Terms & Conditions

Purchasing with Yaffie.com or any of its affiliated websites implies your agreement to the following terms and conditions, regardless of whether or not you decide to register with us or place an order. Should you not consent to these conditions, kindly refrain from using our websites.

In these terms and conditions, references to “we”, “us”, or "our websites" pertain to yaffie.com.

Most areas of our Website are accessible without registration. Nevertheless, specific sections of our Websites require registration for access.

We reserve the right to modify these terms and conditions at any time by updating this posting. It is important to check our Websites periodically to review the current terms and conditions since they are binding. Certain provisions of these terms and conditions may be superseded by expressly designated legal notices or terms located on particular pages of our websites. Should you choose not to accept any new terms and conditions following our notice, kindly refrain from further usage of our websites.

You are deemed to place an order with us upon completion of the online checkout process. We will send you an order acknowledgement by email with details of the products you have ordered. If you do not receive this email, please check your spam folder, as automated replies may trigger your email provider's spam filters.

Our acceptance of an order takes place upon dispatch of the order. The purchase contract will be made upon dispatch of the order, even if payment has already been processed, unless we have communicated to you that we do not accept your order or you have cancelled it.

Please note that we reserve the right to brand our personalized products.

We may refuse to accept an order:

(a) Where goods are unavailable

(b) Where we cannot obtain authorization for your payment

(c) In case of pricing or product description errors

(d) If you do not meet any eligibility criteria set out in our terms and conditions

(e) For deliveries outside the countries listed

(f) If your order for personalized products contains threatening, defamatory, obscene, indecent, seditious, offensive, pornographic, abusive, liable to incite racial hatred, discriminatory, menacing, scandalous, inflammatory, blasphemous, in breach of confidence, in breach of privacy, or which may cause annoyance or inconvenience.

(g) If we believe your order is for commercial or other non-domestic concerns.

For packing, carriage, insurance, and other relevant charges, we charge separately, with appropriate rates specified in our pricing structure elsewhere on our websites.

We will deliver the Products ordered by you to the address provided when making your order. If any of the details you have given us in your delivery address are incorrect, we are not liable for any items that have not been received.

You may specify a delivery address different from your billing address if you wish to deliver the Products to a friend, relative, or your place of work.

Delivery will be made as soon as possible within our normal working hours of Monday to Friday, 9 am to 5:30 pm. We process and dispatch orders only during these times. Delivery and dispatch timescales mentioned on the website do not include weekends or bank holidays.

While we endeavor to deliver goods within the specified timescale, unforeseen circumstances may prevent delivery in the given time, for which we cannot accept liability or costs incurred due to failed or delayed deliveries. The same applies to products sent directly from all our partnership manufacturers.

If the product(s) you have ordered do not arrive within 28 days of placing the order, we accept no liability unless you have contacted us via email within this period.

In the event you have not received your order, we must allow the following timescales before we can take further action, and claim back from the relevant carrier for lost items:

14 working days from date of dispatch

 

In the event that we reproduce an item for you and subsequently the original is returned as undelivered, we reserve the right to charge an administrative fee up to 100% of the sales price of the reproduced product. 

Please note: we will not be held liable for any late deliveries if delays occur by causes beyond our reasonable control including, without limitation:

(a) fire; (b) severe weather conditions; (c) industrial dispute; (d) strike or labour disputes (e)any acts of god or similar accident that we cannot control.

For non-personalised and non-custom items, you have the legal right to cancel your order within 7 working days of receiving the goods. However, this does not apply to certain items which we have made, personalised or customised specifically for you. Please pay attention to the fact that most of our listed products online will be custom made and personalised.

If you wish to cancel your order, you must notify us by contacting us through the support system or by email. This must be before the items have been sent into production. If the ordered goods have already been produced for you, we will no longer accept order cancellations due to the custom-made property.

Please note: In order to provide fast service, most of the listed products will be immediately sent for production after your ordering process online. Please check your order details on screen or the confirmation email carefully, especially the 'product option' content, which we will follow exactly to start the crafting process.

We reserve the right to cancel your order at any time and issue a full refund.

The provisions of this clause do not affect your statutory rights.

If you are not completely satisfied with your non-personalised goods, simply return them to us at any time within 14 working days of receipt. The costs of returning goods to us shall be borne by you. Unfortunately, we are unable to refund postage costs on unwanted non-personalised items. For your own protection, we recommend that you send the parcel back to using a delivery service that insures you for the value of the goods as we cannot be held responsible for items damaged or lost in the post.

Your rights to return the goods (and get the refunds) to (from) us will not apply in the following circumstances:

-Any products that we have made, personalised or customised specifically for you

-Where, in our opinion, you have not taken reasonable care of goods whilst in your possession and have not been returned with the original packaging.

-If you have made a spelling mistake on your order (for engraving or inscription, etc.) and it has been sent for production.

-You have disposed of the item you have an issue with

-A perishable item that has been consumed/disposed of.

-If you return an item because of an error on our part, or because it is defective, we will happily refund the full value of the item. You can contact us by email. Our customer service will request photo proof from you to show the damage/your raised issue. Without such photo proof, the refund/return process will not be pushed forward by our customer support team. After we accept your return/refund request, the item(s) must be returned in the condition in which you received it within 30 days of delivery. By the very nature of those personalised & custom made products, they cannot be resold. And therefore we cannot accept any return/refunds requests if you just don't like the ordered item(s) or have a change of mind after the crafting process starts.

Please note: You have a duty to return the item to us, and the cost of doing so is your responsibility, except if the item is made with a fault by us.

This returns policy does not affect your statutory rights.

If the item you received is not what you originally ordered, please contact us by Customer Support Portal, quoting your order number, your name and address, details of the product and the reason for return, and whether you'd like a refund or a replacement. We will then advise on how to proceed.

If the item you received is faulty (after photo proof check as above terms mentioned), please contact our customer care team quoting your order number, your name and address, details of the product and the reason for return, and whether you'd like a refund or a replacement. We will then advise on how to proceed. If the item is faulty, please return it to us within 30 days of receipt. Refunds cannot be given if the fault is caused by your misuse.

The colour or size of the product you receive may not match the colour/size as displayed by our website images on your computer monitor. Please be aware that if colour is important to you, your order is placed at your own risk. 

In the paragraph discussing photo uploads, the phrase "has been granted by the owner of any image" should be changed to "has been granted by the owner of the image." Additionally, the sentence "We will not be responsible for any copyright infringement by the customer" should be revised to "We will not be responsible for any copyright infringement committed by the customer."

In the second paragraph of the license section, the sentence "If you breach any of the terms in these terms and conditions, your permission to use our websites automatically terminates and you must immediately destroy any downloaded or printed extracts from our websites" should be rephrased to "If you violate any of the terms and conditions outlined here, your permission to use our websites will be automatically terminated, and you must delete any downloaded or printed extracts from our websites."

In the first sentence of the service access section, the word "websites" should be changed to "website."

In the paragraph discussing visitor material and conduct, the sentence "We and our nominees will be free to copy, disclose, distribute, incorporate and otherwise use such material and all data, images, sounds, text and other things embodied therein for any and all commercial or non-commercial purposes" should be revised to "We and our nominees will be free to copy, disclose, distribute, incorporate, and use such material, as well as all data, images, sounds, text, and other things embodied therein, for any and all commercial or non-commercial purposes."
