Data protection and secure payment policy
Secure payments
SSL encryption - Security of online purchase.
To protect you as a customer, we only use certified encryption techniques. Using SSL (Secure Socket Layer), your personal data is transmitted encrypted (inaccessible to third parties) over the Internet. As the SSL security procedure is technically very complex and the link can therefore become slow, SSL encryption is only activated in the case of an order procedure. Thus, you can be sure that your personal data such as your credit card number can only be transmitted to our server.

Data collection is done when you enter your data in the input mask of the contact or order form.
2. Use of data
We only use the personal data thus collected for the purpose for which you have transmitted them to us, and in particular to fulfill your order, to send you the catalogs in force or the newsletters that you have ordered.

It may possibly be necessary to transmit your data to providers such as accounting departments or carriers, in order to be able to execute your order.
