GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE AND SERVICES
1. Opposability
These General Terms and Conditions of Sale and Services (hereinafter referred to as the "GTC") are systematically sent or given to each customer to enable them to place an order.
Placing an order implies full and unreserved acceptance of these conditions, to the exclusion of all others. Only special conditions formally accepted in writing by Fallone Event may prevail over the present G.C..
In the absence of written acceptance by the customer, any condition to the contrary shall be unenforceable against Fallone Event, regardless of when it may have been brought to its attention.
Fallone Event reserves the right to modify its G.C. The applicable G.C. are those in force at the date of the order placed by the customer. The fact that Fallone Event does not avail itself at a given time of any of the present conditions may not be interpreted as a waiver of the right to avail itself of such conditions at a later date.
2. Control
2.A Order content
Once the customer's requirements have been expressed, Fallone Event will issue an order form specifying the venue and, if applicable, the caterer and/or services chosen by the customer, as well as the dates, number of guests and price.
This order form is drawn up on the basis of declarations made by the customer, who certifies their accuracy.
Any additional services requested by the customer during the event or not provided for in the order form will be invoiced separately.
Transmission of the order form to the customer implies a written reservation option, for a period of 15 days.
Fallone Event is only bound by orders taken by its employees subject to written and signed confirmation from Fallone Event. The benefit of the order is personal to the customer and cannot be transferred without the agreement of Fallone Event.
2.B Definitive nature of the order
Orders for products or services are final only after receipt of the order form signed by the customer and the payment of a deposit of 70%, which constitute the conclusion of the contract, subject to written and signed confirmation of the order form by Fallone Event.
2.C Order modification
No modification, cancellation or cancellation of an order requested by the customer can be received after confirmation of the order by Fallone Event, unless otherwise stipulated.
In the event of total or partial cancellation of the order, Fallone Event will send the customer a "cancelled service" debit invoice, in accordance with the order form sent.
Any deposit paid by the customer to Fallone Event will be definitively acquired, unless otherwise agreed between the parties.
3. Performance of services
Fallone Event undertakes to perform the service by the deadline indicated on the order form and at the location specified by the customer.
In the event of postponement for any reason not attributable to Fallone Event, the deposit paid by the customer will be retained by Fallone Event.
An amount of 8% (eight percent) of the total order will be invoiced in addition to the initial service, to cover the costs of postponement, particularly administrative costs.
In the event of cancellation for any reason not attributable to Fallone Event, Fallone Event will retain the deposit paid by the customer and 15% (fifteen percent) of the total order as operating costs.
In the event of cancellation by a Fallone Event subcontractor, Fallone Event undertakes to use all necessary means to allow the customer access to the promised services without increasing the price stipulated on the order form.
4. Specific pandemic/COVID clause
In the event of confinement imposed by an administrative authority, Fallone Event is solely responsible for the proper performance of the services provided, and cannot therefore be held responsible for any difficulties encountered by the customer in reaching the place where the services are to be performed, if Fallone Event is otherwise able to provide the services sold and there are no exceptional and unavoidable circumstances arising at or in the immediate vicinity of the place where the services are to be performed which would have a significant impact on the performance of the contract or on the customer's transport to the place where the services are to be performed.
On the other hand, as the health situation is likely to have an impact on the running of services for several months to come, it is possible that access to certain workshops and/or activities initially planned in the contract may not be possible, given any restrictions imposed by the government.
In this case, Fallone Event may propose a replacement activity. In the event of refusal by the customer, the service that could not be performed will be reimbursed, without the possibility of claiming damages.
5. Subcontracting agreement
Fallone Event may entrust a third party with all or part of the provision of material or intellectual services.

The order may be cancelled by the customer by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt in the event of :
performance of a service that does not comply with the declared characteristics of the service;
of thirty days beyond the date fixed in the purchase order, after having previously enjoined Fallone Event, in the same manner and without result, to effect delivery within a reasonable additional period;
In all these cases, the customer may demand reimbursement of the deposit paid at the time of ordering.
The order can be resolved by Fallone Event if :
refusal to perform the service ordered;
non-payment of the price (or the balance of the price) ten days before the performance of the service.
In these cases, and these cases only, the deposit paid at the time of order remains the property of Fallone Event by way of compensation.

This authorization to capture and use images is valid for five years from the end of the contractual relationship between Fallone Event and the customer.
13. Force majeure
Fallone Event cannot be held liable in the event of non-performance or improper performance of the contract due either to the fault of its customer, or to the insurmountable and unforeseeable fault of a third party to the contract, or to a case of force majeure.
In particular, Fallone Event shall not be deemed to be in default in the event that non-performance of the contract is due to fire, flood, storm, exceptionally severe weather conditions, a fortiori a state of natural disaster, strike, industrial action or any other major incident, unavoidable obstacles, war (declared or not), embargoes, legal impediments, insurrection, events of a pandemic, epidemic, bacteriological or virological nature, or any other cause not attributable to Fallone Event.
In the event of total or partial cancellation of the order by the customer due to force majeure, a debit invoice for the "cancelled service" will be sent to the customer under the conditions set out in the article " Modification of the order ". The deposit paid to Fallone Event will remain due.
14. Material or moral damages
Fallone Event accepts no liability for any material or moral damage caused to participants or their property in connection with the event and its aftermath, and no claim or action may be brought against Fallone Event in this respect, unless it can be proved that Fallone Event acted intentionally or with gross negligence.
The client company is liable for any damage, direct or indirect, that it, its employees or participants may cause during the event and/or its aftermath.

The client company undertakes to waive, and to have its insurers and/or any participant waive, any recourse against Fallone Event in the event of damage.
Failing this, the client company undertakes to indemnify Fallone Event against all claims and undertakes to compensate Fallone Event for any damage, loss or expense resulting from such claims.

The nullity of a contractual clause does not entail the nullity of the general terms and conditions of service.

Fallone Event offers its customers advice on event decoration (spaces, colors, materials, lighting, furniture). In this respect, Fallone Event is committed to an obligation of means.
To this end, Fallone Event will do everything in its power to satisfy the customer, in accordance with the established estimate, by regularly informing the customer of the progress of its work. Once the order form has been returned by the customer, the latter may not invoke subjective criteria (such as taste, beauty or comfort) to justify Fallone Event's complete or partial redoing of the work carried out (in particular the deliverables) or refusal to pay for the services to which the customer has committed.
The customer acknowledges that visuals and other documents such as "trend boards" or "inspiration PowerPoint" provided by Fallone Event are solely illustrative and non-contractual.
