For our customers’ convenience, the Website may include links to other websites or material beyond our control. Please be aware that we are not responsible for such websites or material, and we do not review or endorse them.

8. Orders
All orders are subject to acceptance and availability. If the ordered items are unavailable, the User will be notified by email (or by other means if no email address has been provided) and can choose to wait for the product to become available or cancel the order.
Any order placed by the User will be treated as an offer to purchase our goods or services, and we reserve the right to reject such offers at any time. The User acknowledges that the automatic confirmation of the order does not constitute our acceptance of the offer to purchase goods or services advertised on the Website. The contract between us and the User will be completed when:
(i) payment is received for the order; or
(ii) we dispatch the goods or begin the services, whichever is later, at which point an email will be sent to the User confirming that the contract has been concluded (“Shipping Confirmation”).
The contract relates only to those goods or services whose dispatch is confirmed in the Shipping Confirmation.
We take all reasonable care to keep your order and payment details secure. In the absence of negligence on our part, we will not be liable for any loss suffered if a third party gains unauthorized access to any data you provide when accessing or ordering from the Website.
Products sold on the Website are not intended for resale or distribution. We reserve the right to cancel orders and suspend accounts that we believe are ordering products in breach of this condition.
At checkout, the customer can choose between two delivery methods offered by Barriguitas: in-store pickup – free of charge, or home delivery.
If the User chooses home delivery, they are responsible for the products once delivered to the address specified at the time of order. We are not responsible for errors in the delivery address provided or for failure to collect the products at the specified delivery address.
Nonetheless, the risk of loss or damage to the products passes to the User only upon delivery at the specified address.
Barriguitas relies on a third-party shipping service to deliver its orders, dispatching the product(s) during the carrier's normal operating hours, to the address provided by the customer.
The estimated delivery time varies depending on the destination country.
Delivery times may be subject to delays during peak order periods, such as sales season, Christmas, Black Friday, and others.
Shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer, with the amount calculated automatically during the checkout process based on the number of items, their weight and dimensions, and the destination address, according to a pre-defined rate table:

Delivery is deemed completed upon signature of the delivery receipt at the agreed address.
9. Exchange or Cancellation Rights
As required by law, Barriguitas allows the return or exchange of items, provided that they have not been used by the customer and are in the same condition as when they were sent.
Requests for exchange or return must be clearly submitted by email to apoioaocliente@barriguitas.com.pt within 14 days of receiving the order.
Once we receive the item(s) at our facilities, a careful inspection will be carried out, and the return/exchange will only be accepted if the following conditions are met:
a) The product(s) show no signs of use or handling;
b) The product(s) retain their original features and intact tags;
c) The product(s) are complete and sent with all materials included in the original order.
Any request for return or exchange must include the order number and proof of defect, if applicable.
Refunds will be issued through the original payment method within 14 business days or through another agreed method with the customer.
Shipping costs are the customer's responsibility and are not refundable.
In cases of returns due to defects or other non-conformities with the ordered products, Barriguitas will cover the initial shipping costs and the return/exchange process.
If a returned product does not meet the eligibility requirements under the conditions described above, the customer will be informed of the refusal, and the product(s) will be sent back to the original delivery address, at the customer's expense.
10. Prices and Payment
Prices displayed on the Website include VAT at the applicable legal rate.
Prices are correct at the time of entry into the system. However, we reserve the right to change prices at any time without prior notice (except for orders for which an Order Confirmation has already been sent).
If the price on the confirmation page is incorrect and this error is discovered before we accept the order as per clause 9, we are not obliged to sell the goods at the incorrect price. We always aim to ensure that prices are accurate, but errors may occur. If we discover a pricing error in your order, we will inform you as soon as possible and you can choose to proceed at the correct price or cancel. If you choose to cancel and have already paid (but the goods have not yet been shipped), a full refund will be issued.
The User confirms that the chosen payment method is managed by them, from the options provided by Barriguitas: bank reference (Multibanco), credit card, MBWay, Google Pay, and Apple Pay.
We reserve the right to await payment within 24 hours. If payment fails, you will be notified via the email address provided.
If you do not want us to retry the payment, please cancel your order before processing.
Promotional codes may only be used under the terms under which they were issued, which may include conditions such as user eligibility and maximum order value. Users should review those terms before ordering, as we reserve the right to reject or cancel orders that do not comply with those terms, even if your card has been charged.
If there is any inconsistency between the terms under which the promotional codes were issued and these Terms, the terms of the promotional codes shall prevail. You can obtain a copy of the promotional code terms by contacting us via email or phone.
