But it must be stressed that we cannot guarantee a delivery time or date. We are not liable for any cost incurred due to a delayed delivery.
MEASUREMENTS
Whilst Ecarpets provide an online calculator to assist you in measuring the volume of carpet needed to cover your floor space in an attempt to save money, we do not accept any liability for inaccurate measurements used to purchase goods via Ecarpets. It is the sole responsibility of the ‘Buyer’ to provide the correct measurements prior to purchase.
CANCELLATIONS

Any amounts paid for orders cancelled after this timescale will not be refundable. As a ‘Buyer’, there are certain terms implied into your agreement with us, which we cannot exclude or limit. For example, under the Sale of Goods Act 1979 (as amended) we must ensure that the Goods are of satisfactory quality. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions affect these statutory rights.

DATA PROTECTION
It is Ecarpets policy to take all necessary steps to ensure that personal data is processed fairly and lawfully. We will take all necessary steps to implement this policy. In order to process your order for ‘Goods’ we shall require your name, address, delivery address, (if different) telephone number and email address. We shall also require the information necessary for the payment by credit or debit card. The information that you provide for this purpose will be used for the processing of your order. No credit or debit card detail are stored Ecarpets shall hold this information for registered users until you notify us that you no longer wish to be a registered with Ecarpets.

We do not pass on personal details of our customers to third parties, employees, sub-contractors and agents whom we may use to deliver the Goods or supply the services.
FLOOR COVERING COLOURS/PATTERN MATCHING/INSTALLATION
Although Ecarpets will endeavour to supply ‘Goods’ in accordance with the colour charts shown on the website or samples posted out, we cannot guarantee the products supplied will be an exact colour match to those shown. It is therefore possible that minor differences may occur which are inherent in all produced products. These differences do not occur due to a default in the manufacture of Goods. We would bring your attention to the following matters that are characteristic to carpets and other floor coverings. Ecarpets will endeavour to colour match different carpet widths but cannot guarantee identical matches. Side-by-side pattern matching or consistent room to room linear design directions cannot be guaranteed.Pile carpets, especially those with plain grounds, are liable to shading, where light and dark patches arise due to uneven surface pressure. Shading is a natural occurrence in carpets and is not a manufacturing fault and will not affect its durability. We would point out that light and delicately shaded carpets are prone to becoming soiled in everyday wear. This may give the carpet an appearance of losing its colour. All cut pile fabrics of any fibre type will flatten due to use, particularly in areas of heavy footfall. Regular vacuuming will help to allay this. Pile flattening is a normal reaction to localized traffic and is not a manufacturing defect. Carpet seams will be present if the room or area exceeds the width of the carpet selected.
DISCLAIMERS
Ecarpets do not warrant that use of our website is entirely free from the risk of viruses or other damaging components. Where individual products are subject to additional warranties or guarantees given by their manufacturers, you are responsible for applying for the warranty in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Such warranties are not enforceable against us, but only enforceable against the manufacturer. All ‘Goods’ ordered will be ordered to the exact sizes as provided via our buying system. We cannot accept any liability should any product ordered not fit due to any errors in the measurements provided.This does not affect your statutory rights with respect to Goods purchased from us.
DELAY OR FAILURE TO PERFORM
Ecarpets shall not be liable to you if we are prevented or delayed in the performing of any of our obligations to you if this is due to any cause beyond our reasonable control including (without limitation): extreme weather conditions, explosion, fire or accident; war or civil disturbance; strike, industrial action or stoppages of work; any form of government intervention; a third party act or omission; failure by you to give us a correct delivery address or notify us of any change of address.
