The online store on the www.paomaparis.fr website has been set up by the BeautyBc company, which is the operator of this site. Any order taken for a product appearing in the online store of the website www.paomaparis.fr implies the prior consultation of the present general conditions.

Consequently, the consumer recognizes to be perfectly informed of the fact that his agreement concerning the contents of the present general conditions does not require the handwritten signature of this document, insofar as the customer wishes to order on line the products presented within the framework of the store of the Web site. The consumer has the option to save or edit these terms and conditions, being specified that both the saving and editing of this document are his sole responsibility. The consumer, before his order, declares that the acquisition of these products is without direct relationship with his professional activity, their acquisition being reserved for a personal use of its share. As a consumer, the customer thus has specific rights, which would be called into question in the hypothesis where the products or services acquired within the framework of the Web site would have in reality a report with its professional activity. The online store set up by the company BeautyBc within the framework of the website mentions the following information:

  • legal notice allowing a precise identification of the company BeautyBc
  • presentation of the essential characteristics of the goods offered
  • indication, in Euros, of the price of the goods, as well as, if necessary, the delivery costs
  • indication of the terms of payment, delivery, or performance
  • the existence of a right of withdrawal
  • the validity period of the offer or price
  • the conditions of termination of the contract when it is for an indefinite period or for a period of more than one year

All this information is presented in French. The consumer declares to have the full legal capacity allowing him to commit himself under these general conditions

Concretely, if you are absent on the day of delivery, your letter carrier will leave a notice in your mailbox, which will allow you to withdraw your parcel at a relay point near your home during its opening hours, within 15 days. Chronopost Suivi, Colissimo suivie and Lettre suivie are very reliable services. However, it is possible, as in any expedition, that there may be a delay in delivery or that the product gets lost.

If on the other hand the product is not found at the end of the 21 days investigation period, the Post Office considers the parcel as lost. It is only at this moment that we can send you a replacement product, at our expense. If the product(s) ordered were no longer available at that time, we would reimburse you the amount of the products concerned by the loss of the carrier.
