They apply to the exclusion of all other conditions, particularly those applicable in store or via other distribution channels.
The Client declares to have read and accepted these GTC before validating their order. Validation of the order therefore implies full and complete acceptance of the GTC in force on that date.

The products offered for sale are those listed on the Site on the day of consultation, subject to stock availability.
Photographs, illustrations, and descriptions are as accurate as possible but have no absolute contractual value: slight variations in shade, texture, or appearance may exist, particularly due to the Client's screen settings and the natural characteristics of textiles.
The essential characteristics of each product (composition, dimensions, care instructions) are indicated on its product page.
In the event of a product being unavailable after the order has been placed, Al Rezam will inform the Client as soon as possible and will refund the product concerned within a maximum of 14 days.

This provision is without prejudice to the right of withdrawal provided for in Article 9.

8.3 Transfer of Risks
(Consumers) In accordance with Article L216-4 of the Consumer Code, the risks of loss or damage to the products are transferred to the Client at the moment they — or a third party designated by them, other than the carrier — physically take possession of the products.

The Client is invited to check the condition of the package upon receipt.

In the event of inaccurate or incomplete contact details provided by the Client leading to a return of the package, the re-shipping costs will be borne by them.
Article 9 — Right of Withdrawal (Consumers only)
9.1 Principle
In accordance with Article L221-18 of the Consumer Code, the Client has a period of 14 calendar days from receipt of the last product of their order to exercise their right of withdrawal, without having to give reasons or incur penalties.
9.2 Exceptions
In accordance with Article L221-28 of the Consumer Code, the right of withdrawal cannot be exercised for:
- goods made to the Client's specifications or clearly personalized (embroidery, personalization, custom-made item);
- goods unsealed by the Client after delivery and which cannot be returned for reasons of hygiene or health protection;
- goods which, after being delivered and by their nature, are inseparably mixed with other items.
However, the right of withdrawal fully applies to promotional and sale items.
9.3 Exercise Modalities
The Client notifies their decision to withdraw by an unambiguous statement:
- by e-mail to alrezam.com@gmail.com, specifying their order number and the items concerned;
- or by using the standard form found in Appendix 1 hereof.
Al Rezam acknowledges receipt of the request without delay and provides instructions as well as the return address.
9.4 Product Returns
The Client returns the products no later than 14 days after notifying their withdrawal, to the return address communicated by Customer Service.
Products must be returned in a condition allowing them to be resold: unworn (beyond trying on), unwashed, unaltered, undamaged, complete with their accessories, attached tags, and in their original packaging.
The Client's liability is only engaged with regard to the depreciation of goods resulting from handling other than that necessary to establish the nature, characteristics, and proper functioning of the products (Art. L221-23). If applicable, Al Rezam may apply a proportionate markdown, duly justified.
The direct costs of return are borne by the Client.
The Client is recommended to use a tracked shipping method and, for any shipment with a value greater than €75, to take out insurance. Proof of return is the responsibility of the Client.
9.5 Refund
Al Rezam reimburses the Client for all sums paid, including standard outbound delivery costs, no later than 14 days from the recovery of the products or the provision by the Client of proof of their shipment, the date chosen being the first of these facts.
If the Client has expressly chosen a delivery method more expensive than the standard method offered, the additional cost is not reimbursed.
In the event of partial withdrawal, only the returned products are reimbursed; outbound delivery costs are not reimbursed if part of the order is retained.
The reimbursement is made using the same payment method as that used for the initial transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise by the Client and without cost to them.
Article 10 — Legal Guarantees
Independently of any commercial guarantee, Al Rezam remains bound by defects of conformity and hidden defects under the conditions provided by law.
Mandatory Information Box (Art. L217-15 of the Consumer Code)
The consumer has a period of two years from the delivery of the goods to obtain the implementation of the legal guarantee of conformity in the event of a defect of conformity appearing. During this period, the consumer is only required to establish the existence of the defect of conformity and not the date of its appearance.
The legal guarantee of conformity gives the consumer the right to repair or replacement of the goods within thirty days following their request, without charge and without major inconvenience to them.
If the goods are repaired under the legal guarantee of conformity, the consumer benefits from a six-month extension of the initial guarantee.
If the consumer requests repair of the goods, but the seller imposes replacement, the legal guarantee of conformity is renewed for a period of two years from the date of replacement of the goods.
The consumer may obtain a reduction in the purchase price by keeping the goods or terminate the contract by being fully reimbursed against return of the goods, if:
- The professional refuses to repair or replace the goods;
- The repair or replacement of the goods occurs after a period of thirty days;
- The repair or replacement of the goods causes a major inconvenience to the consumer, particularly when the consumer definitively bears the costs of taking back or removing the non-conforming goods, or if they bear the costs of installing the repaired or replacement goods;
- The non-conformity of the goods persists despite the seller's unsuccessful attempt to bring them into conformity.
The consumer also has the right to a reduction in the price of the goods or to the termination of the contract when the defect of conformity is so serious that it justifies an immediate price reduction or contract termination. The consumer is then not required to request repair or replacement of the goods beforehand.
The consumer does not have the right to terminate the sale if the defect of conformity is minor.
Any period of immobilization of the goods for repair or replacement suspends the guarantee that remained to run until the delivery of the goods in good condition.
The rights mentioned above result from the application of articles L. 217-1 to L. 217-32 of the Consumer Code.
The seller who maliciously obstructs the implementation of the legal guarantee of conformity incurs a civil fine of a maximum of 300,000 euros, which may be increased to 10% of the average annual turnover (article L. 241-5 of the Consumer Code).
The consumer also benefits from the legal guarantee against hidden defects pursuant to articles 1641 to 1649 of the Civil Code, for a period of two years from the discovery of the defect. This guarantee entitles them to a price reduction if the goods are kept or to a full refund against return of the goods.
Implementation
Any request under the legal guarantees must be sent by e-mail to alrezam.com@gmail.com, accompanied by the order number and photographs of the observed defect.
The return costs for a non-conforming product are fully covered by Al Rezam.
Article 11 — Gift Cards
Gift cards are valid for 12 months from their issue date, usable only on the Site, non-reloadable, and not exchangeable for cash. Any unused balance remains available until expiration.
Products purchased using a gift card benefit from the right of withdrawal; reimbursement is then made in the form of a credit of equivalent value.

13.3 Competent Jurisdiction
These GTC are subject to French law.
(Consumers) In the event of a dispute not resolved amicably, the Client may bring the matter before, at their choice, the court of their domicile, the place of effective delivery of the product, or one of the territorially competent courts under the Code of Civil Procedure.
(Professionals) Exclusive jurisdiction is attributed to the courts of Paris, notwithstanding multiple defendants or third-party claims.
