Terms of Sale UK

By placing your order and making payment through the Malts.com (https://malts.com) website (hereafter the Website) you have entered into a contract with Intervino Limited, for the provision of Whisky and Whisky related products (hereafter all called “Product(s)”). It is important you read these Terms of Sale (“Terms of Sale”) carefully before ordering any products through the Website because they govern our relationship with you in relation to your purchase. Please understand that if you refuse to accept these Terms of Sale, you will not be able to order any Product(s) from the Website. You may have other rights granted by mandatory law, and these Terms of Sale do not affect these except if the two are inconsistent. If this is the case then these Terms of Sale will override any other rights which you may have, unless this is not permitted by law.

HOW YOUR CONTRACT WITH US IS FORMED

Orders are submitted via the Website in the following way. Once you are ready to make a purchase, you will check out of your shopping basket. The website will ask for your payment details which will be processed on a secure server. When your payment has been processed your order information will be passed to us including your mailing address. We will not hold any of your payment details. It is your responsibility to ensure that your order is correct before submitting it to us. You will have 2 hours from the point of order to change your delivery address/name. If you have any problems with your order, you should contact us via email at customerservices@intervino.co.uk. Our customer services team will respond to you directly via email.

We will send you a confirmatory email to acknowledge that your order has been successfully placed with information on the product that you have selected (“Confirmatory Email”). On receipt of your order we will check to make sure we are able to fulfil your order. Where we accept your order, we will confirm such order by sending you a second email ("Dispatch Email") confirming your order and dispatch of the Product(s) to the delivery address you have requested. This is sent out automatically by us to the email address you register with. By sending you the Dispatch Email and thereby confirming and accepting your order, the contract (“Contract”) between us is formed. You should check both the Confirmatory Email and Dispatch Email for accuracy and let us know by email immediately if there are any errors. If there are any problems with your order which we wish to query, you will be contacted by a representative from Intervino. Invoices shall be raised by Intervino and sent to you in an email.

PRICE AND PAYMENT

Prices and delivery costs are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders which have already been confirmed in the Dispatch Email. Prices are checked regularly. However, if we find the price has changed or that there has been a pricing error when we receive your order we will contact you and ask if you wish to proceed at the correct price. The prices for the Product(s) indicated on the Website and at checkout include all local taxes and duty, which may be payable in respect of the Product(s) but excludes the delivery costs which will be automatically added to the total amount due when you view your items in your shopping basket. All payments must be made at the time of order of the Product(s) by you. Payment for all Product(s) must be by credit or debit card or via PayPal. If we are unable to accept your order for any reason then we will, at our option, either reject your debit or credit card or refund any money paid by you in respect of that order. We will not dispatch the Product(s) until we receive payment in full. Please note, it is possible that your card issuer may charge you an online handling fee or processing fee. We are not responsible for this. For payment by card, all credit and debit cardholders may be subject to authorisation and authentication. If the issuer of your payment card or our service provider refuses to, or does not for any reason authorise or validate the payment, we will not be liable in these circumstances for any delay or non-delivery in respect of the Product(s) which you have ordered as a result.

DELIVERY, TITLE AND RISK

Deliveries take approximately 5-7 business days (engraved bottles will take 7-10 days). We will notify you once your order has been dispatched and provide you with a tracking number that you can use to track the shipment. If you have any further questions, please email our friendly delivery team at malts@intervino.co.uk. Please note: this does not apply to pre-ordered products (products being offered for purchase in advance of arrival at our warehouse), as further delays can occur here. You will receive your tracking number as soon as your order has been shipped, with which you can track it.

We can only deliver Product(s) to addresses within Mainland UK or Isle of Man

Ownership and risk of the Product(s) will pass to you on delivery.

CAN I ORDER ITEMS TO BE DELIVERED OUTSIDE THE UK?

Unfortunately, we are unable to deliver internationally and can only deliver to Mainland UK and Isle of Man at present. Please note this means we are unable to deliver to Northern Ireland.

DAMAGED OR DEFECTIVE PRODUCT(S)

Subject to any specific warranties those implied by law, we do not offer any warranty or guarantee on our Product(s). You should inspect the Product(s) when you receive them for defects or damage. If you find a defect or damage you must tell us as soon as possible. Please note you will be required to provide photographic evidence of the damaged goods. Without photographic evidence of damage we will be unable to process any claim you may wish to make. On proof of damaged or defective goods we will either refund you or replace the damaged goods. We reserve the right to request you to return the Product(s) to our Customer Service Centre, at no cost to you. If you prefer to receive a replacement of the Product(s) we will replace the Product(s) at no extra charge to you where this is reasonably practicable. If we request you to return the Product(s) to us we will refund the cost of the return of the item to us by you. Nothing in this section affects your statutory legal rights.
