This Refund & Return Policy governs the conditions, timeframes, and administrative procedures under which financial reimbursements or product replacements are issued for transactions completed via www.pristineurn.com. Our statutory frameworks are structured to align fully with corporate transparency mandates and consumer protection laws within Canada, the United States and the European Union.
1. Statutory Right of Withdrawal (14-Day Framework)
In full compliance with the European Union Consumer Rights Directive and equivalent consumer protection standards across our international target markets, consumers possess a statutory right to cancel their purchase contract without providing justification.
- Exercise Period: You have the right to withdraw from the purchase contract within fourteen (14) days from the calendar day on which you, or a designated third party (excluding the transit carrier), takes physical possession of the ordered items.
- Notification Procedure: To formally exercise this right, you must issue an unequivocal written declaration to our customer support desk via our official email address: minimalist@pristineurn.com.
2. Logistical Returns & Regional Facilities
For standard, non-defective returns requested within the 14-day withdrawal period, items must be returned to our specific regional handling facilities to ensure structured, secure processing.
- United States Consignments: Customers residing within the United States must direct their authorized returns to our designated US logistics facility. (Please contact support to obtain the precise facility routing documentation prior to dispatch).
- United Kingdom & European Consignments: Customers residing within the UK or European territories must direct their authorized returns to our designated European logistics hub. (Please contact support to obtain the precise facility routing documentation prior to dispatch).
- Return Conditions: Returned goods must be sent back in their original condition, unused, and in their original packaging. The customer remains responsible for securing safe return transit and covering direct shipping costs associated with the return, unless explicitly authorized otherwise by our administration.
3. Damaged, Flawed, or Defective Goods Protocol
We maintain rigorous operational oversight over our inventory and quality control pipelines. If a premium vessel is found to be structurally flawed or suffers damage during transit, we provide a streamlined remediation process that minimizes consumer burden:
- Reporting Requirement: The customer must report any structural faults or transit damage within fourteen (14) days of delivery by emailing minimalist@pristineurn.com.
- Evidentiary Documentation: To validate the claim, the customer must provide clear photographic or video evidence demonstrating the specific damage, defect, or flaw.
- Remediation Resolution: Upon administrative verification of the provided evidence, we will promptly process a complete financial refund or dispatch a premium replacement item. Under this specific defect framework, the consumer is not required to undergo the administrative burden of returning the physically damaged item to our facilities.
4. Transit Delays & Non-Delivery Adjustments
We utilize trusted global transit networks, including premium lines provided by DHL, FedEx, and UPS Priority, with a standard delivery timeframe of five (5) to twelve (12) business days to America and Europe.
- Automated Tracking: Real-time tracking updates are automatically sent to your registered email address at critical operational milestones: initial shipment from our warehouse, arrival at regional sorting hubs, and when out for local courier delivery.
- Investigation and Settlement: If a shipment fails to arrive within our stated timeframe due to customs or transport delays, we will immediately initiate an official non-delivery investigation with the carrier. Based on the formal findings, if the consignment is verified as lost, we will issue either a full refund or a product replacement within seven (7) business days.
5. Settlement & Refund Processing Methods
All approved financial reimbursements are processed systematically and returned exclusively to the original payment instrument utilized during checkout.
- Supported Payment Channels: Financial refunds are credited back securely through our Stripe-integrated checkout—including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and other authorized payment profiles.
- Processing Windows: Once an administrative refund approval is issued, please allow standard banking windows (typically three [3] to seven [7] business days) for the respective financial institutions to reflect the credit on your statement.
