All products for sale on the Site benefit from the legal guarantee of conformity (as defined in articles L217-4 et seq. of the French Consumer Code) and the guarantee against hidden defects (as defined in articles 1641 et seq. of the French Civil Code), allowing the Customer to return defective or non-compliant Products delivered free of charge.

Legal guarantee of conformity

Article L217-4 of the French Consumer Code: "The seller is required to deliver goods in conformity with the contract and is responsible for any defects in conformity existing at the time of delivery. He is also responsible for defects in conformity resulting from the packaging, the assembly instructions or the installation when the latter has been put at his charge by the contract or has been carried out under his responsibility."

Article L211-5 of the Consumer Code: "To be in conformity with the contract, the goods must:

1) Be fit for the purpose usually expected of similar goods and, where appropriate :

correspond to the description given by the seller and have the qualities that the seller has presented to the buyer in the form of a sample or model;

have the qualities that a buyer may legitimately expect in view of the public statements made by the seller, the producer or his representative, in particular in advertising or labelling;

2) Or have the characteristics defined by mutual agreement between the parties or be suitable for any special use sought by the buyer, brought to the attention of the seller and accepted by the latter.

Article L211-12 of the Consumer Code: "The action resulting from the lack of conformity is prescribed by two years from the delivery of the goods."

Warranty against hidden defects

Article 1641 of the Civil Code: "The seller is bound by the warranty for latent defects of the thing sold which render it unfit for the purpose for which it was intended, or which so diminish this use that the buyer would not have acquired it, or would have given only a lesser price for it, if he had known about them."

Article 1648 of the Civil Code: "The action resulting from redhibitory defects must be brought by the purchaser within two years of the discovery of the defect. In the case provided for in article 1642-1, the action must be brought, under penalty of foreclosure, within one year from the date on which the seller may be relieved of the defects or apparent lack of conformity."

Within the framework of the legal warranty for latent defects, Akinom, at the Customer's option, undertakes, after evaluation of the defect :

- Either to refund the full price of the returned Product,

- or to refund a portion of the price of the Product if Customer decides to keep the Product.

Exclusion of guarantees

Products that have been modified, repaired, integrated or added by the Customer are excluded from the warranty. The warranty will not apply to visible defects. The warranty will not cover Products damaged during transport after delivery or due to misuse.

10.3 Terms and conditions of the legal warranty

Within the framework of the legal guarantee of conformity, the Customer:

(i) has a period of two (2) years from the delivery of the goods to act;

(ii) may choose between repair or replacement of the good, subject to the cost conditions provided for in Article L217-9 of the Consumer Code;

(iii) is exempted from proving the existence of the lack of conformity of the good during the two years.

The legal guarantee of conformity applies independently of any commercial guarantee that may have been granted.

The Customer may decide to implement the warranty against hidden defects of the thing sold within the meaning of Article 1641 of the Civil Code. In this case, he can choose between the resolution of the sale or a reduction of the sale price in accordance with Article 1644 of the Civil Code.

For any request concerning the legal guarantees, the Customer must contact the Customer Relations Department at hello@akinom.com.

These provisions are not exclusive of the right of withdrawal defined in Article 9 above.

10.4 Consequences of the implementation of legal guarantees

Within the framework of the legal guarantee of conformity, Akinom undertakes, at the Customer's choice

- either to replace the Product with an identical product depending on available stocks,

- or to refund the price of the Product if the replacement of a Product proves impossible.

Within the framework of the legal guarantee for hidden defects, Akinom, according to the Customer's choice, undertakes, after evaluation of the defect :

- either to refund the full price of the returned Product,

- or to refund a part of the price of the Product if Customer decides to keep the Product.

If the force majeure event continues for more than three (3) months, the relevant transaction may be terminated at the request of either Akinom or Client without compensation to either party. Failure to pay by the Client cannot be justified by force majeure.

XI - RETENTION OF TITLE

Akinom retains full ownership of the Products sold until full payment of the full price, including principal, fees, taxes and compulsory contributions.

XII - PARTIAL INVALIDITY

If one or more of the provisions of these GTC are held to be invalid or declared as such pursuant to a law, regulation or following a final decision of a competent court, the other provisions shall retain their full force and scope.

XVI - SPONSORSHIP

Akinom wishes to become involved in charitable works by joining forces.

Within the framework of this project, Akinom is partnering with several associations and endowment funds recognized as being of public utility for the financing of charitable projects, notably in medical research.

These associations are recognized as being of public utility and have been selected by Akinom for their seriousness, reputation, ethics and the values they share with Akinom.

Akinom is committed to donating all or part of the funds raised from the sale of products to these associations.

The funds thus collected consist of a transfer of all or part of the profits or turnover, as the case may be, made by Akinom from the sale of products.

Consequently, the purchase of these products does not constitute an appeal to the generosity of the public, nor a donation giving rise to a reduction in income tax within the meaning of Article 200 of the General Tax Code, for the purchaser of the products concerned.
