Our Rights

Surrey Art School reserves the right to modify or withdraw (either temporarily or permanently) any amount of the website with or without prior warning.

If modifications are made without prior notification to our customers, it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that they are aware of such changes, and by continuing to purchase affected goods you are expressing your acceptance of these changes.

Suitability for Use

Whilst Surrey Art School take good care to maintain the highest of standards of quality in their products, it is the customers responsibility to ensure that the goods purchased are suitable for their particular requirements and that the goods arrive in an acceptable condition. Some of our products are made from natural substances whose behaviour can vary in different environments. Their structure can also vary according to the process used in their assembly. Surrey Art School strive to maintain consistency and continuity in these matters and in no circumstances will entertain claims for the value of work alleged to have been adversely affected by use of any our products which prove to be unsatisfactory to the user. Our liability is therefore confined to the value of the goods alone.

Surrey Art School will aim to minimise risk of damage to products in transit through wrapping and packing as securely as possible. There are rare occurrences when damage is incurred to orders in transit, and care must always be taken to open parcels so as to avoid spillages, further damage to goods and/or damage to other property (carpets/clothing etc). Damage caused as a result of ill considered parcel-opening methods will not be compensated for by Surrey Art School.

Description of Products

We will take all reasonable care to ensure that all details, descriptions and prices of Products appearing on the Website are correct at the time when the relevant information was entered onto the system. Colour swatches that appear online will give a rough indication of the colour of the art supply listed, however due to the differing settings of computer monitors it is impossible to rely 100% on the accuracy of the image as viewed on screen. It is the risk of the purchaser to order unfamiliar colours, and the costs of any returns are the responsibility of the buyer if the actual colour is not appropriate for the customer's requirements. Although we aim to keep the Website as up to date as possible, the information including Product Descriptions appearing on this Website at a particular time may not always reflect the position exactly at the moment you place an order. We cannot confirm the price of a Product until your order is accepted by us. We reserve the right to alter prices at any time. In the unlikely event that a price has been entered incorrectly on the website we will contact you as soon as possible to inform you of the correct price. You are under no obligation to continue with the order.

Gift Vouchers

Gift vouchers can be exchanged for all goods and eligible classes sold on the Surrey Art School website. Gift vouchers are non-transferrable to events ticketed by other companies or venues in collaboration with Surrey Art School.

To redeem Gift Vouchers online please enter the code which appears on front of the voucher, in the "gift or discount code" field.

Gift vouchers may not be exchanged for cash.

If your order’s value is less than the value of the gift vouchers you are using as payment, then a credit of the difference will be issued on your voucher for use as payment on subsequent orders.

Once you have given us the number of your gift voucher in relation to a payment of an order that gift voucher has been used and you will not be able to use the voucher again. For this reason we advise that you destroy all redeemed vouchers to avoid confusion.

If your gift vouchers have become accidentally damaged or lost, please contact us with details of the original purchase (date/postcode or customer number of purchaser) and we will be able to issue you duplicates.

If you decide to return the items you purchased with your gift vouchers, you will not receive a cash refund. A credit note will be issued on your account for subsequent orders. As with all returns, if you received the item in good condition but have changed your mind, it is the responsibility of the customer to secure a safe return and that the item/s is/are received by Surrey Art School in a saleable condition. If a secure return is unsuccessful then you may not receive a full refund/credit for the goods.

Gift vouchers are valid for 18 months from date of issue. At the end of the expiry period we will not refund any balance remaining and we will invalidate the card.

We reserve the right to amend the gift voucher terms and conditions from time to time, where we consider it reasonable and necessary to do so.
