We have made every possible effort to guarantee that all colors and images are as accurate as possible to the actual and physical product.
Artem reserves the right to correct any errors or alter any content without prior notification.
Formation of Contract
Please note that neither the Terms and Conditions nor the information presented on the website should be interpreted as offers for purchase. It is essential to understand that a binding contract between us is established only upon the successful delivery of the items to the specified address you provided.
- To initiate an online purchase, kindly follow the platform’s guidelines accordingly. Subsequently, you will receive an order confirmation. However, it is important to be aware that receiving an order acknowledgment does not imply automatic approval of your order by our company.
- Our acceptance of your order occurs when the items are delivered to the designated delivery address, accompanied by a corresponding email notification.
- The contractual coverage solely applies to the items we deliver to you. Please be advised that your order may arrive in multiple parcels and at different times.
Pricing and Payment
Although we work hard to ensure accuracy, there may occasionally be mistakes in the information, descriptions, and pricing on our site. We retain the right to cancel your purchase before delivery if there is a mismatch in the price for a product you have ordered. You may be sure that we will email you as soon as a situation like this arises. If you’ve already paid for your order, our return policy guarantees that you’ll get a complete refund.
Before confirming your purchase, the platform will give you a thorough overview of the expenses, including shipping charges and any applicable value-added taxes (VAT). Please be aware that, unless otherwise specified, our platform only accepts payments in Philippine Pesos.
It is crucial to realize that even after we have confirmed your order, we are not required to complete it if pricing on the platform is incorrectly listed.
To use a payment card when necessary, you must have the appropriate authorization. The card or account in issue must have enough money on it to finish paying us. Please be aware that until payment has cleared, we will not begin shipment. Our chosen payment service provider processes credit card payments; if necessary, they may do a credit check and provide different payment options. Your payment information is neither saved nor accessed by Artem as a result of the payment processing being handled by reputable and trustworthy third-party platforms.
After payment authorization, you confirm that the card is yours, that you are the rightful owner of the card, and that you have the money or credit to pay for the item by clicking the “Checkout” button. Before sending the goods, we could check the payment information you supplied.
All orders are subject to availability and approval. Any order may be rejected or canceled by us at its sole discretion.
