1 Information About Us
1.1 The Website is a site operated by Tiny People Studio (we/us/our).
1.2 We are registered in France under the company number (SIREN) 811 815 737 RE 670  
1.3 We do not have any international VAT numbers as our company status means that we do not collect VAT.

 

2 Your Status
2.1 By placing an order through the Website you warrant that you are old enough to buy any age restricted items
in your order.
2.2 By placing an order through the Website or through any other form of communication with us you are
deemed to have accepted these Terms and Conditions in their entirety.

 

3 Formation of the Contract
3.1 Once you have placed an order you will receive an email from us acknowledging receipt of your order. Please
note that this does not mean your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to buy Products from 
us. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an 
email that confirms that the Products have been despatched. The contract between us (Contract) will be formed
at the earlier of (i) the point when we send you the Despatch Confirmation, (ii) the point when we take payment 
for your order, or (iii) the point when we despatch the Products to you. Exceptions apply to custom ordered which 
are covered in condition 13.
3.2 The Contract will relate only to those Products whose despatch we have confirmed in the Despatch 
Confirmation. We will not be obliged to supply any other Products which may have been part of your order until 
the despatch of such Products has been confirmed in a separate Despatch Confirmation.
3.3 We reserve the right to:
3.3.1 decline any order (or part of any order) where the Products are unavailable for any reason;
3.3.2 decline any order (or part of any order) where the Website has contained obvious errors or inaccuracies in 
relation to the description of a Product or the pricing of a Product (see condition 5.1);
3.3.3 place restrictions on the volume of any Product ordered where the availability of a Product is limited; and
3.3.4 place restrictions on the volume of any Product ordered in accordance with our standard procedures 
relating to compliance with the laws and regulations in your territory.
3.3.5 refuse a commission order if we have any reason to believe that it constitutes an infringement of Copyright
or Intellectual Property  ownership held by anyone other than yourself or us.

 

4 Ownership of Products
4.1 You will become the owner of the Products when they have been delivered to you. 
4.2 Once Products have been delivered to you they will be held at your risk and we will not be liable for their use,
loss or destruction.

 

5 Price and Payment
5.1 The price of any Product will be as quoted on the Website from time to time, except in the circumstances set 
forth in condition 5.6 and condition 5.7below. The price for the Products will be confirmed before you complete 
your order and in the Despatch Confirmation.
5.2 All prices are displayed in Euros (€). You will be charged in the currency of the shipping address, or, where we 
do not accept payment in the currency local to the shipping address, Euros (€). 
5.3 Prices of Products may change at any time, but changes will not affect orders which you have placed that have
been confirmed by the Despatch Confirmation.
5.4 Prices of Products may be subject to certain sales taxes depending on where in the world the order is to be
shipped to. If you are responsible for paying tax and that tax has not been collected by us, it is your responsibility
to pay such tax as applicable.
5.5 Prices of Products exclude delivery costs which will be added (if applicable) to the total amount due prior to 
the point of check out of your order.

5.6 The Website contains a large number of Products and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some
of the Products listed on the Website may be incorrectly priced. Where a Product's correct price is less than our 
stated price, we will charge the lower amount when despatching the Products to you. If a Product's correct price is
higher than the price stated on the Website, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before 
despatching the Products, or reject your order under condition 3.3 and notify you of such rejection.
5.7 We are under no obligation to provide Products to you at an incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you
a Despatch Confirmation, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been 
recognised by you as a mis-pricing.
5.8 Payment for all Products must be made using one of the methods made available at the point of checkout.
5.9 custom or commission orders are subject to separate terms detailed under condition 12.

 

6 Delivery
6.1 The Products will be delivered to the address specified in your order and in accordance with the delivery option
selected at the point of checkout. 
6.2 Products are shipped weekly every Friday excepting bank holidays and other unforeseeable events making 
shipping impossible (including but not limited to: strikes, acts of God, social disorder…), in which case Products will
be shipped within the shortest reasonable time.
6.3 Whilst we will take reasonable steps to ensure that your order is despatched and delivered on time, please be 
aware that despatch and delivery times are estimates only, and that time of despatch or delivery is not of the 
essence of any Contract. Where any Product is manufactured or produced to order by you, an estimated delivery 
time will be specified at the point of ordering. A more detailed delivery time will then be specified in the Despatch 
Confirmation. By placing an order for a Product manufactured or produced to order, you acknowledge that delivery 
may be subject to substantial lead times.
6.4 We may defer the date of despatch or delivery or cancel any Contract, or remove from your order any Products 
ordered by you (without liability) if we are prevented or delayed in the carrying on of our business, due to 
circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God, governmental actions, 
war or national emergency, acts of terrorism, protests, riot, civil commotion, fire, explosion, extreme weather 
conditions, flood, epidemic, lock-outs, strikes or other labour disputes, fuel shortages, restraints or delays affecting 
carriers, or inability or delay in obtaining supplies of adequate or suitable materials. 
6.5 We will use reasonable endeavours to ship all of your order together in one shipment. But we reserve the right 
to ship your order in instalments should some components of your order be unavailable for delivery, or have 
delayed availability, when you place your order, or if your order is too big to deliver in one shipment. In these 
circumstances you will be charged a single delivery fee for the whole of your order.
6.6 We will use all reasonable endeavours to ensure that the Website displays the correct availability of Products for 
ordering. To the extent that we are reasonably able to do so, we will identify any limitations on availability (that we 
are aware of at that time), such as temporarily out of stock Products, in the relevant Product listing page. The 
provisions of this condition 6.6 are subject at all times to the provisions of condition 3.3.1.

 

7 Cancellations and Returns
7.1 We hope that you will be happy with all Products purchased from the Website, however, if you are not, subject 
to condition 7.4, you may cancel a Contract at any time and for any reason within seven working days, beginning on
the day after you receive the Products (Cooling-Off Period). Should you wish to do this you will receive a full refund
of the price paid for the Products as described in condition 7.3.
7.2 To cancel a Contract you must send us written notice, to be received by us during the Cooling-Off Period, by 
email or by post containing your name, address, and product order details (order number, Products ordered, and 
date of order).  You must keep the Products in your possession and take reasonable care of them. In addition, you 
must return the Products to us as soon as possible at your cost and risk, in the same condition in which you received
them. We suggest that you do this using a registered delivery service to reduce the risk of the Products not reaching
us. If you fail to take reasonable care of the Products before returning the Products to us, or fail to take reasonable 
care to ensure that we receive the Products and that they are not damaged in transit, we may take legal proceedings
to recover any damages, costs or other expenses which we incur as a result.
7.3 When you cancel a contract under condition 7.1, we will process the refund due to you no later than within 14 
days of receipt of the relevant Products back from you. We will refund the price of the Product in full, including the
cost of sending the item to you.
7.4 You will not have a right to cancel a contract under condition 7.1 where:
7.4.1 the Products forming the contract are Downloads (as defined under condition 9) such as audio books, ebooks,
magazines or tutorials (on the basis that the contract has been performed with your consent); and

7.4.2 the Product forming the contract is made to order or otherwise tailored to your specification (custom or 
commission order).
7.5 Products returned by you because of a defect (and not a cancellation under condition 7.1) will be examined by
us. Where evidence of a defect is found we will notify you of your entitlement to (at your option) (i) a replacement 
Product, or (ii) a refund for the defective Product. Where a refund is requested, we will process the refund due to 
you (including a refund of the delivery charges for sending the item to you ) as soon as possible and, in any case, 
within 30 days of the day we confirmed to you that you were entitled to a refund for the defective Product.
7.6 We will usually refund any money received from you by using the same method originally used by you to pay 
for your purchase.
7.7 Save as precluded by law, we will not be liable to you for any indirect or consequential loss, damage or expenses
(including loss of profits, business or goodwill) howsoever arising out of, or in connection with, any defect with a 
Product, and we shall have no liability to pay any money to you by way of compensation other than to refund to 
you the amount paid by you for the Product in question.
7.8 Nothing in these conditions is intended to limit any rights you might have as a consumer under applicable local
law or other statutory rights that may not be excluded nor in any way to exclude or limit our liability to you for any 
death or personal injury resulting from our negligence or fraud.

 

8 Import Duty
8.1 It is possible that your order may be subject to import duties and taxes which are levied when the Products 
reach specified destinations. You will be responsible for payment of any such import duties and taxes. Please note 
that we have no control over these charges and cannot predict their amount.
