TERMS OF SERVICE

OVERVIEW

Welcome to North & Noel.

North & Noel is a trading name operated by Mavo Music AS, a company registered in Norway. The terms “we”, “us” and “our” refer to North & Noel and Mavo Music AS.

North & Noel operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products and services, in order to provide you, the customer, with a curated shopping experience (the “Services”).

Our store is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you.

These Terms of Service, together with any policies referenced herein, describe your rights and responsibilities when you use the Services.

Please read these Terms of Service carefully, as they contain important information about your legal rights and responsibilities.

By visiting, interacting with or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service or our Privacy Policy, you should not use or access the Services.

Nothing in these Terms limits any mandatory consumer rights available to you under applicable law.

SECTION 1 - ACCESS AND ACCOUNT

By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your place of residence, or that you have given consent for any minor dependants under your responsibility to use the Services.

To use certain parts of the Services, including purchasing products, you may be asked to provide information such as your email address, billing information, payment information and shipping information.

You represent that all information you provide is accurate, current and complete.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for activity carried out through your account.

You may not transfer, sell, assign or license your account to another person without our permission.

SECTION 2 - OUR PRODUCTS

We make reasonable efforts to display our products as accurately as possible.

However, colours, dimensions, print placement and product appearance may vary slightly from what is shown on your screen due to differences in displays, manufacturing processes and the nature of made-to-order production.

Many North & Noel products are produced individually after an order is placed.

Small variations between products do not necessarily constitute a defect.

All product descriptions, specifications, availability and designs may be updated or changed from time to time.

We reserve the right to discontinue products or limit availability in certain countries, regions or jurisdictions.

Nothing in this section limits your rights in relation to defective, damaged, incorrectly supplied or non-conforming goods under applicable consumer law.

SECTION 3 - ORDERS

When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase products from us.

An order is accepted when we confirm the order and successfully process the required payment.

Please review your order carefully before submitting it, including product, size, colour, quantity and delivery information.

Because many products are made to order, it may not be possible to cancel or modify an order once production has started.

If we are unable to accept or fulfil your order, or if we need to make a material change to it, we will attempt to contact you using the information provided with your order.

Returns, refunds and exchanges are governed by our Return & Refund Policy, subject always to any mandatory rights available under applicable law.

Products purchased through North & Noel are intended primarily for personal or household use unless otherwise agreed.

SECTION 4 - PRICES AND BILLING

Prices, discounts and promotions may change without notice.

The price charged will normally be the price displayed at the time your order is submitted and confirmed.

Depending on your location, prices may be displayed in your local currency.

Shipping costs, taxes, duties, customs fees and import charges may be shown separately where applicable.

Where required by law or the configuration of our store, applicable taxes may be included in the displayed price or calculated during checkout.

For international orders, additional customs duties, import taxes or fees may apply depending on the destination country. Unless stated otherwise during checkout, such charges may be the responsibility of the customer.

You agree to provide current, complete and accurate billing and payment information.

You confirm that you are authorised to use the payment method provided for your purchase.

SECTION 5 - SHIPPING AND DELIVERY

Orders are produced and shipped through our fulfilment partners.

Production and delivery times shown on our website or during checkout are estimates unless expressly stated otherwise.

Delivery may be affected by circumstances outside our reasonable control, including carrier delays, customs processing, weather events, public holidays, incorrect delivery information and other logistical disruptions.

We are not responsible for delays caused solely by circumstances outside our reasonable control, subject to any rights you have under applicable law.

Please ensure that your delivery address is accurate and complete before submitting your order.

Risk of loss or damage passes to you when the goods are delivered to you, except where applicable law provides otherwise.

Further information about delivery is available in our Shipping Policy.

SECTION 6 - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Our Services, including trademarks, brand elements, text, illustrations, graphics, photographs, product designs, videos, audio, website design and other content, are owned by or licensed to North & Noel and/or Mavo Music AS and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

Unless otherwise permitted by law, you may not reproduce, distribute, modify, republish, commercially exploit, store or transmit material from the Services without our prior written permission.

North & Noel names, logos, illustrations, product designs and other brand elements may not be used commercially without our prior written permission.

Shopify's trademarks and other third-party trademarks remain the property of their respective owners.

All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

SECTION 7 - OPTIONAL TOOLS

We may provide access to tools or services operated by third parties.

Such tools may be provided on an “as available” basis and may be subject to separate terms and privacy policies from the relevant provider.

We are not responsible for the operation of third-party services where responsibility legally rests with that third party.

Any new features, tools or resources introduced through the Services may also be subject to these Terms.

SECTION 8 - THIRD-PARTY LINKS

The Services may contain links to websites, platforms or services operated by third parties.

We are not responsible for the content, availability, accuracy, security or practices of third-party websites that are outside our control.

If you choose to access a third-party service, you should review that provider's applicable terms and privacy policies.

Nothing in this section affects any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

SECTION 9 - RELATIONSHIP WITH SHOPIFY

North & Noel is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you.

However, any sales and purchases you make in our Store are made directly with North & Noel.

By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree that Shopify is not the seller of products purchased from North & Noel.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Shopify is not responsible for claims arising solely from products sold by North & Noel.

Nothing in this section limits any rights or remedies that cannot legally be excluded.

SECTION 10 - PRIVACY POLICY

Personal information collected through the Services is processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Because our store is hosted by Shopify, Shopify also processes certain information in order to provide its platform and related services.

Information may also be processed by service providers involved in payments, fulfilment, shipping, analytics, customer support and other functions necessary to operate the store.

Please review our Privacy Policy for further information about how personal information is collected, used and protected.

SECTION 11 - FEEDBACK AND REVIEWS

If you submit reviews, suggestions, feedback, photographs or other content relating to North & Noel or our products, you confirm that you have the necessary rights to provide that material.

Where permitted by applicable law, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free right to use, reproduce and display such material for purposes relating to operating, improving and promoting North & Noel.

We may remove content that is unlawful, abusive, misleading, defamatory, infringing or otherwise inappropriate.

You remain responsible for content that you submit.

Nothing in this section transfers ownership of your original intellectual property to us beyond the rights reasonably necessary for the purposes described above.

SECTION 12 - ERRORS, INACCURACIES AND OMISSIONS

Information on the Services may occasionally contain typographical errors, inaccuracies or omissions relating to product descriptions, pricing, promotions, shipping charges, delivery estimates or availability.

We reserve the right to correct such errors and update information.

If an error materially affects an order you have already placed, we will handle the matter in accordance with applicable consumer law and, where appropriate, contact you before proceeding.

SECTION 13 - PROHIBITED USES

You may use the Services only for lawful purposes.

You may not use the Services to:

  • violate applicable laws or regulations;
  • infringe intellectual property or other rights;
  • distribute malicious software;
  • obtain unauthorised access to systems or accounts;
  • collect personal information unlawfully;
  • engage in fraud, impersonation or deceptive behaviour;
  • harass, threaten or abuse another person;
  • interfere with the security or operation of the Services;
  • scrape, extract or reproduce substantial portions of the Services in violation of applicable law or our rights; or
  • use automated systems in a manner designed to bypass technical restrictions or security measures.

We may restrict or terminate access where reasonably necessary to protect the Services, customers or our legal rights.

SECTION 14 - AUTOMATED AGENTS

Where automated or AI-based agents access or interact with the Services, they must comply with applicable laws, technical restrictions and security measures.

Automated systems must not conceal their nature for the purpose of bypassing security measures, CAPTCHAs, access restrictions or other safeguards.

We may restrict automated access where reasonably necessary to protect the Services and our customers.

SECTION 15 - TERMINATION

We may suspend or terminate access to the Services where you materially breach these Terms, misuse the Services, engage in fraudulent activity or create a security or legal risk.

Termination does not affect rights or obligations that arose before termination.

Sections which by their nature should continue after termination will remain effective.

SECTION 16 - WARRANTIES AND CONSUMER RIGHTS

We endeavour to provide accurate information and products that conform with their descriptions.

Except to the extent required by applicable law, we do not guarantee that access to the website will always be uninterrupted, error-free or continuously available.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any statutory guarantee, warranty, right or remedy that cannot legally be excluded or limited.

Consumers may have mandatory rights in relation to defective, damaged or non-conforming products regardless of anything stated elsewhere in these Terms.

SECTION 17 - LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, North & Noel and Mavo Music AS shall not be liable for indirect, incidental or consequential losses arising from use of the Services where such liability may lawfully be excluded.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where doing so would be prohibited by law.

In particular, nothing in these Terms limits mandatory consumer protections, liability for intentional misconduct, gross negligence, personal injury where liability cannot legally be excluded, or other rights that cannot lawfully be waived.

SECTION 18 - INDEMNIFICATION

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to be responsible for losses or claims resulting from your unlawful use of the Services, your material breach of these Terms or your infringement of another person's rights.

This provision does not impose liability on consumers beyond what is permitted by applicable law.

SECTION 19 - SEVERABILITY

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law or severed where necessary.

The remaining provisions will continue in effect.

SECTION 20 - WAIVER AND ENTIRE AGREEMENT

Failure by us to enforce a provision of these Terms does not constitute a permanent waiver of that provision.

These Terms, together with policies expressly incorporated into them, constitute the agreement governing use of the Services and purchases made through North & Noel.

Nothing in these Terms overrides mandatory rights granted by applicable law.

SECTION 21 - ASSIGNMENT

You may not transfer your contractual rights or obligations under these Terms where doing so would materially affect our rights without our consent, except where applicable law provides otherwise.

We may transfer our rights and obligations in connection with a legitimate transfer, restructuring or sale of our business, provided that this does not reduce mandatory consumer protections.

SECTION 22 - GOVERNING LAW

These Terms of Service and agreements relating to purchases from North & Noel are governed by the laws of Norway.

Nothing in these Terms limits any mandatory consumer rights or protections available to you under the laws applicable in your country of residence.

Any dispute shall be subject to the competent courts of Norway, except where mandatory consumer protection law gives you the right to bring a claim in another jurisdiction.

SECTION 23 - HEADINGS

Headings are included for convenience only and do not affect the interpretation of these Terms.

SECTION 24 - CHANGES TO TERMS OF SERVICE

The current version of these Terms will be available through our website.

We may update these Terms from time to time.

Where required by applicable law, we will provide appropriate notice of material changes.

Changes will not retrospectively reduce rights you already have in relation to an order placed before the change.
