Terms of Service

OVERVIEW

Welcome to Solcotta. The terms “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Solcotta. Solcotta operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products and services in order to
provide you, the customer, with a curated shopping experience (the “Services”).
Solcotta is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you.

These Terms of Service, together with any policies referenced herein, describe your rights and responsibilities when you use the
Services.

By using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you may not use the Services.

 

ACCESS AND ACCOUNT

You confirm that you are at least the age of majority in your country or province of residence.

You agree that all information provided to us is accurate, current, and complete. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and for all activity under it.

 

OUR PRODUCTS

We aim to represent our products as accurately as possible. However, variations in colour and appearance may occur depending on your device.

We do not guarantee that product appearance or results will match your expectations.

Because every horse and environment is different, individual responses to Solcotta products may vary. Our products are intended for general equine care use only and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or medical condition. Customers should consult a qualified veterinarian where appropriate.

Product descriptions may change at any time without notice.

We reserve the right to discontinue or limit product availability at our discretion.

 

ORDERS

An order placed through our store constitutes an offer to purchase. Solcotta reserves the right to accept or reject any order at its discretion.

An order is only confirmed once payment has been successfully processed.

We may cancel or decline orders and will attempt to notify you using the contact details provided at checkout.

Orders are subject to our Shipping Policy and Refund Policy.

You agree that purchases are for personal use only and not for resale unless otherwise agreed in writing.

 

PRICES AND BILLING

Prices are subject to change without notice.

The price charged will be the price at the time of order confirmation.

You agree to provide accurate payment and billing information.

You confirm that:

  • You are authorised to use the payment method;
  • All charges will be honoured;
  • You are responsible for payment of all applicable fees.

Promotional discounts and codes cannot be applied retrospectively to completed orders unless otherwise stated. Unless explicitly allowed, discounts cannot be combined.

 

SHIPPING AND DELIVERY

All delivery times are estimates only and not guaranteed.

We process orders within 2–3 business days before dispatch.

Once dispatched, orders are fulfilled by third-party courier services and are subject to their delivery timelines and conditions.

We are not responsible for delays caused by couriers, customs, weather, strikes, supply disruptions, or events beyond our control.

Risk transfers to the customer once the order has been handed over to the courier.

 

FORCE MAJEURE

Solcotta shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by events outside of our reasonable control. This includes, but is not limited to, courier delays, strikes, load shedding or power outages, supplier shortages, extreme weather, government actions, or disruptions to transport or communication systems.
