Your right to cancel
If you are contracting as a consumer, you may cancel a Contract at any time within fourteen (14) working days (cooling-off period), beginning on the day after you received the Artwork. In this case, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Artwork in accordance with our refunds policy (set out below).
To cancel a Contract, you must inform us in writing. You must also return the Artwork to us as soon as reasonably practicable, and at your own cost. You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the Artwork while it is in your possession. If you fail to comply with this obligation, we may have a right of action against you for compensation.
Details of your statutory right of cancellation, and an explanation of how to exercise it, are provided in the Dispatch Confirmation. This provision does not affect your other statutory rights as a consumer.
If you return an Artwork to us because you have cancelled the Contract between us within the cooling-off period, we will process the refund due to you within 30 days of the day on which you gave us notice of cancellation. In this case, we will refund the price of the Artwork in full, and any applicable delivery charges.
However, you will be responsible for the cost of returning the item to us.
We will usually refund any money received from you using the same method originally used by you to pay for your purchase.
Our Liability
Subject as set out below, if either of us fails to comply with these Terms, neither of us shall be responsible for any losses that the other suffers as a result, except for those losses which are a foreseeable consequence of the failure to comply with these Terms at the time we entered into this contract with one another.
We only supply the Artwork for domestic and private use. We shall have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits in any way our liability for: death or personal injury caused by our negligence; fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; any breach of the obligations implied by section 12 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 or section 2 of the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982; or defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
Events beyond reasonable control
Neither of us shall be liable to the other for any failure or delay in performing our respective obligations under the contract to purchase Artwork to the extent that such failure or delay is caused by a Force Majeure Event.
A Force Majeure Event means any event beyond a party’s reasonable control, which by its nature could not have been foreseen, or, if it could have been foreseen, was unavoidable, including strikes, lock-outs or other industrial disputes (whether involving its own workforce or a third party’s), failure of energy sources or transport network, acts of God, war, terrorism, riot, civil commotion, interference by civil or military authorities, national or international calamity, armed conflict, malicious damage, breakdown of plant or machinery, nuclear, chemical or biological contamination, sonic boom, explosions, collapse of building structures, fires, floods, storms, earthquakes, loss at sea, epidemics, pandemics, or similar events, natural disasters or extreme adverse weather conditions, or default of suppliers or subcontractors.
Our right to vary these Terms
We have the right to revise and amend these Terms from time to time.
You will be subject to the policies and Terms in force at the time that you order products from us, unless any change to those policies or these Terms is required to be made by law or governmental authority (in which case it will apply to orders previously placed by you), or if we notify you of the change to those policies or these Terms before we send you the Dispatch Confirmation (in which case we have the right to assume that you have accepted the change to the Terms, unless you notify us to the contrary within seven working days of receipt by you of the Artwork).
General
If any court or competent authority decides that any of the provisions of these Terms are invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, the term will, to that extent only, be severed from the remaining terms, which will continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.
If we fail, at any time while these Terms are in force, to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or if we do not exercise any of our rights or remedies under these Terms, that will not mean that we have waived such rights or remedies and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, that will not mean that we will automatically waive any subsequent default by you. No waiver by us of any of these Terms shall be effective unless we expressly say that it is a waiver and we tell you so in writing.
A person who is not party to these Terms shall not have any rights under or in connection with them under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.
These Terms shall be governed by the laws of England and Wales, and we both agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English and Welsh courts.
