Terms of service

OVERVIEW
Welcome to DispoPet! The terms ‘we’, ‘us’ and ‘our’ refer to DispoPet. DispoPet operates this shop and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products and services, to provide you, the customer, with a personalised shopping experience (the ‘Services’). DispoPet is powered by Shopify, enabling us to provide the Services to you.

The terms and conditions set out below, including all policies referred to herein (the ‘Terms of Service’ or ‘Terms’), describe your rights and responsibilities when using the Services.

Please read these Terms of Service carefully. They contain important information about your legal rights and cover topics such as disclaimers and limitations of liability.

By visiting, interacting with or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy [LINK]. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service or the Privacy Policy, you are not permitted to access or use our Services.

ARTICLE 1 – ACCESS AND ACCOUNT
By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you confirm that you are of legal age in accordance with the laws of the state or province in which you reside, and that you have given us permission to allow any minor family members to use the Services on devices that you own, purchase or manage.
In order to use the Services, including visiting or browsing our online shops or purchasing products or services offered by us, we may ask you to provide certain information, such as your email address and your billing, payment and delivery details. You represent and warrant that all information you provide in our shops is accurate, up to date and complete, and that you have all the necessary rights to provide this information.
You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your account login details and for all activities carried out via your account. You must not transfer, sell, assign or licence your account to anyone else.

ARTICLE 2 – OUR PRODUCTS
We endeavour to provide as accurate a description as possible of our products and services in our online shops. However, please bear in mind that the colours and appearance of the product may differ from how they are displayed on your screen. This is due to the type of device you are using to access the shop and to the device’s settings and configuration. We do not guarantee that the appearance or quality of the products or services you purchase will meet your expectations or correspond to the display or description in our online shop. All product descriptions may be amended at any time and without prior notice, at our sole discretion. We reserve the right to discontinue the sale of a product at any time and may limit the quantities of products we offer per person, geographical region or jurisdiction on a case-by-case basis.

ARTICLE 3 – ORDERS
When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase. DispoPet reserves the right to accept or refuse your order at its sole discretion for any reason whatsoever. Your order is only accepted once DispoPet has confirmed it. We must have received and processed your payment before your order is accepted. Please check your order carefully before submitting it. DispoPet may not be able to honour a request for cancellation once your order has been accepted. In the event that we do not accept, amend or cancel an order, we will endeavour to notify you by contacting you via the email address, billing address and/or telephone number you provided during the ordering process.

You may only return or exchange purchases in accordance with our refund policy. You represent and warrant that your purchases are intended for personal use or use within your household and not for commercial resale or export.

ARTICLE 4 – PRICES AND INVOICING

Prices, discounts and promotions are subject to change without prior notice. The price charged for a product or service is the price applicable at the time you place your order. This price is stated in the confirmation email you receive after placing your order. Unless expressly stated otherwise, the prices quoted are exclusive of taxes, delivery charges, handling fees, customs duties and import duties.

The prices displayed in our online shops may differ from those in physical shops, or in online shops or other shops operated by third parties. We may, from time to time, offer promotions for the Services which may affect pricing and to which terms and conditions apply that are separate from these Terms. In the event of any discrepancy between the terms of a promotion and these Terms, the promotion terms shall take precedence.

You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase, payment and account details for all purchases you make in our shops. You agree to update your account and other details, including your email address, credit card numbers and expiry dates, immediately upon any change, so that we can process your transactions and contact you if necessary.

You represent and warrant that (i) the credit card details you provide are accurate, correct and complete; (ii) you are authorised to use the credit card for purchases; (iii) your expenditure is authorised by the credit card issuer; and (iv) you will pay the charges incurred in accordance with the prices displayed, including postage, handling charges and any applicable taxes, where applicable.

ARTICLE 5 – SHIPPING AND DELIVERY

We shall not be liable for any delays in shipping or delivery. All stated delivery times are estimates only and are not guaranteed. We shall not be liable for delays caused by carriers, customs clearance or events beyond our control. Once we have handed the products over to the carrier, title and the risk of loss shall pass to you.

You agree that your Feedback does not infringe the rights of third parties, including copyright, trade marks, privacy rights, personality rights and other personal or proprietary rights. You further agree that your Feedback must not contain defamatory or otherwise unlawful, offensive or obscene expressions, nor computer viruses or other malware that may in any way affect the operation of the Services or related websites. You must not use a false email address, impersonate any other person or otherwise mislead us or third parties as to the origin of the Feedback.
