  1. PAYMENT BY CREDIT CARD

SILLAM 1835 accepts the following credit cards: Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Apple Pay, Paypal.

When ordering on the Website, you will need to enter your payment details on the appropriate form. The Buyer guarantees to SILLAM 1835, when placing an Order via the Internet, that they are the holder of the bank card and that the name featured on this bank card to be debited is indeed the Buyer’s, and then provides the number and the expiry date featured on the front of their bank card in addition to the 3-digit or 4-digit security code featured on the front (or back) of their bank card via telephone or using a secured web page.

If you order by telephone, you will need to communicate to the Client Relations Center your credit card number and your three- or four- digit security code that is printed on the back or the front of your card (CVV2/CVC2/CID).  Your telephone conversation may be recorded for security and quality control purposes. Any telephone conversation recorded by SILLAM 1835 that contains your credit card information will be fully encrypted and only used to process card transactions.

All credit/debit card holders are subject to validation checks and authorization by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to authorize payment to SILLAM 1835, you will need to contact your card issuer directly to solve this problem, and SILLAM 1835 will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.

If, for any reason whatsoever (objection, refusal by the issuer’s payment processing centre, etc.), it proves impossible to debit the amount owed by you, any purchasing process via the Internet will be immediately cancelled.

In order to process your order, we may perform a pre-authorization of your credit card.  The amount of your purchase will be blocked on your credit card until your order is shipped to the shipping address you have provided to SILLAM 1835, at which time you will be sent a Confirmation of Order and your credit card will be charged the applicable purchase price.  By submitting an offer to purchase SILLAM 1835 products on the Website, you expressly authorize SILLAM 1835 to perform such credit card pre-authorization and, where SILLAM 1835 deems necessary, to transmit or to obtain information (including any updated information) about you to or from third parties from time to time, including but not limited to your credit-card number, to authenticate your identity, to validate your credit card, to obtain an initial credit card authorization and to authorize individual purchase transactions.

SILLAM 1835 takes precautions — including administrative, technical, and physical measures — to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft, and misuse, as well as against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.  SILLAM 1835 uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption on all web pages via Stripe and Shopify, where personal information is collected. Unfortunately, transmitting information over the Internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal Information, we cannot guarantee the security of the data you transmit to the Website; any transmission is at your own risk and we cannot be held liable. For more information about how we use and protect your information please view our Privacy Policy.

In order to secure your transaction and prevent fraud, SILLAM 1835 will perform a credit card and anti-fraud check.  By placing your order, you will be deemed to have authorized SILLAM 1835 to perform such checks and, where SILLAM 1835 deems necessary, from time to time to transmit or obtain information that you have provided to SILLAM 1835 about you in order to authenticate your identity, to validate your credit card, to obtain an initial credit card authorization and to authorize a particular purchase transaction.

    These Conditions of Sale are governed by and interpreted in accordance with French law. Should any dispute arise in relation to the application and/or interpretation of these General Terms and Conditions of Sale, the Customer may have recourse to contractually-agreed mediation proceedings or to any other method of alternative dispute resolution. Any so-called consumer disagreement or dispute may be resolved amicably via mediation conducted by CMAP (Paris Centre for Mediation and Arbitration), rather than in court. In order to submit a dispute to the mediator, the Customer can fill out the form published on the CMAP website: www.cmap.fr, tab “you are: a consumer”, send their request by simple letter or registered letter to CMAP Médiation Consommation, 39 avenue Franklin D. Roosevelt, 75008 PARIS, or send an email to consommation@cmap.fr. Whatever the method used to refer to CMAP, the Buyer’s request must contain the following in order to be processed quickly: their postal, email and telephone contact details as well as SILLAM 1835’s full name and address, a brief description of the facts and evidence confirming that they first tried to solve the dispute with SILLAM 1835.

    The Buyer remains free to accept or decline such recourse to mediation and, if recourse is made to mediation, each party remains free to accept or decline the solution suggested by the mediator.

    If either Party decides not to take action against the other Party in the event of a breach of any one of its obligations set out within these General Terms and Conditions of Sale, this may not be interpreted for the future as a waiver of the obligation in question.
