13. Your Rights To End The Contract
13.1 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:
• if what you have bought is faulty or misdescribed, you may have a legal right to end the contract, see section 15 (Faulty, damaged or incorrect products) for more information about this;
• if you have just changed your mind about the product, see section 13 (Cancelling and returning products if you change your mind). You may be able to get a refund if you are within the 14-day cooling-off period, but this may be subject to deductions and you will have to pay the costs of return of any goods;
13.2 If you are ending a contract for a reason set out below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:

• there is a risk that the supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside of our control (see section 16 (Events outside of our control) for more information about this);
• we have suspended supply of the products for technical reasons, or notify you that we are going to suspend them for technical reasons, in each case for a period of more than [28 days]; or

14. Cancelling And Returning Goods If You Change Your Mind
14.1 As you are purchasing the products as a consumer (i.e. for private use as opposed to business use), you have a 14-day right to cancel the contract between us and you for any reason (this is often called the ‘cooling off period’).
14.2 For goods, the 14-day period starts running on the day on which you acquire physical possession of the goods (i.e. the day the goods are delivered to you). If you have ordered multiple products that are delivered on different days, your right to cancel will expire 14 days after the delivery of the last product.
14.3 Please see our Returns Policy, which sets out information on how you can make a return request.

14.7 Refunds under this section 15 will be issued to you within 14 days from the day on which we receive the products back;
14.8 Refunds under this section 15 will be made using the same payment method that you used when ordering the products, unless you specifically request that we make a refund using a different method.
14.9 Refunds may be reduced for any diminished value in the products resulting from your excessive handling of them (e.g. more than would be permitted in a shop). If we issue a refund before we have received the products and have had a chance to inspect them, we may subsequently charge you an appropriate sum if we find that the products have been handled excessively.
15. Our Rights To End The Contract
15.1 We may end the contract for a product at any time by writing to you if:
• you do not make any payment to us when it is due and you still do not make payment within 2 days of us reminding you that payment is due;
• you do not, within a reasonable time of us asking for it, provide us with information that is necessary for us to provide the products;
• you do not, within a reasonable time, allow us to deliver the products to you or collect them from us;
15.2 If we end the contract in the situations set out in section 16.1, we will refund any money you have paid in advance for products we have not provided but we may deduct or charge you reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your breaking the contract.
15.3 We may write to you to let you know that we are going to stop providing the product. We will let you know at least 12 hours in advance of our stopping the supply of the product and will refund any sums you have paid in advance for products that will not be provided.
