Terms & Conditions

This website is operated by Veragua CR. Throughout the site, the terms “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Veragua CR. By visiting our site and/or purchasing something from us, you engage in our “Service” and agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions. These Terms apply to all users of the site. If you do not agree to all of the terms, you may not access the website or use any service.

Any new features or tools added to the store are also subject to these Terms. We reserve the right to update or replace any part of these Terms by posting changes to this page; it is your responsibility to check periodically. Your continued use of the site following any change constitutes acceptance of that change. Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc., which provides the e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products to you.

Online Store Terms

By agreeing to these Terms, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state or province of residence, or that you have given us your consent to allow any of your minor dependents to use this site.

     
  • You may not use our products for any illegal or unauthorized purpose, nor may you violate any laws in your jurisdiction (including copyright laws).
  •  
  • You must not transmit any worms, viruses or any code of a destructive nature.
  •  
  • A breach or violation of any of these Terms will result in immediate termination of your Services.

We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason at any time. You understand that your content (excluding credit card information) may be transferred unencrypted and may involve transmissions over various networks and changes to conform to technical requirements; credit card information is always encrypted during transfer. You agree not to reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any portion of the Service without our express written permission.

Products & Materials

Certain products may be available exclusively online and in limited quantities, and are subject to return or exchange only in line with our Returns & Refunds policy below. We have made every effort to display the colors and images of our products as accurately as possible, but we cannot guarantee that your screen’s display of any color will be accurate. We do not warrant that any product will meet your expectations.

Gold — 14K & 18K

14K gold has a slightly softer / lighter tone than 18K gold. Product photos only show the 18K version. For a detailed comparison of the two karats and how they differ in tone, durability and care, please see our blog.

Diamonds

All diamonds used in a piece are lab-grown unless otherwise specified. Natural diamonds can be quoted upon request.

Color & display accuracy

Because every screen renders color differently, the finished piece may vary slightly in tone from the images shown online. This is normal for fine jewelry and is not considered a defect.

Pricing & Changes

Prices for our products are subject to change without notice. We reserve the right, at any time, to modify or discontinue the Service (or any part of it) without notice. We shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, price change, suspension or discontinuance of the Service.

Occasionally there may be information on our site that contains typographical errors, inaccuracies or omissions relating to product descriptions, pricing, promotions, offers, shipping charges, transit times or availability. We reserve the right to correct any errors and to change or update information, or cancel orders, if any information is inaccurate at any time without prior notice, including after you have submitted your order.

Orders & Account Information

We reserve the right to refuse any order you place with us. We may, in our sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household or per order, including orders placed under the same customer account, the same credit card, and/or the same billing or shipping address. If we change or cancel an order, we may attempt to notify you using the email, billing address or phone number provided at the time the order was made. We also reserve the right to limit or prohibit orders that appear to be placed by dealers, resellers or distributors.

You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase and account information for all purchases, and to promptly update your account information — including email address, credit card numbers and expiration dates — so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed.

Shipping

Once the order is placed, it will be shipped within the next 7 to 10 business days. For international orders, different taxes may apply depending on your country’s customs policy.

Any duties, import taxes or customs fees charged by the destination country are the responsibility of the recipient and are not included in the product price or shipping cost.

Returns & Refunds

Damages & issues

Please inspect your order upon reception and contact us immediately if the item is defective or damaged, or if you receive the wrong item, so that we can evaluate the issue and make it right.

You can always contact us with any questions at ale@veraguajewelry.com.

Optional Tools & Third-Party Links

We may provide access to third-party tools over which we neither monitor nor have any control. You acknowledge that we provide access to such tools “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, and we have no liability arising from your use of optional third-party tools. Any use of these tools is entirely at your own risk and discretion.

Certain content, products and services available through our Service may include materials from third parties, and third-party links may direct you to websites not affiliated with us. We are not responsible for examining or evaluating their content and are not liable for any harm related to the purchase or use of any third-party goods or services. Please review the third party’s policies carefully before engaging in any transaction; complaints regarding third-party products should be directed to that third party.

Comments & Submissions

If you send creative ideas, suggestions, proposals or other materials (“comments”), whether at our request or not, you agree that we may, at any time and without restriction, edit, copy, publish, distribute, translate and otherwise use them in any medium. We are under no obligation to keep any comments in confidence, to pay compensation for them, or to respond to them.

You agree that your comments will not violate any right of any third party, including copyright, trademark, privacy or other proprietary right, and will not contain unlawful, abusive or obscene material or any malware. You are solely responsible for the comments you make and their accuracy; we take no responsibility and assume no liability for any comments posted by you or any third party.

Warranties & Limitation of Liability

We do not guarantee that your use of our Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free, or that the results obtained from it will be accurate or reliable. The Service and all products delivered through it are provided “as is” and “as available” for your use, without any representation, warranties or conditions of any kind, either express or implied, including all implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, durability, title and non-infringement.

In no case shall Veragua CR, our directors, officers, employees, affiliates, agents, contractors, suppliers, service providers or licensors be liable for any injury, loss, claim, or any direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, special or consequential damages of any kind — including lost profits, lost revenue, lost savings, loss of data or replacement costs — arising from your use of any of the Service or any products procured using it. Because some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, in such jurisdictions our liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Indemnification & General Conditions

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Veragua CR and our affiliates, partners, officers, directors, agents, contractors, licensors, service providers, suppliers and employees from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of your breach of these Terms or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.

If any provision of these Terms is found unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the unenforceable portion shall be severed without affecting the validity of the remaining provisions. These Terms are effective unless and until terminated by either you or us; you may terminate at any time by ceasing to use our site. Obligations and liabilities incurred prior to termination survive termination.

These Terms, together with any policies posted by us on this site, constitute the entire agreement between you and us and govern your use of the Service. The failure of us to exercise or enforce any right or provision shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision. Any ambiguities shall not be construed against the drafting party.

Governing Law

These Terms and any separate agreements whereby we provide you Services shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Costa Rica.

Privacy Policy

This section describes how your personal information is collected, used and shared when you visit or make a purchase from our store. Your submission of personal information through the store is governed by this Privacy Policy.

Information we collect

When you visit the site, we automatically collect certain information about your device — including your web browser, IP address, time zone and some of the cookies installed on your device. As you browse, we also collect information about the pages or products you view, the websites or search terms that referred you, and how you interact with the site. We refer to this as “Device Information”, and we collect it using cookies, log files, and web beacons / tags / pixels.

When you make or attempt to make a purchase, we collect certain information from you, including your name, billing address, shipping address, payment information (including credit card numbers), email address and phone number. We refer to this as “Order Information”. In this policy, “Personal Information” means both Device Information and Order Information.

How we use your information

We use Order Information to fulfill orders placed through the site (processing payment, arranging shipping, and providing invoices or order confirmations), to communicate with you, to screen orders for potential risk or fraud, and — when in line with the preferences you have shared — to provide you with information or advertising relating to our products. We use Device Information to help screen for risk and fraud (in particular your IP address) and, more generally, to improve and optimize our site.

Sharing your information

We share your Personal Information with third parties who help us use it as described above. For example, we use Shopify to power our online store (see Shopify’s privacy policy) and Google Analytics to understand how customers use the site (see Google’s privacy policy; you can opt out here). We may also share Personal Information to comply with applicable laws and regulations, to respond to a lawful request, or otherwise to protect our rights.

Behavioural advertising

We use your Personal Information to provide targeted advertisements or marketing communications we believe may interest you. You can learn more about targeted advertising through the Network Advertising Initiative, and you can opt out via the Digital Advertising Alliance, or through the ad settings of platforms such as Facebook, Google and Bing.

We process your information to fulfill any contracts we have with you (for example, when you place an order) or otherwise to pursue our legitimate business interests. Please note that your information will be transferred outside of Europe, including to Canada and the United States. When you place an order, we will retain your Order Information for our records unless and until you ask us to delete it.
