Payment and Delivery

You have a legal obligation to pay for any orders indicated to be made by you. In order to complete an order through the website, you may be required to provide certain information that is required to process your order. For example, you will be required to provide valid payment information (e.g. a valid credit card number and expiration date) to facilitate payment of your order.

Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts on the website are in Canadian Dollars.

We reserve the right, in our sole and absolute discretion, to change the permitted methods of payment, including without limitation, the credit cards and/or other types of payment options we are able to accept, at any time. If complete payment for your order is not received and verified by us, your order will not be processed.

A hold will be placed on your credit card at the time the order is placed. Once the order has been reviewed, approved and processed, the hold will be released and your card will be charged. You will be responsible for all applicable taxes related to your order. Applicable taxes will be charged at the time you are billed. Applicable sales tax will also be applied to the shipping and handling, return shipping and gift packaging or other charges.

Please note that adding an item or items to your shopping cart (“Cart”) does not reserve such item(s) for you or guarantee that you will be able to purchase such item(s) at a later date. An item can sell out while it is sitting in your Cart. If an item was removed from your Cart, this may mean that we have sold out prior to you completing your Order. We reserve the right, in our sole and absolute discretion, to change the prices offered on the website at any time, including without limitation, items that have been placed in your Cart.

Delivery

The estimated delivery time will be specified when you place your order. However, as we use a third party to ship purchases, your order may arrive before or after the expected date. The estimated delivery time will also depend on product availability and on the shipment destination.

Multiple orders may not always be shipped together. Depending on our product availability and on the size of your order, we reserve the right to divide the delivery of your order into partial shipments. Thus, you may receive several shipments to complete your order.

Purchases will only be shipped to a valid mailing address recognized by the third party shipping company. We do not ship outside of Canada. In the event we are not able to ship to the shipping address you provide, we will notify you to obtain an alternate eligible shipping address. Otherwise, your order will be cancelled, and you will receive a refund in respect of your purchase.

All your personal data is strictly confidential and will only be accessible, on a need-to-know basis, to duly authorized personnel of La Difference Time Centre and other third-party providers acting on our behalf with appropriate physical, technical and organizational security safeguards.

La Difference Time Centre has implemented security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, use and disclosure. We follow appropriate security procedures in the storage and disclosure of your personal data to prevent unauthorized access by third parties and to prevent your data being accidentally lost or deleted. We limit those who access your personal data to those who have a genuine business need to access it.

We also have procedures in place to deal with any suspected data security breach. We will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected data security breach where we are legally required to do so.

We require those parties to whom we transfer your personal data to comply with the above security measures. However, unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. So, we cannot ensure the security of your personal data transmitted by you to us via the internet. Any such transmission is at your own risk and you acknowledge and agree that we shall not be responsible for any unauthorized use, distribution, damage or destruction of your personal data, except to the extent we are required to accept such responsibility under applicable law. Once we have received your personal data, we will use the security measures described above to safeguard such information.

The security of your personal data is important to us, so please contact us immediately should you become aware of any incident involving the loss or unauthorized access to or disclosure of your personal data that is in our custody or control. You agree, at your own risk, to keep the username and password for your Digital Platform customer account confidential and never to disclose them to third parties. In case of loss, theft or unauthorized use of your username or password, you agree to immediately notify us using the contact information set out below.
