General Terms and Conditions for Le Duigou Beauty Consultants

Provisions for Switzerland

LE DUIGOU INTERNATIONAL AG (‘LDI’ or ‘the Company’), a company based in Switzerland, markets a range of products, including cosmetics, perfumes, accessories and skin and body care products. Independent BEAUTY-CONSULTANTS of LDI have the opportunity to purchase LDI products for personal use, to promote the sale of LDI products featured in the Swiss product catalogue, and to participate in LDI’s distribution system. The BEAUTY-CONSULTANT therefore accepts the following terms and conditions, the BEAUTY-CONSULTANT registration and agreement form, and the compensation plan (collectively, the ‘BEAUTY-CONSULTANT AGREEMENT’) as binding. To become a BEAUTY-CONSULTANT, I must be of legal age and resident in Switzerland. I am sending the signed BEAUTY-CONSULTANT Registration and Agreement Form to LDI. Partnerships, limited liability companies (GmbHs), companies limited by shares or other business entities operating under a trade name may only do so following review by and with the consent of LDI BEAUTY-CONSULTANT. As a partner or managing director, I may under no circumstances hold an interest in more than one BEAUTY-CONSULTANT company.

As an LDI BEAUTY-CONSULTANT, I acknowledge the following:

1. My relationship with the company is that of an independent, self-employed contractual partner. I am not a franchisee, joint venture partner, partner, agent or employee of LDI, nor do I act as such. I am not authorised to enter into binding commitments on behalf of LDI. As an independent entrepreneur, I am responsible for the payment of all taxes, where applicable, I am responsible for VAT and insurance premiums arising from payments received from LDI.
   
2. My remuneration is paid in accordance with the remuneration plan and is intended solely for the purchase of products for personal use or for the purchase of products intended for resale by me or my subordinate organisation to end consumers. The recruitment of ‘B2B business partners’ (partners who have their own warehouse and retail premises) is not covered by this agreement and is governed by separate terms.
   
3. The retail sale of LE DUIGOU products is permitted but is not encouraged.
   
4. I will contact LDI before attempting to sell products through retail channels so that a company representative can discuss LDI’s guidelines and the legal requirements with me.
   
5. My success depends entirely on my personal goals, the scope and quality of my work, my follow-up efforts and services, and the dedication with which I run my business.
   
6. I shall conduct my business in an ethically and legally sound manner, which includes, amongst other things, the following: No conduct that damages the good name and reputation of LDI or its affiliated companies; no misleading, deceptive or unfair sales practices; and truthful and accurate promotion and description of the products listed in the Swiss product catalogue.
   
7. I may only sell, assign or transfer my position with the written consent of LDI and in accordance with the conditions specified by LDI. Example: In the event of my death or legal incapacity, my rights and obligations as a BEAUTY-CONSULTANT shall pass to my legal successor, subject to approval by LDI, following a written application and proof of entitlement. Such approval shall not be refused provided that the successor continues to comply with the BEAUTY-CONSULTANT agreement.
   
8. Any breach of these provisions on my part may result in disciplinary measures, up to and including the termination of my relationship with the company, subject to written notice and a notice period of fourteen (14) days, or the suspension of this relationship. I may terminate my relationship with the company at any time, provided that I give written notice with a notice period of fourteen (14) days. In the event of termination, I shall, with immediate effect, cease to present myself as an LDI BEAUTY CONSULTANT and shall cease to use all of the company’s trade names and trademarks.
   
9. LDI reserves the right, at any time and at its sole discretion, to change, modify or supplement the product range, prices, specifications, packaging design and materials. Furthermore, LDI reserves the right to amend or supplement these terms and conditions, the compensation plan and any other documentation issued by LDI. Any amendments shall be automatically incorporated into the agreement between LDI and the BEAUTY-CONSULTANT upon publication or notification to the BEAUTY-CONSULTANT.
   
10. The company (LDI) may deduct any amounts I owe the company from the remuneration owed to me by the company.
    
11. A BEAUTY-CONSULTANT may return all products (including training and promotional materials, business handbooks and kits) within 30 days of purchase for a refund of the purchase price, less an amount to cover any depreciation of the product,
    
12. Should any provision of these terms and conditions prove to be unlawful, invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected.
