We accept your order when we confirm this in writing
When you place an order on our website, you are offering to purchase the products listed in your shopping basket. Immediately after you submit your order, you will receive an email from us confirming receipt and acceptance of the order. A contract is formed at this point.
All orders are subject to stock availability. If we are unable to supply any product, we will notify you as soon as possible and refund any payments made.
Despite our best efforts, errors may occur in the pricing or description of products. If we discover such an error after accepting your order, we reserve the right to cancel the contract, in which case we will inform you and refund you in full.
We also reserve the right to cancel the contract if we suspect fraudulent activity or are otherwise unable to fulfil your order for reasons beyond our reasonable control. Your statutory rights to cancel, as detailed below, are not affected.
We charge you when you place an order
If your product is goods, you will own it once we have received payment in full.
We charge interest on late payments
If we are unable to collect any payment you owe us we charge interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 4% a year above the Bank of England base rate from time to time. This interest accrues on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You pay us the interest together with any overdue amount.
We pass on increases in VAT
If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
We are not responsible for delays outside our control
If our supply of your product is delayed by an event outside our control, such as shipping delays from our warehouse, we contact you as soon as possible to let you know and do what we can to reduce the delay. As long as we do this, we will not compensate you for the delay. If the delay is likely to be substantial you can contact us at: contact@gourmet-tallow.co.uk to end the contract and receive a refund for any products you have paid for in advance, but not received.
Products can vary slightly from their pictures
A product's true colour may not exactly match that shown on your device or its packaging may be slightly different.
If you bought online or over the telephone, you have a legal right to change your mind
Your legal right to change your mind. For most of our products bought online or over the telephone as a consumer, you have a legal right to change your mind about your purchase and receive a refund of what you paid for it, including the delivery costs. This is subject to some conditions. You cannot change your mind about an order for:
● products sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes, once these products have been unsealed after you receive them;
● digital products, after you have started to download or stream these;
● services, once these have been completed;
● sealed audio or sealed video recordings or sealed computer software, once these products are unsealed after you receive them;
● products that are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised; and
● products which become mixed inseparably with other items after their delivery.
The deadline for changing your mind. If you are a consumer and you change your mind about a product you must let us know no later than 14 days after the day we deliver your product. If the products are split into several deliveries over different days, the period runs from the day after the last delivery.
How to let us know. To let us know you want to change your mind, contact us at contact@gourmet-tallow.co.uk.
You have to return the product at your own cost. You must return the products (and any free gifts provided with it) to us within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind. Returns are at your own cost, unless we offered free returns when you bought the goods. You can send the product back to us, using an established delivery service. You should keep a receipt or other evidence from the delivery service that proves you have sent the product and when you sent it. If you don’t do this and we don’t receive the products at all or within a reasonable time we won't refund you the price. For help with returns, please contact us at contact@gourmet-tallow.co.uk.
We only refund standard delivery costs. We do not refund any extra you have paid for express delivery or delivery at a particular time.
We reduce your refund if you have used or damaged a product or tampered with the seal. All products are inspected on return to us. If you handle the product in a way which would not be acceptable in-store, we reduce your refund, to compensate us for its reduced value. For example, we reduce your refund if the product's condition is not "as new” or the packaging is damaged. In some cases, because of the way you have treated the product, including if you have tampered with or removed any product seal, no refund may be due. Please contact us at contact@gourmet-tallow.co.uk and we can advise you on whether we're likely to reduce or refuse your refund.
When and how we refund you. If your product is goods that you are sending back to us and is eligible for a refund, we refund you within 14 days of receiving them back from you (or receiving evidence you've sent them to us). We refund you by the method you used for payment. We don't charge a fee for the refund.

In addition to the legal right to change your mind, we, Gourmet Tallow Limited, offer our UK customers a 100% money-back guarantee on our products however they are purchased (Goodwill Guarantee). If you are not completely satisfied, you may request a refund of the purchase price, provided that less than 20% of the product has been used (as reasonably assessed by us upon its return).

● to make minor technical adjustments and improvements.
We can suspend supply (and you have rights if we do)
We can suspend the supply of a product. We do this to:
● deal with technical problems or make minor technical changes;
● update the product to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; or
● make changes to the product (see We can change products and these terms).
We try to let you know, may adjust the price and may allow you to terminate. We contact you in advance to tell you we are suspending supply, unless the problem is urgent or an emergency. If we suspend supply, or tell you we are going to suspend supply, for more than 14 days you can contact us at contact@gourmet-tallow.co.uk to end the contract and we'll refund any sums you've paid in advance for products you won't receive.
We can end our contract with you

● you do not make any payment to us when it's due and you still don't make payment within seven days of our reminding you that payment is due;
● you do not, within a reasonable time of us asking for it, provide us with information, cooperation or access that we need to provide the product;
you do not, within a reasonable time, either allow us to deliver the product to you or collect it from us.
We do not compensate you for all losses caused by us or our products
We are not responsible for losses you suffer caused by us breaking this contract if the loss is:
● Unexpected. It was not obvious that it would happen and nothing you said to us before we accepted your order meant we should have expected it (so, in the law, the loss was unforeseeable).
● Caused by a delaying event outside our control. As long as we have taken the steps set out in the section We are not responsible for delays outside our control.
● Avoidable. Something you could have avoided by taking reasonable action.
To the extent that you use a product for the purposes of your trade, business, craft or profession then, save in respect of any liability which cannot legally be limited, our total liability to you for all losses arising under or in connection with any contract between us, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, shall be limited to what you paid for the product and all claims for loss of profit or indirect or consequential loss are wholly excluded.
We use your personal data as set out in our Privacy Notice
How we use any personal data you give us is set out in our Privacy Notice: https://www.gourmet-tallow.co.uk/privacy-notice.
You have several options for resolving disputes with us
Our complaints policy. If you have a complaint, you can contact us at contact@gourmet-tallow.co.uk and we will do our best to resolve any problems you have with us or our products as per our Complaints Policy https://www.gourmet-tallow.co.uk/complaints-policy.
Resolving disputes without going to court. Alternative dispute resolution is an optional process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court.
You can go to court. These terms are governed by English law and wherever you live, you can bring claims against us in the English courts. If you live in Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland, you can also bring claims against us in the courts of the country you live in. We can claim against you in the courts of the country you live in.
Other important terms apply to our contract
We can transfer our contract with you, so that a different organisation is responsible for supplying your product. We will tell you in writing if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer won't affect your rights under the contract. If you are unhappy with the transfer you can contact us at contact@gourmet-tallow.co.uk to end the contract within 14 days of us telling you about it and we will refund you any payments you've made in advance for products not provided.
You can only transfer your contract with us to someone else if we agree to this. We may not agree. However, you can transfer our guarantee (as explained in Our goodwill guarantee) to a new owner of the product. We can require the new owner to prove you transferred the product to them, for example by providing a copy of the receipt of sale.
Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. Nobody else can enforce it (other than someone you gave a product to as a present) and neither of us will need to ask anybody else to sign-off on ending or changing it.
If a court invalidates some of this contract, the rest of it will still apply. If a court or other authority decides that some of these terms are unlawful, the rest will continue to apply.
Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. We might not immediately chase you for not doing something (like paying) or for doing something you are not allowed to, but that doesn’t mean we cannot do it later.
