The Customer acknowledges and agrees therefore that the items can only be purchased in quantities reflecting average consumer needs, both in terms of the number of items ordered in one order and the number of individual Orders respecting the usual amount an average consumer places for the same product. Sandro reserves the right to refuse to fulfill an order clearly validated by a professional retail Customer.
All Customers are informed of the lack of reliability of the Internet, especially in terms of relative security in data transmission, continuity in unsecured access to the Site, non-guaranteed performance in terms of the volume and speed of data transmission and virus propagation.
Sandro warns each Customer of the need to implement on his/her computer, portable or mobile solution any security measures likely to prevent the spread of viruses.
As the TOS are the subject of modifications, the applicable conditions are those in effect on the Site on the day the order is placed.

During the creation of a Customer Account, the Customer enters his/her email address and chooses their password.
If the email address is already assigned, the system prompts a message to choose another. Passwords are personal and confidential. The Customer is solely responsible for them.
The Customer undertakes to keep his/her password secret and to not disclose it under any context and for any reason whatsoever.
If it is suspected that a username and password has been used by a third party, the Customer must immediately alert Sandro to change his/her password and/or choose to close his/her account.

- lack of payment for one or several past Orders,
- abuse, unfair or fraudulent use of the Order service provided on the Site or failure to respect any of the Customer's obligations set out in the TOS.
In this case, Sandro will send an email to the Customer concerned, via the address communicated by the latter during the creation of his/her customer account, informing the deactivation of his/her username and password and the closing of the account.
Generally speaking, the Customer is informed of the fact that his/her account may be closed following the first request of the Customer issued by email to Sandro.
