Terms and Conditions

Wanneer u een bestelling plaatst op de Össur Webshop, accepteert u de algemene voorwaarden.

1. USE OF THIS SITE

This site is provided to you free of charge for your personal use subject to these Terms & Conditions. By using this Site you agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions. All orders and purchases made on this Site will also be governed by these Terms & Conditions and will be between you and www.ossur.co.uk. Your contract will not under any circumstances be with any other party, including any retailer whose web site may have directed you to this Site. THESE TERMS DO NOT AFFECT YOUR STATUTORY RIGHTS.

2. PRICES

The prices payable for the items that you order are clearly set out in the web site. If, by mistake, we have under-priced an item, we will not be liable to supply that item to you at the stated price, provided that we notify you before we dispatch the item concerned. All prices are in pounds sterling and are expressed inclusive of any VAT payable unless otherwise stated. Prices may vary.   

3. AVAILABILITY

If for any reason beyond our reasonable control, we are unable to supply a particular item, we will notify you as soon as possible. In some areas our products and services are not available - please contact us with any questions. We only deliver to the UK.

4. ACCEPTANCE

There will be no contract of any kind between you and us unless and until we actually dispatch the goods to you. At any point up until then, we may decline to supply the goods to you without giving any reason. At the moment that we accept your order, by dispatching the goods (and not before), a contract will be made between you and us. If we decline to supply goods and payment has already been taken from your credit or debit card, we shall credit your credit or debit card with the price of the goods within 30 days of declining your order. We shall not be obliged to offer you any additional compensation for disappointment suffered.

If there is a problem with your order in terms of availability of the goods or our ability to deliver, we shall contact you by telephone or email as soon as reasonably practicable.

If the goods that you ordered are not available, we reserve the right to substitute goods of a similar specification and quality.

5. DELIVERY & SHORTAGES

Delivery will be made to the address specified by you on the completed order form. Once goods have been delivered to you they will be held at your risk and we will not be liable for their loss or destruction. Please note that it may not be possible to deliver to some locations. All deliveries are by third party carriers. If you are not able to take delivery of the products, depending on the carrier used, your goods will either be stored at the depot nearest to your address until you can collect them or the carrier will attempt to redeliver the goods to your address. We shall use our best endeavours to secure delivery within 30 days of receipt of your order but shall not be liable for loss occasioned by delay in delivery arising out of any cause beyond our control.

If you order items with different availability dates, we will hold all the items until the last item is delivered.

However, on occasion we may choose to have each item delivered separately and we reserve the right to charge you a delivery charge each time.

We can only be held responsible for shortages if we are notified by phone, email or in writing within 7 days of delivery date.

Please be aware that the cut off for next day delivery is 4:30pm. Any orders received after this time for next day delivery will only be dispatched on the following day.

6. RETURNS

You have the right to return your order up to 3 months after the purchase date by calling our Customer Care Department on 03450 064 040 (9am - 5pm, Monday – Friday) and obtaining a Returns number. All goods returned must be in their original packaging. Soiled, custom manufactured, modified or obsolete goods are non-returnable. Össur reserve the right to charge a 20% restocking fee. Delivery Charges are non-refundable.

Please be aware that failure to obtain a valid returns number prior to returning any goods to us will mean we are unable to track your return and therefore be unable to refund any monies owed. It is your responsibility to ensure that the goods returned to us are packaged with reasonable care and attention to ensure they arrive to us in a fit and proper state.

Returned items should be sent to:

Össur UK Ltd
Unit No. 1, S:Park
Hamilton Road
Stockport
SK1 2AE

For any queries relating to your return please email: [email protected]

www.ossur.co.uk cannot be held responsible for non-delivery of returned goods so we recommend you obtain a certificate of posting from the Post Office or Courier of your choosing.

7. PAYMENT

You can pay by credit/debit card. Your credit-debit card details will be encrypted to minimise the possibility of unauthorised access or disclosure. Authority for payment must be given at the time of order. Our liability to you in connection with any order will not exceed the total price charged for the goods.
