Article 4 - Participation in an E-GIFT CARD

The INITIATOR has the option to ask others to access an E-GIFT CARD that is not yet finalized, in other words when the GIFT VOUCHER have not been issued. For this purpose, the INITIATOR is provided with a link that can be shared with others via his/her e-mail service or any other means of his/her choice. The INITIATOR assumes responsibility for the diffusion of this link.

Any visitor who accesses the contribution page of an E-GIFT CARD via the shared link has the right to participate in an E-GIFT CARD by making a financial contribution via the available means of payment.

When the visitor accesses the contribution page of the E-GIFT CARD, the name of the INITIATOR and that of the BENECIFIARY will be clearly displayed. Any PARTICIPANT is assumed to know the INITIATOR and the BENEFICIARY.

Before contributing to an E-GIFT CARD, it is the responsibility of the visitor to ascertain the authenticity of the request from the INITIATOR. In case of doubt, the visitor is obliged to verify this directly with the INITIATOR. ARMISTICE will not be held responsible for an error on the part of the PARTICIPANT.

Article 5 - Issuance and transmission of a E-GIFT CARD

Once the E-GIFT CARD is finalized, it is issued in the form of a GIFT VOUCHER and sent by e-mail to the INITIATOR. If he/she has selected the “send by e-mail” option, the BENEFICIARY will also receive the GIFT VOUCHER at the e-mail address provided by the INITIATOR.

The GIFT VOUCHER may not be received in the following cases:

  1. The spam filter of the messaging service has blocked the attachment or redirects the message into “SPAM” or “unwanted mail” folder.
  2. The firewall has blocked the message or the attachment.
  3. The inbox of the messaging service is full.
  4. The e-mail address is invalid.

Article 6 - Transmission of the E-GIFT CARD to a BENEFICIARY

When an E-GIFT CARD is purchased, the transfer of ownership from ARMISTICE to the INITIATOR is effected upon issuance of the GIFT VOUCHER. The INITIATOR assumes complete responsibility for ceding and transmitting the GIFT VOUCHER to a BENEFICIARY, the third party of his/her choice, including when the INITIATOR selects the option “send to the beneficiary by e-mail”.

Use of the E-GIFT CARD as payment is based on the use of a code printed on the GIFT VOUCHER. The INITIATOR must keep the code and the GIFT VOUCHER secret. ARMISTICE may not be held responsible in cases of an error on the part of the BENEFICIARY, loss of or fraudulent use of the code. Similarly, once the INITIATOR transfers the E-GIFT CARD to a BENEFICIARY, the latter is acknowledged to have accepted the transfer of rights and the General Conditions of the E-GIFT CARD specified in the supporting documentation.

Article 7 - Validity of the E-GIFT CARD

The E-GIFT CARD is valid for twelve (12) months from the date of purchase.

At the end of the validity period, the E-GIFT CARD can no longer be used. The remaining balance on the E-GIFT CARD will then be lost. The E-GIFT CARD will not be renewed or exchanged.

Article 8 - Use of the E-GIFT CARD

The E-GIFT CARD can only be used by a natural person of legal age.

It can be used on the website www.armistice.fr.

The E-GIFT CARD is not a credit card. It can be used as a means of payment, in one or more instalments, during its period of validity, only to pay for a purchase placed only in euros on the www.armistice.fr website and within the limit of its loading.

If the balance on the E-GIFT CARD is not sufficient to cover the amount of the order, the RECIPIENT may supplement it by any other means of payment.

To find out the balance of the E-GIFT CARD, the RECIPIENT can go to the Gift Card space on the Website or contact ARMISTICE Customer Service.

In case of return of all or part of the order paid in whole or in part with the E-GIFT CARD, the refund will be made on the E-GIFT CARD which will be automatically recredited with the amount of the returned article, within the limit of the sum initially paid by this same means of payment. It is important that the RECIPIENT keeps the E-GIFT CARD (received by e-mail containing the code) during the withdrawal period. If the validity period of the E-GIFT CARD has expired at the time of reimbursement, the reimbursement will be made in the form of a voucher valid on products sold and shipped by ARMISTICE.

The E-GIFT CARD may not be exchanged, transferred, or resold, and may not give rise to any monetary consideration.

In the event of difficulty in using the E-GIFT CARD (particularly if it does not work), the RECIPIENT must contact ARMISTICE's Customer Service.

Article 9 - Loss and theft of the E-GIFT CARD

The RECIPIENT is responsible for the E-GIFT CARD that he/she purchases. He/she agrees to take all measures to ensure the security and confidentiality of the E-GIFT CARD. ARMISTICE will not be held responsible in case of loss of the media with its code, or fraudulent use of this code.

The lost or stolen E-GIFT CARD can nevertheless be the subject of a request for putting in opposition, provided that the E-GIFT CARD is still valid.

The sums already used before the setting in opposition could not be the subject of a refunding.

In the event that the electronic medium of the GIFT VOUCHER is lost, the RECIPIENT must contact the INITIATOR to obtain a new electronic copy. If the INITIATOR has lost the electronic medium, the INITIATOR may receive an electronic copy by making a request via the contact link in the footer of the SITE. In this case, the electronic copy will be sent to the INITIATOR's e-mail address originally used for the purchase. In no case, it is possible to obtain a reissue of the GIFT VOUCHER, i.e. a new code.

Article 10 – Cancellation and reimbursement of an E-GIFT CARD

GIFT VOUCHERS cannot be refunded, resold, transferred as compensation or exchanged for cash.

Article 11 – Claims

The transactions recorded by the computer systems of ARMISTICE are valid proof of the transactions actually carried out by means of the E-GIFT CARD.

In case of dispute of the balance of the E-GIFT CARD following its use, the RECIPIENT may address a claim to the Customer Service of ARMISTICE.

Article 12 – Guarantee limits

ARMISTICE cannot guarantee the uninterrupted operation of the service and may not be held responsible for cases of unavailability, suspension or malfunction of the service, in particular during times of maintenance and updates and when problems with the Internet network occur.
