Descriptions & Product Information
Alison Hardcastle has made every effort to ensure that photographs, colours, dimensions and product descriptions represent our products as accurately as possible.
Slight variations in appearance and colour can occur due to the production process, the lighting when photographed or your computers monitor settings.
Goods that have been hand printed or made by hand are done so to a high and consistent standard – however we cannot guarantee they are all exactly the same.
Cards are blank inside unless stated otherwise.
Accuracy of Billing and Account Information
We reserve the right to refuse any order you place with us. We may, in our sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household or per order. These restrictions may include orders placed by or under the same customer account, the same credit card, and/or orders that use the same billing and/or shipping address. In the event that we make a change to or cancel an order, we may attempt to notify you by contacting the e-mail and/or billing address/phone number provided at the time the order was made. We reserve the right to limit or prohibit orders that, in our sole judgment, appear to be placed by dealers, resellers or distributors.
You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase and account information for all purchases made at our store. You agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address and credit card numbers and expiration dates, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed.
For more detail, please review our Returns Policy.
Shipping
We aim to deliver all mainland UK orders within 5 working days using Royal Mail postal service. Some products such as prints and some stationery will not fit through a standard letterbox so it is likely you will receive a card explaining rearrangement of delivery.
Sometimes due to busy times or unforeseen circumstances deliveries may take longer. If you have not received your delivery within 7 working days (and have checked that a card has not been left or the item left in a safe place or with a neighbour) please contact us on info@alisonhardcastle.co.uk.
Please note that import duties and shipping taxes are your responsibility.
Refund Policy
We hope that you like your Alison Hardcastle product. However if you are not entirely happy you must notify us and return your unwanted products for a refund within 10 working days of the date received. If it is simply unwanted the product must be returned as new and in a saleable condition. Please use adequate insurance/tracked postal service and obtain proof of postage from your Post Office when sending the item as we cannot refund products damaged or lost in transit. We will check the returned product and notify you as soon as possible as to your refund entitlement.
We will refund the product in full but unfortunately we cannot refund the return postage. We will refund any money using the same method as original payment was made. This does not affect your statutory rights as a consumer.
Damaged products
All Alison Hardcastle products are quality checked in our studio but if you do receive a faulty product please notify us within 48 hours of receipt of your delivery. We will then arrange a refund or exchange depending on which is decided. We will on some occasions ask for photographs of the damage so we can assess whether it is necessary for you to return the item or not. Please obtain proof of postage as we cannot refund items lost in transit. We recommend you always check your product upon delivery. We will refund any money using the same method as original payment was made. This does not affect your statutory rights as a consumer.
Confidentiality
We take great care to keep all customer and trade partner information confidential. Any information collated by ourselves is used strictly for our sole use. We would never supply customer details to a third party and only use the mailing list as a way of making the customer aware of offers, products and services which may be of interest and beneficial to the customer.
