Where We sell goods (“Goods”) or services (“Services”) (collectively the “Products”) on the Site, such transactions are governed by the terms and conditions set out below.

Please read these terms and conditions carefully before ordering any Products. You should understand that by ordering any Products, you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING THE PURCHASE OF MESSAGES, VIRTUAL GIFTS AND OTHER CONTENT/MATERIALS FOR DISPLAY ON THE SITE:

We cannot guarantee that the Site will operate on a permanent basis. Therefore, if you purchase a message, virtual gift or other content/material for display on the Site then, unless otherwise stated, our commitment to display is one year from the date that the message, virtual gift or other content/material first appears on the Site.

1. WHERE WE DELIVER GOODS

Unless otherwise stated on the Site, delivery of Goods will only be made to addresses in the United Kingdom mainland.

2. YOUR STATUS

By placing an order through the Site, you warrant that:

(a) you are legally capable of entering into binding contracts;

you are at least 18 years old; and

(c) you shall abide by the Website Terms and Conditions.

3. HOW THE CONTRACT IS FORMED BETWEEN YOU AND US

After placing an order, you will receive an order acknowledgment e-mail from us or our payment processor confirming that we have received your order and payment (“Order Acknowledgment Email”). Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy a Product. The contract between us (“Contract”) will only be formed when we dispatch the Goods or commence the supply of Services to you.

4. CANCELLATIONS

4.1 You may cancel a Contract for Goods at any time up to seven working days after the day you receive the Goods. In this case, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Goods.

You may cancel a Contract for Services at any time before such Services start. In this case, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Services.

To cancel a Contract, you must inform us in writing. In the case of Goods, you must also return the Goods to us immediately, in the same condition in which you received them, and at your own cost and risk. You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of any Goods while they are in your possession. If you fail to comply with this obligation, we may have a right of action against you for compensation.

You will not have any right to cancel a Contract where the Product:

(a) has been used; or

is audio or video recordings or software and you have taken it out of the sealed packet in which it was delivered to you;

(c) has been made or customized specifically for you; or

(d) is by its nature of limited lifespan, such as flowers and fresh food.

5. AVAILABILITY AND DELIVERY

Your order will be fulfilled by the delivery date set out in the Email Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then within 30 days of the date of the Email Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances.

6. RISK AND TITLE

Goods will be at your risk from the time of delivery.

Ownership of Goods will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of such Goods, including any delivery charges.

7. PRICE AND DELIVERY CHARGES

7.1 The price of any Product will be as quoted on the Site from time to time, except in cases of obvious error.

7.2 VAT and delivery costs will be stated prior to you submitting your order to us and will be added to the total amount due.

7.3 It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products listed on the Site may be incorrectly priced. We are under no obligation to provide any Product to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you an Email Confirmation, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing.

8. REFUNDS POLICY

8.1 If you have cancelled the Contract (per clause 4 above) then we will refund the price of the Product in full, including the delivering costs. Please note that you will be responsible for the cost of returning any Goods to us.

If there is a fault with any Goods within 12 months of delivery, we will normally offer a prompt repair, exchange or refund. In all cases, we reserve the right to inspect the Goods and verify the fault. Any refund due to a fault will include a refund of the delivery costs paid by you. We will also pay for our costs of collecting the faulty Goods.

Any refund will be made within 30 days and usually by the same method originally used by you to pay for your purchase.

9. OUR LIABILITY

9.1 Our liability for losses you suffer as a result of us breaking this agreement is strictly limited to the purchase price of the Product you purchased.

for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or

(d) for any matter for which it would be illegal for us to exclude, or attempt to exclude, our liability.

11. EVENTS OUTSIDE OUR CONTROL

11.1 We will not be liable or responsible for any failure to perform, or delay in performance of, any of our obligations under a Contract that is caused by events outside our reasonable control (“Force Majeure Event”).

11.3 Our performance under any Contract is deemed to be suspended for the period that the Force Majeure Event continues, and we will have an extension of time for performance for the duration of that period. We will use our reasonable endeavours to bring the Force Majeure Event to a close or to find a solution by which our obligations under the Contract may be performed despite the Force Majeure Event.

12. WAIVER

12.1 If we fail, at any time during the term of a Contract, to insist upon strict performance of any of your obligations under the Contract, or if we fail to exercise any of the rights or remedies to which we are entitled under the Contract, this shall not constitute a waiver of such rights or remedies and shall not relieve you from compliance with such obligations.

12.2 A waiver by us of any default shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent default.

12.3 No waiver shall be effective unless it is expressly stated to be a waiver and is communicated to you in writing.

13. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of these terms and conditions or any Contract are determined by any competent authority to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, such provision will to that extent be severed from the remaining terms and conditions or any Contract which will continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.

14. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

14.1 These terms and conditions and any document expressly referred to in them represent the entire agreement between us in relation to the subject matter of any Contract and supersede any prior agreement, understanding or arrangement between us, whether oral or in writing.
