YOUR STATUTORY RIGHTS
Please don't be frightened by these Terms & Conditions, we are not trying to bamboozle or mislead you in any way at all. We are all aware that any legal document can be confusing, but we need to protect our self just as you want to protect yourself. There is plenty of 'legal speak' on this page, but we have changed some parts to make it easier to read and understand. We have also put in some punctuation which legal people seem not to want to put into a contract. Basically, our website is here to promote our products and services which, hopefully, means that you will buy from us. Nothing on our site is designed to or intended to mislead or confuse you or to give incorrect information. We are an honest company.
Many people are, quite rightly, concerned about the security of their personal information just as we are when we use other websites. We GUARANTEE that the only personal information we ask from you is the information we require to process your order or to make your ordering process easier or your use of our website easier. We will NEVER sell your information or give your information to any person or company who is not directly connected to your order, for example, a courier.
We want you to be happy and to feel comfortable when using our website or when dealing with us in any way. If there is anything of which you are unsure, either on this website or when dealing directly with us, about then please tell us. You can email us using our CONTACT US page or call us on 01673 895130.
