Terms of Use

Terms of Use

Updated 11/09/2026

1. Purpose and acceptance

These terms of use (the "Terms of Use") set out the rules for accessing and using the jdm-distribution.fr website (the "Site"), published by JDM Distribution (see the legal notice). They apply to anyone who visits the Site (the "User"), and in particular to holders of a business account.

Browsing the Site implies acceptance of the Terms of Use. The User expressly accepts them when creating a business account and with each order. Sales are governed by the terms and conditions of sale, of which these Terms of Use form an integral part; for anything relating to an order, the terms and conditions of sale prevail.

2. A site for professionals only

The Site is intended exclusively for professionals acting for the purposes of their business. The catalogue can be browsed freely; prices, ordering and the related services (pallet storage, shipments on behalf of the business customer, customs documents) are reserved for holders of a business account.

Registration requires accurate and up-to-date information about the company (company name, registration number, VAT number, address, telephone) and, where applicable, supporting documents. JDM Distribution may check this information, request additional documents, and refuse or suspend a registration that does not correspond to a business activity.

3. Account and login details

The account login and password are personal and confidential. The account holder is responsible for keeping them safe and for any use of the account, in particular orders placed with its login details. In the event of loss, theft or unauthorised use, the holder changes the password and informs JDM Distribution without delay at [email protected].

The User keeps its account information up to date. The details shown on invoices (company name, SIREN, VAT number, billing address) can only be changed through customer service, on presentation of supporting documents (terms and conditions of sale, Article 5.4).

4. Rules of use

The User uses the Site fairly and for its intended purpose. In particular, the User shall not:

  • systematically extract or reuse all or part of the catalogue, prices or content of the Site, by robot or any other automated means, outside the interfaces that JDM Distribution provides for this purpose;
  • compromise the security or operation of the Site: intrusion, circumvention of access or price controls, mass requests, distribution of malicious code;
  • create an account in the name of another company or provide inaccurate information;
  • use the Site's forms for unsolicited messages or for unlawful, offensive or misleading content.

In the event of a breach, JDM Distribution may suspend or close the account after informing the User, except in cases of urgency or fraud. Orders in progress remain governed by the terms and conditions of sale.

5. Uploaded files

When the User uploads a file to the Site (logo, invoice intended for its customer, registration document), it warrants that it holds the rights to it, that its content is accurate and lawful, and that it contains no virus or active element. Files uploaded for registration and for shipments are scanned by an antivirus; they may be refused or deleted if they do not meet these conditions or the limits stated at the time of upload.

Files are used solely for the purpose for which they were uploaded: the business customer's logo and invoice, for example, are used only for the documents and parcels of its shipments. The User authorises JDM Distribution to reproduce them for this sole purpose and for the necessary period. Their retention periods are stated in Article 8.8 of the terms and conditions of sale and in the personal data protection charter.

6. Intellectual property and links

The Site, its structure, texts, databases and software, as well as the trademarks and logos of JDM Distribution, are protected by intellectual property law. Product photographs, visuals, descriptions and trademarks belong to their manufacturers or rights holders.

Any reproduction, representation or extraction, in whole or in part, without the prior written authorisation of JDM Distribution or the rights holder is prohibited (Articles L.335-2, L.342-1 and L.713-2 of the French Intellectual Property Code). The use of product visuals and descriptions by a business customer is governed by Article 12 of the terms and conditions of sale.

A link to the Site may be created freely, provided that it does not cause confusion as to the origin of the content and does not display it within another website. JDM Distribution may request the removal of a link that is detrimental to it.

7. Third-party sites and content

The Site contains links to other websites (manufacturers, carriers, payment service providers) and may include third-party content such as videos. JDM Distribution does not control these sites and content and is not responsible for them; they are subject to their own terms of use and privacy policies. Third-party content that places cookies is loaded only with the User's consent, collected through the cookie banner.

8. Availability and liability

JDM Distribution endeavours to make the Site available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, without any obligation of result. Access may be suspended, in particular for maintenance or updates, or in the event of a technical incident or force majeure, without notice or compensation.

The information on the Site (descriptions, compatibility, availability, lead times) is given for information only and may change at any time; only the information confirmed when ordering binds JDM Distribution, under the terms and conditions of sale. JDM Distribution is not liable for indirect damage related to the use of the Site or the inability to access it. It is the User's responsibility to protect its equipment and data, in particular against viruses.

9. Personal data and cookies

Personal data collected on the Site is processed in accordance with the personal data protection charter, which also describes the cookies used. The User may change its choices at any time using the cookie management link at the bottom of the page.

10. Changes, governing law and contact

JDM Distribution may amend the Terms of Use at any time; the applicable version is the one published on the Site, dated at the top of the page. The Terms of Use are drawn up in French; in the event of any discrepancy with a translation, the French version prevails.

The Terms of Use are governed by French law. Any dispute relating to their interpretation or performance falls within the jurisdiction of the courts of Bordeaux (France), subject to mandatory rules to the contrary.
