Terms & Conditions
Introduction
These Terms and Conditions govern your relationship with Axholme Brewing Company Limited, a company incorporated in England, whose registered office is at 26 South Saint Mary’s Gate, Grimsby, North East Lincolnshire, DN31 1LW (“Docks Beers”, “we”, “our” or “us”) and all orders that you may make for the meat products advertised for sale by us (the “Products”) via the Docks Beers Website, docksbeers.com (the “Website”). Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully as they affect your rights and liabilities under the law. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions, please do not order from Docks Beers.
Revisions
We reserve the right to revise these Terms and Conditions from time to time as explained further in paragraph 13 below. Please check periodically for changes. If you do not agree with any of the revised Terms and Conditions please do not order from Docks Beers. These Terms and Conditions were last updated on 2nd April 2019.
Registration
2.1. To order from Docks Beers, you must register with us. This is referred to as ‘set up an account’ throughout our Website and literature. However, this is not a credit account; payment will be required before the shipment of goods. This account can be set up by following the instructions on the Website.
2.2. To register with Docks Beers you must be over eighteen years of age or, if you are a business, you must be operated by a person over eighteen years of age.
2.3. You must ensure that the details provided by you on registration or at any time are correct and complete.
2.4. You must inform us promptly of any changes to the information that you provided when registering by updating your personal details, within the order deadlines specified on our Website.
2.5. The personal and payment details you give to us are governed by a strict privacy policy – please see the separate document by clicking here.
2.6. Following your set up of an account, we will email confirmation of your account set up to you. For your records, please print or save this email. For your records, please also print or save these terms and conditions for your future reference.
Password and security
3.1. When you register to use the Website you will be asked to create a password. You must keep this password confidential and must not disclose it or share it with anyone. You will be responsible for all activities and orders that occur or are submitted under your password. If you know or suspect that someone else knows your password you should notify us by contacting us immediately. We would also suggest that you also change your password immediately through the My account section of the Website.
3.2. If Docks Beers has reason to believe that there is likely to be a breach of security or misuse of the Docks Beers Website, we may require you to change your password or we may suspend or cancel your account.
3.3. The auto login facility is provided for your convenience. If you enable it, you remain liable for all activities and orders which are submitted to your account (save as stated in paragraph 8.9 below). You should therefore only enable auto login on your machine if you are sure that it will not be misused by anybody else. We do not advise enabling auto login if you use a shared computer.
Payment
4.1. You must ensure that Docks Beers are provided with details of a valid credit or debit card bearing either the Mastercard, Visa, Visa Electron, Delta or Switch symbol. You must update us with any change to these details within the deadlines specified on the Website. You can make changes to your payment details by updating them in the ‘My account’ section of the Website or by calling or writing to us via the contact details on the Website. Without prejudice to paragraph 5.10 below, we accept no liability for card security if card details are emailed to us as email is by nature insecure.
4.2. We do not store credit card details nor do we share customer details with any 3rd parties. More information about data security is in our privacy policy. Your card will automatically be charged for the goods which you have ordered, on or before the day we deliver them to you. We will submit our request for payment to your bank within 72 hours of your delivery, and normally within 24 hours. We cannot, however, accept any liability for how long it takes the bank to process the payment.
4.3. We reserve the right to suspend deliveries to you and/or terminate our agreement with you if we are refused authority from your card issuer for payment or we reasonably believe that payment will be refused. You agree to compensate us in full against any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable legal) costs and expenses that we may incur in obtaining payments due from you that you have not made in accordance with your agreement with us as set out in these Terms and Conditions.
4.4. If a payment has been rejected by your bank, you will not be able to amend, cancel or add to your orders via our Website. You must contact us to arrange payment and wait for that payment to go through before you can make changes to your order through the Website again. You can, however, change orders by calling or emailing us (contact details are on the Website), during our office opening hours and subject to our order deadlines.
Product purchases
5.1. Your submission of an order amounts to an offer to enter a contract to buy the Products from us; you cannot then withdraw or cancel your order except as stated below.
5.2. No order is accepted from you until our Website displays an order confirmation message. A contract for our sale of Products to you arises on our acceptance of your order.
5.3. Where we accept an order, we do all that we can to ensure that your order is fulfilled. Products are, however, subject to availability and market conditions and we do not always know if a Product is or will be available at the time of accepting an order. If we are unable to deliver an item you have ordered, we may offer a reasonable substitute. You may reject that substitute, and you will not be charged for it, or, if you have paid already, we will refund any amount paid for it. If we do not offer a substitute, we will remove the Product from your order so that you are not charged or, if you have paid already, we will refund you the price. We will, however, bear no liability for unavailability of Products.
5.4. Subject to clauses 5.8 and 5.9. below, the price that we charge you for the Products will be the price stated by us on the Website prior to you clicking the ‘Sign Up’ button.
5.5. Ordering a Product from us carries with it the obligation to pay for it unless we receive from you a cancellation of or change to your orders before the deadlines published on the Website. We are also happy to inform you of these deadlines by telephone if you wish to call us. You remain responsible for ensuring that any such change or cancellation is not only transmitted by you, but received by us, in time for the deadline. We reserve the right to deliver and charge in full for any order unless we have received notice of cancellation before the published deadline. This deadline is important since, typically, we make up the deliveries for despatch to you the day before delivery and obtain some of the Products especially to fulfil your order and may not be able to sell the Products elsewhere. Any payments you have made for orders which have been properly cancelled will be re-credited to you. Despite the foregoing, if you are a consumer, then you may also cancel the order in accordance with paragraph 9.3 below insofar as the order is for non-perishable Products.
5.6. Despite the above provision, you are entitled to cancel a payment for Products where fraudulent use has been made of your payment card by a person not acting, or to be treated as acting, as your agent. If you have already made a payment where your payment card has been so fraudulently used, then you should approach your card issuer for re-credit to your card.
5.7. We sell only to end users and our Products are not for re-sale. You warrant that you shall not re-sell any of the Products.
5.8. All prices for Products are inclusive of any applicable VAT.
Delivery of Products and inspection by you
6.1. We will make delivery to your address as stated when you set up an account or update that address. We reserve the right not to deliver to all locations and we will tell you when you apply to register an account with us whether we can deliver to your address. All deliveries are made using our preferred courier and as such deliveries can be made unattended. In the event that your delivery is stolen from your door or damaged while there, we do not accept liability, and will offer compensation at our discretion. We reserve the right to refuse to accept orders from any customer; considerations of delivery problems may give rise to such a refusal. Any changes to address details must be made before the order deadlines published on our Website.
6.2. We endeavour to keep your delivery day the same, but we reserve the right to change it temporarily or permanently and will tell you if we do so.
6.3. If we are unable to deliver to you, or have to deliver late, for reasons beyond our control, for example adverse weather conditions, strike actions, vehicle breakdown, traffic congestion or supplier failure, we cannot accept liability for any inconvenience or loss that this causes. We will not, of course, charge for Products unless or until we have delivered them to you.
6.4. We will not charge you for incorrect Products (Products that you have not ordered and substitutes for those Products which substitutes are not acceptable to you) or Products which we have not delivered in accordance with these Terms and Conditions. Otherwise our liability in respect of incorrect delivery is limited to the price of the incorrect Products or the Products not so delivered subject as provided in paragraph 10 below.
6.5. You must inspect the Products as soon as possible after delivery and notify us promptly if you find any defects, by calling us, emailing us or writing to us at the telephone number or address shown on our Website within 72 hours of delivery. We will replace or refund you 100% in full for defective Products. Otherwise our liability is limited as provided in paragraph 14.
