The website is provided by us without any warranties or guarantees. You must bear the risks associated with the use of the Internet.

We will not be responsible for any errors or omissions or for the results obtained from the use of such information or for any technical problems you may experience with the website.

13. Products on the website
We do our best to ensure that on the Website we show our cards, wrapping paper, banners and gifts accurately. However, there may be slight variations in the colour, typeface or layout.
13.1 Placing your order
A contract for the purchase of a product is created as follows:
- The user places the order on the site by pressing an order confirmation button ("Checkout) at the end of the checkout process: if the product in question includes content selected by the User it is a "personalised product"
- By confirming your order, you are agreeing to purchase the product you have selected.
- At this point, we take payment for your order by means of your nominated payment method
- We will send to you a "Thank you for your order" email detailing your order, and other information we must provide to you
There are limited circumstances in which you may cancel an order after it has been made.
Note that we may bar or prevent an individual Account, User, email address or other identifier from making purchases or otherwise interacting with us where we reasonably suspect an association with fraud or other infringements of the law
13.2 Personalising products
Dom and Geri aims to provide you with a fast, high-quality service. Please double-check your order on screen and your acknowledgement email carefully to check that everything with regards to your order are correct. It is up to you to ensure that content you have contributed for inclusion in a personalised product is correct, and (for example) is correctly spelt. As a courtesy, we may allow you to make changes to your order.
If you are uploading a photo, images must be in JPEG format. Any other format such as Word documents and PDFs cannot be accepted. For best results, we advise that you make the image dimensions approximately 1,000 pixels for the smallest edge of your photos. We print images at 300DPI (Dots Per Inch), so if you are scanning the image we recommend you use this setting. If you try to upload a photo that has a lower resolution or image size, we will accept it. However, an on screen warning will generally appear to let you know that the image may not appear very well on the selected personalised product.
By uploading, posting, contributing or including any content or material in a personalised product, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable licence (including the right to grant sub-licences through multiple tiers) to use, reproduce, adapt, distribute and communicate to the public that content or material solely for the purpose of performing obligations and exercising rights under these Terms.
14. Changing or cancelling an order
It is best to call us if you need to cancel or change your order - please phone our help line on 01943 618008 or email info@domandgeri.com. Please have your order number or the email address you registered with us available so we can answer your query as quickly as possible.
Emails are answered during business hours (9am - 5pm) in the order they are received. It is therefore possible that your order could begin production before your email is processed and we will be unable to make any changes.
15. Returns and refunds
At DomandGeri.com, we always try to send your products in perfect condition. However, occasionally, a problem can arise. In the unlikely event that a product is faulty, or it is damaged in delivery or is the wrong item, we ask you to contact us to let us know of the problem as soon as possible. We will then advise you on whether you are eligible for a refund or replacement.
15.1. Reporting a problem
If for any reason you are not happy with your order, please contact our Customer Service Team. Call 01943 618008 or email info@domandgeri.com. You will need to quote your order number, your email address you have registered with and have the address and details on the problem with your order.
We aim to acknowledge any complaint within 14 working days, (usually it takes 1-2 days) and will do our best to resolve it within 28 days. We may ask you to take a photograph of the product to help us correct any future problems. Should it be necessary, we will then advise you how to return your item.
15.2. Returning products and issuing refunds
Where an item is faulty, we will ask you to return it to us within three days of receipt.
Your right to return items to us in accordance with these terms and conditions is in addition to any other statutory rights you may have.
If you are eligible for a refund, we will reimburse the price you have paid for the product(s) onto the credit or debit card that you paid with. Alternatively, we may offer to reprint (if applicable) and resend the item free of charge. Please note it is not our policy to offer both a refund and a resend.
Refunds cannot be given if the fault is a result of your own actions such as product misuse or if personalisation is mis-spelt or if you have uploaded an image of a low resolution or size.
Multiple refund requests
If there are persistent claims for refunds from the same individual or group of individuals, we reserve the right not to issue a refund or replace an order. We may refuse to take any future orders from any such customers and will inform them of our decision in writing, via email or over the telephone.
16. Your privacy and security
We do not store credit card details nor do we share customer details with any third parties. DomandGeri.com is committed to protecting your privacy. We promise to use the information that we collect about you in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.
17. Delivery
During the order process, Dom and Geri will generally notify you of the despatch dates available and the expected timeframe for receiving your order; however, Dom and Geri does not guarantee delivery dates or times. We will make you aware of delivery charges (if any) before you place your order.
Expected delivery times and charges will differ depending on which products you order. See Delivery for more information.
17.1. General despatch information
The despatch date is the day we SEND the item you have ordered, NOT the day it will be delivered.
- Your order is likely to arrive much faster if you use a postcode
- You can check that you have the correct postcode by using the Royal Mail's handy postcode finder available at www.royalmail.com/find-a-postcode. To state the obvious, we are not responsible for the accuracy of the Royal Mail's postcode finder
- It is your responsibility to ensure that the delivery address you provide for any order you place is correct
17.2. Circumstances Beyond Our Control
Neither we, nor any delivery service that we use, shall be liable for any failure to perform Services where such failure or delay results from any circumstances outside our reasonable control; these circumstances include but are not limited to adverse weather conditions (such as snow, flood and extreme winds), fire, explosion, accident, traffic congestion, obstruction of any private or public highway, riot, terrorism, act of God, or industrial dispute or strike.
