Purchase and Confirmation
In order to purchase any Web-Based Products you must provide the required information and pay the Applicable Fees. You must ensure that all information provided is complete and accurate. When you place an order for Web-Based Products, you are offering to purchase those Web-Based Products subject to these Web-Based Product Terms.
A legally binding agreement shall only come into existence once: (i) the Company has accepted your offer to purchase the Web-Based Products by sending you an order confirmation email and by giving you access to the Web-Based Products; and (ii) the Company has received from you (or on your behalf) either:
-
the entirety of the Applicable Fees if you choose to pay for the Web-Based Products with a one-time lump-sum payment;
-
the first instalment of the Applicable Fees if you choose to pay for the Web-Based Products in instalments.
these Web-Based Product Terms, together with your purchase offer and the order confirmation email, constitute the entire agreement between us (the “Contract”) and supersede and replace any other terms and conditions previously published by us and any other understanding, undertaking, representation, warranty, arrangement, promise or statement of any nature whatsoever made by us to you, whether oral, written or otherwise, relating to the subject matter of these Web-Based Product Terms. You acknowledge that you have not relied on any understanding, undertaking, representation, warranty, arrangement, promise or statement made or given by us or on our behalf, which is not set out in the Contract.
You must check the details on the order confirmation email when you receive it. If there are any errors, please contact us immediately at support@gingermenown.com.
Where your order consists of multiple Web-Based Products, each individual Web-Based Product will be treated by the Company as a separate offer to purchase. Acceptance of your offer to purchase one or more of the Web-Based Products will not be an acceptance by the Company of your offer to purchase any other Web-Based Products. We reserve the right, in our sole and absolute discretion and without the need to give a reason, to refuse to accept an offer to purchase one or more Web-Based Products. In such circumstances, no Contract will arise, and we will return any payment accompanying your purchase offer.
Before a Contract comes into existence between you and us, we reserve the right to increase or decrease the advertised Applicable Fees for a Web-Based Product and/or to amend any of the information contained in the Product Description. We also reserve the right to withdraw any Web-Based Products advertised for sale on the Website and/or in any Product Description.
Payment
The Applicable Fees for any Web-Based Products at any given time and any additional delivery charges payable in connection with the delivery of Physical Materials, if applicable, will be displayed on the Website and/or in the Product Description, and/or will be notified to you by a Company customer services representative. All amounts are payable in United States Dollars. The Applicable Fees are exclusive of sales tax. Further, any currency conversion costs or other charges incurred in making a payment shall be borne by you, and shall not be deductible from the amounts due to the Company.
Unless otherwise specified in respect of a particular Web-Based Product, the Applicable Fees are payable either:
-
with a one-time lump-sum payment, payable with your purchase offer; or
-
in instalments, with payments being due at certain times over a set period of time, as specified on the Website and/or in a Product Description and/or as notified to you by a Company customer services representative, with the first instalment being payable with your purchase offer.
Subsequent instalments will be automatically deducted from the debit/credit card you used to pay for the first instalment. By choosing to pay the Applicable Fees in instalments, you agree that:
-
it is your responsibility to ensure that the instalment payments are made on the due dates;
-
the Company and/or its service providers are authorized to collect the instalment payments from the debit/credit card you used to pay for the first instalment when such instalments become due and payable;
-
you will inform us by email at support@gingermenown.com if you change your debit/credit card or if your debit/credit card expires or is no longer when the next instalment becomes due and payable;
-
any failure to make payment of an instalment when due and payable constitutes a breach of the Contract and the Company may suspend or cancel your access to the Web-Based Products until the remaining instalment amounts are paid in full; and
-
you will not be entitled to a refund of any amounts already paid.
The option of paying the Applicable Fees in instalments is offered subject to availability. Acceptance of your offer to purchase the Web-Based Products and pay the Applicable Fees by instalments is at the sole discretion of the Company. The Company may withdraw the option of paying the Applicable Fees in instalments at any time in its sole discretion. Any such withdrawal shall not affect customers who have already purchased a Web-Based Product and are paying the Applicable Fees in instalments at the date of such withdrawal. The total amount paid for any Web-Based Products may differ depending on whether the Applicable Fees are paid for with a one-off lump sum payment or in instalments.
In the event that your purchase offer is accepted at a time when the amount of the Applicable Fees displayed on the Website and/or in any Product Description is incorrect, the Company will notify you as soon as it reasonably practicable after discovery thereof by the Company. If the correct amount of the Applicable Fees is higher than the amount displayed on the Website and/or in any Product Description, then the Company will contact you to notify you of the correct Applicable Fees, so you can decide whether or not you wish to continue with your order of the Web-Based Products at the increased Applicable Fees. If you decide that you would like to cancel your order, the Company will give you a full refund in respect of any amount you have already paid. If the correct Applicable Fees are lower, the Company will refund you the difference between the amount which you have paid and the correct Applicable Fees payable.
Physical Materials
A delivery charge may be payable by you to the Company in connection with the delivery of any Physical Materials. The details of any delivery charges will be set out on the Website and/or in any relevant Product Description and/or will be notified to you by a Company customer services representative. The Company will arrange for delivery of the Physical Materials to the person and address you give the Company at the time you make your order.
If Physical Materials are sent to you outside of the United States, you may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once the goods reach the specified destination. Any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you. The Company has no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country, so you should contact your local customs office for further information. Additionally, please note that when you order goods (including Physical Materials) from the Company, you are considered the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the country in which you are receiving the goods.
Risk of damage to, or loss of, any Physical Materials shall pass from the Company to you on delivery. Ownership of the Physical Materials will pass to you on the later of receipt of payment by the Company in full of all sums due to the Company in respect of the Physical Materials and delivery of the Physical Materials to you.
The Company must be notified of any queries, complaints or incomplete or incorrect deliveries within 14 days of you receiving the Physical Materials. If you do not notify the Company within this time period, the Company will not be obliged to correct your order and will not be responsible for any loss or damage suffered by you as a result.
Additional Materials
Additional Materials may be available as an add-on to a Web-Based Product. A charge may be payable for such Additional Materials (as set out in the information relating to such Additional Materials) and the delivery of such Additional Materials to you.
Any payment for Additional Materials and any delivery charges payable in connection with the delivery of Additional Materials, if applicable, must be paid in accordance with the terms hereof.
