These terms set forth a legally binging agreement

Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Company, these terms shall apply to and govern all orders for the sale and supply of goods (“products”), between you and Company and all orders are accepted in accordance with these terms. You acknowledge you have read and understand and agree to be bound by these terms, including those additional terms and conditions and policies referenced herein and/or available by hyperlink. The terms “you,” or “your” refers to you, the customer. If you are making purchases on behalf of a business, association, or other entity, “you” or “your” will also refer to such business, association, or other entity, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. You agree that you are authorized to consent to these terms on behalf of such business, association, or other entity, and we can rely on this.

Eligibility to enter into agreement

You represent and warrant that you are, at least the age of majority in your state, province or jurisdiction of residence, or if you are under the age of majority in your state, province, or jurisdiction of residence, you represent and warrant that your parent or legal guardian has reviewed these terms with you and accepts them on your behalf.

We also have a Help Center/FAQs available here Help Center – GaraDry USA.

We don't give business customers all the same rights as non-business customers (“consumers”)

For example, business customers have no set-off rights, and charge them interest on late payments. Where a term applies just to businesses or just to consumers, this is clearly stated herein. You are a business customer if you are buying products wholly or mainly for use in connection with your trade, business, craft or profession, even if you are an individual.

Order Process

We only confirm orders when we've checked them

No order is accepted by Company until we contact you to confirm we've received your order; we will then contact you again to confirm we've dispatched it.

Sometimes we reject orders

Sometimes we reject orders, for example, because a product is unexpectedly out of stock, because a credit reference we have obtained is unsatisfactory, because you are located outside our delivery areas, as stated on our website or because the product was mispriced by us. When this happens, we let you know as soon as possible and refund any sums you have paid.

Payments; Taxes; Additional Costs

We charge you when you place your order

Orders may be paid for by debit or credit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Paypal or BACS. You cannot pay for your order by cash or check unless expressly agreed in advance by Company. The debit, credit and charge cards accepted by us are those listed on the Company website.

We use payment processors

Company uses third-party providers to securely store your payment card information and process your payments (“Payment Processors”). You expressly authorize us or our Payment Processors to charge you for each transaction. Our Payment Processors may ask you to supply additional information relevant to your transaction, including your credit card number, the expiration date of your credit card, and your email and postal addresses for billing and notification (such information, “Payment Information”). You will provide all Payment Information directly to our Payment Processors. You represent and warrant that you have the legal right to use all payment method(s) represented by any such Payment Information. By initiating a transaction, you agree to the pricing, payment, and billing policies applicable to such fees and charges, as posted or otherwise communicated to you.

We may institute chargebacks

We may institute a chargeback policy as we deem appropriate in the event that you or your bank does not honor a payment obligation or if our Payment Processors question our ability to collect funds from you. As part of such chargeback policy, we may in our sole discretion suspend, terminate, or otherwise limit your ability to place orders or otherwise take any action we or our Payment Processors deem necessary.

We may offer discounts and vouchers

From time to time we, at our sole discretion, may make discounts or voucher codes available which may reduce the price of the products you order. Company reserves the right to modify or cancel an offer at any time. The terms and conditions for these and the relevant expiry dates will be clearly set out on the website at the relevant time. Any credit issued by Company is valid for any period of time that Company sets, to the extent prohibited under applicable law, and may not be redeemed for cash or cash equivalent. Expired credits are no longer redeemable and cannot be used towards any purchase or for any other purpose.

We pass on increases in Taxes

If the rate of local, state, federal or foreign taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including value-added taxes (VAT) or sales taxes (collectively, “Taxes”) changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we adjust the rate of Taxes that you pay, unless you have already paid in full before the change in the rate of Taxes takes effect.

Delivery costs; Shipping Policy

Our delivery costs and our shipping policy terms are set out here Shipping Policy (garadry.com). Delivery costs will be calculated at checkout. Any dates quoted for the delivery of products are approximate only and we shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of products however caused. Time for delivery shall not be of the essence unless previously and expressly agreed by us in writing. Title to and risk of loss shall pass to you and delivery shall be deemed to be complete upon products leaving the possession or control of us.

Additional costs

Please note that shipments sent outside of the United States may be liable for import taxes, duties, and clearance fees which will be collected by the courier before the delivery of your order. This amount is usually calculated based on the value of goods and the type of goods being imported. For more information please contact your local customs office. You will usually be contacted by the courier in question prior to the delivery of the goods by email in order to pay these fees online.

What are these fees for?

Sales tax (such as VAT or GST) is a tax payable on goods and services. Depending on the country of export and the product ordered there may also be customs duty charged. The courier may also charge a 'handling fee' which may vary depending on the courier used. Unfortunately, we are unable to calculate these fees in advance, and you will need to contact your local customs office for more information.

What if I don't pay these fees?

If you do not pay the fees due, your order may be returned to us for a refund and a handling fee may be deducted from your refund.

Delivery

Where we do and don’t deliver to

Please refer to our website detailing the up to date list of the territories we do and do not deliver to at Where do you ship to? (garadry.com).

Products can vary slightly from their pictures

A product's true colour may not exactly match that shown on our website or in our marketing or its packaging may be slightly different. Differences may be due to your device’s display of colors or other factors such as the natural variation in each product.

You have the right to change your mind (i.e., make a return)

Your right to change your mind. For most of our products purchased online, you have a right to change your mind about your purchase and receive a refund of what you paid for it, excluding the delivery costs. This is subject to some conditions, as set out below.

When you can't change your mind. You can't change your mind about an order for products that are not in original condition or have been affixed to something else not purchased from us or goods that are made to your specification or are personalised in any way.

The deadline for changing your mind. If you change your mind about a product you must let us know no later than 14 days after the day we deliver your product.

How to let us know. To let us know you want to change your mind, contact our Customer Service Team: Contact Our Customer Service Team – GaraDry USA.

You have to return the product at your own cost. You have to return the product to us within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind. Returns are at your own cost.

For help with returns, contact our Customer Service Team: Contact Our Customer Service Team – GaraDry USA.

We reduce your refund if you have used or damaged a product. If you handle the product in a way which would not be acceptable in-store, we reduce your refund (in our sole discretion), to compensate us for its reduced value. For example, we reduce your refund if the product's condition is not "as new", the product is returned without its original packaging, and/or accessories are damaged or missing. In some cases, because of the way you have treated the product, no refund may be due. Our Customer Service Team: Contact Our Customer Service Team – GaraDry USA can advise you on whether we're likely to reduce your refund.

When and how we refund you. We refund you within 14 days of receiving the product back from you (or receiving evidence you've sent it to us). We refund you by the method you used for payment. We don't charge a fee for the refund.

We can transfer our contract with you, so that a different organisation is responsible for supplying your product. We'll tell you in writing if this happens and if you are a consumer we'll ensure that the transfer won't affect your rights under the contract.

You can only transfer your contract with us to someone else if we agree to this. However, you can transfer our customer’s guarantee to a new owner of the product.

Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. Nobody else can enforce it and neither of us will need to ask anybody else to sign-off on ending or changing it.

If a court invalidates some of this contract, the rest of it will still apply. If a court or other authority decides that some of these terms are unlawful, the rest will continue to apply.

Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. We might not immediately chase you for not doing something (like paying) or for doing something you're not allowed to, but that doesn’t mean we can't do it later.
