We sell products to consumers across the European Union (B2C).

Return conditions: returned goods must be unused, unopened if originally sealed, in the same condition as received and with all original packaging and seals intact. If the product packaging has been opened and the product cannot be returned for hygiene or other legal reasons, return may be refused in accordance with applicable consumer law.
Refunds will be processed in accordance with applicable EU consumer law and our Returns Policy (see Returns & Refunds section on the Website).
Note: some products or categories may be exempt from the right of withdrawal under EU law (e.g. custom-made items, sealed goods which are not suitable for return for health or hygiene reasons once unsealed). Any such exceptions will be clearly stated on the product page.
When you pay for products on the Website we may share the necessary information with payment service providers for the performance of the contract (payment processing). We rely on lawful bases such as performance of a contract and compliance with legal obligations for this processing.
We use third-party service providers (processors) to operate the Website and provide services (hosting, email, analytics, payment processing, delivery partners). Hostinger is our hosting provider and provides our cookie banner. We have implemented appropriate contractual safeguards (Data Processing Agreements) with processors to ensure your personal data is processed in accordance with applicable data protection law.
Where any processor transfers data outside the EEA, we will put in place appropriate safeguards (e.g. Standard Contractual Clauses) or rely on an adequate decision where applicable; details are available in the Privacy Policy.
Hostinger acts as our data processor. We have entered into a Data Processing Agreement with Hostinger which sets out responsibilities and security measures. Details of Hostinger’s data centres and any international transfers (and the safeguards applied) are available in our Privacy Policy.
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access. Despite these measures, no system can be 100% secure.

In case of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to individuals’ rights and freedoms we will notify the Data Protection Commission (Ireland) without undue delay and, where required, within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach.
Performance of contract: processing necessary to deliver the products you order, manage payments, fulfil and ship orders.
Legal obligations: processing necessary for accounting, tax and statutory record-keeping.
Legitimate interests: fraud detection, network and information security, direct communications relating to existing orders and customer service. We will balance our legitimate interests against your rights and freedoms.
