Terms and Conditions

These Terms and Conditions explain the rules that apply when you visit The Umbrella Site, create an account, use our website features, or place an order. Please read them carefully before completing a purchase.

1. About these terms

These Terms and Conditions apply to your use of The Umbrella Site and to orders placed through our website.

By browsing the website, creating an account, or placing an order, you confirm that you have read and understood these terms. When you complete checkout, you agree to be bound by these terms together with our Privacy Policy and Refund and Returns Policy.

If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use the website or place an order.

2. Eligibility to place an order

You must be legally able to enter into a purchase agreement in your country or region.

If you are under the legal age required to make a purchase, an order should be placed by a parent or legal guardian on your behalf.

You are responsible for providing accurate and complete information when placing an order.

3. Products and product information

We aim to describe our products accurately and provide clear photographs, specifications, prices, and other relevant details.

Please review the product description carefully before placing an order. Product colours may appear slightly different depending on your screen settings, lighting conditions, and device display.

Packaging, minor product details, and product presentation may change where necessary without materially changing the product.

We do not make any claim or guarantee that is not clearly stated on the relevant product page or confirmed by us in writing.

4. Product availability

Products are subject to availability. Adding a product to your cart does not reserve the product.

In rare cases, a product may become unavailable after an order has been placed. If this happens, we will contact you and may cancel the affected item or order. If you have already made a payment, we will arrange a refund for the cancelled item or order.

5. Prices

Product prices are shown on the website. Shipping charges, customs duties, taxes, and other applicable charges may be added separately where relevant.

We may update prices at any time. A price change will not normally affect an order that we have already accepted.

If a product is listed with an obvious pricing error, we may cancel the order before dispatch. If payment has already been made, we will arrange a refund.

6. Placing an order

When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase the products in your cart.

After checkout, you may receive an automated order confirmation. This confirms that we have received your order. It does not necessarily mean that the order has been accepted or dispatched.

We may review the order, confirm product availability, verify the delivery information, and contact you where necessary.

An order is treated as accepted when we confirm dispatch, provide a shipment confirmation, or otherwise confirm acceptance in writing.

7. When we may refuse or cancel an order

We may refuse or cancel an order where reasonably necessary. This may include situations where:

• A product is unavailable.
• The product price or description contains an obvious error.
• The delivery address is incomplete, incorrect, or outside an available delivery area.
• The order appears to be fraudulent, abusive, or placed for an unlawful purpose.
• We cannot confirm a bank transfer payment within a reasonable period.
• We cannot reasonably fulfil the order due to a delivery restriction, customs restriction, or legal requirement.
• The customer has repeatedly refused delivery or misused cash on delivery services.

If we cancel an order after receiving payment, we will arrange a refund for the cancelled amount.

8. Payment methods

We currently offer bank transfer and cash on delivery as payment methods. The options shown during checkout may depend on your delivery location and order details.

Bank transfer

If you select bank transfer, your order may remain pending until the payment is received and matched with your order.

Please use the correct order reference when making the transfer. You are responsible for any bank charges applied by your bank.

If payment is not received within a reasonable period, we may cancel the unpaid order.

Cash on delivery

Cash on delivery may be available for selected locations and orders. It is not guaranteed to be available for every country, region, delivery address, or order value.

Where cash on delivery is available, you must provide accurate delivery and contact information. Please ensure that someone is available to receive the order and make payment.

We may restrict or refuse cash on delivery for certain orders, locations, or customers where reasonably necessary.

Future online payments

We may add card payments or another online payment method in the future. If an online payment provider is added, additional payment terms may apply and will be shown during checkout.

9. Shipping and delivery

We accept orders for delivery worldwide, subject to product availability, courier availability, customs requirements, and any restrictions that apply to the destination.

Depending on the destination and available service, your order may be delivered by DHL, UPS, FedEx, or another suitable delivery partner.

Delivery costs will be shown during checkout or communicated before your order is finalised.

Any delivery estimate is an estimate only unless we clearly confirm a guaranteed delivery service in writing. Delivery times may be affected by courier delays, customs processing, weather conditions, public holidays, incorrect delivery information, local restrictions, or events outside our reasonable control.

Please check your delivery details carefully before placing your order. We are not responsible for delays or failed delivery caused by incorrect or incomplete information provided by the customer.

If a parcel is returned to us because delivery was refused, the address was incorrect, or delivery could not be completed after reasonable attempts, additional delivery charges may apply before the order can be sent again. Any refund request will be handled according to our Refund and Returns Policy and applicable law.

10. International orders, customs duties, and taxes

International orders may be subject to import duties, taxes, customs fees, handling charges, or brokerage fees imposed by the destination country or the delivery provider.

Unless we clearly state otherwise during checkout, these charges are not included in the product price or delivery fee and must be paid by the customer.

Customs authorities may require additional information before releasing a shipment. You are responsible for providing any information reasonably required for customs clearance.

We are not responsible for customs delays, customs charges, or a customer's failure to pay required import charges.

11. Order inspection

Please inspect your parcel after delivery.

If an item is damaged, defective, missing, or materially different from the item ordered, contact us as soon as reasonably possible at info@theumbrellasite.com.

Please include your order number, a clear explanation of the issue, and photographs where relevant. This helps us review the problem and provide a suitable resolution.

12. Returns, refunds, exchanges, and cancellations

Returns, refunds, exchanges, and order cancellations are handled according to our Refund and Returns Policy.

Please read the Refund and Returns Policy before completing your purchase.

Nothing in these terms limits any consumer right or legal remedy that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded.

13. Customer accounts

You may create a customer account to manage your details, view your order history, and use available website features.

You are responsible for keeping your login details confidential and for activity carried out through your account.

Please contact us promptly if you believe your account has been accessed without permission.

We may restrict, suspend, or close an account where reasonably necessary to protect the website, prevent abuse, investigate suspected fraud, or comply with legal requirements.

14. Wishlist, cart, and product comparison features

Wishlist, cart, and product comparison features are provided for convenience. Saving a product does not reserve it, guarantee availability, or lock its price.

Saved items may change, become unavailable, or be removed from the website.

15. Product reviews

Customers may be able to submit product reviews. Reviews must be honest, relevant, and based on a genuine experience with the product.

You must not submit a review that:

• Contains false, misleading, abusive, hateful, or unlawful content.
• Includes spam, advertising, or unrelated promotional content.
• Includes another person's private information.
• Infringes copyright, trademark rights, or other legal rights.
• Contains viruses, malicious code, or links intended to harm users or the website.

By submitting a review, you allow us to display, format, and use the review on our website and in connection with our products. You remain responsible for the content you submit.

We may moderate, reject, or remove a review where reasonably necessary.

You must not:

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we are not responsible for indirect losses, loss of opportunity, or losses caused by events outside our reasonable control.

We are not responsible for losses caused by inaccurate information provided by the customer, failure to follow product instructions, misuse of a product, or unauthorised access resulting from a customer's failure to protect account login details.

Where we are responsible for a problem with an order, the appropriate resolution may include a repair, replacement, refund, partial refund, or another remedy required by applicable law.

We are not responsible for delay or failure caused by events outside our reasonable control.
