Once the desired product is selected, it is placed in the “basket” by the button “sponsor these trees”. The customer can then continue their selection of items, modify their shopping cart or continue with the order process and pay.
The validation of the order by the customer means the acceptance of the general conditions of sale. Once the order has been validated and paid for, the customer receives order confirmation information by email.
Tree sponsorships are valid for one year from the day the order is paid. They may be renewed by the Client after sending an information e-mail to the Client informing him of the end of the sponsorship.

The prices mentioned on the e-commerce site are indicated including all taxes, including the costs of preparing and shipping the order.
