INFORMATION ABOUT MOONCUP AND OUR WEBSITE

Our Website is owned and managed, operated and maintained by Mooncup. You can contact us by writing to &SISTERS Ltd, JP Creative, 53 Cavendish Road, Clapham, London, SW12 0BL, United Kingdom, or by emailing us at [email protected].

We may need to make changes to our Website from time to time. Changes may include changing the products we sell or the terms of sale for those products. Similarly, we may need to suspend the Website, for example for repairs, planned maintenance or upgrades. While we will do our best to keep our Website available, we will not be liable to you if we do need to make any changes or restrict access for any period of time.

PURCHASING OUR PRODUCTS

To order any of our Products, please follow the instructions in our online purchase form. Once you have provided all the information we need to process your order you will be directed to one of the payment providers our Website identifies, e.g. SagePay, Paypal and Applepay. Once that payment has been confirmed your Order will come through to us. We may from time to time need to conduct security and other verification procedures in relation to the information you provide, and by placing an Order with us you agree to our doing so.

By placing an Order with us you also warrant that you are legally capable of entering into binding contracts, that you are not in any way prohibited by any local laws to agree to these Terms or to purchase any of our Products, that the information you have provided to Mooncup is true, accurate and correct. If any of that information, including without limitation your delivery address, changes then please contact us so that we can update our records.

FORMATION OF CONTRACT

Once payment for your Order has been processed we will send you an order confirmation email. Your Order constitutes an offer to us to buy one of our Products so our order confirmation email is our confirmation that we have received your offer. We will confirm that we have accepted your Order by sending you confirmation by email that your Order has been dispatched. The contract between you and Mooncup will only be formed when we send you confirmation that any particular goods have been dispatched and will relate only to those Products for which we have confirmed dispatch.

PRICE AND PAYMENTS

Product prices and delivery charges are set out on our site. Unless our Website states otherwise, the prices on the Website include all applicable value added taxes. We reserve the right to change our prices at any time.

We of course make every effort to ensure the prices on our Website are correct. If for any reason they are not we will inform you of the correct price of any Product you have sought to Order and you will then have the option to proceed with your Order, subject to you paying the correct price, or to cancel your Order.

You can pay for our Products using PayPal, SagePay or ApplePay (or another payment provider if our Website identifies alternatives). If you do not complete the payment process or if payment is not received in full (including any applicable taxes and delivery charges), we may not process your Order, so please ensure that you do complete all the steps on our Website or as directed by SagePay, PayPal or ApplePay to make sure your Order can be processed by us.

If delivery of the Product(s) you are ordering is to an address outside the United Kingdom, additional taxes and charges (such as importation taxes and sales taxes) are included in €35.00 shipping cost added at checkout.

DISPATCH AND DELIVERY

We ship from our UK hub for delivery to the UK and selected countries in the EU and worldwide.
We aim to dispatch your order from our warehouse before 5pm on the next business day.
Delivery times depend on destination country:
If you are in the UK you can expect next working day delivery but if you have not received your goods within five (5) days of receipt of the dispatch confirmation then please get in touch.
For EU destinations the delivery can take between 4-8 working days but if you have not received your goods within ten (10) days of receipt of the dispatch confirmation then please get in touch.

The delivery service we use depends on the destination country. For deliveries in the United Kingdom we use a tracked next day delivery as our default delivery service. For this service, delivery charges are included in the price set out on our Website.

You will become the owner of the Products you have ordered on delivery to you, as long as we have received payment in full for those Products.

CHANGES TO YOUR ORDER, CANCELLATION RIGHTS AND RETURNS

We package our Products in the most environmentally friendly manner possible, in keeping with our company ethos, and so do not use large quantities of wrapping or packaging. For this reason, coupled with the hygiene issues associated with our Products, we cannot accept returns of any of our Products unless they are faulty.

Once your Order has been processed by us you will not be able to change or cancel that Order or return any Products to us unless they are faulty.

FAULTY, DEFECTIVE OR DAMAGED PRODUCTS

If any of our Products are inherently defective or damaged in transit, then subject to us agreeing that the relevant Product is defective or has been damaged in transit to you, we will provide you with a replacement, or if the same Product is unavailable, then a suitable alternative if possible or, at our discretion, a refund. We will bear the delivery costs incurred by you in returning the defective or damaged Product to us as long as you provide us with documentary evidence supporting those delivery costs and as long as we agree that the Product is defective or damaged. You understand that the life of our Products is dependent on your use of them and that our Products are subject to normal wear and tear. Products that have deteriorated because of use and normal wear and tear will not be replaced, and we cannot take back or replace any Products that have been used.

ORDERS FOR DELIVERY OUTSIDE THE UNITED KINGDOM

While we make every effort to work with the best delivery systems throughout the world, we may not always be able to confirm that your Order has been delivered to the designated country of the address set out in your order confirmation. Although we send all orders using a tracked service we cannot give any guarantees that your Order will be delivered within a particular timescale, in the form in which it was originally packaged by Mooncup, or at all.

If delivery of the Product(s) you are ordering is to an address outside the United Kingdom, additional taxes and charges (such as importation taxes and sales taxes) are included in €35.00 shipping cost added at checkout.

For all deliveries to locations outside the United Kingdom, you are deemed to be an importer of the Products and it is your responsibility to comply with any and all local laws and regulations that may apply in relation to the Products you have ordered.

Mooncup does not represent or warrant that the Website or the Products made available for purchase on the Website are appropriate or lawful, or that the Products and/or the delivery of them comply with any legal or regulatory requirements, in locations outside the United Kingdom. Whilst we make our products available for customers outside the UK, our marketing may not be specific to any particular country. Similarly, we have not translated our labelling and usage guides into every possible language, so you acknowledge that you are responsible for satisfying yourself that our products are suitable for you and that you are able to use them correctly. We will not be liable to you or anyone else for any breach by you of any local laws arising from or in connection with your purchase or use of our Products, or from delivery of those Products to you.
