Terms & Conditions for Cockfosters Flowers Online Delivery Service

Welcome to Cockfosters Flowers. These Terms & Conditions govern your use of our online flower delivery service, applicable to all customers based in Cockfosters and neighbouring areas. By placing an order via our website, you agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions. Please take time to read this document carefully before proceeding with your flower purchase.

1. Definitions

In these Terms & Conditions, "we", "us", and "our" refer to Cockfosters Flowers; "you" and "your" refer to the customers using our online flower delivery service. "Website" refers to our online platform through which flower orders can be placed for delivery in Cockfosters and surrounding areas.

2. Eligibility to Purchase

By placing an order with Cockfosters Flowers, you warrant that you are legally capable of entering into binding contracts, are at least 18 years old, and have provided accurate personal and delivery information. Orders from individuals under 18 years of age or on behalf of third parties without appropriate consent may be cancelled.

3. Service Area

These Terms & Conditions apply to all customers ordering online with delivery to Cockfosters and adjoining localities. If an order is placed outside our advertised delivery area, we reserve the right to decline or cancel the order. Please refer to our website for up-to-date information about our delivery coverage.

4. Order Process

Orders for flower delivery in Cockfosters can be placed using our website 24 hours a day, subject to availability. To place an order, select your preferred bouquet or arrangement, provide accurate recipient and delivery information, select delivery date and time (where applicable), and complete payment at checkout.

Once your order is placed, you will receive an order confirmation detailing your selected flowers, recipient details, delivery address, and anticipated delivery date. Please review these details thoroughly and notify us immediately of any errors. It is your responsibility to provide accurate delivery information; Cockfosters Flowers cannot be held liable for failed deliveries resulting from inaccurate or incomplete addresses or contact information.

If, for reasons beyond our control, a particular flower or item is unavailable, we reserve the right to substitute it with a similar product of equal or greater value, maintaining the overall look and theme of the arrangement.

5. Payments

All prices on our website are in Pounds Sterling (GBP) and include applicable VAT. Payment in full must be made at the time of order using one of the online payment methods listed at checkout (these may include credit/debit cards or secure payment gateways). We reserve the right to cancel orders that have not been paid for in full or where fraudulent activity is suspected.

Once payment is received, your order will be processed for dispatch. You will also receive a payment confirmation indicating the amount paid and summary of your order.

6. Order Amendments & Cancellations

If you wish to amend or cancel your order, you must contact us as soon as possible. Amendments or cancellations must be requested at least 24 hours before the intended delivery date. Requests received after this period may not be processed, particularly where flowers or personalised items have already been prepared or dispatched.

For cancellations made within the required timeframe, we will offer a full refund. Cancellations after preparation or dispatch may be subject to a partial refund or, in some cases, may be ineligible for refund due to the perishable nature of flowers and arrangements.

7. Delivery Terms

We endeavour to deliver all orders on your chosen delivery date. While we make every reasonable effort to meet delivery times, Cockfosters Flowers cannot accept liability for any losses incurred as a result of late or failed deliveries due to circumstances beyond our control, such as adverse weather conditions, traffic delays, or incorrect delivery information supplied by you.

If the recipient is not available at the delivery address, we may leave the flowers with a neighbour or in a safe location (where possible), or contact the recipient to arrange redelivery. Where delivery is not possible, we will attempt to contact you for further instructions. Failure to deliver in such circumstances may not result in a full refund.

8. Returns, Refunds, and Complaints

Due to the perishable nature of flowers, returns are not accepted unless the delivered product is proven to be damaged, substandard, or not as described. In such cases, you must contact us within 24 hours of delivery, providing photographic evidence. We will review your complaint and, if appropriate, offer a replacement or refund at our discretion.

Refunds will be processed using the same payment method as the original purchase. Please allow up to 7 working days for refunds to appear in your account.

9. Customer Responsibilities

It is your responsibility to ensure all provided information—such as recipient’s name, address, and preferred delivery date—is accurate. We are not liable for late, failed, or misdirected deliveries resulting from inaccuracies in the information you provide. Please also ensure recipients will be available to accept delivery, or notify them in advance.

Flower arrangements should be cared for as advised to ensure longevity. We do not assume liability for shortened lifespan or deterioration of flowers due to improper handling or care after delivery.

10. Product Descriptions & Availability

We take every care to ensure product images and descriptions are accurate and up to date. As flowers are a natural product, some variation in colour, size, and shape is to be expected. Where a particular flower is unavailable, we reserve the right to substitute with a similar item to maintain value and style.

All products and services are subject to availability. We reserve the right to withdraw or amend items without prior notice.

11. Liability

Cockfosters Flowers’ liability with respect to any order is strictly limited to the purchase price paid for that order. We do not accept liability for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss or damage arising from your use (or inability to use) our service, save to the extent that such liability cannot be excluded by law.

We do not accept liability for any failure to perform our obligations due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to adverse weather, natural disasters, strikes, or third-party service failures.

12. Personal Data

Your personal information is processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We collect and use data to process and deliver your order, communicate with you, and improve our services in compliance with UK data protection legislation. You may be required to provide personal details for delivery and payment verification.

13. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms & Conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. Any dispute arising under or in connection with these Terms & Conditions shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

14. Changes to Terms

We reserve the right to amend these Terms & Conditions at any time. Updates will be posted on our website and will take effect immediately upon posting. It is your responsibility to review them periodically before placing your order.

15. General

If any provision of these Terms & Conditions is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a competent authority, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. Failure by Cockfosters Flowers to enforce any right or provision of these Terms & Conditions does not constitute a waiver of such rights.

Note: These Terms & Conditions are intended for all online customers of Cockfosters Flowers placing flower delivery orders in Cockfosters and adjacent areas. For queries relating to these terms, please consult our website or reach out through our customer contact facilities.
