10. DELIVERY

10.1. Delivery Location

Products will be sent by the Company to the delivery address previously provided by the User at the time of validating their Order. In case of an error in the wording of the email address or the details transmitted by the User, the Company cannot be held responsible for the inability to confirm the Order or to carry out the delivery to the User.

10.2. Shipping Costs
Shipping costs are also indicated during the summary of the Order. Shipping costs depend on the chosen delivery mode, the delivery zone, and the weight of the Order.

10.3. Delivery Times
The maximum delivery time is 30 (THIRTY) working days from the order of the Products, except in cases of force majeure or unless specifically indicated to the User before placing the order and before its final validation.

10.4. Successful Delivery
Each delivery is deemed made as soon as the User (with or without signature) receives the ordered Product(s), receipt verified by the delivery system used by the carrier. It is the User's responsibility to check the shipments upon arrival and to make all reservations and claims that would appear justified, or even to refuse the package, if it is likely to have been opened or if it shows obvious signs of deterioration. Such reservations and claims must be addressed to the carrier by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt within three working days following the delivery of the products, and a copy must immediately be sent to the Company.

10.5. Delivery Delays
In case of non-receipt of Products for reasons related to the recipient (wrong or incomplete delivery address, non-collection of the package from the carrier, missing information on the mailbox, etc.), the package will be reshipped by the Company at the User's expense after full payment of these reshipping transport costs. In case of sales outside France, the Company cannot be held responsible for a blockade by customs or other control body in the destination country, and no compensation can be requested from the Company in case of seizure or blockade. In case of delivery delay within the delivery times provided in section 10.3, the User may instruct the Company by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt to Lauren Rubinski - Customer Service, 15 rue Saint-Benoît 75006 Paris Paris or by email to hello@laurenrubinski.com to perform the delivery of the Products within an additional reasonable time (which cannot be less than 15 (FIFTEEN) days). Should the Company fail to deliver within this new deadline, the User may cancel the Order by informing the Company by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt to Lauren Rubinski - Customer Service, 15 rue Saint-Benoît - 75006 Paris Paris or by email to hello@laurenrubinski.com. The Order is considered resolved upon receipt of this letter, unless it has been executed between the sending of the letter by the User and its reception. In case of cancellation of the Order, the Company must refund all amounts paid within 14 (FOURTEEN) days from this cancellation, made under the conditions set forth above. The full refund of the Product(s) and the shipping costs, or where applicable, the reshipping costs, is then carried out by the Company. Any cancellation not made in accordance with the rules defined above cannot be taken into account and releases the Company from any responsibility towards the User. Similarly, a refund will not be due if the Product was sent before the end of the said 30 (THIRTY) days period and the delay is not attributable to the Company. The Company cannot be held responsible for consequences due to a delivery delay. Shipping times are given as an indication only; therefore, in case of non-compliance with these times, the buyer cannot claim payment of damages from the Company.

10.6. Risk Assumption
The Company cannot be held responsible for non-compliance with the legislation of the country to which a product is delivered; it is up to the User to check if the legislation of the state in which they wish to be delivered allows the purchase of the products sold by the Company. The User takes full responsibility regarding the legislation of their country and the country of delivery, and the Company is not held to any responsibility and commitment regarding the billing and delivery country. The risks are transferred to the charge of the purchasing User from the moment of physical possession of the Products. The User is informed that the Company uses a carrier for the transport of the Products, which is in charge of the transport risk. However, current regulations impose that the Company is the User's sole interlocutor. Therefore, in case of non-conformity, loss, or damage of the Product(s) due to transport, the User must contact the Company promptly so that it can take the necessary steps with the carrier. The User is informed that the shipping times of the Products are announced subject to: 1) available stock; 2) payment of the Order Price and Shipping Costs by the User; 3) the absence of suspicion by the Company of fraud or fraudulent act concerning the User. However, it is specified that when the consumer entrusts the delivery of the good to a carrier other than the one proposed by the professional, the risk of loss or damage to the good is transferred to the consumer upon handing over the good to the carrier, in accordance with Article L. 216-5 of the Consumer Code.

10.7. Delivery Insurance
The Company is responsible for the transport provider it has chosen for this delivery service of the Products. The Company cannot be held responsible for any other carrier chosen by the User and different from those proposed on its Website.

11. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

11.1. Standard Product Orders

11.1.1. Right of Withdrawal

In accordance with Articles L221-18 and subsequent of the Consumer Code, the User, identified as a consumer under the provisions of said code, has a period of 14 (FOURTEEN) days to exercise their right of withdrawal. The User is not required to justify the exercise of this right nor are they subject to penalties for doing so. To be valid, the exercise of the right of withdrawal must be communicated through the Withdrawal Form available in the appendix of the Terms and Conditions of Sale (TCS) or via an unambiguous statement indicating the desire to withdraw. This statement must be sent through any means that allows for the verification of the date and time of dispatch (mail to Lauren Rubinski - Customer Service, 15, rue Saint-Benoît, 75006 Paris, France, or email to hello@laurenrubinski.com). Furthermore, the Product must be returned complete within 14 (FOURTEEN) days following, in perfect condition and in its original packaging along with the Delivery Note, the Order Slip, and the accompanying declaration or withdrawal form. This right of withdrawal cannot be exercised if the Products are not returned intact and in their original seal (if sold sealed), show signs of tampering, or are not in a condition that allows for their resale to consumers. The Company reserves the right to appoint a laboratory to verify the authenticity of Products returned under the right of withdrawal. For information, Article L221-28 of the Consumer Code excludes any right of withdrawal for "contracts for the supply of goods which have been unsealed by the consumer after delivery and cannot be returned for reasons of hygiene or health protection."

11.1.2. Refund

Under these conditions, the Company commits to refunding the User the Price of the Order and the Shipping Fees. However, the Company is not obligated to refund additional shipping costs if the User expressly chose a more expensive delivery method than the standard delivery option offered during the transaction. The User will bear the cost of returning the Products. The refund will be processed within a maximum of 14 (FOURTEEN) business days from the receipt of the Product by the Company. The refund will be issued using the same payment method as was used for the original transaction, unless the User expressly agrees to a different payment method, provided that the refund does not incur additional fees. Any withdrawal not conducted in accordance with the above provisions will not be recognized and releases the Company from any liability towards the User. The burden of proof for exercising the right of withdrawal in accordance with legal provisions rests on the consumer.
