4. Conclusion of contract

The products and prices indicated on this website are considered to be non-binding offers.

By placing an order via this website, including acceptance of these GTC, the customer makes a legally binding offer to enter into a contract. www.baratin-diffusion.ch then sends an automatic order confirmation by e-mail, which confirms that the customer's offer has been received by www.baratin-diffusion.ch. Orders placed are binding on the customer. Unless otherwise stated, there is no right of return or cancellation.

The contract is concluded as soon as www.baratin-diffusion.ch sends an acceptance e-mail confirming dispatch of the products or services ordered.

Orders will only be delivered once full payment has been received (exception: delivery against invoice) and insofar as the goods are available. If it turns out that the goods ordered cannot be delivered or can be delivered only in part, www.baratin-diffusion.ch is entitled not to accept the order or to execute it only in part.

The products delivered to the customer remain the property of www.baratin-diffusion.ch until they have been paid for in full.

6. Delivery, obligation to inspect, complaints and returns

Deliveries are sent by post or courier to the address indicated by the customer in the order.

www.baratin-diffusion.ch endeavours to keep delivery times as short as possible. However, any delivery times indicated in the order confirmation are non-binding. www.baratin-diffusion.ch is authorised to make partial deliveries. In this case, the customer will only be invoiced once for the delivery costs.

If delivery against invoice is offered, the invoice will be sent, at www.baratin-diffusion.ch's discretion, by e-mail or by post.

If the delivery cannot be made or if the customer refuses delivery, www.baratin-diffusion.ch may terminate the contract after informing the customer by e-mail and allowing a reasonable period of grace, and charge the travel costs.

The customer is obliged to check the goods delivered as soon as they are received and to report any defects immediately in writing, by post or by e-mail to the address given in the legal notice (> link), for which www.baratin-diffusion.ch is liable.

Returns to www.baratin-diffusion.ch are made at the customer's expense and risk. The customer must send the goods in their original packaging, complete with all accessories and accompanied by the delivery note and a detailed description of the defects to the returns address indicated by www.baratin-diffusion.ch Impressum (>Link).

If, upon examination by www.baratin-diffusion.ch, it is found that the goods have no detectable defects or that they are not covered by the manufacturer's warranty, www.baratin-diffusion.ch may invoice the customer for the costs of travel, return or possible disposal.

7. Right of withdrawal

A right of withdrawal is granted to the customer for 10 calendar days from receipt of the goods. The deadline is deemed to have been met if the customer sends the written cancellation by e-mail or letter (address as per legal notice, https://www.baratin-diffusion.ch/fr/content/2-mentions-legales) to www.baratin-diffusion.ch within the specified period. The withdrawal does not need to be justified.

Exercising the right of withdrawal results in the cancellation of the contract. The customer must return the goods in their original packaging, complete with all accessories and accompanied by the delivery note, within 10 calendar days to the returns address indicated by www.baratin-diffusion.ch in the legal notice (> link). Returns to www.baratin-diffusion.ch are at the customer's expense and risk. Any payment already made will be refunded to the customer within 20 calendar days, provided that www.baratin-diffusion.ch has already received the returned goods or that the customer can provide proof of dispatch.

www.baratin-diffusion.ch reserves the right to demand reasonable compensation in the event of damage, excessive wear or loss of value due to misuse and to deduct the loss of value from the purchase price already paid or to invoice it to the customer.

No right of withdrawal is granted in the following cases:

(i) Where the contract contains a random element, in particular because the price is subject to fluctuations over which the supplier has no influence;

(ii) where the subject of the contract is movable property which, due to its nature, cannot be returned or is likely to deteriorate rapidly;

(iii) where the subject matter of the contract is movable property made to the customer's specifications or clearly adapted to his personal needs;

(iv) where the subject matter of the contract is digital content and the content is not made available on a fixed data carrier or where the contract must be performed immediately and in full by both parties;

(v) where the subject matter of the contract is the provision of services and the contract is to be performed in full by the supplier, with the customer's express prior consent, before the withdrawal period has expired. 

(vi) In the fields of accommodation, transport, the supply of food and drink and leisure, where the supplier undertakes, when the contract is concluded, to provide the services on a specific date or within a specific period.
