We would like to draw your attention to the fact that Ledger is collaborating with Global-e for the offering and sale of Products and associated services available on the Website. Global-e is the sales facilitation partner of Ledger that is operating this Website. Ledger has an agreement with Global-e allowing Global-e to act as the merchant of record.

Please note: Ledger Products require special attention. Please, carefully read the following:
SECURITY OF AND UPDATES TO LEDGER PRODUCTS
Securing your Ledger Products and keeping your recovery phrase safe
Note: Be careful to keep your security phrase in a safe place. You will need it throughout the life of your Ledger Product. You alone have control of it and without it you risk losing access to your crypto assets! |
Your recovery phrase is unique. It is only communicated to you once when your Ledger Product is first activated. It consists of a random sequence of 24 words.
Your recovery phrase allows you to access, under all circumstances, the private keys giving access to your crypto assets. You may need it at any time:
- If you lose your Ledger Product or it is stolen
- If your Ledger Product breaks down or is accidentally damaged
- If you forget the access pin to your Ledger Product
- If there is a firmware update, especially for security reasons
- If you need to recover your crypto assets to migrate them to another type of wallet
- or for any other reason…
Your recovery phrase is a key component of the security system for the sensitive content stored on your Ledger Product. It must be kept secret at all times.
Please note: Keep your recovery phrase in a safe place. Ledger will never ask for your 24 words. Never enter your 24 words anywhere other than on your Ledger Product. |
If your 24 words are accidentally lost or disclosed, it is important to note that:
- For security reasons, Ledger does not hold any backup copies of your 24 words;
- You may no longer be able to access your crypto assets – permanently;
- You run the risk that anyone (in possession of your 24 words) will be able to access your crypto assets in order to misappropriate them and associate them with their own private key.
To learn more about using and securing your 24 words, visit the Ledger Website regularly, including the dedicated section of the Ledger Academy "What is a recovery phrase" or our support platform "I lost my 24-word recovery phrase".
Important: These specific conditions of use relate to the particular technological nature and sensitivity of the information (private keys) that you secure using Ledger Products. These rules of use must be followed in all cases, regardless of how you procure our products: from Ledger directly, from our partner Global-e on the Website or from another retailer. |
Updates to the digital elements contained in Ledger Products
Ledger may provide updates from time to time.
Updates proposed by Ledger may have a variety of purposes, such as addressing possible security breaches or incidents or developing features.
Ledger will always inform you of the availability, purpose and installation conditions of its updates.
If an update is required to keep your item in conformity (e.g. a security update), you must install it within a reasonable time using the instructions provided by Ledger.
Please note: Failure to install an update required to keep a Ledger Product in conformity may lead to operating faults with this Product. Ledger is not responsible for operating faults resulting from the failure to install necessary updates (including security updates). |

Once your cart is filled, complete your purchases by following the instructions provided at each step, then check the order summary is accurate before clicking on the "Order" button (each, an “Order”).A confirmation email will then be sent to you (“Order Confirmation”).
The Order is subject to fraud checks and other mandated regulatory checks and in particular checked against OFAC Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons and the Frozen Assets lists maintained by the French Direction General du Trésor in application of Article L.562-1 and subs. from the French “Code Monétaire et Financier” (collectively known as ‘Denied Parties Screening’). You may also be required to provide additional verifications and information before, and as a condition to, the acceptance of any Order (mainly if there is suspicion that the identity, address, email address and/or payment information were used fraudulently or in an unauthorized manner).
In certain circumstances your Order may be declined or cancelled (in full or in part), whether before, or after an Order Confirmation was received. For example we may, in our sole discretion, decline or cancel (in full or in part), any Orders which did not successfully pass the above mentioned fraud and regulatory checks, any abnormal Orders, any Orders which are suspected to be placed in bad faith, Orders which were not placed by Consumers, Orders in which the payment information you provided cannot be verified, or if a Product or associated service included in the Order is unavailable.

An example could be a speciously low price for an item otherwise costing significantly more and not in the context of a ‘sale’ or special promotion. We will be under no obligation to honor an Order in such erroneous circumstances.
In each event described above where an Order was cancelled or declined, you will be refunded in accordance with these terms (provided your payment was processed successfully).
We are not required to provide a reason for declining or cancelling any Order, though we may do so in our sole discretion.

The checkout will provide details, itemize, or indicate if the price paid is inclusive or exclusive of duties and taxes before you complete and place the Order.
If Duties and Taxes were not paid when you placed your order, either because you so elected or because pre-payment is not available in the delivery destination (or for any other reason): (a) you are advised that the amount of Duties and Taxes displayed under the pre-payment option on the checkout is only an estimation and may not reflect the amount of Duties and Taxes actually charged to you by the broker, carrier or the relevant authority, which such amount might be higher than the estimation; and (b) you will be fully responsible for paying all applicable Duties and Taxes directly to the relevant authority as determined and assessed by such authorities. Global-e and Ledger will have no responsibility or liability in connection with the foregoing. Moreover, if you fail to pay any Duties and Taxes without reasonable reason, causing the liability to fall on us, the carrier or any third party (including Ledger), the amount of such Duties and Taxes may be deducted from any refund or other amounts you may claim.
Global-e may contract with customs brokers or use fiscal representatives to act on its or your behalf for the purposes of clearing the Order into the market. We may also act as, or use our intra-group affiliates as, a ‘customs declarant’ to clear the Order into the market in our name but on your behalf. Your agreement to these General Conditions constitutes a consent and authorization for such customs brokers, fiscal representatives or intra-group affiliates to act on your behalf (as an agent, declarant or as otherwise applicable) to: (a) transact with the applicable authorities, (b) complete, submit and execute related documents on your behalf in connection with the import and clearance of Products, (c) facilitate payment of Duties and Taxes and customs clearance; and (d) if applicable, return such Products (subject to these General Conditions).
You (and not Global-e or anyone on its behalf) will be fully responsible for claiming back any Duties and Taxes from the applicable authority, no matter what the process of payment was thereof, to the extent possible, in cases of a return or any other eligible circumstances. Global-e and Ledger will have no responsibility or liability in connection with such drawback claim.
If you elected not to pre-pay Duties and Taxes, or failed to pay Duties and Taxes, or refused to accept Product not in accordance with a due cancellation procedure under these General Conditions, in each case resulting with the Product being returned or need to be returned, then, in addition to the above, you may be liable for the return costs and charges, and may not be reimbursed or refunded for the shipping costs paid by you for making the delivery to you. You may also be charged with additional direct or indirect charges resulting from said failure or refusal.

If the payment method you selected does not support pre-authorization mechanism, the charge will be immediate upon placing the Order (noting however that specific payment methods may support a different timing and we may not know or be in control over such timing, if applicable.
