Dear Valued customer it is with great regret that we announce that Alzoolstyle will be closing as of 16 July 2020. We thank you for your loyal patronage over the last few years. We want to bring to your attention the revised terms and conditions that will apply to purchases made during this time. Importantly please note that returns and exchanges will not be permitted unless the item delivered is damaged or incorrectly fulfilled and store credits will need to be used during this period otherwise our policy on unused store credits set out below shall apply. In exchange, we are offering products at deep discounts. During this period we will continue to strive to ensure our customers receive an effortless shopping experience and we hope that you enjoy all our platform has to offer for this last month of trading.
PLATFORM TERMS
Please read these Terms and any other terms of use posted on the Platform as together they form our Platform Terms governing your utilization of our Platform and Platform services (including the Platform Call Centre and Mobile application). We may change these Platform Terms from time to time without notice to you by posting the updated Platform Terms on the Platform, so please be sure to check regularly for updates. When you place an order through our Platform or the Platform Call Centre, you are deemed to have consented to the latest version of the Platform Terms then posted on our Platform. If a change in law means that we have to change our Platform Terms after you have placed an Order but before it has been fulfilled, we are obliged to apply that change to your Order. In all other cases, the version posted at the time your order was placed will apply. If you do not agree to be bound by the Platform Terms, you should not use the Platform.

We aim to make the Platform and its associated services available to as many of you as possible. However, we do require that you are at least 18 years of age, able to lawfully: (i) make payment through one of our accepted tender types; (ii) agree to these Terms; and (iii) enter into binding Orders with us. Please refer to the Delivery section below. The Platform is for your personal or gift use only and commercial usage is not permitted.

ORDERS
When you place an order with us, then subject to your rights to cancel or return the items, you commit to buy the items described in that Order, at the price indicated including any delivery fees, cash handling fees, taxes and duties where applicable.
Orders are subject to our acceptance, which we may withhold in our sole discretion including for reasons such as ineligibility, inability to confirm payment authorization, suspected fraud, shipping restrictions and stock availability. Items in your Platform basket are not reserved until your Order is paid for. Where you first elect to pay for your Order via cash on delivery, we will send you a one-off SMS asking you to validate your selection and confirm your account information prior to dispatch. Please click on the link contained in the SMS to complete this verification step. If you do not complete this step within 3 calendar days of the day on which we sent you the SMS, we will cancel your Order.
The Platform (or our Platform Call Centre) may contain or provide information regarding the availability of merchandise. This information can be used to estimate the likelihood that an item will be available immediately upon Order placement.
Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that an item stated to be available will actually be available right away, as inventory can change significantly throughout the day. In rare cases, a product may be available when you place an Order but sold out by the time we process the Order. Should this happen, we will notify you. Receipt of your Order will be acknowledged by email. However, the Order is only confirmed when you receive a notification from us confirming dispatch of the relevant item(s). No party other than us has the authority to confirm acceptance of the Order.
PAYMENT
We currently accept the following tender types for Orders placed on our Platform/through our Platform Call Centre: VISA, MASTERCARD, Paypal, and online credit.
PRICES Prices on the Platform are displayed in SDG, and exclude any services you may elect to pair the purchase with, delivery costs, cash handling fees, taxes or duties to which the purchase may be subject. Any such additional costs will be displayed before your final check out. Where you purchase using a payment card denominated in a different currency to SDG, the payment will be subject to the currency exchange rate applied by your card issuer at the time your payment is completed. The destination you ask us to deliver to, the items & services you select and the method of delivery you choose will dictate what delivery charges, taxes and duties apply (if any). Please refer to our Delivery section for further details on delivery options.
Although we make every effort to ensure prices displayed on our Platform and in our communications are correct, errors may occur. If an error occurs and your Order:
- has already been processed, then we may at our discretion:
- cancel the Order (or part thereof), arrange for collection of the mid-priced item(s) from your original Order delivery address in the UAE and issue you a full refund including original Order delivery fees, taxes, cash handling fees and duties (if applicable);
- where the price you paid is lower than the actual price of the item, honour the price in your Order; or
- where the price you paid is higher than the actual price of the item, refund you the difference;
- has not yet been processed, then we will notify you as soon as possible and only process the Order (or part thereof) once you have confirmed you are happy to buy at the correct price or otherwise cancel the Order (or part thereof) and refund your payment in full.
