Deviating terms and conditions of the Customer shall not be recognized, unless the Provider expressly agrees to their validity.

(2) A consumer is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for a purpose not attributable to his or her commercial or independent professional activities. An entrepreneur, on the other hand, is a natural or legal person, or a legally empowered partnership, who acts in the exercise of his or her commercial or independent professional activity when entering into legal transactions. A legally empowered partnership is a partnership that has the capacity to acquire rights and incur obligations.

  • 2 Conclusion of the contract, confirmations and mandatory information

(1) On the website www.kapitales.fr, the Supplier offers customizable items (clothing and accessories) that can be printed with designs or text chosen by the Customer (hereinafter "Products").

(2) The Customer may select products from the Supplier's range and add them to the shopping cart using the "Add to Cart" button. By clicking on the "Send Order" button, the Customer confirms a binding purchase request for the goods in the shopping cart. Before sending the order, the customer can modify and view the data at any time.

(3) The Supplier shall immediately review the transmitted order information. After this verification, the contract shall come into effect by the delivery of the declaration of acceptance by the Supplier, sent by e-mail to the e-mail address indicated by the Customer and in which the Customer's order and any other contents of the concluded contract are specified. The Customer may print this declaration using the "Print" function. This e-mail also confirms receipt of the order.

(4) If the Customer chooses the PayPal payment option, the Provider shall forward the order information to the payment service provider (PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A. in Luxembourg), which shall perform a verification. The payment service provider will then collect the amount to be paid on behalf of the Supplier, communicate the order data and inform the Supplier about the payment made. After this verification, the contract comes into effect by the delivery of the declaration of acceptance by the Provider, which is sent by e-mail to the e-mail address indicated by the customer and in which the customer's order and all other contents of the concluded contract are specified. The Customer may print this declaration using the "Print" function. This e-mail also confirms receipt of the order.

(5) As soon as the Supplier receives the payment amount after the conclusion of the contract, the Supplier shall send the customer a confirmation e-mail. In addition, the Supplier shall inform the customer by e-mail as soon as he hands over the ordered goods to the shipping service provider.

(6) The Supplier reserves the right to adapt the visual ordered by the Customer in such a way as to best correspond to the spirit of the brand and the graphic and/or technical criteria of the various concepts proposed.

  • 3 Delivery, availability of goods

(1) If the Customer orders a designated item according to its category, in particular with regard to nature, color, weight, dimensions or design, the Supplier shall deliver an item of the same type and quality.

(2) If at the time of the order no copies of the product chosen by the Customer are available, the Supplier shall immediately inform the Customer of this in the order confirmation. If the product is not available for an indefinite period of time, the Supplier shall not send a declaration of acceptance. In this case, no contract shall come into force.

(3) If the product designated by the Customer in the order is temporarily unavailable, the Supplier shall immediately inform the Customer in the order confirmation. In the event of a delay in delivery, the Customer shall be entitled to withdraw from the contract.

(4) The shipment is made after the payment has been received and the production has been completed. The customer can give his order a higher priority for an additional charge (express delivery). In the latter case, the processing is carried out on the same day as the other orders received.

(5) Unless otherwise specified in the order process, the delivery time is usually 5-10 working days, of which 3-4 working days are reserved for the production and/or printing of the textile. The remaining 2-6 working days are allocated to the expected postal time. For large quantities or complex production processes, the production time will be extended by the appropriate amount of time. The Supplier points out that he has the goods delivered by post and therefore has no influence on the delivery times. Exceptions apply for orders before holidays and public holidays (e.g. Mother's Day, Father's Day, Christmas), for which the delivery time can be up to 10-15 working days.

  • 4 Reservation of ownership

(1) Until full payment has been made, the goods delivered shall remain the property of the Supplier. In addition, if the Customer is a merchant, paragraphs 2 to 4 below shall also apply.

(2) Until all claims (including all account balances) of the Supplier against the Customer have been satisfied, the goods delivered shall remain the property of the Supplier. In the event of a breach of contract by the customer, in particular if the customer is in default of payment, the supplier shall be entitled to take back the reserved goods after giving the customer a reasonable period of time to fulfil his obligations. Any taking back of the reserved goods by the Supplier shall constitute a withdrawal from the contract. The transport costs necessary for such a return shall be borne by the Customer. The contract shall also be deemed to be terminated if the Supplier seizes the reserved goods. The reserved goods taken back by the Supplier may be sold or reused.

(3) The customer shall treat the reserved goods with the utmost care. He shall insure the goods at his own expense against theft, fire and water damage in an amount sufficient to cover their value when new.

(4) In the event of seizure of the reserved goods by third parties or in the event of other interventions by third parties, the Customer shall indicate the Supplier's ownership and shall immediately inform the Supplier in writing, so that the Supplier can exercise its ownership rights. Insofar as the third party is not able to reimburse the related judicial or extrajudicial costs, the Customer shall be liable for them.

In the present case, this concerns, for example, the delivery of goods free of defects.
