Please do not use this website if you do not accept all of these Terms and Conditions.

These Terms and Conditions are subject to change. It is your responsibility to read them regularly, as the Terms and Conditions in force at the time you use this website or at the date of formation of the Agreement (as defined below) will apply.

4. Utilisation de notre site internet

These Terms and Conditions are the only terms and conditions applicable to the use of this website and supersede all other terms and conditions, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Seller. These Terms and Conditions are important to both you and us in that they have been drawn up to create a legally binding agreement between us, protecting your rights as a consumer and our rights as a business. You acknowledge that by placing an order you accept these Terms and Conditions without reservation and have read them.

When registering personal data, the Customer must ensure the accuracy and completeness of the data provided. In the event of an error in the wording of the recipient's details, Les Comptoirs d'Orta shall not be held responsible for the impossibility of delivering the product.
By using this website and/or placing an order through it, you agree :

  3. You also agree to provide an email address, postal address and/or other contact information and acknowledge that we may use this information to contact you if necessary.

If you do not provide us with all the information we require, we may not be able to process your order.
By placing an order on this website, you guarantee that you are at least 18 years of age and are legally capable of entering into binding agreements.

5. Formation of the contract

The information set out in these General Terms and Conditions and the details on this website do not constitute an offer to sell but rather an invitation to enter into a contract. No contract shall exist between you and us in relation to the products until we have accepted your order. If your order is not accepted and the amount has already been debited from your account, you will receive a full refund.

To place an order, you will be asked to follow the online shopping process to submit the order. You will then receive an email from us confirming the receipt of your order (the "Order Confirmation"). Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes your offer to buy one or more products from us. All orders are subject to our acceptance and we will confirm this acceptance by sending you an email confirming the dispatch of the Product(s) (the "Dispatch Confirmation"). The contract for purchase of the Product will only be formed between you and us with the Dispatch Confirmation. The Contract will only relate to the Products which we have confirmed in the dispatch confirmation. We will not be obliged supply you with any other products that are included in the order, so long as their dispatch has not been confirmed in a dispatch confirmation.

6. Availability of products

All product orders are subject to availability.

In this respect, in the event of delivery difficulties or stock shortages on the products ordered, we reserve the right to provide you with information on replacement products of equal or greater quality and value that you will be able to order. If you do not wish to order these replacement products, you will be fully refunded.

7. Rejection of order

We reserve the right to remove any product from this website and/or replace or amend any document or content on this website at any time. Whilst we endeavour to process all orders at all times, there may be exceptional circumstances in which we will refuse to process an order after an Order Confirmation has been sent. We reserve the right to do so at any time and at our sole discretion.

We shall have no liability to you or any other third party as a result of our decision to remove any product from our site, whether or not it has been sold, to replace or amend any material or content on this site, or to refuse to process or accept any order after the relevant Order Confirmation has been sent.

8. Delivery

Subject to the terms of clause 6 above, and other than in exceptional circumstances, we will endeavour to process your order for the Product(s) specified in the Dispatch Confirmation by the delivery date set out in the document or, if no such date is stated, within 15 days of the date of the Dispatch Confirmation.

Please note that the products are delivered in a recycled plastic envelope suitable for the package, placed in a cotton pouch and scented with Orta mist.

Reasons for delay may include:

  • product customisation;
  • specialised items;
  • unforeseen circumstances;
  • delivery location.

Shipping times may be longer during collection releases. Please note that orders are prepared Monday to Friday.

For the purpose of these Terms and Conditions, the "delivery" will be considered completed or the order delivered upon receipt of the order at the agreed delivery address.

Depending on the country of delivery, your packages are delivered by Bpost, Colissimo, Chronopost or Colissimo International.

Delivery times depend on your choice of carrier.

9. Inability to deliver

We shall understand that you wish to cancel the Contract and the Contract may be deemed to have been terminated on the expiry of a period of 15 days from the date on which your order is ready for delivery during which the order has not been delivered for reasons for which we are not responsible. If the Contract is deemed to be terminated, we will refund the price paid for the goods as soon as possible, and in any event, within 30 days of the date on which we consider the Contract as terminated. In such cases, we will be entitled to charge you for the delivery costs and any costs incurred in terminating the Contract.

If your package is returned to the sender, the sender will be refunded within 5-10 working days. Logistically, it is not possible to offer a reshipment.

10. Risk and title

You shall assume the risks associated with the Products from the date of delivery.
Ownership of the Products shall not be passed to you until we have received the full payment due for the Products, including delivery charges, or from the time of delivery (as defined in clause 8 above), if this occurs later.

11. Prices and payment

The prices of the Products will be as stated on our website at all times, except in the case of obvious errors. Although we endeavour to ensure that all prices stated on our site are accurate, errors may occur. If we discover an error in the price of the products you have ordered, we will notify you as soon as possible and give you the opportunity to reconfirm the order at the correct price or cancel it. If we are unable to contact you, the order will be considered cancelled and if you have already paid for the products, you will receive a full refund.

We are not obliged to sell the Products to you at an incorrect (lower) price (including after sending a Dispatch Confirmation) if the pricing error is obvious and unequivocal and could reasonably be identified by you as such.

The prices displayed on our website include VAT but do not include delivery charges. These will be added to the total amount.

Prices are subject to change at any time. However (unless otherwise stated above), such potential changes will not affect orders for which an Order Confirmation has been sent.

Once you have completed your selection of products, all the items you wish to purchase will be added to your basket. You will then need to log in and proceed to checkout.

To do this, you must

  1. Click on the "Shopping Bag" button on the right-hand side of the page.
  2. Click on the "Order" button.
  3. Fill in or check your personal details, order details, delivery address and billing address.
  4. Click on "Continue".
  5. Fill in your credit card details.

You can pay by Paypal, Credit Card (Visa, Mastercard, etc), Bancontact, Apple Pay, Alma (payment in several instalments without fees, only available for Belgium, France, Germany, Spain and Italy).

Your card details will be encrypted to limit any risk of unauthorised access. Once we have received your order, we will request a pre-authorisation from your card to ensure that you have sufficient funds to complete the transaction.

By clicking on "Complete Order" you confirm that the credit card used is yours.

Credit cards are subject to validation checks and authorisation by your card issuer. In the absence of the required authorisation, we will not be responsible for any delays or non-delivery of the order and will not be able to form any Contract with you.

12. Value added tax

In accordance with the applicable rules and regulations, all purchases made through the website are subject to Value Added Tax (VAT).

As such, and in accordance with Chapter I of Title V of Council Directive 2006/112/EC of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax, the place of supply is assumed to be the Member State of the address to which the items are to be delivered, and the VAT applicable will be that in force in each Member State in which the items are to be delivered in accordance with the orders placed.

In accordance with Article 283-1 of the French General Tax Code, deliveries of goods made on French territory to customers duly identified for French VAT will be invoiced under the reverse charge system. French customers will be responsible for paying French VAT under the reverse charge mechanism through their respective (French) VAT return.

In addition, supplies made to other Member States than France to customers identified for VAT purposes in that other Member State will be invoiced with the application of the exemption provided for in Article 138 of Directive 2006/112/EC as an intra-Community supply of goods, after having received from the customer a VAT number (other than a French VAT number) that appears to be valid on the European VAT number validation site 'VIES'

Any additional costs related to the delivery of your order (customs fees, import fees, taxes) are to be paid by you.
