How we may contact you. If we have to contact you we will do so by writing to you at the email address or postal address you provided to us in your order.

”Writing” includes emails. When we use the words “writing” or “written” in these terms, this includes emails.

What these terms cover. These are the terms and conditions on which we offer, sell and supply any of our goods (Products) to you from our website at gaelicbooks.org (the “Website”).

Agreement to these terms. When we accept your order you shall be deemed to accept these terms and conditions (the “Agreement”) and that you are entering into this Agreement.

Why you should read them. Please read these terms carefully before you complete your Order. These terms tell you who we are, how we provide goods to you, how we may change the Agreement, what to do if there is a problem and other important information.

How we will accept your request to purchase from our website (the “Order”). 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.

If we cannot accept your Order. 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, or for other reasons beyond our control.

Your order number. We will assign an order 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 number whenever you contact us about your Order.

Delivery costs. The costs of delivery are as displayed to you on the Website.

We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If our supply of the Order 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. We shall not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay (of more than 30 days) you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any products you have paid for but not received.

Orders to EU countries now attract import charges. These are usually VAT applied by the government of the recipient country. If you wish to proceed with a purchase from our online shop, please be aware that you will be personally liable for these charges.

Products may vary slightly from their pictures. The images of the products on the Website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device’s display of the colours accurately reflects the colour of the products. Your product may vary slightly from those images.

You agree not to share them with anyone else – you are responsible for anything that happens in your account. We won’t check the identities of people using your profile and we will not be responsible for damage or harm suffered by you if your Log-in Details are used by someone else unless this is due to our negligence. You agree to notify us immediately if you become aware of or suspect any unauthorised use of your Log-In Details.
