Terms of Service

Last updated: October 2025


OVERVIEW

Welcome to Bead Away Ltd (“we”, “us”, “our”).
Bead Away Ltd operates this website and associated online store (collectively, the “Services”) to provide customers with access to our range of products and content.

Our Services are hosted on Shopify Inc., which provides the e-commerce platform enabling us to sell our products and services to you.

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) — together with our Privacy Policy, Refund Policy, and Shipping Policy (collectively, the “Policies”) — set out your rights and obligations when using our Services or purchasing from us.

By accessing or using our website, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not access or use our Services.


SECTION 1 – ACCESS AND ACCOUNT

By agreeing to these Terms, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) and that you have consented to allow any of your minor dependents to use the Services under your supervision.

You may be required to create an account or provide certain personal information (e.g., name, email, billing, payment, and shipping details) to complete a purchase. You agree that all information provided is accurate, current, and complete, and that you have authority to use the payment method provided.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You must not share or transfer your account to any other person.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account if we suspect fraudulent activity or misuse of our Services.


SECTION 2 – OUR PRODUCTS

We aim to display accurate images and descriptions of our products. However, the appearance of items may vary depending on screen resolution and lighting conditions.
All product descriptions, specifications, and prices are subject to change at any time without notice.

We reserve the right to:

  • Limit sales quantities per person or order;

  • Discontinue products or collections at any time;

  • Restrict orders where we believe purchases are for resale rather than personal use.

We do not warrant that product descriptions or other content are error-free, complete, or current.


SECTION 3 – ORDERS

When you place an order with Bead Away Ltd, you are making an offer to purchase.
An order is only accepted once payment has been successfully processed and you receive an order confirmation email.

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel orders for reasons including product unavailability, errors in product or pricing information, or suspicion of fraudulent activity.

If your order cannot be fulfilled, we will contact you promptly and refund any payment received.

Your purchases are subject to our Refund Policy [LINK].
All goods remain the property of Bead Away Ltd until full payment has been received.


SECTION 4 – PRICES, TAXES AND BILLING

All prices are listed in British Pounds Sterling (£) and include VAT (Value Added Tax) at the applicable UK rate, unless stated otherwise.
Prices, discounts, and promotions may change without notice. The price charged will be the one displayed at the time you place your order.

Shipping and handling costs are calculated at checkout based on weight, size, and delivery location.

You agree to provide valid, up-to-date billing and payment details. You authorise us to charge your chosen payment method for your order total, including taxes and shipping fees.

If your payment is declined, the order will not be processed.


SECTION 5 – SHIPPING AND DELIVERY

Orders are processed within 2–3 business days after receiving your order confirmation.
Delivery times are estimates only and may vary depending on courier service or seasonal demand.

Bead Away Ltd is not responsible for delays caused by couriers, postal services, or incorrect delivery information supplied by the customer.
Once your order is dispatched, ownership and risk transfer to you.

All UK delivery charges are calculated and displayed at checkout.
We currently ship within the United Kingdom only; international delivery is not available at this time.

For more information, see our Shipping Policy [LINK].


SECTION 6 – INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

All intellectual property rights in our Services — including text, logos, images, graphics, product designs, videos, and other content — are owned or licensed by Bead Away Ltd.

You may view and download materials from our site for personal, non-commercial use only. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, publish, or modify any content without our written consent.

All trademarks, trade names, and brand logos displayed on the site remain the property of their respective owners.


SECTION 7 – OPTIONAL TOOLS AND THIRD-PARTY LINKS

We may provide access to third-party tools or links to external websites.
These are provided “as is” without warranties, and we do not monitor or control them.

We are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of third-party tools, content, or websites. Please review their terms and privacy policies before engaging with them.


SECTION 8 – RELATIONSHIP WITH SHOPIFY

Our website is hosted and powered by Shopify Inc..
All sales and transactions are made directly with Bead Away Ltd.
Shopify is not responsible for the sale, delivery, or warranty of our products.
By using our Services, you acknowledge that any disputes or claims relating to your purchases must be directed to Bead Away Ltd, not Shopify.


SECTION 9 – PRIVACY AND DATA PROTECTION

We collect and process personal information in accordance with our Privacy Policy [LINK], which complies with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

Because our store is hosted by Shopify, some data (such as payment or analytics information) may be processed by Shopify and its affiliates outside the UK. Shopify’s own Privacy Policy explains how it handles personal information.

By using our Services, you consent to this processing and acknowledge that your data may be transferred securely to third-party providers as necessary to fulfil your order.


SECTION 10 – FEEDBACK AND USER CONTENT

If you submit reviews, feedback, suggestions, or other content (“Feedback”), you grant Bead Away Ltd a perpetual, royalty-free licence to use, reproduce, and display that content for marketing or operational purposes.

You must ensure any Feedback you provide does not infringe third-party rights or contain defamatory, obscene, or unlawful material.
We may remove Feedback that violates these standards or applicable law.


SECTION 11 – ERRORS, INACCURACIES, AND OMISSIONS

Occasionally there may be errors in product information, pricing, or availability.
We reserve the right to correct such errors or cancel orders affected by them, even after an order has been submitted, without prior notice.


SECTION 12 – PROHIBITED USES

You may use our Services only for lawful purposes. You must not:

  • Use the website to engage in fraudulent, abusive, or illegal activity;

  • Upload or transmit viruses, malware, or other harmful code;

  • Infringe on our or others’ intellectual property rights;

  • Interfere with website security features or network integrity.

We reserve the right to terminate or restrict access to our Services for any prohibited or unlawful use.


SECTION 13 – TERMINATION

We may terminate or suspend your access to our Services at any time if you breach these Terms or misuse our platform.
All obligations that should survive termination (such as intellectual property rights, indemnity, and limitation of liability) shall continue in effect.


SECTION 14 – DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

Our Services and products are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.
While we take care to ensure accuracy, we do not warrant that our Services will be error-free, uninterrupted, or that products will meet your expectations.

Nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights under UK law, including your rights in relation to faulty or misdescribed goods.


SECTION 15 – LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Except as required by law, Bead Away Ltd shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss (including loss of profit, revenue, or data) arising from your use of our Services or products.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for:

  • Fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation;

  • Breach of your statutory consumer rights.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Bead Away Ltd, its employees, and partners from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from your breach of these Terms or misuse of our Services.
