If the goods are out of stock and we are unable to re-stock (for example, if the goods are discontinued) we reserve the right to cancel your order and refund any payment within 7 business days. If we do cancel your order, the cancellation will be confirmed by us in writing.

5.3.       Time is not of the essence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary any stated dates and times for delivery are estimates only and time will not be of the essence of the Contract. Goods will be sent to the address provided by you in your order and as stated in the Order Confirmation. Please note that goods may be sent in instalments.

5.4.       Title. Title to goods will not pass to you until we have received payment in full for those goods and the goods have been successfully delivered to you.

5.5.       Import taxes. If your delivery address is outside of the United Kingdom the goods may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once a shipment reaches your country. Any such additional duties, taxes or charges for customs clearance must be borne by you. You should note that customs policies vary widely from country to country. If your delivery address is outside of the United Kingdom we advise you to contact your local customs office for further information.

5.6.       Customs inspections. If your delivery address is outside of the United Kingdom you should note that international shipments may be subject to opening and inspection by customs authorities. We are not responsible for any damage to the packaging of goods caused by such inspections.

6.          CANCELLATION, RETURN AND REFUND

6.1.       Hassle free refund. We are confident that after experiencing the joys of natural foot freedom, your feet will not want to go back to 'normal' shoes. However, if you change your mind within 100 days of receipt of your goods, you can return your shoes for a full, hassle free refund. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary this hassle free refund right does not apply to any Vivohealth Hub purchases.

6.2.       Exchanging sizes. We cannot exchange the size or style of your shoes. You will need to create a return for the goods which you have received and also create a new order on our website.

6.3.       Third party retailers. If you bought any Vivobarefoot goods via an independent store or website, please contact them directly for their return policy.

6.4.       UK and EU consumers. If you are a consumer in the UK or the European Union:
             6.4.1.          You have a legal right to cancel a Contract under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 during the period set out in clause 6.4.2 below. This means that during the relevant period, if you change your mind or decide for any other reason that you do not want to receive or keep any goods, you can notify us of your decision to cancel the Contract and receive a refund. This right of cancellation is in addition to your rights in relation to faulty or wrongly-delivered goods. This is your statutory right of cancellation of the Contract.

              6.4.2.          Your statutory right to cancel a Contract starts from the date on which we e-mail you the Order Confirmation, which is when the Contract between us is formed. Your statutory deadline for cancelling the Contract is 14 calendar days after the day on which you receive the relevant goods. If you order multiple goods in one order but some goods are delivered on different days, your statutory cancellation period ends at the end of 14 days after the day on which the last of the goods were delivered.

              6.4.3.          To cancel a Contract, you just need to let us know that you have decided to cancel. The easiest way to do this is to complete and return to us the cancellation form provided with the goods. You can also contact our Customer Services team at customerservices@vivobarefoot.com or by telephone on +44 (0) 207 0480600 between Monday to Sunday (10:00am – 8:00pm).

6.6.       What happens if you cancel. If you cancel your Contract or return goods to us we will:

              6.6.1.          Refund you the price you paid for the goods. We are permitted by law to reduce your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods (for example if you have damaged the goods and/or packaging the refund value may be adjusted accordingly).

              6.6.2.          Refund any delivery costs you have paid, although, as permitted by law, the maximum refund will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive method we offer (provided that this is a common and generally acceptable method).

              6.6.3.          Make any refunds due to you as soon as possible and no later than 14 days from the day on which we receive your communication that you are cancelling your Contract.

              6.6.4.          If goods are faulty or wrongly-delivered, we will refund the price of the goods in full, together with any applicable delivery charges. We will also either collect the goods from you free of charge or refund any reasonable costs you incur in returning the goods to us.

              6.6.5.          We will refund you on the credit card or debit card used by you to pay. If you used vouchers to pay for the goods, we may refund you in vouchers. If you paid using Klarna, please refer to the Klarna website here: https://www.klarna.com/uk/customer-service/how-long-do-refunds-take/ 

6.7.       What if goods have been delivered before you decide to cancel. If any goods have been delivered before you decide to cancel your Contract:

               6.7.1.          Then you must return the goods to us without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days after the day on which you let us know you wish to cancel your Contract.

               6.7.2.          Unless the goods are faulty or not as described, you will be responsible for the cost of returning the goods to us.

6.8.       Consumers may have additional statutory rights. As a consumer, you have legal rights in relation to goods that are faulty or not as described. These legal rights are not affected by your right to return or refund in this clause 6 or elsewhere in these ToS (including the policies referred to within these ToS). 

6.9.       Governing law and jurisdiction. These ToS (and any Contracts for goods created in accordance with these ToS) and any dispute or claim arising out of these ToS and any Contract (including any non-contractual disputes and claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales and subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
