ARTICLE 1 - SCOPE

These general terms and conditions of sale (the “GTC”) apply, without restriction or reservation, to all sales concluded by the brand 6ixtes Paris, operated by the company Trinity Switches (the “Seller”), with professional or non-professional buyers (the “Client”) wishing to purchase the products offered for sale (the “Products”) by the Seller.

 

ARTICLE 2 - ORDERS

Orders for Products are the subject of a quotation drawn up by the Seller and accepted by the Client prior to execution. Quotations remain valid for a period of 2 months from their issue. Only a written order from the Client, within the aforementioned period, in accordance with the unmodified offer and accompanied by the corresponding deposit, will be honoured after acceptance by the Seller.

The choice and purchase of a Product are the sole responsibility of the Client. It is the Client's responsibility to check the accuracy of the order and to report any error within 48 hours.

The Seller reserves the right to cancel or refuse any order from a Client with whom there is an ongoing payment dispute.

 

ARTICLE 3 - PRICES

The Products are supplied at the prices stated in the final quotation approved by the Client. Prices are expressed in euros, exclusive and inclusive of tax. Prices are firm and non-revisable during their period of validity. The Seller reserves the right to modify prices outside this period.

Prices do not include shipping, transport, delivery, installation, maintenance or servicing costs, which are invoiced in addition where requested by the Client. In this case, the payment requested from the Client corresponds to the total amount of the purchase, including these costs.

Customs duties, local import taxes or state taxes may be payable. They are borne by, and remain the sole responsibility of, the Client.

 

ARTICLE 4 - LEAD TIMES

The manufacturing lead time starts from acceptance of the quotation and payment of the deposit by the Client. Approval of the quotation and payment of the order deposit by the Client constitute unreserved acceptance of the GTC.

The manufacturing and delivery times stated on the quotation are given for information only. Consequently, any delay in delivery or impossibility of delivery, for whatever reason, cannot give rise to any compensation or damages.

 

ARTICLE 5 - PAYMENT TERMS

Payment for the Products ordered is made by cheque or bank transfer, unless otherwise agreed, according to the following schedule:

50% of the amount inclusive of tax as a deposit upon ordering,

the balance before shipment of the Products.

The Seller will invoice and ship the Products at the end of the shipping period agreed with the Client at the time of the order. This period is stated on the quotation accepted by the Client.

Invoices unpaid at their due date will be subject to late-payment interest equal to the half-yearly key rate (refinancing rate) of the European Central Bank (ECB) in force on 1 January or 1 July, increased by 10 points; penalties are payable without any reminder or formal notice being required and accrue from the day following the payment date shown on the invoice or, failing that, the 31st day following the date of completion of the services. The Client shall pay a fixed recovery indemnity of €40, without prejudice to any additional indemnity where the recovery costs incurred exceed this fixed amount. Furthermore, in the event of non-compliance with the above payment terms, the Seller reserves the right to suspend or cancel the delivery of pending orders placed by the Client. The Seller shall not be required to deliver the Products ordered by the Client if the latter does not pay the price in full under the conditions set out above.

Payments made by the Client shall only be considered final upon actual collection of the sums due by the Seller.

 

ARTICLE 6 - RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

Given the nature of the Products sold, orders placed by the Client do not benefit from a right of withdrawal.

In the event of cancellation of the order by the Client, the Seller reserves the right to demand payment of the sums due for the work undertaken. The amount owed by the Client to the Seller will depend on the actual state of progress of the order.

 

ARTICLE 7 - CLAIMS

The Client is required to check the condition of the Products delivered and has a period of 7 calendar days from delivery to submit claims to the Seller by e-mail, together with all relevant supporting evidence.

After this period, the Products will be deemed compliant and free from any apparent defect, and no claim may be validly accepted by the Seller.

 

ARTICLE 8 - RETURNS

Given the bespoke manufacturing processes of the Products ordered, the Seller reserves the right not to accept returns. The Client may not demand the return and refund of Products ordered from the Seller.

 

ARTICLE 9 - SELLER'S LIABILITY AND WARRANTIES

For the Products, the transfer of possession and risk takes place upon ex-works delivery (leaving the workshop); the Products travel at the Client's expense, risk and peril, unless expressly stipulated otherwise. The Seller's liability, in the event of non-conformity or hidden defect, is limited to the replacement of the defective materials or the refund of the price received, to the exclusion of any other damage. Notwithstanding the transfer of possession and risk, ownership of any supplied Product shall only be transferred upon full payment of the price, principal and ancillary costs.

The Seller's warranty is, in any event, limited to the replacement of non-compliant or defective Products. The Seller's liability shall not be incurred, in particular, in the following cases:

non-compliance with the legislation of the country of delivery, which it is the Client's responsibility to verify,

misuse, negligence or lack of maintenance on the part of the Client,

normal wear and tear of the Product,

accident or force majeure.

The photographs, characteristics, specifications and dimensions shown in the catalogue and on the Seller's website are not contractual and cannot engage the Seller's liability. They are provided for information purposes only.

 

ARTICLE 10 - PERSONAL DATA

The Client is informed that the collection of their personal data is necessary for the sale and delivery of the Products. This personal data is collected solely for the performance of the sales contract. In accordance with the applicable laws and regulations, the Client has a right of access, rectification, portability and erasure of their data, as well as a right to restrict processing. The Client may also, on legitimate grounds, object to the processing of their data and, subject to producing valid proof of identity, exercise these rights by contacting Tristan Pannier (tristan@6ixtes.com).
