1. Scope of application
These general terms and conditions of sale (hereinafter "T&Cs") govern all sales concluded via the Pretty-Map website (hereinafter "the Site"), operated by Pretty Map - Jaquier, based in Switzerland (hereinafter "we", "our" or "Pretty-Map").
Any order placed on the Site implies full and unconditional acceptance of these T&Cs by the customer (hereinafter "the Customer"). If the Customer does not accept these terms, they are invited not to use the Site or the services offered.
2. Products and services
Pretty-Map offers the creation and sale of custom maps and posters, printed or digital, produced from the information provided by the Customer during the order process.
Each product is made to order according to the choices made by the Customer (location, format, orientation, colours, texts, graphic options, etc.).
The visuals presented on the Site are provided for illustrative purposes. Minor rendering differences (colours, contrasts, proportions) may exist between the on-screen preview and the final product, due in particular to screen settings or printing constraints.
3. Legal capacity
The Customer certifies being at least 18 years old or having the authorisation of a legal guardian, and having the legal capacity to enter into a contract.
The Customer is responsible for the accuracy of the information they provide when using the Site and when placing an order.
4. Order process
An order is confirmed when the Customer:
- selects the product characteristics,
- reviews the order summary,
- accepts these T&Cs,
- completes payment.
Once an order is confirmed, it is generally no longer possible to modify or cancel it, as the product quickly enters personalised production.
Any modification request after confirmation must be sent as quickly as possible to our support team. We will do our best to accommodate it, without guarantee.
5. Prices
Prices are shown in Swiss francs (CHF), including all applicable taxes, unless otherwise stated.
Delivery costs, where applicable, are shown separately during the order process.
Pretty-Map reserves the right to change its prices at any time. The price charged is the one in effect at the time of the order.
6. Payment
The Site uses secure payment solutions compliant with market standards (SSL certificate).
Payments can be made via:
- credit or debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express),
- secure payment platforms such as Stripe or PayPal.
Pretty-Map has no access at any time to the Customer's banking data, which is processed exclusively by the payment providers.
7. Delivery
7.1 Printed products
Printed products are prepared and shipped manually and individually. Delivery times and costs vary depending on the destination and are shown during the order process.

7.2 Digital products

No return or refund will be granted for:
- an error made by the Customer during personalisation (location, text, format, colours, etc.),
- a change of mind after the order is confirmed.
8.2 Defective or damaged products
In the event of a product damaged in transit or showing a printing error attributable to Pretty-Map, the Customer must contact our support team within 14 days of receiving the product, providing evidence (photos).
Depending on the case, we will offer a replacement or a refund. Pretty-Map reserves the right to review each request before confirming.
