We grant you a non-exclusive, royalty-free, revocable, worldwide, non-transferable licence to use our Site in accordance with these Terms. All other uses are prohibited without our prior written consent.

PROHIBITED CONDUCT

You must not do or attempt to do anything: that is unlawful; prohibited by any laws applicable to our Site; which we would consider inappropriate; or which might bring us or our Site into disrepute, including (without limitation):

(a) anything that would constitute a breach of an individual's privacy (including uploading private or personal information without an individual's consent) or any other legal rights; (b) using our Site to defame, harass, threaten, menace or offend any person; (c) interfering with any user using our Site; (d) tampering with or modifying our Site, knowingly transmitting viruses or other disabling features, or damaging or interfering with our Site, including (without limitation) using trojan horses, viruses, or piracy or programming routines that may damage or interfere with our Site; (e) using our Site to send unsolicited email messages; or (f) facilitating or assisting a third party to do any of the above acts.

EXCLUSION OF COMPETITORS

You are prohibited from using our Site, including the Content, in any way that competes with our business.

ORDERS

To place an order with us, you must be at least 18 years of age and hold a valid credit or debit card. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we may decline or cancel any order, in whole or in part, at our discretion. Receipt of an order confirmation from us does not constitute acceptance of your order. If we decline or cancel your order, any payment made by you in respect of that order (or that part of the order) will be refunded in full.

You acknowledge and agree that any incorrect information submitted in your order may delay or impede delivery, and we take no responsibility for any incorrect delivery details being provided. Additional fees may be charged for re-delivery in the event that an order is returned to us undelivered.

PRICING AND PAYMENT

Prices for Australian customers are set in Australian dollars and include GST. Where you shop from a market we support outside Australia, prices are set for that market, and are displayed and charged in its local currency. Prices may vary between markets and include an allowance for shipping.

Payment is taken in full when you place your order. Each ring is made to order, so production begins once your payment is received.

For any orders shipped outside Australia, prices are exclusive of Australian GST. Any import duties, taxes or other charges that apply in the destination country are the responsibility of the customer, unless otherwise stated at checkout. The price applicable to your order is the price displayed at the time you place it. If a price is shown incorrectly due to a genuine error, we may cancel the order and refund you in full, and we will let you know if this happens.

WAITLIST AND EMAIL UPDATES

Our Site allows you to join a waitlist for products that are not yet available, and to sign up for email updates. By signing up, you consent to receiving emails from us in accordance with our Privacy Policy, and you may unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email. Joining a waitlist does not constitute an order, does not reserve a product or a price, and does not oblige us to supply any product to you.

MADE TO ORDER

Each BERIT ring is made to order by hand. Estimated lead times vary by model and size, and are displayed on the relevant product page. All lead times are estimates only, and may be affected by production capacity or other conditions outside our reasonable control. If your order is materially delayed beyond the estimated lead time, we will notify you.

UPGRADE CREDIT

From time to time we may offer a credit towards a future purchase, for example where you replace the smart ring your BERIT ring was made to fit. Any such credit is offered at our discretion and may be varied or withdrawn at any time, may be redeemed once per customer against a single purchase, has no cash value, cannot be transferred or combined with another offer, and may require reasonable evidence of your replacement smart ring.

SHIPPING

We ship to destinations within Australia, and to New Zealand, the United States, the United Kingdom and the European Union. Standard shipping is included in the price of every order. Australian orders are shipped with Australia Post; international orders are shipped with DHL. You are welcome to join the waitlist for any other country on our Site, and we will notify you when we begin shipping there.

RETURNS AND FAULTY GOODS

Each BERIT ring is made to order, and accordingly we are not able to accept returns for a change of mind. Each ring is inspected by hand before it leaves us.

In the unlikely event that your ring arrives less than perfect, you must notify us at customercare@berit.shop within fourteen (14) days of receiving it, and provide photographs of the ring and a description of the fault. If your order arrives and the contents do not correspond to what you ordered, you must notify us at customercare@berit.shop as soon as possible after receiving it.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our sole liability to you in respect of any defective ring is (at our election) limited to:

(a) the repair of the defective ring; (b) the resupply of the defective ring; or (c) refund of the price paid by you for the defective ring.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude, restrict or modify any right or remedy you may have under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted or modified.
