This website is owned and operated by Fairina Cheng (ABN 27 414 861 847), otherwise referred to as “we”, “us” or “our”. These Terms and Conditions govern your use of this website.
Access to and use of this website and the products and services available through this website, including placing orders or contributing content, comments or reviews (collectively, the “Services”) are subject to the following terms, conditions and notices (the “Terms and Conditions”). By using the Services, you agree to be legally bound by all of the Terms and Conditions below.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
The intellectual property rights for all products and content (including product designs, brand assets, text and photographic images) made available to you on or through this website remain our property or its licensor’s and are protected by copyright laws and treaties around the world.
You are not permitted to publish, modify, manipulate, distribute or otherwise reproduce, in any format, any of the products, content or copies of the content supplied to you or which appears on this website, nor may you use any such products or content in connection with any business or commercial enterprise without our prior written consent.
TERMS OF SALE
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under Australian consumer law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.
By placing an order for any Fairina Cheng jewellery through this website, you are offering to purchase a product on and subject to the following terms.
Placing an order
To place an order with us you must be over 18 years of age and possess a valid credit or debit card issued by a bank acceptable to us. All orders are subject to availability. We retain the right to refuse any request made by you.
When placing an order you undertake that all information that can be used to identify you as an individual (“Personal Identification Information”) you provide to us, including your name, email address, billing address and shipping address are true and accurate, that you are an authorised user of the credit or debit card used to place your order and that there are sufficient funds to cover the cost of the goods.
We collect Personal Identification Information only if it is voluntarily submitted to us. However, to engage in activities such as making purchases, certain Personal Identification Information is required. Read our Privacy Policy for more information on how we protect and manage your data.
After you place an order, you will receive an acknowledgement email confirming receipt of your order. This email will serve as an acknowledgement and will not constitute acceptance of your order. A contract between us and you will not be formed until we send you confirmation by email that the goods you ordered have been dispatched to you.
Pricing and availability
We try to ensure that all details, descriptions and prices that appear on our website are accurate, however it is possible that some errors may occur. If we discover an error in the price of any goods you have ordered we will inform you of this error as soon as possible and give you the option of reconfirming your order at the correct price or cancelling it. If we are unable to contact you we will treat the order as cancelled. If you choose to cancel the order and you have already paid for the goods, you will receive a full refund.
Postage and delivery
Postage costs, where applicable, may be charged in addition to the cost of the products you order. Charges are clearly displayed where applicable and included in the ‘Order Total’. Dispatch times may vary according to availability and may be subject to postal delays or force majeure for which we will not be responsible. Estimated processing times are stated in each product listing and are to be used as a guide only.
If goods are posted outside of Australia, certain taxes may be imposed by any applicable government agency and are payable by you. These may include, but are not limited to, sales, use, goods and services, value added, customs, excise or similar taxes or charges. To find out more about the taxes that may apply, contact the taxing authorities of the country your order is being shipped to. We are unable to advise on the taxes that may apply.
Payment
Upon receiving your order a standard authorisation check will be conducted on your payment card to ensure there are sufficient funds to fulfil the transaction via your chosen payment option (PayPal, Stripe or Afterpay). Your card will be debited upon authorisation being received. The monies received upon the debiting of your card shall be treated as a deposit against the value of the goods you wish to purchase. Once the goods have been dispatched and you have been sent a confirmation email, the monies paid as a deposit shall be used as consideration for the value of goods you have purchased.
Cancellation of orders
We reserve the right to cancel your order and refund the monies paid for any reason. This may include unforeseen supply or demand issues, if we suspect that you are acting fraudulently (such as using a credit card without proper authorisation) or if we suspect you are in breach of these Terms and Conditions.
We reserve the right to accept order cancellation requests at our sole discretion and offer a refund (full or partial), store credit or combination of the two, equivalent to the value of your cancelled order, minus any costs incurred by us in the course of processing your order.
Returns and exchanges
Returns and exchanges are accepted on all items other than gift certificates and custom items. A custom item is a product that is marked as a “Custom order” in the shop, a product that is listed in the shop that has been modified from its original form on your request or a product that is not listed in the shop that has been designed and created for you.
If you wish to organise a return or exchange, you must contact us within 7 business days of your receipt of the package. Returns and exchanges must be unused and in their original condition, safely repackaged and posted back to us via a trackable and insured postage option. We are unable to provide refunds or exchanges on items that we do not receive, whether due to errors caused by you, the postal service or force majeure. Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer and will not be reimbursed by us.
If the item is faulty or not as described, we will provide a full refund, exchange or store credit. If you choose to exchange the item, we will cover shipping of your exchanged item to the original shipping address.
If an item is returned due to an incorrect order or change-of-mind, we will provide a refund, store credit or combination of the two, equivalent to the value of your returned order. Shipping charges for postage of the exchanged item are payable by you.
Where a design to be exchanged contains unique stones or features that cannot be replaced, a replacement piece with similar stones or features, or a piece to the same value may be offered at our discretion.
Gift certificates
Gift certificates are in Australian dollars, are valid for 3 years from the date of purchase (unless otherwise specified and subject to Australian Consumer Law) and cannot be returned or exchanged for cash. Any refunds for returned items purchased using a gift certificate will be refunded as a store credit that can be applied towards a future purchase. If items are paid for partially with a gift certificate, the portion paid for with the gift certificate will be refunded as a store credit.
