Art. 5 – Terms of payment - secure payment
Any order involves payment. These orders are payable in euros. Any bank charges will be borne by the Customer (including in the case of a refund).
Payment of Customer purchases is made by credit card or PayPal. Payments by check are not accepted. The Customer guarantees Caroline Macaron that they have the necessary authorisations to use the payment method that they have chosen for the order.
As an order will only be confirmed if the product(s) is/are available, the transaction will be immediately debited from the customer's bank card after verification of their data and upon receipt of debit authorisation from the company that issued the bank card used by the customer.
In accordance with the provisions of article L 132-2 of the Monetary and Financial Code, the undertaking to pay which is made by the use of a bank card is irrevocable. By communicating their bank card number and the information mentioned below, the Customer authorises Caroline Macaron to debit the total amount of their order, including VAT and delivery costs, from their bank card.
To this end, the Customer confirms that they are the holder of the bank card to be debited and that it is their name which figures on this bank card, then, in a secure environment on the website of our payment partner Caisse d'Epargne, provides the fifteen or sixteen digit number and expiry date appearing on the front of their bank card and, where required, the security code number on the back of their bank card.
In the event, for any reason whatsoever, that any sums payable by the customer cannot be paid, the sale will be immediately cancelled ipso jure and the purchasing process electronically cancelled.
Thanks to their secure space, Caisse d'Epargne is alone to have knowledge of the customer's banking information. This information does not transit in any way through the www.carolinemacaron.com website.
To combat internet fraud, Caroline Macaron has chosen to use the 3D Secure system implemented by financial institutions since January 1st, 2009.
The purpose of this 3D Secure standard is to request additional information, known to the bank and the cardholder during a transaction. This helps to strengthen the authentication of its customers during internet payments. This authentication verifies that the bank card is being used by its legitimate owner.
Specifically, when making a payment on a retail website with the "MasterCard Secure Code", "Verified by Visa" and "American Express Safekey" logos, a new window appears asking for personal information of the payer. This may be the card holder's birth date or a secret code depending on the internet user’s bank. This data entry control verifies that the internet user making the payment is the person associated with the card in use. If you are not yet in possession of your 3D Secure PIN code, please contact your bank.
This authentication is mandatory and any refusal to enter this personal information or any mistyping of the payer's personal information will result in the transaction's cancellation.
Caroline Macaron delivers the orders worldwide. Deliveries are made to the address provided on the order form. This address determines the shipping fees.
Delivery offered in Metropolitan France is performed in colissimo (with signature upon delivery) within a period of 5 (five) working days (unless mentioned otherwise on the product page).
Outside of Metropolitan France, Caroline Macaron invites the Customer to consult the table below to evaluate his shipping fees. It is important to notify that the shipping fees mentioned below have to be applicated for each unique product ordered. For example, if the Customer orders 2 (two) products, he will have to multiply the shipping fees by 2 (two).
Art. 7 – Custom fees & taxes
All orders made through the Site and delivered outside of France could be subject to applicable taxes and customs duties, which will be levied upon delivery of the parcel. These eventual custom duties and taxes due upon delivery are owed by the Customer and are solely his responsibility. Caroline Macaron is under no obligation to ascertain the applicable custom duties and taxes or to inform the Customer thereof. In order to determine these costs, it is recommended that the Customer check with the country of delivery’s competent authorities.
Art. 8 – Satisfied or refunded
8.1 Withdrawal period and conditions
Caroline Macaron agrees that their customers who are not satisfied with an ordered item may exercise their right of withdrawal provided for in Article L.221-18 of the Consumer Code under the best conditions.
