tell you the reason without delay.

22. We intend that these Terms and Conditions apply only to a Contract entered into by you as a

any agreement, without undue delay and, in any event, not more than 30 days after the day on which the
Contract is entered into.
27. In any case, regardless of events beyond our control, if we do not deliver the Goods on time, you can
(in addition to any other remedies) treat the Contract at an end if:
a. we have refused to deliver the Goods, or if delivery on time is essential taking into account all the
relevant circumstances at the time the Contract was made, or you said to us before the Contract was
made that delivery on time was essential; or
b. after we have failed to deliver on time, you have specified a later period which is appropriate to the
circumstances and we have not delivered within that period.

cancelling the Order for any Goods or rejecting Goods that have been delivered and, if you do this, we
will (in addition to other remedies) without delay return all payments made under the Contract for any
such cancelled or rejected Goods. If the Goods have been delivered, you must return them to us or allow
us to collect them from you and we will pay the costs of this.
30. If any Goods form a commercial unit (a unit is a commercial unit if division of the unit would
materially impair the value of the goods or the character of the unit) you cannot cancel or reject the Order
for some of those Goods without also cancelling or rejecting the Order for the rest of them.
31. If, we accept an Order for delivery outside England and Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, the Isle of
Man and Channels Islands, you may need to pay and handle import duties or other taxes, as we will not

and fair reason, subject to the above provisions and provided you are not liable for extra charges.

Location, we may charge the reasonable costs of storing and redelivering them.

​

Risk and Title
35. Risk of damage to, or loss of, any Goods will pass to you when the Goods are delivered to you.
36. You do not own the Goods until we have received payment in full. If full payment is overdue or a step
occurs towards your bankruptcy, we can choose, by notice to cancel any delivery and end any right to use
the Goods still owned by you, in which case you must return them or allow us to collect them.

​

Withdrawal and cancellation

37. You can withdraw the Order by telling us before the Contract is made, if you simply wish to change
your mind and without giving us a reason, and without incurring any liability.
38. You can cancel the Contract except for any Goods which are made to your special requirements
(the Returns Right) by telling us no later than 28 calendar days from the day the Contract was entered
into, if you simply wish to change your mind and without giving us a reason, and without liability, except
in that case, you must return to any of our business premises the Goods in undamaged condition at your
own expense. Then we must without delay refund to you the price for those Goods which have been paid
for in advance, but we can retain any separate delivery charge. This does not affect your rights when the
reason for the cancellation is any defective Goods. This Returns Right is different and separate from the
Cancellation Rights below.
39. This is a distance contract (as defined below) which has the cancellation rights (Cancellation
Rights) set out below. These Cancellation Rights, however, do not apply, to a contract for the following
goods (with no others) in the following circumstances:
a. foodstuffs, beverages or other goods intended for current consumption in the household and which
are supplied on frequent and regular rounds to your residence or workplace;
b. goods that are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised;
c. goods which are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly.
40. Also, the Cancellation Rights for a Contract cease to be available in the following circumstances:
a. in the case of any sales contract, if the goods become mixed inseparably (according to their nature)
with other items after delivery.


Right to cancel
41. Subject as stated in these Terms and Conditions, you can cancel this contract within 14 days without
giving any reason.
43. The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party,
other than the carrier indicated by you, acquires physical possession of the last of the Goods
44. To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us of your decision to cancel this Contract by a clear
statement setting out your decision (eg a letter sent by post or email). In any event, you must be able to
show clear evidence of when the cancellation was made, so you may decide to use a model cancellation
form.
44. You can also electronically fill in and submit the model cancellation form or any other clear statement
of the Customer's decision to cancel the Contract on our website www.matlylife.com. If you use this
option, we will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a cancellation in a Durable
Medium (eg by email) without delay.
45. To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your
exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.


Effects of cancellation in the cancellation period
46. Except as set out below, if you cancel this Contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received
from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of
delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us). If an item has already
been dispatched, delivery will not be refunded.


Deduction for Goods supplied
47. We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any Goods supplied, if the loss
is the result of unnecessary handling by you (i.e. handling the Goods beyond what is necessary to

establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Goods: e.g. it goes beyond the sort of handling
that might be reasonably allowed in a shop). This is because you are liable for that loss and, if that
deduction is not made, you must pay us the amount of that loss.


Timing of reimbursement
48. If we have not offered to collect the Goods, we will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and
not later than:
a. 14 days after the day we receive back from you any Goods supplied, or
b. (if earlier) 14 days after the day you provide evidence that you have sent back the Goods.
49. If we have offered to collect the Goods or if no Goods were supplied, we will make the reimbursement
without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your
decision to cancel this Contract.
50. We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial
transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a
result of the reimbursement.


Returning Goods
51. If you have received Goods in connection with the Contract which you have cancelled, you must send
back the Goods to 14 Sherwood Glen,  Sheffield,  South Yorkshire, S7 2RB without delay and in any
event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate to us your cancellation of this
Contract. The deadline is met if you send back the Goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You
agree that you will have to bear the cost of returning the Goods.
52. For the purposes of these Cancellation Rights, these words have the following meanings:
a. distance contract means a contract concluded between a trader and a consumer under an organised
distance sales or service-provision scheme without the simultaneous physical presence of the trader
and the consumer, with the exclusive use of one or more means of distance communication up to and
including the time at which the contract is concluded;
b. sales contract means a contract under which a trader transfers or agrees to transfer the ownership of
goods to a consumer and the consumer pays or agrees to pay the price, including any contract that
has both goods and services as its object.

conformed if it does not meet the following obligation.
54. Upon delivery, the Goods will:
a. be of satisfactory quality;
b. be reasonably fit for any particular purpose for which you buy the Goods which, before the Contract
is made, you made known to us (unless you do not actually rely, or it is unreasonable for you to rely,
on our skill and judgment) and be fit for any purpose held out by us or set out in the Contract; and
c. conform to their description.
55. It is not a failure to conform if the failure has its origin in your materials.
56. We will immediately, or within a reasonable time, give you the benefit of the free guarantee given by

manufacturer, the duration and territorial scope of the guarantee, are set out in the manufacturer's

guarantee provided with the Goods. This guarantee will take effect at the time the Goods are delivered,
and will not reduce your legal rights.

​

Successors and our sub-contractors
57. Either party can transfer the benefit of this Contract to someone else, and will remain liable to the
other for its obligations under the Contract. The Supplier will be liable for the acts of any sub-contractors
who it chooses to help perform its duties.

​

Circumstances beyond the control of either party
58. In the event of any failure by a party because of something beyond its reasonable control:
a. the party will advise the other party as soon as reasonably practicable; and
b. the party's obligations will be suspended so far as is reasonable, provided that that party will act
reasonably, and the party will not be liable for any failure which it could not reasonably avoid, but
this will not affect the Customer's above rights relating to delivery and any right to cancel, below.
