Terms of sale
Welcome to Side Street ! The terms “we”, “us”, “our” and Side Street" refer to "Thomas Barbieri". Side Street operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products and services in order to provide you, the customer, with a curated shopping experience (the “Services”). Side Street is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you.
The below terms and conditions, together with any policies referenced herein (these “Terms of Service” or “Terms”) describe your rights and responsibilities when you use the Services.
Please read these Terms of Service carefully, as they include important information about your legal rights and cover areas such as warranty disclaimers and limitations of liability.
By visiting, interacting with or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service or Privacy Policy, you should not use or access our Services.
SECTION 1 - ACCESS AND ACCOUNT
By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state or province of residence, and you have given us your consent to allow any of your minor dependents to use the Services on devices you own, purchase or manage.
To use the Services, including accessing or browsing our online stores or purchasing any of the products or services we offer, you may be asked to provide certain information, such as your email address, billing, payment, and shipping information. You represent and warrant that all the information you provide in our stores is correct, current and complete and that you have all rights necessary to provide this information.
You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all of your account activity. You may not transfer, sell, assign, or license your account to any other person.
SECTION 2 - OUR PRODUCTS
Side Street offers original, handmade artistic sculptures produced in limited, numbered, and signed editions. Each artwork is crafted manually, which may result in slight variations in shape, color, texture, or finish from one piece to another and from the photographs displayed on the website.
These variations are inherent to the artisanal and artistic nature of the works and do not constitute defects. Product photographs and descriptions are provided for illustrative purposes only and aim to represent the artistic intent as faithfully as possible.
All artworks are intended for decorative purposes only and are not toys. Due to their handcrafted nature, the artworks may be fragile and can break if dropped or improperly handled.
SECTION 3 - ORDERS
When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase. Side Street reserves the right to accept or decline your order for any reason at its discretion. Your order is not accepted until Side Street confirms acceptance. We must receive and process your payment before your order is accepted. Please review your order carefully before submitting, as Side Street may be unable to accommodate cancellation requests after an order is accepted. In the event that we do not accept, make a change to, or cancel an order, we will attempt to notify you by contacting the e‑mail, billing address, and/or phone number provided at the time the order was made.
Your purchases are subject to return or exchange solely in accordance with our Refund Policy [LINK].
You represent and warrant that your purchases are for your own personal or household use and not for commercial resale.
SECTION 4 - PRICES AND BILLING
Prices, discounts and promotions are subject to change without notice. The price charged for a product or service will be the price in effect at the time the order is placed and will be set out in your order confirmation email. Unless otherwise expressly stated, posted prices do not include taxes, shipping, handling, customs or import charges.
Prices posted in our online stores may be different from prices offered in physical stores or in online or other stores operated by third parties. We may offer, from time to time, promotions on the Services that may affect pricing and that are governed by terms and conditions separate from these Terms. If there is a conflict between the terms for a promotion and these Terms, the promotion terms will govern.
You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase, payment and account information for all purchases made at our stores. You agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address, credit card numbers and expiration dates, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed.
You represent and warrant that (i) the credit card information you provide is true, correct, and complete, (ii) you are duly authorized to use such credit card for the purchase, (iii) charges incurred by you will be honored by your credit card company, and (iv) you will pay charges incurred by you at the posted prices, including shipping and handling charges and all applicable taxes, if any.
SECTION 5 - SHIPPING AND DELIVERY
Artworks are carefully packaged to ensure safe transport and shipped via reliable carriers such as La Poste (Colissimo), DHL, or FedEx, depending on the destination.
For deliveries within the European Union, the risk of loss or damage remains with Side Street until the artwork is delivered to the customer.
For deliveries outside the European Union, the risk of loss or damage transfers to the customer upon delivery, subject to applicable local laws.
Any customs duties, import taxes, or additional fees applicable to international shipments are the sole responsibility of the buyer.
SECTION 6 - DAMAGED ITEMS UPON DELIVERY
Customers are required to inspect their artwork immediately upon delivery.
In the event that an artwork arrives damaged, the customer must contact Side Street by email within 48 hours of receipt, providing clear photographic evidence of the damage and the original packaging.
Upon validation of the claim, Side Street will offer, at its discretion, either a replacement artwork (subject to availability) or a refund. No return, refund, or replacement will be accepted without prior contact by email and photographic proof.
SECTION 7 - RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL
In accordance with Article L221-28 of the French Consumer Code, the right of withdrawal does not apply to artworks that are handmade, produced in limited editions, signed and numbered, and whose nature makes them unique artistic creations.
Consequently, no withdrawal or return is accepted except in the case of damage upon delivery, under the conditions described above.
SECTION 8 - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
All artworks, sculptures, designs, visuals, photographs, texts, logos, and content presented on the Side Street website are protected by copyright and intellectual property laws.
The sculptures sold by Side Street are original artistic works. The purchase of an artwork does not transfer any intellectual property rights, including copyright or reproduction rights, to the buyer.
Any reproduction, representation, modification, distribution, or use of the artworks or website content for commercial or non-commercial purposes, without prior written consent from Side Street, is strictly prohibited.
Buyers are authorized to display the purchased artwork for personal, private, and decorative purposes only. Any other use, including reproduction, resale of reproductions, or commercial exploitation, is not permitted without explicit authorization.

SECTION 17 - DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
Side Street provides artworks as original artistic creations. Except as expressly stated in these Terms, the artworks are provided “as is” and “as available.”

We will notify you of any indemnifiable claim, provided that a failure to promptly notify will not relieve you of your obligations unless you are materially prejudiced. We may control the defense and settlement of such claim at your expense, including choice of counsel, but will not settle any claim requiring non-monetary obligations from you without your consent (not to be unreasonably withheld). You will cooperate in the defense of indemnified claims, including by providing relevant documents.
