These GTC are accessible at all times on www.aupiho.com and shall prevail over any other document.
The applicable conditions are those in force on the website at the date the order is placed. By ticking the acceptance box prior to placing an order, the Client acknowledges having read and accepted these GTC.

ARTICLE 2 – Products
The main characteristics of the Products, including specifications, illustrations and dimensions, are presented on www.aupiho.com, which the Client is required to read before placing any order.
Product photographs may differ slightly from reality due to the Client's screen settings and lighting conditions during the shoot. They are not contractually binding.
As handcrafted creations, items may show finishing irregularities, differences in format, weight and/or shade inherent to this type of manufacture. These do not constitute major defects and shall not engage the Seller's liability.
A Product available for sale on the Site means it is in stock. A Product with a manufacturing lead time of 3 to 5 weeks is not in stock and must be made before delivery. For fully bespoke jewellery (creations made specifically to the Client's specifications), the lead time is 6 to 8 weeks. The Client is informed of this on the Product page and in their cart.
ARTICLE 3 – Prices
Products are supplied at the prices shown on www.aupiho.com at the time the order is registered. For European Union countries, VAT is included in the displayed price.
Prices are shown in euros inclusive of tax and include:
- Order processing fees
- Preparation and packaging costs, including the jewellery box
Prices do not include shipping and delivery costs, which are charged in addition and calculated prior to placing the order.
The Seller reserves the right to modify prices at any time. Products already ordered are invoiced at the price in effect at the time the order was registered.
An invoice is issued by the Seller and provided to the Client upon delivery of the ordered Products.
ARTICLE 4 – Orders
Orders are placed on www.aupiho.com. The Client selects the desired Products, adds them to the cart, creates an account or logs in, then confirms the order by ticking the GTC acceptance box and clicking "Place my order".
The sale is only considered valid after full payment of the price. The Client must verify the accuracy of the order and report any errors immediately.
The Seller reserves the right to cancel or refuse any order from a Client with whom a dispute exists regarding payment of a previous order.
Cancellation by the Client:
- In-stock jewellery: cancellation possible before dispatch (within 24 hours of placing the order).
- Made-to-order or bespoke jewellery: cancellation possible within one week of order confirmation by the Seller, and only if manufacturing has not yet begun.
Dispatch lead times:
- In-stock jewellery: 3 to 5 business days in France, 5 to 8 business days for other European countries (for orders placed before noon on a business day, with confirmed payment).
- Made-to-order jewellery (manufacturing): 3 to 5 weeks in Europe from order validation.

An order confirmation is sent to the Client by email, including an order summary and the delivery and billing addresses.
ARTICLE 5 – Client Account
To place an order, the Client is invited to create a personal account. The Client undertakes to provide accurate and up-to-date information, including their email address.
The Client is solely responsible for the confidentiality of their login credentials. Any use of the account with these credentials is the Client's responsibility.
The Client may request account deletion at any time by emailing hello@aupiho.com. Account deletion results in the deletion of associated personal data, as set out in the Site's Privacy Policy.
Creating an account implies acceptance of these GTC.

The Client may pay for their order by the following means:
Credit/debit card payment (CB, Mastercard®, Visa®)

Bank transfer
The Client has 8 business days from order confirmation to complete the transfer. The order will be cancelled if payment is not received within this period.
Payments made by the Client shall only be considered final upon effective receipt of the amounts due by the Seller.
ARTICLE 7 – Delivery
Deliveries are handled by independent carriers depending on the destination:
- Colissimo (La Poste) – Metropolitan France
- DHL – Metropolitan France for urgent orders, and international destinations
- Bpost – Belgium
Deliveries are made to metropolitan France, Belgium and Europe. For any other destination, a specific request must be sent to the customer service team at hello@aupiho.com, who will provide a quote.

ARTICLE 10 – Warranties
10.1 Legal warranties
Legal warranty of conformity (articles L. 217-4 et seq. of the French Consumer Code):
"The seller is required to deliver goods that conform to the contract and is liable for any lack of conformity existing at the time of delivery. The seller is also liable for any lack of conformity resulting from packaging, assembly instructions or installation when this has been made their responsibility under the contract or has been carried out under their responsibility."
This warranty applies for a period of 2 years from delivery of the Product. The Client may choose between repair or replacement of the goods, subject to the conditions provided by law.
Legal warranty against hidden defects (articles 1641 et seq. of the French Civil Code):
"The seller is bound by the warranty for hidden defects in the item sold which render it unfit for the purpose for which it was intended, or which so diminish that use that the buyer would not have bought it, or would only have given a lower price for it, had they known of them."
10.2 AUPIHO Commercial Warranty
In addition to legal warranties, AUPIHO grants its Clients a voluntary commercial warranty of 1 year from the date of purchase, upon presentation of the purchase invoice. This warranty covers manufacturing defects as assessed by AUPIHO's workshops.
It does not cover: normal wear of the jewellery, tarnishing, rhodium plating, accidental damage and impacts, scratches, modifications or repairs carried out by a third party other than AUPIHO, or resizing performed outside AUPIHO's workshops.
Any external intervention results in the immediate loss of the commercial warranty.
10.3 After-Sales Service (SAV)
- Contact customer service by email at hello@aupiho.com, describing the issue and attaching photos.
- AUPIHO's workshop will assess the jewellery upon receipt.
- If the defect is covered by the warranty, repair is carried out free of charge. If the damage is the Client's responsibility, a quote will be provided before any work begins — no repair will be carried out without the Client's written agreement.
- Shipping costs to AUPIHO's workshops are the exclusive responsibility of the Client in all cases. The parcel must be sent by registered post with signature and insurance to the value of the jewellery. AUPIHO accepts no liability for loss or damage during transit.
If repair is impossible or requires more than 2 months from the date of the claim, the Client may return the Product and receive a refund via the original payment method.
