Any delivery of Products to the Customer can only occur after full payment of the price by the company Déglon and acceptance of the order with regard to the state of stocks of available products. It is recalled that for Business Customers, the delivery time is indicative, therefore any delay in delivery can in no way give rise to the cancellation of all or part of the Order or a price reduction or compensation of any kind.
The Company undertakes to make every effort to deliver the Products as quickly as possible. This may vary depending on the Client's geographical area, the delivery method chosen or the Product ordered.
If the delivery deadline is exceeded, which is fixed at 30 working days after the conclusion of the sales contract, except in the case of force majeure as defined below or an event attributable to the Client, the Consumer Client may request the cancellation of the contract by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt, after having enjoined the Company, in the same way, to make the delivery within a reasonable additional period, and if the Company has not complied.

In the event that delivery is impossible due to an error in the address indicated by the Client, the Company will contact the Client as soon as possible in order to obtain a new delivery address and any additional delivery costs will be charged to the Client.

The Consumer has a right of withdrawal of 14 days as from the placing of the Order, except for the products mentioned in article L.221-28 of the Consumer Code. To exercise this right of withdrawal, the Consumer shall send a declaration to the address: info@deglon.fr.
The Products must be returned in their original packaging and in perfect condition within 10 days of the Consumer notifying the Company of the withdrawal. The direct costs of returning the Products shall be borne by the Consumer. The Consumer will be reimbursed for the totality of the costs paid for the placing of the Order within 14 days of the Company becoming aware of his/her declaration of withdrawal and once the Products have been received by the Company in perfect condition.

Déglon provides the customer on its website a tool for co-design and customization (space my.D Lab), allowing him to customize his tool, according to various criteria (choice of a function, a shape of blade, handle, material, design to mark ...). As the result of using the configurator (my.D Lab area) is a personalised and individualised tool, any right of withdrawal is therefore excluded in this specific case.
10. TRANSFER OF RISK AND OWNERSHIP
The Company retains a right of ownership over the Products sold until full payment of the price by the Client. It may therefore repossess the said Products in the event of non-payment. In this case, the advance payments made shall be retained by the Company as compensation. For Consumer Clients, the transfer of risks takes place upon delivery or when the goods are collected from the relay point.
11. LEGAL GUARANTEES
Pour toutes les Commandes réalisées sur le présent Site, le Client Professionnel bénéficie d'une garantie de conformité, et à ce titre.

A défaut de réserves expressément émises lors de la livraison, les Produits sont réputés conformes à la Commande, et la garantie de conformité est levée.
For all Sales Orders placed through this web site, the Professional Client is entitled to a guarantee of conformity. It is the responsibility of the Professional Client to verify the apparent condition of the Products upon receipt of the goods. If no reservations are expressly made at the time of delivery, the Products shall be deemed to be in conformity with the Order, and the guarantee of conformity shall be lifted.
The Professional Customer also benefits from the legal guarantee against hidden defects. This warranty is limited to a period of ONE (1) year from the date of receipt of the Products. In the event of discovery of a defect during this period, the Client must notify the Company within a maximum of THREE (3) days from the date of such discovery, and in accordance with the conditions of form below.
Under the above guarantees, the Professional Client must send the Company, at the address info@deglon.fr, a statement in which it expresses its reservations and claims, together with the relevant supporting documents (receipt countersigned by the carrier, photographs, etc.). A claim that does not respect the conditions described above cannot be accepted.
In application of these guarantees, and if the lack of conformity or the defect are proven and are indeed attributable to the Company, the Company will repair, replace or reimburse the Product or its components as soon as possible and at its own expense, subject to the material possibility of repairing the Product or its availability in stock.
For Consumer Customers, the Products sold on the Site are guaranteed in accordance with the legal provisions of the Consumer Code and the Civil Code as reproduced below:
Article L.217-4 of the Consumer Code:
"The seller delivers a good in conformity with the contract and is responsible for any defects in conformity existing at the time of delivery. He is also liable for any lack of conformity resulting from the packaging, the assembly instructions or the installation when the latter was made his responsibility by the contract or was carried out under his responsibility. "
Article L.217-5 du Code de la consommation :
"The good is in conformity with the contract:
1° If it is fit for the purpose usually expected of a similar good and, where applicable: if it corresponds to the description given by the seller and has the qualities that the seller presented to the buyer in the form of a sample or model; if it has the qualities that a buyer may legitimately expect in view of the public statements made by the seller, by the producer or by his representative, in particular in advertising or labelling;
2° Or if it has the characteristics defined by mutual agreement between the parties or is fit for any special purpose sought by the buyer, brought to the seller's attention and accepted by the latter.
With regard to the existence, conditions of implementation and content of the Customer's guarantees, the Order of 18 December 2014, specifies for individuals or consumers, that: "- The Seller is liable for defects in the conformity of the goods to the contract under the conditions of Article L.211-4 et seq. of the Consumer Code and for hidden defects in the thing sold under the conditions provided for in Articles 1641 et seq. of the Civil Code ;
- Thus, when the Customer acts under the legal guarantee of conformity, (i) he has a period of two years from the delivery of the goods to act; (ii) he can choose between repairing or replacing the goods, subject to the cost conditions provided for in Article L211-9 of the Consumer Code, (iii) he is exempted from proving the existence of the lack of conformity of the goods during the 24 months following the delivery of the goods and according to which, (iv) the legal guarantee of conformity applies independently of any commercial guarantee that may have been granted;
- The Customer may decide to implement the guarantee against hidden defects of the thing sold within the meaning of Article 1641 of the Civil Code and that, in this case, he may choose between the resolution of the sale or a reduction in the sale price in accordance with Article 1644 of the Civil Code.
Any Product resold that has been altered, modified or transformed is not covered by the warranty. The warranty is limited to the replacement or reimbursement of Products that do not conform or are affected by a defect. It is excluded in the event of misuse or abnormal use of the Product as well as in the event that the Product does not comply with the legislation of the country to which it is delivered.
In the event of damage resulting from the execution of the order or the non-execution or poor execution of the order in whole or in part by the Company, the Company shall in no case be liable for indirect damage. In the event of any direct damage, the Company's liability is limited to the amount of the order excluding VAT for Professional Clients and to the amounts of compensation set out in the Company's insurance policy for the categories of damage concerned, for Clients acting as consumers.
