In the event that the Beauty Services cannot be provided on the dates and times requested by the Buyer, he/she will be offered other availability for the Beauty Services concerned, the reservation only being effective once he/she has confirmed his/her availability and a date and time have been set.

The Buyer will receive an email confirming the booking, the date and time when the Beauty Services will be provided, the name of the beneficiary, and the essential elements of the order.

The Buyer can purchase through the websites www.thenailbar.ch and www.thebrowbar.ch Gift Certificates allowing their beneficiary to benefit from a Beauty Service.

The Beauty Services concerned for each Gift Certificate from The Nail Bar or The Brow Bar are described in detail on the websites. It is the responsibility of the Buyer to read the description of the Beauty Services concerned on the websites.

The Gift Certificates are individualised by a unique identifier secured by means of "QR CODE" technology and can be used by their beneficiary at any time (after reservation and subject to availability) for a period of twelve months from their date of issue.

Recipients of The Nail Bar or The Brow Bar Gift Certificates may exchange the Beauty Services indicated in their The Nail Bar or The Brow Bar Gift Certificates for any other Beauty Services offered by The Nail Bar or The Brow Bar shops at the same price conditions, except for offers of a promotional nature (and therefore limited in time).

The Nail Bar or The Brow Bar Gift Vouchers can only be used in The Nail Bar or The Brow Bar shops and only to benefit from the Beauty Services. They may not be used in any way as consideration for the supply of products or services other than the Beauty Services. The Nail Bar or The Brow Bar gift vouchers cannot be reimbursed in cash.

At the end of the three year period (36 month) from the date of issue of The Nail Bar or The Brow Bar Gift Certificate, it will lose all validity and can no longer be used; the price will remain with The Nail Company SA. No Beauty Services will be provided for The Nail Bar or The Brow Bar Gift Certificates that have expired.

The Nail Bar or The Brow Bar Gift Certificates will indicate the details of the Beauty Services concerned, the specific Establishment providing them, and the name of the beneficiary. The Nail Bar or The Brow Bar Gift Certificates may be used by the recipient to obtain the relevant Beauty Services at any time during the time periods specified in the Beauty Services Offer during their period of validity.

Recipients of The Nail Bar or The Brow Bar Gift Certificates should make their reservation through the websites, in order to verify the validity of the Gift Certificates concerned.

The booking mechanism will then be the same as described in clause 1.2 above.

3. Changing a booking

All PROMOTION bookings are non-changeable and non-refundable.

The Buyer or Beneficiary who has modified a booking via the websites www.thenailbar.ch and www.thebrowbar.ch will receive a confirmation by email indicating the modified date and time.

Any Beauty Service booked that has not been modified in accordance with the conditions set out in this article shall be deemed to have been validly provided, even if the purchaser or beneficiary has not turned up, which the purchaser expressly acknowledges and accepts. Thus, the fact of not having shown up at the reserved appointment cannot be the object of any reimbursement.

In case of late arrival for an appointment booked online, the Beauty Service may be reduced by a shorter service, in proportion to the delay. In no way can the missed appointment time be taken at another time of day or postponed to another day. In these cases, the reduction of the service time or the modification of the service will not be subject to a partial or total refund.
