The use of the word "we" in the following is dedicated to SwissFashionDG and its members.
Visiting any part of this site, whether for the purpose of purchasing a clothing accessory or for the purpose of simply browsing, signifies acceptance of these Terms and Conditions of Sale. They apply to all visitors to this site, regardless of their origin, and their intentions towards the site.
We invite you to read these Terms of Sale before accessing our website. No access to or use of any part, tool or information available on this website shall be made without first reading these Terms of Sale.
New features, information or products added to this site will be subject to these Terms of Sale in the same way as information currently available.
Our shop is hosted by greeNative.ch who created this online shopping platform, allowing us to offer you the wide range of clothing items available on this site.
Article 1: Conditions of use
By these terms and conditions of sale and use, you agree to our methods of operation, and you identify yourself as a person of legal age, giving permission to any other natural person of legal age under your charge, to use this web page.
The purchase of our products for illegal reasons or purposes, whether permitted or not, is prohibited within our jurisdiction or yours.
Article 2: General Terms and Conditions of Sale
The following general terms and conditions of sale govern the rights and obligations of both parties to the contract in connection with the online sale of SwissFashionDG products.
We, SwissFashionDG, the seller subject to this contract, have the right to change these terms and conditions. The applicable conditions are those in effect at the time (date or other time indication) of the customer's purchase validation constituting the second part of this sales contract.
We ensure that the customer's acceptance of these rules and conditions of sale is fully verified and takes place in full consideration of all elements of the contract. You have a checkbox, which clearly indicates that you have voluntarily accepted the terms and conditions of sale governing the relationship between seller and customer on this site. You then declare that you are fully aware of the general terms and conditions of sale, when you first visit the site, or when you make your first purchase.
You acknowledge that you have received all the information or advice required to ensure that the services of SwissFashionDG meet your needs.
You affirm that you are able and entitled to enter into a legal contract in accordance with the laws in force in Europe.
Otherwise, the information recorded about you will constitute our evidence of your visit to our site.
Article 3: Prices and terms of price reduction
The prices of the products at SwissFashionDG are quoted in Euros (EUR), Dollars (USD) and Swiss Francs (CHF) excluding VAT.
For products shipped outside the European Union, customs duties, local taxes, import duties or state taxes may be required. All of these charges outside of the order will of course be borne by the buyer (you) and it is your responsibility to ensure that they are paid. We therefore invite you to take note of this information from the relevant authorities. The costs of accessing the site from the internet are also at your expense, and we reserve the right to change the prices of our products at any time, without necessarily notifying you.
When a discount is applied to a product, the final price of the product is obtained by subtracting from the base price the product of the price and the percentage discount. For example, let's take a handbag with a price of P, which has a discount of 55 %. The discounted price (Pr) is obtained by taking the base price P, minus the base price P multiplied by 55 %. In other words, Pr = P - (Px55/100).
Article 4: Conclusion of the online contract
In accordance with article 1127-1 of the Civil Code and the provisions of the laws of the aforementioned code, a series of steps must be followed in order to finally reach your objective on this site: the purchase of a branded clothing accessory.
The steps include: taking information about the product (weight, dimensions, colour, usefulness, etc.), selecting the product to proceed with the purchase, choosing the options (size, colour and others), adding to the shopping cart, indicating the email for information about the progress of the order, accepting the Terms and Conditions of Privacy and Sale, and launching the order, followed by the card payment process with the entry of the card information or identifiers for payments by electronic means such as PayPal. Before confirming your order, you can check the information entered, in order to modify it in case of probable errors. The validation of your order confirms the contract between SwissFashionDG and you (a contract between seller and buyer). You will then receive an email confirmation of the validation of your order, and other useful additional information to know about the product, the order, and its delivery.
The delivery is made to the address that you will have indicated during the validation of the order, and not any other address. In order to ensure that all stages of the order process, from the choice of product to delivery, are carried out correctly, you undertake to provide us with truthful information about your identity, your bank details and, in particular, the delivery address for the product.

Before any purchase, you are informed of the conditions of sale in force in accordance with article L. 112-1. The price of the product taken into account at the time of the order is the one in force at the time you place your order. A change in price will not affect the price of your order if you have paid for it before the said price change. Delivery is free of charge in more countries throughout Europe, and delivery times are between 4 and 8 days.
The information relating to the sales contract before validation is indicated in 3 languages: French, English and German. You can thus consult the different pages of the company's website in these 3 languages if your browser does not have a translation tool.
By validating your shopping cart, you acknowledge that you have received details of delivery charges and the means available for payment, as well as precise data regarding our identity, postal address, telephone and e-mail addresses, and the part of the sales contract that you have to fulfil. We undertake to meet your needs through the orders you place with us (within the limits of available stock). In the case of a stock shortage, it will be easy to notice the impossibility to order. You can then send us an email to let us know that you are interested in the product and we will notify you by email when it is available for delivery again.
