Any operations relative to the Birth List can take place only on the Internet website www.sucredorge.com.

Creation of the Birth List

Once identified, the User, holder of the Birth List account, can create the Birth List by filling in the creation form. The User is required to fill in the boxes with his name, surname and telephone number, indicate the name of the Birth List and the baby’s date of birth and finally specify the address where he wishes to receive the products from the Birth List. If he so wishes, the User can limit access to the Birth List by filling in a password, which he can then forward to his Close Relations.

Sharing the Birth List:

After creating the Birth List, the User can share it by clicking on the link ‘Share my List’ intended for this purpose. The User must then fill in the form indicating the e-mail addresses of the Close Relations with whom he wishes to share the Birth List. The close Relations will receive an e-mail at the address provided by the User including an access link to the Birth List and proposing that they consult the Birth List. The User can also publish the Birth List on Facebook by clicking on the link ‘Publish my List on Facebook’ intended for this purpose.

Selection of products:

The User selects the products he would like to see on his Birth List by clicking on the button ‘For my Birth List’ included on each product available on the Internet website www.sucredorge.com The User can change his selection at any time. Only products sold on the Internet website www.sucredorge.com can be added to the Birth List. The availability of products may vary during the time the Birth List is online. The products are offered for sale within the limit of available stocks. Non-availability of a product on the Internet website www.sucredorge.com automatically results in disappearance of the product from the Birth List. The articles selected from the Birth List cannot be reserved so long as the order has not been validated. The stock is not blocked so long as the article has not been purchased by a Close Relation or by the User himself.

Access and participation in the Birth List:

The Close Relation can access the User’s Birth List using the link included in the e-mail sharing the Birth List, either with the link on the User’s Facebook page or by clicking on the link ‘Participate in a Birth List’ on the Internet website www.sucredorge.com. To access the Birth List, the Close Relation must indicate the name of the Birth List sent by the User and possibly the password. The Close Relation will then be able to choose and add the product or products he wishes to purchase and offer from among those selected by the User in his Birth List. Processing by GSA of the order, which will be delivered at the address specified by the User, depends on validation of the order and payment.

Prices of the articles:

The prices of the articles indicated on the Internet website www.sucredorge.com are given in euros, tax inclusive, taking account of the Value Added Tax applicable at the time the order is validated (on the French territory). They do not include delivery and handling costs of the order, which are indicated to the User and/or the Close Relation when the order for the articles from the Birth List is placed. The ordered articles are billed on the basis of the prices in force at the time of final validation of the order.

The duration of validity of the Birth List is two (2) months following the expected date of birth of the child; this date must be provided in the form for creating the Birth List. The Birth List can be closed by the User at any time. Once the Birth List has been closed, the User can no longer change it.
