TERMS OF SALE

- You confirm your order for products on our website by pressing the ‘Pay Now’ button at the end of the checkout process.
- You will receive an order confirmation email detailing the product(s) you have ordered provided the email address we hold for you has been entered correctly. If the email address is wrong you will not receive an email. This is not an order confirmation or order acceptance from Dove Mill.
- When your order is dispatched from our warehouse we will send you a shipping confirmation email.
- Order acceptance and the completion of the contract between you and Dove Mill will take place on the dispatch to you of the products ordered from our warehouse, unless we have notified you that we do not accept your order or you have cancelled it in accordance with the instructions given for contract cancellation.
- Risk of loss and damage of product(s) passes to you on the date when the product(s) are delivered.
- If due to technical errors in pricing and/or details incorrectly shown on our website, inability to gain authorisation on your payment or your product being unavailable from stock, we reserve the right to not accept orders.
DESCRIPTION OF PRODUCTS
Each product purchased is sold subject to its Product Description which sets out additional Specific Conditions related to that product including, without limitation, terms and conditions concerning estimated dispatch dates and times, warranties, after-sales service and guarantees.
We will take all reasonable care to ensure that all details, descriptions and prices of products appearing on www.dovemill.co.uk are correct at the time when the relevant information was entered onto the system. Although we aim to keep the website as up to date as possible, the information including Product Descriptions appearing on this website at a particular time may not always reflect the position exactly at the moment you place an order.
Please take into consideration that all the sizes stated on our website are approximate and the colours in product images may appear slightly different depending on the resolution and settings of your device screen, of which we cannot be held responsible.
PRICING POLICY
The price you pay is the price displayed on this website at the time we receive your order with the following exception:
- While we try and ensure that all prices on our website are accurate, errors may occur from time to time. If we discover an error in the price of a product(s) you have ordered we will inform you as soon as possible and give you the option of re-confirming your order at the correct price or cancelling it. Therefore we cannot confirm the price of a product until your order is accepted in accordance with our Terms of Sale. If we are unable to contact you within 48 hours we will treat the order as cancelled. If you cancel the order, you will receive a full refund.
- If the online price of the product(s) is reduced after you have placed your order, but before you have received the order, we will happily honour this price reduction. Please contact us for assistance.

3D SECURE
Your security is our highest priority and we have invested in 3D Secure to give our customers complete peace of mind.
3D Secure is a security measure now required by most banks. This extra step to complete your order protects your card from fraudulent use online. When you click on the 'Pay Now' button you will see a window open up entitled 3D Secure Authentication. The onscreen instructions will take you through the required steps.
When submitting your card details, depending on the card type you have entered for your payment, you will be redirected to a secure Visa or Master Card page. These pages are on your bank’s secure servers and at no stage will Dove Mill be able to see or access this information.
If you have already registered your card for 3D Secure, you will be asked to enter your 3D Secure password. If you have not registered your card before, you will have the option to do so, there and then. If you have not registered your card and do not wish to do so you may have the option to skip the process depending on your card type and your bank. Some banks are forcing mandatory sign up to the scheme to upgrade your security to the highest level with immediate effect.
Dove Mill recommends that your sign up to this new security measure, it is for your protection when shopping online, it will soon become that standard mechanism for all online shopping websites.
Your bank/card provider will be happy to provide you with more information regarding 3D Secure.

WEEE REGULATIONS & COMPLIANCE
The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive is now UK law. The legislation aims to make producers pay for the collection, treatment and recovery of waste electrical equipment. The regulations also mean that suppliers of equipment like high street shops and internet retailers must allow consumers to return their waste equipment free of charge. The amount of WEEE we throw away is increasing by around 5% each year, making it the fastest growing waste stream in the UK. Much of the UK’s WEEE ends up in landfill, where the lead and other toxins it contains can cause soil and water contamination. This can have a harmful effect on natural habitat, wildlife and also human health. Many electrical items that we throw away can be repaired or recycled. Recycling items help to save our natural finite resources and also reduces the environmental and health risks associated with sending electrical goods to landfill. Distributors of new Electric and Electronic Equipment (EEE) have a part to play in reducing the amount of WEEE going into landfill sites.
Dove Mill is obliged under these regulations to offer our customers free take-back of their WEEE on a like-for-like basis when they buy a new Electrical or Electronic product from us. For example, if a customer bought a new lamp from us we would accept their old lamp and prevent it going into a landfill site by disposing of it safely. Customers must return their WEEE item to us within 28 days of purchasing their new item – if you intend to return your old item to us for this purpose, please contact us by email together with your order number, so we can make collection arrangements. Under the WEEE Regulations, all new electrical goods should now be marked with the crossed out wheelie bin symbol shown below. Goods are marked with this symbol to show that they were produced after 13th August 2005, and should be disposed of separately from normal household waste so that they can be recycled.
From now on all new electrical products that can be recycled will carry this ‘crossed out wheelie bin' symbol to help you remember to recycle them.
All items returned under the WEEE take-back, should be marked with the below address details:
Dove Mill
Grane Road Mill
Grane Road
Haslingden
