Article V. CONDITIONS OF USE AND TERMS OF ACCESS TO THE SITE

 

5.01 Terms and conditions of access to the Site

The User is personally responsible for setting up the IT and telecommunications resources required to access the Site.

 

In this respect, it is the User's responsibility to protect its technical equipment, in particular against any form of contamination by viruses and/or attempted intrusion for which STARPEACE cannot be held responsible.

 

The User remains solely responsible for the installation, operation and maintenance of the technical equipment required to access the Site's Services.

 

In no event shall STARPEACE be liable if the functionalities offered are incompatible or malfunction with any of the User's software, configurations, operating systems or equipment.

 

In addition, the User is responsible for all telecommunications costs associated with Internet access and the duration of use of the Site.

 

To benefit from the Services, the User must be a natural person.

 

Any use of the Site therefore implies that it is made by a natural person, in his or her own name, having the capacity to contract, i.e. being at least eighteen (18) years old and/or having reached the legal majority in force in his or her country and not being protected within the meaning of article 488 of the French Civil Code.

 

The User undertakes to provide only accurate, current and complete information, the accuracy, sincerity and reliability of which he guarantees at all times, and to update said information in order to maintain its accuracy, relevance and completeness.

 

STARPEACE reserves the right to suspend access to the Services if any information provided during the Order process or thereafter proves to be inaccurate, outdated or incomplete.

 

The User undertakes not to use a pseudonym that could undermine public order or infringe the rights of third parties (in particular, the use of surnames, titles or works protected by copyright or related rights, trademarks or company names).

 

5.02 Obligations of the Parties

 

(a) General obligation to cooperate and provide information

Each Party undertakes to communicate to the other Party all useful information and warnings concerning risks of any kind likely to affect the Services.

STARPEACE undertakes to take all reasonable care to limit the risks associated with a breach of security of the Service (intrusions, hacking, viruses). Insofar as the Internet is an open network, and therefore sensitive to a certain number of risks, STARPEACE cannot guarantee unlimited access and availability of the Service. The User accepts these risks.

 

STARPEACE undertakes to implement the necessary measures and means to preserve the integrity and availability of the Data that are uploaded by the User on the Website.

 

However, STARPEACE reserves the right to suspend access to the Website if, in its opinion, an event likely to affect the operation or integrity of the Services so requires or in the event of force majeure as provided herein.

 

The suspension is valid for the time required for the planned intervention.

 

In case of a scheduled intervention, STARPEACE undertakes to inform the User as soon as possible by any means at its convenience, as soon as they are aware of the dates of such intervention.

 

It is expressly agreed between the Parties that a suspension inherent to an intervention, whether scheduled or not, can in no way engage the responsibility of STARPEACE and does not entitle to any compensation.

 

(ii) Specific warranties and obligations in respect of Data Hosting provided by the User

STARPEACE complies with the legal provisions mentioned in article 6 of Law 2004-575 of June 21, 2004 on confidence in the digital economy.

STARPEACE has no a priori control over the Data provided by the User, and undertakes to host them, subject only to compliance with public policy.

 

Consequently, STARPEACE reserves the right to proceed to the prompt partial or total withdrawal of access to any illicit Data upon receipt of an alert by an Internet user or by another User, in application of article 6-1-5 of the Law for Confidence in the Digital Economy of June 21, 2004 (LCEN).

 

In the event of a partial or total withdrawal caused by the justified complaint of an Internet user or another User, STARPEACE shall inform the User of the subject of such complaint and the reasons for the partial or total withdrawal prior to the effective withdrawal, as soon as possible.

The User undertakes to use the Services provided by STARPEACE in accordance with their intended purpose.

 

The User shall refrain from any action that could damage the image of the Website, STARPEACE, and/or the distinctive signs belonging to it.

5.03 Responsibility of the Parties

(a) Liability of STARPEACE

STARPEACE shall be liable, on a best effort basis, for any breach of its obligations hereunder.

 

  • STARPEACE, in its capacity as technical service provider within the meaning of the Law for Confidence in the Digital Economy of June 21, 2004 (LCEN), in particular in its capacity as Host of the Data appearing on the Website and provided by the User, may only be held liable on the basis of Article 6-1-5 of the said law.

 

  • STARPEACE shall not be liable in case of use of the Services not in accordance with the provisions of these GCUV or in case of errors, failures or delays originating in a fault or failure of the User.

 

In any event, STARPEACE shall in no event be liable for any indirect and/or related damages, such as, but not limited to, business interruption and other commercial, image or moral damages, arising out of or in connection with this Agreement.

 

In order to avoid any late claim, and in particular to allow STARPEACE to preserve evidence, the User shall notify STARPEACE that it intends to enforce its liability.

 

This notification shall, under penalty of foreclosure, indicate precisely the errors, failures or delays observed and shall be sent no later than 15 days following the occurrence of the event likely to engage the liability of STARPEACE.

STARPEACE shall not be liable for any third party actions or claims as provided for herein.

 

Advertisements may be displayed on the Site. These may come from external sources (third-party affiliation management platforms, Google® ads, etc.) or be managed by STARPEACE's advertising network. In this case, STARPEACE cannot be held responsible for the "misleading or aggressive" character of advertisements coming from external sources.

 

With regard to advertising managed by STARPEACE, STARPEACE undertakes not to disseminate advertising that is manifestly misleading within the meaning of articles 121-1 et seq. of the French Consumer Code.

 

The links present on the Site (direct links, permalinks, partner links, etc.) redirect the User to sites whose content is under the responsibility of the publishers of said sites. In no event shall STARPEACE be liable for the content of such sites. In this respect, the User undertakes, when he is aware of it and when he can, to inform STARPEACE of any content that may appear illicit on the sites to which links have been set up.

 

(b) Responsibility of the User

The User shall be liable for any breach of his obligations under these terms and conditions.

 

The User is responsible for complying with the applicable regulations relating to the Data he or she places online on the Site.

 

User agrees to indemnify STARPEACE in the event of any claim, demand or award of damages against STARPEACE as a result of User's breach of these provisions.

 

The User indemnifies STARPEACE against any claim, demand or demand of third parties that would invoke a violation of their rights as a result of the use of the Services made by the User or as a result of measures taken by STARPEACE to put an end to the violation of the rights of third parties invoked by the victim.

 

 

 

5.04 Right of withdrawal

 

In accordance with current legislation, the User who has subscribed to an Account, when acting as a consumer, has a period of fourteen (14) calendar days to exercise his right of withdrawal without having to justify his decision or pay any penalties.

 

This period runs from the date of actual subscription to the Services. However, as the present Contract relates to the supply of Services performed either in part or in full before the expiry of the said period, the consumer may, insofar as he has been informed of this option, waive this right. BY VALIDATING THE PRESENT CGV, THE CONSUMER EXPRESSLY DECLARES THAT HE/SHE IS AWARE OF THIS RIGHT AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES IT.

 

In this respect, STARPEACE shall keep all means of proof allowing to establish the explicit request of the User to waive the right of withdrawal such as, in particular, check boxes, SMS and/or e-mails which establish his express consent on a durable dematerialized medium in accordance with the article PROOF AGREEMENT.

For deliveries to French overseas departments and territories or abroad, please send a message to the following e-mail address: contact@go-starpeace.com

 

Products will be shipped to the address given during the Order process. In the absence of a specific address in the space provided, the delivery address will be the Buyer's billing address entered by the Buyer when validating his/her Order on the Site.

 

If there is no indication to the contrary, shipping is free. If this is not the case, a contribution to shipping costs is mandatory.

 

Delivery times appear on the Order summary. They are given as an indication only.

 

Orders for Products in stock are processed within a maximum of three (3) to fifteen (15) working days (if available in stock) (processing of the Order, invoicing and delivery) from confirmation of the Order, excluding weekends, public holidays, annual or exceptional closures, exceptional shortage of stock or any reason beyond the control of STARPEACE.             

 

Deliveries are made by La Poste (choice of Lettre suivie), STARPEACE itself or an independent carrier DFS Druck Brecher GmbH to the address given by the Buyer at the time of the Order and to which the carrier has easy access.

 

Delivery times range from three (3) to fifteen (15) working days after the Order has been processed (average time without disruption to La Poste's services).

 

The carrier's contact details will be sent either on the Site or by e-mail to the Purchaser.

 

The Order is considered to have been received when it has been confirmed as having been deposited in the addressee's letterbox by the Post Office or delivered by the independent carrier.

 

In the event that the Buyer is absent at the time of delivery of the Product ordered on the Site, it is the Buyer's responsibility to collect the delivery from the address indicated by the post office collector or by the carrier, in accordance with the terms and conditions specified by the carrier on the delivery notice left at the delivery address.

 

If the Buyer fails to collect the Order within the period indicated on the notice, the corresponding parcel will be returned to STARPEACE, which reserves the right to refund the Buyer as soon as possible (the cost of returning the parcel will be deducted from the total amount of the Order) and to retain the Product ordered by the Buyer.

 

Any parcel returned to the seller because of an incorrect or incomplete delivery address will be reshipped at the Buyer's expense.

 

6.06 Complaints

(a) Transport damage

STARPEACE will consider that any parcel indicated as "delivered" to the correct address by the carrier cannot be the subject of any claim regarding a delivery defect. No refund will be made in this case.

 

In the event of non-conformity of the delivered Product compared to the indications appearing in the Order or of damage related to the conditions of transport noted at the time of the delivery, STARPEACE undertakes to contact the Buyer to find a solution which can go up to the cancellation of the Order and its refunding.

 

It is also the Buyer's responsibility to check the condition of the package upon receipt. If the Buyer notices any damage to the packaging upon delivery, he/she must lodge a complaint with the carrier. At the request of the Buyer, STARPEACE will assist the Buyer in this process but will not be held responsible for any damage to the package during transport.

 

The Buyer must send a copy of this delivery note within 48 hours by e-mail: contact@go-starpeace.com or by letter to : 23 allée des merisiers, 77166 EVRY-GREGNY-SUR-YERRES.

 

In this respect, it is the Buyer's responsibility to check the contents, conformity and condition of the Product upon delivery. This verification is deemed to have been carried out as soon as the Buyer, or a person authorized by him/her, has signed the delivery note presented by the postmaster or by the carrier without formulating any "handwritten reservations".

 

Packages are checked on departure from STARPEACE's workshop and it is the Buyer's responsibility to repeat this check in the presence of the delivery person upon receipt of the Products (number of packages, apparent condition of the package, number of items in the package and apparent condition of the Products in the package). In the event of a problem, reservations (as precise as possible) must be made on the delivery note given to the carrier.

 

There are two essential steps in bringing the carrier's liability into play:

 

- Issue sufficiently precise reservations to the driver who delivered the package;

- Send a registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt to the carrier, confirming your reservations no later than three (3) days following receipt of the package.

 

In case of complaints, these must be brought to the attention of STARPEACE at the address mentioned in the article "CUSTOMER SERVICE" herein.

 

The complaint must be addressed to STARPEACE within two (2) days from the date of delivery of the Products. The complaint must be accompanied by a photocopy of the purchase invoice.

 

The Products ordered will only be taken back with the agreement of STARPEACE, within one week of receipt by the Buyer, in their original packaging, and only in the event of a Product defect or design error. All Products supplied by STARPEACE are thoroughly inspected before shipment.

In any event, Products returned incomplete, damaged, used, soiled or without the original label will not be accepted.

 

Any Product returned in a condition other than its original condition will not be eligible for a refund.

 

No claim will be accepted if these formalities and deadlines are not respected.

 

(b) Exceeding delivery deadlines

STARPEACE undertakes to use its best efforts to deliver the Products ordered by the Buyer within the deadlines indicated in the Order summary.

 

However, these delivery times are given as an indication and, if the Products ordered have not been delivered within thirty (30) days after the indicative delivery date, for any reason other than force majeure or the fault of the Buyer, the Sale may be cancelled at the written request of the Buyer, under the conditions provided for in articles L 216-1 to L 216-3 of the French Consumer Code.

Article L. 217-5 of the French Consumer Code "The goods conform to the contract: 1° If they are fit for the purpose usually expected of similar goods and, where applicable : - if it corresponds to the description given by the seller and possesses the qualities that the seller has presented to the buyer in the form of a sample or model; - if it has the qualities that a buyer may legitimately expect in view of the public statements made by the seller, by the producer or by his representative, particularly in advertising or labelling; 2° Or if it has the characteristics defined by mutual agreement between the parties or is fit for any special purpose sought by the buyer, brought to the seller's attention and accepted by the latter."

 

Article L. 217-7 of the French Consumer Code: "Defects of conformity which appear within twenty-four months of delivery of the goods are presumed to have existed at the time of delivery, unless proven otherwise. For goods sold second-hand, this period is six months. The seller may rebut this presumption if it is not compatible with the nature of the goods or the alleged lack of conformity."

 

Article L. 217-12 of the French Consumer Code: "Action resulting from a lack of conformity is barred after two years from delivery of the goods.

 

Article L. 421-2 of the French Consumer Code "The provisions of this title do not apply to antiques and second-hand products requiring repair or reconditioning prior to use when the supplier informs the person to whom he supplies the product of the need for such repair or reconditioning."

 

Article 1641 of the French Civil Code: "The seller is liable for any hidden defects in the item sold which render it unsuitable for its intended use, or which impair this use to such an extent that the buyer would not have purchased it, or would only have paid a lower price for it, if he had known of them.

To benefit from this warranty, the Purchaser must present a photocopy of the purchase invoice.

 

6.10 Liability of STARPEACE

STARPEACE shall be released from any liability in the event that the non-performance of its obligations is attributable either to the unforeseeable and insurmountable act of a third party to the Contract or to a case of force majeure as defined by French case law.

 

Similarly, STARPEACE shall not be liable for any damage resulting from the use of the Internet such as loss of data, intrusion, virus, disruption of service, or other unintended problems.

Article VIII. RESOLUTORY CLAUSE
