6. Terms and Conditions of Sale
When you purchase products from us using these Sites, your purchase is subject to separate policies set forth in this Section. Certain additional terms and conditions may apply to purchases of products and other uses of portions of these Sites.
Restrictions. You may only purchase or order products for personal, non-commercial and legal purposes. No other uses are permitted. Product(s) purchased on these Sites will not be delivered to an address outside of Canada.
Order. Before submitting an order for the purchase of products using these Sites, you will be shown an order confirmation screen (the “Order Confirmation”) describing, among other things, the product(s) to be ordered, the purchase price and any applicable charges for shipping and taxes. When you submit your order (by pressing the “Submit Order” button), such order will constitute an offer from you to Aldo to purchase the product(s) described in the Order Confirmation, for the price and subject to the other charges, terms and conditions set out in the Order Confirmation. Orders are not binding on Aldo until accepted by Aldo. Aldo’s acceptance of your order is evidenced by return e-mail from Aldo indicating that your order has been accepted.
Cancellation. Aldo reserves the right, in its discretion, to limit quantities, terminate accounts and to refuse or cancel any order, including after the order has been submitted, whether the order has been confirmed and your credit card charged. If your order is cancelled by Aldo after your payment has been processed, Aldo will issue a full refund.
Price. All prices quoted are payable in Canadian Dollars. Although Aldo strives to provide accurate product and pricing information, errors may occur. Aldo reserves the right to correct any errors in pricing or product information and to modify the prices of products, at any time, without prior notice. Aldo cannot confirm the price of a Product until after you submit an order for the product. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the price or related information for a product (as described on the Sites and/or the Order Confirmation) is incorrect due to an error in pricing or product information, Aldo may, at its sole discretion, refuse or cancel your order, whether before or after Aldo’s acceptance thereof. If there is such an error in pricing, Aldo will cancel your order and reverse any charges that have been applied, then contact you to ask you to place a new order for the product at the correct price.
Payment. Any payments made by credit card are subject to the approval of the financial institution that has issued the credit card.
Product availability. The availability of certain products may be limited, and products may not be available for immediate delivery. Aldo may revise or cease to make available any products at any time without prior notice. In the event that Aldo is unable to deliver you a Product ordered due to lack of availability, Aldo will notify you via e-mail and your order will be automatically cancelled with respect to such unavailable product, provided that Aldo may, in its sole discretion, contact you in order to allow you to maintain your order subject to a revised delivery time if and when the product becomes available.
Shipping; Taxes. Aldo will arrange for the shipping of the product(s) ordered by you according to the delivery method you have chosen and to the address indicated in the Order Confirmation. Delivery times provided by Aldo are estimates only. Unless otherwise stated, all prices quoted do not include shipping and handling charges and, where applicable, federal and state sales taxes. The applicable taxes and shipping charges will be shown separately on the Order Confirmation. You are responsible for all sales, use, goods and services, harmonized sales, and other taxes and duties associated with the order. Tax charges are calculated based on the shipping and/or delivery address associated with your order. Where required, sales tax will also be applied to the shipping and handling charges. If you return an item for a refund, you will also receive a refund for the sales taxes you paid for the Product. You will not, however, receive a refund for the sales taxes you paid on the shipping and handling of the item, as the shipping and handling charges are non-refundable once an item has been shipped.
Ownership; Risk of Loss. All products purchased from Aldo are delivered to you by a third-party delivery company, pursuant to a shipping contract. The risk of loss and title for each item purchased by you, pass to you upon our delivery of the item to the delivery company. Since the actual delivery of your order can be impacted by many events beyond our control once it leaves our facilities, Aldo cannot be held liable for late deliveries. Aldo will, however, work with you to ensure smooth delivery. For returns, we do not take title to any such product(s) until it arrives at our distribution center. At our discretion, a refund may be issued without requiring a return of the product(s) and, in that event, we do not take title to the refunded product(s).
Returns. All product returns are subject to the Return Policy, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. Some restrictions may apply.
