We will accept orders when we've checked them
We want to ensure that your order is correct; therefore, when we receive your order, we will confirm safe receipt and contact you if there are any problems.
Sometimes we may reject orders
This doesn’t happen very often, but sometimes we may reject orders, for example, because a product is unexpectedly out of stock, a credit reference is unsatisfactory, we can't verify your age (where the product is age-restricted), you are located outside our delivery areas, or the product was mispriced by us. When this happens, we let you know as soon as possible and refund any sums you have paid.
We charge you when we accept your order
However, for some products, we may take payment at regular intervals where appropriate, as explained to you during the order process. You will own your product once we have received payment in full.
We charge interest on late payments
If we're unable to collect any payment you owe us, we charge interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 2% a year above the Bank of England base rate from time to time. This interest accrues on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You pay us the interest together with any overdue amount.
We pass on some increases in VAT
If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
We're not responsible for delays outside our control
If our supply of your product is delayed by an event outside our control, for example, if we experience any technical issues with our website or delivery is delayed due to no fault of our own, we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and do what we can to reduce the delay. As long as we do this, we won't compensate you for the delay, but if the delay is likely to be substantial, you can contact our Customer Service Team to end the contract and receive a refund for any product.
Products can vary slightly from their descriptions
A product's true colour may not exactly match that shown on your device or in our marketing, or its packaging may be slightly different.
We may charge you if you don't give us information we need
We may charge you additional sums if you don't give us information we've asked for about how we can access your property for delivery or provide us with incorrect delivery information.
If you bought online or over the telephone, you have a legal right to change your mind
Your legal right to change your mind: for most of our products bought online or over the telephone, you have a legal right to change your mind about your purchase and receive a refund of what you paid for it, including the delivery costs. If the product has already been shipped to you, we won’t be able to refund the delivery cost. This is subject to some conditions, as set out below.
You have 14 days to change your mind for products bought online or over the telephone.
When you can't change your mind
You can't change your mind about an order for:
- Products sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes, once these have been unsealed after you receive them;
- Goods that are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised;
- Goods which become mixed inseparably with other items after their delivery.
The deadline for changing your mind
If you change your mind about a product, you must let us know no later than 14 days after the day we deliver it. If the product is for regular delivery (for example, a subscription), you can only change your mind after the first delivery. If your purchase is split into several deliveries over different days, the period runs from the day after the last delivery.
How to let us know
To let us know you want to change your mind, contact our Customer Service Team: info@active-silver.co.uk or 07914 694549.
You have to return the product at your own cost
You have to return your product (and any free gifts provided with it) to us within 14 days of telling us you have changed your mind. Returns are at your own cost unless we offered free returns when you bought the product. You can:
- Send the product back to us using an established delivery service. If you do this, you should keep a receipt or other evidence from the delivery service that proves you have sent it and when you sent it. If you don’t do this and we don’t receive the goods at all or within a reasonable time, we won't be able to refund you the price. For help with returns, including our collection arrangements for products that can't be posted, see our Returns Process.
We only refund standard delivery costs
If it’s been agreed that we will cover the cost of your return, we will only be able to refund the cost of standard delivery. We don't refund any extra you have paid for express delivery or delivery at a particular time.
We reduce your refund if you have used or damaged a product
If you handle the product in a way which would not be acceptable in-store, we reduce your refund to compensate us for its reduced value. For example, we reduce your refund if the product's condition is not "as new," the product-branded packaging is damaged, or accessories are missing. In some cases, because of the way you have treated the product, no refund may be due. Our Customer Service Team: info@active-silver.co.uk or 07914 694549 can advise you on whether we're likely to reduce your refund.
When and how we refund you
If you tell us you've changed your mind about a product that hasn't been delivered, we refund you as soon as possible and within 14 days from your order date. If you're sending your product back to us, we refund you within 14 days of receiving it (or receiving evidence you've sent it to us). We refund you by the method you used for payment. We don't charge a fee for the refund.
You can end an ongoing contract (find out how)
We tell you when and how you can end an ongoing contract with us (for example, for a subscription to goods) during the order process and we confirm this information to you in writing after we've accepted your order. If you have any questions, please contact our Customer Service Team: info@active-silver.co.uk or 07914 694549.
You have rights if there is something wrong with your product
If you think there is something wrong with your product, or if it is faulty, you must contact our Customer Service Team: info@active-silver.co.uk or 07914 694549 within 14 days from your order date. We honour our legal duty to provide you with products that are as described to you on our website and that meet all the requirements imposed by law. Your legal rights are summarised below. These are subject to certain exceptions. For detailed information please visit the Citizens Advice website.
Summary of your key legal rights
The Consumer Rights Act 2015 states goods must be as described, fit for purpose, and of satisfactory quality. During the expected lifespan of your product, your legal rights entitle you to the following:
- Up to 30 days: if your goods are faulty, you can get a refund.
- Up to six months: if your goods can't be repaired or replaced, then you're entitled to a full refund, in most cases.
Please note that the expected lifespan of the products varies from 3 months to 2 years, and as such, your legal rights will cover you for this time.
We can change products and these terms
Changes we can always make
We can always change a product:
- To reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements;
- To make minor technical adjustments and improvements. These are changes that don't affect your use of the product.
Changes we can only make if we give you notice and an option to terminate
We can also make more substantial changes to the product or these terms, but if we do so, we'll notify you via our website or email. You can then contact our Customer Service Team: info@active-silver.co.uk or 07914 694549 to end the contract before the change takes effect and receive a refund for any products you've paid for but not received.
We can suspend supply (and you have rights if we do)
We can suspend the supply of a product to:
- Deal with technical problems or make minor technical changes;
- Update the product to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; or
- Make changes to the product (see We can change products and these terms).
Make changes to the packaging if one of our suppliers goes out of stock of our usual packaging
We let you know, may adjust the price, and may allow you to terminate. If you have already placed an order or subscription, we contact you to tell you we're suspending supply. If we suspend the product for longer than 1 month in any 6-month period, we adjust the price so you don't pay for it while it's suspended. If we suspend supply, or tell you we're going to suspend supply for more than 6 months, you can contact our Customer Service Team: info@active-silver.co.uk or 07914 694549 to end the contract, and we'll refund any sums you've paid in advance for products you won't receive.
We can withdraw products
We can stop providing a product, such as a subscription for goods. We let you know at least 1 month in advance and refund any sums you've paid in advance for products that won't be provided.
We can end our contract with you
We can end our contract with you for a product and claim any compensation due to us if:
- You don't make any payment to us when it's due and you still don't make payment within 14 days of our reminding you that payment is due;
- You don't, within a reasonable time of us asking for it, provide us with information, cooperation, or access that we need to provide the product, for example, payment or delivery information or information relating to the return of a product;
- You don't, within a reasonable time, either allow us to deliver the product to you or collect it from us. If you have said you will collect the product from our office and you don't do this within 14 days, we treat your order as cancelled and refund the purchase price. In both instances, you will then need to purchase the item again and pay any applicable postage;
- If it has not been possible for our courier/postal service to deliver to you, and if you don’t collect your order from the courier depot and it is returned to us, we will refund you for the product but not for the delivery. This includes if you have supplied the incorrect postal address. If you still would like the order, then you will need to purchase the item again and pay any applicable postage.
We don't compensate you for all losses caused by us or our products
We're responsible for losses you suffer caused by us breaking this contract unless the loss is:
- Unexpected: It was not obvious that it would happen and nothing you said to us before we accepted your order meant we should have expected it (so, in the law, the loss was unforeseeable).
- Caused by a delaying event outside our control: As long as we have taken the steps set out in the section We're not responsible for delays outside our control.
- Avoidable: Something you could have avoided by taking reasonable action, including following our reasonable instructions for use.
- A business loss: It relates to your use of a product for the purposes of your trade, business, craft, or profession.
We use your personal data as set out in our Privacy Notice
How we use any personal data you give us is set out in our Privacy Policy.
You have several options for resolving disputes with us
Our complaints policy: Our Customer Service Team: info@active-silver.co.uk or 07914 694549 will do their best to resolve any problems you have with us or our products.
Resolving disputes without going to court
Alternative dispute resolution is an optional process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it without you having to go to court. You can submit a complaint to Trading Standards through their website at National Trading Standards. Trading Standards can advise of a suitable ADR provider. Trading Standards do not charge you for making a complaint, and if you're not satisfied with the outcome, you can still go to court.
You can go to court
These terms are governed by English law, and wherever you live, you can bring claims against us in the English courts. If you live in Wales, Scotland, or Northern Ireland, you can also bring claims against us in the courts of the country you live in. We can claim against you in the courts of the country you live in.
Other important terms apply to our contract
We can transfer our contract with you, so that a different organisation is responsible for supplying your product. We'll tell you in writing if this happens, and we'll ensure that the transfer won't affect your rights under the contract. If you're unhappy with the transfer, you can contact our Customer Service Team: info@active-silver.co.uk or 07914 694549 to end the contract within 7 days of us telling you about it, and we will refund you any payments you've made in advance for products not provided.
You can only transfer your contract with us to someone else if we agree to this. We may not agree if it is not appropriate.
Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. Nobody else can enforce it, and neither of us will need to ask anybody else to sign off on ending or changing it.
If a court invalidates some of this contract, the rest of it will still apply. If a court or other authority decides that some of these terms are unlawful, the rest will continue to apply.
Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. We might not immediately chase you for not doing something (like paying) or for doing something you're not allowed to, but that doesn’t mean we can't do it later.
