The prices on our site are in pounds sterling and are inclusive of European Union Sales Tax (VAT) at the prevailing rate (currently 17.5%). If your order is being dispatched outside the European Union (EU) then we will deduct the VAT. Orders sent to outside the EU may attract import duty and local sales taxes which need to be paid upon receipt of the shipment. These rules vary by country and local government determines duty and customs charges. We do not have access to this information to supply to overseas customers.
By placing an order with us you will be deemed to have read, understood and agreed to these Terms and Conditions. If you are unhappy with any aspect of these terms and conditions, then you should contact us at info@usefulandbeautiful.co.uk before placing an order.
These Terms and Conditions and your use of our web site are governed by English law and you agree to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the English court. This does not affect your non-excludable statutory rights.
This website and our Terms and Conditions have been designed for use within the United Kingdom and under UK law. Whilst we are happy to consider requests for products and enquiries from outside the United Kingdom, we give no warranty, express or implied, that the use of this website or the placing of any order through this website from outside the UK complies with any applicable non-UK laws or regulations. Accordingly, any products or promotions not permitted under your local law are not offered to you.
A Contract between you the customer and Useful and Beautiful Ltd for the sale of our products will only exist once an order has been accepted, processed and despatched (at which point the buyer’s credit/debit card will be charged for the value of the goods despatched). This does not affect the customer's statutory rights.
Our data collection and storage is governed by the rules of the Data Protection Act. Our mailing list and email list are for our exclusive use and we will not pass these details on to other companies.
You may normally cancel your order (once accepted by us) for any reason up to the point of despatch. If you cancel the contract before we have despatched your order, any payments made by you will be refunded in full within 30 days.
The security of our online shop is of paramount importance and we want all our customers to know that credit card transactions and personal information is kept secure. In order to ensure this the site uses SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) technology to securely encrypt information as it is transmitted from your computer to the Protx payment processor. This payment system uses a combination of established and innovative techniques to ensure the security and integrity of all sensitive data. The internet facing webservers are certified by Verisign, ensuring that no third parties can impersonate Protx to obtain secure information. Depending on the browser, you will see a different confirmation that your connection is secure, most commonly a closed padlock at the foot of your screen.
We take every care to ensure that the description and specification of our products are correct at the time of going to press. However, while the colour reproduction of the products is as close a representation as technology allows, we cannot accept responsibility for variation in colour caused by your browser software or computer system.
