If you place an order via our Website (or where we have otherwise stated that we will), we will send you an email acknowledging receipt of your order, together with your order number and details of the Product(s) you have ordered.

3.5 Our agreement is formed when we accept your order (or offer to make a purchase). The processing of your payment and acknowledgment of receipt of your order (whether by email, telephone, or otherwise) does not constitute legal acceptance of your order.
3.6 If we accept your order, we have a legal duty to supply our Products in conformity with our agreement.
4. Buying from us
4.1 You must be 18 or over to purchase Products from us via our Website. If you are underage please do not attempt to order or purchase these Products. By ordering and/or purchasing Products you agree that you satisfy the legal age requirements for those Products. We reserve the right not to supply any age-restricted Products where we reasonably believe that you are below the relevant legal age for those Products.
4.2 We will take reasonable steps to display as accurately as possible the colors, appearance, and other detailing of our Products (and their packaging) in the images that appear on the Website and in our catalogs and other media. However, we do not guarantee that the images, appearance, and other detailing that appear on the Website and in our catalogs and other media will exactly reflect the color, appearance, or detailing of the physical Product (or its packaging). Your Products (and their packaging) may vary slightly from those images.
4.3 Any information on the Website and in our catalogs and other media regarding sizing, weights, capacities, specifications, dimensions, and measurements of Products is included as a guide only. If you are concerned about the precise size, weight, capacity, specifications, dimensions, or measurements of any Product you require, we recommend that you contact us prior to placing an order and/or purchasing a Product.
4.4 If your order includes Products that are made according to the measurements you provide us, please ensure these measurements are correct and accurate as your right of return as set out in clause 8 below will not be available unless the Products are faulty or incorrectly delivered.
4.5 Where we agree to provide a specifically designed plan as part of or in connection with your order, you will be responsible for checking the accuracy and suitability of the plan and ensuring it meets your requirements before placing an order. Any such plan is, and remains our property and may not be reproduced in whole or in part without our prior written consent. Any such plan may only be used by you in connection with a quotation or order for Products and/or services from us and/or the provision of Products and/or services by us to you. You are responsible for checking that the details of the plan, and any resulting quotation, are complete, accurate, and meet your requirements before committing yourself to an order.
5. Price, delivery charges, and availability
5.1 Unless otherwise stated, prices for Products are inclusive of applicable sales tax (including VAT). Sales tax will be applied and will be shown on your invoice at the current applicable rate. Sales tax amounts stated may be subject to rounding variances. The exact amount of sales tax will be shown on the sales tax invoice (where provided). This will not affect the total price inclusive of sales tax.
5.2 Prices for Products exclude delivery charges unless expressly stated otherwise. Delivery charges vary depending on the Product(s) you order, the delivery address, and the delivery method you select; please see our Delivery Terms for further details. When you place an order via our Website, delivery charges are calculated automatically in your shopping basket depending on your choices and added to your order.
5.3 We may update prices at any time. Despite our best efforts, a small number of the products we sell may occasionally be mispriced. If this happens then we will not be obliged to supply the Products at the incorrect price or at all. We will (at our discretion) either cancel your order and refund the price you have paid or endeavor to contact you and ask you whether you wish to continue with the order at the correct price. If we are unable to contact you or you do not wish to continue with the order at the correct price, we will cancel your order and refund the price you have paid.
5.4 From time to time we may apply promotional prices to Products, including Website or in-store-only prices. These promotional prices will only apply in the context in which the promotion is given and are subject to the terms of that promotion. For example, Website only prices will not be applicable to in-store orders or purchases, and in-store-only prices will not be applicable to Website orders or purchases. To take advantage of promotional prices, you must quote the relevant promotion code when you order (where applicable). We may update promotions at any time.
5.5 Where we provide a quote to you it will be subject to the terms and conditions applicable to that quote.
5.6 All Products are subject to availability. If you order Products that are not available from stock, we will take reasonable steps to contact you to discuss how you wish to proceed. You will have the option to wait until the Products are available from stock, or cancel your order. If the Products are unlikely to be restocked (or we are unable to contact you), we will cancel your order for those Products and refund the price you have paid for those Products.
6. Payment
6.1 The total cost of your order and/or purchases is the price of the Products and applicable delivery charges.
6.2 We must receive payment in advance before your order and/or purchase can be processed unless we have agreed otherwise in advance in writing.
6.3 Payment can be made by most major credit or debit cards, and by other online payment methods (including PayPal Apple Pay, and Google Pay) in accordance with the payment methods section of our Website (see “How can I pay when I shop on fodha.co.uk?”).
6.4 If you use a credit/debit card to pay for your order, you must use your credit/debit card or a credit/debit card that you are otherwise authorized to use. All credit/debit card holders are subject to validation checks by third parties and authorization by the card issuer. If the issuer of the card refuses to authorize payment or any other validation checks return adverse results, we will not accept your order and we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery we are not obliged to inform you of the reason for the refusal. If you use PayPal to pay for your order and the issuer of the card or the payment provider that operates the account that you use to fund or which is linked with your PayPal account refuses to authorize payment, we reserve the right to reject your order and will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery and we are not obliged to inform you of the reason for the rejection.
6.5 We are not responsible for the card issuer or bank charging the cardholder as a result of our processing of the credit/debit card payment in accordance with your order.
6.6 You are responsible for all orders placed by your authorized employees.
7. Getting your Products
7.1 If you order Products for delivery then the terms that apply to that delivery will depend upon the Product(s) that you order, the delivery address, and the delivery method you select. Unless we specifically agree otherwise, we only deliver to the areas indicated in our Delivery Terms. Depending on your location, some Products may only be available in-store and some Products may not be available to purchase on our Website.
7.2 You can see a full set of our Delivery Terms on the Website.
7.3 Subject to availability and our Delivery Terms, where we have agreed to deliver the Products, we will use reasonable endeavors to do so on any specified date we agree, or if no date is specified, within 30 days of the date of your order. In the case of circumstances beyond our reasonable control (for example, adverse weather conditions, unpredictable delays caused by traffic congestion, road works, diversions, or mechanical breakdowns, in each case to the extent beyond our reasonable control) we may not be able to deliver the Products within these timescales and we will not be liable for any delay or failure to deliver the Products if the delay or failure is wholly or partly caused by such circumstances. In the event that a delivery does not take place, we and you will agree on an alternative delivery date.
7.4 You must also do all that you reasonably can to enable the delivery to take place on the given date. If we are unable to deliver the Products as a result of your action or inaction (for example, you are not present at your property), we will need to arrange an alternative delivery date and we reserve the right to charge you a further fee for this.
7.5 For reasons of health and safety and to avoid any property damage, certain Products can only be delivered to the exterior of a ground floor location at the delivery address. You must therefore make your own arrangements at your own risk if the relevant Products need to be transported from the delivery location. We will not provide any unpacking, installation, fitting, or waste removal services unless otherwise agreed by us.
7.6 Unless we have agreed otherwise, Products must be signed for on delivery by a person aged 18 or over. Delivery will be completed when we deliver the Products to the address you specified in your order.
7.7 If you do not receive your Products on the stated delivery date, you must notify us immediately. We recommend that you do not schedule or commence any installation work until after you have received your ordered Products and checked all of them for any defects or missing parts.
7.8 Each Product remains our property until you have paid for it in full or we have provided the Product to you (whichever occurs later), whereupon you will own the Product. On delivery of the Products to you or collection of the Products by you (as the case may be), the Products shall be at your risk and responsibility and you will be responsible for their safekeeping and we will not be responsible for any damage or fault arising from incorrect storage.
7.9 Until ownership of the Products passes from us to you, you shall hold the Products on our behalf and shall store the Products at your own cost separately from all other products in your possession and marked in such a way that they are clearly identified as our property. We may, before ownership of the Products passes to you, require you to deliver the Products to us and, if you fail to do so, may repossess the Products. You grant us an irrevocable license to enter, with or without vehicles, any of your premises for the purpose of inspecting or repossessing the Products.
8. Cancellation and returns
8.1 Please keep your proof of purchase for anything you buy from us. Although you are not obliged to, doing so will ensure we can help you if you need to bring something back.
8.2 You may cancel your order (or any part of it) and return your Products for any reason before dispatch (where applicable) or within 14 days after the date of delivery or collection (as the case may be) by:
8.2.1 calling us on 0736 8636 769 (or 01 524 0024 if you are calling from the Republic of Ireland) (lines are open 8am to 8pm weekdays), emailing us at info@fodha.co.uk, or writing to us at 15 Northfields Prospect, London, SW18 1PE, United Kingdom to cancel the order (or part of it) and arrange return; or
8.2.2 returning the Product to the Fodha UK store (please bring your proof of purchase and, where applicable, the credit/debit card used for payment).
Where your order comprises multiple delivery shipments, the 14-day cancellation period for the Products in your order runs from the date of the delivery of the last shipment to you.
8.3 You will lose your right to cancel after the expiry of the 14-day period referred to in clause 8.2 (this does not affect your rights if there is any problem with the Products).
8.4 You may use the cancellation form at the end of these Terms, but you do not have to.
8.5 To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.
8.6 The right to cancel your order set out above is subject to the following exclusions:
8.6.1 Products that are cut, made to measure, or mixed to your requirements, or otherwise customized or made to your specifications will not be exchanged or refunded unless they are faulty or incorrectly delivered;
8.6.2 your right of cancellation does not apply to Products that are not suitable for return due to health or hygiene reasons if you have opened the Product packaging after delivery or collection; and
8.6.3 your right of cancellation does not apply to Products that become mixed inseparably with other items after delivery or collection (which may be the case where the Products are installed).
8.7 In relation to Products delivered to you, you may need to take delivery of the Products before you can cancel your order if the Products are placed into our delivery process before we receive your notice of cancellation. This does not affect your rights under this clause and clause 9.
8.8 Following cancellation, we will refund you the price paid for the canceled order (or part of the order canceled), less any collection or return costs or charges (if any). Where you cancel the entire order, we will also refund the standard delivery charges paid (if any), or an amount equal to those charges if you elect to use a more expensive delivery method. Where you cancel part of an order, we may recalculate any applicable delivery charge and deduct this from the refund. We will pay the refund within 14 days after the day:
8.8.1 you notified us to cancel your order, where you have not received the Products (and the Products have not been despatched to you); or
8.8.2 we receive the Products you returned to us, where you are in receipt of the Products; or
8.8.3 you provide us with proof of return for the Products, where you have returned the Products but we have not yet received them.

If you paid for your order using an online payment service (such as PayPal, Apple Pay, or Google Pay), we will refund you on the account or using the online payment method you used to pay for the order, unless we agree otherwise with you.
8.10 You must arrange for the return of the Product(s) as soon as possible and in any event not later than 14 days after the day on which you cancel your order, unless we agree that you may dispose of the Products (in which case you must comply with any disposal instructions).

Where you are in possession of the Products (or they have been dispatched to you), we may withhold any refund until we have received the Products or you have supplied proof of return for the Products.
