Registration

You may be required to register on the website if you wish to access the website. Registration is achieved using a registration form available on the website. Where you register with the social networks to access the branded websites you grant permission to the social networks to pass certain of your personal information to us to enable you to access the sites. Registration with the social networks is subject to the social networks’ terms of use.

When you register on the website you may be asked to select a username and password which you will use to secure your account. Once registered, you will be able to log into your account using your username and your password or your relevant account information with your preferred authentication service.

In order to successfully complete the registration process, you may be required to submit information about yourself and your preferences to us (“registration data”). The use of your registration data is dealt with in our Privacy Policy (link available below), which, for the avoidance of doubt, forms part of these Terms and Conditions.

You warrant that the registration data is accurate, current and complete (this includes registration data we may receive from the providers). You will be denied access to the website should you breach this warranty or subsequently be found to have breached this warranty.

We may take steps to verify your registration data once you have completed the requisite registration process using a verification email sent to your given email address. You agree to this verification process and irrevocably consent to us gaining access to relevant information held by 3rd parties (including, but not limited to the social networks) which may be required to reasonably complete the verification process. You acknowledge and agree that access to the sites may be limited until such time as the verification process has been successfully completed.

Should you not agree to the verification process as contemplated above or withhold your consent, your access to the website, generally, may be suspended or terminated and you waive any claims you may have against us, our associates, our officers, directors, employees, servants, agents and / or contractors arising out of our denial of access to you to the sites.

  • If any security violations are believed to have occurred in association with your account, we reserve the right to suspend access to your account pending an investigation and resolution.

The user warrants that all orders for goods placed in relation to the users account are made by the user or with the Users express consent and that the user will be responsible for the payment of any orders for goods in respect of the user’s account.
