   3.          Account Registration, and Safety

When you sign up for an account on the website, you will be required to provide us with your username and password.

You acknowledge and agree that we issue all accounts at our sole discretion. We may decline to provide an account to any user without giving any reason for our decision.

You agree to keep your account login credentials (username and password) confidential. If you suspect any unauthorised activity on your account, please immediately notify us at contact@kashmir-swimwear.com. You release us from any liability arising from or associated with unauthorised access to your account.

   4.          Product Images

All product images available on the website are for illustrative purposes only. Product colours may vary slightly from images displayed on the website due to different screen resolutions and studio lighting during a product shoot. For any pre-sale product-related questions, please contact us at contact@kashmir-swimwear.com. 

   5.          Order Placement and Acceptance

You are not required to create an account to place an order through the website.

All products listed on the website, including those in your shopping cart, are subject to availability. You can select and add products you wish to purchase to your shopping cart. Please carefully review your shopping cart, including product prices, sizes, quantities, applicable taxes, shipping fees, and handling charges, before proceeding to the checkout page and authorising the payment. You acknowledge and agree that by submitting your order on the website, you are offering to purchase the ordered product(s). After shipping your order, we will send you an order confirmation e-mail with relevant tracking details and an invoice.

You understand and accept that products that are sold out may not come back in stock and may be removed from our website. If you order multiple products as part of the same transaction and some of the ordered products are unavailable, we may fulfil your order in part by removing any out-of-stock products from your order. You will only be billed for the products that are specified in our order confirmation e-mail.

We may decline your order for any reason at our sole discretion, including but not limited to:

  • If the ordered product is unavailable;
  • Any pricing or product description errors on our website at the time you placed your order;
  • If we are unable to bill your payment method for your order;
  • If we do not service your location;
  • Your non-compliance with any provision of this Agreement.

If we are unable to accept your order, we will contact you to inform you of the same.

   6.          Price Changes and Errors

All product prices on our website are listed in GBP and may be converted into your local currency for your convenience.

Although we make our best effort to keep all product prices up to date, you understand and accept that pricing errors are possible on the website. If there is an error in the price of your ordered product, we will contact you with the option to either confirm your order at the correct price or cancel your order. Please note that if we do not receive any response from you within 24 hours of our e-mail, we reserve the right to cancel your order. We are not under any legal obligation to accept orders at a lower price due to any errors in pricing on the website.

We also reserve the right to change any product prices or withdraw any promotional offers without prior notice to you. Any changes in prices and promotions will not impact any orders that we have already shipped.

   7.          Payment Policy

All payments on the website are processed by our selected third-party secure payment gateway. You can pay for your order using the payment method made available on the payment page.

If you select to pay with a credit or debit card, by providing your payment card details, you represent that you have the right to use the payment card provided by you. You are expressly prohibited from paying or attempting to pay for your order using another person’s payment card without their express authorisation. We will not be liable for any delay in delivery or non-delivery of your order resulting from payment authorisation refusal by the payment card issuer. If your payment card issuer declines authorisation, we will cancel your order, and you will have the option to place a new order with a different payment card.

   8.          Order Cancellations

Please carefully review your order before submitting it. We do not accept any order cancellations and modifications after an order is submitted. We will process all orders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and if your order is eligible for a return and/or refund, you will have to return the products in accordance with our  Returns and Refunds Policy. 

All items marked as “Final Sale” on the website are final and will not be eligible for refunds.

The company reserves the right to cancel any order at any time if:

  • the products ordered are unavailable for any reason;
  • there is a pricing error with the ordered product; or
  • we are unable to ship to your location.
