3. Ordering Goods from the Site

3.1 The steps required to create the Contract between you and us are as follows:

The display of Goods on the Site does not constitute an offer to sell them as described, or to sell any goods at all. By completing the online checkout process, you are making an offer to buy which incorporates these terms.

3.1.2 When your order is placed with us at the end of the online checkout process, we will e-mail you to acknowledge that we have received your order. This order acknowledgement does not, however, mean that your order has been accepted by us.

3.1.3 We may send you an e-mail to say that we do not accept your order. This is typically for the following reasons:

• the Goods are not available;
• we cannot obtain authorisation of your payment;
• you are not permitted to purchase the Goods; and
• there has been an error by us on the pricing or description of the Goods

 

3.1.4 We will only accept your order when we send you an e-mail that confirms this ('Confirmation E-mail'). At this point, a legally binding contract will be in place between you and us and at this point we will despatch the Goods to you ('Contract'). Any Goods on the same order which we have not confirmed in an order confirmation to have been despatched do not form part of that contract. We reserve the right to decline any order, without giving a reason.

3.1.5 When you order Goods from the Site, Specific Terms or Additional Terms or both may apply as follows:

• Certain Goods that we sell may have specific terms and conditions that apply to it which are set out on the relevant webpage ('Specific Terms’); We may also add to or replace these terms and conditions with additional terms and conditions ('Additional Terms'). This may happen, for example, for security, legal or regulatory reasons. We will e-mail to let you know if we intend to do this by giving you one (1) month’s notice. You may end the Contract at any time by giving one (1) month’s notice if we tell you that Additional Terms will apply to the Contract.
• When you buy Goods from us under any Specific Terms or any Additional Terms you have legal rights. These are also known as ‘statutory rights’ as they are derived from laws such as the Sale of Goods and Supply of Services Act 1980 (as this Act has been amended from time to time). The law gives you certain legal rights including that the Goods are of satisfactory quality, as described, and fit for their purpose. Nothing in any Specific Terms or any Additional Terms affects these legal rights. Further information on your legal rights can be obtained from your local Citizens’ Information Board.
• When placing an order on the Site, you should take care to ensure that all of the information that you provide to us is correct although we appreciate that from time to time errors might be made. Therefore, please ensure that you take enough time to read and check your order before submitting it to us. If you need to correct any errors you can do so before submitting it to us.

4.4 If we experience difficulties in supplying certain Goods we may need to substitute them with alternative Goods of equal or better standard and value.

If you are cancelling the Contract and returning the Goods because of a defect or the Goods were not as described, we will also refund any reasonable costs that you incur in returning the Goods to us.

5.9 If you wish to change or cancel a Contract after you receive the Confirmation Email, it may not always be possible to stop your order from being despatched, as we endeavour to process orders immediately.

This website is brought to you by Weir & Sons.  We take the privacy of our website users very seriously.  We ask that you read this Privacy Policy (the ‘Policy') carefully as it contains important information about how we will use your personal data.

For the purposes of Data Protection Acts 1988, 2003 and 2018, Weir & Sons ('we' or 'us') is the 'data controller' (ie the company who is responsible for, and controls the processing of, your personal data).

 

1. Personal data we may collect about you

1.1 We will obtain personal data about you (such as your name and address) whenever you complete an online form.

1.2 For example, we will obtain your personal data when you purchase goods or services.  We may also obtain sensitive personal data about you if you volunteer it during the completion of an online form.  If you volunteer such information, you will be consenting to our processing it for the purpose of providing our goods and services to you.

1.3 We may monitor your use of this website through the use of cookies and similar tracking devices.  For example, we may monitor how many times you visit, which pages you go to, traffic data, location data and the originating domain name of a user's internet service provider.  This information helps us to build a profile of our users.  Some of this data will be aggregated or statistical, which means that we will not be able to identify you individually. For further information on our use of cookies, please see our Cookie Policy.

1.4 Occasionally we may receive information about you from other sources (such as credit reference agencies), which we will add to the information we already hold about you in order to help us provide goods and services, improve and personalise our service to you.
