2. Prices and currencies
All prices displayed on the Site are expressed in euros (€) or Swiss Francs (CHF), all taxes included (incl. VAT), in accordance with the regulations applicable to consumer sales.
The applicable VAT is the one in force in the delivery country on the date of the order. The prices shown do not include delivery charges, which are however free on all orders delivered to mainland France, Belgium, Switzerland and Luxembourg, as specified in the Site's Shipping Policy.
The Seller reserves the right to change its prices at any time. The applicable price is the one displayed on the Site at the time the Customer confirms the order.
3. Accepted payment methods
The Site accepts the following payment methods:
Payment in full:
- Credit card (Visa, Mastercard, American Express)

Deferred or instalment payment via PayPal:
PayPal may offer deferred or instalment payment options to its own customers according to its eligibility conditions. These options are managed exclusively by PayPal and independently of the Seller. For more information, see PayPal's terms and conditions at paypal.com/fr.
All payments are processed securely through the infrastructure of Shopify Payments and our payment partners. No banking data is stored on the Site's servers.
4. Payment security
All transactions carried out on the Site are secured via the SSL protocol (Secure Socket Layer) with TLS encryption. The Customer's banking data is transmitted directly to the payment providers (Shopify Payments, PayPal) and at no point passes through the Seller's servers.
The Site complies with the requirements of the PCI DSS standard (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) through its Shopify infrastructure.
The Seller may be required to implement additional verification procedures (strong authentication, 3D Secure) in accordance with the European PSD2 directive (Payment Services Directive 2), in order to prevent fraud and secure transactions.
5. Timing of the charge and start of manufacturing
The total order amount is charged at the moment the Customer confirms the order.
For made-to-measure curtain orders, manufacturing begins immediately upon payment confirmation. As a result, and in accordance with article L. 221-28, 3° of the French Consumer Code, no statutory right of withdrawal may be exercised after a made-to-measure order is confirmed, as the product is crafted to the Customer's personalised specifications.
For standard-size curtain orders, shipping takes place within 48 business hours following payment confirmation.
