6.1 Minor changes to the goods. We may change the goods:

7.3 We are not responsible for delays outside our control. Once your order is with the shipping provider, delays and issues must be discussed directly with the shipping provider. Where possible we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay.

7.5 If you do not re-arrange delivery. If you do not collect the goods from us as arranged we will contact you for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange delivery or collection we may end the contract and clause 10.2 will apply.
7.6 Your legal rights if we deliver late. You have legal rights if we deliver any goods late. If we miss the delivery deadline for any goods then you may treat the contract as at an end straight away if any of the following apply:
(a) we have refused to deliver the goods;
(b) delivery within the delivery deadline was essential (taking into account all the relevant circumstances); or
(c) you told us before we accepted your order that delivery within the delivery deadline was essential.
7.7 Setting a new deadline for delivery. If you do not wish to treat the contract as at an end straight away, or do not have the right to do so under clause 7.8, you can give us a new deadline for delivery, which must be reasonable, and you can treat the contract as at an end if we do not meet the new deadline.
7.8 Ending the contract for late delivery. If you do choose to treat the contract as at an end for late delivery under clause 7.8 or clause 7.9, you can cancel your order for any of the goods or reject goods that have been delivered. If you wish, you can reject or cancel the order for some of those goods (not all of them), unless splitting them up would significantly reduce their value. After that, we will refund any sums you have paid to us for the canceled goods and their delivery. If the goods have been delivered to you, you must either post them back to us or (if they are not suitable for posting) allow us to collect them from you. We will pay the costs of postage or collection. Please email us at customers@secretwhispers.co.uk for a return label or to arrange collection.
7.9 When you become responsible for the goods. The goods will be your responsibility from the time we deliver them to the address you gave us.
7.10 When you own goods. You own the goods once we have received payment in full.
7.11 What will happen if you do not give the required information to us? We may need certain information from you so that we can supply the goods to you, for example, your contact details. If so, this will have been stated in the description of the goods on our website. We will contact you to ask for this information. If you do not give us this information within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we may either end the contract (and clause 10.2 will apply) or make an additional charge of a reasonable sum to compensate us for any extra work that is required as a result. We will not be responsible for supplying the goods late or not supplying any part of them if this is caused by you not giving us the information we need within a reasonable time of us asking for it.

(a) deal with technical problems or make minor technical changes;
(b) update the goods to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements;
(c) make changes to the goods as requested by you or notified by us to you (see clause 6).
7.13 Your rights if we suspend the supply of goods. We will contact you in advance to tell you we will be suspending supply of the goods, unless the problem is urgent or there is an emergency. If we have to suspend the goods for longer than 30 days we will adjust the price so that you do not pay for goods while they are suspended. You may contact us to end the contract if we suspend the supply of goods, or tell you we are going to suspend it, in each case for a period of more than 90 days and we will refund any sums you have paid in advance for the goods in respect of the period after you end the contract.
7.14 We may also suspend the supply of the goods if you do not pay. If you do not pay us for the goods when you are supposed to (see clause 12.4) and you still do not make payment within 14 days of us reminding you that payment is due, we may suspend the supply of the goods until you have paid us the outstanding amounts. We will contact you to tell you we are suspending the supply of the goods. We will not suspend the goods where you dispute the unpaid invoice (see clause 12.6). We will not charge you for the goods during the period for which they are suspended. As well as suspending the goods we can also charge you interest on your overdue payments (see clause 12.5).

8. YOUR RIGHTS TO END THE CONTRACT

8.1 You can always end your contract with us. Your rights when you end the contract will depend on what you have bought, whether there is anything wrong with it, how we are performing and when you decide to end the contract:
(a) If what you have bought is faulty or misdescribed you may have a legal right to end the contract (or to get the goods repaired or replaced or get some or all of your money back), see clause 11;
(b) If you want to end the contract because of something we have done or have told you we are going to do, see clause 8.2;
(c) If you have just changed your mind about the goods, see clause 8.3. You may be able to get a refund if you are within the cooling-off period, but this may be subject to deductions [and you will have to pay the costs of return of any goods];
(d) In all other cases (if we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind), see [clause 8.7 OR clause 8.8].
8.2 Ending the contract because of something we have done or are going to do. If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at (a) to (e) below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any goods which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:
(a) we have told you about an upcoming change to the goods or these terms which you do not agree to (see clause 6.2);
(b) we have told you about an error in the price or description of the goods you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
(c) there is a risk that the supply of the goods may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;
(d) we have suspended the supply of the goods for technical reasons, or notify you we are going to suspend them for technical reasons, in each case for a period of more than 30 days; or
(e) you have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong (see clause 7.8).
8.3 Exercising your right to change your mind (Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013). For most goods bought online you have a legal right to change your mind within 30 days and receive a refund. These rights, under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, are explained in more detail in these terms.
8.4 When you don't have the right to change your mind. You do not have a right to change your mind in respect of:
(a) goods sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes, once these have been unsealed after you receive them;
(b) any goods which become mixed inseparably with other items after their delivery.
8.5 How long do I have to change my mind? How long you have depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered.
(a) 30 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the goods, unless:
(i) Your goods are split into several deliveries over different days. In this case you have until 30 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receive the last delivery to change your mind about the goods.
8.6 Ending the contract where we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind. If you do not have any other rights to end the contract (see clause 8.1), you can still contact us before it is completed and tell us you want to end it. If you do this the contract will end immediately and we will refund any sums paid by you for goods not provided but we may deduct from that refund a £5 processing fee.

9. HOW WE MAY USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

9.1 How we will use your personal information. We will use the personal information you provide to us:
