Site Security

Every order is subject to a security check. These checks are carried out to protect both you and us against fraudulent transactions. Therefore all information entered by you must match the information held by the card issuer. Supplying incorrect or incomplete information will result in a delay in processing your order. If we are unable to confirm the identity of a customer we may carry out further security checks that may delay the processing of your order. As the supplier we reserve the right not to supply goods if we are unable to reach a satisfactory conclusion to a security check.

We may on occasion ask you to fax, post or email further proof of identity. We may on occasion ask the customer to supply their credit/debit card details to carry out a further security check.

If you suspect your card has been used fraudulently on our website please contact your card issuer immediately and notify us of the occurrence on 0141 440 1999.

Our payment processors use the latest in SSL technology, giving you greater peace of mind and absolute security. In the payment pages the padlock will appear in the Status Bar indicating that you have entered a secure area. At this point all the information exchanged from your (The Customer) computer to ours (Buchanan Clinic) is heavily encrypted, and guarantees that no one has unauthorised access to your details.

Your information is not stored on an Internet active computer so a third party cannot access your details. This system is the safest way to buy and is safer than passing your details over the phone lines and at least as safe as passing your card over a shop counter.

Cookies are used on this site, but simply to add functionality to the shopping cart.

We do not send marketing emails to personal email addresses where the recipient is not a customer or has not registered an interest in receipt of newsletter or special offers.

Our Privacy Policy explains in detail our policies and practices in respect of data protection and use of information.

Delivery Address

In conjunction with our security policy we only supply products to the cardholders address as standard. If your wish the item to be sent to an address other than that of the card address please contact us via email [email protected]. Entering an address into the site when it is not the registered address of the card may subject your order to a delay.

Generally we will accept two forms of identification showing the card address to allow an order to go to an alternative residential address. We will deliver to an alternative business address providing we can verify details.

All products and services are subject to availability and we give no guarantee in this respect.

Product Terms and Conditions

If you apply for a product or service detailed on this Web Site, these Terms and Conditions should be read in conjunction with any other terms and conditions which relate to any such product or service. In the event of any contradiction between these Terms and Conditions and the specific terms and conditions relating to such product or service, the latter shall prevail. For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions, product(s) and service(s) shall include, without limitation, any warranty, insurance or financial service.

Goods Faulty on Arrival or in use

Your product or service purchased is/are covered by manufacturers' warranty or guarantee as applicable and set out in the relevant product information. All attempts should be made to reasonably allow Underground Graphics or the supplier to attempt to repair any problems identified.  In order to investigate any such issue we may ask that the goods be returned for inspection.

Goods Damaged in Transit

You should pay attention to and make sure that you inspect the product on delivery. Any damage including to the packaging must be noted by you with the deliery agent on receipt. Underground Graphics or the supplier if sent direct to the customer on our behalf will be responsible for reasonably prompt repair of any damage.

Accepting Delivery of Goods

If your order is delivered by courier be aware that when you sign most couriers include a caveat where your signature means the delivery was 'received in good condition'.  Should fault later be found this makes it difficult to process a claim.  You should check goods on arrival and in case of damage to the packaging or goods note this on the acceptance form or refuse the delivery.  If it is not possible to check goods on arrival they should be signed as UNCHECKED and any damage found brought to our attention within 1 working day.

Return of Goods

The cost of returning goods found to be faulty will be refunded a rate agreed by telephone or email at the time the return is accepted.  The cost of returning goods no longer wanted or ordered in error will be bourne by the buyer.

Delivery Policy

Buchanan Clinic will ensure that products or services are delivered promptly and on time, in line with the product and / or service information supplied during the order process. However as with most service and product suppliers acts of God or unforeseen circumstances may prevail however Underground Graphics and our suppliers will keep you informed of any undue delay.  In cases where items are delivered to an address outside of the United Kingdom the buyer is responsible for determining if there are, and making payment for, any import or duty charges levied by the receiving country.

In cases where an item goes missing during transit it is our policy to follow the terms laid down by the claims process of your chosen carrier such as UPS or Royal Mail. No refund or replacement will be issued before the carrier has investigated the issue and reported their findings nor will such be issued where the carrier reports that the item was delivered successfully.

Goods Lost in Transit

Occasionally goods are lost in transit.  If your order does not arrive promptly you must inform us within 10 days of your order being shipped.

Refund Policy

Should you require a refund you must return the goods in their original packaging, unopened and in resalable condition within 14 days of purchase. It is the buyer's responsibility to cover the costs of returning goods. It is strongly recommended that returns are made by an insured, tracked service such as Royal Mail Special Delivery or Courier. Any free gifts included with your delivery must also be returned. Your refund will be processed immediately on receipt of the returned goods. Products made by special order or to custom specification cannot be refunded.  Buchanan Clinic will refund a reasonable cost of return only in cases where there has been a manufacturing error or the incorrect goods have been sent.
