General Terms and Conditions of Sale

  1. The customer expressly waives its own standard general terms and conditions, even if these were drawn up subsequently to these standard general terms and conditions of sale. To be valid, any derogation must be expressly agreed in advance in writing.
  2. Our invoices are payable within 21 working days, unless another payment deadline is indicated either on the invoice or on the order. In the event of non-payment on the due date, SAS Chateau de Rouffiac reserves the right to request payment of fixed interest amounting to 10% of the sum still due. SAS Chateau de Rouffiac will be entitled to suspend all services without prior warning in the event of late payment.
  3. If a payment is still due more than sixty (60) days after the due date, SAS Château de Rouffiac reserves the right to call upon the services of a debt collection company. All legal costs will be borne by the client.
  4. Some countries apply a withholding tax on the amount of invoices, in accordance with their legislation. Any withholding tax will be paid by the customer to the tax authorities. Under no circumstances will SAS Château de Rouffiac be involved in the costs linked to the legislation of a country. The amount of the invoice will therefore be due to SAS Chateau de Rouffiac in its entirety and does not include any costs linked to the legislation of the country in which the client is located.
  5. SAS Château de Rouffiac undertakes to do its best to provide efficient services on time, in accordance with the agreed deadlines. However, none of its obligations may be considered as an obligation of result. SAS Château de Rouffiac may under no circumstances be required by the client to appear as a third party in the context of a claim for damages brought against the client by an end consumer.
  6. To be admissible, SAS Château de Rouffiac must be notified of any complaint by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt to its registered office within 8 days of delivery of the goods or provision of the services.
  7. All our contractual relations will be governed exclusively by French law. Only the Commercial Court of Cahors has jurisdiction.
