Terms and Conditions of Sale and Use

These General Terms and Conditions of Sale (“Terms”) are intended to define the rights and obligations of the buyer and the seller for any order placed on this website and by telephone.

Reading and accepting these Terms is mandatory and a condition precedent to any order.

To this end, the buyer must have full legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

These Terms apply to any purchase made by an internet user / natural person or legal entity on the website https://discount-autosport.com

with Discount Autosport, registered with the Trade and Companies Register of Salon-de-Provence under Siren no. 982 416 703, whose registered office is at Route de Coudoux, 13410 Lambesc (France).

Preliminary Notices

a) Legal Notice and Purpose

This website is the intellectual and personal property of Alexandre Strano. It is published by Discount Autosport and hosted by Oyopi, a company registered with the Manosque Trade Register (04) – SIRET 528 253 131 00015 – NAF 6201Z – registered office: Campanelle – Pas de Bonnet – 04660 Champtercier – France.

The publication director and editor-in-chief of this website is Alexandre Strano.

b) Acceptance of the Terms

Subscribing to a contract governed by these Terms with the website’s publisher implies the user’s acceptance of these Terms. The user acknowledges having fully read and understood them. Acceptance consists of ticking the checkbox corresponding to the statement: “I accept the general terms and conditions of sale.”

Ticking this box shall be deemed equivalent to a handwritten signature by the user. The user acknowledges the evidential value of the website’s automatic recording systems and, unless he/she proves otherwise, waives the right to contest them in the event of a dispute.

Orders placed by telephone with oral payment by bank card between the customer and a Discount Autosport sales representative automatically constitute the customer’s acceptance of all of these Terms.

Acceptance of these Terms presupposes that users have the necessary legal capacity to do so, or failing that, the authorization of a guardian or curator if they are incapacitated, the authorization of their legal representative if they are minors, or a mandate if they act on behalf of a legal entity. These Terms also apply to any distance order placed by telephone and are deemed read and fully accepted in such case.

Order Subscription Methods and Purchase Process

Product availability is indicated on the site on each product page.

To place an order, users may select one or more items and add them to their cart. When their order is complete, they can access their cart by clicking the appropriate button.

In their cart, users can check the quantity and nature of the items they have chosen and review the unit price and total price of the order. They may remove one or more items from the cart.

If satisfied and wishing to confirm, users may click “confirm”; they will then access a form where they may either enter their login credentials if they already have an account, or create an account by completing the form with their personal information.

Once logged in or after completing the form, customers will be invited to check or modify their shipping and billing details, then proceed to payment, being redirected to the secure payment interface for bank cards and credit cards provided by STRIPE, Payplug, or PayPal.

Once payment is actually received by the site publisher, the latter undertakes to immediately acknowledge receipt to the customer by email. Within the same timeframe, the publisher undertakes to email the customer an order summary and processing confirmation, reiterating all information relating to the order, the products ordered, and their delivery.

Prices

Prices shown on the site are in Euros, all taxes included, excluding delivery charges. Prices may be changed at any time by the publisher; displayed prices are valid only on the day of the order and have no effect for the future. Discount Autosport reserves the right to cancel any order that used an invalid discount coupon or promotional code.

Delivery charges will be indicated to the customer before any payment.

Retention of Title

Goods sold remain the property of the seller until full payment of the price, in accordance with this retention-of-title clause. Risk passes to the buyer upon delivery.

Payment Information

Orders may be placed on this site and paid by bank card or PayPal.

Card payments are processed via secure transactions provided by Payplug. For card payments, the site publisher has no access to users’ payment data. Payment is made directly to the banking institution.

This offer is reserved for private individuals (adult natural persons) residing in France and holding a Visa or MasterCard with an expiry date later than the chosen financing term.

Cards with systematic authorization (e.g., Electron, Maestro, Nickel, etc.), e-cards, Indigo cards, and American Express are not accepted.

Subscription Process:

After completing your order, click the “3x 4x Oney payment by bank card” button. You will be redirected to our partner’s 3x 4x Oney webpage showing a detailed order summary and the personalized financing request, which you must validate.

You acknowledge that the “double-click” associated with the checkbox acknowledging the general terms constitutes consent to contract and an irrevocable, unconditional acceptance of the product’s terms.

Unless proven otherwise, the data recorded by Oney Bank constitutes proof of all transactions between you and Oney Bank.

If you request financing from Oney Bank, information relating to your order will be transmitted to Oney Bank, which will use it to assess your request and for the granting, administration, and recovery of the credit.

Oney Bank reserves the right to accept or refuse your request for 3x 4x Oney financing.

You have a 14-day withdrawal period to cancel your credit.

How It Works:

Payment in 3 or 4 instalments by card allows you to pay as follows: a mandatory down payment, debited on the day your order shipment is confirmed; then two or three monthly instalments, each corresponding to one third or one quarter of the order amount, debited at 30 and 60 days for 3-instalment plans and at 30, 60, and 90 days for 4-instalment plans. Fees apply: 1.61% of the total order amount for 3-instalment plans and 2.40% for 4-instalment plans (capped at €25 for 3x and €50 for 4x).

Payment in 3 instalments from €100 to €3,000. Example: For a €150 purchase, down payment €52.42 then 2 monthly instalments of €50. Credit duration: 2 months at a fixed APR of 21.63%. Financing cost: €2.42, capped at €25.

Delivery

a) Lead Time

Orders are delivered by DPD (home and pickup point) and Colissimo within the timeframe indicated at checkout, in business days, from the date the seller receives full payment.

Certain products or order volumes may justify a longer delivery time; this will be expressly indicated to the consumer upon order confirmation. Orders confirmed before 16:00 (CET/CEST) on Day D are processed on Day D. Orders confirmed after 16:00 are processed on Day D+1.

These dispatch and delivery timeframes apply only within mainland France. For any other destination, particularly outside the European Union, order preparation may take up to 3 working days.

Delivery times outside mainland France—and especially outside the EU—may be significantly extended by local customs and carriers, who may contact the customer in advance to complete formalities. The customer may not claim any delay in delivery in such circumstances and shall not be entitled to compensation or to cancel the order.

b) Delivery Error and Apparent Defect

The customer undertakes to check that the product delivered matches the order. Any delivery error compared with the order or any apparent defect must be reported within three full days from delivery. After this period, the product will be deemed accepted as compliant by the customer, who may no longer claim a delivery error or apparent defect.

c) Damage and Partial Loss

If a parcel is manifestly and visibly damaged upon delivery, the customer must refuse it to benefit from the carrier’s warranty. The customer must also inform the seller without delay so that a replacement parcel can be prepared and shipped upon receipt of the damaged parcel in return. In such cases, the delivery timeframes indicated above will no longer apply.

Likewise, the customer must refuse any incomplete parcel or one containing damaged items. In accordance with Article L133-3 of the French Commercial Code, receipt of transported goods extinguishes any claim against the carrier for damage or partial loss if, within three days (excluding public holidays) following receipt, the recipient has not notified the carrier of a reasoned protest by registered letter. Failing this, the customer cannot be compensated.

Product returns are accepted within 14 days; return shipping costs are borne by the merchant, and a return label is provided. Never return a product without our prior approval.

Provisions Relating to Consumer Rights

a) Customer Service

Customer service is available Monday to Friday, 9:00–12:00 and 14:00–17:00 (Paris time) at the non-premium number: +33 (0)7 56 82 94 56, or by email at contact@discount-autosport.com. The publisher undertakes to respond within one business day.

b) Right of Withdrawal

In accordance with applicable law, consumers have 14 days from the date of receipt of the parcel to request an exchange or refund. To exercise this right, they must contact Discount Autosport by email, via our contact form, or by telephone to receive instructions. Discount Autosport undertakes to issue the refund within 2 business days after receipt and inspection of the goods (a reduction may apply if the product is not returned in “as-new” condition for restocking).

All returns must be complete (packaging, manuals, accessories, copy of the invoice), and products must be in perfect resalable condition; they must not be soiled, damaged, or worn from use.

Any return or exchange must be pre-approved by Discount Autosport. The customer must contact Customer Service to obtain a return authorization and instructions, as well as the return address. Parcels presented without prior authorization will be refused.

d) Delay

Any delay exceeding seven days may result in cancellation of the sale at the consumer’s initiative, upon simple written request sent by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt. The consumer will then be reimbursed for sums paid with the order. This clause does not apply if the delay is due to force majeure beyond the publisher’s control, e.g., carrier damage, customs delays. In such cases, the customer agrees not to bring proceedings against the site or its publisher and waives the right to cancel as provided in this article.

Warranty for Products Purchased on This Site

In the event of a defect in a product purchased on this site, customers have, pursuant to the French Civil Code legal warranty against hidden defects, two years from discovering the defect to request an exchange or refund and, under Article L211-5 of the French Consumer Code, two years from receipt of the product to request an exchange or refund where the goods delivered are non-conforming within the meaning of that article. To exercise these rights, they must contact the publisher’s customer service and provide proof of the defect or non-conformity.

A hidden defect is a fault that, under normal use, renders the item unfit for its intended purpose. The conformity obligation means delivering the item as contractually agreed. The publisher is not responsible, in particular, for improper installation, normal wear and tear, poor maintenance, accidental damage, or abnormal use of the products.

Warranties and remedies apply only to items used by a professional body-shop technician or mechanic. Discount Autosport cannot be held liable for consequences related to installation of items delivered to the customer (e.g., labour costs, damage to peripherals, or other additional costs), even if items have defects or delivery errors.

Personal Account

a) Creating an Account

Creating a personal account is a prerequisite for any order on this site. The member will be asked to provide certain personal information and undertakes to provide accurate information, failing which the publisher may terminate the contract and delete the customer account.

Certain information is essential for contract conclusion; refusal to provide it prevents account creation and, consequently, order confirmation.

b) Account Features

This space allows the customer/member to view all orders placed on the site and, where applicable, to track shipment of purchased goods.

If the data in the personal account area is lost due to a fortuitous event, technical failure, or force majeure, the publisher cannot be held liable, as this information has no probative value and is purely informational. However, the publisher undertakes to securely retain all contractual elements required by law or regulation.

The publisher reserves the right to delete the account of any member who breaches these Terms (including, without limitation, knowingly providing false information during registration and account creation). Such deletion shall not constitute damage for the excluded member, who shall not be entitled to any compensation.

This exclusion is without prejudice to the publisher’s right to bring legal action when justified.

c) Password

When creating the personal account, a password will be assigned to the user, who may then change it. This password guarantees the confidentiality of information in the “My Account” section. The user must not disclose it to any third party. Otherwise, the site cannot be held responsible for unauthorized access to the user’s account.

Publisher’s Newsletter

By ticking the appropriate box or by expressly agreeing, members accept that the publisher may send them a newsletter, at a frequency and in a form determined by the publisher, which may include information about its activity.

When the user ticks the appropriate box, he/she agrees to receive commercial offers from the publisher for products and services similar to those ordered.

Subscribers can unsubscribe by clicking the link provided for this purpose in each newsletter.

Notices Relating to the French Data Protection Act of 6 January 1978

Users who do not wish to provide the data necessary to create an account will not be able to place orders.

Data collected is required for proper administration of the services offered on this site and to enable the publisher to fulfil its contractual obligations. This data is retained by the publisher solely for these purposes and will not be used otherwise, nor shared with third parties, except with the users’ express consent or as required by law.

Contact details of all registered users are stored for one year, a reasonable period for proper site administration and normal data use. This data is kept securely using current technological means, in compliance with the French Data Protection Act of 6 January 1978.

b) Right of Access, Rectification, and Objection

In accordance with this Act, users have the right to object to, query, access, and rectify their data. To exercise these rights, contact the publisher at: contact@discount-autosport.com, or by post at the publisher’s registered office indicated at the beginning of these Terms.

Personal data collected is processed by computer systems and used exclusively by the site publisher.

The data controller is Alexandre Strano, whose contact details are listed at the top of these Terms.

Personal data collected is not transferred abroad.

c) IP Address

The publisher reserves the right to collect the public IP address of all users. This IP address will be collected anonymously, stored for the same duration as personal data, and used solely to ensure proper administration of the services offered on this site. The IP address is a series of numbers separated by dots that uniquely identifies a computer on the internet.

The publisher must provide all personal data relating to a user to law enforcement (upon judicial requisition) or to any person (upon court order). Your computer’s IP address may be matched with the subscriber’s actual identity held by the ISP.

Cookies

a) General – Purpose – Duration

To allow optimal browsing and better operation of the interfaces and applications, the publisher may place a cookie on the user’s device. This cookie stores information relating to site navigation (date, pages, times) and any data entered during the visit (searches, login, email, password). These cookies may be stored on the user’s device for up to one month and may be read and used by the publisher during a subsequent visit.

b) Right to Object to Cookies

Users may block, modify the retention period of, or delete cookies via their browser settings (usually: Tools/Options → Privacy). In this case, browsing will not be optimized. If disabling cookies prevents access to certain services or features provided by the publisher, this malfunction shall not constitute damage and shall not give rise to compensation.

c) Deleting Cookies

Users may also delete cookies already stored on their computer via the relevant browser menu (usually: Tools/Options → Privacy). This does not affect browsing but removes cookie-based benefits. Users will then need to re-enter all their information.

Publisher’s Liability Exclusions Under this Contract

In case of website inaccessibility due to technical problems or any other reason, the customer may not claim damages or compensation.

The unavailability, even prolonged and without time limit, of one or more products cannot constitute a prejudice for users and cannot give rise to damages from the site or its publisher.

Products are marketed in compliance with the laws and regulations in force in France; the publisher cannot be held liable for non-compliance with regulations and laws in other countries.

The publisher cannot be held liable for non-performance of the contract directly or indirectly attributable to force majeure as defined by French courts.

The publisher is not liable for failures or malfunctions resulting from storage or use of equipment outside the normal conditions defined by manufacturers.

Likewise, the publisher is not liable for failures arising from the customer or a third party, including:

• Improper installation by an individual or professional

• Non-compliant use of products

• Connection, wiring, and electrical installation of luminaires in premises/buildings/dwellings/garages/outbuildings or movable/immovable property that do not comply with French and European electrical standards applicable to commercial and residential premises.

The seller disclaims all liability in the event of malfunction, ignition, short-circuit, or fire involving the sold product. The buyer accepts this limitation and exclusion of liability applicable solely to the seller. The seller is not obliged to carry out repairs demanded by the buyer. The buyer may not seek the seller’s liability under contractual, extra-contractual, or tort law.
The seller cannot be held liable under fault-based or no-fault liability.
The customer acknowledges that the site publisher is not the manufacturer of the products sold and therefore disclaims all liability under the defective products regime. Consequently, the customer agrees that in the event of damage to persons or property caused by a defective product, the seller is released from all statutory liability.
The seller’s liability cannot be engaged in the event of an act by a third party or force majeure.
These clauses do not deprive the contract of its essential obligation.

The publisher endeavours to display product images that are perfectly true to life, to meet its duty to inform. However, these visuals are not guaranteed and may include generic images or slight differences. Given current technology, the rendering—particularly colours or shape—may vary from one device to another or differ from reality depending on graphics hardware, screen, or resolution. Such variations cannot be attributed to the publisher, whose liability cannot be engaged.

Hyperlinks on this site may lead to other websites; the publisher’s liability cannot be engaged if the content of those sites breaches applicable legislation. Likewise, the publisher’s liability cannot be engaged if visiting such sites causes harm to the user.

Intellectual Property Rights in the Site Content

All elements comprising this website belong to the publisher and are protected by intellectual property law.

Users acknowledge that, absent authorization, any full or partial copy, distribution, or exploitation of one or more elements, even if modified, may give rise to legal action by the publisher or its successors.

This protection covers all textual and graphic content of the site, as well as its structure, name, logo, and visual identity.

Changes to the Terms

These Terms may be modified at any time by the site publisher or its agent. The applicable Terms are those in force on the day of the user’s order or connection. The publisher undertakes to retain all previous versions and to provide them to any user upon request.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by French law and subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the French courts. The language of the contract is French.

Amicable Dispute Resolution

Unless mandatory provisions apply, any dispute arising in connection with the performance of these Terms may, prior to any legal action, be submitted to the publisher for amicable resolution. Requests for amicable resolution do not suspend limitation periods for bringing legal action.

Severability

If any clause of these Terms is declared null and void by a court, such nullity shall not entail nullity of the remaining clauses, which shall continue in full force and effect.

No Waiver

The fact that the publisher does not rely, temporarily or permanently, on one or more clauses of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of the right to rely on the remainder of the Terms.

Special Provisions for Professional Buyers

In accordance with applicable European legislation, orders between professionals are firm and final. The right of withdrawal is reserved for consumers; therefore, orders between professionals cannot be cancelled, refunded, exchanged, or returned (except in cases of manifest defect in delivered products, exchange under warranty, or prior agreement with Discount Autosport). Discount Autosport reserves the right to close any professional account, without notice, in cases of pricing abuse, late payment, or non-payment.
