2. Application of Terms and Conditions : These general terms and conditions of sale (the " Terms and Conditions ") apply to all orders for Products (defined below in Article 3 of the Terms and Conditions) placed on the online store https://joyfuel-nutrition.com (hereinafter the " Website ") with the company Solinest, whose contact details are provided in the footer (" Solinest "), by a consumer, i.e., a natural person of legal age not acting for professional or commercial purposes (the " Customer "). As this is a B2C website and not a B2B website, the invoice is therefore inclusive of all taxes.

The General Terms and Conditions specify in particular the conditions of ordering, payment, delivery and handling of any returns of Products ordered by Customers.

These General Terms and Conditions apply to the exclusion of all other conditions, including those applicable to sales in stores or through other distribution and marketing channels. They prevail, where applicable, over any other conflicting document issued by the Customer.

3. Products :

3.1 Product Characteristics : The products are Joyfuel brand food products, including protein bars (the " Products "). Detailed descriptions of the Products are provided by Solinest on the Website to allow the Customer to understand the main characteristics of the Products before placing a final order. The Customer acknowledges having read, before placing any order, the description of each Product ordered and the specific ordering conditions mentioned on the Website (name, price, ingredients, weight, quantity, color, specific features of the Products, and where applicable, dimensions, size, and limitations of certain Products).

The photographs used to present the Products accurately reproduce the Products offered to the buyer, but minor variations in the representation of said Products do not engage the responsibility of Solinest and do not affect the validity of the sale.
Photographs and illustrations other than of Products, presented on the Site are not contractual and cannot engage the liability of Solinest.

For any other information or questions, our Customer Relations Service will be accessible according to the terms specified in article 19 below, the choice and purchase of the Product remaining in all cases under the responsibility of the Customer.

3.2 Availability of ordered Products : Product offers are subject to available stock, as specified when placing the order.

Solinest makes every effort to fulfill the Customer's order. In the event that Products are unavailable after the order has been registered, the Customer will be informed by email by Joyfuel Customer Service as soon as possible and will be offered either a Product exchange or a refund of the price of the Products within fourteen (14) calendar days from the date of placing and payment of the order.

4. Prices : The prices displayed on the Site are in euros, inclusive of all taxes, based on the VAT rate in force in France. Any order delivered outside mainland France may be subject to local taxes, customs duties, port taxes, and customs clearance fees upon delivery, as well as bank charges. Payment of these charges is the responsibility of the Customer.

Delivery charges depend on the order amount and the delivery location. The amount of these charges is shown to the customer during the order completion process in the " Your Order " section.

Solinest reserves the right to modify the prices of its Products at any time. However, the price of the Products cannot be modified after the Order has been validated. The price applicable to the Customer's order is the price in effect at the time the Customer validates their order by clicking on the " Order with obligation to pay " tab, plus delivery charges calculated based on the information entered by the Customer and displayed before the Order is finalized, as well as VAT.

5. Customer Account :

5.1 Account Creation Conditions : Before or at the same time as placing an order on the Site, the Customer may create a customer account (the " Customer Account ") by completing the form available for this purpose on the Site and checking the box relating to acceptance of the Terms and Conditions; otherwise, the Customer Account cannot be created. The Customer Account details, in particular, the Customer's contact information, order history, and available discount vouchers.

The Customer also chooses their delivery method, it being understood that the applicable delivery charges are borne by the Customer for all orders under fifty (50) euros in France;
  • Choose the payment method: “ Payment by Bank Card ” or “ Apple Pay ” and enter the payment information to finalize the order and pay for your order by clicking on the “ Check Order ” button.

Orders placed on the Site are automatically cancelled if full payment is not received. Order registration is confirmed by sending an automated email to the email address associated with the Customer Account or the address provided during express checkout, after payment has been received. The Customer will be informed of the order status only by email.

 

6.2 Sales Contract : The sale will only be considered final and ownership of the Products will only transfer to the Customer after validation and payment by the Customer in accordance with the instructions on the Website and after the Customer has received the order confirmation email. The invoice will be sent to the Customer within 2 days of placing the order.

The order confirmation email will summarize the essential details of the order (quantity, packaging, contents, maximum delivery date, amount, shipping address, etc.). It is the Customer's responsibility to verify the accuracy of the order and to report any errors immediately. For any order cancellation request before shipment, the Customer must contact Solinest's Customer Service department using the contact information provided in Article 19 of the Terms and Conditions and reiterated in the confirmation email, upon receipt of this email.

If the order concerns perishable items and is already being shipped, Solinest reserves the right to refuse cancellation or modification of an order, subject to the cases provided for in Article 19 below.

In accordance with Article L.213-1 of the French Consumer Code, when a sale involves an amount equal to or greater than €120 including VAT, Solinest retains the contractual documents for 10 years and guarantees access to them to the Customer, who may consult them upon simple request by email: hello@joyfuel-nutrition.com.

Solinest cannot be held liable for any alleged or actual damage, suffered directly or indirectly, by any Client following their connection to the Site, the consultation and/or use of the information provided on the Site or following the temporary impossibility of accessing the Site for technical maintenance or update reasons.

  • 6.4 Payment : The price is due in full upon confirmation of the order by the Customer. Payment for purchases made on the Site can be made by credit card from the Carte Bleue, Visa, or MasterCard network, or by Apple Pay.

It is specified that the Site has an online payment security system (“SSL protocol”), via an external platform managed by a payment provider Shopify International Limited - 1-2 Victoria Buildings, Haddington Road - Dublin 4 - D04 XN32 IRELAND , which guarantees the confidentiality of bank details and compliance with PCI DSS security standards.

Delivery is made according to the delivery method chosen by the Customer when placing their order on the Website, and is made to the delivery address specified during the order process (which may differ from the billing address). The estimated delivery time and costs are indicated on the order summary before the Customer confirms the order, and the cost amount depends on the order details (quantity ordered, delivery location, delivery speed, etc.). Delivery is considered complete upon the transfer of physical possession or control of the Product to the Customer. Unless otherwise specified or in the event of unavailability of one or more Products, the ordered Products will be delivered in a single shipment.

If the ordered Products have not been delivered within thirty days of the conclusion of the sales contract, for any reason other than force majeure, the sale may be cancelled at the Customer's written request under the conditions set forth in Articles L 216-1 et seq. of the French Consumer Code. The sums paid by the Customer will then be refunded no later than fourteen days following the date of cancellation of the contract, without any compensation or deductions.

The risk of loss or damage to the ordered product(s) is transferred to the Customer upon physical delivery, unless delivery is entrusted to a carrier other than those offered by Solinest. The Customer is required to check the condition of the delivered products and to send an email to hello@joyfuel-nutrition.com within 72 hours to inform Solinest of any damage. If the package is damaged or has been opened, the Customer is advised to refuse delivery or to note specific and detailed reservations on the delivery slip and reiterate these reservations by registered mail to the carrier within three (3) days of receiving the package.

The Customer then has eight days from delivery to submit, by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt, any reservations or claims regarding non-conformity or apparent defects in the delivered products, along with all supporting documentation (including photographs). After this period, and if these formalities have not been observed, the Products will be deemed compliant and free from any apparent defects, and no claim will be validly accepted by Solinest. For reasons of hygiene and food safety, perishable goods will not be returned or exchanged. However, Solinest will reimburse or replace, within 14 days and at its own expense, any delivered products whose apparent or hidden defects or non-conformity have been duly proven by the Customer, under the conditions stipulated in Articles L 217-3 et seq. of the French Consumer Code and those set forth in these General Terms and Conditions of Sale.
