Purchase conditions

1. INTRODUCTION

This document lays out the conditions governing the use of this website and the purchase of products in the same (hereinafter the "Conditions").

Please read the Conditions carefully before using this website. By using this site or placing an order through this site, you agree to be bound by these Conditions; therefore if you do not agree with all the Conditions, you should cease the use of this site.

These Conditions may be amended. It is your responsibility to read them regularly, because the conditions in force at the time of usage of the site or execution of the Agreement (as defined below) will be the conditions applicable to you.

2. USE OF OUR WEBPAGE

By using this website and placing orders through the same you agree:

1. To use this website only to make inquiries or place orders that are legally valid.

2. Not to place any false or fraudulent order. If we can reasonably determine that an order is false or fraudulent, we will be entitled to cancel the order and report it to the relevant authorities.

3. To provide us with your true email address, mailing address and/or other contact information. You also agree that we may use that information to contact you.

If you do not provide us with all the necessary information, we will not be able to process your order.

By placing an order through this website, you declare to be older than 18 years old and to have legal capacity to enter into agreements.

3. SERVICE AVAILABILITY

The articles that are displayed throughout the website can be sent worldwide.

4. EXECUTION OF THE AGREEMENT

The information contained in these Conditions and the details contained in this website do not constitute an offer to sell, but an invitation to tender. No agreement will exist between you and us in respect of any product unless and until we accept your order. If your tender is not accepted and a charge has already been made to your account, it will be refunded in full. To place an order, you must follow the online purchasing procedure and click on "Authorise payment". Soon thereafter you will receive an email acknowledging receipt of your order (the "Order Confirmation"). Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted; since it is an offer you make us to buy one or more products. All orders are subject to our acceptance, which will be notified through an email confirming that the product has been dispatched (the "Shipping Confirmation"). The agreement between you and us for the purchase of a product (the "Agreement") will be formalised only upon our sending the Shipping Confirmation to you.

The Agreement will only refer to those products listed in the Shipping Confirmation. We will not be obliged to supply any ordered product until shipping has been confirmed by means of a Shipping Confirmation.

5. AVAILABILITY OF PRODUCTS

All orders are subject to availability of products. If difficulties arise in respect of the supply of products, or if any particular product is not in stock, we reserve the right to refund any prepaid amount.

6. REFUSAL TO PROCESS AN ORDER

We reserve the right to remove any product from this website at any time and to remove, or modify any material or content thereof. Although we will do our best to always process all orders, exceptional circumstances may require us to refuse processing an order after sending the Order Confirmation, therefore we reserve the right to do so at any time, in our sole discretion.We will not be liable to you or to any third party for removing any product from this website, regardless of whether the product has been sold or not, for removing or modifying any material or web page content, or for refusing to process an order after having sent you the Order Confirmation.

7. SHIPPING AND DELIVERY

We ship worldwide with Australia Post.

The items will be shipped to the delivery address that the client has indicated when placing the order.

Once the order has been dispatched from our warehouse, an e-mail will be sent to the client notifying him/her of the orders dispatch. The order will be sent to the delivery address that the client has stated in the registry form- it is important that the client ensures that address details are correct as these cannot be modified, “paloma wool” cannot be held liable for lost orders related to an incorrect address or incomplete information entered on an order.

Shipping price does not include local import taxes, which may apply to shipments destined for countries outside of Australia. These expenses are not the responsibility of the brand and must be borne by the recipient of the parcel. Regrettably, we have no control over these charges and cannot provide an estimate, as customs policies and import duties vary by country.

The customer assumes full responsibility for all postal charges, return shipment costs, customs fees, and handling charges in the event they decline to accept a parcel due to import duties or taxes.


8. DELIVERY FAILURE

If after two attempts delivery of your parcel becomes impossible, we will try to find a safe place to leave it, and will also leave a note to let you know where your parcel is and how to pick it up. If you are not going to be in the place of delivery at the convened time, please contact us to agree on another delivery date.

If 15 days after your parcel is available for delivery the parcel has not been delivered for reasons not attributable to us, we will understand that you want to cancel the Agreement and it will therefore be terminated. Following said termination we will refund you the price paid for such products as soon as possible and in any event within a maximum of 30 days from the date in which we deem the Agreement to be terminated. In such case, we will be authorised to charge you the transportation costs arising from the shipping and termination costs.

9. PASSING OF PRODUCT OWNERSHIP AND PASSING OF RISK

You will bear all risks associated with the products from the moment of their delivery. You will acquire the ownership of the products the moment we receive full payment of all amounts payable in respect of them, including shipping costs, or at the time of delivery (as defined in clause 9 above) if delivery takes place at a later time.

10. PRICE AND PAYMENT

The price of each product will be as quoted in our website, except in cases of obvious error. Although we do our best to ensure that all prices listed on the website are accurate, errors may occur. If we find an error in the price of any product you have ordered, we will inform you as soon as possible and give you the option to either reconfirm your order at the correct price or cancel it. If we are unable to contact you, the order will be deemed as cancelled and you will receive a full refund of the amounts you have prepaid.

We are under no obligation to supply you with any product at the incorrect lower price (even after we have sent you a Shipping Confirmation) if the pricing error is obvious and unequivocal and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing.

Prices may change at any time but (except as stated above) eventual changes will not affect orders for which we have already sent you a Shipping Confirmation.

Once you have finished shopping, all the items you wish to purchase will be added to your cart and the next step will be processing and paying for your order.

You can pay for your order using Paypal. To discuss other payment options, please email us.

All product descriptions, information and materials contained in this website are provided “as is” and without warranty of any kind, express or implied.

To the extent permitted by law, we hereby exclude all warranties except for those that cannot be excluded under consumer laws.

The provisions of this clause will not affect your statutory rights as a consumer and user or your right to cancel the Agreement.

12. RE-SALE AND DISTRIBUTION

This shopping channel is restricted to consumers or the final recipients of our products, thus any professional activity of re-sale, agency or distribution of our products is prohibited.

13. WRITTEN COMMUNICATIONS

Applicable laws require that some of the information or communications we send to you are to be in writing. By using this site, you agree that most of these communications will be in electronic format. We will either contact you by email or provide you with information by posting notices on this website.

15. ASSIGNMENT OF RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS

You may not transfer, assign, encumber or dispose in any other manner of an Agreement and any of your rights or obligations arising under said Agreement without our prior consent in writing.

We may transfer, assign, encumber, subcontract or dispose in any other manner of an Agreement and any of our rights or obligations arising under said Agreement, at any time during the term of the Agreement. For avoidance of doubt, such transfers, assignments, encumbrances or other transfers will not affect the rights (if any) you have as a consumer under the law, nor will they cancel, reduce or otherwise limit the warranties, express or implied, that we could have provided.

16. EVENTS BEYOND OUR CONTROL

We will not be liable for any failure or delay in performance of any of our obligations under an Agreement that is caused by events outside our reasonable control ("Force Majeure Event"). Force Majeure Events will include any act, event, failure, omission or accident beyond our reasonable control and including the following:

0. Strikes, lockouts or other industrial actions.

1. Civil commotions, riot, invasion, terrorist attack or terrorist threat, war (whether declared or not) or threat or preparation for war.

5. Acts, decrees, legislation, regulations or restrictions of any government or public authority.

6. Strike, failures or accidents of maritime, fluvial or postal transportation, or another type of transportation.

Our obligations arising from the Agreement will be suspended during the period in which the Force Majeure Event goes on, and therefore we will be granted a deadline extension for compliance with said obligations for a period of time equivalent to the duration of the Force Majeure Event. We will take all reasonable action to put an end to the Force Majeure Event or to find a solution that allows us to fulfil our obligations under the Agreement despite the existence of the Force Majeure Event.

17. WAIVER

Under no circumstance our failure to demand your strict compliance with any of your obligations under an Agreement or under this Conditions, or our failure to exercise any of our rights or actions under said Agreement or the Conditions, will constitute a waiver or limitation on such rights or remedies, and it will not exempt you from compliance with such obligations.

No waiver by us to a specific right or action will constitute a waiver to other rights or actions arising from the Agreement or the Conditions.

No waiver by us to any of the present Conditions or to the rights and actions arising from the Agreement will become effective unless it is expressly pronounced a waiver and formalised as such, and a notice in writing is served to you in this respect in accordance with the provisions of Notifications section above.

18. SEVERABILITY

If any of these Conditions or any provision of an Agreement are declared null and void by a final decision issued by a competent authority, the remaining terms and conditions will remain in effect without being affected by said declaration.

19. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

The present Conditions and any other document expressly referred to therein constitute the entire agreement between both parties in respect of the subject of the Agreement and supersede any prior agreement, understanding or arrangement between you and us, orally or in writing.

Both parties hereby acknowledge that they have consented to the execution of the Agreement without reliance on any statement or promise made by the other party or which may be inferred from any statement or written document in negotiations between both parties prior to said Agreement, except for that which is explicitly mentioned in these Conditions.

Neither party will have action in respect of any misrepresentation made by the other party, orally or in writing, prior to the date of the Agreement (except in case of fraudulent misrepresentation), the only action that this party will have is an action for breach of contract in accordance with the provisions of these Conditions.

20. OUR RIGHT TO AMEND THESE CONDITIONS

We have the right to adjust and amend these Conditions at any time.
You will be subject to the policies and Conditions in force at the time you make use of this website or at the time you place an order for products, except if we are required by law or a governmental authority to make retroactive changes in these policies, Conditions or Privacy Statement, in which case said amendments will apply to previous orders placed by you.
