2.2 When the Customer has completed its order, the Customer will receive an order confirmation to the e-mail address specified in the order. The confirmation contains all information about the order – product information, price, invoicing, and delivery address. If something is wrong with the order confirmation, the Customer must contact us as soon as possible via e-mail at contact@royalpetportraits.com.

The Customer’s responsibility is to ensure no errors in the specified postal address, e-mail, or mobile number. E-mail and mobile numbers are used to send the Customer’s package and to track it.

2.3 To purchase via the Website, the Customer must accept the Terms. When the Customer agrees with the Terms, the Customer undertakes to comply with them fully and accepts third-party terms. Furthermore, the Customer agrees and confirms that he has read the information about personal data and approved the use of cookies.

By the Customer approving the Terms at the same time as he places an order, a binding agreement arises between Royal Pet Portrait and the Customer. In connection with the Customer placing an order, the Customer also accepts that he will be liable for payment corresponding to the total amount of the order.

2.4 When an order is received, an order confirmation is automatically sent by e-mail to the Customer’s registered e-mail address. In step one, the Customer gets a preliminary confirmation. When the package/product is packed and ready to be delivered, the Customer receives its final order confirmation (finished Product when purchasing a digital portrait) in step two. This order confirmation also serves as a guarantee certificate after full payment has been made. Royal Pet portraits reserve the right to take no responsibility for deviation in delivery when something was wrong at the time of order.

The Customer can place its order on the Website around the clock. The designer typically starts working on it the next day. After the Customer has placed an order, it’s not possible to change the Product if the process has already begun. We reserve the right to deny changes to products.

2.5 Royal Pet Portraits uses the exact photo uploaded in connection with the Customer’s order when creating the Product. We try our best to take order quotations into account but cannot guarantee that we do. We can easily remove red-eye, but we can not, for example, open your pet’s mouth if it is closed in the photo.

If a photo that does not follow our guidelines is sent in together with an order, we can not guarantee that the result will be as you expect. We can not offer compensation of any kind in this situation, but the responsibility lies with the Customer. Of the photos is sent to us in connection with orders, we always work with the image that we believe will be best if the Customer does not state specific wishes in their order notes. We reserve the right to use another photo if we consider it better to get the best possible end product.

Note that all examples on the Website are with high-quality photos. It is the Customer’s responsibility to ensure that the image submitted meets our guidelines. Our designers will do their best to produce an end product of the highest quality possible if it does not. We try our best to go through the photos sent in together with orders but reserve ourselves for not having the opportunity to do so.

We reserve the right to work with the submitted photo regardless of quality and do not guarantee that the result will be good if the image is not. We offer no compensation in this case. The Customer can read more in our photo guidelines.

If we contact the Customer and request a new photo, it may mean an extended delivery time while we wait for a response from the Customer. The ample delivery time is not something that Royal Pet Portals should be responsible for, but it is up to the Customer to respond as soon as possible. We wait for a reply 48 hours; after that, we reserve the right to continue working with what we got.

We reserve the right to use the portrait we create with your submitted photo for marketing purposes or in other contexts like our Website or digital channels.

2.1.1 Preview

2.1.2 Preview means that the Customer gets a chance to make changes and provide feedback on their finished portrait before it we send it to print. A preview is an option that is made in connection with the Customer placing their order. If you want to add a preview afterward, you should contact us within 6 hours of placing an order.

Royal Pet Portraits reserves the right to proceed with the order if the Customer does not return within 48 hours of sending the preview to the Customer’s specified e-mail address.

2.1.3 Restrictions – The Customer only receives one preview, and in it, the Customer can change small things such as that there is too little / too much fur or too little / too much whiskers.

Things that we can not change are, for example, that the Customer wants us to open the animal’s mouth, which in the original photo is closed, or that the Customer asks us to change animals in the portrait. Neither is it possible to change the suit/picture of the animal as the work has already been completed. We reserve the right to refuse changes at any time without cause. If the Customer still wants to change the suit or photo of the pet, EUR 9 will be added to the original price.

A preview does not mean that you have the right to cancel or cancel your purchase.

 

3. DELIVERY

Delivery takes place via post/package and is usually delivered by the postal parcel to the Customer’s nearest delivery point. In the event of any delays or other things that we have not caused, we take total distance from responsibility. 

In the event of any problems, we ask the Customer to primarily, if possible, track their package. We work with 30+ shipping providers around the world. The shipping provider used depends on several factors including the country of production, the country of delivery, the shipping method selected, and more. A list of our distribution partners can be found below.

The package will be available for pick-up for 10-21 days before getting returned to us (see more specifically for your country on one of our shipping providers). 

If the Customer does not pick up their package within the stated time, they will be charged EUR 9. The charge corresponds to the costs that have caused Royal Pet Portrait to send out the Product and receive it in return. There is also a cost of EUR 9 for the new shipping if the Customer wishes to obtain their portrait.

If the Customer has entered a postal address that the courier considers insufficient or incorrect, the shipment will get sent back to the warehouse. You will thus be liable for re-transport as soon as we have confirmed an updated address by you.

Delivery takes place via the specified e-mail address. If the Customer has entered an e-mail address that is considered insufficient or incorrect by us (i.e., that does not work), the e-mail will be sent back to us in the form of an error message. We will then try to get hold of the Customer in another way. If the Customer notices or remembers that he has accidentally entered the wrong information, it is of the utmost importance that the Customer contacts us as soon as possible.

It is the Customer’s responsibility to enter the correct information when placing its order so that the Customer can receive, among other things, a confirmation e-mail and get a notification when the Product is ready for pick-up.
