These general terms and conditions of sale (hereinafter "GTC") apply exclusively between any Customer and the company FC DESIGN (hereinafter "Grace & Mila") whose registered office is located at 110 Bis Avenue du Général Leclerc 93500 PANTIN registered in the Bobigny Trade and Companies Register under number 533 680 096.

The General Terms and Conditions of Sale are applicable without restriction or reservation to all Items offered for sale on the Site. Any Order on the Site is subject to prior and unreserved consultation and acceptance by the Customer of these General Terms and Conditions of Sale and the applicable prices.

The Customer's "click" on the "I accept" button accessible on the page dedicated to order validation constitutes acceptance of the T&Cs.

These T&Cs take precedence over any other document.

The sale of Articles on the Site is exclusively reserved for retail sale and to individuals.

Under no circumstances may the Site be used by professional seller Customers, alone or in groups, regardless of the method of marketing their products (online marketplaces, shopping malls, intermediaries, physical stores in particular)

The Customer therefore acknowledges and accepts that the Items may only be purchased in quantities corresponding to the average needs of a consumer, both in terms of the number of Items ordered in a single order and the number of individual Orders respecting the usual quantity of an average consumer placed for the same product.

Grace & Mila reserves the right to refuse an order clearly validated by a professional seller Customer.

Each Customer declares to be informed of the unreliability of the Internet network, especially in terms of relative security in the transmission of data, unguaranteed continuity in access to the Site, unguaranteed performance in terms of volume and speed of data transmission and the spread of viruses. Grace & Mila warns each Customer of the need to implement within their computer or portable or mobile equipment a solution and security measures likely to prevent the spread of viruses.

Anyone can freely and free of charge create a customer account via the "Create an account" section.

A customer account is created by completing the form provided to the user of the Site. This account is strictly personal and allows them to identify themselves before confirming each Order. When creating the Customer Account, the Customer enters the data that allows their identification under their full responsibility, control and direction and undertakes to provide complete, accurate and up-to-date information, and not to usurp the identity of a third party, nor to hide or modify their age.

When creating a Customer Account, the Customer chooses their username (email) and password. If the chosen username is already assigned, the system prompts them to choose another one.

Usernames and passwords are personal and confidential. While Grace & Mila takes all necessary precautions and is committed to protecting its Customers' personal data, the Customer is informed of the need to keep their password secret and not to disclose it to any third party, for any reason whatsoever.

If there is suspicion that the username and password have been used by a third party, the Customer must immediately alert Grace & Mila to change their password and/or choose to have their customer account closed.

Grace & Mila reserves the right to close any customer account and consequently refuse any sale to a Customer in the event of non-payment of one or more previous Orders.

In this case, Grace & Mila will send an email to the Customer concerned at the address provided by the latter when creating their customer account, informing them of the deactivation of their username and password and the closure of their account. The Customer will be given eight (8) calendar days' notice so that they may possibly submit their observations to Grace & Mila, without prejudice to the suspension of their Account during the notice period.

In general, the Client is informed that his account may be closed following the Client's first request sent by email to Grace & Mila.

The Items available for sale are those listed on the Site. Offers are valid as long as they are visible on the Site.

They are offered within the limits of availability displayed on the Site.

Grace & Mila reserves the right to withdraw from sale, at any time, any Item present on the Site and/or to replace or modify any information associated with the Items appearing on this Site.

In the event that an Item is unavailable, after placing the Order, the Customer will be informed by email. The Item will therefore be refunded before shipping any other items in the Order or if the Order only includes one Item, the Order will be canceled and refunded directly.

Grace & Mila undertakes to reimburse you as soon as possible and at the latest within 14 days following the cancellation of the Article.

The items for sale on this site are only available for delivery to the following territories: Metropolitan France, including Corsica and Monaco, French Overseas Territories (Réunion, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Guyana), Belgium, Luxembourg, Spain, the Netherlands, Italy, Portugal, Germany.

The characteristics of the Items sold on the Site (photographs, graphics and descriptions of the Items, etc.) are given for information purposes only and may vary over time. Only the visual of the Item displayed at the time of the Order must be taken into account by the Customer. The characteristics and visuals are not contractual.

In the event of errors or omissions relating to the description of an Item, Grace & Mila's liability is limited to the reimbursement of the reasonable costs of returning the Item incurred by the Customer.

Any Order implies an obligation to pay.

The Customer declares to be at least 18 years old and to have legal capacity, or if he is a minor, guarantees to have parental authorization to place his Order.

To place an Order, the Customer must follow the online purchasing process and click on “Order” to submit the Order.

Payment of the Order constitutes acceptance of these General Terms and Conditions, the price of the Items and the content of the Order.

After validation of payment, Grace & Mila sends the Customer an email confirming their Order.

All Orders are subject to prior acceptance by Grace & Mila and are only definitively confirmed after receipt by the Customer of an email confirming the dispatch of the Item(s).

Any Order may be refunded if it turns out that the conditions under which it was made are in breach of these General Terms and Conditions.

If the Customer does not receive any email following their Order, it is their responsibility to contact Grace & Mila customer service in accordance with the procedures described in article 12 of these General Terms and Conditions.

Grace & Mila cannot be held responsible in any way for any data entry or transmission errors attributable to the customer that prevent the delivery of the confirmation email and/or the Order. The Customer is recommended to print the confirmation email for their Order.

For any questions relating to the tracking of an Order, the Customer must consult their customer account on the Site or contact customer service in accordance with the procedures described in article 13 of these General Terms and Conditions.

Prices are indicated on the Site in euros, all taxes included (TTC), excluding shipping costs. They take into account VAT and any discounts applicable on the day of the Order.

Any new taxes or contributions, particularly environmental ones, may be passed on either upwards or downwards to the selling price of the Items.

The prices of the Products are exclusive of delivery costs (postage, packaging and preparation of the package according to the amounts in force).

The amount of shipping costs is specified on the Site before validation of the Order.

Grace & Mila reserves the right to modify the prices of the Items at any time, the Items being invoiced on the basis of the rates in effect at the time of validation of each Order.

The price of the Items invoiced is therefore that indicated when the Order was placed.

All orders imply an obligation to pay by credit card or instant bank transfer using a bank account with sufficient funds. The order is only final upon full payment of the price and associated fees.

The price charged to the Customer is the price indicated in the Order confirmation sent to the Customer by email. The Order is payable immediately by credit card (CB, Visa, MasterCard, Amex or via Apple Pay or Shop Pay).

If the customer chooses delivery to French overseas departments and territories (DOM/TOM): Chronopost delivery includes shipping costs as well as local taxes (VAT, overseas tax, and regional overseas tax). Taxes are automatically calculated and included in the final price of your order.

The Customer is informed by email, once the Order has been shipped, that their invoice including delivery charges and VAT applicable on the day of the Order, is accessible online in the customer account.

Payment for your order is made online, at the time of validation, via our secure payment solution Shopify Payments.
We accept the following payment methods:
Bank cards: Visa, MasterCard, American Express
Apple Pay (fast and secure payment from your Apple devices)
Shop Pay (accelerated payment and the option to pay in installments if available)
All transactions are secured using an encryption protocol that guarantees the confidentiality and integrity of your banking data.

These solutions feature highly secure pages for entering payment data: card number, expiry date, visual cryptogram and bank account IBAN.

These platforms encrypt and then transmit this payment data to the bank, in complete confidentiality and making it inaccessible to any third party.


The customer can save their bank details to their account. In this case, the data remains encrypted.

The Items are delivered to the delivery address indicated by the Customer when placing the Order, at the latest by the end of the period indicated when placing the Order, depending on the country of delivery.

Grace & Mila undertakes to ensure that delivery is made within a maximum of 30 (thirty) calendar days from the date of order.

2- Delivery to French Overseas Departments and Territories (DOM/TOM): Delivery times are 4 business days in Martinique, Guadeloupe, and Réunion with the carrier Chronopost. In cases of force majeure, such as airline strikes, carrier strikes, road or airport blockages due to weather conditions or collective protests, fuel shortages, weather conditions affecting the performance of the transport service (frost, snow, storms, hurricanes, floods, etc.), embargoes, wars, riots, acts of terrorism, epidemics, and any other event beyond Chronopost's control, delivery times may be extended. In this case, Chronopost undertakes to keep the Customer informed of the progress of their order's delivery.

In case of delay:

In the event of a delivery delay beyond the aforementioned maximum timeframe, the Customer may contact Grace & Mila Customer Service to request delivery within a reasonable additional timeframe. If this new timeframe is not met, the Customer may, by email or letter, cancel the contract and obtain a refund for their Order.

The contract and therefore the sale will be considered broken upon receipt by Grace & Mila of the email or letter by which the Client informs them of their decision, unless delivery has taken place between the sending and receipt of the Client's email or letter.

In the event that the Order is definitively cancelled, the Customer will obtain a refund of the price paid for their Order within 30 days of the date of cancellation by the Customer.

Each delivery is deemed to have been made upon the parcel being made available to the Customer, in particular by the carrier, as evidenced by the control system used by the carrier.

If the package is damaged or if the item does not match the customer's order, the customer must initiate the return procedure described in Article 11 below within 14 calendar days of shipment.

The customer has 14 days from receipt of their order to make a claim in the event of an incident.

Pursuant to Directive 2011/83/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 October 2011 on consumer rights and Law No. 2014-344 of 17 March 2014 as transposed into Articles L. 221-18 et seq. of the French Consumer Code, any consumer has the right to cancel their order at any time within 14 calendar days following the date on which they received the Item(s) and this without having to provide reasons or pay penalties.

Under these General Terms and Conditions, Grace & Mila wishes to grant the Customer a withdrawal period extended to 14 calendar days.

The Articles are guaranteed against defects of conformity and latent defects under the conditions provided for in articles 1641 to 1649 of the Civil Code and L 2171 et seq. of the Consumer Code, from the date of delivery:



Guarantee of hidden defects

Article 1641 of the Civil Code: the seller is bound by the guarantee for hidden defects in the thing sold which make it unfit for the use for which it is intended, or which reduce this use so much that the buyer would not have acquired it, or would have paid a lower price for it, if he had known of them.

Article 1643 of the Civil Code: he is liable for hidden defects, even if he was not aware of them, unless, in this case, he has stipulated that he will not be obliged to provide any guarantee.

Article 1644 of the Civil Code: in the case of Articles 1641 and 1643, the buyer has the choice of returning the item and having the price refunded, or of keeping the item and having part of the price refunded.

Article 1646: if the seller was unaware of the defects in the item, he will only be required to return the price and reimburse the purchaser for the costs incurred by the sale.

Article 1648 paragraph 1 of the Civil Code: the action resulting from latent defects must be brought by the purchaser within two years of the discovery of the defect.

Legal guarantee of conformity

Article L 2171-4 of the Consumer Code: the seller delivers goods that conform to the contract and is liable for any lack of conformity existing at the time of delivery. He is also liable for any lack of conformity resulting from the packaging, assembly instructions or installation when this has been made his responsibility by the contract or has been carried out under his responsibility.

Article L 217-5 of the Consumer Code: The goods comply with the contract

1 - If it is suitable for the use usually expected of a similar good and, where applicable:

2 - If it corresponds to the description given by the seller and has the qualities that the latter presented to the buyer in the form of a sample or model;

If it presents the qualities that a buyer can legitimately expect in view of the public statements made by the seller, by the producer or by his representative, in particular in advertising or labeling

Or if it has the characteristics defined by mutual agreement between the parties or is suitable for any special use sought by the buyer, brought to the attention of the seller and which the latter has accepted.

Article L. 217-7 paragraph 1 of the Consumer Code: Defects of conformity which appear within twenty-four months from delivery of the goods are presumed to exist at the time of delivery, unless proven otherwise.

Article L. 217-9 of the French Consumer Code: In the event of a lack of conformity, the buyer chooses between repair and replacement of the goods. However, the seller may not proceed according to the buyer's choice if this choice entails a cost that is manifestly disproportionate to the other option, taking into account the value of the goods or the extent of the defect. He is then required to proceed, unless impossible, according to the option not chosen by the buyer.

Article L 217-10 of the Consumer Code: If repair and replacement of the goods are impossible, the buyer may return the goods and have the price refunded or keep the goods and have part of the price refunded.

The same faculty is open to him:

1 - If the solution requested, proposed or agreed upon in application of Article L. 217-9 cannot be implemented within one month following the buyer's complaint;

2 - Or if this solution cannot be achieved without major inconvenience for the latter given the nature of the property and the use he is seeking.

However, the sale cannot be cancelled if the lack of conformity is minor.

Article L 217-11 of the Consumer Code: the application of the provisions of Articles L. 217-9 and L. 217-10 takes place at no cost to the buyer. These same provisions do not prevent the allocation of damages.

Article L 217-12 of the Consumer Code: the action resulting from the lack of conformity is prescribed by two years from the delivery of the goods.

The Customer may contact Grace & Mila via the Site's contact form or by email at eshop@graceandmila.com to collect any information relating to the exercise of these guarantees. In accordance with Article 23 of these General Terms and Conditions, the Customer shall contact Grace & Mila as a priority to seek an amicable solution when the Customer intends to invoke one of the aforementioned guarantees.

This guarantee allows the Customer to return the Items delivered defective or not in conformity with his Order for reimbursement under the above conditions.

The Customer acknowledges and accepts that the Order recording systems provide proof of all transactions between Grace & Mila and the Customer.

The Customer acknowledges and accepts that proof of his acceptance of these General Terms and Conditions (and any updates thereto) is demonstrated by checking the box "I accept" on the order confirmation page for each order.

To this end, the Client acknowledges and accepts that the computerized data stored on Grace & Mila's computer servers under reasonable conditions of security and integrity are considered, irrefutably, as proof of acceptance of the terms of the General Terms and Conditions and proof of all transactions between Grace & Mila and the Client.

Consequently, unless Grace & Mila proves a manifest error, the Customer will not be able to contest the admissibility, validity or probative force of the General Terms and Conditions and the content of the Order, on the basis of any legal provision whatsoever which would specify that certain documents must be written or signed to constitute proof.

Thus, these elements constitute evidence and, if produced as evidence by Grace & Mila in any litigation or other proceedings, will be admissible, valid and enforceable in the same manner, under the same conditions and with the same probative force as any document that would be established, received or kept in writing. At any time, the Client has the option to print, download, and keep a copy of the T&Cs on paper and electronic media.

Grace & Mila reserves the right to modify the information contained in this Site at any time and without notice.

Grace & Mila undertakes to describe the Items sold on the Site as accurately as possible and to ensure that the information published there is updated as best as possible.

The Customer acknowledges and accepts that the prices of the Items may vary between the Website and the stores, and that under no circumstances may this price difference be the basis for a request for a total or partial refund of the Items purchased either on the Website or in stores outside of the exercise of their right of withdrawal under the conditions provided for in Article 11 of these General Terms and Conditions.

Grace & Mila cannot be held liable for any breach of its contractual obligations resulting from a fortuitous event or force majeure as defined by the case law of the French courts. Force majeure is an external, unforeseeable and irresistible event.

Grace & Mila will not be held responsible for any non-performance or delay in the performance of Orders caused by events beyond its control (“Force Majeure Event”).

Grace & Mila will endeavor, as far as possible, to put an end to the Force Majeure Event or to find a solution enabling it to perform its contractual obligations despite the Force Majeure Event.

Given possible changes to the Site and regulations, Grace & Mila reserves the right to modify the T&Cs at any time.

Only the T&Cs in force at the time of conclusion of the contract will be binding on the customer.

The new T&Cs will, where applicable, be brought to the attention of the Customer by modifying the dedicated page of the Site. The Customer will then be invited to expressly consent to the new version of the T&Cs by clicking on the “I accept” button for each new order.

The latest version of the T&Cs can be downloaded on a reliable and durable medium from the dedicated page of the Site and in accordance with the terms indicated in the Preamble.

These General Terms and Conditions of Sale are governed by French law.

In the event of a dispute, the Customer shall first contact Grace & Mila to seek an amicable solution by contacting our customer service.

In accordance with the provisions of the Consumer Code relating to the amicable settlement of disputes, Grace & Mila has appointed CM2C (Centre de la Médiation de la Consommation de Conciliateurs de Justice) as consumer mediator.

After having first sent a written complaint to Grace & Mila and in the absence of a satisfactory response or resolution of the dispute, the Customer may refer the consumer mediator free of charge.

The mediator can be contacted:

Online: www.cm2c.net
By post: CM2C – 49 rue de Ponthieu – 75008 Paris
By e-mail: declarer-un-litige@cm2c.net
The mediation request must be accompanied by proof of the prior complaint sent to Grace & Mila.

Referring the matter to the mediator is free for the consumer.

Mediation can only be initiated if the Customer has previously taken written steps with Grace & Mila to try to resolve the dispute. This complaint must have been made within the last year.

Recourse to mediation is optional. The parties remain free to accept or refuse the solution proposed by the mediator.

The Customer can consult the referral procedures and mediation conditions directly on the CM2C website: www.cm2c.net.

This is an example of a response that you might give. It's good to be as thorough as possible in responses as that has a tendency to improve trust overall.
