Any placing of an order by the Customer implies acceptance of the T&Cs and the fact of having full knowledge of them. The invalidity of a clause of these T&Cs does not in any way invalidate the other clauses. 

Fabio Bougies  may be required to modify and/or develop these T&Cs. In the event of modification, the T&Cs applicable to the Customer's order are those in force and accessible on the Site on the day the order is placed.

The GTC prevail over any conditions not expressly accepted by the Parties jointly.

ARTICLE 2 – ORDERS

(1) The Customer who wishes to place an order, connects and follows the steps indicated on the Site for placing an order, namely:

The order is recorded and the order number is communicated to the Customer. The sale will be considered final after sending the Customer this confirmation email summarizing the order placed. . 

Any order placed on the Site constitutes the formation of a contract concluded at a distance between the Customer and  FABIO BOUGIES
