Article 1 - SCOPE OF APPLICATION
These terms and conditions of sale (the "Terms and Conditions") apply to the sale of products marketed by Valkyrie Paris (the "Products") to any individual or legal entity wishing to benefit therefrom (the "Customer"). Products offered on the site www.valkyrieparis-bijoux.fr operated and published by Valkyrie Paris.
The General Terms and Conditions notably stipulate the conditions of purchase, payment and delivery of Products ordered by the Customer. The Customer may refer to the description of each Product appearing in the Valkyrie Paris catalog to find out its characteristics.
Placing an order for Products implies the Customer's prior acceptance, without restriction or reservation, of the General Terms and Conditions, which the Customer declares to have read.
The General Conditions are applicable subject to any stipulation to the contrary appearing on the order form or in any special conditions concluded between Valkyrie Paris and the Customer concerned.
The General Terms and Conditions are without prejudice to applicable legal provisions, in particular those set out in the French Consumer Code.
The Customer acknowledges having read and expressly accepted the General Terms and Conditions of Sale in force on the day of the Order, prior to placing an Order on the Site. Acceptance of the General Terms and Conditions of Sale is effected by the validation of the Order by the Customer. By proceeding to payment, the user indicates his unreserved acceptance of these terms and conditions. These conditions are the only ones applicable and prevail over all other conditions.
Article 2 - PRODUCTS AND AVAILABILITY
The price and essential characteristics of each Product are described in the Valkyrie Paris catalog and published, as the case may be, by the Seller or its suppliers. Descriptions may include indications, photographs and graphics which are provided for illustrative purposes only and may be modified/updated by Valkyrie Paris.
The Products offered comply with French legislation and European CE standards in force at the time the order is placed.
The fact that Valkyrie Paris presents Products in its catalog does not constitute an obligation to market them, particularly in the event of stock shortage, unavailability of Products or the impossibility of marketing said Products, for whatever reason.
In the event that one or more Products are unavailable following the placing of an order, Valkyrie Paris will inform the Customer in writing of the waiting period for receipt of the temporarily unavailable Product. In this case :
- the Vendor may, with the Customer's agreement, offer at the same price a product identical in nature to that initially ordered. In this case, the Vendor will bear the cost of returning the product in question;
- the Customer will have the choice of waiting for the missing Product(s) to become available in order to receive the entire order in a single shipment;
- the Customer may cancel the order in its entirety; or
- the Customer will be able to cancel the order of the unavailable Product(s) and thus receive the other Products in the order within the announced deadlines.
In the last two cases, and where the Customer has already made a payment, he will be reimbursed in the same way as if he had exercised his right of withdrawal.
Article 3 - ORDERS
3.1 Placing an order
Any Customer wishing to place an order with Valkyrie Paris must complete and sign an order form summarizing, in particular, the essential characteristics of the Product(s) ordered, the total price, the terms of payment, the delivery time or duration, any delivery restrictions, a tracking number for the Customer's order and the terms and conditions for exercising the right of withdrawal, where applicable.
Confirmation of the order takes place upon signature of the order form by Valkyrie Paris or the sending by the latter of an e-mail confirming the order, the order thus becoming firm and definitive, subject however to the possible application of the Customer's right of withdrawal.
No order may therefore be modified or cancelled without prior written agreement between the Vendor and the Customer.
3.2 Controls
Each Customer guarantees the sincerity and accuracy of the information provided for the purposes of his/her order and undertakes to notify Valkyrie Paris of any changes.
Valkyrie Paris also reserves the right not to accept or to cancel the order of any Customer who has provided incorrect information, who has not paid for the Products, with whom there is a dispute relating to the payment of a previous order or who has an abnormally high level of orders.
The customer must take care to ensure that his or her personal details are recorded accurately. Valkyrie Paris shall not be held liable in the event of impossibility to deliver the product due to an error by the customer in the registration of his personal data.

The sums advanced by the Customer will then be returned to him.
The Customer also undertakes to inform Valkyrie Paris of any non-delivery within 15 days following receipt of the e-mail confirming shipment of the order, so that the Vendor can, if necessary, assist the Customer in taking the appropriate steps with the carriers.
Furthermore, in the event of a delivery error resulting from the Customer's communication of inaccurate information (delivery location, accessibility of the location or any other problem) leading to the need to make a new delivery, the related costs will be invoiced to the Customer.
