2 – How Is the Contract Concluded?
2.1 How to Place an Order?
To purchase one or more products on the site, the Customer selects each product (including the product container, with the option not to take one, and then the fragrance) and adds it to their cart. Then, the Customer chooses the desired subscription plan. Once their selection is complete, they must click the "Proceed to Checkout" button to confirm their cart.
Then the Customer reviews their order and corrects it if necessary. The Customer must then definitively confirm the order (2nd click).
It is the Customer's responsibility to carefully read the T&C before validating the entire order.
This validation of the order after checking the cart and reading the T&C constitutes the conclusion of the contract, and the Customer acknowledges that the second mouse click results in an obligation to pay on their part.
The Customer is then redirected to the payment page. They can choose between the different payment methods offered and proceed with the payment of their order.
After validating their order and making the payment, the Customer receives a confirmation message from the Company at the email address they provided to create their account. This message contains:
a summary of their order (selected product(s) and subscription(s), prices, terms, and delivery costs);
precise identification of the Company and its activity;
the order number;
If the Customer does not receive the order confirmation, it is recommended to contact the Company via the contact form on the site or the email address hello@900.care.
If needed, an invoice will be issued by 900.care and sent to the Customer upon their request.
It is strongly advised for the Customer to keep this confirmation message as it can be used as evidence of the contract.
2.2 In What Cases Can the Company Refuse Order Validation?
The Company reserves the right to refuse your order for any legitimate reason, including but not limited to:
Order not in compliance with the T&C;
Non-payment of a previous order or an ongoing dispute concerning a previous order;
Suspected fraud on the order (supported by a combination of concordant evidence).

However, if the order contains other products than the one that became unavailable, those will be delivered to the Customer, and the shipping costs will not be refunded. Our delivery times range from 5 to 10 business days for Europe. In case of product unavailability on a recurring order, the company reserves the right to postpone the next delivery as well as the payment.

The Customer subscribes to a subscription to receive product refills on a regular basis. The frequency can then be modified from the customer area.

5 - Payment Process
The entire payment must be made at the time of ordering. At no time will the amounts paid be considered as down payments or installments. The Customer pays for their order by credit card (Visa, Eurocard/Mastercard) or through a payment service provider (Paypal).
For any transaction, the Customer will provide the number on the front of their card, the expiration date, and the cryptogram on the back of their credit card (last three digits).
The Customer's communication of their credit card number constitutes authorization for the Company to debit their account for the amount of their order.
The Company retains ownership of the item until the full payment of the price by the Customer.
