Clause 1: Purpose

The general terms and conditions of sale described below detail the rights and obligations of TECHNOPAST SAS and the BUYER, in the context of the purchase and sale of goods. Any service performed by TECHNOPAST SAS implies the buyer's unreserved acceptance of these general terms and conditions of sale.

Clause 2: Prices

The prices of the goods sold are those in effect on the day the order is placed. They are denominated in euros and calculated excluding taxes. Consequently, they will be increased by the applicable VAT rate and transport costs calculated on the day of the order. TECHNOPAST SAS reserves the right to modify its prices at any time. However, it undertakes, except in cases of force majeure, to invoice the goods ordered at the prices indicated at the time the order is registered.

Clause 3: Rebates and Discounts

The proposed rates include any exceptional discounts that TECHNOPAST SAS may grant based on the volume of the order or other specific conditions.

Clause 4: Cash Discounts

No discount will be granted for early payment.

Clause 5: Payment Methods

Payment for orders is made exclusively by bank transfer, either directly from the buyer's account or through a banking institution acting on their behalf (leasing or irrevocable Letter of Credit confirmed by a French bank).

Upon registration of the order, the buyer must pay a down payment of 40% of the invoice amount. The balance shall be paid upon receipt of the email notifying that the goods are ready for shipment. Any payment of the down payment implies full and complete acceptance of these General Terms and Conditions of Sale.

Clause 6: Late Payment

In the event of total or partial non-payment of the goods delivered by the due date, the buyer must pay TECHNOPAST SAS a late penalty equal to three times the legal interest rate. In addition, a fixed indemnity of 40 euros will be due for recovery costs.

Clause 7: Termination Clause

If, within fifteen days following the implementation of the "Late Payment" clause, the buyer has not paid the outstanding amounts, the sale will be terminated automatically and may entitle TECHNOPAST SAS to damages.

Clause 8: Retention of Title Clause

TECHNOPAST SAS retains ownership of the goods sold until full payment of the price, including principal and accessories. In this regard, in the event of receivership or judicial liquidation, TECHNOPAST SAS reserves the right to claim unpaid goods.

Clause 9: Delivery

Delivery is made to the location indicated on the order form. The transport risk is fully borne by the buyer. In the event of missing or damaged goods, the buyer must make all necessary reservations on the order form upon receipt and confirm them in writing within five days of delivery by registered mail with acknowledgement of receipt.

Installation, commissioning, and training are not the responsibility of TECHNOPAST SAS, unless specifically described and invoiced on the order form.

Clause 13: Force Majeure

The liability of TECHNOPAST SAS cannot be engaged if the non-performance or delay results from a case of force majeure.
