you are legally capable of entering into binding contracts; and
you are at least 18 years old.
How the contract is formed between you and us
After placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy a Product. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail once we receive payment for the Products (Email Confirmation). The contract between us (Contract) will only be formed when we send you the Email Confirmation.
The Contract will relate only to those Products whose dispatch we have confirmed in the Email Confirmation. We will not be obliged to supply any other Products which may have been part of your order until the dispatch of such Products has been confirmed in a separate Email Confirmation.
Consumer rights
If you are contracting as a consumer, you may cancel a Contract at any time within seven working days, beginning on the day after you received the Products. In this case, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Products in accordance with our refunds policy (set out in clause 4.5 below).
To cancel a Contract, you must inform us in writing. You must also return the Products to us as soon as reasonably practicable, and at your own cost. You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the Products while they are in your possession. If you fail to comply with this obligation, we may have a right of action against you for compensation.
You will not have any right to cancel a Contract for the supply of any consumable or perishable products which by their nature cannot be returned
This provision does not affect your other statutory rights as a consumer.
If you return a Product to us because you have cancelled the Contract between us within the seven-day cooling-off period (see clause 4.1 above), we will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case, within 30 days of the day on which you gave us notice of cancellation. In this case, we will refund the price of the Product 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 or where you have an account with Creative Nature and you elect to receive store credit rather than a refund, we will credit you with store credit of an amount equal to any refund due to you.
Availability and delivery
The Products are sold subject to availability. If on receipt of your order the Products you have ordered are not in stock, we will inform you as soon as possible and issue a refund in respect of any sum that has been paid by you for the Products.
The Products will not be delivered until we receive payment in full for the Products.
Subject to clause 5.2, your order will be fulfilled by the delivery date set out in the Email Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then within 30 days of the date of the Email Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances.
If you fail to take delivery of the Products, then, except where this failure is caused by our failure to comply with these terms or by an event beyond your control:
we will store the Products until delivery takes place and may charge you a reasonable sum to cover expenses and insurance; and
we shall have no liability to you for late delivery.
If you have not taken delivery of the Products within two weeks of our notifying you that they are ready, we may, after giving you reasonable prior notice in writing, resell or otherwise dispose of part or all of the Products and, after deducting reasonable storage and selling costs, refund the price you paid for the Products.
Risk and title
The Products will be your responsibility from the time of delivery.
Ownership of the Products will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products, including delivery charges.
Price and payment
The price of the Products and our delivery charges will be as quoted on our site from time to time, except in cases of obvious error.
Product prices include VAT. However, if the rate of VAT changes between the date of your order and the date of delivery, we will adjust the VAT you pay, unless you have already paid for the Products in full before the change in VAT takes effect.
Product prices and delivery charges are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which we have already sent you an Email Confirmation.
Our site contains a large number of Products and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products listed on our site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where a Product’s correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Product to you. If a Product’s correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the Product, or reject your order and notify you that we are rejecting it.
If the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably recognised by you as an error, we do not have to provide the Products to you at the incorrect (lower) price.
Payment for all Products must be by credit or debit card as shown on our site.
Defective Products
We warrant to you that any Product purchased from us through our site will, on delivery be of satisfactory quality, and be reasonably fit for all the purposes for which products of that kind are commonly supplied.

They shall not form part of the Contract and shall have no contractual force.
In the unlikely event that the Products do not conform with clause 9.1 please let us know as soon as possible after delivery. We will collect the Products on a date agreed between us or ask you to return the Products to us at our cost and once we have checked that the Products are faulty, we will:
provide you with a full refund and any applicable delivery charges and any reasonable costs you incur in returning the item to us; or
replace the Products;
We will usually process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case, within 30 days of the day we notified you via email that you were entitled to a refund.
These terms will apply to any replacement Products we supply to you.
Our liability

Severability
