Welcome to our Terms of Service

This page covers our standard operating practices, services, warranty, invoicing, accounts, shipping and more. It’s what you might call the ‘fine print’, and all fair and routine stuff, designed to ensure transparency and protect everyone.

Problems only occur when people don’t understand the terms and conditions or try to change them retrospectively. Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions, BEFORE doing business with us.

Most importantly, individuals who disagree with any of these terms and conditions are encouraged to seek assistance from businesses that may better suit their needs 🙂
