3. OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU
3.1 Please note, you will receive an acknowledgement of your order at the point of submission. Our acceptance of your order will take place when we email you to accept it, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us.
3.2 If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this in writing and will not charge you for the product. This might be because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified. We will not be liable to you for any loss arising as a result of us being unable to accept your order.
3.3 We will assign an order reference number to your order and tell you what it is when we accept your order. It will help us if you can tell us the order reference number whenever you contact us about your order.

4.2 The packaging of the product may vary from that shown in images on our website.
5. YOUR RIGHTS TO MAKE CHANGES
5.1 If you wish to make a change to the product you have ordered please contact us. We will let you know if the change is possible. If it is possible we will let you know about any changes to the price of the product, the timing of supply or anything else which would be necessary as a result of your requested change and ask you to confirm whether you wish to go ahead with the change.
6. OUR RIGHTS TO MAKE CHANGES
6.1 We may change the product:
6.1.1 to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; and
6.1.2 to implement minor technical adjustments and improvements, for example to improve the recipe.
6.2 In addition, as we informed you in the description of the product on our website, we may make the following changes to these terms or the product, but if we do so we will notify you and you may then contact us to end the contract before the changes take effect and receive a refund for any products paid for but not received:
6.2.1 changes to the price of the products;
6.2.2 changes to the cost of delivery; and

7.3 If our supply of the products is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any products you have paid for but not received.
7.4 A product which is goods will be your responsibility from the time we deliver the product to the address you gave us.
7.5 You own a product which is goods once we have delivered them to you.
7.6 We may need certain information from you so that we can supply the products to you, for example, your name, address and contact telephone number. If so, this will have been stated on our website. If you do not give us this information within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we may either end the contract (and clause 10.2 will apply) or make an additional charge of a reasonable sum to compensate us for any extra work that is required as a result. We will not be responsible for supplying the products late or not supplying any part of them if this is caused by you not giving us the information we need within a reasonable time of us asking for it.
7.7 We may have to suspend the supply of a product to:
7.7.1 deal with manufacturing problems or make minor changes;
7.7.2 update the product to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements;
7.7.3 make changes to the product as requested by you or notified by us to you (see clause 6).
7.8 We will contact you in advance to tell you we will be suspending supply of the product, unless the problem is urgent or an emergency. If we have to suspend the product we will adjust the price so that you do not pay for products while they are suspended. You may contact us to end the contract for a product if we suspend it, or tell you we are going to suspend it, in each case for a period of more than one month and we will refund any sums you have paid in advance for the product in respect of the period after you end the contract.
7.9 If you do not pay us for the products when you are supposed to (see clause 13.4) we may suspend supply of the products until you have paid us the outstanding amounts. We will contact you to tell you we are suspending supply of the products. We will not charge you for the products during the period for which they are suspended.
8. YOUR RIGHTS TO END THE CONTRACT
8.1 Your rights when you end the contract will depend on what you have bought, whether there is anything wrong with it, how we are performing, when you decide to end the contract:
8.1.1 If what you have bought is faulty or misdescribed you may have a legal right to end the contract (or to get the product repaired or replaced or to get some or all of your money back), see clause 12;
8.1.2 If you want to end the contract because of something we have done or have told you we are going to do, see clause 8.2;

8.2 If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at clauses 8.2.1 to 8.2.5 below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:
8.2.1 we have told you about an upcoming change to the product or these terms which you do not agree to (see clause 6.2);
8.2.2 we have told you about an error in the price or description of the product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
8.2.3 there is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;
8.2.4 we have suspended supply of the products for technical reasons, or notify you we are going to suspend them for technical reasons, in each case for a period of more than one month; or
8.2.5 you have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong.
8.3 Provided the contract has not been completed, you can still end the contract even if we are not at fault. The contract will end immediately and we will refund any sums paid by you for products not provided.
8.4 Once we have provided the products there is no right to change your mind or receive goods on a sale-or-return basis and it will be your responsibility to sell or use the products before any “use by” or “best before” dates or any date on which the product is considered to have reached the end of its life.

9.2 We will pay the costs of return:
9.2.1 if the products are faulty or misdescribed; or

12. YOUR RIGHTS IN RESPECT OF DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS
12.1 We warrant that on delivery any products which are goods shall:
12.1.1 conform with their description;
12.1.2 be free from material defects in design, material and workmanship;
12.1.3 be of satisfactory quality (within the meaning of the Sale of Goods Act 1979); and

12.2.1 you give us notice in writing within three days of the date of delivery that a product does not comply with the warranty set out in clause 12.1;
12.2.2 we are given a reasonable opportunity of examining such product; and
12.2.3 you return such product to us at our cost, we shall, at our option, repair or replace the defective product, or refund the price of the defective product in full.
12.3 We will not be liable for a product’s failure to comply with the warranty in clause 12.1 if:
12.3.1 you make any further use of such product after giving a notice in accordance with clause 12.2.1;
12.3.2 the defect arises because you failed to follow our oral or written instructions as to the storage, installation, commissioning, use or maintenance of the product or (if there are none) good trade practice;
12.3.3 you alter or repair the product without our written consent; or

12.4 Except as provided in this clause 12, we shall have no liability to you in respect of a product’s failure to comply with the warranty set out in clause 12.1.
12.5 These terms shall apply to any repaired or replacement products supplied by us under clause 12.2.
13. PRICE AND PAYMENT
13.1 The price of the product (which excludes VAT unless otherwise stated) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However please see clause 13.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.
13.2 If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
13.3 It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product’s correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product’s correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.
13.4 We accept payment with all major credit cards except American Express
13.5 Unless you are in receipt of credit terms from us, you must pay for the products before we dispatch them. We will not charge your credit or debit card until we dispatch the products to you. To apply for a credit account please call us on +44 1342 710420 or email trade@we.pet
13.6 You must pay all amounts due to us under these terms in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law).
14. OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY YOU
14.1 Nothing in these terms shall limit or exclude our liability for:

14.1.2 fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation;
14.1.3 breach of the terms implied by section 12 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 or section 2 of the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982;
14.1.4 defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987; or
14.1.5 any matter in respect of which it would be unlawful for us to exclude or restrict liability.
14.2 Except to the extent expressly stated in clause 12.1 all terms implied by sections 12 to 14 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 and sections 3 to 5 of the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982 are excluded.

15. HOW WE MAY USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
15.1 We will only use your personal information as set out in our privacy policy at https://we.pet/privacy.html.
15.2 We may also collect personal information in relation to you from third parties for the purpose of fraud prevention.
16. OTHER IMPORTANT TERMS
16.1 We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation. We will always tell you in writing if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the contract.
16.2 You need our consent to transfer your rights to someone else (except that you can always transfer our guarantee). You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these terms to another person if we agree to this in writing. We may require the person to whom the guarantee is transferred to provide reasonable evidence that they are now the owner of the relevant item or property.
16.3 Nobody else has any rights under this contract (except someone you pass your guarantee on to). This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
16.4 If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
16.5 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
16.6 Any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with a contract between us or its subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of England and Wales and the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any such dispute or claim.
