Terms of service
OVERVIEW
Welcome to The Bedding Loft. Throughout these Terms of Service, the terms “we,” “us” and “our” refer to The Bedding Loft.
The Bedding Loft operates this website and online store, including all related information, content, features, tools, products and services provided to you as a customer, collectively referred to as the “Services.” Our online store is powered by Shopify, which provides the ecommerce platform that enables us to offer these Services.
These Terms of Service, together with any policies referred to within them, explain the rights and responsibilities that apply when you access our website, use our Services or place an order with us.
Please read these Terms carefully, as they contain important information about your legal rights and include provisions relating to warranties and limitations of liability.
By accessing, browsing or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms or our Privacy Policy, you should not access or use our Services.
SECTION 1 - ACCESS AND ACCOUNT
By using our Services, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age or are accessing the Services with the permission and supervision of a parent or legal guardian.
To use our Services, including browsing our website or purchasing products, you may be asked to provide information such as your name, email address, billing address, delivery address and payment details. You agree that all information you provide is accurate, current and complete, and that you are authorised to provide it.
If you create an account with us, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account details and for all activity that takes place under your account. You must take reasonable steps to keep your login information secure.
You must not transfer, sell, assign or otherwise allow another person to use your account without our prior written permission.
SECTION 2 - OUR PRODUCTS
We make every effort to ensure that the descriptions, specifications and images of our products are accurate and up to date.
However, colours and product appearance may vary slightly depending on your device, screen settings or lighting conditions. In addition, pattern placement, fabric texture and natural variations may differ slightly between production batches.
While we strive to represent our products as accurately as possible, we cannot guarantee that the appearance of a product on your screen will exactly match the item you receive.
All product descriptions, specifications and prices are subject to change without notice. We reserve the right to amend or discontinue any product at any time and may limit the quantity of products available for purchase by any customer, order or geographic location where necessary.
SECTION 3 - ORDERS
When you place an order with The Bedding Loft, you are making an offer to purchase the products in your basket.
All orders are subject to acceptance and availability. We reserve the right to accept, decline or cancel any order at our discretion, including where a product is unavailable, a pricing error has occurred, payment cannot be authorised, or we suspect fraudulent or unauthorised activity.
Your order is only accepted once it has been confirmed and payment has been successfully received and processed.
Please review your order carefully before completing your purchase, as we may not be able to accommodate cancellation requests once an order has been accepted or processed for dispatch.
If we are unable to fulfil your order, or if we need to amend or cancel it for any reason, we will contact you using the email address, telephone number or other contact details provided when your order was placed.
Returns, refunds and exchanges are subject to our Returns & Refunds Policy.
By placing an order, you confirm that the products are being purchased for your personal or household use and not for commercial resale or export.
SECTION 4 - PRICES AND BILLING
All prices displayed on our website are shown in Pounds Sterling (£ GBP).
Prices, discounts and promotional offers may change without notice. The price you pay will be the price displayed at the time your order is placed and will be confirmed in your order confirmation email.
Unless otherwise stated, all prices include VAT where applicable. Delivery charges, where applicable, will be calculated and displayed during checkout before you complete your purchase.
From time to time, we may run promotions or special offers that are subject to their own terms and conditions. Where a promotion has separate terms, those terms will take precedence over these Terms of Service.
You agree to provide accurate, complete and up-to-date billing, delivery and payment information for all orders placed with us. If your information changes, you are responsible for updating it promptly so we can process your order and contact you if required.
By placing an order, you confirm that you are authorised to use the chosen payment method and that sufficient funds are available to complete the purchase.
SECTION 5 - SHIPPING AND DELIVERY
We aim to dispatch and deliver all orders as quickly as possible. Any delivery times quoted on our website are estimates only and are not guaranteed.
While we work closely with our suppliers and delivery partners to ensure prompt delivery, delays may occasionally occur due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including courier delays, adverse weather conditions, supplier issues or other unforeseen events.
Delivery charges, estimated delivery times and any applicable restrictions will be displayed during checkout and are also available in our Shipping Policy.
Risk in the goods passes to you upon successful delivery to the delivery address provided when placing your order.
