These terms and conditions should be read alongside, and are in addition to, our Privacy Policy and our Cookie Policy which tell you how we use your personal information.

Placing an order

By placing an order on www.jeanjacob.com, you confirm that you have read our terms and conditions, Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy and that you agree to them. You should keep a copy of these terms and conditions for future reference. We will not always file a copy of orders made by you.

Each order that you place is an offer to buy those goods and we shall accept that offer at our sole discretion, but orders are normally accepted if:

• the goods are available;
• the order reflects our current pricing;
• the goods are for delivery to a destination that we deliver to or are for collection in one of our stores; and
• your credit or account card is authorised for the transaction.

We will confirm receipt of your order through our automatic screen confirmation of the order and we may also follow this up with a confirmatory email. Please note that at this stage your order for goods may not have been accepted by us.

Formation of the contract

We will confirm our acceptance of your order for goods by sending you an email confirming that the goods have been dispatched or will be shortly ready for collection in store (“Dispatch Confirmation”).

The contract between us will only be formed when we send you the Dispatch Confirmation (the “Contract”). These terms and conditions, the Dispatch Confirmation and any other information relating to the goods which we have brought to your attention are incorporated into the Contract.

The Contact will only relate to those goods which have been confirmed in the Dispatch Confirmation and we will not be obliged to supply any other goods which you have ordered until we have sent you a separate Dispatch Confirmation in respect of such goods.

Prices

The price of the goods and our delivery charges (where applicable) will be as set out on the Website from time to time, except in the case of obvious error.

All prices on the Website will be calculated according to the destination of where your order is being delivered to or collected from and are included in the total price displayed when you place your order.

If your order is for delivery to a destination outside of the European Union, your order may be subject to import duties and taxes. It is your responsibility to pay any such duties and taxes. Any such duties and taxes may vary in different territories. We are unable to advise you in relation to any import duties and taxes and we recommend you contact the local customs office at the delivery destination in this respect.

We reserve the right to amend our prices and delivery charges at any time, but such changes will not affect any order for which we have already sent you a Dispatch Confirmation.

It is possible that despite our best efforts, that some goods may be incorrectly priced. We will usually verify the price of any goods as part of our dispatch process and if the price of the goods:

1.  is lower than the price stated on the Website, we will charge this lower amount to you when dispatching the goods to you; or
2.  is higher than the price stated on the Website, we will at our discretion either contact you for instructions prior to dispatching the goods or reject your order and notify you of such rejection by email.

We are under no obligation to provide goods to you at an incorrect lower price, even once we have sent a Dispatch Confirmation to you, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have been recognised by you as an error.

Payment

Financial transactions are handled by a third party financial institution that complies with the highest level of PCI standards for safe service. We accept payment by credit card, debit card, PayPal as set out on the Website. Payment for the goods and related costs will be due at the time we accept your order. We will usually attempt to take payment once the goods are ready to be delivered.

You confirm to us that you are authorised to use the payment method that you provide to us when placing your order. We may carry out security checking to confirm that this is the case.

If your payment method is not authorised, we may refuse to accept your order and we will not have any responsibility for the non-delivery of the goods.

We are also not responsible for any charges or penalties which may be imposed by the payment provider as result of payment being processed in respect of your order.

Delivery and Collection

All delivery dates and times on the Website are given only for general guidance. In most cases we are able to deliver the goods to you or for collection from your selected store within our estimated delivery times and, where we anticipate that this may be delayed, we will contact you to inform you of this delay.

We will fulfil your order by the date and time set out in the Dispatch Confirmation or, if no date or time is specified, within a reasonable period from the date of the Dispatch Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances.

Where the goods are to be delivered, we shall attempt to deliver the goods to the address you specify for delivery, or if none, to the address of the credit or debit card you supply. It is important that these addresses supplied by you to us are accurate.

We are unable to deliver goods to PO boxes or hotels. In most cases a signature will be required from you or the recipient on delivery. Goods supplied are not for resale.

If we are unable to deliver the goods to you or if the goods are not collected, then we will be entitled to cancel the Contract and, if payment has already been taken, refund the cost of the goods to you.

Goods supplied are not for resale.

We will be responsible for the goods until they have been delivered or have been collected by you. The goods will be at your own risk from this time, but you will not own the goods until we have received full payment of all sums due in respect of the goods, including any delivery charges, and the goods have been delivered to you or have been collected by you.

Shipping

We may use Royal Mail, UPS, FedEx & DHL for shipping items. All shipping charges are displayed upon checkout, before the payment is made. In rare instances, we may contact you if the shipping charges change. We are not responsible for any other fees such as brokerage fees, taxes and duty collected at the time of delivery.
