In accordance with the national and European regulations in force, the Customer has a permanent right of access, modification, rectification and opposition with regard to information concerning him or her.

This right may be exercised in accordance with the terms and conditions set out on the website [www.dahomeyspirits.com].

Article 21 - Intellectual property.

The content of this website is the property of [Dahomey's spirits sarl] and is protected by French and international intellectual property laws.

Any total or partial reproduction of this content is strictly prohibited and may constitute an infringement of copyright.

In addition, the company [Dahomey's spirits sarl] remains the owner of all intellectual property rights on photographs, presentations, studies, drawings, models, prototypes, etc., produced (even at the Customer's request) with a view to providing the Services to the Customer.

The Customer is therefore prohibited from reproducing or exploiting the said studies, drawings, models and prototypes, etc., without the express, written and prior authorisation of the company [Dahomey's spirits sarl], which may be subject to a financial consideration.

Article 22 - Anticipation.

The parties have agreed, within the framework of the provisions of article 1195 of the Civil Code, that a change in circumstances, for example, financial or economic, or material, "surrounding the conclusion of a transaction for the sale of the Vendor's products and services subject to these General Terms and Conditions of Sale and resulting, for example, in an increase in price of 5 euros will be fully assumed by the Customer even if these risks would make the performance of its obligations excessively onerous for the Customer, all other risks being assumed by the other party.

However, if the change in circumstances unforeseeable at the time the contract was entered into is definitive or lasts for more than 2 months, the present contract will be cancelled purely and simply in accordance with the terms defined in the "Cancellation for unforeseeable circumstances" article.

Article 23 - Enforcement in kind.

In the event of a breach by either party of its obligations, the party suffering the breach shall have the right to demand performance in kind of the obligations arising hereunder.

Notwithstanding the provisions of article 1221 of the Civil Code, the creditor of the obligation may pursue this forced performance after a simple formal notice, sent to the debtor of the obligation by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt which has remained unsuccessful, whatever the circumstances and even if there is a manifest disproportion between its cost to the debtor and its interest to the creditor.

It is recalled that in the event of a breach by either party of its obligations, the defaulting party may, in accordance with the provisions of article 1222 of the Civil Code, 10 days after sending a formal notice to perform which has remained unsuccessful, itself have the obligation performed by a third party, at the expense of the defaulting party, provided that the cost is reasonable and in line with market practice, without judicial authorisation being required for this purpose, it being understood that the defaulting party may also, at its option, request in court that the defaulting party advance the sums necessary for this performance.

Article 24 - Exception of non-performance.

Pursuant to article 1219 of the French Civil Code, either party may refuse to perform its obligation, even if it is due, if the other party fails to perform its obligation and if such failure to perform is sufficiently serious, i.e. likely to jeopardise the continuation of the contract or fundamentally upset its economic equilibrium.

The suspension of performance will take effect immediately upon receipt by the defaulting party of the notice of default sent to it for this purpose by the defaulting party, indicating the intention to apply the exception of non-performance for as long as the defaulting party has not remedied the breach established, served by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt or on any other durable written medium that provides proof of posting.

This defence of non-performance may also be used as a preventive measure, in accordance with the provisions of article 1220 of the Civil Code, if it is clear that one of the parties will not perform its obligations on the due date and that the consequences of this non-performance are sufficiently serious for the party suffering the default.

This option is used at the risk and peril of the party taking the initiative.

The suspension of performance will take effect immediately, on receipt by the party presumed to be in default of notification of the intention to apply the exception of preventive non-performance until such time as the party presumed to be in default performs the obligation in respect of which a future breach is manifest, served by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt or on any other durable written medium that provides proof of posting.

If the impediment is definitive or lasts for more than 30 days, these GCS will simply be terminated in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in the Resolution for failure by a party to fulfil its obligations article.

Article 25 - Force majeure.

The parties shall not be held liable if the non-performance or delay in the performance of any of their obligations as described herein is due to force majeure as defined in article 1218 of the French Civil Code.

The party noting the event must immediately inform the other party of its inability to perform and justify this to the latter.

The suspension of obligations shall under no circumstances give rise to liability for non-performance of the obligation in question, nor result in the payment of damages or late penalties.

Performance of the obligation is suspended for the duration of the force majeure if it is temporary and does not exceed 30 days.

Consequently, as soon as the cause of the suspension of their mutual obligations disappears, the parties will make every effort to resume normal performance of their contractual obligations as soon as possible.

To this end, the party prevented shall notify the other party of the resumption of its obligation by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt or by any extrajudicial act.

During this suspension, the parties agree that the costs incurred by the situation will be borne by the party prevented from attending.

Article 26-1- Resolution for unforeseen circumstances

Termination due to the impossibility of performing an obligation that has become excessively onerous may only take place, notwithstanding the clause Termination for failure by a party to fulfil its obligations set out below, 10 days after formal notice has been sent declaring the intention to apply the present clause, notified by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt or by any extrajudicial act.

Article 26-2 - Termination for non-performance of a sufficiently serious obligation.

Article 26-3 - Termination due to force majeure

It is expressly agreed that the parties may terminate this contract by operation of law, without notice or formality.

Article 26-4 - Termination for failure of a party to perform its obligations.

Please note: The resolutory clause must specify the undertakings whose non-performance will result in termination of the contract, which must be listed in the resolutory clause itself (article 1225 of the French Civil Code).

It can only be implemented after formal notice, expressly mentioning the resolutory clause, has been served and remained unsuccessful, it being specified that the parties may agree in their contract that the formal notice would result from the sole fact of non-performance (article 1344 of the Civil Code).

In the event of non-compliance by either party with the following obligations :

"For example, non-payment on the due date of the products and services ordered by the Customer".

The contract may be terminated at the discretion of the injured party.

It is expressly understood that this termination for failure by a party to fulfil its obligations will take place ipso jure, with formal notice resulting from the sole fact of non-performance of the obligation, without summons or performance of formalities.

Article 26-5 - Provisions common to all cases of termination.

It is expressly agreed between the Parties that the debtor of an obligation to pay under the terms of this agreement shall be validly put in default by the mere fact of the obligation becoming due and payable, in accordance with the provisions of article 1344 of the French Civil Code.

As the services exchanged between the Parties since the conclusion of the contract and until its termination can only be of use if the contract is fully performed, they will be returned in full.

Article 27 - Applicable law - Language.

Please note: A contract concluded between a consumer and a professional may be subject to the law of a non-EU Member State, but this choice must not deprive the consumer of the protection afforded by the mandatory rules of Community law transposed into national law where the contract has a close link with the territory of a Member State.

The Order of 14 March 2016 No. 2016-301 relating to the legislative part of the Consumer Code institutes an identical presumption of a close link between the contract and a Member State in the following cases, in particular (art. L231-1), this list being non-exhaustive:

The contract was concluded in the Member State of the consumer's habitual residence; the trader directs his activity to the territory of the Member State in which the consumer resides, provided that the contract falls within the scope of that activity ;

The contract was preceded in that Member State by an offer specifically made or by advertising and by actions on the part of the consumer necessary for the conclusion of that contract; the contract was concluded in a Member State to which the consumer has travelled as a result of a travel or holiday offer made, directly or indirectly, by the company [Dahomey's spirits sarl] to induce him to conclude that contract.

The fact that a trader has shifted his activity to a Member State also makes it possible to determine which national court has jurisdiction to hear an intra-Community dispute relating to a contract concluded by a consumer (Reg. 44/2001 of 22-12-2000 art. 15, § 1-c).

For the purposes of applying this text, it has been ruled that the mere use of a website by a trader is not sufficient to consider that he is directing his activity towards the Member State of the consumer who makes a purchase via that website (CJEU 7-12-2010 aff. 585/08 and 144/09: RJDA 2/11 no. 205).

Other indicators are necessary, such as the site being written in a language other than that of the merchant.

These General Terms and Conditions of Sale and any transactions arising from them are governed by and subject to French law.

These General Terms and Conditions of Sale are written in French.

If they are translated into one or more foreign languages, only the French text will be deemed authentic in the event of a dispute.

Article 28 - Disputes.

All disputes to which the purchase and sale transactions entered into pursuant to these General Terms and Conditions of Sale may give rise, concerning their validity, interpretation, performance, termination, consequences and consequences and which cannot be resolved between the company [Dahomey's spirits sarl] and the customer, shall be submitted to the competent courts under the conditions of common law.

The Customer is informed that he may in any event have recourse to conventional mediation, in particular with the Commission de la médiation de la consommation (C. consom. art. L 612-1) or with the existing sectoral mediation bodies, the references of which appear on the " " website, or to any alternative dispute resolution method (conciliation, for example) in the event of a dispute.

If necessary, the User may choose a mediator whose role will be to find an amicable solution to the said "dispute".

You can find your mediator here: https://www.mediateurfevad.fr/

Failing this, any disputes will be referred to the competent ordinary courts.

Here are the contact details of the court to contact in the event of a dispute with the company [Dahomey's spirits sarl].

Article 29 - Pre-contractual information - Customer acceptance.

The fact that a natural person (or legal entity) places an order on the Internet site implies full and unreserved acceptance of these General Terms and Conditions of Sale and an obligation to pay for the products and services ordered, which is expressly recognised by the Customer, who waives, in particular, the right to rely on any contradictory document which would be unenforceable against the Vendor.
