Introduction
We may revise these terms and conditions at any time by updating this posting. Please check this web site from time to time to review the terms and conditions, as they are binding on you. Certain provisions of these terms and conditions may be superseded by expressly designated legal notices or terms located on a particular page of this web site.

Security
Our database only holds basic customer information. When you place an order you will be directed to Shopify Payments. This is a secure payment website which will take your card details etc. This information is NOT held by us. Shopify then inform us that a payment has been made relating to your particular order number. If you would prefer to give your details by phone, we do have the means to enter them manually. After which your card details are destroyed.
Due to high levels of internet fraud and to offer better protection to our customers, we have decided that initial orders may only be sent to the cardholders address. If, however you find this to be impractical you will be required to contact us by phone to establish extra security information before the goods are sent. Similarly, if we suspect that a card may be being used fraudulently, we may contact the cardholder by phone to confirm security details before despatching the goods.
A ruling by the European Court of Justice (ECJ) has invalidated the existing Safe Harbour Framework, which allowed the transfer of data between the EU and the U.S. As a response to the continuing negotiations between the EU and U.S., we must inform you that data may be held on servers based in the U.S. This information is held securely and is not available to any other parties.
Delivery
'Free Delivery' offer applies to orders over £50 and for delivery on the Mainland UK (exc Scottish Highlands) only.
For other areas please refer to 'UK Deliveries' tab on home page. At the moment we do not deliver to Channel Isles, ROI or abroad therefore all references to delivery, free or otherwise, apply to the UK only (excluding the Channel Islands). There are charges for deliveries to Highlands of Scotland, Northern Ireland and The Isle of Man.
All orders placed online for delivery on the Isle of Wight over the value of £20 are delivered free and orders under £20 are charged £3.00.
From time to time some items may be offered with free delivery regardless of cost. These will be marked accordingly on the website.If you are ordering a small item and feel that the postage may be excessive then please get in touch and we'll see what we can do.
Some items over 30kg, and bulk orders which may need palletising, may incur a delivery surcharge. On the rare occasion this occurs, we will contact you before your order is processed to ask for the extra payment or to allow you change or cancel the order for a full refund. We shall not process any orders until we have received the additional payment from you having advised you of the additional shipping cost.
All references to delivery times are approximate. We try to send parcels out within 2 working days following placement of order by 24hr courier (48hr for very large items or being sent to N.I., IOM & Scottish Highlands) or smaller, lighter items by Royal Mail 1st/2nd class post. At present we use DX as our preferred carrier. If you have supplied an email address, DX will email you beforehand giving a one hour window advising when your parcel is likely to be delivered. Similarly, if you have supplied a mobile phone number we will pass this on to DX who will text the information. This saves you having to wait in all day. If the timing is not convenient they should leave a card with instructions on how to acquire your parcel. Parcels that are sent by DX can be tracked at www.dxdelivery.com/track using the reference number given by DX. Whilst we will endeavour to deliver within the stated period we are governed by the limitations of the carrier or postal system and as such cannot be held responsible for any delays incurred due to circumstances beyond our control i.e. strikes, acts of God, times of high usage etc. If goods are sent by courier they will need to be signed for, which means there will have to be a presence at the address to which the goods are being sent. If there is no-one to accept delivery the carrier will leave a message informing you of where the parcel can be collected. Redelivery may be arranged between you and the carrier, but some carriers will make a charge for this service. This charge will be borne by you.
Unfortunately we cannot give tracking information for goods sent by Royal Mail. Occasionally customers give instructions for delivery, such as 'Leave in shed or greenhouse' or 'Leave with neighbour' If you give such an instruction we cannot be held liable for any subsequent theft, loss or damage to the goods which may occur.

Recycling
UK Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)
Regulations (SI 2006 No. 3289)
The UK WEEE regulations require that businesses involved in the supply of electrical equipment take an active role in its collection and recycling.
As a conscientious business, W Hurst & Son (IW) Ltd has chosen to offer a like for like take back scheme where you can return your old item when you buy a new one. This is a free of charge service for Isle of Wight customers. This means that if you purchase a new electrical product from us we have to take back your old one to be disposed of. For example, if you buy a new kettle you can bring your old one in for disposal. This is called a like for like take back. The product you buy must be the same as the product you return. If we have to come and collect it, because you are unable to bring it in, we will make a collection charge of £5.00. However, if we deliver your new one and collect the old one at the same time there is no charge (This applies to customers on the Isle of Wight only)
If you live on the mainland you will have to pay for the postage to return your old one to us. Alternatively, you can take it to your local WEEE collection facility, free of charge, which can be located at www.recycle-more.co.uk
UK households dispose of over 1.2 million tonnes of electronic waste every year. This is the equivalent of 150,000 double decker buses and would be enough to fill the new Wembley Stadium six times over.
Much of the UK’s electronic waste ends up in landfill sites, where toxins put communities at risk. Failure to segregate any type of recyclable material in the home will usually result in items being disposed of in a landfill site (buried in the ground in the UK) or being incinerated.
To remind you to recycle, all new electrical products are marked with a crossed out wheelie bin symbol.
The Isle of Wight Designated Collection Facility can be found at:
Lynnbottom Household Waste Recycling Centre Briddlesford Road, Newport, Isle of Wight.
Where the following materials are collected:
Fridges
Other large kitchen appliances
Televisions and monitors
Fluorescent tubes and low energy light bulbs
All other waste electrical and electronic equipment
Find out how to minimise your effect on the environment and to locate all other collection facilities throughout the UK, please visit www.recycle-more.co.uk
Under the Waste Battery Regulations, W Hurst & Sons are now offering a take back scheme for all portable waste batteries. You can return your waste household batteries to any of our business premises in person. Alternatively, you can find your local waste portable battery recycling facility at BatteryBack.org Most supermarkets and shops that sell batteries will have collection bins for used batteries, and some town halls, libraries or schools may also set up collection points. End-users may find stores in their local area more accessible.
