Terms of service

Terms & conditions

The following terms and conditions (“Terms”) apply to all pre-orders. When placing a pre-order you have understood and accepted these Terms.

The completion of our product development process and successful shipping of all pre-buy orders is dependent on sufficient backing from our pre-order campaign and fundraising process. Hence, Nuwa Pen cannot guarantee that the products will be delivered in all cases. If we are unable to deliver, you will be entitled to reimbursement of your payments in accordance with section 2 in these Terms.

These Terms have priority in case of contradiction with any other terms, descriptions, agreements, or understandings between you and Nuwa Pen. Nuwa Pen explicitly rejects any terms deviating from the following Terms unless otherwise agreed upon and confirmed in writing.

1 PRE-ORDERS, PAYMENT, AND DELIVERY

The prices for pre-orders are stated on the Nuwa Pen website. Nuwa Pen reserves the right to change prices at any time.

Complete payment is due upon placing the order. Shipping costs are included in the purchase price, though the method of shipping will be chosen at Nuwa Pen’s discretion. Additional costs for customs duties, value-added tax (VAT), and other fees or taxes in the country of destination may apply.
