8. PAYMENT 

8.1. Payment by credit or debit card

You may pay by credit or debit card, as indicated on the Website or through the Point of Contact.

Your billing address must be in one of the countries indicated in Clause 2 above. Cards with a billing address outside one of the countries indicated in Clause 2 above will not be accepted.

When ordering on the Website, you will need to enter your payment details on the appropriate form. If you order by telephone, you will need to communicate to the Point of Contact your credit or debit card number and your three- or four- digit security code that is printed on the back or the front of your card (CVV2/CVC2/CID). Your telephone conversation may be recorded for security and quality control purposes. Any telephone conversation recorded by our Point of Contact that contains your credit card information will be fully encrypted and only used to process card transactions. Please refer to our Privacy Policy for more details about how and how long we may use or keep your personal information.

All credit/debit card holders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to authorise payment to L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels, you will need to contact your card issuer directly to solve this problem, and L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.

In order to process your order, we may perform a pre-authorisation of your card. The amount of your purchase will be blocked on your card until your order is confirmed at which time you will be sent a Confirmation of Order and your card will be charged the applicable purchase price. By submitting an offer to purchase L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels Services on the Website or through the Point of Contact, you expressly authorise L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels to perform such pre-authorisation and, where L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels deems necessary, to transmit or to obtain information (including any updated information) about you to or from third parties, including but not limited to your card number, to authenticate your identity, to validate your card, to obtain an initial card authorisation and to authorise individual purchase transactions. Please refer to our Privacy Policy for more details about how and how long we may use or keep your personal information.

8.2. Security

L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels takes precautions — including administrative, technical, and physical measures — to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft, and misuse, as well as against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption on all web pages where personal information is collected.

Although we will do our best to protect your personal information throughout the online selling process, we cannot guarantee the security and integrity of the data you transmit to the Website and be held liable for any harm or loss resulting from the use of the internet network, such as in the case of hacking. For more information about how we use and protect your information please view our Privacy Policy.

In order to secure your transaction and prevent fraud, L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels will perform a credit card and anti-fraud check. By placing your order, you will be deemed to have authorised L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels to perform such checks and, where L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels deems necessary, from time to time to transmit or obtain information that you have provided to L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels about you in order to authenticate your identity, to validate your credit card, to obtain an initial credit card authorisation and to authorise a particular purchase transaction.

9. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF ORDER

Once you have placed your order through the Point of Contact or on the Website, you will receive an Acknowledgement of Order by e-mail acknowledging the details of your order. This Acknowledgement of Order will contain an Order Reference Number assigned by L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels. Please make sure that you save this Order Reference Number for any future enquiries regarding your order. This Acknowledgement of Order is not an acceptance of your order. Following the transmission of the Acknowledgement of Order, L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels will conduct its usual security checks and then process your order.

When ordering by telephone through the Point of Contact, you will also receive by e-mail these Conditions of Sale along with the Acknowledgement of Order. Please carefully review these Conditions of Sale upon receipt.

10. CONFIRMATION OF ORDER BY L'ECOLE VAN CLEEF & ARPELS

Upon acceptance of payment, following completion by L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels of security checks, L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels will send you by e-mail a written Confirmation of Order.

The Confirmation of Order constitutes the acceptance of your order by L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels and indicates the existence of a binding contract.

11. INVOICES

When ordering Services on the Website or through the Point of Contact, you, as the Client, will have the option to choose whether you wish to receive an invoice to your billing address. If you decide at this moment that you do not want to receive an invoice, you may request an invoice no longer than 12 (twelve) months after purchase confirmation by calling the Point of Contact (telephone number indicated on the Website) subject to providing proper identification to the Point of Contact.

Please note that L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels will not send the invoice and payment details to the gift recipient.

12. CANCELLATION BY L'ECOLE VAN CLEEF & ARPELS

L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels may exceptionally cancel sessions, conversations and other Services in case of force majeure or if the professor is not able to attend the session.

If that is the case, we will contact you immediately and postpone the Services to a later date. If postponing is not possible, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which we informed you about the cancellation, but no other form of compensation will be due by L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels.

13. CLIENTS' RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

You will have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day of the conclusion of the contract.

If you make an express request to L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels to begin the performance of the Services during the withdrawal period, you shall pay L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels an amount which is in proportion to what has been provided until you have communicated us your decision to withdraw from the contract, in comparison with the full coverage of the contract. L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels will send you an invoice or deduct this cost directly from the refund.

14. LEGAL GUARANTEE

You may have mandatory legal rights under applicable national legislation governing the sale of Services; those legal rights are not affected by these Conditions of Sale.

15. ACCURACY OF PRICING, SERVICE DESCRIPTIONS

While L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels endeavours to verify the accuracy of any information it places on the Website, in advertisements or catalogues or by the Point of Contact, it makes no guarantees, whether express or implied, in relation to the accuracy, reliability and completeness of such information. L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels does not confirm the price of a L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels Service until a Confirmation of Order has been issued by L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels, indicating the existence of a binding sales contract. If a L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels Service's current price is different than the price posted on our Website, then L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels will either contact the Client for instructions or, if L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels cannot obtain your instructions, reject the order and notify you of such rejection.

While every effort will be made to ensure that the descriptions, photographs or graphical representations relating to the L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels Services detailed on the Website or in a catalogue are as accurate as possible, L'ECOLE Van Cleef & Arpels does not warrant that such materials or other content are error-free, whether as a result of inaccuracy, omission, obsolescence or otherwise.
