15.1. The new Connected Watch Trade-In program (the “Program”) operated by LVMH Watch & Jewellery Australia Pty Ltd which registered office is located at Level 5 Rialto North Tower, 525 Collins Street, Melbourne, VIC 3000 (ABN 84 078 545 481) trading as TAG Heuer, (“TAG Heuer”, “we” or “us”) in Australia and effective as of December 11th, 2023, (the “Effective Date”) provides you with the option to receive a credit in exchange for trading in your current TAG Heuer Connected from previous generations (the “Current Watch”), subject to the purchase of the latest generation of the TAG Heuer Connected watch named Calibre E4 (the “New TAG Heuer Connected”). The Program is subject to the terms and conditions below (the “Trade-In Terms”). By participating to the Program, you agree to and are bound by these Trade-In Terms. For the avoidance of doubt, it is recalled that the new Program is available only for participation in the Program after December 11th, 2023 and that the Trade-In Terms do not include any retroactive provision for any similar program previously implemented by TAG Heuer.

15.2. The Program may not be available in all TAG Heuer stores. Please refer to our web page https://www.tagheuer.com/stores to find the list of TAG Heuer selected stores where the Program is available (the “TAG Heuer Selected Stores”). You can also benefit from the Program after you have purchased a New TAG Heuer Connected on our website by following the process set out in paragraph 7.

15.3. Your Current Watch will be eligible to the Program if it belongs to one of the eligible generations of TAG Heuer Connected watches (for more information on the eligible generations, please visit our Program web page on https://www.tagheuer.com/smartwatches/connected-trade-in.html or ask a customer advisor in one of our TAG Heuer Selected Stores), if we can confirm its authenticity and if its serial number is perfectly legible. TAG Heuer reserves the right to reject specific watches based on their condition (notably if their authenticity cannot be confirmed).

15.4. You will be able to trade in your Current Watch and receive a trade-in credit (the “Trade-In Credit”) toward a purchase of the New TAG Heuer Connected made as from the Effective Date of the Program. The amount of your Trade-In Credit is the same whatever the generation of your Current Watch (Calibre E1, E2 or E3) but may vary, as set and modified unilaterally by TAG Heuer from time to time). Please refer to our Program web page or ask a customer advisor in one of our TAG Heuer Selected Stores for the most up-to-date information on the amount of the Trade-In Credit value. The acceptance and execution of the Program to trade in your Current Watch for the Trade-In Credit leads to the transfer of title and ownership over your Current Watch to TAG Heuer, and your Current Watch will not be returned to you under any circumstances once you have transferred its title and ownership to us under the Program (see also paragraph 6 and paragraph 7).

15.5. The personal information which we may need and request from you in connection with your participation to the Program will be processed in accordance with our privacy policy, which is accessible at https://www.tagheuer.com/privacy-policy.html.

15.6. TAG Heuer Selected Stores: To benefit from the Program in one of our TAG Heuer Selected Stores, you must purchase a New TAG Heuer Connected in the store concurrently with the trade-in of your Current Watch. You must bring your Current Watch with you so that our teams can confirm its eligibility to the Trade-In Credit. After successful completion of these steps, provided you are happy to proceed, you will receive your Trade-In Credit toward the concurrent purchase of a New TAG Heuer Connected. The title and ownership of your Current Watch will be transferred to TAG Heuer upon the completed purchase of your New TAG Heuer Connected with the Trade-In Credit. By participating in the Program and giving us your Current Watch, you represent and warrant that you are the sole legal owner of the Current Watch and you will indemnify TAG Heuer from any claims that the trade in of the Current Watch was not duly authorized, that you were not the legal owner of the Current Watch, or that you did not have the right to transfer ownership to TAG Heuer, for example due to third parties’ rights.

15.7. TAG Heuer e-commerce website: To benefit from the Program after you have completed your online purchase of a New TAG Heuer Connected on our e-commerce website, you must first complete your purchase of the New TAG Heuer Connected. You will then need to contact our Customer Care team within thirty (30) calendar days following delivery of your New TAG Heuer Connected to initiate the trade-in process. Our Customer Care team will provide you with (i) instructions to perform an initial assessment of the eligibility of your Current Watch (note that you can also contact our Customer Care team to perform such initial assessment before purchasing your New TAG Heuer Connected), (ii) instructions and timing requirements for the shipment of your Current Watch to us if the initial eligibility assessment is positive and (iii) a prepaid shipping label which you must use to return your Current Watch. If you return your Current Watch other than via the prepaid shipping label, the shipment will be at your expense. If you do not contact our Customer Care team by the end of the thirty (30) calendar day period or ship your Current Watch within the time period instructed to you by our Customer Care team, the benefit of the Program will be void and your Current Watch will no longer be eligible for the Trade-In Credit.

Upon receipt of your Current Watch shipped in accordance with our instructions, our Customer Care team will proceed to a final confirmation of its eligibility to the Trade-In Credit and communicate such confirmation to you. After such confirmation and once the return period applicable to the purchase of your New TAG Heuer Connected has expired (see paragraph 13), the title and ownership of your Current Watch will be transferred to us and paragraph 8 will apply. We will proceed to the payment of the amount corresponding to the Trade-In Credit after the end of the return period applicable to your New TAG Heuer Connected, in the same currency and through the same payment method used for your purchase of the New TAG Heuer Connected. If we conclude that your Current Watch is not eligible to the Program pursuant to the Trade-In Terms, our Customer Care team will inform you accordingly and we will return your Current Watch to you, at our expense.

15. 8. By participating to the Program, you understand and agree that once the title and ownership of your Current Watch is transferred to TAG Heuer, TAG Heuer will initiate the disposal process of the Current Watch and will no longer be able to recover it. You disclaim any and all right or title on and to your Current Watch once it has been transferred to us, including the right to collect, as applicable, its value other than the received Trade-In Credit.

15.9. You must perform a factory reset and remove all personal information from your Current Watch before handing it or sending it to us pursuant to paragraphs 6 and 7, respectively. In proceeding to benefit the Program, you represent and confirm that you have performed such factory reset and removed all personal information from your Current Watch accordingly. TAG Heuer shall not be responsible for the disclosure or any other processing of any private information that has not been removed from your Current Watch prior to its return or shipment.

15.10. You must use the following methods of payment for the purchase of your New TAG Heuer Connected under the Program: all major debit or credit cards, Paypal (for online purchases only) or wire transfer in certain TAG Heuer Selected Stores depending on countries. Cash payments are also accepted in certain TAG Heuer Selected Stores, to the extent permitted by law and by our internal policies. Other methods of payment (e.g., payment in several instalments through a financing solution which could be proposed by TAG Heuer in certain countries for a regular purchase) are not available for a purchase under the Program.

15.11. Trade-In Credits cannot be combined for a single purchase of a New TAG Heuer Connected.

15.12. Returns – General: Taking part in the Program does not affect your right to return your New TAG Heuer Connected in accordance with our applicable return policies, subject to paragraphs 4, 7 and 8.

15.13. Returns – Online: For returns of the New TAG Heuer Connected purchased on our website, we will reimburse you the purchase price in the same currency and through the same payment method used for the purchase of your New TAG Heuer Connected in accordance with our online terms and conditions of sale which can be found on https://www.tagheuer.com/legal/terms.html and the benefit of the Program will be cancelled. If you return your New TAG Heuer Connected during the applicable return period and you have sent us your Current Watch to receive the Trade-In Credit, we will return your Current Watch to you at our expense and you will not receive the Trade-In Credit.

15.14. Returns – TAG Heuer Selected Stores: Returns of the New TAG Heuer Connected purchased in TAG Heuer Selected Stores shall be subject to the applicable return policy of the store where the New TAG Heuer Connected has been purchased. Please ask the customer advisors in your TAG Heuer Selected Store for additional information on any such return policy.

15.15. TAG Heuer reserves the right to exclude from the Program certain specific models or editions of the New TAG Heuer Connected collection.

15.16. The Program is only available to consumers who will purchase the New TAG Heuer Connected for domestic and private use. The purchase of a New TAG Heuer Connected with the intention of reselling it is strictly prohibited under the Program.

15.17. The Program cannot be combined with any other promotions, discounts or offers unless specifically provided for in the terms and conditions of such offers.

15.18. TAG Heuer reserves the right to terminate, adapt or amend the Program, including the Trade-in Credit value, the eligibility criteria, the trade-in conditions and the Trade-In Terms at any time.

15.19. The Program eligibility or the Trade-In Credit offered by TAG Heuer are not transferrable to any person other than you, as the owner of a Current Watch or a New TAG Heuer Connected.

15.20. TAG Heuer reserves the right to decline or cancel your participation in the Program, if we believe that your participation is pursuing an illegal or fraudulent purpose.

15.21. Each of the paragraphs of these Trade-In Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

15.22. Other than as specified in these Trade-In Terms, our standard terms and conditions for the sale of TAG Heuer products will also govern your purchase of the New TAG Heuer Connected. In case of inconsistency or conflict between the Trade-In Terms and our standard terms and conditions, the Trade-In Terms shall prevail.

15.23. These Trade-In Terms are governed by Victorian law and the courts in and of Victoria will have exclusive jurisdiction for any dispute arising in connection with these Trade-In Terms.

16. OTHER IMPORTANT TERMS

16.1. We may transfer our rights and obligations under a Contract to another organization, but this will not affect your rights or our obligations under these Terms.

16.2. You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these Terms to another person if we agree in writing.

16.3. This Contract is between you and us. Except as expressly set out in this clause 15, no person who is not a party to this Contract shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms. The rights of the parties to terminate, rescind or agree any variation, waiver or settlement under this Contract are not subject to the consent of any other person.

16.4. Each of the paragraphs of these Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

16.5. If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and any written waiver does not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.

16.6. These Terms are governed by the laws of Victoria. This means a Contract for the purchase of Products through our site and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with the Contract (including non-contractual disputes or claims) will be governed by the laws of Victoria. You and we both agree that the courts in and of Victoria will have exclusive jurisdiction.
