, in the event of partial exercise of the right of withdrawal relating to only part of an order containing several Products, Zadig & Voltaire will not be able to refund the delivery costs initially invoiced to the Customer.
· Right of exchange:
The Customer can exchange the Product(s) in a Zadig&Voltaire store (excluding department store concessions and outlets) for an item of the same value or superior value in return for payment of the price difference.
In the event that the Product(s) is/are exchanged in a Zadig&Voltaire store, the store terms and conditions of sale apply. Consequently, it will no longer be possible to benefit from the right of withdrawal on the Website.
We recommend that you first contact the Zadig & Voltaire shop where you wish to make the exchange in order to check the availability of the desired product(s). You can find the contact details of the shops at the following link: https://zadig-et-voltaire.com/eu/fr/store/locator/index/NL
