For online sales, a confirmation email is sent upon receipt of payment. This email can be facilitated through the payment interface (Paypal or Bank).

GIFT VOUCHER: A purchased Gift Voucher is valid for 6 months from the date of purchase. The voucher’s validity date will be stated on the confirmation document.

COUPLE OFFER: The so-called “couple offers” are exclusively reserved for events pre-organized by Paroles de Fromagers. They do not apply to private events.

TASTING CANCELLATION-RESCHEDULE: Any paid reservation for a tasting is firm and final. > In case of your unavailability, Paroles de Fromagers offers the option to reschedule your participation to another date, with a limit of one reschedule. Since Paroles de Fromagers works with “living” products, your request must be made no later than 7 days before the tasting via email at contact@parolesdefromagers.com. It should include your name, the date and theme of the relevant tasting, and the new desired date if applicable. > In the event of Paroles de Fromagers’ unavailability, you will be offered either rescheduling the tasting for another date or a refund of the reservation via the payment method (credit card, check, bank transfer, or cash) used during the reservation. Minor Protection: In accordance with the law, alcohol tasting is prohibited for minors. The recipient therefore undertakes to be 18 years old at the date of ordering a tasting service. Paroles de Fromagers disclaims any responsibility for any law violation unknown to the presenter on the part of the recipient.

REFUND: If cancellation conditions are met and the user requests a refund of their service, the customer agrees to bear the reservation fees incurred by Paroles de Fromagers, which will not be refundable.

DELIVERY: Specify your delivery preferences in the corresponding section of the order form (preferred delivery day, etc.). Upon receiving the products, check the condition and contents of the packages.

SHIPPING COSTS: Regarding online product sales, a variable contribution to transport costs is applied. For purchases over €89, shipping costs are waived.

Neither party will have failed to meet its contractual obligations to the extent that their performance is delayed, hindered, or prevented by fortuitous events or force majeure. Any irresistible, external, unpredictable, unavoidable events or circumstances beyond the parties’ control that cannot be prevented by them, despite all reasonable efforts, will be considered force majeure or fortuitous events. The party affected by such circumstances will notify the other within ten business days of the date on which they became aware of them. The two parties will then meet, within one month, unless prevented by force majeure, to examine the impact of the event and agree on the conditions under which the contract will be executed. If the force majeure event lasts more than three months, these general conditions may be terminated by the injured party. Expressly considered as force majeure or fortuitous events are those usually recognized by French courts and tribunals, including transportation or supply chain disruptions, earthquakes, fires, storms, floods, lightning, telecommunication network shutdowns, or difficulties specific to telecommunication networks external to customers.

Article 15: Partial Non-Validation

If one or more provisions of these general conditions are deemed invalid or declared as such under the law, regulations, or a final decision of a competent court, the remaining provisions will retain their full force and scope.

Article 16: Non-Waiver
