ARTICLE 4 - ORDERING AND PAYMENT

- 4.1 PLACING AN ORDER

The Customer places an order by completing the following 5 steps

Step 1: For the first order, the customer must create a customer account by filling in a form containing the following information: title, surname, first name, full delivery address, e-mail address and telephone number. The customer then specifies the delivery method chosen. The customer must then identify him/herself by entering his/her e-mail address and password. The customer is informed and accepts that entering these two identifiers (e-mail address and password) constitutes proof of identity and expresses consent. The customer declares that he/she is 18 years of age or, failing this, that he/she has parental authorization to place an order on the site.

Step 2: The customer selects the chosen Products and adds them to his/her shopping cart after selecting the desired size and color.

At any time, the customer may :

  • Obtain a summary of the products selected by clicking on the link at the top right of the "My basket" screen, indicating the number of Products it contains.

  • Continue shopping by clicking on the "Continue shopping" link

  • Complete your selection and place your order by clicking on the "Checkout" link.

Step 3: The customer checks the contents of the shopping basket by clicking on "Checkout" to access the order summary. The customer can then modify his/her order (product, size, quantity).

The total amount of the order, including VAT, distinguishing between the price due for the Products on the one hand, and the delivery charges on the other, is then indicated in the summary. Once the order has been checked and, if necessary, modified, the Customer validates his basket in order to finalize his order by clicking again on "order".

If the customer has an advantage code, he/she must enter it in the space provided in order to benefit from it.

Step 4: Customer enters delivery and billing details

With the exception of the date of birth, additional address and delivery information, all fields are required to finalize the order. Unless otherwise specified by the Customer, the billing address will automatically be the same as the delivery address.

If the Customer has already placed an order on the Site, he/she will have a customer account. In this case, he/she will only identify himself/herself with his/her e-mail address and password.

The customer then checks all the information and clicks on "validate" to continue with the order.

If payment is accepted, the Customer will be redirected to an order confirmation screen on the Site.

If payment fails, the Customer will have up to 3 attempts to re-enter his/her bank details. After the 3rd refusal, the Customer will be redirected to a screen on the Site indicating that payment has been refused. The Customer will then be invited to contact FLOTTE customer service to find out the reasons for the refusal and to work together to find a solution to finalize the Customer's order.
