3.2 If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your Order, we will inform you of this in writing and we will either not charge you for the Product or we will offer you an alternative Product of equal value. This might be because the Product is out of stock; because of unexpected limits on our resources that we could not reasonably plan for; because we have identified an error in the price or description of the Product; or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified. If the information received by you is not in line with our delivery guidelines, we reserve the right to cancel your order and issue a refund. It is your responsibility to input the correct delivery information at checkout, we cannot be held responsible for failed deliveries due to incorrect information supplied by you.

7.3 We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If our supply of the Products is delayed by an event outside our control, that we become aware of, then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay.

7.4 If you are not at home when the Product is delivered. If no one is available at your address to take delivery and the Products cannot be posted through your letterbox, our third party courier should either leave you a note, or send you an email or text message, informing you of how to rearrange delivery or collect the products from an alternative address, such as a neighbour, a local depot or designated collection outlet.
7.5 If you do not re-arrange delivery. If, after a failed delivery to you, you do not re-arrange delivery or collect them from an alternative address, a delivery depot or designated collection outlet, we (or our third party courier) will contact you for further instructions and we may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange delivery or collection we may end the Contract and Clause 10.2 will apply.
7.6 When you become responsible for the products.

8. HOW TO BREAK UP WITH US
8.1 Your rights to end your contract with us. Your rights when you end the Contract will depend on what you have bought, whether there is anything wrong with it, and when you decide to end the Contract:
a) If you want to end the Contract because of something we have done or have told you we are going to do, see Clause 8.2;
b) If you have just changed your mind about the product, see Clauses 8.3, 8.4 and 8.5. You may be able to get a refund if you are within the Cooling-Off Period (as defined in Clause 8.5 below), but this may be subject to deductions and you will have to pay the costs of return of any Products;
c) If what you have bought is faulty or not as advertised you may have a legal right to end the Contract (or to get the Product repaired or replaced or to get some or all of your money back), see Clause 11.
8.2 Ending the Contract because of something we have done or are going to do. If you are ending a Contract for a reason set out at (a) to (e) below the Contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any Products which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:
a) we have told you about an upcoming change to these Terms which you do not agree to (see clause 6.2);
b) we have told you about an error in the price or description of the Product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed (see Clause 12.2);
c) there is a risk that supply of the Products may be substantially delayed because of events outside our control (see Clause 7.3);
d) we have suspended supply of the Products for technical reasons, or notify you we are going to suspend them for technical reasons, in each case for a period of more than 14 days (See Clause 7.9); or
e) you have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong.
8.3 Exercising your right to change your mind (Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013). For most Products bought online you have a legal right to change your mind within the Cooling-Off Period (as defined in Clause 8.5) and receive a refund. This right does not apply in respect of the Products set out in Clause 8.4
8.4 When you don’t have the right to change your mind. You do not have a right to change your mind in respect of:
a) Products that have been personalised or monogrammed; or
b) Products that are sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes (for example, styling sprays and potions), once these have been unsealed after you receive them.
8.5 How long do I have to change my mind? You have 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the Products (the Cooling-Off Period). This is unless your Products are split into several deliveries over different days. In this case you have until 14 days after the day (or someone you nominate) receives the last delivery of the Products to change your mind about the Products.

9.2 Returning products. If you request an exchange, replacement or refund for any reason after the Products have been dispatched to you, or after you have received them, you must return the Products to us. If you are exercising your right to change your mind and wish to end the Contract as provided for in Clause 8.1, you must send the Products to us within 14 days of telling us you wish to end the contract.
9.3 When sending the Products to us, it is your responsibility to ensure that we receive the Products safely and securely to the delivery address stated on either the Cancellation Form or Returns Form. We do not accept any responsibility for Products that are lost or damaged in the post and will not be required to refund you, in the event of such circumstances.
9.4 When we will pay the costs of return. We will pay the costs of return:
a) if the Products are faulty and you are claiming under our Consumer Warranty or under your legal rights as per clause 11.5; or

In all other circumstances you must pay the costs of return.
9.5 How we will refund you. We will refund you the price you paid for the Products including standard delivery costs, by the method you used for payment. However, we may make deductions from the price, as described below.
9.6 Deductions from refunds if you are exercising your right to change your mind during the Cooling-off Period.
We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the Products, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. All returned Products need to be received in a resalable condition to be entitled for any refund. If you have received a promotional item in your order, the full contents need to be returned to qualify for a full refund. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the Products and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount on request by us.
9.7 When your refund will be made. We will make any refunds due to you as soon as possible. If you are exercising your right to change your mind then, subject to the safe receipt of the Products and in line with Clause 9.3, your refund will be made within 14 days of you telling us you have changed your mind.
10. OUR RIGHTS TO END THE CONTRACT
10.1 We may end the Contract if you break it. We may end the Contract for a Product at any time by writing to you if you breach your obligations under the Contract. This may apply, for example, if you do not, within a reasonable time, allow us to deliver the Products to you or collect the Products from us.
10.2 You must compensate us if you break the contract. If we end the Contract in the situation set out in Clause 10.1 we will refund any money you have paid in advance for Products we have not provided but we may deduct or charge you a percentage of the price as compensation for the net costs we incur as a result of your breaking the Contract. This may include, for example, our storage costs or any further delivery costs.
10.3 We may withdraw the Product. We may write to you to let you know that we are going to stop providing the Product. We will let you know at least seven (7) days in advance of our stopping the supply of the Product and will refund any sums you have paid in advance for Products which will not be provided.
11. IF SOMETHING’S NOT RIGHT
11.1 How to tell us about problems. When you receive your Products, you must check them and contact us as soon as possible to see whether there is any damages, or the Products are not as advertised. If you have any questions or complaints about the Product, please write to us at info@icicosmetic.co.uk , or contact our customer service (on the telephone number on our Site) providing us with photographic evidence as and where possible.
11.2 Your options if a Product is faulty or not as advertised. If a Product is faulty or not as advertised, you can choose whether to claim under our Consumer Warranty (see Clause 11.3) or in accordance with your legal rights under consumer law (see Clause 11.5).
11.3 THE WARRANTY
a) We guarantee that your Products will be free from manufacturing defects during the time periods set out below (Consumer Warranty). Your right to claim under our Consumer Warranty is in addition to your legal rights under consumer law (see Clause 11.5)
b) Consumer Warranty Remedies. If you make a claim under the Consumer Warranty during the relevant Consumer Warranty period, we will (at our option):
i. replace the Product;
ii. repair the Product, using new or previously used parts that are equivalent to new in
performance and reliability; or
iii. provide you with a refurbished product, which will be the same age/model/condition of
the Product that you originally purchased; or
iv. if your claim is in respect of a Limited Edition or Discontinued Product, we will
provide a suitable replacement of equal value. However, the colour of the replacement product may differ to the original Product.
c) Replacement Irons. In the event that we provide replacement irons (in accordance with Clause 11.4 b), the Consumer Warranty will apply to the replacement irons for the remainder of the Consumer Warranty period, as calculated from the date of purchase of the original Product that we have replaced.
d) Out of Warranty Repair Service. In addition to our Consumer Warranty, we offer a Product repair service for any Products which are not covered by our Consumer Warranty (for example, because the defect occurs outside of the Consumer Warranty period or because the defect is caused by accidental damage). Please email us at info@icicosmetic.co.uk for information about the repair service and prices. We may offer a like-for-like replacement or refurbished Product instead of repairing your Product, but we do not guarantee that the replacement or refurbished Product will be the same colour as the original Product.
11.5 Summary of your legal rights under consumer law.
a) The Consumer Rights Act 2015 says your Products must be as described, fit for purpose and of satisfactory quality. If you feel that any Product you receive does not meet this requirement, then you may have a legal right to have the Product refunded, repaired or replaced, depending on the amount of time that has passed since the Product was received by you. For more information please visit the Citizens Advice website at www.adviceguide.org.uk. This legal right is separate and additional to your contractual rights under our Consumer Warranty (as described in Clause 11.3). Nothing in these terms will affect your legal rights.
b) If you wish to exercise your legal right to have Products refunded, repaired or replaced, you must contact us and arrange for the Products to be returned to us as set out in clause 9. We will ask you to post the Product back to us and we will pay the costs of postage. For a return label, please email us at info@icicosmetic.co.uk or call our customer services team (on the telephone number on our Site).
12. PRICE AND PAYMENT
12.1 Where to find the price for the Product. The price of the Product (which includes VAT) will be the price indicated on the Site when you placed your Order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the Product advised to you is correct. However please see Clause 12.2 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the Product you Order. We reserve the right to change our prices at our discretion.
12.2 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products we sell may be incorrectly priced on our Site. We will normally check prices before accepting your Order so that, where the Product’s correct price at your Order date is less than our stated price at your Order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the Product’s correct price at your Order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your Order. If we accept and process your Order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the Contract, require you to return any Products provided to you and (following our safe receipt of such Products) refund you any sums you have paid.
12.3 When you must pay and how you must pay. We accept payment with all major credit and debit cards, You must pay for the Products at the time of submitting your Order and before we dispatch them.
13. EXTRA BITS
13.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these Terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this Contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the Contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
13.2 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the products as summarised at Clause 11.5; and for defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
