If an anomaly appears or that the material seems defective, it is recommended not to make fly the drone and to inform MI²LTON.

As an exporter, MI²LTON has the responsibility to apply for an export license for dual-use goods and to obtain additional information (e.g.: End Use Certificate duly completed) from the customer. The customer is obliged to provide MI²LTON with truthful and complete answers in order not to hinder the license application procedure. In the case where the customer is not able to provide a sincere and honest additional information, MI²LTON reserves the right to cancel the order and to proceed to the refunding of the customer (except possible management fees).

An acknowledgement of receipt will be sent by the same means within 24 hours.

The product(s) returned to MI²LTON must imperatively be returned in their original packaging and complete. The serial numbers will have to be identical to the serial numbers of the delivered products, and the products will not have to be activated. MI²LTON will not be able to accept the return of a product whose activation will have been carried out or whose serial number does not correspond to the delivered product. Products excluded from the right of withdrawal: the products having been activated (example: drones, cameras and software of the DJI brand) and the products having been personalized or modified (personalization or modification of the drone such as the installation of a specific marking or the installation of a parachute) will not be able to be the subject of a return to MI²LTON without preliminary agreement of the company. With reception of the products turned over by the customer, MI²LTON will proceed to the checking of the conformity of the turned over products and to their refunding within 14 days as from the reception of the products. A nonconforming product returned will not be able to be the subject of a refunding and the expenses of return to the customer will be with his load.

Article 7 - Guarantee:

In accordance with the legislation in force (Article L217-3 of the Consumer Code), the consumer has a period of 24 months from the delivery of the product to report a lack of conformity existing at the time of delivery of the goods. For goods sold second-hand, this period is set at 12 months (Article L217-7 of the Consumer Code). The good is in conformity if it meets the following criteria, if applicable:

• It corresponds to the description, type, quantity and quality, particularly with regard to functionality, compatibility, interoperability, or any other characteristic provided for in the contract;
• It is fit for any special purpose sought by the consumer, made known to the seller at the latest at the time of the conclusion of the contract and accepted by the latter;
• It is delivered with all accessories and installation instructions, to be provided in accordance with the contract;
• It is updated in accordance with the contract.

In the event of defect of conformity, the customer has right to the setting in conformity of the good by repair or replacement, or with defect to the reduction of the price or the resolution of the contract. The consumer requests from MI²LTON the setting in conformity of the good, by choosing between the repair or the replacement. For this purpose, the consumer puts the good at the disposal of MI²LTON (Articles L217-8 and L217-9 of the Code of the consumption). The salesman can refuse the setting in conformity of the good if this one is impossible or involves disproportionate costs in particular with regard to the value which would have the good in the absence of defect of conformity or the importance of the defect of conformity. The refusal by MI²LTON to proceed to the setting in conformity or to act according to the choice of the consumer will be motivated in writing. Any good repaired within the framework of the legal guarantee of conformity profits from an extension of this guarantee of six months. The possible reduction of the price is proportional to the difference between the value of the delivered good and the value of this good in the absence of the defect of conformity. When your good has a defect, you can also implement the warranty against hidden defects within two years from the discovery of the defect. It is up to you to prove that the defect existed at the time of purchase, that it was hidden and that it renders the product unusable. The legal guarantee of conformity and against the hidden defects applies independently of the commercial guarantee which can possibly cover your good. MI²LTON puts a point of honor to deliver material of quality. Because of their technicality, it can happen that a product can meet a problem, which is directly related to him or not.

Special cases of the use of drones :

Initially, the telepilot customer will have to make sure to use his drone in perfect conformity with the legislation in force and in accordance with the user manual of the manufacturer. In case of absence or loss of the user's manual, the customer can obtain it on simple request from MI²LTON. MI²LTON could not be held responsible for a use of the drone not in conformity with the legislation and/or the recommendations of the manufacturer. In order to cover its responsibility, MI²LTON reminds that the customer user will have to subscribe a civil liability insurance for any damage which can be caused by the use of the drone. MI²LTON recommends to its customers to carry out a control and the tests of use of the drone before any flight. If an anomaly appears or the material seems defective, it is recommended not to fly the drone and to inform MI²LTON. In the case of a guarantee of a product, MI²LTON will propose a replacement of the defective parts. In any case, the product must imperatively be sent back to MI²LTON following its preliminary agreement. The use of the drone for which an anomaly was detected before the flight risks to damage the drone, its components and loads and to cause the fall of the drone. In any case, the damage caused by the fall of the drone and related to an anomaly detected before the flight or to a human error could not be taken in guarantee by MI²LTON. This also applies to the damage undergone by the accessories and payloads of the drone and which do not present defect of conformity or hidden defect. If the malfunction of the material is not covered by the guarantee (period of guarantee expired or malfunction not covered by the guarantee), MI²LTON will transmit to the customer a repair estimate. Warranty exclusion factors for drones may include, but are not limited to:

• Damage caused by factors not related to the manufacture, such as a crash of the device, including but not limited to pilot error.
• Damage caused by unauthorized modification, disassembly or opening of the hull not in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions or official manuals.
• Damage caused by unauthorized modification of the circuitry, misuse of the battery and charger or use of non-compatible batteries and chargers.
• Damage caused by external factors beyond our control, including fire, flooding, high winds and lightning.
• Damage caused by forced theft while components are obsolete or damaged.

Special case of batteries:

Batteries are wear items whose life span is clearly related to their conditions of use. Therefore, MI²LTON grants to its customers a contractual guarantee of 3 months as from their purchase (except for the batteries of the DJI brand, for which the guarantee is extended to 12 months) valid in Metropolitan France. This guarantee allows the exchange of a defective battery provided that the Customer respected the conditions of use of the battery and that the customer returned to MI²LTON the damaged battery for inspection by its technical service. Lithium batteries being particularly sensitive to external elements, such as excessive temperatures or load, the customer user will have to scrupulously refer to the recommendations of the manufacturer and not to leave the batteries in loading or unloading without monitoring. Likewise, the customer must comply with the conditions of transport of the batteries imposed by the carriers he/she may use, including the transport of the batteries by air, in hold luggage or in the cabin. In order to obtain more information on the transport of batteries and their packaging, the customer may refer to his carrier and to the IATA regulations.
