6. Shipping and Delivery

Shipping. We will arrange for the Products that you order to be delivered to the delivery address that you specify during the checkout process. Please note that we do not deliver to PO boxes. The applicable shipping charges (if any) will be calculated and displayed to you during the checkout. After the Products have been dispatched, you will receive a shipment confirmation email with a tracking number and an estimated delivery time. We ship the Products to the continental United States only. The estimated delivery times and delivery fees remain subject to change at our sole discretion.

Our responsibility. We are not responsible for any fees applied by third parties during or after shipping (tariffs, taxes, etc.). Such fees must be paid by you. We will not reimburse such fees. We are not liable for any Products that were damaged during shipment. If you receive damaged Products, please contact us within 24 hours following the receipt of the damaged Products. If the damage was caused by our delivery partner, you may need to file a claim with it.

Delivery delay. We use reasonable endeavors to ensure that the Products are delivered on or before the date indicated for delivery. However, we cannot guarantee delivery by this date as the delivery is executed by our third-party delivery partners and we are not liable for any delays that occur outside our reasonable control. If you have not received your Products during the specified delivery times, please contact us and we will look into your order.

Delivery failure due to your fault. If (i) our delivery partner is unable to deliver your Products, (ii) such failure occurs due to your fault, and (iii) you do not collect your Products from the delivery partner within the relevant time period, we may, but have no obligation to, agree to arrange for re-delivery of the Products. We reserve the right to charge you for the actual costs of re-delivery. Below are examples of situations where a failure to deliver is considered to be your fault:

  • You provided the wrong address for delivery;
  • There is a mistake in the address for delivery that was provided;
  • The address for delivery is not reasonably or safely accessible;
  • If in-person receipt is not required, there is no easy and secure means of leaving the Products at the address for delivery and there is no person available to accept delivery; or
  • If in-person receipt is required, there is no person available to provide a signature.

7. Fees, Payments, and Refunds

The Fees. The order of the Products is subject to the applicable fees (the “Fees”) payable by you in accordance with the schedule of the Fees available on the respective webpage of each Product. By concluding a purchase contract with us (i.e., placing your order), you agree to pay the Fees in accordance with these Terms, the terms and conditions of the respective Fees, and other terms and conditions in force at the moment the service contract is concluded. The Fees remain valid for as long as (i) they are indicated on the Website or (ii) as communicated by us. The Fees are subject to a change without a prior notice. Any changes to the Fees will be made available to you and, if necessary, we will request you to provide consent to the amendments of the Fees.

Taxes. Unless indicated otherwise, the Fees exclude sales tax and duties imposed by taxing authorities. We are not responsible for covering any Internet service fees, surcharges, and other amounts incurred as a result of your use of the Website and you are solely responsible for covering such costs.

Payment. All payments related to the Website and your orders are processed by our third-party payment processors Stripe and PayPal (the “Payment Processors”). When you make a payment on the Website, the Payment Processors collect some personal data from you which allow them to make the payments requested by you (e.g., your credit card number, expiration date, billing address, and security codes). The Payment Processors handle all steps in the payment process through their systems, including data collection and data processing. We do not have direct access to your full payment information – only a part of it is made available to us by the Payment Processors. You are responsible for ensuring that all payment information is correct and the funds necessary for paying the Fees are available. You agree not to hold us liable for payments that do not reach us because you have quoted incorrect payment information or the Payment Processors refused the payment for any other reason.

Faulty Products. If you find that the Products that you have received are faulty or wrong Products have been delivered to you, you can, within 14 days from the day you received the said Products:

  • Cancel the purchase and return the Products to us;
  • Request a reduction of the Fees (please contact us for further information), which we may or may not agree to at our sole discretion;
  • Request to replace the Products with the same non-faulty Products or similar Products (please contact us for further information).

Refunds. To request a refund, you must contact us by email at geek@geekidoc.com and explain the issue. Also, if we ask you to do so, you may be required to return the faulty Products to us. If we approve your refund request, we will refund the Fees in full or in part, including initial basic (cheapest) delivery costs (if any), by using the same payment method that was used to make the payment. The refund may be withheld until we receive the returned Products, the Products are assessed as being properly returned back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the Products, whichever is the earliest.
