ILINKA DESIGN STUDIO TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Please read the following important terms and conditions before you buy anything on our website and check that they contain everything you want and nothing that you are not willing to agree to.

Summary of some of your key rights

The Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 say that up to 14 days after receiving your products, in most cases, you can change your mind and get a full refund. This is also known as the ‘cooling off period’. However, given that some of the products we sell are made to order, when you order these products, you are not entitled to a refund because you change your mind. However, the Consumer Rights Act 2015 says all products must be as described, fit for purpose and of satisfactory quality and so nothing in these terms affects statutory rights applicable to you and our products. For detailed information from Citizens Advice please visit www.citizensadvice.org.uk or call 0808 223 1133.

The information in this summary box summarises some of your key rights. It is not intended to replace the contract below, which you should read carefully.
