Checking the order: the customer checks the contents of the order, the total price, the delivery and billing addresses, while retaining the possibility of deleting a product or modifying the billing and delivery address. By clicking on “Confirm my order and pay”, he/she validates his/her order and confirms unreserved acceptance of the GCS.

Enter bank details: name, card number, validity date, cryptogram. Customers can register their card for future purchases by clicking in the appropriate box.

Acknowledgement of receipt of the order: the Customer receives an e-mail summarizing the contents of his order, i.e. :

– order number and date

– list of products ordered

– delivery terms

– order amount

 

It is advisable to keep and print this document as official proof of the order. The order is then recorded and processed by the Company, which checks the availability of the product(s) ordered.

  1. PRODUCT PRICING

The prices indicated on the Site are in euros, including VAT. VAT is charged at the rate in force in mainland France at the time the order is placed. Any rate change will be applied immediately to the current order.

Product prices do not include shipping costs, which are extra. The Customer will be informed of the latter on the summary screen before final validation of the order.

 

However, order preparation depends on the geographical delivery zone:

For deliveries in metropolitan France and in countries belonging to the European Union, the order will be established TTC.

For deliveries to DOM TOM AND OUTSIDE THE EUROPEAN UNION, the order will automatically be established exclusive of tax. Customs duties, other local taxes, import duties or state taxes may be payable on entry into the country. These rights are not the responsibility of the Company. They are the sole responsibility of the customer, both in terms of declarations and payments to the competent authorities of the country concerned.

The products remain the property of the Company until full payment of the price; the risks are transferred to the Customer upon delivery, who will guarantee the Company, in particular in the event of damage and/or destruction.

The Company may, from time to time, offer the Customer price reductions, discounts and rebates, according to the conditions set at its discretion. Any facility granted by the Company shall not constitute a waiver of the rights agreed to in these GCS.

 

  1. DELIVERY

5.1. GENERAL

Items offered for sale on the Site are delivered to the delivery address given by the Customer on the order form.

5.2. TERMS OF DELIVERY

For all products, orders are prepared for dispatch from the Company’s warehouses within an average of 72 working hours (subject to stock availability) from e-mail confirmation of the order. This timeframe is provided for information purposes only and does not bind the Company.

Orders are then delivered by carrier (Colissimo Expert, Chronopost or Geodis); the Company is not responsible for the times or conditions under which delivery is made by these service providers.

 

5.3. DELIVERY TIMES AND RATES

The Company does not deliver to post office boxes.

The lead times announced on the Site are purely indicative and depend on the destination and availability of the product ordered. Exceeding this deadline may not give rise to any cancellation of the order, any reduction in the price paid by the Customer, or any payment of damages. However, in accordance with the provisions of article L. 121-20-3 of the French Consumer Code, in the absence of delivery at the end of a period of thirty (30) days from the day following that on which the Customer placed his/her order, the Customer will have the option of cancelling his/her order. The sums paid will then be reimbursed (excluding shipping costs).

 

In cases where it is able to do so, the Company reserves the right to offer a product of equivalent quality and price to the initial product.

The Company cannot be held responsible for additional delays caused by the non-issuance of a bank authorization or an incomplete purchase order.

 

In the case of partial deliveries, transport costs will only be invoiced for the first delivery.

 

The products are insured by the Company until delivery.

 

5.4. PRODUCT ACCEPTANCE AND COMPLAINTS

The Company recommends that the Customer check the apparent condition of the products upon delivery. In the event of an anomaly (damaged packaging, missing or damaged products) the Customer :

– must make any necessary reservations on the delivery receipt,

– must send a declaration of reservations to the carrier within 48 hours of delivery by registered mail with acknowledgement of receipt

– send a copy of this letter to the Company’s Customer Service Department: 22 rue André Maginot, 33700, Mérignac, France.

 

In case of doubt, the customer is advised to open the package in the presence of the carrier to ensure that there is no damage to the product. Failing this, no claim may be made by the Customer against the Company.

  1. PAYMENTS

The customer may pay by credit card directly on the Site, using a Visa or Mastercard. Payment by bank transfer, cheque or cash on delivery is not accepted.

 

The invoice amount will be debited from the Customer’s account on the date of payment.

 

To ensure the security of payments, the Site uses the Stripes secure payment service. This service integrates the SSL security standard. Confidential data (credit card number, expiry date, cryptogram) is transmitted encrypted directly to the Stripes server.

The payment request is routed in real time to the Stripes telepayment manager. The latter sends an authorization request to the credit card network. The telepayment manager issues an electronic certificate.

For any payment by credit card on the Site, the electronic certificate issued by the telepayment manager will constitute proof of the amount and date of the transaction, in accordance with the provisions of articles 1316 et seq. of the French Civil Code. In this respect, the dates and times of the server will prevail between the parties.

The Company reserves the right to refuse an order if there is a previous dispute in progress or an abnormally high level of orders.

  1. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

The customer has 14 days from the date of receipt of the goods to exercise his right of withdrawal. The customer may request an exchange or refund of the product(s) purchased. After the 14-day period, the Company is free to refuse the exchange, credit note or refund.

 

The exchange or refund procedure is as follows:

The Customer must inform the Company of his wish to withdraw within 14 days of receipt of his order. The Customer can find a model retraction form by contacting the Company by email: contact@nomads-surfing.com.

The Company will send an e-mail acknowledging receipt of the withdrawal as soon as it is informed of it.

The customer fills in the returns form accompanying the product(s) purchased, specifying whether an exchange or refund is required for each product.

7.1 EXCHANGE

The exchange is made for the same product of a different size or color if the amount is the same and within the limit of stock availability. The exchange will be processed within a maximum of 14 days from the date on which the Company is informed of the Customer’s decision to withdraw, provided that the product is returned in perfect condition, unused, unworn and correctly folded.

 

The cost of returning and redelivering the product(s) to be exchanged shall be borne by the Customer.

 

7.2 REIMBURSEMENT

If the Customer opts for a refund, the Company will reimburse the Customer for the price of the product(s) returned. Refunds will be made within a maximum of 14 days from the date of receipt of the returned product in perfect condition. Reimbursement may be deferred until recovery of the products or proof of shipment of the products by the Customer. The refund will be made using the same payment method as the one used for the initial transaction. If reimbursement is not possible (virtual card, expired card, etc.), reimbursement will be made by cheque sent to the Customer’s home address. The cost of returning the product(s) to be refunded shall be borne by the Customer.

 

  1. LEGAL WARRANTIES AND AFTER-SALES SERVICE

The products sold benefit from the legal guarantee of conformity provided by articles 211-4 et seq. of the French Consumer Code and the guarantee against hidden defects (articles 1641 et seq. of the French Civil Code). These warranties cover both hidden and visible defects from the date of delivery. The only obligation incumbent on the Company under this warranty is, at its option, the free replacement or repair of products recognized as defective without any other service or compensation. This warranty does not cover damage resulting from misuse of the product, normal wear and tear due to use, or failure to follow washing or maintenance instructions. In order to benefit from the product warranty, it is essential to keep the product purchase invoice and the delivery note.

Product returns and after-sales service should be sent to NOMADS SURFING SARL 22 rue André Maginot 33700 Mérignac, France.

  1. ATTRIBUTION OF COMPETENCE

These terms and conditions are governed by French law. They are written in French, and in the event of translation into other languages, this is the only version to be considered authentic in the event of contradiction.
