Version of 13 August 2026

Article 1 — Subject Matter and Scope of Application

These general terms and conditions of sale ("B2B Terms and Conditions") govern sales of products concluded by MOHAWK'S with any buyer acting for purposes falling within the scope of their professional activity ("the Buyer"). They exclude sales to consumers and non-professionals, which are governed by separate terms.

They constitute the sole basis of commercial negotiation within the meaning of Article L. 441-1 of the Commercial Code. Special conditions, quotes, framework agreements, or written commercial arrangements may derogate from them. In the event of a conflict, the particular document accepted by both parties shall prevail for its subject matter.

The Terms and Conditions are communicated on a durable medium to any professional buyer who requests them. MOHAWK'S may establish differentiated terms and conditions by category of buyer in accordance with the law.

Article 2 — Contractual Documents and Enforceability

The contract comprises, in descending order of priority: the special conditions or accepted quote, the order confirmation issued by MOHAWK'S, these Terms and Conditions, and then the pricing and logistics annexes in force communicated to the Buyer.

The Buyer's general purchasing conditions are only enforceable against MOHAWK'S in the event of express, prior, and written acceptance. The fact that MOHAWK'S does not invoke a particular clause on a given occasion shall not constitute a waiver for the future.

Article 3 — Products, Information, and Conformity

The essential characteristics, references, compatibilities, and conditions of use are set out in the product sheets, catalogues, or offers. Photographs are for illustrative purposes; only the specifications expressly confirmed in the order are contractually binding.

The Buyer, as a knowledgeable professional, shall verify before placing an order that the product is suitable for the intended use, that technical compatibilities, applicable local standards are met, and, in the case of export, the conditions for import and use in the country of destination.

Notices, safety warnings, and assembly instructions provided with the products must be passed on without alteration to the end user. The Buyer shall cooperate with any safety measure, product recall, or withdrawal.

Article 4 — Orders

Every order constitutes a firm offer by the Buyer. It is only binding on MOHAWK'S after written confirmation, acceptance of the quotation or commencement of performance. MOHAWK'S may refuse or defer an order in the event of outstanding payment, credit limit exceeded, insufficient information, risk of fraud or unavailability of the product.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the minimum order value is set at €50 excluding VAT. For certain frames, particularly in specific sizes or configurations, a deposit of up to 20% may be required; the amount and terms thereof shall be specified prior to confirmation.

Any modification or cancellation requested by the Buyer must be accepted in writing. For personalised, configured, specially ordered, or already-in-production products, MOHAWK'S may refuse cancellation or charge for costs that have been irrevocably incurred.

Article 5 — Prices, Taxes, and Discounts

Prices are those set out in the applicable price list for the Buyer's category or in the quotation in force at the date of the order. They are expressed exclusive of taxes, shipping, insurance, duties and ancillary charges, unless otherwise stated. VAT and other levies are invoiced at the applicable statutory rate.

Prices may not be modified after order confirmation, except by amendment accepted by both parties or under an expressly provided revision mechanism. Any applicable price reductions, discounts, rebates and early payment terms are set out in the commercial annex or special conditions communicated with these Terms and Conditions.

Shipping Costs

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the following shipping costs shall apply:

Metropolitan France:

  • order with a value below €300 excl. VAT: €12 excl. VAT in transport charges;
  • order of an amount equal to or greater than €300 excl. VAT: free shipping.

European Union, excluding metropolitan France:

  • order of an amount less than €300 excl. VAT: €15 excl. VAT in shipping costs;
  • order of an amount equal to or greater than €300 excl. VAT: free shipping.

Bicycles and frames:

Orders for bicycles or frames are subject to specific shipping costs, applicable per unit and regardless of the total order amount:

  • Metropolitan France: €30 excl. VAT per bicycle or frame;
  • European Union excluding metropolitan France: €35 excl. VAT per bicycle or frame.

Orders for bicycles or frames are not eligible for free delivery.

French Overseas Territories and other countries:

Shipping costs are established on a quote basis, in particular depending on the destination, volume, weight and shipping method.

Any customs duties, import taxes, customs clearance costs, or other charges applicable in the country of destination remain the responsibility of the Buyer, unless otherwise agreed in writing

For international transactions, duties, taxes, formalities and excluded costs remain the Buyer's responsibility in accordance with the agreed Incoterm.

Article 6 — Invoicing and Payment

Unless otherwise specified in the special conditions, invoices are payable by bank transfer, credit card, or commercial instrument accepted by MOHAWK'S, in euros, within thirty net days from their date of issue. No discount is granted for early payment, unless expressly stated on the quote or invoice.

Any complaint relating to an invoice must be substantiated and submitted within ten days of receipt. It does not suspend payment of the undisputed amounts.

6.1 Late Payment

Any sum not paid by the due date shall automatically, and without prior notice, incur late payment penalties calculated at the most recent refinancing rate of the European Central Bank plus ten percentage points. This rate may in no circumstances be lower than three times the statutory interest rate.

A flat-rate indemnity of €40 for debt collection costs is automatically due for each invoice paid late, in accordance with Articles L. 441-10 and D. 441-5 of the Commercial Code. Where the debt collection costs incurred exceed this amount, MOHAWK'S may seek additional compensation upon production of supporting evidence.

Late payment may result, after notification, in the suspension of current deliveries and obligations, the reduction or withdrawal of payment facilities, as well as the immediate enforceability of all sums due or to become due, without prejudice to other remedies.

6.2 No Set-Off

Unless MOHAWK'S expressly agrees or the legal conditions for set-off are met, the Buyer may not unilaterally deduct from an invoice any penalty, retention, or alleged claim, in particular on account of a delivery delay or non-conformity.

Article 7 — Delivery

The announced date or timeframe is specified in the order confirmation. Unless expressly stated as a firm commitment, it constitutes an estimate. MOHAWK'S shall inform the Buyer of any known significant delay and shall seek a reasonable solution.

Partial deliveries are permitted where they do not cause disproportionate prejudice. Back-orders below the minimum logistics threshold may be consolidated, invoiced with the corresponding transport costs, or cancelled after informing the Buyer.

Failure to deliver attributable to MOHAWK'S gives rise to the remedies provided under ordinary law and the contract. No clause shall deprive the Buyer of their right to compensation in the event of proven fault on the part of MOHAWK'S.

The Customer is required to check, upon receipt, the quantity, references, and apparent condition of the delivered products. Any complaint relating to a missing item, an incorrect reference, or an apparent defect detectable during a normal inspection must be addressed to the Seller in writing — including by email — within ten (10) calendar days from the day after receipt. The complaint must specify the order concerned, the nature of the anomaly, and be accompanied by available supporting documentation.

Failing a claim within this period, the products shall be deemed accepted in respect of the sole elements capable of being verified under the above conditions, and no claim relating to such apparent anomalies shall be admissible, subject to any applicable mandatory statutory provisions.

Article 8 — Transport, Reservations, and Transfer of Risk

Unless a contrary Incoterm or special condition applies, the risk of loss or damage is transferred to the Buyer upon handover of the products to the first carrier. MOHAWK'S remains responsible for preparing and packaging the products in accordance with professional standards.

Upon receipt, the Buyer shall immediately check the number of parcels, their apparent condition, and the conformity of the references. Any damage or partial loss must be noted with precise reservations on the delivery receipt and a reasoned complaint must be lodged with the carrier within three days, excluding public holidays, in accordance with Article L. 133-3 of the Commercial Code. A copy shall be sent to MOHAWK'S without delay. International transport remains subject to applicable conventions, in particular the CMR where relevant.

The absence of transport reservations does not preclude a separate claim for non-conformity or a defect not detectable upon receipt, under the conditions set out in Article 11.

Article 9 — Retention of Title

MOHAWK'S retains ownership of the products until full payment of the price, principal and ancillary costs, has been received. Payment is understood to mean the actual receipt of funds. The Buyer shall keep the products identifiable, separated, and insured until full payment has been received, and shall immediately inform MOHAWK'S of any seizure or claim by a third party.

In the event of non-payment, MOHAWK'S may claim and recover the unpaid products under the statutory conditions. Deposits already paid shall be applied against justified costs and losses, subject to the court's discretion. This clause does not affect the transfer of risk provided for in Article 8.

Article 10 — Commercial Returns

No return for convenience may take place without prior written agreement and a return number. The agreement shall specify the references, quantities, required condition, address, transport, timeframe, any discount, and handling charges. Maximum return period for a product: 60 days. 

Products must be complete, clean, unassembled, unused, in their original intact packaging, and accompanied by proof of purchase. Personalised, obsolete, damaged, or discontinued products may be excluded. These rules do not limit the rights applicable in the event of non-conformity or hidden defects.

Article 11 — Claims, Warranties and After-Sales Service

Apparent defects or quantitative non-conformities must be reported in writing, with supporting evidence, within five working days of receipt, without prejudice to the transport deadline set out in Article 8. Non-apparent defects must be reported within a reasonable period after their discovery.

MOHAWK'S is liable for applicable statutory guarantees, in particular the guarantee against hidden defects under Articles 1641 to 1649 of the Civil Code. Manufacturers' commercial warranties are in addition to the statutory guarantees and do not replace them; their duration, scope, and exclusions are those set out in the warranty document provided with the product.

Any after-sales service request shall be sent to sales@mohawks.eu or via the B2B portal, together with the invoice, reference, serial number, precise description, photographs, and, if requested, a return number. No product shall be dispatched before instructions have been given. If the defect is covered, MOHAWK'S shall arrange for the appropriate repair, replacement, credit note, or refund. If the request is not covered, a quote shall be submitted prior to any work being carried out and any accepted costs shall remain the responsibility of the Buyer.

Article 12 — Liability

Each party is liable for the direct and foreseeable damages resulting from its proven breaches. Except in cases of gross or wilful misconduct, personal injury, infringement of intellectual property rights, liability for defective products or any other liability that cannot be limited, MOHAWK'S total liability is limited to the net amount paid in respect of the order giving rise to the damage.

MOHAWK'S shall not be liable for indirect losses such as loss of margin, customers, reputation, data, or business, except where compensation is required by a mandatory rule. MOHAWK'S shall not be liable for improper assembly, unauthorised modification, use contrary to the instructions, failure to maintain the product, or an incompatibility that the professional Buyer was required to verify.

Article 13 — Force Majeure

Neither party shall be liable for a failure caused by an event meeting the conditions of Article 1218 of the Civil Code. The party affected shall notify the other without delay, substantiate the event and limit its effects. The affected obligations are suspended for the duration of the impediment.

If the permanent impediment or its duration makes it unreasonable to maintain the contract, either party may cancel the affected order following written notice. A stock shortage, a cost increase, or a supplier failure does not, in itself, constitute a case of force majeure unless the legal conditions are met.

Article 14 — Personal Data

MOHAWK'S processes the data of professional contacts in order to manage accounts, orders, deliveries, payments, guarantees, complaints, legal obligations, and commercial relationships. The legal bases are the performance of the contract, legal obligations, and the legitimate interests of managing and developing the business relationship.

Data subjects have, under the applicable legal conditions, rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection and portability, as well as the right to lodge a complaint with the CNIL. The detailed arrangements and retention periods are set out in the site's privacy policy.

Article 15 — Intellectual Property and Resale

Trademarks, visuals, texts, catalogues, technical data and other content remain the property of their respective owners. No rights are transferred beyond those strictly necessary for the presentation and authorised resale of the products, in compliance with brand guidelines and third-party rights.

The Buyer remains free to determine their resale prices in compliance with competition law. Any recommended retail prices that may be communicated are purely advisory.

Article 16 — Suspension and Termination

In the event of a sufficiently serious breach, the aggrieved party may give the other party formal notice to remedy it within a reasonable period. Failing rectification, the aggrieved party may suspend the performance of its obligations or cancel the relevant order, in accordance with the Civil Code, without prejudice to any damages that may be due.

Clauses intended to survive the end of the contract, including payment, retention of title, liability, confidentiality, intellectual property and dispute resolution, shall remain applicable.

Article 17 — Applicable Law and Disputes

The Terms and Conditions and the sales they govern are subject to French law, subject to any applicable mandatory international conventions.

The parties shall first seek an amicable solution. Any complaint shall be addressed to sales@mohawks.eu with the relevant supporting documents. They may also have recourse to business mediation when the conditions for doing so are met.

JURISDICTION CLAUSE — BETWEEN TRADERS ONLY

ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN PARTIES WHO HAVE BOTH CONTRACTED IN THEIR CAPACITY AS TRADERS SHALL FALL WITHIN THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE PONTOISE COMMERCIAL COURT, INCLUDING IN CASES OF INTERIM PROCEEDINGS, THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS, OR MULTIPLE DEFENDANTS. THIS CLAUSE SHALL NOT APPLY WHERE A MANDATORY RULE PROVIDES OTHERWISE.

Article 18 — Final Provisions

If a provision is declared null and void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in force. The parties shall replace, if necessary, the affected provision with a valid clause having as close an economic effect as possible.

The Buyer acknowledges having received these Terms and Conditions and their annexes prior to placing the order and accepts them. Proof of acceptance may take the form of a signature, electronic validation, a reference on the order, or any other reliable means.

Annexes to the B2B Terms and Conditions:

Article 2 — Scope and Acceptance

The B2C Terms and Conditions govern sales of goods concluded with any natural person acting for purposes that do not fall within the scope of their commercial, industrial, craft, professional or agricultural activity, as well as with non-professionals benefiting from the applicable mandatory provisions.

They apply to sales concluded on the website, at a distance, or in store when they are provided prior to ordering. The consumer may download and retain them. Validation of the order after reviewing the order summary constitutes acceptance of the Terms and Conditions in force on that date.

Any condition that would reduce a mandatory consumer right shall be deemed unwritten. Offers may include special conditions that prevail for their subject matter where they are more favourable or have been expressly accepted.

Article 3 — Pre-contractual Information and Products

Prior to ordering, the consumer shall receive, in a legible manner, the essential characteristics of the product, its total price, any additional charges, the payment and delivery terms, the delivery date or timeframe, the existence of statutory guarantees, after-sales service, the right of withdrawal and its exceptions, as well as the dispute resolution procedures.

Photographs and colours are presented with the greatest care but may vary depending on the screen. The descriptions, dimensions, compatibilities, materials, options, and accessories expressly indicated on the product page and the order summary have contractual value.

The consumer must comply with the instructions, safety warnings, torque settings, usage limits, and assembly and maintenance requirements. In the event of any doubt regarding the compatibility or installation of a safety component, it is recommended to consult a qualified professional before use.

Article 4 — Prices and Charges

Prices are displayed in euros inclusive of all taxes. Delivery costs, options, duties or other additional charges are indicated before final confirmation. The price invoiced is the one accepted at the time of the order; it may not be increased after the contract has been concluded, unless the consumer requests a modification.

Promotions and free delivery thresholds apply for the duration and under the conditions announced. In the event of a manifest pricing error that the consumer could not reasonably have overlooked, MOHAWK'S shall inform the consumer prior to dispatch and offer them the option to confirm the order at the correct price or to cancel it with a full refund.

Article 5 — Order and Formation of the Contract

The consumer selects the products, checks the basket, enters the required information, chooses the delivery and payment method, and then accesses a summary allowing them to correct any error. The final button clearly indicates that placing the order entails an obligation to pay.

MOHAWK'S acknowledges receipt of the order by electronic means on a durable medium. The contract is formed when MOHAWK'S confirms acceptance of the order. The invoice and the applicable terms and conditions are made available or sent electronically.

MOHAWK'S may refuse an order on legitimate grounds, including suspected fraud, a previous payment incident, manifestly incorrect information, an abnormal quantity or unavailability. The consumer is informed accordingly and any sum collected in respect of the refused order is refunded.

Article 6 — Availability

Availability information is updated as accurately as possible. If a product becomes unavailable after the order is placed, MOHAWK'S shall inform the consumer without delay. The consumer may accept a new delivery timeframe or a proposed replacement product; failing this, the relevant order shall be cancelled and refunded within no more than fourteen days.

No replacement product shall be sent without the consumer's prior agreement.

Article 7 — Payment

Payment is made by the methods offered at the time of ordering. The price is due in accordance with the payment schedule displayed, generally in full at the time of ordering. In the case of instalment payment offered by a service provider, its terms and conditions are communicated prior to subscription.

Payment data is processed by secure service providers. MOHAWK'S does not retain full credit card details, except where a legally authorised and expressly accepted arrangement applies. In the event of a payment failure or refusal, the order may not be confirmed.

Article 8 — Delivery

The delivery area, method, cost, and date or timeframe are indicated prior to ordering. In the absence of an agreed date, MOHAWK'S shall deliver without undue delay and no later than thirty days after conclusion of the contract.

In the event of a delay, the consumer may suspend payment under the conditions provided by law, give MOHAWK'S formal notice to deliver within a reasonable additional period, and then cancel the contract if delivery does not take place. The consumer may cancel immediately if MOHAWK'S refuses to deliver or if the agreed date was an essential condition. Reimbursement shall take place within fourteen days following cancellation.

The consumer checks the condition of the parcel and may make precise reservations with the carrier. The absence of reservations does not deprive the consumer of the statutory guarantee of conformity. Where the carrier has not allowed the consumer to effectively check the condition of the goods, the time limit for lodging a complaint with the carrier is extended to ten days.

The Customer is invited to check, upon receipt, the quantity, references, and apparent condition of the delivered products. In order to facilitate the processing of their request, the Customer is invited to notify the Seller in writing — including by email — of any missing item, incorrect reference, or apparent damage within ten (10) calendar days from the day after receipt, specifying the order concerned and attaching, where possible, any relevant supporting documentation.

This period constitutes a recommended reporting timeframe and not a forfeiture deadline. Failure to report within this period or to make reservations upon receipt does not deprive the Customer of their rights under the statutory warranties, in particular the statutory warranty of conformity and the warranty against hidden defects, nor of their other statutory rights.

Article 9 — Transfer of Risk and Retention of Title

The risk of loss or damage is transferred to the consumer when they physically take possession of the goods, or when a third party designated by them takes possession. If the consumer themselves chooses a carrier that was not offered by MOHAWK'S, the risk is transferred upon handover of the goods to that carrier.

MOHAWK'S retains ownership of the products until full payment of the price has been received. This retention of title clause does not affect the mandatory rules governing the transfer of risk.

Article 10 — Right of Withdrawal

For a sale concluded at a distance, the consumer has fourteen days to withdraw without having to give reasons. For goods, the period runs from the date of their receipt by the consumer or the third party designated by them; specific rules apply to multiple orders delivered separately.

The decision is notified before the expiry of the period by means of the attached form or any unambiguous statement, by post to MOHAWK'S, 19 avenue Roland Moreno, ZAC des Épineaux, 95740 Frépillon, or by e-mail to sales@mohawks.eu. For orders concluded via an online interface, a free, easy, direct and permanent withdrawal function must be accessible at the location indicated on the site; an acknowledgement of receipt is sent without delay on a durable medium.

10.1 Return Following Withdrawal

The consumer returns the goods no later than fourteen days after having communicated their decision, to the address and in accordance with the instructions provided by MOHAWK'S. The direct costs of return remain the consumer's responsibility, unless MOHAWK'S agrees to bear them or failed to inform the consumer before the order. For goods that cannot normally be returned by post, the estimated cost of return is communicated before the order.

The consumer may handle the goods as they would in a shop in order to establish their nature, characteristics and proper functioning. Their liability may only be incurred in the event of depreciation resulting from handling beyond what is necessary. It is recommended to use appropriate protective packaging and a tracked shipping method.

10.2 Refund

MOHAWK'S shall refund all payments received, including standard delivery charges, no later than fourteen days after being informed of the withdrawal. The refund may be deferred until the goods have been recovered or proof of dispatch has been received, whichever is the earlier. The same payment method shall be used, unless the consumer expressly agrees otherwise and without any charge to the consumer. The additional cost of a delivery method more expensive than standard delivery shall not be refunded.

10.3 Exceptions

The right of withdrawal does not apply, in particular, to goods made to the consumer's specifications or clearly personalised, to unsealed goods that cannot be returned for reasons of hygiene or health protection, or to goods that, after delivery, have been inseparably mixed with other items. Any exception is indicated prior to ordering and shall be interpreted strictly. The mere choice of a standard size, colour, or option does not automatically make the goods personalised.

Article 11 — Statutory Warranty of Conformity

MOHAWK'S, acting as seller, is directly responsible for the statutory warranty of conformity. The consumer does not need to contact the manufacturer to invoke it. Repair or replacement is carried out free of charge, including any necessary costs of shipping, collection, labour and reinstallation, under the statutory conditions.

MANDATORY BOX — STATUTORY WARRANTIES

The consumer has a period of two years from the delivery of the goods to invoke the statutory guarantee of conformity in the event of a conformity defect appearing. During this period, the consumer is only required to establish the existence of the conformity defect and not the date on which it appeared.

Where the contract of sale of the goods provides for the supply of digital content or a digital service on a continuous basis for a period exceeding two years, the statutory guarantee shall apply to that digital content or digital service throughout the entire supply period. During this period, the consumer is only required to establish the existence of the conformity defect affecting the digital content or digital service and not the date on which it appeared.

The statutory guarantee of conformity entails an obligation for the trader, where applicable, to provide all updates necessary to maintain the conformity of the goods.

The statutory guarantee of conformity entitles the consumer to repair or replacement of the goods within thirty days of their request, free of charge and without major inconvenience to them.

If the goods are repaired under the statutory guarantee of conformity, the consumer shall benefit from a six-month extension to the original guarantee.

If the consumer requests repair of the goods but the seller imposes replacement instead, the statutory guarantee of conformity shall be renewed for a period of two years from the date of replacement of the goods.

The consumer may obtain a reduction in the purchase price whilst retaining the goods, or terminate the contract and receive a full refund upon return of the goods, if:

1° The trader refuses to repair or replace the goods;

2° The repair or replacement of the goods takes place after a period of thirty days;

3° The repair or replacement of the goods causes a major inconvenience to the consumer, in particular where the consumer permanently bears the costs of recovery or collection of the non-conforming goods, or bears the costs of installation of the repaired or replacement goods;

4° The non-conformity of the goods persists despite the seller's unsuccessful attempt to bring them into conformity.

The consumer is also entitled to a reduction in the price of the goods or to cancellation of the contract where the lack of conformity is so serious as to justify an immediate price reduction or cancellation. In such a case, the consumer is not required to first request repair or replacement of the goods.

The consumer is not entitled to cancel the sale if the conformity defect is minor.

Any period during which the goods are immobilised for the purpose of repair or replacement shall suspend the remaining guarantee period until the repaired goods have been delivered.

The rights mentioned above derive from the application of Articles L. 217-1 to L. 217-32 of the Consumer Code.

A seller who in bad faith obstructs the implementation of the statutory warranty of conformity is liable to a civil fine of up to €300,000, which may be increased to 10% of average annual turnover (Article L. 241-5 of the Consumer Code).

The consumer also benefits from the statutory guarantee against hidden defects under Articles 1641 to 1649 of the Civil Code, for a period of two years from the discovery of the defect. This guarantee entitles the consumer to a price reduction if the goods are retained, or to a full refund upon return of the goods.

Article 12 — Implementation of Warranties and After-Sales Service

The request should be sent to sales@mohawks.eu or to MOHAWK'S, 19 avenue Roland Moreno, ZAC des Épineaux, 95740 Frépillon, with proof of purchase, the reference, serial number, a description and, where possible, photographs. The absence of the original packaging is not sufficient to dismiss a statutory warranty claim. Here is the link to the form: https://mohawks.eu/content/52-sav

MOHAWK'S shall indicate without delay the arrangements for handling the matter. No charges may be imposed for statutory remediation. If the diagnosis reveals that the fault results from a cause not covered, including misuse, accident, improper assembly or normal wear without an initial defect, no paid work shall be undertaken without a prior quote and agreement.

The manufacturer's or MOHAWK'S commercial warranties are in addition to the statutory warranties. Their terms, duration, territorial scope and exclusions are provided on a durable medium. They never limit the statutory warranties.

Article 13 — Liability and Safety

MOHAWK'S is liable for the proper performance of the contract and for responsibilities that cannot be excluded, in particular with regard to conformity, hidden defects, personal injury, and defective products.

MOHAWK'S cannot be held liable for damage exclusively attributable to the consumer, to an unforeseeable and insurmountable third party, or to a case of force majeure. Improper use, assembly contrary to instructions, unauthorised modification, or failure to maintain the product may exclude liability only where these are the cause of the damage or defect invoked.

The consumer must immediately cease using a product that presents a risk, follow any recall instructions and contact MOHAWK'S. No provision herein limits the mandatory rights attached to product safety.

Article 14 — Force Majeure

Performance may be suspended where an event meets the conditions of Article 1218 of the Civil Code. MOHAWK'S shall inform the consumer of the event, its foreseeable effects, and available solutions. If the impediment is permanent or if the delay legally permits cancellation, any sums due in respect of the unperformed service shall be refunded.

Article 15 — Personal Data

MOHAWK'S is responsible for the processing necessary for the management of the account, the order, payment, delivery, after-sales service, guarantees, complaints, fraud prevention, and its legal obligations. The legal bases are the performance of the contract, legal obligations, legitimate interests, and, where required, consent.

Data is accessible to authorised departments and necessary service providers, such as those responsible for payment, hosting, transport, support, and accounting, within the limits of their remit. Data is retained for the necessary periods and the statutory limitation periods. Any transfers outside the European Economic Area are governed in accordance with the GDPR.

The consumer has, under the applicable legal conditions, rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, portability and withdrawal of consent. They may set out post-mortem directives and contact the CNIL. The arrangements, contact address and detailed retention periods are set out in the privacy policy accessible on the site.

Article 16 — Intellectual Property

Trademarks, photographs, videos, texts, graphics, databases, technical data sheets and other site elements are protected. Any unauthorised reproduction or use is prohibited, subject to statutory exceptions and the rights of the relevant rights holders.

Article 17 — Complaints and Mediation

Any complaint should be addressed in the first instance to sales@mohawks.eu or by post to the registered office, with the order number and relevant supporting documents. MOHAWK'S endeavours to provide a response within a reasonable timeframe.

After a prior written complaint that has not resulted in a satisfactory resolution, the consumer may free of charge refer the matter to the consumer mediator to whose jurisdiction MOHAWK'S is subject, under the conditions set out in Articles L. 612-1 et seq. of the Consumer Code.

FIELD TO BE COMPLETED — CONSUMER MEDIATOR

Name of the listed mediator: [TO BE COMPLETED]

Postal address: [TO BE COMPLETED]

Website and online referral: [TO BE COMPLETED]

Article 18 — Applicable Law and Jurisdiction

The Terms and Conditions are governed by French law. This choice does not deprive a consumer residing in another European Union Member State of the more protective mandatory provisions of their country of residence where these are applicable.

In the absence of an amicable agreement or mediation, the consumer may refer the matter to the competent courts in accordance with ordinary law rules, in particular those of the place where the consumer resided at the time of conclusion of the contract or the occurrence of the harmful event. No exclusive jurisdiction of the Pontoise Commercial Court may be imposed upon the consumer.

Article 19 — Final Provisions

The invalidity of one provision does not affect the other clauses. The headings facilitate reading and do not limit the scope of statutory rights. The applicable Terms and Conditions are archived with the order on a durable medium.

MOHAWK'S may amend the Terms and Conditions for the future. Amendments do not apply retroactively to orders already concluded, unless required by mandatory law or by an express agreement more favourable to the consumer.

Annex — Standard Withdrawal Form

To be completed and returned only if you wish to withdraw from an order concluded at a distance.
