CosyHome will then send a request for further details by means of a "Discovery Form" in order to obtain the specific terms and conditions of the ORDERS booked. This form must be returned no later than seven (7) calendar days before the planned date of the ORDER.

A written summary of the ORDERS made will be provided to the CLIENT before the provision of the SERVICES and, at the latest, on the day of arrival in the accommodation.

The CUSTOMER is informed that the late return of the "Concierge Form" or the "Discovery Sheet" will not guarantee the fulfilment of all the requests made.

An estimate will be provided prior to any confirmation for ORDERS concerning: station or airport transfers, babysitting, wellness services, reservation of household staff. These SERVICES will be subject to written confirmation from the CUSTOMER.

4.3 adding an order

It will be possible to place other ORDERS during the stay by contacting the CosyHome agency directly by telephone, e-mail or WhatsApp.

In order to be taken into consideration by CosyHome, any new ORDER request by the CUSTOMER must be made at least the day before the delivery of the product or the provision of the service. CosyHome is only bound by an obligation of means and may not be held responsible in the event of the PROVISION being impossible.

5. Availability of PRODUCTS and SERVICES

The placing of an ORDER is limited to the availability of the PRODUCT and the SERVICE with the SERVICE SUPPLIERS and at the resort hosting the CLIENT.

CosyHome undertakes to inform the CUSTOMER of any unavailability as soon as possible.

6. Conditions applicable to all orders

All ORDERS will only become final once they have been confirmed in writing by CosyHome by electronic means (e-mail and/or WhatsApp).

In order to confirm the booking of certain SERVICES with the PROVIDERS, CosyHome will ask the CUSTOMER to communicate his/her bank card number verbally to the person in charge.

7. MODIFYING AND CANCELLING AN ORDER

In order to be taken into consideration by CosyHome, any request for modification or cancellation by the CLIENT of an ORDER confirmed by the SERVICE SUPPLIER must be made at least three (3) calendar days before the date of DELIVERY of the PRODUCT or provision of the SERVICE.

CosyHome may refuse any request for modification or cancellation made by the CLIENT after this period.

It is specified that any request for modification or cancellation nevertheless remains subject to the SERVICE SUPPLIER's general terms and conditions of sale or service. If the latter do not allow the ORDER to be reimbursed, the payment will remain due by the CLIENT and the sums already paid will not be refunded under any circumstances.

8. EXECUTION OF THE ORDER

Depending on the arrangements proposed, on the date and at the time of the SERVICE booked, the CUSTOMER will go to the place where the SERVICE is to be performed or to the meeting point.

The SERVICE will be performed in accordance with the CUSTOMER'S ORDER and in compliance with the regulations in force.

The placing of an ORDER with CosyHome by the CUSTOMER in no way implies that the SERVICE is performed directly by CosyHome.

Despite all the care taken by CosyHome, the latter only acts as an intermediary or agent in the relationship between the CLIENT and the SERVICE SUPPLIER.

The SERVICE SUPPLIER executing the ORDER retains total independence in the issue and execution of its ORDER. It must perform all acts required by its professional obligations and, where applicable, necessary to comply with its professional ethics.

CosyHome accepts no liability for the performance of the sales or service contract.

CosyHome will also not be held responsible for damage or prejudice of any nature whatsoever caused by the PROVIDER, including delays in delivery/fulfilment or non-conformity of a service.

Delays in completion do not entail cancellation or modification of the ORDER.

9. PRICE AND PAYMENT OF THE ORDER

Prices for all PRODUCTS and SERVICES are quoted in Swiss francs, inclusive of all taxes.

In particular, prices include value added tax (VAT) at the rate in force on the date of the order. Any change in the applicable rate may have an impact on the price of PRODUCTS and SERVICES from the date on which the new rate comes into force.

In principle, the PRODUCTS and SERVICES ordered as part of the CONCIERGE SERVICE must be paid solely and directly to the SERVICE SUPPLIER concerned.

Exceptionally, when the reservation needs to be confirmed, or the ORDER needs to be paid in advance, CosyHome will do this using the CLIENT's credit card details. This information will be communicated orally to CosyHome by the CLIENT at the time of payment of the ORDER or confirmation of the booking with the SERVICE SUPPLIER.

By providing their bank card number, the CUSTOMER authorises CosyHome to pay the total amount of the ORDER.

All necessary measures will then be taken to guarantee the security and confidentiality of the data transmitted as part of the payment for PRODUCTS and/or SERVICES.

10. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

10.1 Right of withdrawal when subscribing to the CONCIERGERIE PASS :

The CUSTOMER has a period of 14 days from the date of subscription to one of the CONCIERGERIE PASSES to exercise their right of withdrawal.

To do so, they must send an e-mail to the agency where they are staying.

CosyHome will not be able to take into account any oral request for retraction.

In the event of withdrawal by the CUSTOMER, CosyHome undertakes to refund, within thirty (30) calendar days, the amount paid corresponding to the price of the PASS purchased.

However, this right of withdrawal may no longer be exercised once the CUSTOMER has returned the discovery sheet and CosyHome has taken the necessary steps to meet the CUSTOMER's requests and needs.

10.2. Right to cancel an ORDER :

The CUSTOMER is informed that CosyHome acts only as an intermediary in the purchase of PRODUCTS and the booking of a SERVICE.

CosyHome undertakes to support the CLIENT in its dealings with the SERVICE SUPPLIER.

11. LIABILITY AND INSURANCE

The CUSTOMER expressly acknowledges that, in providing its CONCIERAGE SERVICES, CosyHome is only bound by an obligation of means.

Apart from its liability as an intermediary, CosyHome cannot be held liable for any dispute relating to the quality of PRODUCTS or SERVICES (including compliance with deadlines or specifications) delivered or performed by a PROVIDER.

Requests of any kind (complaints, reservations or disputes, including problems of guarantee or non-conformity) relating to PRODUCTS or SERVICES ordered within the framework of the mandate given to CosyHome, must be sent directly by the CLIENT to the SERVICE SUPPLIER concerned, without CosyHome being held liable. CosyHome may nevertheless forward to the SERVICE SUPPLIER concerned any letters of complaint sent by the CLIENT.

CosyHome's liability will be limited to direct material damage caused by a fault on its part proven by the CUSTOMER.

All objects or personal effects belonging to the CLIENT are the CLIENT's own responsibility.

The services offered through the CONCIERGERIE PASS do not include any insurance. It is the CLIENT's responsibility to check that the prices of the PRODUCTS and SERVICES offered by the PROVIDERS include insurance.

12. FORCE MAJEURE

CosyHome cannot be held responsible, or considered to have failed in its contractual obligations, for any delay or non-performance when the cause of the delay or non-performance is linked to a case of force majeure.

Force majeure in contractual matters occurs when an event beyond the debtor's control, which could not reasonably have been foreseen when the contract was concluded and the effects of which cannot be avoided by appropriate measures, prevents the debtor from performing his obligation.

If the impediment is temporary, performance of the obligation is suspended unless the resulting delay justifies termination of the contract. If the impediment is definitive, the contract is terminated by operation of law and the parties are released from their obligations in accordance with the provisions of the Swiss Code of Obligations.

In this respect, CosyHome may not be held liable, in particular in the event of an attack by computer hackers, unavailability of materials, supplies, spare parts, personal or other equipment, interruption, suspension, reduction or disruption of electricity or other, or any interruption of electronic communications networks, as well as in the event of any circumstance or event outside the control of CosyHome occurring after the conclusion of the contract and preventing performance under normal conditions.

It is specified that, in such a situation, the CUSTOMER may not claim the payment of any compensation and may not bring any action against CosyHome.

In the event of the occurrence of one of the aforementioned events, CosyHome will endeavour to inform the CUSTOMER as soon as possible.
