Terms & Conditions

TERMS & CONDITIONS

This website ("Our Site" or "Site") and related services (collectively, the Site and services are referred to as the "Services") are made available to you in accordance with the following terms and conditions (the "Terms and Conditions"). Stores Specialists, Inc. ("SSI") reserves the right to modify these Terms and Conditions from time to time without notice. By accessing Our Site and availing of the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully before placing your order on www.trunc.ph®.

GENERAL

Our Site is an online marketing platform where various merchants, (the "Merchant/s") offer products to, and transact with, users of the Services. SSI may also act as the Merchant/s for selected products. Merchant/s may also refer to a party other than SSI. Orders placed on Our Site and shipped within or to the Philippines will be facilitated and fulfilled by the Merchant/s. SSI, as the platform operator, will merely facilitate payment on behalf of the Merchant/s and provide all relevant services necessary to fulfill the orders of the users. For the avoidance of doubt, the contract of sale of each user shall be with the Merchant/s only. Philippine taxes will be applied to your order, where applicable.

REGISTRATION & ACCOUNT TERMS AND CONDITIONS

You warrant that all information that you provide on this Site are true, accurate, current and complete, and the billing and payment details provided are valid and correct.

To the extent that the information you provide constitutes personal information under applicable data privacy laws, by completing your registration, you shall be deemed to consent to the use of your personal information as may be necessary to process and fulfill your order, as well as to inform you of information relating to your registration on this Site. See our Privacy Policy for more details about this.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, and for restricting access to your account. You are solely responsible for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to notify SSI immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or breach of security.

PURCHASE OF PRODUCTS

The products are sold by the Merchant/s and SSI, as the platform operator, merely provides the Site and Services. All orders shall be deemed accepted and be irrevocable and unconditional upon placement in the Site. Each order accepted shall be governed by the contract of sale entered into directly and only between you and the Merchant/s.

The Merchant/s shall be entitled to process such orders without your further consent and without any further notice to you.


Liquor Products

Liquor products are only available for individuals who are of legal age (18 years old and above). By purchasing liquor products, the Customer guarantees that s/he is of legal age and would be asked to present a valid government ID upon delivery. Minors (below 18 years old) are strictly prohibited from purchasing such beverages containing alcohol.

COLORS AND SELECTION

We make every effort to display the colors of our products included on this Site as accurately as possible. Because the colors that you see depend on your monitor, we do not guarantee that your monitor’s display of any color is accurate.

The selection of items online often varies from the items featured in our stores and in our store advertisements. We operate on a first-come, first-served basis policy. Supplies of items featured online are not subject to rain checks.

SSI takes extra measures to provide you with accurate information on products that are offered on Our Site, based on information provided to us by the Merchant/s. SSI does not guarantee and makes no representation or warranty that all the information is error-free, accurate, current or complete.

PRICING

All prices posted on the Site are inclusive of applicable Philippine taxes and may be subject to delivery charges. All charges are stated in Philippine Peso unless otherwise stipulated.  We reserve the right to amend the prices at any time without giving any reason or prior notice.

All orders shall be paid in full at the time of ordering using any of the available payment options supplied by SSI on the Site. The Merchant/s will not be bound to supply the order until SSI has received cleared funds in full. All credit card payments will be received and processed via our payment gateways or providers of choice.

To the best of our abilities, we try to ensure that the prices posted on the Site are accurate, but this does not warrant that the pricing is always correct. Should your order have an error in price, we reserve the right to cancel your order at any point and notify you and refund to you in full the amount paid.

PAYMENTS

Payment for your products must be made via Credit Card, PayPal or GCash or other payment methods that we may offer and announce in the future.

The full payment price, including delivery charges and any additional charges for services you may have ordered, will be debited from your card/account.

You confirm that the credit or debit card being used is not stolen, simulated, or a fraudulent account. All credit or debit cardholders are subject to validation checks and authorization by the card issuer. If the issuer of your card refuses to authorize payment, we will not accept your order and we will not be responsible for any delay or non-delivery and we are not obliged to inform you of the reason for the refusal. You may contact your issuing bank for more information.

We reserve the right to ask for photos of your credit or debit card and your valid government-issued ID, or any other document to verify your online payment details at any time before delivery of your orders.

The products you have ordered shall be delivered to your specified address and shall be subject to shipping and handling charges as set out in the Site. Order Notifications will be sent to your email so make sure you provide a valid email address.

The Merchant/s will make every reasonable effort to deliver your orders to you within the delivery timeframe stated on the Site, but you acknowledge that while stock information on the Site is updated regularly, it is possible that in some instances a product may become unavailable between updates.

All delivery timeframes given are estimates only and delays can occur.

For the avoidance of doubt, an order which includes products from more than one (1) Merchant/s will be delivered within the delivery timeframe of each Mechant/s stated in the Site.
