Throughout these Terms, the words “Kalakriti,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Kalakriti.

By accessing our website, creating an account, placing an order, or otherwise using our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms, along with our Privacy Policy, Shipping Policy and Refund & Exchange Policy, which form part of these Terms.

If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not use our website or purchase products from us.

1. ELIGIBILITY AND USE OF THE WEBSITE

For any unlawful or fraudulent purpose;

We reserve the right to restrict or terminate access to the website where we reasonably believe that these Terms have been violated or that the website is being misused, subject to applicable law.

2. OUR PRODUCTS

Kalakriti sells backpacks, bags, accessories and other products displayed on our website.

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that product descriptions, photographs, colours, dimensions and other information displayed on the website are accurate.

However:

Product colours may appear slightly different depending on your device or screen settings.
Minor variations may occur due to manufacturing processes, materials, lighting and photography.
Product dimensions and specifications may vary within reasonable manufacturing tolerances where applicable.
Product availability may change without notice.

Nothing in this section limits your statutory rights regarding products that are defective, deficient, materially different from what was advertised or otherwise covered by applicable consumer-protection law.

All products are subject to availability.

We reserve the right to:

Limit quantities available for purchase;

Applicable taxes and charges will be displayed during the purchase process where required.

Shipping charges, where applicable, will be displayed at checkout.

We reserve the right to change product prices, promotions and offers from time to time.

A price change after you have successfully placed an order will not affect the agreed price for that completed order, except where an order needs to be cancelled because of an obvious pricing or technical error.

5. ORDERS

When you place an order through our website, you are making a request to purchase the selected product(s).

After placing an order, you may receive an order confirmation by email, SMS or other communication.

An order confirmation acknowledges receipt of your order but does not necessarily mean that the order has been finally accepted in every circumstance.

We may cancel or decline an order where reasonably necessary, including where:

The product is unavailable;
There is an obvious pricing or product-description error;
We suspect fraudulent or unauthorised activity;
An order appears to have been placed for resale or unauthorised commercial purposes;
The information provided is materially inaccurate or incomplete;
There is a technical or payment-processing error; or
Cancellation is otherwise required or permitted by applicable law.

If we cancel an order for which payment has already been received, we will process the applicable refund in accordance with our Refund & Exchange Policy and applicable law.

6. CUSTOMER ACCOUNT

You may create an account on our website.

You are responsible for providing accurate and up-to-date information when creating and maintaining your account.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and should not knowingly share your password with another person.

Please notify us promptly if you believe your account has been accessed without your authorisation.

We may suspend or restrict an account where we reasonably believe that it is being misused, involved in fraudulent activity or being used in violation of these Terms, subject to applicable law.

7. PAYMENT

Payments for purchases made through our website may be processed through our third-party payment service provider, Cashfree Payments.

We do not intend to store complete payment-card information on our own systems where such information is processed directly by the payment provider.

If a payment fails, is reversed, is disputed or is identified as potentially fraudulent, we may delay, cancel or review the associated order, subject to applicable law.
