The customer's general conditions of purchase cannot cancel all or part of these conditions which therefore remain, except for specific conditions expressly agreed between the parties, only valid and applicable in the relationship between the customer and our company.
The fact that one of the parties does not take advantage at a given time of any of these conditions cannot be interpreted as a waiver to take advantage of them later. The cancellation of a clause of these conditions will not affect the validity of the conditions as a whole.

ARTICLE 2 – ORDERS

2.1  The sales or services of our company may be the subject of an offer, an estimate or a contract (hereinafter referred to as "special conditions"). The special conditions issued by our company are valid for thirty (30) days from their issue. The benefit of the special conditions is strictly personal to the customer and cannot be transferred without the agreement of our company.

2.2 The customer's order is taken into account upon receipt of its voucher for the customer's agreement. This voucher for agreement may in particular consist in the return by the customer by email or by post of the special conditions duly signed and stamped or in the validation of his order on the website. Once the order has been sent to our company, no total or partial cancellation or quantitative or qualitative modification can be made without the written consent of our company. Such modifications could, in the event of express acceptance, lead to an adjustment of prices and execution times, in addition to compensation for any damage suffered by our company. In the event of cancellation, the compensation may not be less than the amount of the canceled products or services.

2.3 Our company reserves the right, as an independent company, to subcontract all or part of the customer's order.

ARTICLE 3 - PRODUCTS

3.1 Our company takes the greatest care in communicating information relating to the essential characteristics of products and services, in particular by means of technical descriptions from its partners and suppliers and photographs illustrating the products. The photographs taken on the Site are not contractual. In any event, our company cannot be held liable for any changes or errors concerning the description of the characteristics of the product purchased, unless, however, the essential characteristics of the product or service are affected.

Given the specificity of certain products marketed, our company draws the attention of Customers to its Site in particular with regard to their conditions of use, applicable regulations, authorizations, etc. in particular concerning the use of drones:

The use of a drone is subject to specific rules and legislation. Beyond the rules of common sense and respect for the safety of goods and people, as well as privacy, which prohibit the overflight of any public place, physical persons or animals, it is necessary to ensure that you have all authorizations, diplomas, insurance or approvals relating to the use of your equipment in accordance with the law. You can find all the information relating to these provisions in Order No. 386-15 of February 6, 2015 published in Official Bulletin No. 6337 of February 23, 2015, on the government website of the Ministry of Industry, Investment, Commerce and the Digital Economy.

Regarding the use of Lithium batteries: 
Lithium batteries must be used in special conditions and according to the manufacturer's recommendations. It is necessary to use a specific charger/balancer for Lithium batteries (Lithium-Polymer or Lithium-Ion). It is imperative never to charge a battery at more than 4.20V per cell (8.40V for a 2S, 12.60V for a 3S, 16.80V for a 4S, etc...). In the same way, a battery should never be excessively discharged, ie beyond 3.00V per element, under penalty of permanently damaging it, or worse, starting a fire. It is therefore essential, if you are using a device not equipped with a charge detection system (video transmitter/receiver type, return screen, glasses, LEDs, etc.), to monitor the discharge level of your battery. Finally, to be able to expect maximum life from your batteries, it is recommended to let them rest and/or cool down for about two hours after discharging before recharging them. Any battery that has been used outside of these recommendations, showing signs of shock, swollen cells, or replaced original connector, will not be covered by the warranty. It will be the same for any battery whose date of purchase will have exceeded 3 months (except for DJI batteries, for which the guarantee is extended to 6 months after the date of purchase or 200 charges).

The Customer is invited to read carefully and to scrupulously respect the notices systematically attached with the products sold. In the absence of notice, upon delivery, our company undertakes to communicate it to the Customer upon simple written request.
