Conclusion of Sales and Availability of Stock

Bird Deterrent Specialists may accept or reject any orders placed, at its discretion. An order may be accepted or rejected, based upon the availability of Goods, correctness of the information relating to the Goods (including, but without limitation, the Price of Goods), as well as the receipt of payment or payment authorisation by Bird Deterrent Specialists for the Goods.

Please note that Bird Deterrent Specialists will indicate as to whether or not your order has been accepted, by delivery of the Goods to you, or by granting you permission to collect the Goods. It is at this point of exchange of Goods from Bird Deterrent Specialists to you, that the Agreement of Sale between you and Bird Deterrent Specialists will come into effect, hereafter referred to as the “Sale”, irrespective of any communication received from Bird Deterrent Specialists stating that your order or payment has been confirmed. Indication of the rejection of any order, for whatever reason, will take place in the form of cancellation of the order by Bird Deterrent Specialists. In this instance, Bird Deterrent Specialists will refund the amount paid by you for such Goods, as soon as possible thereafter.

Should you wish to cancel your order, you may do so as long as it is done prior to delivery of the goods, and within 24 (twenty-four) hours of placing the order. After the Goods have been delivered to you, or you have collected the Goods yourself, you may only cancel the Sale in accordance with our Returns Policy (incorporated herein).

If you have placed Goods in your “Shopping Basket” or “Cart” for purchase, but have not properly completed the purchase cycle, you will not have completed your order and, therefore, the Goods may either be removed from the “Shopping Basket” or “Cart” if and/or when stock is no longer available, or the price of the Goods may change without prior notice to you. Bird Deterrent Specialists cannot be held liable if such Goods are no longer available, or are no longer available at that specific price, if and/or when you return at a later stage to complete, or attempt to complete, the purchase cycle.

Bird Deterrent Specialists cannot guarantee the availability of stock, although we will endeavour to make an effort to monitor stock levels, and attempt to ensure that when stock is no longer available, that such stock is removed as a purchase option on the Website. When Goods are no longer available after placing an order, Bird Deterrent Specialists will notify you and you will be entitled to a refund of the amount paid by you for such Goods. In making use of this Website, you acknowledge that stock of all Goods on offer is limited, and that the pricing of such Goods may be subject to change at any time, without prior notice to you.

Payment

We are committed to providing secure online payment facilities. All transactions are done using the Payfast platform, which is secure and encrypted using appropriate encryption technology.

Payment can be made for Goods via –

Debit Card
Credit Card: Where payment is made by credit card, we may require additional information in order to authorise and/or verify the validity of payment. In such cases we are entitled to withhold delivery until such time as the additional information is received by us and authorisation is obtained by us for the amount payable. If we do not receive such authorisation, your order will be cancelled. You warrant that you are fully authorised to use the credit card supplied for purposes of paying for the Goods. You also warrant that your credit card has sufficient available funds to cover all the costs incurred as a result of the services used on the Website;
Direct Bank Deposit or Electronic Funds Transfer: if you pay via direct bank deposit or electronic funds transfer, payment must be made within 24 (twenty-four) hours of placing your order. Bird Deterrent Specialists will not accept your order if payment has not been received.

You may contact us via email at info@bds.org.za to obtain a record of your payment. We will also send you email communications about your order and payment. Once you have selected your payment method and you accept these Terms and Conditions, you will be directed to a link to a secure site for payment of the Goods.

Delivery of Goods

Bird Deterrent Specialists offers 2 (two) methods of delivery of Goods to you. You may elect delivery via:
Courier; or
Self-Collection.

Please see details of our Delivery Policy included within these Terms and Conditions.

Bird Deterrent Specialists will deliver the Goods to you as soon as reasonably possible, once your order has been accepted. The delivery period will, however, not exceed 30 (thirty) days from the date of receipt of your payment in full. If, for any reason, we are unable to deliver the Goods to you within this delivery period, Bird Deterrent Specialists will make contact with you to notify you. Should you wish to cancel your order, as a result, you will need to do so within 24 (twenty-four) hours of receipt of the notification. Upon cancellation, Bird Deterrent Specialists will reimburse you for any monies owing to you.

Bird Deterrent Specialists’ obligation to deliver a product to you will be considered to be fulfilled when we deliver the Goods to the physical address nominated by you for delivery of the order, or you collect the Goods from our offices. Bird Deterrent Specialists is not responsible for any loss, or unauthorised use of Goods, after the Goods have been delivered/collected.

Errors

Bird Deterrent Specialists will endeavour to provide accurate and detailed descriptions of Goods on the Website, as well as the availability, price and delivery charges thereof. However, should any errors of any kind be present on the Website, Bird Deterrent Specialists shall not be held liable for any loss, claim or expense relating to a transaction based on such an error, unless due to our gross negligence, and shall, at most, only be required to refund you for an amount already paid to us, or as per that which is stipulated within the Returns Policy.

Bird Deterrent Specialists shall not be bound by any incorrect information regarding our Goods displayed on any third party websites.

Vouchers & Coupons

Bird Deterrent Specialists may, from time to time, make physical or electronic vouchers (“Vouchers”) and promotional coupons or discounts (“Coupons”) available for use on the Website towards the purchase of Bird Deterrent Specialists Goods. Vouchers and Coupons can only be redeemed while they are valid and their expiry dates cannot be extended. More specifically:

Vouchers

Vouchers issued by Bird Deterrent Specialists are valid for the period stated thereon. If your Voucher has not been used within that period, it will expire.

Vouchers cannot be used to buy other Vouchers or Coupons. They do not accrue interest and are not refundable for cash once purchased. If your Voucher value is insufficient for the order you wish to place, you may make up the difference by paying via one of our other payment methods.

Bird Deterrent Specialists is not responsible for any harm due to the loss, unauthorised use or unauthorised distribution of a Voucher, after it has delivered the Voucher to you, or the email address nominated by you.

Coupons

There are two types of Coupons; a Coupon with a fixed amount of a discount, e.g. R100 off (“Fixed Coupon“), and a Coupon with a percentage discount, e.g. 10% off (“Percentage Coupon“).

Coupons are issued in Bird Deterrent Specialists’ sole discretion and we are entitled at any time to correct, cancel or reject a Coupon for any reason (including without limitation where a Coupon has been distributed in an unauthorised manner). Users do not have a right to Coupons, and Coupons cannot be earned. Coupons are issued under specific terms and conditions regulating to when and how they may be used.

As a general rule, and unless specified otherwise on the Coupon itself:

Each Coupon can only be used once;
Only one Coupon can be used per order;
Only one Coupon can be used on the Website per person per promotion/campaign;
A Coupon must be used at check-out on the Website – it cannot be used later on existing orders;
The value of the Coupon will be set off against the value of your “shopping basket” or “cart” and the balance remaining, if any, will be payable by you.

Coupons cannot be used to buy Vouchers or other Coupons, and cannot be exchanged or refunded for cash or credit. Bird Deterrent Specialists is not responsible for any harm due to the loss, unauthorised use or distribution of a Coupon.

If, for any reason, a Coupon does not reflect on the final amount due from you at check-out, you can contact us at info@bds.org.za to confirm if the Coupon is still valid. If Bird Deterrent Specialists confirms that the Coupon is still valid and you have already placed your order, you can choose whether to cancel the order and place it again with the Coupon, or you can use the Coupon on your next order within the limitations of the specific Coupon’s Terms and Conditions.

You may be required to submit the original communication containing the Coupon code, and any other information reasonably requested by Bird Deterrent Specialists, before you are able to use a Coupon.

Coupons issued by Bird Deterrent Specialists are valid for the period stated thereon. If your Coupon has not been used within that period, it will expire.

Bird Deterrent Specialists may, in its sole discretion, change any of these Terms and Conditions at any time. It is your responsibility to regularly check these Terms and Conditions and make sure that you are aware of the changes.

This Policy forms part of the Bird Deterrent Specialists Terms and Conditions and, therefore, words defined in the Terms and Conditions have the same meaning in this Policy, unless the context indicates otherwise. Nothing in this Policy is intended to limit your statutory rights in any way.

Preparing your Products for a Return

To ensure your request is processed as quickly as possible, you are responsible for the following when returning your products:

Package your products safely and securely for protection during transit;
Clearly mark your return reference number (where applicable) on the outside of the parcel; and
Include all accessories and parts that were sold with the product.

Failure to adhere to any of these requirements could delay the processing of your request or result in its decline altogether.

1. Unwanted Products

If we accidentally deliver the wrong product to you, or if the product is not as described on the Website, please notify us and we will collect the product from you at no charge. If the product is missing any accessories or parts, you will need to follow the process set out in “Products Damaged on Delivery” below. Once we have inspected the product and validated your return, we will, at your choice, deliver the correct product to you as soon as possible (if the correct product is available); or credit your account with the purchase price of the product within 7 (seven) days of the return (or refund you if that is your preference).

2. Products Damaged on Delivery

Should a product be damaged, or missing any parts or accessories, at the time of delivery or collection, please notify us within 7 (seven) days of such delivery or collection by contacting Bird Deterrent Specialists on +27 21 797 7788 or info@bds.org.za

In the case of Damaged Goods, once you have notified us of the damage, Bird Deterrent Specialists will arrange to collect the product from you at no charge. Once we have inspected the product and validated your return, we will at your choice repair or replace the product as soon as possible (if such repair is possible, or we have the same product in stock to use as a replacement) or credit your account with the purchase price of the product (or refund you if that is your preference).

In the case of Missing Parts or Accessories, Bird Deterrent Specialists will arrange to deliver the missing parts or accessories to you at no charge

3. Defective Products

We do our best to ensure that the products we deliver to you are of a high quality, in good working order, and without defects.

What is a defect? A defect is a material imperfection in the manufacture of a product, or any characteristic of a product, which makes the product less acceptable than one would reasonably be entitled to expect in the circumstances.

The following will NOT be regarded as defects and will not entitle you to a return:

faults resulting from normal wear and tear;
damage arising from negligence, user abuse or incorrect usage of the product;
where there are signs of handling and/or repackaging.
damage arising from electrical surges or sea air corrosion;
damage arising from a failure to adequately care for the product;
damage arising from unauthorized alterations to the product;
where the specifications of a product, although accurately described on the Website and generally fit for its intended purpose, do not suit you; and

Standard Warranty & Product Guarantees

If you have received a product which turns out to be defective, or otherwise of poor quality, please notify us as soon as reasonably possible after you become aware of the defect or poor quality, but in any event within 7 (seven) days after delivery or collection of the product.

You can do so by contacting Bird Deterrent Specialists on +27 21 797 7788 or info@bds.org.za, and we will arrange to collect the product from you at no charge. Once we have inspected the product and validated your return, we will at your choice repair or replace the product (if such repair is possible or we have the same product in stock to use as a replacement) or credit your account with the purchase price of the product if that is your preference. If the repair or replacement takes longer than 14 (fourteen) days to complete, we will get in touch with you to see if you would rather receive a credit (or refund you if that is your preference).

Where there is no extended supplier warranty period, unfortunately we cannot facilitate returns that fall outside of the 7 (seven) day notice period.

4. Coupons

There are two types of Coupons: (1) a Coupon with a fixed amount of a discount, e.g. R100 off (“Fixed Coupon”), and (2) a Coupon with a percentage discount, e.g. 10% off (“Percentage Coupon”).

Where you have used a Fixed Coupon to pay for an order, and you or Bird Deterrent Specialists later cancels your order (or part thereof) prior to delivery of the relevant Goods, or you log a return of one or more Goods for a credit in accordance with the Returns Policy, the value of the Fixed Coupon will be deducted off the purchase price of the cancelled or returned Goods (as applicable), and we will credit your account for the balance, if any (or refund you if that is your preference). We will also provide you with a replacement Fixed Coupon of the same value as the original Fixed Coupon used. Bird Deterrent Specialists may in its sole discretion impose restrictions on the use of the replacement Fixed Coupon. For any subsequent cancellations or returns arising out of the same order, we will credit your account as normal with the value of the returned Goods (or refund you if that is your preference).

Where you have used a Percentage Coupon to pay for an order, and you or Bird Deterrent Specialists later cancels your order (or part thereof) prior to delivery of the relevant Goods, or you log a return of one or more Goods for a credit in accordance with the Returns Policy, the value of the discount received using the Percentage Coupon will be deducted off the purchase price of the cancelled or returned Goods (as applicable), and we will credit your account for the balance, if any (or refund you if that is your preference). We will also provide you with a replacement Fixed Coupon of the same value as the discount received using the original Percentage Coupon. Bird Deterrent Specialists may in its sole discretion impose restrictions on the use of the replacement Fixed Coupon. For any subsequent cancellations or returns arising out of the same order, we will credit your account as normal with the value of the returned Goods (or refund you if that is your preference).

5. Charges

If you return a defective product to us, but you fail to return all of the accessories and parts that were sold with that product, we are entitled (subject to applicable law) to refuse the return, only to replace the item that you did return, or to estimate the value of the missing accessories and parts and only to credit or refund you in respect of the returned item.

If you return a product that does not comply with this Policy, you may be liable to reimburse Bird Deterrent Specialists for the cost of collecting the product from you and the cost of having the product returned to you.

Bird Deterrent Specialists Delivery Policy

Bird Deterrent Specialists aims to deliver the purchased Goods to you at the place of delivery requested by you in your Order. Orders are only delivered to physical addresses; no PO Box addresses are allowed.

We endeavour to deliver within the time indicated by us at the time of your Order, but we cannot promise an exact date when you submit your Order or at the Confirmation of Order. We always aim to deliver within 5-7 working days (Standard delivery, and depending on the payment method used), but we cannot guarantee any firm delivery dates.

It is our intention to let you know if we expect that we are unable to meet our estimated delivery date, but, to the extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable to you for any losses, liabilities, costs, damages, charges or expenses arising out of late delivery.

On delivery of the Goods, you may be required to sign for delivery. You agree to inspect the Goods for any obvious faults, defects or damage before you sign for delivery. You must retain proof of receipt of the delivered Goods in case of future discussions with us about it.

Please note that it might not be possible for us to deliver to some locations.

We deliver in our standard packaging. Any special packaging requested by you is subject to additional charges.

All risk in the purchased Goods shall pass on to you upon delivery, except where delivery is delayed due to a breach of your obligations as per the Terms and Conditions, in which case risk shall pass at the date when delivery would have occurred but for your breach. From the time when risk passes to you, Bird Deterrent Specialists will not be liable for loss or destruction of the Goods.

You must take care when opening the Goods so as not to damage them, particularly when using any sharp instruments.

You shall ensure that you are ready for safe receipt of the Goods without undue delay at any time reasonably specified by us.

If you are not available to take delivery or collection, Bird Deterrent Specialists may leave a card giving you instructions on either re-delivery or collection from the carrier.

If delivery or collection is delayed through your unreasonable refusal to accept delivery, or if you do not (within 2 (two) weeks of our first attempt to deliver the Goods to you) accept delivery or collect the Goods from the carrier, we may (without affecting any other right or remedy available to us) do either or both of the following:

a) charge you for our reasonable storage fee and other costs reasonably incurred by us; or

b) no longer make the Goods available to you for delivery or collection, and notify you that we are immediately cancelling the applicable order, in which case we will refund to you or your account, as applicable, any money already paid to Bird Deterrent Specialists, less our reasonable administration charges, including charges incurred for attempting to deliver and return the Goods, as well as any storage fees (as mentioned above)

It is your responsibility to ensure that the Goods are sufficient and suitable for your purposes, and that they meet your individual requirements. Bird Deterrent Specialists does not warrant that the Goods will meet your individual requirements.

You acknowledge that the Goods are standard and not made bespoke to fit any particular requirements that you may have.

Delivery fees will be charged as stipulated upon making your purchase.

Please take note of the following:

Delivery fees and cash handling fees are non-refundable.
Bird Deterrent Specialists shall be entitled, at its sole discretion, to determine which areas it considers as Main Centres and Outlying Areas.
