any guarantee in respect of any product that may be supplied by a Merchant through ArchiPro
Ecommerce. The obligation to satisfy any product warranty or guarantee, whether express or
implied, is between you and the Merchant or relevant manufacturer of a product;

Orders and payments

(f) When you place an order and supply payment information, your order is sent to the Merchant who
will confirm whether your order has been accepted or cancelled. A binding contract is created
between you and the Merchant when the Merchant accepts your order. If the Merchant cancels your
order, any payments held or processed will be released to you.

requests to modify an order, you will be notified and must either confirm your acceptance of the
modification or cancel your order.

applicable shipping or tracking details can also be viewed by logging in to ArchiPro Ecommerce.

(i) All payments made through ArchiPro Ecommerce will be processed through the payments service
operated by Stripe New Zealand Limited and integrated with the ArchiPro Ecommerce. Payments are

or as otherwise expressly stated on ArchiPro Ecommerce. A Merchant may cancel an order where it
contains pricing or availability errors, with no further obligations to you. ArchiPro reserves the right
to cancel any orders that we consider to be fraudulent (including instances of credit card or payment
related fraud). If your order is cancelled in either of these circumstances, you will be refunded in full
through the Stripe payments service.

(l) All information relating to the processing of payments (such as credit card details) will be held by
Stripe in accordance with its terms and conditions and not by ArchiPro. ArchiPro will not directly

the ArchiPro returns policy [Drafting note: add hyperlink to ArchiPro returns policy once finalised]
or any returns policy that the relevant Merchant maintains. The applicable returns policy will be
indicated on the product listing.

incorrect items, you may be required to provide evidence of the issue, such as a photo.

(u) Returns of product must be sent directly to the Merchant in accordance with any instructions
provided by the Merchant. If you are required to return an item, the Merchant is responsible for the
return shipping costs where a product is faulty. However, you may be responsible for paying the
return shipping costs in other circumstances (e.g. return due to a change of mind).

(v) If the Merchant confirms that you are eligible for a refund, this will be processed through ArchiPro
