7.1 Prices

The prices of Products are stated in Japanese Yen and include all taxes. GIVENCHY does not offer a tax refund service for purchases that might be eligible for a tax refund. GIVENCHY reserves the right to change the prices of Products before shipment.

Prices do not include shipping costs which are charged in addition to the price of the Products purchased. All orders are payable in Japanese Yen.

7.1. For orders placed through the Website

Shipping costs will be shown before the order is confirmed by the customer. The various delivery options are set out in article 9.2 a) and are also repeated on the Website. They may be modified by GIVENCHY at any time. GIVENCHY therefore advises customers to check the Terms of Sale featured on the Website on a regular basis.

In the case of an order placed through the Website, it must be paid (i) once the order preparation is finalized if a credit card is being used, or (ii) upon receipt of Products if a Cash on Delivery is being selected. In the event of unavailability of certain Products ordered, the regulations described in article 4 “Product Information and Availability” will apply. It should be noted that in the event that an alternative payment method is used, or in the event of a total or partial cancellation of the order, Customer Service may provide a refund in accordance with the conditions of article 4.

7.2. Accepted payment methods

GIVENCHY accepts the following payment methods for purchases on the Website: credit card (Visa®, MasterCard®, American Express®, JCB) and Cash on Delivery. Cash-on-delivery is only available for orders totaling less than 500,000 yen (including consumption tax) per delivery. 

Orders totaling over 500,000 yen (including consumption tax) should be paid for using a credit card listed above.

In accordance with regulations on personal data protection (the Act on Protection of Personal Information (“APPI”)), the customer has the right to disclosure and rectify all his/her personal data at any time by writing, via mail and with proof of identity, to GIVENCHY - Customer Service - 159, avenue Charles de Gaulle, 92521 Neuilly-Sur-Seine cedex, France.

• For orders placed through the Website: the customer must guarantee he/she is the cardholder of the bank card used for payment. Credit card payments are authenticated and secured using the 3D Secure system. This system is also known as “Verified by Visa®,” “MasterCard® SecureCode,” “American Express SafeKey®”, or “J/Secure”. The bank will request personal information from the customer in order to verify the identity of the cardholder and validate the transaction.

How to pay with 3D Secure on givenchy.com

• After validating his/her bank details (card number, expiration date, and security code), a new page will be displayed where the customer will need to enter the personal information requested by his/her bank. This information may be:

• the answer to a security question;
• a password previously selected by the customer;
• a code sent via text message;
• the customer’s date of birth, etc.

Once the 3D Secure code is entered and validated by the customer's bank, the order is finalized and the customer receives a message acknowledging receipt of his/her order. As authentication is specific to each bank, the customer is welcome to contact his/her bank directly regarding any questions on the subject.

Confirmation and shipment of the order will only take place after verification of the payment method and receipt of the authorization to debit the customer's card. The customer's account will be debited depending on the payment method used. In any event, if for any reason the debiting of amount owed by the customer proves to be impossible, the sale carried out through the Website will be immediately withdrawn and the processing of the purchase canceled.

The information pertaining to the order is subject to automated data processing, for which CYBERSOURCE is responsible. The purpose of this automated data processing is to determine a transaction's analysis level and to combat credit card fraud. CYBERSOURCE and GIVENCHY are the recipients of the data relating to the customer's order. The non-transmission of the data relating to the order prevents the completion and analysis of the transaction. In the event of an outstanding debt due to the fraudulent use of a bank card, the contact information in relation to the order associated with this unpaid amount shall be recorded in a payment incident file implemented by CYBERSOURCE. An irregular declaration or an anomaly may also be subject to specific processing.

In accordance with regulations on personal data protection (APPI), the customer has the right to disclosure and rectify all his/her personal data at any time by writing, via mail and with proof of identity, to GIVENCHY - Customer Service - 159, avenue Charles de Gaulle, 92521 Neuilly-Sur-Seine cedex, France.
