General terms and conditions of sale - HORSE SPIRIT
Article 1: Purpose
The present terms and conditions of sale aim to define the contractual relationship between Equinotex Groupe SAS and the Client, as well as the conditions applicable to any purchase made via the Horse Spirit website. The purchase of a product through the Horse Spirit website implies the Client's unreserved acceptance of these general terms and conditions of sale, which prevail over all other existing conditions and may be modified at any time without prior notice. However, any modifications are not attributable to products purchased prior to their implementation. In the event that one of the stipulations of these general terms and conditions of sale is considered null and void due to a change in regulations, legislation or a final court decision, the other stipulations shall remain valid and shall retain their full scope. It is specified that the Horse Spirit website is intended for consumers only and that any professional should contact the Horse Spirit sales department (contact@horse-spirit.fr) to benefit from specific contractual conditions.
Article 2: Product characteristics
The products presented on the Horse Spirit website are offered within the limits of available stocks. Each product is described in detail according to the information provided by the supplier. The information relating to the size and weight of the products is given as an indication (the units of measurement inch and ounce are approximately transposed into units of cm and gram). The photographs in the catalogue are intended to be as accurate as possible, but cannot ensure a perfect similarity with the product offered, particularly with regard to colours and shades. As such, all visuals proposed by the Horse Spirit website are non-contractual.
