As part of its business, ODIN MINERAUX publishes and operates an online store at the address [odinmineraux.fr] (hereinafter the “Site“).
- SCOPE OF APPLICATION
These general terms and conditions of sale (“GTC“) apply to any sale concluded between the Seller and any person acting as a consumer (hereinafter the “Customer“), hereinafter referred to together as the “Parties” and individually as the “Party“.
The GTC express the entirety of the Parties’ obligations, constitute the sole framework for the contractual relationship between them, and prevail over any other document, particularly any purchase conditions of the Customer.
To place an order with the Seller, the Customer must read these GTC and accept them without reservation.
The Customer declares that they have full legal capacity to contract with the Seller and specifically declares that they are of legal age and have the legal capacity to enter into a sale.
- ITEM AVAILABILITY
Items are marketed within the limit of available stocks.
In the event that an item proves to be unavailable, the Customer will be informed by email as soon as possible. The Customer will then have the option to (i) confirm the rest of their order, in which case they will be refunded the price of the unavailable item, or (ii) cancel their order, in which case they will be refunded the full amount paid. In the absence of a response after a period of fifteen (15) days from the notification, the Customer will be deemed to have cancelled their order.
In the event of cancellation, the Seller will refund the amounts paid by the Customer within thirty (30) days of the cancellation.
- SPECIFIC CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PRODUCTS SOLD
The Products are made from natural stones or minerals, which by definition may vary in appearance within the same category. The photographs presented on the Site are therefore a representative example of each Product. The Seller does its best to ensure that the photographs on the Site are realistic, but cannot guarantee a perfect match between these and the Products received by the Customer (variations in color, reflections, and shapes are possible).
The Customer is informed that the Products require specific maintenance, and notably that certain stones may lose their luster after being placed under water. Maintenance conditions are indicated on each Product sheet prior to purchase.
The Customer’s attention is also drawn to the fact that the Products, particularly stones and other minerals, are not medical devices. They are not suitable for therapeutic use and are not a substitute for medical follow-up.
