We are required to collect your name, address and contact details to process your order, and to ensure the maximum level of service can be achieved. Only very basic information is requested for the purpose of completing the transaction. We do not collect sensitive personal information about you. You can ask for a report on the details we hold about you at any time. We can email you all the information which we hold on you. If the details we hold are incomplete or incorrect, please advise us and we will correct them. The details we hold are for our own purposes only - we do not provide them to any other companies unless you consent to such sharing. Only the courier company we use may be given your phone number for ease of delivery in case of any problems. You can even request for this not to happen during the order process if you wish. We may use technology to track the patterns of behaviour of visitors to our site. This can include using a "cookie" which would be stored on your browser. You can usually modify your browser to prevent this happening. The information collected in this way can be used to identify you unless you modify your browser settings. Very rarely we may email you with details of featured products and offers. The emails will only relate to products we sell and in which, by virtue of having placed an order or registered with us, you have shown an interest. You will always be given the opportunity to refuse these emails in the future and be removed from our mailing list. We do not send random marketing emails to personal email addresses (spam).
WARRANTIES
- In the case of new products, if the manufacturer offers different terms and warranty periods, then this manufacturer's warranty will take precedence.
- If manufacturers offer extended warranty periods on new products, TTS will have no further liability after the expiration of their standard warranty. Any subsequent issues will be the responsibility of the manufacturers.
- Any misuse, abuse or alteration to goods once they have left TTS will invalidate the warranty.
- Before refund, faulty items will be thoroughly tested by our engineers. If found to be faulty upon testing, TTS will refund the delivery cost of such items. If however items are found to be in full working order as advertised on TTS's website, any costs will be at the customer's expense.
- All warranty claims are for replacement only. Credits and refunds do not apply for warranty claims.
ORDER CANCELLATION
- Where possible TTS endeavours to advise customers about the suitability of systems for either home or business use. TTS cannot however guarantee this service will always be available or appropriate and will therefore not be held responsible for customers ordering the incorrect equipment. Please call our advice line if unsure where we are happy to advise.
- TTS reserves the right to refuse the return of goods ordered in error. Such errors must be notified within 7 days of receipt of goods.
- In such incidences and if goods are dispatched before cancellation is received TTS reserves the right to charge a handling fee of 10% of the invoice amount to cover restocking, repackaging and delivery costs.
THE LEGAL STUFF
- For the purpose of recovering unpaid goods TTS may pursue appropriate permission to enter upon any premises where goods are stored to effect repossession.
- TTS cannot be liable to its customer for any failure to perform its obligations due to circumstances beyond its control (including but without limitation; strikes, industrial disputes, power supply delays/failure, adverse weather conditions, delays caused by external goods manufactures etc.) In such events TTS may elect (by written notice) to cancel agreements with the customer or seek extended time to reasonably compete its orders.
DISCLAIMER
- Every effort is made to ensure all details and information within illustrations, product specifications and services depicted within this website and other TTS documentation, are correct at the time of going to press. However, discrepancies may occur as a result of other manufactures altering goods, and therefore TTS cannot be held responsible for any omissions or errors. Any discrepancies will receive the full attention of TTS at all times.
