Terms of service

Overview

Welcome to The Brothers' Stones Minerals! “We,” “us,” and “our” refer to The Brothers' Stones Minerals. The Brothers' Stones Minerals operates this shop and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products, and services, to provide you (the customer) with a carefully curated shopping experience (collectively, the “Service”). The Brothers' Stones Minerals is powered by Shopify, which provides the technical infrastructure that enables us to offer the Service to you.

The following terms and conditions, together with any policies referenced in these Terms of Service (collectively, the “Terms of Service” or the “Terms”), describe your rights and responsibilities when using the Service.

Please read these Terms of Service carefully, as they contain important information about your legal rights, including disclaimers and limitations of liability.

By visiting, interacting with, or using our Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and by our Privacy Policy [link]. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service or the Privacy Policy, please do not use or access our Service.


Section 1 – Access and Account

By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in the state or province where you reside, and that you consent to us allowing any of your minor dependents to use the Service on devices you own, purchase, or manage.

To use certain parts of the Service, including accessing or browsing our online store or purchasing any products or services offered by us, you may be required to provide certain information, such as your email address, billing, payment, and shipping information. You represent and warrant that all information you provide in our store is true, complete, and up-to-date, and that you have all necessary rights to provide such information.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You may not transfer, sell, assign, or otherwise authorize your account to any other person.


Section 2 – Our Products

We have made every effort to display our products and services as accurately as possible in our online store. However, because device types and settings/configurations vary, the colors or appearance of products as displayed on your screen may differ from their actual appearance.

We do not guarantee that the appearance or quality of any products or services you purchase will meet your expectations, nor that they will be exactly as described or presented in our online store.

All product descriptions are subject to change at any time without notice. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time and, in some cases, to limit the quantities of any product offered to any person, geographic region, or jurisdiction.


Section 3 – Orders

When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase. The Brothers' Stones Minerals reserves the right, in its sole discretion and for any reason, to accept or reject your order. Your order is only considered accepted once The Brothers' Stones Minerals confirms it. We must receive and process your payment before your order can be accepted. Please carefully review your order before submitting it; once an order has been accepted, The Brothers' Stones Minerals may not be able to cancel it. If we do not accept, modify, or cancel an order, we will attempt to notify you via the email address, billing address, and/or phone number you provided when placing the order.

Your purchases may only be returned or exchanged in accordance with our Refund Policy [link].

You represent and warrant that you are purchasing for personal or household use and not for any commercial resale or export purposes.


Section 4 – Prices and Billing

Prices, discounts, and promotions are subject to change without notice. The price charged for a product or service is the price in effect at the time you place your order and will be set out in your order confirmation email. Unless expressly stated otherwise, listed prices do not include taxes, shipping charges, handling fees, customs duties, or import fees.

Prices listed in our online store may differ from prices available in physical locations or other stores operated by third parties. From time to time, we may offer promotional discounts or offers that affect pricing; such promotions may be governed by separate terms and conditions, independent of these Terms. In the event of any conflict between promotional terms and these Terms, the promotional terms will prevail.

You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate purchase, payment, and account information for all purchases made at our store. You agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address, credit card numbers, and expiration dates (if applicable), so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed.

You represent and warrant that (i) any credit card information you provide is true, accurate, and complete; (ii) you are authorized to use such credit card for purchases; (iii) charges incurred by you will be honored by your credit card company; and (iv) you will pay all charges incurred by you at the posted prices, including any applicable shipping fees, handling fees, and taxes (if any).


Section 5 – Shipping and Delivery

We are not responsible for delays in shipping or delivery. All delivery times are estimates only and cannot be guaranteed. We are not liable for any delays caused by carriers, customs processing, or events beyond our control. Risk of loss and title for products pass to you once we deliver the products to the carrier.
