Converse Terms Of Sale
Please read these TERMS of Sale carefully before ordering Products online from THe CONVERSE PLATFORM. Please note that these terms of sale APPLY TO YOUR USE OF THE CONVERSE PLATFORM IN THE UNITED STATES ONLY AND include the ADDITIONAL TERMS INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE.
APPLICABILITY
You are reading these Terms of Sale (“Terms of Sale”) because you are using a Converse website, digital experience, social media platform, mobile app, or one of our other products or services, all of which are part of Converse’s Platform (“Platform”). These Terms of Sale create a legally binding agreement between you and Converse and its affiliates (which we may refer to as “Converse,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) regarding orders placed for products available on the Platform. Converse may revise these Terms of Sale without notice by posting revised Terms of Sale on its Platform. The Terms of Sale posted on the Platform at the time you place your order on the Platform will govern that purchase. Please read these terms carefully and check that the details of your order are complete and accurate before submitting your order. If you think that there is a mistake, please contact us. Converse’s Terms of Use and Privacy Policy are incorporated herein by this reference.
PLACING ORDERS ON THE PLATFORM
ELIGIBILITY TO ORDER
To place an order on the Platform, you must be of legal age in your jurisdiction of residence and a consumer - not a reseller.
NO PURCHASE FOR RESALE
The Platform is intended solely for Converse to sell Converse products directly to end consumers, and therefore purchase of products for resale is strictly prohibited. Purchase for resale means the purchase of a Converse product by someone who resells, or intends to resell, the Converse product to others (consumers, businesses or any third party). If Converse believes you are involved in purchase for resale, Converse reserves the right to take any action against you, including, without limitation, to restrict sales to you, cancel your orders, and/or suspend or close your account.
HOW TO ORDER
You need an email address to place an order, and you may need to set your browser to accept both (functional) cookies and pop-ups in order to be able to use all the functionalities of the Platform, which includes designing customized items, adding items to your shopping cart, and submitting your order.
When you submit an order, we will send you an email acknowledging receipt of your order. Our acceptance of the order takes place when the products are shipped to you - we will send you an email confirming that the products have been shipped (“Order Confirmation”). At this point a contract, containing these Terms of Sale, comes into existence and is binding on you and us (the “Contract”). We recommend that you print or download a copy of these Terms of Sale and the relevant Order Confirmation for future reference. If we are unable to supply you with a product, we will inform you of this in writing and will not process the order.
Once your order is placed, you can check on its status at any time using the Order Status link on Converse.com. Use your order number (which can be found in your confirmation email), email address and billing zip code to sign into Converse.com for up-to-date info on where your order is in the process. When your order ships, we’ll send you a shipping confirmation email with tracking information – so you can follow your shipment every step of the way. If you have a Converse Account and were logged in when you placed your order, the order information will appear within your order history in Your Account.
OUR RIGHT TO REJECT YOUR ORDER OR CANCEL A CONTRACT
Fulfillment of all orders on the Platform is subject to availability. We explicitly reserve the right not to accept your order for any reason. We also reserve the right to cancel a Contract by written notice to you in the following situations, without being liable for any damage or costs other than repayment of any amount received from you in relation to the Contract we cancelled:
• the product is not available or in stock;
• your billing information is not correct or not verifiable;
• your order is flagged by our security systems as an unusual order or an order susceptible to fraud;
• we believe you are under the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction of residence;
• we believe that you are a reseller;
• there was an error in the price displayed on the Platform;
• we could not deliver to the address provided by you;
• due to an Event Outside Our Control (see below); or
• in the event of misspelling, pricing or other errors or mistakes in the Platform information.
DATA CHECK
When you submit your order, we may run some checks on it before it is fulfilled. These checks may include verifying your address and checking for fraud. We run partly automated checks on all purchases to filter out unusual or suspect transactions, or transactions which can be identified as susceptible to fraud. Suspected fraud on the Platform will be investigated and if necessary prosecuted.
TITLE TRANSFER
The risk of loss and title for products purchased from Converse pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier.
PRICE/PAYMENT
PAYMENT METHODS
You can find the available payment methods in the Payment Options section of the Platform. We do not accept any method of payment other than those listed in this section.
PAYMENT PROCESSING
Except with respect to pre-ordered or custom products, if you pay by credit/debit card, we will deduct the amount due from your account as soon as your order leaves our warehouse. Payments can only be processed if the billing information can be verified.
PRICES AND CURRENCYThe product prices displayed on the Platform are in United States dollars and the order total will include sales tax, as applicable. Shipping rates are applied per order. Because sales tax rates and rules vary by state and local jurisdiction, we apply sales taxes based on the shipping destination of your order. You’ll see the estimated taxes in your cart during checkout, and exact taxes will be calculated and charged at the time of shipping.
YOUR TOTAL PRICE
The total price specified in the final check-out screen includes tax and shipping costs. This price will be recorded in the Order Confirmation, which we recommend you print or download for future reference. If paying by credit card, the total amount for your entire order will be reflected on your statement.
PRICE CHANGES
The prices of the products will be as displayed on the Platform. Prices may change from time to time, but changes will not affect any order which we have confirmed in an Order Confirmation.
PROMOTIONS
Promotional codes are limited in nature, void where prohibited, and may expire or discontinue with or without notice. Promotional codes may not be copied, sold, or applied to prior or future purchases. They are not redeemable for cash and are subject to cancellation or change at any time for any reason. Items eligible for promotional discounts may be limited to stock on hand.
SHIPPING & DELIVERY
DELIVERY – WHERE AND WHEN
Please refer to the Shipping & Delivery section of the Platform for dates and the available delivery times and methods.

EVENTS OUTSIDE OUR CONTROL
An Event Outside Our Control means any act or event beyond our reasonable control, including, without limitation, strike, lock-out or other industrial action by third parties, civil commotion, riot, invasion, terrorist attack or threat of terrorist attack, war (whether declared or not) or threat or preparation for war, fire, explosion, storm, flood, earthquake, subsidence, epidemic or other natural disaster, or failure of public or private telecommunications networks.
If an Event Outside Our Control takes place that affects the performance of our obligations under these Terms of Sale:
a) We will contact you as soon as reasonably possible to notify you; and
b) Our obligations under these general conditions will be suspended and the time for performance of our obligations will be extended for the duration of the Event Outside Our Control.
If the Event Outside Our Control affects our delivery of a product to you, we will arrange a new delivery date with you after the Event Outside Our Control is over. In many circumstances, you may cancel the Contract if an Event Outside Our Control takes place and you no longer wish us to provide the products. Please see your cancellation rights under the Cancellations section above.
OTHER IMPORTANT TERMS
We may transfer our rights and obligations under a Contract to another organization, but this transfer will not affect your rights or our obligations under these Terms of Sale.
You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these Terms of Sale to another person if we agree in writing.
Each of the paragraphs of this Terms of Sale operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms of Sale, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations.
If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you. We will not file a copy of the Contract between us.

4 Data Check
When you send us your order, we may run some checks on it before it is fulfilled. These checks may include verifying your address, creditworthiness, and checking for fraud. As to the latter: we run partly automated checks on all purchases to filter out unusual or suspect transactions, or transactions which can be identified as susceptible to fraud. Suspected fraud on the Website will be investigated and if necessary prosecuted. By submitting your order, you agree to this.
5 Cancellations
As you are contracting as a consumer, you have a statutory right to cancel a Contract if you change your mind for any reason. The provisions below set out your legal right to cancel. Further advice about your legal right to cancel the Contract is available from your local Citizens Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.
You may cancel the Contract at any time from the date of the Order Confirmation up to the end of the 14th day after the day of receipt of the Product by you or the person specified by you for delivery. If the Contract is for multiple Products which are delivered on separate days, you have until the end of the 14th day after the day of receipt of the last Product which is part of the order to cancel the Contract for any of the Products.
For example: if you receive an Order Confirmation on 1 January and you receive a Product on 10 January, you may cancel at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 24 January.
To cancel the Contract, you must inform us of your intention to cancel the Contract. The easiest way to do so is to complete the cancellation form available in the Schedule at the end of these Terms of Use which will also have been provided with the Order Confirmation. If you use this method Converse will email you to confirm it has received your cancellation. Alternatively, you can email us at helpme.europe@converse.com. If you send us your cancellation notice by email or by post, then your cancellation is effective from the date you send us the email or post the letter to us.
If you exercise the right, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Products in accordance with Converse’s refunds policy (set out below). When exercising the cancellation right, you must return the Products to us immediately (as set out below).
You are entitled to a reasonable opportunity to inspect the Products (which will include removing them from their packaging and trying them on). At all times, you must take reasonable care of the Products and must not let them out of your possession. If you are in breach of your obligations to take reasonable care in this paragraph, Converse will have a claim against you and may deduct from the refund costs incurred by us as a result of the breach.
Details of this statutory right, and an explanation of how to exercise it, are also provided in the Order Confirmation. This provision does not affect your statutory rights.
The cancellation right described in this paragraph is in addition to any other right that you might have to reject the Products, for instance because they are faulty or misdescribed as set out in paragraph 6 below.
6 Returns
As explained above, orders for Bespoke Products cannot be cancelled. You are however entitled to return your order in accordance with the return procedures and conditions below.
Returning orders after delivery – defectives
You are entitled to return Products (including Bespoke Products) delivered to you in the event that they are defective or otherwise do not conform to the quantity, quality, standards or description shown on your Order Confirmation when you received them. You can do so within 6 months after you notice the defect. This does not affect your statutory rights. In the event your claim is justified, the purchase price and the shipping costs will be refunded without deduction. For practical information on how to return Products, visit our help section.
Returning orders after delivery – for any other reason
If you are for whatever reason not happy with the Products you ordered, you may return the Products delivered to you within thirty (30) calendar days after delivery, without giving us any reason, as long as:
· the Products are unwashed and not used in any way (you are allowed to try garments or shoes on for fit, unless we have indicated otherwise - but you cannot wear them);
· the Product is in its original, undamaged packaging (a carefully opened package will not be considered damaged);
· the Product is complete: e.g. both items of a pair must be returned;
· the Product has not been tampered with.
7 Our Refunds Policy
When you return a Product to Converse, a refund will be issued as follows:
Right of Cancellation exercised: where you have validly returned a Product under your right of cancellation described in paragraph 5, Converse will refund the full amount paid by you for the Product, including the cost of delivery to you. Please also note that Converse is permitted by law to reduce your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of the Product, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way contrary to the conditions specified in these terms or which would not be permitted in a shop. If Converse refunds you the price paid before it was able to inspect the Product and later discovers you have handled it in an unacceptable way, you must pay Converse an appropriate amount. You will be responsible for returning the Product to Converse at your own cost. As the costs incurred by us for these return shipments are equal to the costs of sending the goods to you, we will not refund the costs you originally paid for delivery. If you have registered an account on Converse.com, you will be eligible for free return shipments.
Defective Products: where you have validly returned a Product to Converse because it is defective or for some other reason for which Converse is responsible, Converse will inspect the Product and, where that Product is defective, either repair or replace the Product or, if not possible, refund the full amount paid by you for the Product together with any applicable delivery charges and the reasonable cost incurred by you in returning the Product.
Other returns: where you have returned a Product in circumstances other than as set out above (which includes rejecting a non-defective Product outside the cancellation period), any repair, replacement or refund (in that order) will be at Converse’s discretion. If Converse does agree to provide a repair, replacement or refund, Converse will not refund the cost of delivery to you and Converse will not reimburse the cost incurred by you in returning the Product.
Converse will process any refund due to you within the deadlines below:
if you have received the Product and Converse has not offered to collect it from you: 14 days after the day on which Converse receives the Product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the Product back to us; or
if you have not received the Product or you have received it and Converse has offered to collect it from you: 14 days after you inform us of your decision to cancel the Contract.Converse will refund you using the same means of payment that you used for the transaction.
Legal ownership of a Product will immediately revert to Converse if Converse refunds any such payment to you.

11 BESPOKE PRODUCTS
For most Bespoke Products, you can submit a combination of letters, spaces and numbers to form an ID – a personalized message that appears on your creation. While we honor most IDs, we cannot honor all of them. Some may contain trade marks or intellectual property rights of third parties, or the names of certain professional sports teams, athletes or celebrities that you (or Converse) does not have the right to use. Others may contain material that we consider inappropriate or simply do not want to place on our Products. Unfortunately, at times this means that we may decline IDs that may otherwise seem unobjectionable. If your ID is, in our sole opinion, unacceptable, your order may be immediately rejected or your purchase will be cancelled at a later stage – if so, you will be notified by e-mail. Converse reserves the right to reject any ID’s after they have been submitted to Converse.
12 Consumer acknowledgements relating to customisation
Both your design of the Bespoke Product (the color combination etc) and the personalization shall be created by yourself, or, to the extent this is not the case, you hereby guarantee that you are authorised to use the design or the personalisation created by someone else.
Please understand that whilst we have the right to decline your personalisation or your design, you are solely responsible for your design and personalisation, and we have no obligation to review or decline your design and personalisation.
You agree that Converse will own all intellectual property rights in the design or personalisation of your Bespoke Products and/or ID. By submitting the design or personalisation of your Bespoke Products and/or ID to Converse, you transfer all intellectual property rights in the Bespoke Products and/or ID that automatically vest in you by operation of law to Converse. To the extent such transfer is not valid, you grant to Converse an exclusive, fully paid, perpetual, royalty free licence to use your design and personalization in the widest sense of the word, including but not limited to copy, edit, modify, publicly display, digitize, reproduce and distribute, and to sublicense (parts of) this right as we see fit.
You agree and understand that you shall have no claim against Converse or any other party in the event a design or personalization and/or ID similar to yours is used or designed. We expect you to follow the same rules in respect of the design or personalisation of your Bespoke Products and/or ID that apply to User Generated Content as set out in paragraph 16a below.SECTION B: WEBSITE TERMS OF USE

Supply Chain Disclosure
The California Transparency in Supply Chains Act requires us to disclose our efforts to eradicate slavery and human trafficking from our direct supply chains. We take seriously the federal and international efforts to end all kinds of forced labour – whether in the form of prison labour, indentured labour, bonded labour, human trafficking or otherwise – through standards set forth in our Code of Conduct, originally established by Nike, and subsequently adopted by our affiliated companies, including the section “Employment is Voluntary”.
Supply Chain Verification.
Our policy is to evaluate potential contracted factories before they enter our supply chain to assess compliance with standards including country-related risk for issues including forced labour, human trafficking and slavery. We use both internal and external third-party audits.
Supplier Audits.
We monitor contracted factories’ adherence to our standards through internal and external audits, as well as independent, third-party audits through the Fair Labour Association. Each year we monitor a subset of our contract factories base.
Direct Suppliers’ Certification of Materials.
We are working on mapping and understanding impacts further up the supply chain, to develop standards for upstream suppliers of our contracted manufacturers.
Standards for Compliance.
If a contracted factory is found to violate laws or our standards, it is responsible for improving performance against a master action plan. If the factory fails to make progress against that plan, they are subject to review and sanctions, including potential termination.
Training.
Employees and management with direct responsibility for supply chain management are provided training on forced labour, including human trafficking and slavery.
For more information on the Code of Conduct and the Employment is Voluntary Code Leadership Standard, please look online.

TRIMAN RECYCLING LOGO
Since January 1st 2015, Triman is a new legal label for recyclable products (see image), requires that all those who place into the French market various types of recyclable products subject to a separate waste collection (according to the French “Responsabilité élargie du Producteur” (REP) system), shall inform the consumer about the need to deliver their products to a separate collection.
Various types of products fall under the Triman label: for example different kinds of packaging, apparel and textiles products, household linens, footwear and paper products. Some Converse products also fall under the Triman label, in which case, the Triman label will be displayed with the product information.
Please check www.lafibredutri.fr for more information on sorting instructions for textiles, linen and footwear. The nearest French collection/sorting point can be found here as well.
