The products visible on the E-Commerce site and the stock status displayed in real time on the site are provided for information purposes only and do not constitute offers on the part of Cocooning Shops Sarl.
Cocooning Shops Sarl is committed to making the necessary efforts to ensure that the photographic representation of the products and services offered for sale on the E-Commerce site is as faithful to reality as possible.

3. Personal data
Cocooning Shops Sarl is committed to respecting the confidentiality of personal data provided by customers on the E-Commerce site and to processing it in accordance with legal obligations.

No data will be transmitted to third parties for commercial purposes.

- For order processing, deliveries and invoicing

The customer is given the option to refuse the sending of invitation emails or commercial communications by Cocooning Shops Sarl during their first registration. This functionality remains modifiable at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter.
The customer agrees to provide the personal information necessary for the management of their order (delivery and invoicing). This information must be correct, valid and up to date. The information relating to their identification and password must be kept secret by the customer.
4. Sales process
4.1. Orders
Once the desired product is selected, it is placed in the "shopping cart" via the "Add to cart" button. The customer can then continue selecting items, modify their shopping cart, or continue the order process and pay.
Validation of the order by the customer constitutes acceptance of the general terms and conditions of sale.
Once the order is validated and paid for, the customer receives order confirmation information via email.
4.2. Prices
The prices mentioned per item on the E-Commerce site are indicated inclusive of all taxes and excluding preparation or logistics shipping costs. The shipping costs for the order will be indicated before final validation of the order.
Cocooning Shops Sarl reserves the right to modify the prices and other costs displayed on the E-Commerce site at any time without notice. However, products will be billed to the customer on the basis of the rates in effect at the time of order validation.
4.3. Product representation
Cocooning Shops Sarl is committed to making the necessary efforts to ensure that the photographic representation of the products and services offered for sale on the E-Commerce site is as faithful to reality as possible. However, given the way these products are presented on the Internet, it is possible that the customer's perception of the photographic representation of the products may not correspond exactly to the products themselves.
4.4. Secure payments
For payment of the order, the following are accepted:
- Visa
- Mastercard
- American Express
- Postfinance
- Klarna
Payment for purchases is made on the secure banking or postal servers of Cocooning Shops Sarl's partners, as mentioned above. This means that no banking or postal information concerning the Customer passes through the Cocooning Shops Sarl sites. Payment by bank or postal card is therefore perfectly secure.
The order will be recorded and validated as soon as payment is accepted by the payment system chosen by the Customer. Their Order will be validated and their card debited automatically at the time the Order is recorded.
The Customer must imperatively fill out the registration form offered on the Website before being able to validate an order. The Customer's credit card or Postcard details are encrypted using the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol and never pass through the network in clear text. Payment of the advance is made directly to the bank or Post Office. The card number is not sent to Cocooning Shops Sarl.
There is no minimum order, excluding shipping costs.
4.6. Delivery
Shipping costs are calculated at the end of the order, according to the weight, volume and rates of the carrier in charge of delivery. They are borne by the customer if the amount of the products chosen in the order is less than CHF 89.- in Switzerland, and will therefore be billed at CHF 7.90 for Switzerland.
Cocooning Shops Sarl ensures the shipment of goods sold via the E-Commerce site in Switzerland. The products and/or services will be sent to the delivery address that the customer indicated during the ordering process.
From the time of the order and confirmation of payment, the delivery times, given for information purposes, are as follows:

Only products purchased through the E-Commerce site and returned with their individual protective film or packaging intact (unopened and in their original packaging) can be refunded.
The procedure to follow is as follows:
- The customer sends an email to cocooning@cocooning.ch to make a return request
- The customer returns their merchandise at their own expense to the following address:
