Here’s all the legal stuff… Mostly we’re just trying to run a reasonable business with the kind of service you’d expect from people who care about their customers, but we’re required to formalise the T’s & C’s, so here they are.

Detailed Description of Goods / Services

Dizzy Enterprises (Dane du Plooy t/a) is a business, in the electronics / IT industry, which primarily partakes in software/electronic engineering as well as marketing of microcontroller-related electronic development tools.

Errors & Omissions Excepted

We reserve the right to decline any order for any reason, such as incorrect website pricing or stock availability. In the event that an order is declined, any payment already made will be refunded in full within 5 working days.

Delivery Policy

Subject to availability and receipt of payment, requests will be processed within 3 working days (that’s the stated time, but it’s normally within 1 working day) and dispatched via the selected delivery service or readied for collection. If processing time may be longer than usual, such as during holiday periods, then this will normally be indicated via a notice displayed at the top of our website. Updates to order status, such as delivery tracking number information, will be provided (via email, phone, or otherwise).

Returns, Refunds and Warranty

Return of correctly supplied goods will be accommodated where possible. Returns may however be declined in the event that the goods were specially supplied and are not part of our normal stock inventory. It is obviously not possible to return software with digital licensing options, such as a KeyFile license. A handling fee of up to 15% may be levied, in order to cover order processing costs, such as card transaction fees. Shipping costs are normally not refundable. Goods incorrectly supplied (or faulty goods) may be collected by us at our expense (from the point of delivery, or another location if agreed to by both the customer and us); and will be replaced with the correct goods (or repaired), or refunded in full. All goods supplied carry a 1-year warranty for manufacturer defects.

Limitation of Liability

It is the customers responsibility to inspect goods upon receipt, confirm that they meet the customers expectations and are fit for the customers requirements / intended use (before implementing them as such), and take responsibility for them thereafter. Incorrectly supplied or faulty goods will be handled according to our returns, refunds and warranty policy (detailed above). What this means is that; if for example you use something purchased from us to build a coffee machine for a new base on Mars, and for example the part purchased from us fails and your coffee machine on Mars stops working, then we won’t be responsible for e.g. the cost of retrieving the coffee machine from Mars in order to repair it. If you require us to accept further responsibility than that stated in this paragraph, then please talk to us and we’ll see what we can work out (obviously additional costs will probably be involved).
