Terms & Conditions

We ensure we look after your personal data and we only ever use your data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Every now and again we may need to withdraw, amend or restrict access to the services we provide through the Site without notice. If we do so we will not be liable if for any reason any of the Services are unavailable.

As a registered user you will choose a password and may be provided with any other piece of information as part of security, you should treat such information with the strictest of confidence, and not disclose it to anyone. We have the right to disable any user password, at any time, if in our opinion there is a security risk or you have failed to comply with any of the provisions of these Terms and Conditions.

So that we can provide you with the Service please ensure that you keep all information that you upload onto the Site (including your name and address) correct and up-to-date, this is your responsibility. Always check all information before you make a purchase to ensure all your information is correct.

When you purchase goods and/or services from our Site you are entering into a legal contract with a Seller and that contract will be subject to these Terms and Conditions, the email confirmation of your order and the details on the product page are all part of the legal contract.

You should carefully review the Terms and Conditions, the email confirmation of your order and the applicable details on the product page. If there is any conflict or inconsistency between these Terms and Conditions and the email confirmation of your order or the applicable details on the product page, these Terms and Conditions will be the deciding terms to the extent of the conflict or inconsistency.

We cannot give any undertaking, that goods and/or services you purchase from Sellers through the Site will be of satisfactory quality, and this and any other such warranties (whether express or implied) are disclaimed by us absolutely to the fullest extent permitted by law. This disclaimer does not affect your statutory rights against the Seller. Where you order goods and/or services through the Site we will disclose your customer information related to that transaction to the relevant Seller.

We do not review or control, and are not responsible in any way for, listings provided by Sellers and no items offered for sale by a Seller through the Site will ever come into our possession.

Each order you place will be an offer by you to purchase the goods and/or services specified within it subject to the Terms and Conditions and the applicable details on the product page.

No order will be accepted by the Seller until we (acting as the commercial agent of the Seller) issue an email acknowledgement of the order. The contract between you and a Seller will relate only to those goods and/or services notified in the email acknowledgement of order.

You can purchase goods and/or services from the Site by using the payment methods we make available through our payment service providers. You acknowledge that these Terms and Conditions, and/or any transaction made by you via ethikel.com, do not create or imply any partnership, joint venture or trust relationship between us, you and/or the Seller. All prices will be shown in GBP and will be payable in GBP. You accept that some banks may charge you an additional fee for certain transactions (for example, international transactions). Item prices in the currencies displayed do not vary according to your location; delivery charges may vary depending on the destination you choose to have the item delivered or the speed in which they are delivered.

Although we aim to provide everyone who wishes to use our Site with a service in order to protect ourselves we retain the right to refuse to process a transaction for any reason or refuse service to anyone at any time at our sole discretion. We will not be liable to you or any third party by refusing or by reason of unwinding or suspending any transaction after processing has begun.

The delivery costs for each Seller vary according to the delivery methods they offer. Any delivery times quoted are in working days.

If you order goods from our Site for delivery outside the UK, they may be subject to import duties and taxes which are levied when the delivery reaches the specified destination. You will be responsible for payment of any such import duties and taxes. Please note that we have no control over these charges and cannot predict their amount. Please contact your local customs office for further information before placing your order.

Please see our Returns Policy if you wish to discuss or organise a return, replacement or refund of an item purchased through the Site. Unfortunately, some items are non-returnable and non-refundable, please see our Returns Policy for more information.

Promotions codes are provided by ethikel Limited. By using a promotional code you will be deemed to have read and understood these terms and conditions and agree to be bound by them.

If there is a conflict or inconsistency between the terms and conditions of the Site and these promotional code terms and conditions, these promotional code terms and conditions shall prevail to the extent of the conflict or inconsistency. The defined terms used in the Site terms and conditions shall also apply to these promotional code terms and conditions.

ethikel.com promotional codes can only be used on ethikel.com and towards the purchase of items currently featured on our Site, excluding delivery charges.

Promotional codes are an arrangement between you and us, and not between you and the Seller. Promotional codes cannot be used on the individual websites of any Sellers on ethikel.com.

Promotional codes cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer on ethikel.com, including (but not limited to) any other ethikel.com promotional code in the same transaction.

The discount associated with a promotional code is applied to your entire basket, excluding any delivery charges. Promotional codes should be entered where indicated on the payment page during checkout for the discount to apply.

Each promotional code will have a limited time period in which to be used and/or a maximum number of orders per code. The code cannot be used once these limits have been reached. Specific terms and conditions for each promotional code setting out any such limits can either be found in the communication you received with the code itself or on the specific promotional code terms and conditions page via the Site (which may be on, for example, a banner)..

ethikel.com reserves the right to suspend, change or cancel any promotional code, at any time, in the event of circumstances arising which make it necessary to do so. ethikel.com may update these terms from time to time and reserves the right to add additional terms and conditions for specific promotional codes as and where necessary. You should review the promotional code terms and conditions periodically for changes.

Promotional codes have no cash value, cannot be transferred and cannot be forwarded or reassigned.

Any refund you may be entitled to receive will not include the redemption value of the promotional code. You will receive no more than the amount you paid towards the final basket price.
