Any order entails an obligation to pay.

Once payment has been confirmed and duly completed, the customer will receive an email acknowledging that the order has been duly received. This order acknowledgement does not mean that his/her order has been accepted. the acceptance of customer order will be confirmed by sending to the customer an e-mail that confirms that the Products have been dispatched (“Order Confirmation”).

The Contract with customer for the purchase of Products will only be formed when the Order Confirmation is duly sent to customer.

Appropriate efforts to process and fulfil any order as quickly as possible. However, the order may be declined, upon notice to customer if: (a) the Product is unavailable (in which case, if the payment was processed, Global-e will refund to customer in accordance with this terms; (b) Global-e is unable to verify the payment information provided by the customer, (c) the order from a customer with whom it is in dispute over a previous order, or (d) if GIVENCHY reasonably believes that the customer has breached these Terms of Sale or has engaged in a fraudulent activity, or for any other legitimate reason.

Neither GIVENCHY nor Global-e are required to provide a reason for declining to accept any order, though it may be provided. Moreover, an order may be cancelled (in full or in part) even after the Order Confirmation was dispatched, if GIVENCHY or Global-e acting on its behalf suspect there could be, or actually were such circumstances (on our part or any third party’s part) giving rise to a good faith, genuine or honest error, mistake or misunderstanding pursuant to which Global-e acting on behalf of GIVENCHY would neither have sent the Order Confirmation nor agreed to sell the Products. An example could be a specious low price for a product otherwise costing significantly more. In the event of such genuine error, customer shall receive a properly detailed notice of cancellation, following which customer’s order will be automatically cancelled, and customer will be refunded the amounts customer actually paid.

The customer is advised to keep the acknowledgment of receipt and e-mail confirmation of the order on paper or electronically.

5. Prices – Tax – Delivery Cost – Import Charges and Accepted payment methods.

5.1 Prices

The prices of Products are stated in Local Currency where the order is placed and include any applicable sales taxes, plus any eventual international delivery costs and fees (“Delivery Costs”) and, if applicable and available for pre-payment, any eventual import duties, tariffs and similar fees that may be imposed by the delivery destination (“Import Charges”). Without advanced notice and from time to time, Delivery Costs and/or Import Charges could be covered, partially or fully. The Website will provide details about such offers before completing and placing the order.

5.2. Import Charges

For certain delivery destinations and/or Products, the customer may be offered the option to pre-pay applicable Import Charges, which will then be calculated and added or included in the final price when he/she place the order. In certain cases, the price of the Product may already be inclusive of Import Charges.

The customer may decide not pre-pay the Import Charges at Checkout, or the option to pre-pay Import Charges may not be available for its delivery destination or the Product. In such cases (i.e. where pre-pay does not apply): (i) the customer is advised that the amount of Import Chares displayed under the pre-pay option on the checkout may not reflect the actual Import Charges payable by him/her as determined by his/her delivery destination’s relevant authority, which may be more or less than such estimate: and (ii) the customer will be fully responsible for paying all applicable Import Charges directly to the relevant authority (and for reclaiming them in the event of a cancellation or a return of Products, to the extent permitted in these Terms) as determined by the authorities of the delivery destination, and neither Global-e nor GIVENCHY shall have any responsibility or liability in connection with the foregoing. Moreover, if customer fail to pay Import Charges without reasonable reason causing the liability to fall on GIVENCHY, Global-e or the carrier, the liability amount of Import Charges may be deducted from any refund or other amounts customer may claim, to the extent permitted under applicable law.

5.3. Accepted payment methods

The customer may pay with the payment methods specified at Checkout. The availability of such payment methods is dependent on his/her geographical location. The customer agrees to pay in full the prices and in advance for any purchases he/she make either by credit or debit card concurrent with his/her online order or by other payment means acceptable.

The customer acknowledge and agree that (i) he/she will be charged by Global-e or one of its third party payment processors (“Payment Processor”), through the payment method he/she have selected for his/her order and such other amounts payable under these Terms that may be due in connection with the order; (ii) he/she will provide valid and current information about himself/herself (iii) Givenchy and Global-e on its behalf may use the tools, software or services of Payment Processors to process transactions on their behalf; and (iv) he/she may be charged with additional fees (such as foreign transaction free or cross border fee) or charges imposed by his/her bank or credit/debit card issuer, and as these are not our charges or fees, GIVENCHY or Global-e have no control over such charges or fees nor do GIVENCHY or Global-e have any way to mitigate such charges or fees, as this is purely up to the relationship and commercial terms between the customer and customer bank or credit/debit card issuer, and GIVENCHY or Global-e also have no way of knowing in advance whether customer will be charged such charges or fees, as each bank and credit/debit issuer has its own policy, and GIVENCHY and Global-e commitment is to acquire the amount set at checkout in the customer local currency.

Depending on customer location, payment may be routed through Global-e’s affiliate (i.e. Global-e Australia Pty Ltd or Global-e NL B.V.).

If the payment method selected by the customer at checkout supports an authorization mechanism (e.g., most credit/debit cards), when the order is placed, only the applicable amount will be authorized. The customer will be charged only after the Product has been dispatched to him/her, unless the order is a “pre-order” or a similar type of order, in which case the charge could be made even before the Product has been dispatched, depending on the particulars of the pre-ordered Product. If the payment method that customer selected does not support an authorization mechanism, the charge will be immediate upon placing the order (or such other timing set by that specific payment method you used, if applicable). The customer will be charged the full order amount even if the order is dispatched in parts. Where PayPal/PayPal Express is offered as a payment method, the full amount of the purchase may be taken immediately following the placement of customer order. Pre-payment shall not affect customer legal rights under these Terms (including for example any right of refund).

Payment Invoice with Klarna: in certain jurisdictions only, you may be offered the opportunity to purchase goods using the solution “Klarna” as a payment method. The terms and conditions which will apply to payment by invoice with Klarna can be found here, nothing that German (not English) is the governing and binding language of such terms and conditions. Eligibility for use of the Klarna invoicing payment method will be determined by Klarna in their sole discretion and Global-e and GIVENCHY accept no liability in respect of your use of Klarna as a payment method. Where you choose to purchase the Product using payment by invoice with Klarna you will be sharing your personal data with Klarna end the terms of Klarna’s privacy policy shall apply to their use of your personal information.

Global-e on behalf of GIVENCHY will process customer’s payment for the Product. Global-e will take reasonable care to keep the details of customer’s order and payment secure however (in the absence of material negligence) Givenchy and Global-e cannot be held liable for any loss customer may suffer if a third party procures unauthorized access to any data you provide when accessing or ordering from the Website.

In accordance with regulations on personal data protection (French Law “Informatique et Libertés” n° 78-17 of January 6, 1978 amended by Law n° 2004-801 of August 6, 2004, the European General Data Protection Regulation of April 27, 2016, and French implementation law n°2018-493 of June 20, 2018 on the protection of personal data), the customer has the right to access, rectify, and oppose all his/her personal data at any time by writing, via mail and with proof of identity, to GIVENCHY - Customer Service - 159, avenue Charles de Gaulle, 92521 Neuilly-Sur-Seine cedex, France.

Risk of damage or loss to the Product passes to customer on delivery to him/her or to somebody identified by customer to carry or take possession of the Product on his/her behalf.

Customer will be considered the ‘importer of record’ of the Product, and Global-e (or someone on its behalf) will only be facilitating the importation on customer’s behalf as its agent. Customer is responsible for assuring that the Product can be lawfully imported to the destination, and customer therefore needs to comply with all applicable laws, regulations, certifications and rules of the destination into which customer imports the Product.

Please note that documentation such as product care and handling instructions may not be in the language of the customer’s destination; customer may not have available manufacturer’s or other service options for the Products or parts thereof; the Product (and accompanying materials) may not be designed in accordance with the standards of the destination to which it was ordered, product regulations, specifications or labelled in accordance with the requirements applicable in the destination or in customer or the destination language; in this regard, neither GIVENCHY, nor Global-e shall be held liable.

7. Terms of delivery

GIVENCHY do not charge customers for shipping and handling.

The customer acknowledges and agrees that Global-e or one of its third-party fulfilment services providers acting on its behalf, including GIVENCHY (each a “Fulfilment Provider”) may handle the delivery and fulfilment of his/her order, and that Global-e has sole discretion as to the Fulfilment Provider it chooses to use.

Not all Products can be delivered anywhere (due to limitation imposed on the Product or by the destination) but the Checkout will not permit customer to submit his/her order if the Product cannot be delivered to his/her specific address.

Delivery will be complete when the Product will be delivered to the address which the customer specifies when ordering (that may include the port of entrance to the destination as specified on the Checkout, in case the customer have selected not to pre-pay customs duties).

Different parts of the customer order may be delivered on different dates. Unless otherwise stated, and subject to applicable laws, delivery dates given on Checkout (or on the Website) are estimates only. The customer order will be fulfilled by the delivery date set out in the Order Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then within 30 days after the date of the Order Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances (pre-order for example). Delivery timeframes are affected by your delivery address. Global-e and GIVENCHY is unable to specify an exact delivery date and time.

GIVENCHY also offers the customer the option of purchasing a preview of selected products from its future collections. In this case, a special delivery time frame will be provided to the customer when placing the order. It should be noted that this time frame may be longer than thirty (30) days from the order.

Neither Global-e nor GIVENCHY has liability for any losses arising from delay in delivery to the extent that this is due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control and where neither Global-e nor GIVENCHY could have taken reasonable steps to deal with the delay.

If the customer receives notification of an unsuccessful attempted delivery, it is his/her responsibility to use the details provided to contact the delivery company to arrange re-delivery. If the customer has selected a delivery method that does not require a delivery to be signed for and nobody is available to receive the Product, Global-e reserve the right to leave them at the doorstep, hall or reception as available.

If the customer notices an anomaly on the package (damaged, opened, traces of liquid, etc.) he/she must, if possible, (i) refuse the package, or, if this is not possible, (ii) he/she must accept the delivery, not open the package, and, must imperatively keep the disputed package.

The customer must contact GIVENCHY as soon as possible, either by e-mail at contact@givenchy.com, or by phone at +33.1.44.31.19.52 (cost of a local call for Metropolitan France and cost of a standard international call to Metropolitan France for other countries).

The customer has a right to cancel his/her order subject to the provisions set our below. This right is not affected by any separate returns policy in these Terms.

The cancellation period will expire after 30 days after the day of delivery. If the customer has ordered several Products during one order, or the Products have been delivered in several stages, the cancellation period will not begin until he/she have physically taken possession of the last product or the last part of the delivery.

To exercise the right to cancel, the customer must inform GIVENCHY of his/her decision to cancel his/her order by a clear statement. Such statement can be made through the return process included in his/her parcel and under his link for all cross-border orders.

Personalized Products are considered as final sale and cannot be returned for exchange or refund.

The customer can’t cancel the order for the supply of sealed goods which are not suitable for return due to health protection or hygiene reasons, if they become unsealed after delivery.

The customer must return the Product delivered in a new and unused state, in perfect condition with all protective or other materials in place and tags and stickers attached to them (if applicable), as well as with the original box/container, including all accessories and documents. For footwear, the sole must also be intact: trying on shoes while standing on carpet or rugs is therefore highly recommended. Articles returned incomplete, worn, damages, deteriorated, dirtied or in any other state that could reasonably suggest that they have been used or worn will not be refunded.

Depending on customer geography, when payment was routed through Global-e Australia Pty Ltd. or Global-e NL B.V., Global-e’s affiliates, refund shall be made accordingly.

Title and risk of the returned Product will not be taken back or assumed until it physically arrives back to the returns facility.

Global-e will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as customer used for the initial transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise. In any event, the customer will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement. The customer must be aware that any supplementary costs arising of the fact that the customer chose a type of delivery other than the delivery offered by Givenchy and Global-e will not be refundable.

If the customer has paid Import Charges in connection with its order (either pre-paid at Checkout or paid upon receipt of the order directly to the applicable authority), customer acknowledge that (i) he must seek reimbursement directly form the applicable authority in his destination, (ii) it will be his/her sole responsibility to claim such Import Charges back from the applicable authority in his/her destination, and (iii) GIVENCHY and Global-e cannot guarantee that such claim will be successful.
