Terms & Conditions

Welcome to the Cotton Emporium® Sweater, Cardigan, Dress online shop! We’re excited to offer our stylish, comfortable cotton clothing to you. Please read these Terms & Conditions carefully before using our site or making purchases.

Acceptance of Terms

By accessing this website and shopping with us, you agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions, whether you are a first-time or repeat customer. If you do not accept these terms, please do not use our site or place any orders.

Privacy Policy

We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. Please review our Privacy Policy to understand how we collect, use, and disclose information you provide to us.

Your Account and Orders

You must register and create an account to place orders on our site. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and may not share your account.

When you place an order, you are offering to purchase the item according to your order details, these Terms & Conditions, and the estimated delivery date and shipping rates presented at checkout. All orders are subject to product availability and our acceptance of your order.

You must be at least 18 years old or have parental consent to place an order on our site. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any order for any reason at any time before shipment. If your order is cancelled, you will be notified and issued a refund if payment has already been made.

Pricing and Sales Tax

The prices displayed on our website are quoted in U.S. dollars. Prices and availability are subject to change without notice. Sales tax will be added at checkout where required by law. You are liable for all taxes and customs duties that may be imposed on your order.

We strive to display colors and images of products as accurately as possible, but actual colors and styling may vary slightly due to screen differences and photography.

Promotions and Discounts

Site-wide promotions and discounts cannot be combined with other offers unless expressly stated. Promo codes must be entered at checkout to receive any advertised discount. We reserve the right to modify or end promotions at any time without notice.

Shipping and Delivery

We provide shipping cost estimates at checkout based on your address and preferred shipping method. Actual shipping costs may vary from estimates and will be charged to your original form of payment. We are not responsible for shipment delays due to incorrect or incomplete address information provided by you.

Shipping and handling times are estimates only and commence from the date of shipment, rather than the date of order placement. We are not liable for any losses, damages, or expenses resulting from delayed shipments.

You will be notified by email when your order ships. Please allow up to 7 business days for orders to be processed and shipped. During sales and peak seasons, expect additional processing time of 1-2 weeks.

Returns and Exchanges

We gladly accept returns and exchanges for most items within 30 days of the original ship date. Items must be returned in new, unused condition with original tags still attached. Customers are responsible for return shipping costs unless the return is a result of our error.

Exchanges are subject to product availability at the time of request. If your exchange cannot be fulfilled, you will be issued a refund. Sale items may be final sale and ineligible for return or exchange, so please review carefully before making selections.

Refunds are generally issued to the original payment method within 5-7 business days of receiving the return. You will receive a confirmation email when your return is processed.

Product Care Instructions

Many of our cotton items may shrink slightly if washed in hot water or dried using high heat. Please refer to the specific product page and tags for care instructions to prevent shrinking or damage, as we cannot accept returns or exchanges for items that have been improperly cared for.
