MAISON 21G will store a record of your transactions for as long as necessary to perform the services and comply with its legal obligations.

Once your order has been placed, you will receive an email acknowledging the details of your order. This email is not an acceptance of your order, it is a confirmation that we have received it.

Unless cancelled, acceptance of your order will be perfected upon completion of the packing of your order by us.
