1. Special conditions of sale
The customer acknowledges having read, at the time of placing the order, the special conditions of sale set out on the screen (name, price, component, weight, quantity, color, particularities of the products, cost of home delivery and limitation of certain categories of products) and expressly declares to accept them without reservation.

1.2 Special case of personalized decoration kits
We require an order deposit, in the amount of 100 CHF, for the design of the model of the decorative kit. This deposit will then be deducted from the total invoice amount for the products purchased.
The deposit of 100 CHF for the personalized model is not refundable as long as one of our graphic designers has already designed a model.
Personalized decoration kits cannot be returned or exchanged.
1.3 Color/print rendering of deco kits
The display on the computer screen, smartphone or tablet is in RGB color, the digital prints of the decorative kits are in CMYK color. This difference in display and processing can give different color nuances and/or shine.
The fact that the color or final printed result is not identical to the display on your screen cannot give rise to a return of the product. It will therefore not be possible to make an exchange or obtain a refund due to a significant difference between the screen/print rendering.
