Shopping will be easier and your entire experience with us will become customised over time. Please see our Terms of Use regarding opening an Account.

Such information and the availability of any Products are subject to change at any time without notice.
- We have made efforts to accurately display the attributes of Products, including the applicable colours. However, as the actual colours you see will depend on your monitor, we cannot guarantee that your monitor’s display of any colour will accurately reflect the actual product colour or finish. In addition, certain weights, measures, and similar descriptions are approximate and are for convenience only.
- Some Products we sell are for children’s use; however, these Products are intended for sale to adults only.

We do our best to ensure that information provided on the Platform is accurate but we do not warrant that it is accurate, complete, reliable, current, and/or error-free. For Products, you should not rely solely on the information presented on the Platform, and you should read labels, warnings and directions provided with the Products.
3. PRICES
- All prices shown on the Platform are in AED and inclusive of Value Added Tax (“VAT”) at the applicable rate. If your chosen payment method is not denominated in AED, the final price of any products you purchase will be calculated in accordance with the exchange rate on the date your payment provider processes your payment.

6. ORDERS AND PAYMENT
- Please note that completion of the online checkout process does not constitute our acceptance of your offer to purchase Products from us.

Our acceptance of your order will take place only when we take payment from you and dispatch the Products that you ordered from us.
- Prior to the dispatch of the Products, we have the right to decline an order for any reason, including legal and regulatory reasons. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, we reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to limit the quantity of Products purchased per person per household or per order.

- Where you pay by credit card, you agree, understand, represent and warrant that the credit card details provided by you are correct, accurate and current and that you are lawfully authorised to provide us with the details and use such credit card to make purchases on the Platform. Under no circumstances you shall use a credit card, which is not lawfully owned by you. You further agree and undertake to provide the correct and valid credit card details to us. The card details will not be utilised and shared by us with any of the third parties unless required for fraud verifications or by law, regulation or court order. We will not be liable for any credit card fraud. The liability for use of a card fraudulently will be on you and the onus to ‘prove it otherwise’ shall be exclusively on you.
- For your convenience, your credit or debit card information can be stored in your Account. For more information, see our Privacy Policy. For added security, the billing address you provide must exactly match the address on file at your debit or credit card. The processing of your order may be delayed if these addresses are different.
- We may request a pre-authorisation for some orders placed online with a credit or debit card. This pre-authorisation will not be billed to you; however, your card issuer may hold this amount for a short period. Your card issuer determines the length of time the pre-authorisation is held. We do this to ensure that the card details are still valid and that you have sufficient funds to complete the transaction.
- While availing any of the payment method/s offered by us, we are not responsible or take no liability of whatsoever nature in respect of any loss or damage arising directly or indirectly to you out of the decline due to:
- lack of authorisation for any transaction/s;

This is done in the interest of providing a safe online shopping environment to our users.
- Whilst your payment is being authorised, look out for “https://” in the address line of the page you are directed to. This indicates that your data is being transferred using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protection. We use industry-standard data encryption to make sure no unauthorised parties can access your payment details. We have also introduced secure code services for customers using Visa and Mastercard to shop on the website.

Full payment is required before an order can be dispatched to you.

The only exception is if you have opted to pay cash on delivery in accordance with the Payment Policy.
- We provide you with access to the Platform on the basis that, to the maximum extent permitted by law, we exclude all warranties, representations, conditions and other terms of any kind that access to the Platform will be uninterrupted or error-free.
