These general terms and conditions of sale (hereinafter referred to as the "GTC") define the mutual rights and obligations in the event of a user (hereinafter referred to as the "Customer") purchasing products or services on the platform.

The GTC express the entirety of the parties' obligations. The Customer is deemed to accept them without reservation, failing which his order will not be validated.

In exceptional cases, the provisions of the GTC may be waived insofar as such waivers have been agreed upon in writing. These deviations may consist of the modification, addition or deletion of the clauses to which they relate and do not affect the application of the other provisions of the GTC.

Bubba's Shrimps - Nano Aquarium reserves the right to modify the GTC from time to time. The changes shall be applicable as soon as they are published online for all purchases made after this date.

 

2. Online shop

Through the platform, the Seller provides the Customer with an online shop presenting the products or services sold, without the photographs having any contractual value.

The products or services are described and presented as accurately as possible. However, in the event of errors or omissions in the presentation, the Vendor shall not be held liable for any errors or omissions.

The products and services are offered within the limits of their availability.

The prices and taxes are specified in the online shop.

 

3. Prices

The Seller reserves the right to modify its prices at any time by publishing them online.

Only the prices and taxes in force at the time of the order shall apply, subject to availability at that time.

The prices are indicated in euros and do not take into account any delivery costs, which are indicated and invoiced in addition before the order is validated by the Customer. The total amount of the order (including all taxes) and, if applicable, delivery costs is indicated before final validation of the order form.

 

4. On-line order

The Customer has the possibility to fill in an order form online, by means of an electronic form. By filling in the electronic form, the Customer accepts the price and the description of the products or services.

By validating the order, the Customer declares that he/she has accepted these GTC.

The Customer must provide a valid e-mail address, billing address and, if applicable, a valid delivery address. Any exchange with the Seller may take place via this e-mail address.

In addition, the Customer shall choose the delivery method and validate the payment method.

The Seller reserves the right to block the Customer's order in the event of non-payment, incorrect address or any other problem with the Customer's account until the problem is resolved.

5. Confirmation and payment of the order

The Seller retains ownership of the items ordered until full payment for the order has been received.

 

a) Payment

The Customer makes the payment at the time of the final validation of the order using the chosen method of payment. This validation takes the place of a signature.

The Customer guarantees the Seller that he has the necessary authorisations to use this method of payment and acknowledges that the information given for this purpose is proof of his consent to the sale and to the payment of the sums due for the order.

The Seller has set up a procedure for checking orders and means of payment in order to reasonably guarantee against any fraudulent use of a means of payment, including by asking the Customer for identification data.

In the event of refusal to authorise payment by bank card by the accredited organisations or in the event of non-payment, the Seller reserves the right to suspend or cancel the order and its delivery.

The Seller also reserves the right to refuse an order from a Customer who has not paid in full or in part for a previous order or with whom a payment dispute is in progress.

 

b) Confirmation

Upon receipt of the confirmation of the purchase together with the payment, the Seller shall send the Customer an invoice, unless the latter is delivered with the order. The Customer may request that the invoice be sent to an address other than the delivery address by sending a request to this effect to the customer service department at [email protected] before delivery.

If a service or product is unavailable, the Seller will inform the Customer by e-mail as soon as possible in order to replace it or to cancel the order for this product and possibly to reimburse the related price, the rest of the order remaining firm and definitive.

 

6. Proof

Communications, orders and payments between the Customer and the Seller may be proven by means of computerised records kept in the Seller's computer systems under reasonable security conditions. The order forms and invoices are archived on a reliable and durable medium considered, in particular, as a means of proof.


7. Delivery

Delivery is only made after confirmation of payment by the Seller's bank. The products are delivered to the address indicated by the Customer on the online order form.
