Terms of service
OVERVIEW Welcome to Horomatik. The terms "we", "us" and "our" refer to Horomatik. Horomatik operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products and services in order to provide you, the customer, with a curated shopping experience (the "Services"). Horomatik is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you. The below terms and conditions, together with any policies referenced herein (these "Terms of Service" or "Terms") describe your rights and responsibilities when you use the Services. Please read these Terms of Service carefully, as they include important information about your legal rights and cover areas such as warranty disclaimers and limitations of liability. By visiting, interacting with or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy [LINK]. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service or Privacy Policy, you should not use or access our Services.
SECTION 1 - ACCESS AND ACCOUNT By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and capable of entering into a legally binding contract. If you are under 18, you may use the Services only with the involvement and consent of a parent or guardian. To use the Services, including accessing or browsing our online stores or purchasing any of the products or services we offer, you may be asked to provide certain information, such as your email address, billing, payment, and shipping information. You represent and warrant that all the information you provide in our stores is correct, current and complete and that you have all rights necessary to provide this information. You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all of your account activity. You may not transfer, sell, assign, or license your account to any other person.
SECTION 2 - OUR PRODUCTS We aim to describe our products accurately and to use photographs that fairly represent them. Colours and appearance may vary on your screen because of your device, its settings and display configuration. Many watches and horological objects offered by Horomatik are vintage or pre-owned. Signs of age, wear, repair, alteration or other condition characteristics may be present. Material details known to us are set out in the relevant product description and photographs; please review them carefully before placing an order. Nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights. In particular, goods must be as described, of satisfactory quality and fit for purpose, taking account of their age, condition, price and description. All descriptions of products are subject to change at any time without notice at our sole discretion. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time and may limit the quantities of any products that we offer to any person, geographic region or jurisdiction, on a case-by-case basis.
SECTION 3 - ORDERS When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase. Horomatik reserves the right to accept or decline your order for any reason at its discretion. Your order is not accepted until Horomatik confirms acceptance. We must receive and process your payment before your order is accepted. Please review your order carefully before submitting, as Horomatik may be unable to accommodate cancellation requests after an order is accepted. In the event that we do not accept, make a change to, or cancel an order, we will attempt to notify you by contacting the e‑mail, billing address, and/or phone number provided at the time the order was made. Your right to return or cancel an order is set out in our Refund Policy [LINK] and in your statutory rights. If you are a UK consumer buying online, you will normally have 14 days from the day after delivery to tell us that you wish to cancel, subject to the exceptions set out by law. You represent and warrant that your purchases are for your own personal or household use and not for commercial resale or export.
SECTION 4 - PRICES AND BILLING Prices, discounts and promotions are subject to change before an order is accepted. The price charged for a product or service will be the price in effect when you place your order and will be set out in your order confirmation email. Prices are shown in pounds sterling unless otherwise stated and include VAT where applicable. Delivery charges and any other compulsory charges will be shown before you place an order. If we offer delivery outside the UK, customs duties or import taxes may apply and will be your responsibility where this has been made clear before you place your order.
Prices posted in our online stores may be different from prices offered in physical stores or in online or other stores operated by third parties. We may offer, from time to time, promotions on the Services that may affect pricing and that are governed by terms and conditions separate from these Terms. If there is a conflict between the terms for a promotion and these Terms, the promotion terms will govern. You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase, payment and account information for all purchases made at our stores. You agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address, credit card numbers and expiration dates, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed. You represent and warrant that (i) the credit card information you provide is true, correct, and complete, (ii) you are duly authorized to use such credit card for the purchase, (iii) charges incurred by you will be honored by your credit card company, and (iv) you will pay charges incurred by you at the posted prices, including shipping and handling charges and all applicable taxes, if any.
SECTION 5 - SHIPPING AND DELIVERY We will take reasonable care to deliver goods within the time stated at checkout. Delivery times are estimates unless we have expressly agreed otherwise. If no delivery date is agreed, we will deliver without undue delay and no later than 30 days after we accept your order, unless a different period is agreed with you. We are not responsible for delays caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including carrier or customs delays, but this does not affect your statutory rights. Goods remain at our risk until they come into the physical possession of you, or a person identified by you to take possession of them. This does not apply where you arrange your own carrier and we did not offer that carrier as an option.
SECTION 6 - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY Our Services, including but not limited to all trademarks, brands, text, displays, images, graphics, product reviews, video, and audio, and the design, selection, and arrangement thereof, are owned by Horomatik, its affiliates or licensors and are protected by UK and international copyright, trade mark and other intellectual property laws.

You must not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, republish, download, store, or transmit any of the material on the Services without our prior written consent. Except as expressly provided herein, nothing in these Terms grants or shall be construed as granting a licence or other rights to you under any patent, trade mark, copyright, or other intellectual property of Horomatik, Shopify or any third party. Unauthorised use of the Services may breach applicable intellectual property laws. All rights not expressly granted herein are reserved by Horomatik.

SECTION 7 - OPTIONAL TOOLS You may be provided with access to customer tools offered by third parties as part of the Services, which we neither monitor nor have any control nor input. You acknowledge and agree that we provide access to such tools "as is" and "as available" without any warranties, representations or conditions of any kind and without any endorsement. We shall have no liability whatsoever arising from or relating to your use of optional third-party tools.

We may also, in the future, offer new features through the Services (including the release of new tools and resources). Such new features shall also be deemed part of the Services and are subject to these Terms of Service.
SECTION 8 - THIRD-PARTY LINKS The Services may contain materials and hyperlinks to websites provided or operated by third parties (including any embedded third party functionality).
