Last revision: August 31, 2021

Article 1 – Purpose

SAS SEESTEMS has recognized expertise in selling photographic studios for cars, motorized turntables for cars, photographic booths for cars, and other accessories (image acquisition devices, computer equipment, electrical boxes), hereinafter referred to as "products." These general terms and conditions of sale define the respective rights and obligations of SEESTEMS and its clients regarding the sale of products.

Article 2 – General Provisions

2.1. These general terms and conditions of sale apply to all SEESTEMS product orders unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing between the parties before the order. Consequently, placing an order by a client implies their unconditional acceptance of these general terms and conditions of sale, which prevail over any other buyer’s document, including general purchasing conditions, unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing beforehand by SEESTEMS.

2.2. Any document other than these general terms and conditions of sale, such as catalogs, brochures, advertisements, and manuals, is purely informative and non-contractual.

Article 3 – Orders

3.1. Orders placed with SEESTEMS are firm and final for the buyer.

3.2. They may only be modified with SEESTEMS’s written consent and provided that the customer’s request for modification, made in writing, is received at least 3 days before the initially agreed delivery date.

Article 4 – Prices and Payment Terms

4.1. Prices are exclusive of taxes. They are provided as an indication and are subject to revision without notice.

4.2. Unless specific conditions are mentioned at the bottom of the invoice, payment must be made within 30 days from the end of the month in which the invoice was issued.

4.3. No discount will be granted by SEESTEMS for cash or early payment.

Article 5 – Delivery

5.1. SEESTEMS strives to deliver the ordered products within the estimated timeframe at the time of the order. However, delivery times are given for information purposes only. Exceeding these times cannot justify any penalty or compensation, nor motivate the cancellation or termination of the order.

5.2. Delivery is free of charge for orders above 420 euros (excluding tax).

5.3. If the delivered products do not conform to the specifications indicated in the order confirmation or have apparent defects, the client must make all necessary reservations with the carrier by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt within 3 days of delivery, with a copy sent simultaneously to SEESTEMS. If SEESTEMS directly handles the transport, any reservations must be mentioned on the delivery note, following a joint verification between the driver and the client. No claims will be accepted after the driver’s departure. Additionally, these reservations must be confirmed in writing by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt to SEESTEMS within 3 days of delivery.

5.4. Acceptance of the delivered products by the client, without reservations under the conditions specified in Article 5.2 above, covers all apparent defects and non-conformities.

5.5. Without prejudice to the provisions of Article 5.3 above, in the case of apparent defects or non-conformity, any claim regarding delivered products will only be accepted by SEESTEMS if it is made expressly, in writing, and sent by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt within 3 days from the delivery date.

Article 6 – Late Payment

6.1. Any sum not paid by the due date will automatically incur late payment penalties equal to three times the legal interest rate in effect, from the day following the payment due date on the invoice, without the need for a formal notice. These penalties apply without prejudice to SEESTEMS’s right to suspend the execution of any ongoing orders or to request the termination of the sale as stated in Article 7 below. Additionally, in accordance with legal provisions, a collection fee of €40 will be charged to the client for each late payment.

6.2. Late payment will also, at SEESTEMS’s discretion, result in the immediate enforceability of all amounts due.

6.3. In case of judicial recovery of unpaid amounts, a penalty clause of 20% of the unpaid sums will be applied, with a minimum of 200 euros (excluding tax).

Article 7 – Termination Clause

7.1. In the event of total or partial non-performance by the client of any of its obligations, particularly the non-payment of an invoice, SEESTEMS may decide to terminate the sale and cancel ongoing orders.

7.2. This termination will occur automatically 15 days after the sending of a formal notice by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt, which remains, in whole or in part, unfulfilled.

Article 8 – Retention of Ownership

8.1. Ownership of the products is suspended until full payment by the client, including principal and additional costs, even if payment terms have been granted.

Article 9 – Warranty

SEESTEMS guarantees the products against hidden defects under the conditions and limits of its suppliers’ warranties.

Article 10 – Force Majeure

10.1. Events beyond the parties’ control that were unforeseeable and unavoidable, making contract execution impossible, are considered force majeure.

Article 11 – Disputes

Any dispute related to the conclusion, interpretation, execution, or termination of this contract shall be submitted to the Commercial Court of LYON.
