Shipping policy

Shipping Policy

At Pumpkin Seed Oil Store, we are committed to providing clear and transparent information regarding order processing, shipping, tracking, delivery, customs, and fulfillment.

This Shipping Policy applies to purchases made through pumpkinseedoilstore.com.

Please review this policy before completing your purchase.

Order Processing

Orders begin processing after payment has been successfully authorized and any necessary fraud or security review has been completed.

The estimated processing and delivery timeframe applicable to your order is displayed during checkout before you complete your purchase.

Processing time is separate from carrier transit time unless expressly stated otherwise during checkout.

Orders may occasionally require additional processing because of:

  • Payment verification;

  • Fraud-prevention review;

  • Inventory verification;

  • High order volume;

  • Public holidays;

  • Fulfillment disruptions;

  • Other circumstances reasonably affecting order preparation.

If a material delay affects your order, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you using the contact information associated with your purchase.

Estimated Delivery Times

The shipping options and estimated delivery timeframes available for your order are displayed during checkout.

The applicable estimate may depend on:

  • Shipping destination;

  • Products ordered;

  • Available carrier;

  • Fulfillment location;

  • Shipping method selected.

Unless expressly identified as guaranteed, delivery dates and delivery windows are estimates.

Carrier transit time begins after your order has been processed and transferred to the applicable shipping provider.

Delivery Estimates

Delivery estimates are intended to help customers understand approximately when an order should arrive.

They are not guaranteed unless a specific shipping service is expressly described as guaranteed.

Delivery may occasionally be affected by circumstances outside our reasonable control, including:

  • Carrier delays;

  • Customs processing;

  • Severe weather;

  • Transportation disruptions;

  • Public holidays;

  • Local postal conditions;

  • Government restrictions;

  • Border inspections;

  • Unusually high shipping volume.

Shipping Rates

Available shipping methods and applicable shipping charges are displayed during checkout before payment is completed.

Shipping costs may depend on factors including:

  • Destination;

  • Package size;

  • Package weight;

  • Order value;

  • Shipping method;

  • Promotional shipping offers.

The shipping option selected and accepted during checkout generally applies to that order.

Free Shipping Promotions

If free shipping is offered, eligibility may depend on:

  • Order value;

  • Destination;

  • Products purchased;

  • Promotional conditions.

Any applicable conditions will be presented during checkout or as part of the relevant promotion.

Free shipping does not necessarily mean expedited shipping.

Shipping Destinations

Pumpkin Seed Oil Store may ship to selected countries and regions.

The destinations currently available for an order are determined by the shipping options offered during checkout.

If checkout does not allow shipment to a particular destination, we are unable to ship that order to that destination at that time.

International Shipping

International orders may require additional transit time because of:

  • Customs clearance;

  • Border processing;

  • Carrier transfers;

  • Local postal procedures;

  • Government inspections;

  • Import requirements.

Estimated delivery times for international orders remain estimates unless expressly identified as guaranteed.

Customs, Duties, and Import Taxes

International orders may be subject to:

  • Customs duties;

  • Import taxes;

  • VAT;

  • GST;

  • Brokerage charges;

  • Customs-processing fees;

  • Other government-imposed charges.

Whether these charges are collected during checkout or upon import depends on the destination and shipping arrangement.

If applicable charges are not collected during checkout, the customer may be required to pay them directly to:

  • Customs authorities;

  • Shipping carriers;

  • Postal operators;

  • Other authorized entities.

Pumpkin Seed Oil Store does not control fees independently imposed by governments or customs authorities.

Nothing in this section limits mandatory consumer rights.

Customs Information

Customers purchasing internationally are responsible for providing information reasonably required for lawful importation of their order.

Customs authorities or carriers may occasionally request additional documentation or payment before releasing a shipment.

Failure to respond to a legitimate customs request may result in:

  • Additional delays;

  • Storage charges;

  • Return of the package;

  • Other consequences determined by the carrier or customs authority.

Fulfillment Locations

Pumpkin Seed Oil Store may use third-party:

  • Warehouses;

  • Fulfillment centers;

  • Logistics providers;

  • Shipping partners.

As a result, products may be stored, packed, or shipped from a location different from the business location of Pumpkin Seed Oil Store or the customer's country.

The origin of a shipment does not reduce the customer's rights under our policies or applicable consumer protection law.

Third-Party Fulfillment

Certain orders may be prepared or shipped by third-party fulfillment providers acting on behalf of Pumpkin Seed Oil Store.

These providers may receive information reasonably necessary to fulfill your order, including:

  • Customer name;

  • Shipping address;

  • Telephone number;

  • Email address;

  • Order details.

Pumpkin Seed Oil Store remains responsible for its customer-facing obligations as required by applicable law.

Multiple Shipments

An order containing multiple products may occasionally be divided into separate shipments.

This may occur because of:

  • Different fulfillment locations;

  • Inventory availability;

  • Package requirements;

  • Carrier restrictions;

  • Logistics considerations.

In these situations, you may receive:

  • More than one package;

  • Multiple tracking numbers;

  • Packages on different delivery dates.

You will not be charged additional shipping solely because we choose to divide an order into multiple shipments unless you separately request and agree to an additional service.

Order Confirmation

After placing an order, you should receive an order confirmation using the email address or contact information provided during checkout.

Please review your order information carefully.

If you notice an error, contact:

support@pumpkinseedoilstore.com

as soon as possible.

Shipping Confirmation

When your order has been dispatched and tracking information is available, you may receive a shipping confirmation.

A shipping confirmation may include:

  • Tracking number;

  • Carrier information;

  • Tracking link;

  • Other shipment information.

Tracking Information

Tracking information may not become active immediately after a shipping label is created.

A carrier may require additional time to:

  • Receive the package;

  • Scan the shipment;

  • Update its system;

  • Transfer tracking information between logistics providers.

Temporary periods without new tracking scans do not necessarily mean that a package has stopped moving or has been lost.

Tracking Delays

International and multi-carrier shipments may occasionally have longer periods between tracking updates.

This can happen while a shipment:

  • Travels between logistics facilities;

  • Changes carriers;

  • Clears customs;

  • Moves between countries.

If your tracking information has not updated for an unusually long period, contact:

support@pumpkinseedoilstore.com

and we will review the available information.

Shipping Address

Customers are responsible for providing complete and accurate shipping information during checkout.

Please verify:

  • Recipient name;

  • Street address;

  • Apartment, suite, or unit number where applicable;

  • City;

  • State, province, or region;

  • Postal or ZIP code;

  • Country;

  • Contact information.

Incorrect or incomplete information may result in delays or unsuccessful delivery.

Address Changes

If you discover an error in your shipping address after placing an order, contact:

support@pumpkinseedoilstore.com

as soon as possible.

We will make reasonable efforts to assist.

However, we cannot guarantee that an address can be changed after:

  • Fulfillment has begun;

  • A shipping label has been generated;

  • The package has been transferred to the carrier.

Address Changes After Shipment

After an order has shipped, Pumpkin Seed Oil Store may no longer be able to modify the delivery address.

Some carriers offer their own delivery-management or redirection services.

Any redirection is subject to:

  • Carrier policies;

  • Service availability;

  • Security restrictions;

  • Applicable carrier fees.

We cannot guarantee that a carrier will approve a requested redirection.

Delivery Attempts

Depending on the carrier and destination, one or more delivery attempts may be made.

Customers should monitor available tracking information and respond to legitimate carrier instructions where action is required.

A shipment may be returned if delivery cannot be completed because of:

  • Incorrect or incomplete address information;

  • Repeated unsuccessful delivery attempts;

  • Failure to collect the package;

  • Refusal of delivery;

  • Failure to complete required customs procedures.

Returned-to-Sender Packages

If a shipment is returned to sender, contact:

support@pumpkinseedoilstore.com

so we can review the available options.

Where permitted by applicable law, reasonable costs related to:

  • Return shipping;

  • Reshipping;

  • Carrier charges;

  • Customs charges;

may apply when the return resulted from circumstances attributable to the customer.

Refused Deliveries

Refusing a package does not automatically constitute an authorized cancellation or return.

If you no longer wish to receive an order that has already shipped, contact:

support@pumpkinseedoilstore.com

for assistance.

Returned refused packages will be handled in accordance with our Return and Refund Policy and applicable law.

Delivery Delays

Although we work with our fulfillment and shipping partners to provide realistic delivery expectations, delays may occasionally occur.

Possible causes include:

  • Carrier congestion;

  • Weather;

  • Transportation interruptions;

  • Customs processing;

  • Border inspections;

  • Public holidays;

  • Government actions;

  • Local postal delays;

  • Labor disruptions;

  • Incorrect delivery information;

  • Other events outside our reasonable control.

A shipment arriving after the original estimated timeframe does not automatically mean that the package has been lost.

Material Delays

If we become aware of a significant delay affecting your order, we will make reasonable efforts to communicate updated information.

If your order has exceeded its estimated delivery timeframe by a significant amount, contact:

support@pumpkinseedoilstore.com

We will review available tracking and fulfillment information.

Any statutory rights concerning delayed delivery remain unaffected.

Packages Marked as Delivered

If tracking shows that your package was delivered but you have not received it, contact:

support@pumpkinseedoilstore.com

as soon as reasonably possible.

We will review available information, which may include:

  • Tracking events;

  • Carrier delivery records;

  • Order information;

  • Delivery confirmation.

Where appropriate, we may assist with a carrier or logistics investigation.

A carrier's delivery scan will be considered together with all available information when reviewing a claim.

Lost Packages

If a shipment appears to have been lost in transit, contact:

support@pumpkinseedoilstore.com

We may initiate or assist with an investigation through the applicable carrier or logistics provider.

A shipment will not necessarily be considered lost solely because tracking has not updated for a short period.

Relevant factors may include:

  • Destination;

  • Time in transit;

  • Shipping method;

  • Customs status;

  • Tracking history;

  • Carrier information.

If a shipment is confirmed lost, we will provide an appropriate remedy in accordance with applicable law and the circumstances of the order.

Damaged Packages

Please inspect your shipment after delivery.

If the package or product arrives damaged, contact:

support@pumpkinseedoilstore.com

as soon as reasonably possible.

Please retain:

  • The product;

  • Shipping package;

  • Packaging materials;

  • Shipping label.

We may request reasonable evidence such as photographs or a short video showing:

  • Damage;

  • Product condition;

  • Packaging;

  • Shipping label.

Confirmed damaged products will be handled in accordance with our Return and Refund Policy and applicable consumer protection law.

Leaking or Compromised Products

If a product arrives:

  • Leaking;

  • Broken;

  • Open;

  • With a damaged safety seal;

  • With packaging that appears materially compromised;

please do not use the product until the issue has been reviewed.

Contact:

support@pumpkinseedoilstore.com

and retain the product and packaging where reasonably possible.

We may request photographs or other information necessary to review the condition of the shipment.

Incorrect Products

If you receive a product different from the item you ordered, contact:

support@pumpkinseedoilstore.com

Please provide:

  • Your order number;

  • A description of the item received;

  • Reasonable photographs where necessary.

Confirmed incorrect orders will be resolved according to our Return and Refund Policy and applicable law.

Product Condition After Delivery

Customers should follow any storage and handling instructions provided with the product.

Pumpkin Seed Oil Store is not responsible for deterioration caused solely by improper storage or handling after successful delivery where permitted by law.

This provision does not limit rights regarding products that were already damaged, defective, contaminated, or otherwise non-conforming when delivered.

Stolen Packages

If tracking confirms delivery but there is evidence that the package may have been stolen after delivery, contact:

support@pumpkinseedoilstore.com

so we can review the available information.

Depending on the circumstances, additional cooperation with:

  • The carrier;

  • Building management;

  • Local authorities;

  • Other relevant parties;

may be necessary.

Any resolution will depend on the available evidence and applicable law.

Shipping Restrictions

Certain products or shipping methods may not be available to every destination.

Shipping restrictions may arise because of:

  • Carrier limitations;

  • Import rules;

  • Customs requirements;

  • Product restrictions;

  • Legal requirements;

  • Service availability.

If an accepted order cannot be fulfilled because delivery to the destination is unavailable, any applicable amount collected for the affected order will be refunded.

Regulatory and Import Restrictions

Certain products associated with health, wellness, nutrition, cosmetic, or personal-care categories may be subject to country-specific import requirements.

Availability at checkout does not override applicable government restrictions.

Where we become aware before shipment that an order cannot lawfully be delivered to the destination, we may cancel the affected order and refund applicable amounts paid.

Fraud Prevention and Shipping Verification

Certain orders may require additional verification before shipment.

Verification may be required because of:

  • Payment concerns;

  • Fraud-prevention screening;

  • Billing and shipping discrepancies;

  • Unusual transaction activity;

  • Security concerns.

We may contact the customer using information associated with the order.

If reasonable verification cannot be completed, we may cancel the order where permitted by law.

Customer Responsibility

Customers are responsible for:

  • Providing accurate shipping information;

  • Monitoring tracking information;

  • Responding to legitimate carrier requests;

  • Completing legally required customs procedures;

  • Providing reasonable information necessary to investigate delivery concerns.

Nothing in this section eliminates responsibilities imposed on Pumpkin Seed Oil Store by applicable consumer law.

Risk of Loss

Nothing in this Shipping Policy is intended to transfer responsibility for products to the customer earlier than permitted by applicable law.

Rules regarding when risk of loss transfers may differ by jurisdiction.

Where mandatory consumer law determines when responsibility for a shipment transfers to the customer, that law will apply.

Pre-Orders and Backorders

If a product is offered as a pre-order or backorder, any special processing or estimated shipment information displayed on:

  • The product page;

  • Cart;

  • Checkout;

will apply to that purchase.

If a material change affects an existing pre-order or backorder, we will make reasonable efforts to inform the customer and provide any options required by applicable law.

Subscription Orders

If recurring subscription orders are available, each shipment remains subject to the shipping method, destination eligibility, and fulfillment conditions applicable to that order.

Cancelling a future subscription renewal does not automatically cancel an order that has already been processed or shipped.

Subscription terms will apply separately to recurring billing and cancellation.

Mandatory Consumer Rights

Nothing in this Shipping Policy excludes, restricts, or replaces consumer rights that cannot legally be waived.

Depending on your jurisdiction, mandatory rights may apply concerning:

  • Delivery deadlines;

  • Delayed delivery;

  • Non-delivery;

  • Damaged goods;

  • Product conformity;

  • Cancellation;

  • Replacement;

  • Refunds.

Where this Shipping Policy conflicts with mandatory applicable consumer law, the mandatory law will prevail.

Changes to This Shipping Policy

We may update this Shipping Policy to reflect changes in:

  • Shipping providers;

  • Fulfillment operations;

  • Available destinations;

  • Customs requirements;

  • Applicable law;

  • Shopify functionality;

  • Business practices.

Changes will not be applied to completed transactions in a manner prohibited by applicable law.

The version published on pumpkinseedoilstore.com will be the current version.
