2. YOUR STATUS

By placing an order through our Website, you confirm that:
1. you are legally capable of entering into binding contracts; and
2. you are at least 18 years old.

3. OUR RECURRING DELIVERY SERVICE

We offer a recurring delivery service and when you sign up to order Products, you are signing up for a rolling weekly contract which can be cancelled in accordance with condition 6.2 below.
Skipping deliveries: If you are going away for a while or just don't fancy our Products for a week or two, you can skip up to 6 weeks in advance on the Website. Do remember that you can cancel at any time if before midnight 4 days before the delivery date for the next week's order (see condition 7.2 below).
Meal selection: It is your obligation to select which Products you would like for the next order. If you fail to make a selection, we will select the Products for you based on the dietary preferences set up in your account. If we cannot provide you with the Products you have ordered, we will try our best to contact you in order for you to select an alternative Product. If we cannot get hold of you, we reserve the right to substitute your meal choice for an alternative or to not deliver to you.

4. OUR PRODUCTS

The images of the Products on our Website are for illustrative purposes only. Your Products may vary slightly from those images as computers and other devices can display colours differently and food itself varies in colour and size. The packaging of the Products may also vary from that shown in images on our Website.
Any weights of the Products are approximations only, unless we state otherwise.
While we will provide general advice, recipes and instructions relating to our Products, any advice, recipes and instructions provided by Slimming World Kitchen relating to our Products have been produced in order to help you in using the Products and to give guidance. These are provided for general information only. We accept no liability for any loss, damage or injury arising as a result of the advice, recipes or instructions provided to you on our Website or in conjunction with any of our Products.
You are responsible for opening and inspecting the Products upon delivery and then storing them correctly (for example, in the fridge). You are also completely responsible for the preparation and cooking of our Products. We accept no liability for any loss, damage or injury arising as a result of your incorrect storage, preparation or cooking of our Products.
If you have an allergy, you are responsible for checking our packaging and Website to ensure that a Product does not contain a relevant allergen to you. If you are not sure, please contact us on 020 3807 8461 or at [email protected]. All of the packaging for our Products is labelled to show any allergen advice, but please note that our Products may contain allergens including cereals containing gluten (wheat, rye, barley and oats), crustaceans, eggs, fish, peanuts, soybeans, milk, lactose, nuts, celery, mustard, sesame, sulphur dioxide and sulphites, lupin and molluscs. All Products are packed in a facility that handles all the above noted Allergens. Any severe allergy sufferers should contact us before placing an order.
If we are unable to supply you with a Product, for example because we cannot meet your requested delivery date or because of an error in the price on our Website as referred to in condition 9.4, we will inform you of this by email and we will not process your order. If you have already paid for the Products, we will refund you the full amount, including any delivery costs charged, as soon as possible.
We will try our best to supply exactly what you have ordered, including the correct type and weight of ingredient, but we reserve the right to substitute such ingredients that we may not be able to practically and reasonably obtain with similar ingredients. If you are not happy with any substitution, please contact us in accordance with condition 6.6 below. We will not charge you for incorrect Products (Products that you have not ordered and substitutes for those Products that are not acceptable to you).

5. HOW THE CONTRACT IS FORMED BETWEEN YOU AND US

Please take time to read and check your order at each page of the order process. After placing an order for our Products, you will receive an email from us acknowledging that we have received your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy a Product. The contract between us for the purchase of our Products ("Contract") will only be formed when we take payment from you. In the event it transpires that, for whatever reason, we have failed to take payment from you after your box has been dispatched as per clause 9.5 below, you will be liable for the costs of the dispatched box. We are not under any obligation to accept an order from you.
The Contract will relate only to those Products whose dispatch we have confirmed in an email that confirms that the Product has been dispatched ("Dispatch Confirmation"). We will not be obliged to supply any other Products that may have been part of your order until the dispatch of such Products has been confirmed in a separate Dispatch Confirmation.

6. YOUR CONSUMER RIGHT OF RETURN AND REFUND

As our Products contain fresh and perishable food, you are not entitled to the "normal" right to return goods within 14 days after the day you receive them, simply if you change your mind. This is because the food is likely to have a best before date within only a few days of delivery of the Products.
Right to cancel an order (or the whole subscription) if you notify us before midnight 4 days before delivery: For example, if you have ordered Products for delivery on Sunday and then change your mind or decide for any reason that you do not want to receive a Product, you can notify us of your decision (see "How to contact us" below) and cancel your order before midnight on the Wednesday before that Sunday. We agree to cancel your order and will not charge you for it. You will need to tell us whether you just want to cancel your next order(s) or your whole subscription with us.
Right of return and refund if the Product is defective or not as described: Because you are a consumer, we are under a legal duty to supply Products that are in conformity with this Contract. You have legal rights in relation to Products that are defective or are not as described. If the Products we deliver to you are defective or are not as described on our Website, you should contact us and report such defect or misdescription as soon as possible (we ask that this is within 3 days from delivery of the Products and if possible, we ask that you send us a photograph as evidence of the defective or misdescribed Product - this will assist in processing your refund quickly).
We will ask you to safely dispose of such Product and if we agree that it is defective or misdescribed (acting reasonably), we will offer you the choice of either an exchange or a refund of the price of the Product in full.
We will refund you within 14 days after the day on which (whichever is the earlier of):
1. the day we receive the Product back from you;
2. the day on which you provide us with acceptable evidence that you have sent the Product back to us; or
3. the day on which you provide us with acceptable evidence that the Product is defective or misdescribed and we have agreed for you to throw the Product away safely.
We try our best to ensure that our Products are perfect 100% of the time, but we are sure you will agree that this is not always possible. In the event of a minor error (for example, failing to include one ingredient which is not the main ingredient, or substituting a red pepper for a yellow pepper), we reserve the right to use our discretion as to whether a full refund is applicable or not. We will act reasonably and may offer you a partial refund, credit or a voucher. In the event that we apply a credit or voucher to your account in respect of an error or as a reward, we reserve the right to remove it if it has not been used by you after 8 weeks (if you have no deliveries scheduled within this period) without prior notice to you. It will be entirely at our discretion if we then decide to re-apply the amount of this credit in the event of an enquiry by you.
We will refund you by the method you used to pay
Your legal rights: Advice about your legal right to cancel the Contract is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office. Your legal rights are not affected by your right of return and refund in this, condition 7 or anything else in these terms and conditions.
How to contact us: If you wish to cancel a Contract and/or return a Product to us for any of the reasons set out above, you just need to let us know within the applicable timeframe. The easiest way to do this is by using the My Account section on the website. You can close your account using the button on the My Details tab. On occasion, we may like to discuss the cancellation of your subscription or closing of your account with you, and we might ask you to call us rather than cancelling through My Account. If you do not wish to contact us in this way and would prefer to cancel online, or if any such phone call would incur you a cost, then please email us at [email protected]. You can also report errors with the Product on the My Recipes tab. Alternatively, you can email us at [email protected], or contact our Customer Services team by telephone on 020 3807 8461 . If you are emailing us or writing to us, please include details of your order to help us it (and photographic evidence if applicable). If you send us your cancellation notice by email, then your cancellation is effective from the date you send us the email.
Nothing in these terms and conditions shall affect your statutory rights of cancellation.

7. DELIVERY

We will confirm if we can deliver to you and, if we can, your estimated delivery date, in the Dispatch Confirmation.
If you order a Product before midnight on a Wednesday, we will deliver your Product that Sunday, and if you order a Product after midnight on a Thursday, it will be delivered to you the following Monday (and so on in accordance with our delivery timeframes), unless there are exceptional circumstances - for example, if delivery is affected by an Event Outside Our Control (see condition 17for our responsibilities). Please note that delivery dates are estimates only.
We deliver thousands of boxes across Mainland UK. For the Isle of Wight, we only deliver Monday to Saturday. There are also areas of the Scottish Highlands that we cannot deliver to. Please contact us on 020 3807 8461 or [email protected] if you live in these areas.
It is your responsibility to ensure that you have given us the correct delivery address and any special delivery instructions.
If you are not in when we deliver your Products, we may try again the day after and/or leave your Products on your designated safe place at our discretion. If we have left your Products in your safe place, or another place deemed safe by our driver, and they are stolen or damaged, we do not accept any liability, but may offer you a refund or other compensation at our complete discretion.

8. RISK AND TITLE

The Products will be at your risk on completion of delivery.
Ownership of the Products will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products, including any delivery charges.

9. PRICE AND PAYMENT

The price of the Products and any delivery charges will be as quoted on our Website from time to time, except in cases of obvious error. Product prices are inclusive of VAT at the applicable rate. If you require a VAT receipt, then please contact us at [email protected] Product prices are also inclusive of GST at the applicable rate (where our customers are resident in Jersey) and we shall be responsible for paying this charge on behalf of our customers as part of the price of the Product.
Product prices and any delivery charges are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which we have already sent you a Dispatch Confirmation.
While of course we do our best to ensure all our pricing is accurate, it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products listed on our Website may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where a Product's correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Product to you. If a Product's correct price is higher than the price stated on our Website, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the Product, or reject your order and notify you of such rejection.
We are under no obligation to provide the Product to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after we have sent you a Dispatch Confirmation, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as an error.
Payment for all Products must be by credit or debit card and we require payment before we dispatch the Products (subject to any failure to take payment as set out in clause 5.1 above). We use Checkout.com's payment services to carry out and process your payments.

10. DISCOUNT CODES

You may use a discount code if it has been issued or authorised by us for our Products. You are only able to use them once per household.
Discount codes may only be applied to future orders and cannot be exchanged or refunded for cash.
We may apply maximum limits to the value of gift cards and the amount you can claim a discount code on.
We reserve the right to cancel discount codes at any time. We also reserve the right to reject discount codes and gift cards, and to cancel your subscription if we suspect any fraud.
We will not accept liability if discount codes or gift cards are lost, stolen or damaged.

11. WARRANTY (OUR PROMISES)

Subject to the disclaimers set out in condition 12.3, we promise to you that any Product purchased from us through our Website will conform in all material respects with its description, be of satisfactory quality, and be reasonably fit for all the purposes for which products of that kind are commonly supplied at the time of delivery.

1. a modification or alteration of the Products by anyone other than us;
2. your or any third party's use of the Products in a manner contrary to the instructions given to you by us;
3. fair wear and tear, wilful damage, abnormal storage (i.e. not in a fridge) or working conditions, accident, negligence by you or by any third party; or

2. exclude or limit our liability for death or personal injury resulting from our negligence;
3. exclude or limit our liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation;

5. exclude or limit our liability for defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987; or
6. exclude or limit our liability for any other matter for which it would be illegal for us to exclude or attempt to exclude our liability.
Subject to condition 12.1, if we fail to comply with these terms and conditions, we shall only be liable to you for the purchase price of the Products and, subject to condition 12.3, any losses that you suffer as a result of our failure to comply (whether arising in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise) which are a foreseeable consequence of such failure. We are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable at the time we enter into a Contract.
Subject to condition 12.1, we will not be liable for losses that result from our failure to comply with these terms and conditions that fall into the following categories: loss of income or revenue; loss of business; loss of profits; loss of anticipated savings; loss or corruption of data, information or software; or waste of management or office time. However, this condition 12.3 will not prevent claims for loss of or damage to your tangible property that are foreseeable or any other claims for direct loss that are not excluded in this condition 12.3.

19. SEVERABILITY

If any of these terms and conditions or any provisions of a Contract are determined by any competent authority to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, such term, condition or provision will to that extent be severed from the remaining terms, conditions and provisions which will continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.
