Terms & Conditions of Sale

These general terms and conditions of sale (the "GTC") govern the conditions applicable to any online sale of products bearing the brand "KYMAS," "KYMAS PRODUCTION" (the "Products") carried out on the official online sales website "www.kymas.com" (the "Site"). Online sales of the Products on the Site are carried out, under the terms of these GTC, directly by KYMAS, a Simplified Joint Stock Company (S.A.S) with a share capital of €1,000, registered with the Toulouse Trade and Companies Register (RCS) under number 980 519 334, whose registered office is located at 4 rue des buis, 31170 Tournefeuille (the "Seller"). The GTC may be amended at any time depending on changes to the Site and/or to regulations. In the event of any amendment, the GTC in force at the time your order is placed will apply to you.

1. Seller's commercial policy

The Seller offers for sale the Products available on the Site and carries out its online sales activity exclusively for customers who purchase Products through the Site as non-professional "consumers" — i.e., any natural person acting for personal purposes and not within the scope of their commercial, industrial, craft, liberal, or agricultural activity, thereby excluding any reseller or intermediary acting on behalf of resellers (the "Buyers" and each a "Buyer").

Only Buyers who have reached the age of majority and have full legal capacity to enter into the terms of these GTC may access the online sales service offered by the Seller on the Site.

The Seller reserves the right not to proceed with: (i) any order placed by a minor and/or by a person not meeting the required characteristics of a Buyer; (ii) orders that do not comply with these GTC; (iii) any abnormal request in terms of quantity ordered (for example, an order exceeding five (5) items for the same Product in the same color reference may be considered abnormal); or (iv) activity reported or suspected to be fraudulent, illegal, or unauthorized, including where a purchase is suspected to have been made for commercial rather than personal purposes.

These GTC exclusively govern the online sale of Products by the Seller to the Buyer through the Site.

Before placing any order, the Buyer will be asked to unconditionally accept: (i) these GTC, (ii) the legal notices and the Site's general terms of use, and (iii) the Privacy Policy. All of these documents are available under the respective tabs in the "Legal Notices" section of the Site. In the absence of agreement and acceptance of all provisions contained in these documents, the Buyer will not be authorized to place an order on the Site.

2. Order

To order a Product on the Site, the Buyer must complete the online order form by following the instructions provided:

  • Click on the Product, select the size, and click "Add to cart";
  • Click "View my cart" to change quantities and desired Products, or return to the product pages;
  • Validate the cart by clicking "Checkout";
  • Enter your email address to continue the order;
  • Log in to your customer account, or continue without registering by clicking "Continue as guest";
  • Enter your delivery and billing addresses, and choose the delivery method;
  • Choose the payment method.

Creating a customer account is not mandatory but allows you to enter personal information to facilitate future purchases, view and update your details, identify yourself before ordering, track current orders, and view your purchase history and invoices. If a Buyer orders as a guest, they will have access to order tracking by email via the "Track my order" link.

In accordance with Article L.221-5 of the French Consumer Code, before purchasing the Buyer can view a summary containing: the essential characteristics and unit price of each Product, the total price of the order (including applicable taxes), the available payment methods, the delivery terms, shipping and delivery costs, the Seller's contact details and those of its after-sales service, and the average delivery time.

Submitting the order constitutes a firm offer to purchase the selected Products, subject to these GTC and without prejudice to the Buyer's right of withdrawal (Article 6). Placing the order entails an obligation for the Buyer to pay the price of the Products concerned.

Any order is subject to the Seller's acceptance and may be refused in whole or in part for a legitimate reason — for example, if a Product is no longer available, payment was refused, the personal data provided proves incorrect, the Buyer has failed to meet obligations from a previous order, or an obvious error appears on a product page. If an order is refused, the Seller will inform the Buyer by email and, where applicable, refund amounts already paid.

Orders whose delivery address is not included in the list of countries offered for delivery on the Site's homepage cannot be accepted.

The sales contract is deemed concluded only upon the Buyer's receipt of the order confirmation email (the "Order Confirmation"), which will specify the order number, essential information about the Products purchased, the price, and the selected delivery terms.

3. Description and price of the Products

The Seller guarantees the authenticity of the Products sold on the Site. Essential characteristics are presented on each product page. Prices are displayed inclusive of all taxes; shipping costs, where applicable, are added and communicated before validation. The Seller reserves the right to change prices at any time without notice, though any change will not apply to orders already confirmed and still being processed.

4. Payment

Payment is made online using the methods available for the delivery country. Card details are transferred via an encrypted protocol to payment service providers; the Seller never has access to them. This information is used solely to process and pay for the order, issue refunds following a withdrawal, or report fraud to the competent authorities.

The order amount is debited only after the Order Confirmation has been sent. If payment is refused, the order is cancelled at no liability to the Seller, and the Buyer is informed by email without delay. Any fees applied by the card issuer, bank, or other payment institution are borne exclusively by the Buyer.

5. Shipping and delivery of the Products

Once prepared, the order is shipped to the postal address provided, according to the chosen delivery method; methods and prices vary by delivery country and are communicated before ordering. Once shipped, the Buyer receives a tracking number by email and may also track progress via "My order" in their customer account.

Ownership and risk of loss, damage, or destruction of the Products transfer to the Buyer upon delivery. The Buyer must check the order upon receipt; in the event of a damaged parcel or missing Product, reservations must be recorded on the delivery slip and the Seller contacted immediately via Customer Service with supporting documents. Failing such reservations and documents, the Seller reserves the right not to pursue the claim.

6. Right of withdrawal

In accordance with Article L.221-18 of the French Consumer Code, the Buyer has a right of withdrawal, exercisable without giving reasons within fifteen (15) days from receipt of the relevant Product (or, for orders delivered in several parcels, from receipt of the last parcel). Within that period, the Buyer must inform the Seller using the withdrawal form available under the "Return form" tab in the Customer Service section.

In accordance with Article L.221-28 of the French Consumer Code, the right of withdrawal does not apply to personalized Products.

The Seller will accept the exercise of this right only where: (i) returned Products have not been worn, soiled, washed, or damaged in any way; (ii) the identification tag remains attached as originally affixed; and (iii) the Products are returned in their original, undamaged packaging or equivalent protective packaging. For shoes, the sole and any protective film must also be intact — it is strongly recommended to try shoes on over a rug or carpet.

Once withdrawal has been notified, the Buyer must return the Products within fifteen (15) days, in their original condition, unworn, unwashed, with tags and intact packaging. Return costs are borne by the Buyer, and initial delivery costs are not refunded. A secure shipment with a tracking number is recommended; the Seller cannot be held liable for loss or damage during transport.

7. Refund timeframes and terms

Once the Seller has received the returned Products and verified the conditions in Article 6 are met, the Buyer receives confirmation that the return is accepted and that a refund or store credit will be issued for the purchase price. Returning all Products from a single order refunds/credits the full amount paid; returning only part of an order refunds/credits only the returned Product(s), with initial delivery costs remaining at the Buyer's expense. The refund or store credit is issued as soon as possible, and no later than fourteen (14) days from receipt of the returned Products or proof that the return has been shipped.

Refunds are made via the payment method used for the purchase. If the recipient named on the order is not the person who paid, the refund is made to the payer's payment method.

For card payments, the refund normally occurs within two billing cycles, with a value date matching the original debit. For PayPal, refunds are credited to the Buyer's PayPal account and visible immediately; the effective refund to any linked card depends on the card issuer.

8. Warranties

The Buyer must ensure delivered Products correspond to the order. Beyond the right of withdrawal, Products benefit from the legal warranty of conformity (Articles L.217-4 et seq. of the French Consumer Code) and the warranty against hidden defects (Articles 1641 et seq. of the French Civil Code).

The legal warranty of conformity applies when a Product does not function in accordance with its usual use or does not match its description. The warranty against hidden defects covers defects not apparent at the time of sale that make the Product unfit for its intended use or significantly reduce that use. Neither warranty applies in the event of misuse or failure to follow the Product's care instructions.

Under the legal warranty of conformity, the Buyer has two (2) years from delivery to act; may choose between repair or replacement, subject to Article L.211-9 of the French Consumer Code; and is not required to prove the lack of conformity for twenty-four (24) months following delivery (six (6) months for second-hand Products). The Buyer may instead invoke the warranty against hidden defects under Article 1641 of the French Civil Code, choosing between rescission of the sale or a price reduction under Article 1644. The Buyer must contact Customer Service to arrange the return of damaged, defective, or incorrect Products.

9. Personal data

All information relating to the processing of the Buyer's personal data is available in the Privacy Policy on the Site.

10. Force majeure

Any event of force majeure within the meaning of Article 1218 of the French Civil Code suspends the obligations affected by it, and the affected party will not be held responsible for its inability to perform. That party must inform the other party within fifteen (15) days of the event's occurrence.

11. Disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability

These GTC set out all obligations and liabilities of the Seller regarding the online sale of Products. The Seller does not guarantee that Products are suitable for specific uses intended by the Buyer, who remains solely responsible for assessing whether Products meet their needs, and cannot be held liable for use inconsistent with a Product's intended purpose.

The Seller takes great care in posting information, Product descriptions, and regular updates online, but cannot be held liable for non-substantial errors. Product images are not contractual, as colors, fabrics, or textures may differ from the actual Products for reasons not attributable to the Seller, including the Buyer's browser or equipment.

The Seller cannot be held liable for: interruptions or delays on the Site or Customer Service due to maintenance, technical failures, force majeure, or other circumstances beyond its control; or the Buyer's temporary inability to access the Site or Customer Service due to events beyond the Buyer's control (computer breakdowns, network interruptions, etc.). The Seller is likewise not liable for loss, alteration, or fraudulent access to personal data, or accidental transmission of viruses or other harmful elements from internet access or email. In any event, the Seller's liability is limited to direct damages only.

12. Miscellaneous provisions

These GTC do not govern the provision of services or sale of products by third-party companies present on the Site via links, banners, or other hyperlinks. Buyers are advised to review such third parties' own terms before ordering; the Seller cannot be held liable for services or transactions between Site users and third parties.

Each provision of these GTC is separate and independent from the others. If any provision is found null, invalid, or unenforceable, the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions is unaffected. If the Seller does not require performance of a provision at any time, this is not a waiver of the right to invoke it later.

13. Applicable law and dispute resolution

These GTC are governed by French law. In the event of a dispute, and before any referral to the consumer mediator, the Buyer must contact the Seller by letter or email via Customer Service to attempt an amicable resolution.

Failing amicable settlement, the Buyer may refer the matter free of charge to CMAP (Centre de Médiation et d'Arbitrage de Paris) — via the form at www.cmap.fr/consommateurs, or by post at CMAP – Service Médiation de la consommation, 39 avenue Franklin Roosevelt, 75008 Paris. Any mediation request must indicate the subject of the dispute and include supporting documents.

The European Commission also provides a platform for out-of-court dispute resolution at ec.europa.eu/odr. Any difficulty or dispute concerning orders and/or these GTC not resolved through mediation falls under the exclusive jurisdiction of the French courts.
