Placing an order

Making a purchase could not be easier. Just browse our website, and click on any items that you wish to buy and put them into the shopping cart. After you have finished your selection, click on "Checkout" and you will be asked for a few details that we need to be able to satisfy the order.  Please note that a credit or debit card is required at this stage.

Ordering errors

You are able to correct errors on your order up to the point at which you click on “Process My Payment” on the final page of our ordering process.

Acceptance of your order

We will notify you by email as soon as possible to acknowledge receipt of your order and to provide you with an order number. If we are unable to fulfill your order following this acknowledgement, we will contact you by email or telephone advising you of this.

If an item is out of stock, the website will not let you order this item.  Our acceptance of your order will take place upon payment for the product(s) ordered. If you require any information concerning your order please email us at enquiries@beautique.com quoting your order number. We reserve the right not to accept your order if we have identified a product or pricing error or if we are unable to obtain authorisation for your payment. Please remember that once we accept your submitted order for merchandise on this website, there will be a legally binding contract.

Payment

The price of our products is as shown on our website. The total price, including delivery, will be shown at the ‘checkout’ prior to submitting your final order. If, by mistake, we have under-priced a product, we will inform you as soon as possible and offer you the option of reconfirming your order at the correct price or canceling your order.  If you cancel, we will refund or recredit any sum paid by you.

All our prices are in UK pounds.  We accept all major credit cards.  Payment will be debited and cleared from your account at the point at which your order is dispatched.

Credit Card Security

 All credit/debit card numbers are encrypted in the software when the order is placed, using 128 bit SSL encryption to secure the transaction between us and the user. All data is then passed directly to the Barclays MPI ePDQ payment engine again using 128 Bit SSL encryption and is stored within a Barclays Group Security approved infrastructure.  The card number details are never stored by The Urban Retreat Beautique, providing added security.

Your credit card company may also carry out security checks to confirm that your order is genuine.  If the issuer of your payment card refuses to pay or does not for any reason authorise payment to The Urban Retreat Beautique, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery of merchandise. Risk in the merchandise transfers to you upon delivery.

All orders are subject to our own security and credit card verification procedures.  Beautique UK Ltd reserves the right to withhold any order that has failed to be verified.  Should there be any problem with verification of your card details you will be notified during your payment transaction being cleared by Barclays ePDQ and then by email.

We confirm that we comply with the PCI DSS standards.

Protecting Your Security

To ensure that your credit, debit or charge card is not being used without your consent, we will validate name, address and other personal information supplied by you during the order process against appropriate third party databases. By accepting these terms and conditions you consent to such checks being made. In performing these checks personal information provided by you may be disclosed to a registered Credit Reference Agency which may keep a record of that information. You can rest assured that this is done only to confirm your identity, that a credit check is not performed and that your credit rating will be unaffected. All information provided by you will be treated securely and strictly in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.
