6. YOUR CONSUMER RIGHT OF RETURN AND REFUND

6.1 If you are a consumer, you have a legal right under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 to cancel the Contract, without giving any reason, during the period set out below in clause 6.4.

6.2 This cancellation right does not apply in the case of any products which are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised.

6.3 To exercise the right to cancel, you must notify us by sending a clear statement of your decision to cancel the Contract by sending an e-mail to info@sunsibility.co.uk, or by sending a letter to SunSibility, 88 Jasmin Road, Epsom, Surrey KT19 9EA. You may download, print and use the model cancellation form which is available by clicking here, but this is not obligatory. We recommend that you keep a copy of the notification for your own records. If you send the notice by e-mail or by post, the cancellation is effective from the date you sent us the e-mail or posted the letter to us.

6.4 Your legal right to cancel a Contract ends 14 days after the day on which you, or any third party (other than the carrier) nominated by you, receive the products (or, if you ordered more than one product in the same Contract and they are delivered on different days, the last of the products). To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.

6.5 If you cancel the Contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery we offered). You will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement. However, unless the products are faulty or not as described (in this case, see clause 6.9), you will have to bear the direct cost of returning the products.

6.6 You must send the products back to, or hand them over to us at, 88 Jasmin Road, Epsom, Surrey KT19 9EA, at your own expense, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you inform us of your cancellation of the Contract. In the case of third party products, please return them direct to the third party supplier, namely Stingray products to SunSibility Returns PO Box 624, Weybridge, Surrey KT13 3DF, Wallaroo Headwear to Unit 15, Radar Way Christchurch Business Park Christchurch Dorset BH23 4FL, and Rob McAlister Umbrellas to Unit Q4, Cherrycourt Way, off Stanbridge Road, Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire LU7 4UH. The deadline is met if you send back the products before the period of 14 days has expired. Meanwhile, you must keep the products in your possession and take reasonable care of them while they are in your possession.

6.7 We will make the reimbursement (using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise) without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the earliest of the day we receive the products back from you, the day you provide evidence that you have returned the products or (if they have not yet been delivered) the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel the Contract.

6.8 We will not make any deduction from the reimbursement, otherwise than for any loss in value of the products which results from any handling by you beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the products goods of unnecessary handling by you. In particular, you must not handle them in a way which goes beyond the sort of handling which might reasonably be allowed in a shop. If you do, and the value of the products is diminished as a result, we may deduct the amount of the diminution from the refund, or recover it from you, up to the contract price.

6.9 As a consumer, you will always have legal rights in relation to products that are faulty or not as described. These legal rights are not affected by the returns policy in this clause 6 or these Terms. If you have returned the products to us under this clause 6 because they are faulty or mis-described, we will refund the price of a defective product in full, any applicable delivery charges, and any reasonable costs you incur in returning the item to us. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens’ Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.

7. DELIVERY

7.1 We will fulfil your order as soon as possible, and in any event not later than 30 days after the day on which the Contract was formed, unless there is an Event Outside Our Control. The estimated delivery date will be set out in the Dispatch Confirmation, and will usually be much sooner. If you notify us when ordering the products that you need them by a specified date, we will use all reasonable endeavours to meet your requirements, but do not guarantee that this will be possible. Urgent deliveries may involve additional delivery charges, in which case we will contact you and obtain your agreement before sending the Dispatch Confirmation. If we are unable to meet the estimated delivery date because of an Event Outside Our Control, we will contact you with a revised estimated delivery date.

7.2 Delivery will be completed when we deliver the products to the address you have provided.

7.3 The products will be your responsibility from the completion of delivery.

9.3 The price of a product includes VAT (where applicable) at the applicable current rate chargeable in the UK for the time being.

We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing.

16. OTHER IMPORTANT TERMS

16.1 We may transfer our rights and obligations under a Contract to another organisation, but this will not affect your rights or our obligations under these Terms. We will always notify you in writing or by posting on this webpage if this happens.

16.2 You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these Terms to another person if we agree in writing. However if you are a consumer and you have purchased a product as a gift, you may transfer the benefit of our warranty in clause 12 to the recipient of the gift without needing to ask our consent.

16.3 This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms, whether under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties Act) 1999 or otherwise.

16.5 If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.

16.6 If you are a consumer, please note that these Terms are governed by English law. This means a Contract for the purchase of products through our site and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it will be governed by English law.
