4. Products and Product Descriptions
4.1 Product Information
We make every reasonable effort to ensure that product descriptions, images, sizing guides, and fabric information displayed on the website are accurate and up to date. However, we do not warrant that product descriptions or other content are entirely free from error.
Colours and textures displayed in product images are as accurate as our photography and your screen settings permit. We cannot guarantee that the colour you see on screen exactly matches the physical product due to variations in monitor calibration and display settings.
4.2 Pricing Errors
In the event that a product is listed at an incorrect price due to a typographical error or system fault, we reserve the right to cancel or refuse the order, even after it has been confirmed. We will notify you of the pricing error and provide a full refund if payment has already been processed. We are under no obligation to fulfil an order at an incorrect price.
4.3 Stock Availability
All products are subject to availability. If an item you have ordered is out of stock after your order is confirmed, we will contact you promptly to offer an alternative, a backorder arrangement where applicable, or a full refund.

All prices on the website are listed in United States Dollars (USD) and include applicable taxes unless otherwise stated. Prices are subject to change at any time without notice. The price charged for a product will be the price displayed at the time you submit your order.
5.2 Taxes and Import Duties
For orders shipped within the United States, applicable sales tax will be calculated and displayed at checkout where required by law. For international orders, any customs duties, import taxes, or handling fees levied by the destination country are the sole responsibility of the customer. We have no control over these charges and cannot predict their amount.
5.3 Payment Methods
We accept payment via Stripe, PayPal, and major credit and debit cards. Payment is processed at the time of order. All payment transactions are encrypted and handled by PCI-DSS compliant processors. We do not store full card details on our servers.
5.4 Order Confirmation
An order confirmation email will be sent to your registered email address once your payment has been successfully processed.

We reserve the right to decline or cancel any order after confirmation, in which case a full refund will be issued.

17.1 Informal Resolution
If you have a dispute, complaint, or concern arising from these Terms or your use of the website, we encourage you to contact us first at customer@akostikclothing.com. We will make every reasonable effort to resolve the matter informally within 30 days of receiving your written notice.
17.2 Binding Arbitration
If a dispute cannot be resolved informally within 30 days, both parties agree to resolve it through binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules.

- You and Akostik Clothing each waive the right to a jury trial and to participate in a class action lawsuit
- The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding on both parties
- Each party shall bear its own legal costs unless the arbitrator determines otherwise
- This arbitration agreement does not prevent either party from seeking emergency injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction

If you are located in the European Union, you may also submit a complaint to the European Commission’s Online Dispute Resolution platform at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.

18. Force Majeure
Akostik Clothing shall not be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under these Terms where such failure or delay results from circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, pandemics, war, civil unrest, government action, industrial disputes, utility failures, or failures of third-party service providers.
In such circumstances, we will notify you as soon as reasonably practicable and will make reasonable efforts to resume normal operations. If a force majeure event continues for more than 30 days, either party may cancel the affected order and a full refund will be issued.
19. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid under applicable law, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or severed from the Terms if modification is not possible. The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
