2. ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS OF USE

Please read these Terms of Use carefully before you use the Website. By using the Website, or otherwise agreeing, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by these Terms of Use. Additional terms and conditions may apply to the purchase of products, such as shipping and return policies.

3. CHANGES TO THE TERMS OF USE & WEBSITE

We may revise and update these Terms of Use from time to time in our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them or otherwise notify you of the changes (or are effective on any other date we may specify), and apply to all access to and use of the Website thereafter. Your continued use of the Website following the posting of revised Terms of Use means that you accept and agree to the changes. If you do not agree to the revisions, you must stop using the Website.

4. ACCESSING THE WEBSITE

You may access and use the Website only as permitted by these Terms of Use. You are also responsible for ensuring that all persons who access the Website through your internet connection are aware of these Terms of Use and that they comply with them.

There is currently no charge to access and/or use the Website. However, you are responsible for obtaining and configuring (at your own cost) all necessary devices, computer programs, IT, platforms and telecommunications services required to access and/or use the Website.

We reserve the right to suspend, withdraw, alter, or amend all or any part of the Website, any service or material we provide on the Website, and any membership program, in our sole discretion without notice. We will not be liable if for any reason all or any part of the Website is unavailable at any time or for any period. We will try to give you reasonable notice or any suspension or withdrawal.

5. CREATING AN ACCOUNT

In order to access certain portions or features of the Website, or to purchase products or services, you may be required to create a profile or account. When you create an account or establish a profile, you may be asked to create a user ID and choose a password. You are responsible for keeping your user ID and password secure and you are solely responsible for all activities that occur using your user ID and password. If you know or suspect that anyone other than you knows your password or has accessed your account, you must promptly notify us using the contact details set out at Section 1.

6. CHIPPER LOYALTY PROGRAMME

If you have created an account and are logged into it, Chipper loyalty points are earned at the time of purchase when ordering on the Website (or by providing your account email address in-store). Account holders will automatically become Chipper members, and can then earn points by making a purchase as a member. Other ways to earn points include completing actions from the loyalty page when logged into your account, such as following us on Instagram or Facebook. These points will only be rewarded if you click through the respective “Ways to Earn Points” blocks on the loyalty page when logged into your account. Only one account can be rewarded points when logged in. Points are awarded when any order is marked 'paid'.

Loyalty programme members earn 1 point for every £1 spent, unless otherwise specified as a part of a limited-time promotion. All shipping costs and taxes are included in the order total when points are rewarded. Members do not earn points on purchases made with gift cards, nor money saved using discount codes or merchandise credit. We have the right to make the final decision on whether any product purchase qualifies for points.

All product purchases (including purchases of gift cards) earn 1 point for every £1 spent on the Website and in-store. Points earned will be rounded down to the nearest penny. We are unable to award points in €EUR, so any purchases made in € EUR will be converted to £GBP, and customers will receive 1 point per £1 spent.

Points will be attributed to your account within approximately forty-eight hours (48) hours of in-store purchase, or date of Website or store order shipment. If you do not identify yourself at the time of purchase, a manual adjustment can be made to add the points to your account for up to thirty (30) days from the actual purchase date by contacting Customer Support at connect@nobullproject.com.

When members return products to the store, or return Website Product purchases by mail, points previously attributed for that purchase will be deducted from the point balance of the account. If a member's point balance is insufficient to cover a deduction related to a return, the member's point balance may go negative, and any account reaching a negative balance is subject to be suspended from all further activity at our discretion. Members with a suspended account will need to contact Customer Support to seek reinstatement of their account at connect@nobullproject.com. If an account has a negative balance, all earned points will apply first to the negative balance.

Points are our property, have no cash value, and are not transferable to anyone else or any other account in any capacity for any reason. Unused points will expire twelve (12) months after they have been issued if there is no activity on the account within that twelve (12) month period. Points that remain on an account will also expire and are forfeited if our Chipper loyalty program is terminated, or if your account is closed. Points may not be combined among members. We may change the terms of the Chipper loyalty programme on notice to you.

Earning points as a member of the Chipper loyalty program unlocks tiers with greater benefits, such as free shipping and early access to select products. Benefits per tier are outlined on the loyalty page on the Website. Members are eligible to earn points to unlock higher tiers within a calendar year, which starts on 1st January each year. Members who unlock a new tier within a calendar year will be eligible to keep that higher tier the following calendar, but their points balance will reset to the lowest points threshold of that tier. For example, if a member earns over 500 points to unlock the tier 'Insider' within a calendar year, they will begin the following year on 1st January as an Insider. Their points balance will reset to 500 points at the start of that year, and they will then have the opportunity to earn 500 more points before 31st December that year to reach the 'Exclusive' tier. If they earn 0 points within that calendar year though, they will be downgraded to the 'Member' tier in the following calendar year on 1st January.

Members of the Chipper loyalty programme have the opportunity to earn rewards delivered as discount codes via email, which can be redeemed at checkout for specified products or collections.

You do not need to be a member of the Chipper loyalty programme to participate in the "Refer-A-Friend" programme and earn rewards for referring friends, or being a successful referral. These rewards are delivered as discount codes via email, which can be redeemed at checkout for specified Products or collections. Successful referrals are customers who complete their first purchase of £99 and over with a friend's referral link.

All rewards and associated discount codes expire after six (6) months. Members who fail to redeem their code within six (6) months may contact Customer Support at connect@nobullproject.com for a new code, referencing the account where they received the original reward.

The sites you can link to have their own separate terms and conditions and privacy policies, which we encourage you to review prior to using such sites.

18. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY

If we fail to comply with these Terms of Use, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill[, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen.

We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury resulting from our negligence or the negligence or our employees, agents of subcontractors and for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

Different limitations and exclusions of liability will apply to liability arising as a result of the supply of any products by us, which will be set out in our Terms of Sale.

The Website and its content are for domestic and private use only. You agree not to use the Website or its content for any commercial or business purposes, and we have no liability to you for any business losses, loss of profits or savings or anticipated profits or savings, loss of opportunity, loss or reputation, goodwill or business or any economic loss even if we are advised in advance of the possibility of such loss.

19. Other Important Terms

We may transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms of Use to another organisation. We will always tell you in writing if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the contract. You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these Terms of Use to another person if we agree to this in writing.

A contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms. Neither of us will need to get the agreement of any other person in order to end the contract or make any changes to these Terms of Use.
Each of the paragraphs of these Terms of Use operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these Terms of Use, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.

You and we agree that English law applies to these Terms of Use. If you are accessing this Website and live in an EU Member State, you also have the benefit of any protection afforded to you by the mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence. You can bring legal proceedings under these Terms of Use in the English courts, or the courts of the EU Member State in which you live.
