Cookies

We use Cookies to further enhance the usability of the Website. Our cookies don't store sensitive information such as your name, address or payment details; they simply hold the 'key' that, once you've bought a product, is associated with this information. However if you'd prefer to restrict, block or delete cookies from thehomehut.com you can use your browser to do this.

Purchase of products

Orders

We will take all reasonable care, in so far as it is in our power to do so, to keep the details of your order secure, but in the absence of negligence by us, we cannot be held liable for any loss you may suffer if a third party procures unauthorised access to any data you provide when accessing or ordering from the Website.

Our Returns policy is incorporated into these Conditions.

Contract creation and electronic contracting

The stage that create the contract between you and us are as follows:

1. You place the order for your products on the website by pressing the Pay now button at the end of the check-out process.
2. We will send to you an order acknowledgement email. This is not an order confirmation or order acceptance from Home and Garden Products.
3. As your order leaves us, we will send you a dispatch confirmation email.

Order acceptance and the completion of the contract between you and us will take place on the dispatch to you of the Products ordered unless we have notified you that we do not accept your order or you have cancelled it in accordance with the instructions.

Please note that we are not responsible for the non-receipt of any emails you send us as we cannot control an IP from seeing our email address as 'junk mail'. Therefore please be careful when typing our email address info@thehomehut.com or add us into your address book to avoid any errors.

Non-acceptance of an order may be a result of one of the following:

• The product you ordered being unavailable from stock.
• Our inability to obtain authorisation for your payment.
• The identification of a pricing or product description error.
• You not meeting the eligibility to order criteria.
• A reasonable suspicion on our behalf that the delivery address is unknown to the person whose card is making the payment and that the goods have been ordered fraudulently.

The contract will be concluded in English.

Contract cancellation

Please note that you are entitled to cancel this contract if you want to, provided that you do this no longer than fourteen working days after the day on which you receive the Products. 

If you wish to exercise your right to cancel this contract prior to order dispatch, please contact us by phone on 01244 951614 or by email at info@thehomehut.com. Please note however that we do require written confirmation of this cancellation. If your order has already been dispatched, please follow the procedure set out in our Returns policy.

Please note that your right to return Products does NOT apply to Products that fall into the following categories: 

Description of products

Each Product purchased is sold subject to its Product Description which sets out additional Specific Conditions related to that Product including, without limitation, terms and conditions concerning estimated delivery dates and times, warranties, after-sales service and guarantees.

We will take all reasonable care to ensure that all details, descriptions and prices of Products appearing on the Website are correct at the time when the relevant information was entered onto the system. We are not infallible and although we aim to keep the Website as up to date as possible, the information including Product Descriptions appearing on this Website at a particular time may not always reflect the position precisely at the moment you place an order. We cannot confirm the price of a Product until your order is accepted in accordance with our Order acceptance policy.

Payment

All prices are inclusive of VAT (where applicable) at the current rates and are correct at the time of entering the information onto the system. The total cost of your order is the price of the Products ordered plus delivery charges as set out in the Delivery section of this Website. Payment can be made by any of the methods specified in the Payment section of this Website and payment will be debited and cleared from your account as set out in the Payment section of this Website.

You confirm that the credit/debit/store card or PayPal account that is being used is yours or you are an authorised user.

All credit/debit cardholders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to or does not, for any reason, authorise payment to us, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.

Refusal of transaction

We reserve the right to withdraw any Products from this Website at any time and/or remove or edit any materials or content on this Website. We may refuse to process a transaction for any reason or refuse service to anyone at any time at our sole discretion. We will not be liable to you or any third party by reason of our withdrawing any Product from this Website whether or not that Product has been sold; removing or editing any materials or content on the Website; refusing to process a transaction or unwinding or suspending any transaction after processing has begun.

To be eligible to purchase Products on this Website and lawfully enter into and form contracts on this Website under English law you must:

• Register by providing your real name, phone number, e-mail address, payment details and other requested information
• Be over 18 years of age
• Stipulate a delivery address in the United Kingdom or other territory as offered from time to time. Please note that PO box numbers, hotels and accommodation addresses are not normally acceptable and if provided we reserve the right to ask for additional information.
• Possess a valid credit or debit card issued by a bank acceptable to us or alternatively a confirmed PayPal account.

By making an offer to buy a Product, you specifically authorise us to transmit information (including any updated information) or to obtain information about you from third parties from time to time, including but not limited to your debit or credit card number or credit reports, to authenticate your identity, to validate your credit card, to obtain an initial credit card authorisation and to authorise individual purchase transactions.

Returns

If the goods are faulty or not as described, you must exercise the right to reject the goods within 30 days of delivery unless the expected life of the goods is shorter. If you ask for a replacement within the 30 days, the period is paused so that you have the remainder of the 30-day period or seven days (whichever is longer) to check whether the replacement is satisfactory and to decide whether to reject the goods. You can cancel your order in writing or over the phone, however we do require written confirmation of this.

Returns should be made in the original, undamaged packaging, and we reserve the right to withhold a percentage of the refund value of returned goods if the product or packaging is in such a condition that the item is not sellable or needs to be repackaged. It is essential that you take reasonable care in the return of the goods. Anything in plastic wrapping can be classed as consumed if the wrapping has been removed unnecessarily and therefore may not be eligible for a refund. The cost of returning the unwanted items remains with the customer. See our detailed return instructions.

Once we have received the returned goods, we will refund the item(s) 

If you choose to replace or reject your goods and the defect was discovered within 6 months of delivery, it is assumed that the fault was there at the time of delivery unless proven otherwise. If more than 6 months have passed, it is your responsibility to prove that the defect was there at the time of delivery.
