In the absence of confirmation of the order in accordance with the terms defined above within fifteen (15) days from the date of sending the quote, the latter will be deemed null and void.

Deadlines and delivery

Mélanie Robin undertakes to deliver the services on the dates set in advance, mentioned in the quote, unless prevented or interrupted beyond her control.


Payment terms

Deposit


A deposit of 30 % of the total amount indicated on the quote, net of VAT, is due upon signing the quote, regardless of the amount. The quote signed and accompanied by payment of the deposit constitutes a firm order.

Pay


The balance of the service is due upon receipt of the invoice, and payable at the latest 30 days end of month from the invoice date, by bank transfer or PayPal.

In the event of late payment, the penalties provided for in Article 7 will be automatically applied.

In accordance with Articles L. 441-6 et seq. of the French Commercial Code, any amount not paid on the due date shown on the invoice will give rise, automatically and without any formal notice being necessary, to the application of:

Late payment penalties and fixed compensation will be automatically and immediately payable, without the need for a new enforceable title.

Cancelation

Cancellation requires full payment for the work already performed. To the extent that the service has not yet started, Mélanie Robin and the client may terminate the contract by mutual agreement.

The texts written remain the property of Mélanie Robin until full payment.


Confidentiality

The parties undertake not to communicate any of the information transmitted to them as part of the conclusion of the service and its execution, as well as not to use this information for their own account or that of third parties.

Responsibility of Mélanie Robin

Mélanie Robin is obligated to carry out her service successfully and also undertakes to deliver her service within the agreed timeframe.


Mélanie Robin is only bound by an obligation of means towards the client.

Complaints or disputes will always be received with attentive kindness.

Any complaint must be sent by email, from the day of receipt of delivery, within 48 hours.

In the absence of a complaint, the customer will accept the work delivered without reservation.

Force majeure

The parties may be exempted from their contractual liability by demonstrating the occurrence of a force majeure event, making the performance of the contract impossible beyond their control.

They must nevertheless inform the other party of the occurrence of this event by email.

In this respect, external, unforeseeable and irresistible events are considered to constitute force majeure.
