Article 4: PRESENTATION OF PRODUCTS 

KITSUNE attempts to presents the Products on the website in order to be as accurate as possible in the description of the Products. However, we cannot guarantee that any descriptions (such as colour, pattern and texture, etc.) are totally accurate, complete, reliable or error-free. The detailing  you see on-screen will depend on your monitor and, as such, may not exactly reflect the actual detailing of a Product when you receive it. The images of the Products on the Website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we attempt to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that your computer's display of the colours accurately reflects the colour of the Products. Whilst we have taken reasonable steps to depict Products as accurately as possible through the photographs and other images featured on the Site, the detailing (such as colour, pattern and texture, etc.) you see on-screen will depend on your monitor and, as such, may not exactly reflect the actual detailing of a Product when you receive it. 

Any information on the Site regarding sizing of Products is included as a guide only. If you are in any doubt as to the size of any Product you require, we recommend that you contact us prior to placing an order.

Article 5: ORDERING AND AVAILABILITY

Products may be ordered by clicking on the items you wish to purchase and then following the prompts that will appear on-screen. You may check and correct any input errors in your order up until the point at which you submit your order to us by clicking the "Pay Now" button on the checkout page.

After placing an order, you will receive an email from us acknowledging that we have received your order and giving you an order reference number. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy a Product. All orders are subject to acceptance by us. We are not obliged to accept your order and may, at our discretion, decline to accept any order. Especially if there is a dispute concerning the payment of the order. You do, however, acknowledge that by clicking on the "Pay Now" button, you enter into an obligation to pay for the Product(s). When we accept your order, you will receive a first e-mail with the registration of the order, the invoice and the delivery time of the order. GLOBAL-E will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an email that confirms that the Product has been dispatched (Dispatch Confirmation) with the delivery number registered with the carrier, allowing to consult the follow up of the delivery. The contract between you and GLOBAL-E in relation to the Product(s) ordered (Contract) will only be formed when GLOBAL-E sends you the Dispatch Confirmation. After entering into the Contract, GLOBAL-E will be under a legal duty to supply you with goods that are in conformity with the Contract.

The Contract will relate only to the Product(s) whose dispatch GLOBAL-E has confirmed in the Dispatch Confirmation. GLOBAL-E will not be obliged to supply any other Product(s) which may have been part of your order until the dispatch of such Product(s) has been confirmed in a separate Dispatch Confirmation.

There may be other reasons why products cannot be dispatched (e.g. because they are out of stock or if a pricing error is identified). As explained in the Global-e Terms of Service, orders are not accepted (and therefore no commitment is made to supply Products), and no contract of sale will come into effect until Global-e specifically accept orders and notify you by email that they have received the products from the us. Global-e also reserve the right to cancel or refuse orders.

Article 6: PRICE

We use our best efforts to ensure that prices stated are correct but occasionally products or services are incorrectly priced. If this happens, products may not be dispatched or your order may be cancelled after dispatch. In such circumstances, Global-e would refund you.

Please note that prices do not include delivery.

For information about customs duties and taxes, please refer to the Global-e Terms of Service.

Article 7: PAYMENTS METHODS

GLOBAL-E accepts Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express, PayPal, Paypal Express Paypal BNPL, Apple Pay, Amazon Pay.

Article 8: CANCELLATIONS, RETURNS AND GUARANTEES 

These provisions form part of your sale contract with Global-e and we therefore refer you to the Global-e Terms of Service for further information about cancellations, returns and guarantees.

*Our return policy is extended to 60 days for all products purchased online between November 15 and January 14, 2025.

You have a (14) fourteen days period to retract from your purchase, without having to justify any reason.

We authorize you to return the purchased products within a period of 30 days.

The period of thirty (30) days starts:

- from the day when you or a third party, who is not the carrier, designated by the client has received the ordered item,

- or, in the case of an order for several items delivered separately, from the day on which you, or a third party other than the carrier, designated by you, have received the last item.

You must generate a return on the maisonkitsune.com/us/ website and via the Global-e platform, indicating the item concerned by the return and the reason for the return.

Once KITSUNÉ has issued the return label, you have fourteen (14) days to send the returned Products.

You are responsible for printing the return label and placing it on the package to be returned.

The cost of returning Products may be borne by the Customer, depending on the country of dispatch. In this case, the return costs will be deducted from the amount of the refund for the Products.

In case of difficulty concerning the return of the parcel, it is advisable to contact KITSUNÉ Customer Service in order to obtain the necessary information.

However, KITSUNÉ will not be held responsible for the loss, damage or destruction of the parcel if you generate your return through a service other than Global-e.

Products that are incomplete, damaged, soiled or returned outside the return period will not be accepted. Maison Kitsuné reserves the right to refuse the refund of an item that does not meet the return criteria. In this case, you will receive an email from customer service informing you that your return has not been accepted and we will resend the item concerned. Gift boxes and pouches cannot be taken back, exchanged and/or reimbursed by Maison Kitsuné.
