Article 1. Object
 
The present Conditions regulate the sale of LIVY « lingerie » and « ready to wear » goods offered on the Website by the company byLI/VY, French Société par Actions Simplifiée, registered in the French Companies and Trade Registry under the number 822 683 595, having its registered address at d’Aguessau, 92100 Boulogne Billancourt (hereinafter referred to as "LIVY"), to any natural, non-merchant, and exclusively adult, person (hereinafter referred to as the “Customer”).
 
Article 2. Goods
 
2.1 Characteristics of the Products 
The Products offered for sale online are those presented on the Website. They are described and reproduced by LIVY on the Website with as much accuracy as possible. The information communicated on the Product description page notably mention the essential characteristics of the Products (colors, description, composition, maintenance, dimensions), their price (inclusive of tax).
 
Nevertheless, LIVY draws the Customer’s attention on the fact that the photos can not insure a perfect similarity with the Products offered for sale, notably as regards colors, but also as regards the look of the Product on the Customer.
 
 
The differences can result from the quality of the photos’ color, de difficulty to display materials on the screen or, without this list being exhaustive, the technical adaptation. These differences can not be interpreted as lack of conformity and result in the invalidity of the sale.
 
 
In case of a non-significant manifest error or omission between the characteristics of the Product and its representation and/or its description, LIVY can not be held liable.
 
The Product offers and the prices (except when the terms of Article 3 of the present General Terms and Conditions of Sale apply) displayed on the Website are valid as long as they are displayed on the Website, within the limit of available stocks. 
 
2.2. Product Availability
 
The Products are offered for sale within the limit of available stocks, subject to a stock variation. Only the Products displayed on the Website at the time of the visit by the Customer are offered for sale.
 
Hence, when the offer is placed, the availability of the selected Product is confirmed by the Website.
 
In case the Product is not available due to a variation of the stock, LIVY will inform the Customer in the shortest amount of time possible by email and will indicate, if applicable, the waiting time for the delivery of the Product. The Customer will be able to confirm its order or ask for a reimbursement of the Product on the basis of the invoiced price.
The costs of preparation and delivery will be reimbursed to the Customer if the latter confirms the cancellation of the entire order.
The costs of preparation and delivery will be borne by the Customer if the latter confirms the delivery of one or more other Products that are part of the same order.
 
Article 3. Price
 
The prices are indicated in euros (€) all tax inclusive, including VAT and exclusive of preparation and delivery costs which depend on the selected countries. The prices indicated include the applicable VAT at the day of the order. Should the VAT amount be amended, it would be automatically applied to the prices of the articles. The lump sum for participation to the costs of preparation and delivery is communicated to the Customer on the order summary, before the order is confirmed.
 
 
Any order shall imply acceptance of the prices and descriptions of the Products available for sale.
 
At any time, LIVY reserves the right to amend the prices and descriptions of the Products and notably in case of increase of taxes applicable to sales and notably the amount of VAT, and/or in case of a manifest typing or entry error.
 
Nevertheless, the Products will be invoiced based on the applicable price at the time the order is placed, except manifest error.
 
Indeed, despite LIVY’s care, it is possible that errors on the price occur on the Website, no matter the reason (computer error, manual error, technical error...). If orders are placed for prices that are wrong or manifestly low (worthless price), or if reductions that are not justified are wrongly applied, the orders will be cancelled, even if they were confirmed. LIVY will then inform each of the concerned Customers, so that they can, if they wish, place the order again at the right price.

5.1 Delivery methods :
 
The parcels are delivered, at the Customer’s choice: 
 
by Mail services at the Customer’s home or any other address of its choice (to be specified in the delivery form), provided it is located in one of the countries listed in Article 5.2,
 
LIVY processes the parcels from Monday to Friday. In general, all orders are processed within 2 to 3 work days. The additional processing periods are those of our transport partners. Generally, they do not exceed 5 days for Metropolitan France and 7 days for Europe.
 
 
Warning, at certain times (Sales, Private Sales...) the period of time for processing the orders may be longer in light of the high number of parcels to process.
 
Generally, LIVY takes all measures to ensure the parcels are delivered within the indicated time frames, but aside from its own delays of which it is responsible (which can not be above 72 hours except particularly busy periods), LIVY depends especially on the third party companies that are in charge of the delivery and thus can not guarantee the date of delivery.
 
At home delivery by the Mail services
If the Customer is absent: a notice will be left in its mailbox. The parcel will be kept at the Mail office that is closest to the delivery address for 15 days.
 
 
5.2 Delivery zones
 
Metropolitan France, Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, Finland, United Kingdom, Guadeloupe, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Martinique, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Reunion, Sweden and United-States.
For parcels sent outside the European Union (EU) and DOM-TOM, customs duties or other local taxes or import duties or state taxes may be payable.
The payment of these duties and sums are the sole responsibility of the Customer, regardless of the amount.
 
5.3 Delivery Timeframes
 
All deliveries are carried out in an approximate timeframe of 7 days starting at the date of the order.
 
In case the Products are not received, the Customer must inform LIVY at the latest 30 days from the date of the order. Indeed, the investigations carried out before the Mail services to locate the parcel can last up to 30 days.
