Welcome to elfzhou.com (our “Website”). Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully before you start to use our Website, as these will apply to your use of it. We recommend that you print a copy of this document for future reference. If you are using a guardian’s credit or debit card to make a purchase you must let your guardian know about our Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy before subscribing and/or signing up to our site.

IF YOU CONTINUE TO BROWSE AND USE THIS WEBSITE YOU ARE AGREEING TO COMPLY WITH AND BE BOUND BY THE FOLLOWING TERMS OF USE.
PLACING AN ORDER
Once you have made your choice and your order has been placed, you will receive an e-mail acknowledging the details of your order. This e-mail is NOT an acceptance of your order, just an acknowledgement that we have received it. Unless you cancel your order, acceptance of your order and completion of the contract between you and E.L.F ZHOU LONDON will be completed when we e-mail you to confirm the goods have been dispatched. For the avoidance of doubt, the contract has been concluded in London, in the English language and is therefore governed by English law.
We reserve the right not to accept your order in the event that we do not obtain authorization for payment; that shipping restrictions apply to a particular item; or that the item ordered is out of stock.
We may refuse to process and therefore accept a transaction for any reason, or refuse service to anyone at any time at our sole discretion. We will not be liable to you or any third party by reason of our withdrawing any product from the website at any time, whether or not that particular product has been sold out.
In order to make purchases through the website, you are requested to provide your personal details. Customers must provide their real name, billing address, shipping address, phone number, e-mail address and other requested information as indicated. Furthermore, when ordering items, you will be required to provide your payment details, and you represent and warrant that the payment details you provide on ordering are both valid and correct. Our site is only available for use to individuals who meet our terms of eligibility and who have been issued with a valid debit/credit card by a bank acceptable to E.L.F ZHOU LONDON and whose applications are acceptable to E.L.F ZHOU LONDON. E.L.F ZHOU LONDON reserves the right to refuse to ship multiple items to any one customer or postal address.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS AND PRICING
Where possible, we take every care to ensure that the description, compositions and images of our Products are correct. However, images, compositions and descriptions of Products on our Website are not intended to be binding and are intended only to give a general description of the Products.
Please note, our Products are all handmade therefore the Products we send you may vary slightly from the images on our Website and other similar Products.
Whilst we try and ensure that all details regarding Product pricing which appear on our Website are accurate, errors may occur. We will normally check prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that: where the Product’s correct price is less than the price stated on our Website, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Products to you. However, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the Products to you at the incorrect (lower) price; and if the Product’s correct price is higher than the price stated on our Website, we will contact you as soon as possible to inform you of this error and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Product at the correct price or cancelling your order. 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. If your order is cancelled in these circumstances and you have already paid for the Products, you will receive a full refund.
The prices are indicated in GBP and excluding VAT. The price including VAT and the total amount of the order including shipping can be seen in the shopping cart on the checkout page. For products supplied to clients within the UK, the VAT rate of 20% is applied. Clients based in countries outside of the UK will not be charged VAT.
For customers in the European Union, all shipments will be sent on a FedEx service (duties paid) meaning that import taxes will be invoiced at the checkout. A charge of 20% on top of the order value will be applied at the checkout to cover import taxes and handling. European Union customers will not be required to clear their own shipments after 1st January 2021 as we hope to make this transition period as seamless as possible for our European customers.
Clients based in countries outside of the European Community will not be charged VAT. Delivery costs will be charged in addition; such additional charges will be clearly displayed on our Website prior to placing your order. Prices and availability of Products are subject to change without notice. Offers and special promotions are subject to availability.
PAYMENT
