Article 9. Transfer of ownership

The Vendor remains the owner of the Products delivered until full payment has been received from the Customer.

The Seller shall not be held liable if the non-performance or delay in performance of any of its obligations described in these GCS is due to force majeure.

Force majeure in contractual matters occurs when an event beyond the debtor’s control, which could not reasonably have been foreseen when the contract was concluded and the effects of which cannot be avoided by appropriate measures, prevents the debtor from fulfilling its obligation.

If the impediment is temporary, performance of the obligation is suspended, unless the resulting delay justifies termination of the contract. If the impediment is definitive, the contract is terminated ipso jure, and the parties are released from their obligations under the conditions set out in articles 1351 and 1351-1 of the French Civil Code.

In the event of one of the aforementioned events, the Vendor will endeavor to inform the Customer as soon as possible.
