    To place an order and purchase products on the site, you should follow the instructions and process described on the site.

    By clicking on the “Check Out” button, you are confirming your intent to purchase the items in your order and are committing to purchase those items from the site. Please ensure that you check over your order carefully before submitting it to us. By submitting an order, you are confirming that you have the authority and right to purchase the products using the contact, delivery, and payment information provided to us.

    Once an order is placed, it is subject to our acceptance, and we may refuse orders for any reason without any liability to you (other than a refund of any charge made with respect to the order). If we cannot accept your order for any reason, such as product unavailability, any error in the product and/or price description, delivery issues, or improper or incomplete payment information, we will inform you of this. You will not be charged for any order that we cannot accept.

    We will confirm our acceptance of your order by generating a confirmation page on the site and/or sending a confirmation email to the email address you provide. Once an order has been accepted by us, it cannot be canceled except as provided in these Sale Terms.

    Accepted orders will be provided with an order number, which will be used to track and address issues with your order. Please retain your order number.

    The images and descriptions of products on the site are for illustrative and informational purpose purposes only. We make reasonable efforts to accurately describe our products offered on the site. However, we do not warrant that such descriptions, or any specifications, pricing, or other content on the site is complete, accurate, reliable, up-to-date, or error-free. All descriptions of products and product pricing are subject to change, at any time and without notice. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time.

    Without limiting the foregoing or any Additional Site Terms:

    5. PRODUCT PRICING, TAXES, AND SHIPPING COSTS

    We reserve the right to change prices as we may determine in our sole discretion, at any time and without notice. By submitting an order, you confirm your agreement to pay the price as shown on each product as displayed on the site in your cart/checkout information.

    For orders shipped to certain states, we may be required to collect state sales tax as a percentage of the total value of the order (which may, depending on state law, include shipping charges). Taxes will be displayed to you at checkout at the time you place your order, depending on the ZIP code you enter with your order.

    If at any time your payment method cannot be verified, is invalid, or otherwise is not accepted, your order may be suspended or cancelled until you are able to resolve the problem to our satisfaction. We will not be responsible for any delays due to payment validation checks.

    If you have a registered account on our site and you want to change or update any saved payment information, you can do so by logging into your account and making the applicable edits. 

    We use a third party vendor, Shopify, a payments provider who is Payment Card Industry – Data Security Standard compliant, to facilitate and process payments through the site.

In the warmer months (May - October) and depending on shipping location and temperature, orders may be shipped in biodegradable insulated packaging with cold packs to protect these products from the heat. This ensures you receive the freshest product possible.

    Shipment dates provided to you at the time orders are placed are approximate, and may depend on weather or other events beyond our control. We attempt to provide tracking information with your shipment notifications(s), but we are not responsible for the accuracy of that tracking information. Some circumstances that may result in delayed shipment or delivery include:

    • Payment issues
    • Incorrect or incomplete shipping information
    • Orders held because items are out of stock
    • Issues affecting carrier operations (including severe weather)

    Products are generally delivered during normal carrier delivery hours (which may vary depending on your location). If you are not at home when your delivery arrives, depending on any preferences or instructions you may have established with the carrier, the carrier may leave the package for you at your door. Any individual at your delivery address who accepts a delivery from us is presumed to be authorized to receive the delivery. If a carrier is not able to deliver an order for any reason, the carrier may (depending on the carrier’s terms and conditions) hold the package at their facility and/or require you to make alternate arrangements for pick-up or delivery. The carrier’s policies and practices are outside of our control, and we will not be liable to you, the carrier, or any third party for any storage or additional delivery costs, or any treatment of the package while in the carrier’s control or after delivery to you. If a carrier returns a package to us due to delivery failures, we will contact you either to arrange re-delivery, or to cancel your order and refund the purchase price (less costs associated with the package delivery and return).

    Shipping to P.O. Boxes is NOT available. Shipping to APO/FPO and International addresses are not currently available as a standard option. Please call e-mail us at info@awakechocolate.com, for the status and charges for your specific location.

    8. ORDER CHANGES AND CANCELLATIONS

    Following our acceptance of any order, that order is irrevocable and we will not have any obligation to change or cancel that order. For this reason, we again remind you to check over the details of your order (including the precise products ordered, quantities, and prices).

    However, if you wish to make a change to an order after submitting it, you can contact us at info@awakechocolate.com. We will review your order, and let you know if any changes are possible, subject to our sole discretion.

    9. NO REFUNDS OR EXCHANGES

    All of our sales are final. For health and safety reasons and due to the perishable nature of our products, we are unable to accept any products for return or exchange. 

    If you receive products that are defective or damaged, if you receive a product that is different from the one you ordered, or if your order is incomplete, please notify us at info@awakechocolate.com within 5 days of receiving the item (based on carrier tracking). In such cases, a refund or replacement product may be provided in our discretion.

    If you set up a subscription, you agree to recurring purchases in the quantities and at the frequency you set. You acknowledge that the cost of your subscription may change based on changes to product or delivery pricing. You will be automatically charged for each shipment, at the time of shipment, using the payment method selected by you when you set up the subscription. If we are unable to charge your payment method for any reason, your shipment may be delayed or canceled.
