APPENDIX
PROVISIONS RELATING TO LEGAL WARRANTIES APPLICABLE TO CONSUMER CUSTOMERS
1 For Services comprising digital elements
In accordance with the legal provisions in force relating to the conformity of the Services to the General Terms and Conditions, GoTombola is liable for any defects of conformitý appearing on the Services acquired by the Customer under the following conditions.
The consumer has a period of two years from the delivery of the good to obtain the implementation of the legal guarantee of conformitý in the event of the appearance of a defect of conformitý. During this period, the consumer is only required to establish the existence of the defect of conformitý and not the date of its appearance.
Where the contract for the sale of goods provides for the supply of digital content or a digital service on a continuous basis for a period of more than two years, the legal warranty applies to this digital content or digital service throughout the period of supply. During this period, the consumer is only required to establish the existence of the lack of conformity affecting the digital content or digital service, and not the date of its appearance.
The legal warranty of conformitý entails the obligation for the professional, where applicable, to provide all updates necessary to maintain the conformitý of the good.
The legal warranty of conformity gives the consumer the right to repair or replace the good within thirty days of his request, free of charge and without any major inconvenience for him. If the good is repaired under the legal warranty of conformity, the consumer benefits from a six-month extension of the initial warranty.
If the consumer asks for the good to be repaired, but the seller requires it to be replaced, the legal warranty of conformity is renewed for a period of two years from the date of replacement of the good.
The consumer may obtain a reduction in the purchase price by keeping the goods, or terminate the contract by obtaining a full refund against return of the goods, if:
(a) The trader refuses to repair or replace the goods;
(b) The goods are repaired or replaced after a period of thirty days;
(c) The repair or replacement of the good causes a major inconvenience for the consumer, in particular where the consumer definitively bears the cost of taking back or removing the non-conforming good, or if he bears the cost of installing the repaired́ or replacement good ;
(d) The non-conformitý of the good persists despite the seller's attempt to bring it into conformitý having remained unsuccessful.
The consumer is also entitled to a reduction in the price of the goods or to rescission of the contract when the lack of conformitý is so serious that it justifies immediate reduction in the price or rescission of the contract. In such cases, the consumer is not obliged to request repair or replacement of the good beforehand.
The consumer is not entitled to have the sale rescinded if the lack of conformity is minor.
Any period of immobilization of the good with a view to its repair or replacement suspends the warranty which remained in force until the delivery of the reconditioned good.
The rights mentioned above result from the application of articles L. 217-1 to L. 217-32 of the French Consumer Code. Any seller who obstructs in bad faith the implementation of the legal warranty of conformitý is liable to a civil fine of up to 300,000 euros, which may be increased to 10% of average annual sales (article L. 241-5 of the French Consumer Code).
Consumers are also covered by the legal warranty for hidden defects under articles 1641 to 1649 of the French Civil Code, for a period of two years from the discovery of the defect. This warranty entitles the consumer to a price reduction if the good is kept, or to a full refund in exchange for the return of the good.
The Services must be returned to GoTombola in the condition in which they were received with all elements (accessories, instructions...) in packaging that allows for transport in good conditions.
In this case, shipping costs will be reimbursed to the Customer on the basis of the invoiced rate and return shipping costs will be covered by GoTombola.
Reimbursement will be made by re-crediting the payment method used for the order.
Cash on delivery will not be accepted for any reason whatsoever. These guarantees are without prejudice to the applicable right of withdrawal.
2 For digital content and services
The following provisions apply solely to digital content and services not covered by specific conditions.
(a) Where the contract provides for a one-off supply of the digital content or digital service, or a series of separate supply operations:
The consumer has a period of two years from the date of supply of the digital content or digital service in which to invoke the legal warranty of conformity in the event of a lack of conformity. During a period of one year from the date of supply, the consumer is only required to establish the existence of the lack of conformity, and not the date of its appearance.
The legal warranty of conformity includes the obligation to provide all updates necessary to maintain the conformity of the digital content or service.
The legal warranty of conformity entitles the consumer to have the digital content or service brought into conformity without undue delay following his or her request, at no cost and with no major inconvenience to him or her.
The consumer may obtain a price reduction by retaining the digital content or service, or he may terminate the contract by obtaining a full refund in return for relinquishing the digital content or service, if :
(a) The professional refuses to bring the digital content or service into compliance;
(b) The compliance of the digital content or service is unjustifiably delayed;
(c) The digital content or digital service cannot be brought into conformity without imposing costs on the consumer;
(d) Bringing the digital content or service into conformity causes major inconvenience to the consumer;
(e) the non-conformity of the digital content or service persists despite the trader's unsuccessful attempt to bring it into conformity.
The consumer is also entitled to a reduction in price or rescission of the contract where the lack of conformity is so serious as to justify immediate reduction in price or rescission of the contract. In such cases, the consumer is not obliged to ask for the digital content or service to be brought into conformity beforehand.
In cases where the lack of conformity is minor, the consumer is entitled to cancel the contract only if the contract does not provide for payment of a price.
Any period of unavailability of the digital content or service for the purpose of bringing it back into conformity suspends the remaining warranty period until the digital content or service has been supplied in conformity again. The rights mentioned above result from the application of articles L. 224-25-1 to L. 224-25-31 of the French Consumer Code.
Any professional who obstructs the implementation of the legal guarantee of conformity in bad faith is liable to a civil fine of up to 300,000 euros, which may be increased to 10% of average annual sales (article L. 242-18-1 of the French Consumer Code).
Consumers also benefit from the legal warranty for hidden defects under articles 1641 to 1649 of the French Civil Code, for a period of two years from the discovery of the defect. This warranty entitles the consumer to a price reduction if the digital content or service is retained, or to a full refund in exchange for renouncing the digital content or service.
(b) Where the contract provides for the digital content or digital service to be supplied on an ongoing basis:
Consumers are entitled to invoke the legal warranty of conformity if a lack of conformity appears within 12 months of the digital content or service being supplied.
During this period, the consumer is only required to establish the existence of the lack of conformity, and not the date of its appearance.
The legal warranty of conformity includes the obligation to provide all updates necessary to maintain the conformity of the digital content or service for a period of 12 months.
The legal warranty of conformity entitles the consumer to have the digital content or service brought into conformity without undue delay following his or her request, at no cost and with no major inconvenience to him or her.
The consumer may obtain a price reduction by retaining the digital content or digital service, or he may terminate the contract by obtaining a full refund against relinquishment of the digital content or digital service, if:
(a) The professional refuses to bring the digital content or service into compliance;
(b) The compliance of the digital content or service is unjustifiably delayed;
(c) The digital content or digital service cannot be brought into conformity without imposing costs on the consumer;
(d) Bringing the digital content or service into conformity causes major inconvenience to the consumer;
(e) the non-conformity of the digital content or service persists despite the trader's unsuccessful attempt to bring it into conformity.
The consumer is also entitled to a reduction in price or rescission of the contract where the lack of conformity is so serious as to justify immediate reduction in price or rescission of the contract. In such cases, the consumer is not obliged to ask for the digital content or service to be brought into conformity beforehand.
In cases where the lack of conformity is minor, the consumer is entitled to cancel the contract only if the contract does not provide for payment of a price.
Any period of unavailability of the digital content or service for the purpose of bringing it back into conformity suspends the remaining warranty period until such time as the digital content or service is once again brought into conformity.
These rights result from the application of articles L. 224-25-1 to L. 224-25-31 of the French Consumer Code.
Any professional who obstructs the implementation of the legal guarantee of conformity in bad faith is liable to a civil fine of up to 300,000 euros, which may be increased to 10% of average annual sales (article L. 242-18-1 of the French Consumer Code).
Consumers are also covered by the legal warranty for hidden defects under articles 1641 to 1649 of the French Civil Code, for a period of two years from the discovery of the defect. This warranty entitles the consumer to a price reduction if the digital content or service is retained, or to a full refund in exchange for renunciation of the digital content or service.
