For easier reading, the definitions below are set out in alphabetical order. "Administrator" means the person responsible for website management, in the name and on behalf of Lyria SAS. "Partner" refers to any supplier of Lyria SAS. The term "Partner" most notably includes SNCF and CFF as suppliers of train tickets and providers of the corresponding rail services. "Product" refers to train tickets sold by the Partners and other services sold by non-rail partners. "You" or "the User" refers to any person using the "Place your order" section of the website to book, order and/or purchase any rail Product offered by sncf-connect, cff.com and/or tgv-europe.com, or any other non-rail product.

These general terms of use (here after referred to as the "General Terms") apply to all services offered on the tgv-lyria.com website (the "Website") up until the point where the User is redirected to Partner websites. Lyria SAS reserves the right to modify these General Terms at any time, without prior notice.
Article 2. Use of the www.tgv-lyria.com website
The main purpose of the Website is to inform Users about TGV Lyria and to facilitate Users' searches for Products, so that they are then able to make the right booking or any other transaction directly with the Partners.
Any fraudulent use or use which breaches the General Terms may lead to Lyria SAS's refusal to grant You access of the services offered on the Website.
Searching for Products and placing Orders
The Website may be used, if You so wish, for easier searching for timetables and seats available in trains departing from and arriving in the cities listed on the Website, at the dates and times You indicate. Once you have indicated the cities of departure and arrival, the dates and times of departure, return, booking class (first or second class), the number and type of passenger(s) and have clicked on "Book...", You will be automatically redirected to the website of the corresponding Partner (SNCF or CFF), depending on the place indicated for collection of tickets - France, Switzerland or other country. From then on, You can consult train times on the Partners' Website and place your order for tickets.
The conditions for placing orders, paying, delivery, modification or cancellation of orders are the sole responsibility of the Partners, insofar as the orders are placed directly on their websites.
Lyria SAS shall not be liable for the Products ordered and/or purchased on Partner Websites or the corresponding rail and non-rail services.
