ARTICLE 8 - WARRANTY

All Products for sale on the Website benefit from the legal guarantee of conformity and the guarantee against hidden defects, in accordance with Consumer Protection regulations in force, allowing you to return the Products delivered defective or non-compliant. 

8.1 LEGAL GUARANTEE OF CONFORMITY: The Seller is required to deliver goods in conformity with the contract concluded with the Consumer and to respond to any lack of conformity existing at the time of delivery of the Product. The guarantee of conformity could be exercised if a defect should exist on the day of delivery of the Product. However, where the defect has become apparent within the period stated by law and regulations (“Warranty Period”), it shall be presumed to fulfil this condition. But the Seller may dispute this presumption if it is not compatible with the nature of the Product, or the lack of conformity invoked. 

On the other hand, after this Warranty Period, it will be up to the Customer to prove that the defect existed at the time of delivery of the Product. 

In the event of a lack of conformity, the Customer may choose between repair and replacement of the Product(s). However, the Seller may not proceed according to the choice of the Customer if this choice entails a manifestly disproportionate cost compared to the other modality, taking into account the value of the Product(s) or the importance of the defect. The Seller is then required to proceed, unless impossible, according to the modality not chosen by the buyer. 

8.2 LEGAL GUARANTEE AGAINST HIDDEN DEFECTS: The Customer may also decide to implement the guarantee against hidden defects of the thing sold if (i) the defects presented did not appear at the time of purchase; (ii) were prior to the purchase (and therefore do not result from normal wear and tear of the Product, for example), and (iii) are sufficiently serious (the defect must either render the Product unfit for the use for which it is intended, or diminish such use to such an extent that the buyer would not have purchased the Product or would not have purchased it at such a price if he had known of the defect). In this case, the Customer may choose between the resolution of the sale or a reduction of the sale price.

The action resulting from hidden defects must be brought by the Customer within the Warranty Period from the discovery of the defect. 

8.3 EXERCISE OF THE RIGHT TO THE GUARANTEE: Requests for replacement or refund for a non-compliant Product(s) as described in Articles 8.1 and 8.2 must be made by email to the following address: contact@egotier.com.

All requests must be accompanied by: 

Any request for warranty implementation made without complying with the conditions set out above will not be taken into account.

You must then send the Product to the address that will be communicated to you, the shipping costs will be at our expense. If the Product is sent to an address other than the one we have indicated to the Customer, we reserve the right to return the Product to the Customer postage due. The latter must then return the Product to the correct address.

After verification and validation of the problem, we will offer you: (i) to replace the Product (only if the replacement Product is in stock); (ii) to refund the amount of the purchase in the form of a voucher including delivery costs (if you want another form of refund, please let us know, but the delivery costs will not be refunded). 

If necessary, the replacement or refund is subject to receipt of the defective Product returned by the Customer, but the costs of the exchange or refund procedure (including the return shipping costs of the Product) will then be borne by us. 

ARTICLE 9 - LIABILITY 

The Products offered by the Website comply with the regulations in force.
