7. PLACING AN ORDER
Instructions on placing an order are displayed on the relevant pages of our Website.
After you place an order, you will receive an email acknowledging that we have received your order. However, please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Our Contract with you begins when we email you to confirm that we have accepted and dispatched your order (“Dispatch Confirmation”).
All Products on our Website are subject to availability and payment. If we are unable to accept your order (e.g. because the product is out of stock or we have been unable to process your payment), we will inform you of this on the Product page or by email and will not charge you for the order. If you have already paid for the Products, we will refund you the full amount as soon as possible.
We will also be unable to accept your order where we have identified an error in the price or description of your ordered products or we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified. In these instances, we will contact you to inform you of the error and to see if you are happy to proceed with the order with the revised prices and/or delivery dates. We will not accept or charge you for your revised order until you have confirmed you are happy for us to do so.
Our order process allows you to check and amend any errors before submitting your order to us. Please take the time to read and check your order at each page of the order process. If you wish to make a change to the Product you have ordered (but prior to the Dispatch Confirmation) please contact us. We will let you know if the change is possible. If it is possible we will let you know about any changes to the price of the Product, the timing of supply or anything else which would be necessary as a result of your requested change and ask you to confirm whether you wish to go ahead with the change.
8. OUR RIGHTS TO VARY THESE TERMS
We may revise these Terms and/or Products from time to time to reflect (a) changes in how we accept payment from you, or (b) changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements. Where we need to make other changes to the Terms and/or Products, including those which will have a more significant practical impact on you as a result of changes to legal requirements, we will keep you informed of these changes and you may then contact us to end the Contract before the changes take effect and receive a refund for any products paid for but not received. Every time you order Products from us, the Terms in force at that time (as displayed in the relevant date at the top of this document) will apply to the Contract between you and us.
9. DELIVERY AND PACKING
The costs of delivery will be as displayed to you at the checkout page on our Website. We will fulfill your order by the estimated delivery date set out in our Dispatch Confirmation, unless the delay has been caused by an event outside our control (for which we cannot hold responsibility). If delivery is delayed due to events outside our control, we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and provide a revised estimated delivery date. We will take reasonable steps to minimise the effect of the delay and if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to cancel the order and request a refund for any products you have paid for but not received.
If no one is available at your address to take delivery and the products cannot be posted through your letterbox, we will leave the package in a safe place out of sight in accordance with your instructions provided during checkout online or you will be left a note informing you of how to rearrange delivery or collect the products from a local depot. After this, it is your responsibility to track and arrange delivery or collection for your order.
If, after a failed delivery to you, you do not re-arrange delivery or collect them from a delivery depot, we will contact you for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs. We cannot offer refunds or replacements for deliveries of which you fail to take delivery on our second attempt. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange delivery or collection we may end the Contract and clause 12 will apply.
The products will be your responsibility from the time we deliver the product to the address you gave us. You own the products you have purchased once we have received payment in full.
10. YOUR RIGHTS OF RETURN AND REFUND (IF YOU ARE A CONSUMER)
This clause only applies if you are a consumer.
If you wish to end your Contract with us, your rights when you do so will depend on your reasons for cancellation and when you decide to end the Contract. If you want to end the Contract with us because:
- Of something we have done or are going to do. 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 which allow you to end the Contract on this ground are that: we have told you about an upcoming change to the product or these terms which you do not agree to (see clause 8);
- We have told you about an error in the price or description of the product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
- There is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control; or
- You have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong.
-
The Products are faulty or not as described, you may have a legal right to end the Contract or to get the product repaired or replaced, or to get some or all of your money Please refer to clause 13 if you are a consumer and clause 14 if you are a business for further details.
-
You have changed your mind about the Product. In most cases, you may return or exchange any item purchased from BodyBio for any reason within 14 days of delivery for an exchange or refund, through one of the methods set out in clause 10.6 Refunds will be made subject to the conditions in clauses 10.3 to 10.5 below. If your Products have been split into several deliveries over different days, you will have 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) received the last delivery.
We are entitled to refuse your refund request or reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop (e.g. if a seal to the Products has been opened). You should therefore ensure that the Products are returned to us in as close to original condition as possible together with all original packaging. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer (please see our Shipping Policy https://bodybio.co.uk/pages/shipping-policy. For example, if you had the option of Standard delivery taking 4-6 business days but you opted for expedited 1-day delivery at a higher cost, we will only refund what you would have paid for Standard Delivery.
We will make any refunds due to you as soon as possible:- If you are a consumer exercising your right to change your mind, then your refund will be made within 14 days from the day on which we receive the Product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the Product back to us. For information about how to return a product to us, see clause 10.8.
- In all other cases, your refund will be made within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind.

The price of the Products (which include VAT) will be the price indicated on the order pages during the checkout process. This does not include delivery charges, which will be as displayed during the checkout pages on the Website.
We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct at the time when the relevant information was provided. However please see clause 15.4 for what happens in this event.
If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date of delivery, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
Our Website contains a large number of Products and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that:
- Where the Product's correct price is less than the price stated on our Website, we will charge the lower amount at dispatch. However, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the Products to you at the incorrect (lower) price.
- Where the Product's correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, we will contact you as soon as possible to inform you of this error and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Product at the correct price or cancelling your order. We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing.
If you think an invoice is wrong, please contact us promptly to let us know.
We accept payment with most debit and credit cards. Payment for all Products and applicable delivery charges must be made before dispatch. We will not charge your credit or debit card until we dispatch the products to you.
Sales and Special Offers
All sales and special offers are only available for the stated length of the sale/offer. Sales discounts or special offers cannot be retroactively applied. Once a sale or special offer has concluded, the discount will no longer be available.
Sales and special offers cannot be combined with any other offers and cannot be combined with subscription orders.
Sales and/or special offers for retail clients are valid only for purchases made on www.bodybio.co.uk. Discounts cannot be applied to purchases made on our HCP site.
Limitations will apply to all sales/special offers. If a sale offers a discount off of a specific product, the discount will only apply to the specified product. It will not be applied to any other products.
