CLUB CONDITIONS
Article 1 - Presentation
1.1. QUARRY CELLARS
Membership of the Le CLUB card loyalty program (hereinafter referred to as "Le CLUB") is offered by CAVES CARRIÈRE, a simplified joint stock company with share capital of 58,512 euros, registered with the Dijon Trade and Companies Register under number 528 069 636, located at 12 rue de Skopje 21000 Dijon, France, and operating as a beverage retailer in specialized stores (4725Z).
1.2. Le CLUB loyalty program
The principle of the CLUB loyalty program is simple: Members earn points for each purchase made from CAVES CARRIÈRE. The total points accumulated will enable the Member to access one of the statuses offered by CAVES CARRIÈRE.
Depending on the number of points accumulated, Members can access different CLUB levels as follows:
-REGIONAL CLUB" starting at 1 point (grape)
-CLUB VILLAGE" starting at 3,600 points (grapes)
-PREMIER CRU CLUB" starting at 6,000 points (grapes)
-CLUB GRAND CRU" starting at 12,000 points (grapes)
The number of points accumulated depends on purchases made during the year N-1 or the amount of the customer's first order.
The Member is a member of a CLUB for the duration of the calendar year.
For example, you earn 3,800 points in year N. From the 1sterJanuary of year N+1 you will be considered as a CLUB VILLAGE member and will benefit from all the advantages of this membership.
Article 2 - Scope of application
These General Terms and Conditions of Membership of the CAVES CARRIÈRE CLUB loyalty program define the conditions of membership of the program and govern the relationship between CAVES CARRIÈRE and the Member of said program.
These terms and conditions apply automatically to members of the program. Membership of the Le CLUB loyalty program is therefore subject to these terms and conditions.
At the time of joining, they will be made available to the future Member, who will be able to consult and download them. Membership implies acceptance of the present terms and conditions.
The terms and conditions of membership of the Le CLUB loyalty program are set out in article 3.2 hereof.
CAVES CARRIÈRE reserves the right to modify the General Terms and Conditions of Membership of the CLUB loyalty program at its own discretion. In this case, any new membership will be subject to the new conditions.
Article 3 - CLUB membership conditions
3.1 - Conditions relating to Members
Le CLUB is reserved for CAVES CARRIÈRE customers only. CAVES CARRIÈRE employees are not eligible for the Le CLUB loyalty program.
Only natural persons of legal age may join the Le CLUB program.
The Member must be a consumer, i.e., according to the preliminary article of the French Consumer Code, a natural person who acts for purposes that do not fall within the scope of his or her commercial, industrial, artisanal, liberal or agricultural activity.
Any natural person or legal entity (company, works council, association, etc.) acting within the framework of its commercial, industrial, craft, liberal or agricultural activity to make purchases on its own behalf may not be admitted to the CLUB and may not therefore benefit or allow a natural person to benefit (even if the latter has joined the Loyalty Program) from the advantages of the CLUB program.
In addition, any legal entity acting for purposes outside its professional activity, referred to as "non-professional" by the French Consumer Code, is also excluded from the Le CLUB program.
The Member declares that he/she has the legal capacity to enter into a contract in accordance with the applicable legislation and attests that he/she is a natural person of legal age who meets the legal definition of a consumer as set out above.
3.2 - Registration conditions
Membership of the loyalty program is free and paperless. It is done via the customer account already in place or yet to be created.
The recording of points, enabling them to be accumulated, is therefore carried out automatically by means of identification of the Member customer for each purchase made.
Dematerialization is subject to the vagaries of computer technology and may therefore be subject to malfunctions. In such a case, CAVES CARRIÈRE cannot be held responsible.
However, in the event of such a problem, CAVES CARRIÈRE will accept any proof of purchase made within two months of the purchase in a boutique or on the Internet in order to regularize the points count and thus update any erroneous accumulation of points due to such a malfunction.
Subscribing to the CLUB loyalty program is as follows:
1. For new CAVES CARRIÈRE customers, when creating an account on the website (https://www.caves-carriere.fr/en/) or at CAVES CARRIÈRE's physical boutique located at 12 rue de Skopje 21000 Dijon, he/she will be able to identify himself/herself as an individual.
Once this has been done, he or she will be invited to join the Le CLUB loyalty program, and will be able to tick the corresponding box provided (this is done by the employee in the store when an account is created in the CAVES CARRIÈRE physical store).
As soon as he/she ticks this box, the present General Terms and Conditions of Membership will be offered to him/her for reading so that he/she can familiarize himself/herself with them and consent to them.
2. For customers who already have a customer account with CAVES CARRIÈRE when the CLUB loyalty program is set up, a notification will appear on the website (https://www.caves-carriere.fr/en/) in order to offer him/her the opportunity to subscribe to the Le CLUB loyalty program.
Should the customer visit CAVES CARRIÈRE's physical point of sale, he/she will be informed by any means of the existence of the loyalty program and will be able to join it.
As for the new customer, once the customer has expressed his intention to subscribe to the Le CLUB program, he will be asked to consult these terms and conditions in order to give his consent.
3.3 - Conditions for acquiring points (determining purchases)
The accumulation of points provided by the loyalty program will be possible only for purchases made on the site (https://www.caves-carriere.fr/en/) and in CAVES CARRIÈRE's physical boutique at 12 rue de Skopje 21000 Dijon.
On the other hand, purchases made on "Market place" type platforms will not earn points.
Points will be calculated on the basis of the price of the order including VAT but excluding shipping costs.
Each euro spent equals one point.As soon as the shopping basket shows a decimal price including VAT, rounding up to the nearest euro will be provided to facilitate the calculation of points.
For example, if you place an order for a total of €38.20, you will earn 39 points.
Points will be accumulated over the calendar year from 1 January to 31 DecembererJanuary to December 31, regardless of the date of membership. In other words, a membership date during the calendar year will not shift the date on which points are calculated.
For example, you join Le CLUB on April 10. Points will be calculated for the period from April 10 to December 31 N. From the 1sterJanuary N+1 you will be, according to the points accumulated during the year, considered as belonging to one of the CLUBS proposed by CAVES CARRIÈRE.
Finally, in order to accumulate a maximum number of points for each order placed, the Member must identify himself/herself on the website or give his/her login details at the checkout in order for the points to be allocated to him/her.
In the event of reimbursement of an order for which points have been accumulated, the points accumulated at the time of purchase will be deducted from the Member's loyalty account.
Article 4 - Status
Membership of Le CLUB is valid for an indefinite period.
Eligibility for one of the CLUBS offered by the loyalty program will be assessed according to the total points accumulated by the Member during the previous calendar year, and will be recalculated each year.
Thus, the status of a Member of a particular CLUB (cf. article 1.2.) will not be acquired for an indefinite period but will vary from year to year depending on the number of purchases made during the year.
For example, if your purchases in year N total €6,500 incl. VAT, you will earn 6,500 points. The sum total of these points entitles you to join the PREMIER CRU CLUB from the 1sterJanuary N+1. You will therefore benefit from the advantages of this CLUB of 1erJanuary N+1 to December 31 N+1.
In year N+1, you make a purchase for a total amount of €5,000, including VAT, so you accumulate 5,000 points. The sum total of these points gives you access to the CLUB VILLAGE of 1erJanuary N+2 to December 31 N+2.
More precisely, the variation according to the customer's N-1 purchases will determine the move from one CLUB to another.
The granting of a Member's status to one of the CLUBS will take effect automatically at the end of the calendar year, without the Member having to carry out any action whatsoever.
Each year, CAVES CARRIÈRE will notify Members of the information relating to their membership of a particular CLUB in terms of points accumulated.
Benefits are granted only after the first year of membership.
Article 5 - Benefits
The advantages of belonging to a CLUB to which the Member is assimilated are determined on the CAVES CARRIÈRE websitehttps://www.caves-carriere.fr/en/content/15-conditions-generales-club
CAVES CARRIÈRE may change the benefits at any time. Members are informed by any means. Members present on the day of the modification do not lose the benefits acquired on the day of notification.
The benefits communicated are guaranteed for the duration of the status's validity, from the time the status is obtained until it is updated in year N+1.
For example, if the number of points required to join a CLUB varies, this variation will only apply to existing Members in the next points acquisition year.
The CLUB loyalty program gives each Member access to one-off or recurring benefits.
5.1 - Advantages for all statuses (Regional, Village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru)
-Cagnottage
This benefit is provided for all CLUB statuses and differs depending on the status:
- Regional : the kitty is made up of a total of 5% of the price of each order, including VAT and excluding shipping costs
- Village : the kitty is made up of a total of 7% of the price of each order, including VAT and excluding shipping costs
- Premier Cru : the kitty is made up of a total of 9% of the price (including VAT) of each order placed, excluding shipping costs
- Grand Cru : the kitty is made up of a total of 10% of the price of each order, including VAT and excluding shipping costs
This kitty can be used without delay from the order following the one that created it.
The kitty can only be used for purchases on the site:https://www.caves-carriere.fr/en/
The amount collected does not constitute a credit and cannot be reimbursed. It is a commercial gesture to be used on future purchases. To view the amount accumulated in the kitty, customers can log in to their customer account and view it in the "My rewards" section. The kitty can be used on the payment page of the order process. The customer must retrieve a personal and confidential code from their account in the "My Rewards" section My rewards". He/she can then use the kitty as a means of payment by entering the code previously consulted. The kitty can only be used once. The amount of the order for which the Customer wishes to use his kitty must therefore be greater than this kitty.
Credits accumulated in the kitty have a maximum duration of 1 year from the first purchase that generated the first benefit. Past[NH1] this one-year period From the first purchase, if the customer has not used up his/her kitty, any unused benefits will be permanently lost. In the event of return or cancellation with refund, the amount of the kitty accumulated during the cancelled or returned order will be withdrawn. In the event of return or cancellation with refund, the amount of the kitty used will be refunded to the customer's loyalty account.
The kitty can only be used by its holder. The loyalty kitty is strictly personal. The loyalty kitty cannot be combined with other customer accounts. Any fraud or attempted fraud will be punished by the non-delivery of the customer's orders. Fraud, if proven, will allow CAVES CARRIÈRE to prohibit the identified author from buying again on the site caves-carriere.fr. The kitty may be withdrawn at any time in the event of fraud or any misuse or non-compliance with the provisions of these terms and conditions. The holder of the kitty then loses any right to use previously acquired loyalty credits, and the euros acquired will not be returned. In the event of dispute concerning the amount of euros acquired or the new accumulation, any claim must be made to the sitehttps://www.caves-carriere.fr/en/.
