ARTICLE 1
The scope of the work is set out in the order form. Under no circumstances shall it give rise to any subsequent claims. Orders may be placed by advertising agents, provided that they are approved by PANO.
ARTICLE 2 – ARTWORK
Unless otherwise agreed, artwork shall be supplied by the client. This must be submitted to PANO at least one week before the order’s delivery date. The reproduction of special artwork, the supply of special equipment and lighting may give rise to additional charges as set out in the special terms and conditions. Any subsequent request for amendments will be subject to a prior quotation. Where PANO produces the artwork, as well as any sketches, designs, drawings, engravings, compositions, files, photographic prints or other materials supplied by PANO, PANO reserves the artistic ownership thereof and retains exclusive ownership, even if they have been invoiced, and reproduction is strictly prohibited.
ARTICLE 3 – MATERIALS
Where the client supplies specific materials, these must be provided at least one week before the delivery date. In the event of a delay on the part of the client in supplying the materials for which they are responsible, delivery will be arranged to the best of PANO’s ability.
ARTICLE 4 – LIABILITY
4.1 TEXTS AND LOGOS
PANO accepts no liability regarding the reproduction rights of the originals entrusted to us: PANO considers that all clients hold these reproduction rights for the orders entrusted to it, and the very act of handing over the documents to be reproduced indemnifies PANO against any action that might be brought in relation to these rights.
4.2 INSTALLATION
The client is solely responsible for ensuring that their advertising installations comply with the regulations in force (Decree No. 2012-118 of 30 January 2012). For all signs, pre-signs or advertisements subject to prior authorisation, supply and/or installation by PANO will be carried out on the basis that ‘administrative authorisations for installation are deemed to have been granted on the date of installation’.
ARTICLE 5 – PAYMENTS
The customer shall pay half the price upon placing the order and the balance upon delivery of the goods. Any failure by the customer, whether total or partial, to fulfil their payment obligations, or any delay, shall result, without prejudice to any claim for damages, in the payment of a fixed compensation fee of 40 euros to cover recovery costs. Any delay in payment shall automatically give rise to a late payment penalty calculated by applying a rate of 15.21 per cent to the outstanding amounts, without this penalty affecting the enforceability of the debt. Late payment penalties are payable without the need for a reminder. Failure to pay a single instalment one month after a registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt has been sent and has remained unheeded shall entitle PANO to repossess the equipment supplied immediately and without any formalities, and to demand immediate payment of the full amount of this order. The same shall apply in the event of the customer’s liquidation, administration or bankruptcy.
ARTICLE 6 – PROMOTION
The client authorises PANO to mention its name, trading name and logo, and to showcase the work carried out for the client in its sales literature, corporate communications, websites and shops, as well as at trade fairs and various events directly related to PANO.
ARTICLE 7 – PENALTY CLAUSE
Failure to pay a single bill of exchange or invoice by its due date shall result in the cancellation of the term and shall render all our claims, even those already due, immediately payable, in accordance with Article 1990 of the Civil Code.
ARTICLE 8 – DISPUTES
In the event of any dispute, the courts having jurisdiction shall be those within the jurisdiction of the issuer of these General Terms and Conditions of Sale, whose contact details are set out on the order form.
