2° When the contract provides for the continuous supply of digital content or a digital service for a period of more than two years, the seller is liable for any lack of conformity of this digital content or this digital service which appears during the period during which it is provided under the contract.
For such goods, the applicable deadline does not deprive the consumer of his right to updates in accordance with the provisions of Article L. 217-19.
The seller also responds, during the same periods, for lack of conformity resulting from the packaging, the assembly instructions, or the installation when this has been charged to him by the contract or has been carried out under his responsibility. , or when the incorrect installation, carried out by the consumer as provided for in the contract, is due to gaps or errors in the installation instructions provided by the seller.
This warranty period applies without prejudice to Articles 2224 and following of the frenc Civil Code. The starting point for the prescription of the consumer's action is the day of knowledge by the latter of the lack of conformity. »
Article L 217-4 of the French Consumer Code:
“The good complies with the contract if it complies in particular, the following criteria where applicable,:
1° It corresponds to the description, type, quantity and quality, in particular with regard to functionality, compatibility, interoperability, or any other characteristic listed in the contract;

Article L 217-5 of the French Consumer Code:

2° Where applicable, it has the qualities that the seller presented to the consumer in the form of a sample or model, before the conclusion of the contract;
3° Where applicable, the digital elements it contains are provided according to the most recent version available at the time of the conclusion of the contract, unless the parties agree otherwise;
4° Where applicable, it is delivered with all the accessories, including the packaging, and the installation instructions that the consumer can legitimately expect;

II.-However, the seller is not bound by any public declarations mentioned in the preceding paragraph if he demonstrates:
1° That he did not know them and was not legitimately in a position to know them;
2° That at the time of the conclusion of the contract, the public declarations had been rectified under conditions comparable to the initial declarations; Where
3° That the public declarations could not have influenced the purchase decision.
III.-The consumer may not dispute conformity by invoking a defect concerning one or more particular characteristics of the goods, of which he has been specifically informed that they deviate from the conformity criteria set out in this article, a deviation to which he has expressly and separately consented upon conclusion of the contract. »
Article L217-7 of the French Consumer Code:
"The defects of conformity which appear within twenty-four months from the date of receiving the products, including products containing digital elements, are, unless proven otherwise, presumed to exist. at the time of delivery, unless this presumption is incompatible with the nature of the product or the defect invoked.
For second-hand goods, this period is set at twelve months.

1° During a period of two years from the delivery of the goods, when the contract provides for this supply for a period less than or equal to two years or when the contract does not determine the duration of the supply;
2° During the period during which the digital content or the digital service is supplied under the contract, when the latter provides for this supply for a period of more than two years. »
Article L217-28 of the French Consumer Code:
"When the consumer asks the guarantor, during the course of the legal guarantee or the commercial guarantee which was granted during the acquisition or repair of a good, a repair covered by this guarantee, any period of immobilization suspends the guarantee which remained to run until the delivery of the repaired property.
This period runs from the consumer's request for intervention or the provision for repair or replacement of the good in question, if this starting point proves to be more favorable to the consumer.
The warranty period is also suspended when the consumer and the guarantor enter into negotiations with a view to an amicable settlement. »
When acting as a legal guarantee of conformity, the Customer:
- benefits from a period of two years from the delivery of the Product to act against the Company as a seller;
- is entitled to the repair or replacement of the Product, or, failing that, to the reduction of the price, or to the resolution of the contract subject to the conditions provided for by articles L.217-8 and following of the Consumer Code) ;
- is exempted from providing proof of the existence of the lack of conformity of the Product during the 2 years following the delivery of the Product.
The legal guarantee of conformity applies independently of any commercial guarantee granted. It is reminded that the Customer can decide to implement the guarantee against hidden defects of the thing sold within the meaning of article 1641 of the French Civil Code and that in this case, he can choose between the resolution of the sale or a reduction of the sale price in accordance with article 1644 of the Civil Code.
Products :
The consumer has a period of two years from the delivery of the goods to enforce the legal warranty of conformity in the event of the appearance of a lack of conformity. During this period, the consumer is only required to establish the existence of the lack of conformity and not the date of its appearance.
When the sales contract provides for the continuous supply of digital content or a digital service for a period of more than two years, the legal guarantee shall apply to this digital content or this digital service throughout the period of supply provided. During this period, the consumer is only required to establish the existence of the lack of conformity affecting the digital content or the digital service and not the date of its appearance.
The legal guarantee of conformity entails an obligation on the part of the trader, where applicable, to provide any updates necessary to maintain the conformity of the goods.
The legal guarantee of conformity gives to the consumer the right to repair or replace the goods within thirty days of his request, free of charge and without major inconvenience for him.
If the goods are repaired, the consumer benefits from a six-month extension of the initial guarantee.
If the consumer requests the repair of the goods, but the seller imposes a replacement, the legal guarantee of conformity is renewed for a period of two years from the date of replacement of the goods.
The consumer may obtain a reduction in the purchase price by keeping the goods or terminate the contract by obtaining a full refund in exchange for the return of the goods , if:
1° The professional refuses to repair or replace the good;
2° The repair or replacement of the goods takes place after a period of thirty days;
3° The repair or replacement of the good causes a major inconvenience to the consumer, in particular where the consumer definitively bears the cost of taking back or removing the non-conforming goods, or if he bears the cost of installing the repaired or replaced goods ;
4° The non-conformity of the goods persists despite the seller's unsuccessful attempt to bring them into conformity.
The consumer is also entitled to a reduction in the price or to the rescission of the contract where the lack of conformity is so serious as to justify immediate reduction in price or rescission of the contract. The consumer is then not obliged to request the repair or replacement of the goods beforehand.
The consumer is not entitled to rescind the sale if the lack of conformity is minor.
Any period of immobilisation of the good for the purpose of repair or replacement shall suspend the guarantee which was due until delivery of the repaired goods.
The rights mentioned above result from the application of Articles L. 217-1 to L. 217-32 of the French Consumer Code.
A seller who obstructs the implementation of the legal guarantee of conformity in bad faith is liable to a civil fine of up to 300,000 euros, which may be increased up to 10% of average annual turnover (Article L. 241-5 of the French Consumer Code).
The consumer also benefits from the legal guarantee against hidden defects under Articles 1641 to 1649 of the French Civil Code, for a period of two years from the discovery of the defect. This guarantee entitles the consumer to a price reduction if the goods are kept or to a full refund for the return of the goods.
