2. Preparation and shipping times
If the order request is received before 1 p.m. on a business day, it will be shipped that same day. If the order request is received after 1 p.m. on a business day, it will be shipped the following day, provided that it is a business day.
Deliveries are made during business hours, from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., depending on the transport company, the courier route, and the country.
3. Tracking your order
You will receive an email with your purchase confirmation and a tracking code for your package, which you can use on our shipping company's website to check the status of your order.
You can also log in to our website with the username and password you used to place your order, and access it to find out all the details and the tracking number from the transport agency.
If you do not receive your product within the estimated time frame, please contact our customer service department via email hello@apricotte.com and we will help you resolve the issue.
4. Returns
Users who purchase products through the Website may terminate the contract without having to justify their decision within 14 calendar days.
To exercise this right of withdrawal, the User must notify Apricotte of their decision by sending an email to hello@apricotte.com with the order number and indicating"return" in the subject line of the email.
For free returns within mainland Spain, APRICOTTE's customer service team will ask you to confirm your details before creating a prepaid label, so you can drop off your package at any Correos location.
Regardless of the means chosen to communicate their decision, Users must clearly and unequivocally express their intention to withdraw from the purchase contract. To comply with the withdrawal period, it is sufficient for the communication unequivocally expressing the decision to withdraw to be sent before the corresponding period expires.
In the event of withdrawal, Apricotte.com will refund the User all payments received, excluding shipping costs.
If shipping was free for a purchase over €99, but after returning some of the items, the total paid by the customer is not equal to or greater than that amount, the customer will be responsible for the shipping costs. For example, if the customer purchased two pairs of glasses and wanted to return one, resulting in a total amount of less than €99, the amount corresponding to the shipping costs paid when purchasing only that item will be deducted from the refund.
Apricotte.com will refund the User using the same payment method used by the User to make the initial purchase transaction. This refund will not incur any additional costs for the User. However, Apricotte.com may withhold the refund until it has received the products or items purchased. TheUser may return or send the products to Apricotte at:
Apricotte Vision LLC
18 Cidro Street – Unit 2C,
28044 Madrid
And you must do so without undue delay and, in any case, no later than 14 calendar days from the date on which Apricotte.com was informed of the decision to withdraw.
Once the refund process has been completed, you will receive a confirmation email.
