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


SECTION 2 - OUR PRODUCTS

We have made every effort to provide accurate product descriptions, images and information. However, product colours, packaging, appearance or presentation may differ slightly from what appears on your screen due to device settings, photography, lighting or display differences.

Product descriptions, prices and availability are subject to change at any time without notice. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time and may limit the quantities of products offered to any person, region or jurisdiction.

Our products are food and beverage products. Customers are responsible for reviewing ingredient information, allergen information and product labels before consumption. If you have food allergies, dietary restrictions or medical concerns, please review the product information carefully before purchasing or consuming the product.


SECTION 3 - ORDERS

When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase. GAUL reserves the right to accept or decline your order for any reason at our discretion.

Your order is only accepted once we confirm acceptance and payment has been successfully processed. Please review your order carefully before submitting it, as we may be unable to accommodate cancellation or amendment requests after an order has been accepted or processed.

If we do not accept, make a change to, or cancel an order, we will attempt to notify you by contacting the email address, billing address and/or phone number provided at the time the order was made.

Your purchases are subject to return, refund or replacement only in accordance with our Return and Refund Policy.

You represent and warrant that your purchases are for your own personal or household use and not for commercial resale or export.

Prices, discounts and promotions are subject to change without notice. The price charged for a product will be the price in effect at the time the order is placed and will be set out in your order confirmation email.

Unless otherwise stated, posted prices do not include shipping, handling or other applicable charges. GAUL is not GST-registered and does not currently charge GST.

We may offer promotions from time to time. Promotions may be subject to additional terms and conditions. If there is a conflict between promotional terms and these Terms of Service, the promotional terms will apply to that specific promotion.

You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase, payment and account information for all purchases made through our store. You agree to promptly update your account and payment information so that we can complete your transactions and contact you when needed.

Once an order has been handed over to the delivery provider, delivery timing is subject to the provider’s operations. If there are issues with delivery, customers may contact us at info@gaul.sg and we will assist where reasonably possible.

Customers are responsible for ensuring that the shipping address and contact details provided are accurate and complete. GAUL is not responsible for failed deliveries caused by incorrect or incomplete information provided by the customer.
