2. Changes to the Terms of Service and Programme

 

Coty reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to modify or replace the Terms of Service, in whole or in part, at any time. Coty will use reasonable efforts to notify users who register for the Service (“Members”) of any material change at least thirty (30) days in advance of the effective date of any change. Change notices may be communicated by posting an updated version of the Terms of Service on the Site in connection with the Programme and, at the discretion of Coty, by electronic mail. In any case, Members should periodically check the Terms of Service for changes. Members are responsible for being and remaining knowledgeable as to these Terms of Service.

 

Coty may in its sole and absolute discretion cancel, change, suspend, or modify any aspect of the Service (including eligibility, the Programme, Rewards, and/or Points, each as defined herein), including the availability of any Rewards (defined below), at any time, even though changes may affect the value of Points, status levels, or Rewards already accumulated. Any such changes, cancellation, suspension or modification will be posted on the Site on the rewards page (the “Rewards Page”). For the avoidance of doubt, changes may include updates to the calculation of loyalty rewards points (“Points”). Always check these Terms of Service, as well as the Rewards Page and FAQ page, for the most up-to-date information on the calculation of Points.

 

Continued use of the Service, participation in the Programme, access to the Service and/or redemption of Points following such notice of any change to the Terms of Service constitutes Member's acceptance of those changes.

 

3. Membership Eligibility

 

You must be of the age of majority in your place of residence (e.g., at least eighteen (18) years of age in the United States, at least sixteen (16) in the UK or France) to participate in the Service. If you do not so qualify, you are prohibited from accessing, using and registering for the Service. Coty or its affiliates may also have similar customer programmes for different brands. Membership in the Programme does not confer any rights or benefits in the program of any other programme and Rewards and Points are not transferrable between such programs.

 

Employees, officers, directors, agents and representatives of Coty are eligible to be Members but may be excluded from certain promotions, experiences, and other Rewards. You cannot participate in the Programme if it would violate your employer’s policies or any of your contractual relationships. The Programme is provided to individuals only for their personal use. Corporations, associations or other groups may not participate in the Programme. It is fraudulent for any individual or company, association, or group to direct, encourage, or allow individuals to use a single Rewards account for the purpose of accumulating Points for combined use.

 

Please note that the above eligibility criteria are subject to change, so if you are currently not eligible to participate in the Programme, please check back with us frequently to see if the Programme has become available to you.

 

4. Member Registration

 

Individuals may join the Programme either on the Site or in Store (as defined below). To become a Member, each individual must complete the registration process for an account (the “Account”) by providing Coty (either via the Site or our Store staff) with current, complete and accurate information, as more specifically required by the then current registration procedures as set forth on the Rewards Page. No purchase is necessary to obtain membership in the Programme and create an Account, provided that you will not have a Tier Level (as defined below) if you do not make any purchases and, thus, not be eligible to redeem any Rewards. We prohibit registration of, and you agree that you will not register to be a Member, for anyone other than yourself.

 

Each Member is solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their access credentials and other Account information and will be solely liable for any and all activities under its Account. Members shall be responsible for keeping all account information up-to-date. Members agree to

notify Coty immediately of any unauthorized use of Member's account or any other breach of security.

 

Memberships may not be sold or otherwise transferred. We have the right to cancel or suspend your registration for Membership for any reason or for no reason at any time, as determined in our sole discretion.

 

5. How Points are Accumulated

 

Members earn and accumulate Points under their Account after registration of and while maintaining membership to the Programme by making qualifying purchases in the Territory (i) on the Site, or (ii) in owned and operated Orveda Maison stores (the “Stores”) (i.e., not through multi-brand retailers that sell Orveda) (“Qualifying Purchase”). For the avoidance of doubt, Points from Qualifying Purchases via any of the aforementioned mediums will all count toward a Member’s Account.

 

Once a specific Tier Level has been reached, this Tier Level and the associated Rewards are valid for a period of twelve (12) months, provided that such twelve (12) month period will restart upon each new purchase. To reach a new Tier Level, the requisite number of Points must be achieved by Qualifying Purchases. Once the applicable twelve (12) month period has ended, a Member’s Tier Level will be recalculated. For the avoidance of doubt, a member may remain at the same Tier Level upon recalculation. All time and date calculations for the Programme, including the day a purchase is made, are based on the Central European Time (CET) zone.

Each Member will belong to one of three (3) membership tiers (“Tier Level”) based on the total amount of Points accumulated from Qualifying Purchases during a twelve (12) month period:

 

Enthusiast tier: Members who have made Qualifying Purchases to accumulate between 1 to 999 points within the applicable twelve (12) month period.

Insider Tier: Members who have made Qualifying Purchases to accumulate between 1000 to 2999 points within the applicable twelve (12) month period;

Ambassador Tier: Members who have made Qualifying Purchases to accumulate more than 3000 points within the applicable twelve (12) month period.

General information about the Tier Levels can be found on the Rewards Page and your Tier Level will show in your Account information. Members will move Tier Levels (either to a higher Tier Level or lower Tier Level) based on Qualifying Purchases made during the current annual period.

For individuals who made a purchase on the Site prior to the 12th of June 2024, if you create an Account within six (6) months from such date, your initial Tier Level will be determined by your total purchase history on the Site from the 19th of April 2018 through to the date of Account creation, provided that if you create an Account after such six (6) month period, your Tier Level will be determined solely based on your purchases on the Site or in Orveda Stores in the twelve (12) months prior to Account creation.

 

 

Points are not valid unless earned in strict compliance with the relevant requirements, and Member shall not attempt to earn Points by any means (including without limitation, by using any script, bot or other automated means) that only simulates compliance with the applicable requirements.

Points will be posted and credited to your Account on the Site when each applicable Qualifying Purchase ships or is purchased in store.

 

Points will be calculated based on the currency used for each purchase. Please refer to the current conversion rates below. Coty reserves the right to update these conversion rates at any time.

100 points = 100 USD

100 points = 91 EUR

100 points = 83 GBP

100 points = 105 CHF

100 points = 687 CNY

 

Please note that while Orveda strives for accuracy, the conversion of loyalty points is done using approximate values due to the currency value variation. Orveda reserves the right to review and adjust the conversion process as needed. The final determination of points conversion and allocation is at the discretion of the company.

 

6. Rewards

 

Each Tier Level allows Members to be eligible on the Site or in Store for specific, then-available Member rewards (the “Rewards”). Current Rewards offered are available on the Rewards Page. Orveda concierge may also reach out to Members to let them know about available Rewards and how to redeem.

 

You understand and acknowledge that the terms and availability of Rewards may change at any time or from time to time, may be available for limited times, and are subject to change.

 

Coty reserves the right to suspend, terminate, withdraw, revalue or modify, without liability to Members, all or part of the redemption values of Points or other Rewards available in connection with registering for, accumulating, or redeeming Rewards in the Programme. Notice of such changes will be made in accordance with Section 2. Coty reserves the rights to adjudicate all Points discrepancies or inquiries in its sole discretion, and Members agree to abide with any such adjudication. Coty additionally reserves the right to adjust a Member’s account balance if Points were deposited in error.

 

7. Points Generally

Member acknowledges and agrees that:

  • Points have no "real world" or cash value.
  • In calculating Points from Qualifying Purchases, shipping, taxes, and purchases made with gift cards are excluded.
  • Points have no purpose or use except in exchange for Rewards (if any) offered by Coty.
  • Any items, benefits or privileges received as a result of a redemption of Rewards may not be exchanged or returned for cash or credit.
  • Rewards may be time-limited and/or available only in limited quantities.
  • Rewards for tangible items are while supplies last and provided on a first-come, first-served basis.
  • Points earned for a purchase that is then the subject of a return, refund, returned check due to non-sufficient funds, or other credit will (i) be deducted from the Member's account in an amount equal to the Points earned for the original transaction, including bonus Points or (ii) not be posted to the Member’s account, as applicable.
  • Points cannot be redeemed by, or sold, assigned, or otherwise transferred to, any other Member of this Programme or any other individual.
  • Upon termination of Member's registration for any reason, all Points are lost, to the extent permitted by law, regardless of how they were acquired by Member.
  • Coty's good faith determination of the amount of Points available to any Member hereunder shall be final and binding, and Coty shall not be liable for any improper denial of a Point accrual or Reward.

 

8. Expiration of Rewards Due to Inactivity

 

Once you register for the Programme, if our records indicate that you have not made any Qualifying Purchases within any rolling twelve (12) month period, you will be moved down a Tier Level (unless you are already at the lowest Tier Level). Any rewards available in connection with the previous Tier Level will also be forfeited. It is your responsibility to monitor your Programme account, Tier Level, and activity status.

 

If you have questions regarding the date of your last Qualifying Purchase, you may call 1-833-767-8332 or emailing concierge@orveda.com.

 

9. Posts, Content or Other Statements Made by You in Connection with the Programme: Disclosure of Material Connections

 

Coty believes in full transparency and in full, fair and effective disclosures of material facts relating to Member’s relationship with Coty.

 

If you receive any compensation from Coty in exchange for promoting Coty and/or its products or otherwise making public statements (including on social media and regardless of whether in text, audio or video) relating to Coty, its affiliates and/or its products or programmes, you are required to make clear and conspicuous disclosures of this material connection. Compensation may include the receipt of free product, special access or privileges, Points, discounts and/or other monetary or non-monetary incentives.

Coty shall be the sole determiner in cases of suspected abuse, fraud, or breach of these Terms of Service or intent of these Terms of Service.

If any Member wishes to terminate its registration and Account, Members may do so at any time by sending an email to concierge@orveda.com including the Member's electronic mail address and specifying which account the termination applies.
