From this final validation click, the order is considered to be irrevocable.
Once the order is validated, the Customer is allocated an order number, which must strictly be kept in case of any subsequent claim and which may be printed out.
Once the order is recorded and payment is authorized by the bank, the Customer will receive a confirmation email containing the order details, and the order number. The sales contract comes into effect definitively the moment this confirmation email is sent.
For all exceptional orders (particularly for large quantity orders), the Customer is asked to contact Customer Services by clicking the "CONTACT" button.
CHARLES DE NEVEL reserves the right to cancel any order from a Customer with whom it is in dispute over a previous order, or if CHARLES DE NEVEL reasonably considers that the Customer has infringed the present General Terms and Conditions of Sale and Use or is engaged in fraudulent activities, or for any other legitimate reason.

Article 5: Payment

Payment method

The Customer may pay for the order using a bank card via the secure payment server. The following cards are accepted, and by swift transfert :

- Bank card via 3D Secure
 
- PAYPAL which uses the SSL protocol (Secure Socket Layer) resulting in the information being encrypted using software, with no third party able to consult this information during transit through the network.
 
- Bank transfer (our bank details necessary for the cash transfer will be provided to you at the time your order is confirmed)
 
- Gift vouchers or promotional coupons purchased online via our website are non-refundable.

The Customer is not able to pay online using any type of CHARLES DE NEVEL gift voucher or loyalty voucher, or credit notes issued by an CHARLES DE NEVEL store.

Secure payment

The Customer’s bank card details are encrypted using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol and are never sent unencrypted across the network. Payment is immediately processed by Crédit Agricole, which means that none of the Customer’s bank details pass through the site www.charles-de-nevel.com.
CHARLES DE NEVEL at no point has access to these details and does not store them on its servers. As a result, the Customer will be asked for them again for each new transaction on the site.
However, despite this encrypting, it is prudent to remember that no transmission of data via the internet can be 100% secure and that all information communicated online may potentially be intercepted and used by third parties other than the intended recipient.
The order is thereby recorded and validated as soon as payment is accepted by the bank.
