Shop Terms & Conditions

Please read this document carefully as it contains the terms and conditions that you agree to be bound by if you continue to use the Whitgiftian Association shop. The below terms and conditions (“the Conditions”) and the Terms of Use apply to your use of this online shop and to any purchases you make through it.

Purchasing Products

Eligibility to order criteria:

You may only purchase products:

  • Available for sale and details of which appear on the Whitgiftian Association shop; and
  • For personal use, either by yourself or by your intended recipient(s) of the products. The Whitgiftian Association reserves the right to decline any order that it has reasonable cause to believe is for onward sale other than through approved distribution channels.

The Whitgiftian Association takes all reasonable care to ensure that all details, descriptions and prices of products appearing in the online shop are correct at the time when the relevant information is placed onto the shop. Although every effort is made to keep shop as up to date as possible, the information appearing at a particular time may not always reflect the position exactly at the moment you place an order.

Ordering Products:

  • Once you have selected the products you wish to order, click on the “Checkout” button at the end of the checkout process.
  • Once you have clicked on the “Checkout” button, you have made a binding offer for the sale of goods. Your offer at this stage is still subject to our acceptance. In order that we may accept your offer, we obtain an authorisation from your Credit card company for the amount detailed on the order summary page. We are not taking funds from your card at this stage, although the amount available for you to spend will be reduced by the authorisation. This is a normal process with the banks. If your credit card should not give an authorisation, your order will not be processed further.
  • The Whitgiftian Association will e-mail you to confirm your product order has been received.
  • We are deemed to have accepted your offer, and a corresponding contract of sale for the products you have ordered is concluded between you and the Whitgiftian Association only upon those products being shipped to you, as detailed in the confirmation e-mail.

The Whitgiftian Association may refuse or be unable to process your order if:

  • The product you ordered is discontinued or no longer available.
  • Your credit card / PayPal does not give authorisation for the payment of the purchase price
  • You do not meet the eligibility to order criteria set out above.
