This information, delivered in clear, comprehensible terms, mentions the non-renewal deadline in a visible box.

Where this information has not been sent to the consumer in accordance with the provisions of the first paragraph, the consumer may terminate the contract free of charge at any time after the renewal date.

Advances made after the last renewal date or, in the case of open-ended contracts, after the date of conversion of the initial contract to a fixed-term contract, are in this case reimbursed within thirty days of the termination date, after deduction of sums corresponding, up to that date, to the performance of the contract. The provisions of the present article

apply without prejudice to those which legally subject certain contracts to specific rules regarding consumer information.

Article L215-2 of the French Consumer Code excludes the application of article L215-1 to operators of drinking water and wastewater services. Conversely, article L215-3 of the French Consumer Code stipulates that these rules apply to contracts concluded between professionals and non-professionals.

Article L241-3 of the French Consumer Code penalizes professionals who fail to make refunds in accordance with the conditions set out in article L 215-1 of the French Consumer Code”.

ARTICLE 8 – Subscription

To subscribe to a Subscription, the User must have legal capacity.

To subscribe to a Subscription, the User must be registered on the Platform and log in to his Account.

8.1.  Essential features of the Subscription

The mentor’s profile will present the essential characteristics of the Subscription he or she is offering, as well as the information required under applicable law, and to verify its accuracy.

These features are listed on the mentor’s public profile and include :

• Mentor description, nickname and photo.
  • The rights conferred by the Subscription.
  • Subscription price.
  • Free mentor posts.
  • Mentor statistics.

The User undertakes to read this information carefully before subscribing to a Subscription on the Platform.

The User is hereby informed that the Subscription includes in particular :

• The right to consult the entire content of the mentor.
  • The right to comment on/like the mentor’s publications.
  • The right to rate and leave a review of the mentor to whom they subscribe.

Each Subscription is valid only for the mentor from whom the User has taken out the Subscription.

It is specified that the Subscription taken out with a mentor does not give the User any right to the quantity and quality, necessarily subjective, of the content published by the mentor.

In any event, it is the responsibility of each User to research each mentor, particularly with regard to their activity, before subscribing to any Subscription.

8.2.  Subscription procedure

8.2.1.  Subscription

Subscriptions are taken out via the Platform.

To subscribe to a Subscription, the User is invited to follow the steps below.

The User can take out a Subscription with the mentor on the Platform by clicking on the “Subscribe” button on the mentor’s Profile.

  • Select the Subscription to which you wish to subscribe;
  • If applicable, enter the Promo Code ;
  • Choosing your payment method ;

The User acknowledges that the price of the Subscription is due upon subscription to the Subscription as well as upon each renewal of said Subscription.

8.2.4.  Subscription duration

Subscription to the mentor’s account can be offered through :

• A “monthly” offer corresponding to an open-ended Subscription, with automatic monthly payments;
  • A “3-month” offer corresponding to a Subscription with a 3-month commitment for an indefinite period, giving rise to automatic monthly payments;
  • A “6-month” offer corresponding to a Subscription with a 6-month commitment for an indefinite period, giving rise to automatic monthly payments;
  • A “1-year” offer corresponding to a Subscription with a 1-year open-ended commitment, giving rise to automatic monthly payments;

The User is therefore billed monthly, on the anniversary date.

If the Subscription is taken out for an indefinite period, it may be cancelled at any time before the end of the current month, it being understood that any month of subscription started will be payable in full. Cancellation will be effective at the end of the commitment period, depending on the type of subscription selected. No prorata temporis refund may be requested.

Any Subscription for a fixed term is automatically renewed on expiry as a Subscription for an indefinite term, with automatic monthly payment on the anniversary date. The price applied will then be that of the “X months” Offer.

8.2.5.  Cancellation of Subscription

The User may at any time request to terminate his/her open-ended Subscription, for any reason, and in particular in the event of a lack of activity on the part of a mentor. Termination will be effective at the end of the User’s commitment period, depending on the type of Subscription subscribed to.

If the User cancels the Subscription after the renewal date, the Subscription will expire at the end of the commitment period and/or at the next renewal date, and the User may continue to benefit from the advantages conferred by the Subscription until that date.

9.2  Means of payment

All payments are processed through Payment Service Providers legally authorized to provide payment services to Users.

The User may pay for his Orders online on the Platform using the means proposed by the Platform, i.e. by :

• Credit card
  • Sepa direct debit

Where applicable, the User agrees to accept and comply with the PSP’s general terms and conditions applicable to the use of their services.

The User guarantees the Mentor that he/she holds all the authorizations required to use the chosen means of payment.

The User will take all necessary measures to guarantee the security and confidentiality of data transmitted online in the context of online payment on the Site.

9.4  Refusal to pay

If the bank refuses to debit a card or other means of payment, the User must contact the Platform’s Customer Service Department in order to pay for the Order by any other valid means of payment accepted by the Mentor.

In the event that, for any reason whatsoever, opposition, refusal or other, the transmission of the flow of money due by the User proves impossible, the Order will be cancelled and the sale or subscription automatically terminated.

ARTICLE 10 – Supply of Services

The Services ordered by the User will be provided as follows:

“By subscribing to a mentor, users will be able to benefit from all of the mentor’s content published on the platform. Not only his posts, but also his comments on publications.”

Said Services will be provided within a maximum of 1 month from the final validation of the user’s order, under the conditions set out in these GTS, at the address indicated by the user when placing the order on the www.slice-app.io website.

The Service Provider undertakes to use its best efforts to provide the Services ordered by the user, within the framework of an obligation of means and within the time limits specified above.

If the Services ordered have not been supplied within one month of the indicative supply date, for any reason other than force majeure or the fault of the user, the sale of the Services may be cancelled at the written request of the user under the conditions set out in articles L 216-2, L 216-3 and L241-4 of the French Consumer Code. The sums paid by the user will then be returned to him at the latest within fourteen days following the date of termination of the contract, to the exclusion of any compensation or deduction.

In the event of a specific request from the user concerning the conditions of supply of the Services, duly accepted in writing by the Service Provider, the costs relating thereto will be subject to specific additional invoicing at a later date.

In the absence of reservations or complaints expressly made by the user upon receipt of the Services, the latter shall be deemed to be in conformity with the order, in terms of quantity and quality.

The user will have a period of 4 days from the provision of the Services in which to submit complaints by e-mail, with all supporting documents, to the Service Provider.

No claim will be accepted if the user fails to comply with these formalities and deadlines.

The Service Provider will refund or rectify as soon as possible and at its own expense the Services whose lack of conformity has been duly proven by the user.

ARTICLE 11 – Right of withdrawal

Given the nature of the Services provided, orders placed by the User do not benefit from the right of withdrawal. By accessing the Subscription following any Order made from the Platform, in accordance with articles L. 221-18 et seq. of the French Consumer Code, the User acknowledges that the Mentor has fully performed its obligations, that he/she wishes to have immediate access to the content and that he/she waives the benefit of the fourteen (14) day withdrawal period resulting from the aforementioned provisions of the French Consumer Code.

In principle, no Order can give rise to a right of withdrawal, in accordance with article L221-28 of the French Consumer Code, which states that “The right of withdrawal cannot be exercised for contracts :

3° Supply of goods made to the consumer’s specifications or clearly personalized;

13° The supply of digital content not provided on a tangible medium, the performance of which has begun after the consumer has given his express prior consent and expressly waived his right of withdrawal.”

The contract is therefore definitively concluded as soon as the order is placed by the Customer in accordance with the terms and conditions specified in these GCS.
