A binding agreement arises only when the Customer receives a shipping notification email ("Order Confirmation").
Orders placed in the webshop are binding for the Customer.
We strive to ensure product availability but cannot guarantee stock availability. If unable to fulfill an order, we either offer an equivalent alternative product, which the Customer may accept or reject, or inform the Customer about our inability to fulfill the order.
If the Customer declines the alternative or if we cannot fulfill the order, our sole obligation is to refund the purchase price if already paid. These are the Customer's exclusive remedies in such cases.
DermaGuru operates as an international wholesaler. Except as explicitly stated herein, DermaGuru is not responsible for compliance with local or international regulations applicable to the Customer or Products in the Customer's jurisdiction.
