Section 3 – Eligibility & Account

Our Services are not meant to be used by anyone under the age of eighteen (18) and we do not target persons under this age to provide our Services. By using our Services, you represent and warrant that (a) you are at least eighteen (18) years old; and (b) you have the full power and authority to enter into these Terms and purchase our Services. 

Prior to using our Services, you may be required to create an account on our Website. By creating an account on our Website, you represent and warrant that all information submitted on your account is true and correct to the best of your knowledge. Should any of the information on your account need to be updated for any reason, you agree to make all such updates as soon as possible. Any incorrect information on your account will be borne solely by you. This specifically includes an incorrect address for shipping. 

By creating an account on our Website, you hereby acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, including any information found therein. You hereby accept all responsibility for all activities that occur under your account. 

Section 4 – How Our Services Work & Placing an Order

Once you find the desired product on our Website, you follow our order customization process and select the quantity of that item you would like to purchase (subject to these Terms). Turnaround times vary between products. Refer to our turnaround times page for current shipping times. (All ship dates are subject to change and are estimates only). 

Before submitting an order for our Services, you will be shown an order confirmation screen describing the inclusions of your order, such as products, patch, logo, price, and any applicable charges for taxes and shipping. When you submit an order to purchase our Services, this creates an offer by you to purchase our Services. Once you receive the order confirmation email from us, this constitutes acceptance of your offer to purchase our Services and is a legally binding contract, subject to the limitations found herein. 

Thereafter, we will send you a mock-up of your items, which generally takes three to five (3-5) business days after an order has been submitted and accepted. At that time, you’re able to make changes, edits, or alterations to the proposed order. The exception to this is if you purchase a hat or beanie from us, you cannot change the hat or beanie style or color unless the hat or beanie is out of stock. Once changes are made to your order, if any, after receipt of the confirmation email, your order will then be final and cannot be altered. 

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to refuse or cancel any order, including after being submitted. If your order is refused or canceled after you have been charged, we will issue you a full refund. 

Section 5 – Terms of Sale & Shipping

We cannot guarantee availability of all of our products as we rely on third-parties for fulfillment of specific items. If we are unable to fulfil your order due to unavailability, you will be given the option of waiting for availability, changing your order, or cancelling your order altogether.

Unless otherwise stated, we require a minimum order of twenty-four (24) pieces of the same style, size, decoration, and color in order to process your order (“Minimum Order Requirement”). For headwear, we permit style, design, and decoration mixing so long as it is done in increments of twelve (12) pieces. If your order does not meet the Minimum Order Requirement, unless otherwise agreed to, we are not obligated to process your order. 

Section 6 – Additional Terms of Sale, Shipping, Rush Order, & Taxes

Our products and Services offered are described on our Website at the time of purchase. All prices shown for our Services are shown in U.S. Dollars. We also reserve the right to discontinue certain products or Services at any time. Payment must be made at the time of purchase. If we process your order and your payment is rejected or you later issue a chargeback of the payment, you will be responsible for ensuring full payment for all monies owed. Failure to pay for our Services once thirty (30) days have passed since placing your order will accrue interest at one percent (1%) per month until paid in full. Dekni reserves the right to transfer any past-due balance to a collection agency or attorney. If your past-due balance (of any amount) is transferred to a collection agency or attorney, Dekni shall be entitled to recover all costs and fees in collecting your past-due balance, including all reasonable attorneys’ fees. 

Dekni or our agent will arrange for the shipping of the products you order from us according to the delivery method you have chosen and to the address you have provided. Delivery times are estimates only and we cannot guarantee delivery of a normal order by a particular date unless it is a Rush Order. 

However, if stated in your order, we can guarantee that your order will be dropped off at the mail carrier by a specific date, but since the company we use for mailing products is a third-party, we cannot make any guarantees about their ability to perform by a certain date. 

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE FOR MY ORDER TO ARRIVE?

After you approve your digital mockup in which we send you via email after checkout: 

• Custom Leather Patch Hats: 4 to 5 weeks from proof approval

Your email confirmation will also include a tracking number for you to track your order. 

Our products will be delivered to you by a third-party delivery company and since the shipping of your order can be impacted by many events beyond our control, Dekni will not be responsible or liable for any damages, costs, or similar arising out of delivery of product after the expected delivery date. All delivery costs are estimates and you hereby agree to pay for any such reasonable increases in delivery costs. 

However, if you advise us before placing an order that your order is a rush or must be completed by a date that is generally within our delivery window (a “Rush Order”), we will guarantee delivery of your order by the date specified in your order. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to approve or reject a Rush Order. In the event that a Rush Order is accepted by us, you agree to pay for all such shipping and handling charges as may be necessary to fulfil your order on time. This specifically includes overnight or other methods of delivery which may carry substantial increased costs. 

We offer free standard ground shipping for orders over one thousand dollars ($1,000.00). For orders under one thousand dollars ($1,000.00), you are required to pay for shipping. The prices on our Website do not include shipping and handling charges. Your taxes and shipping charges will be shown on the confirmation email you receive from us. You acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for all taxes associated with placing your order for our Services. 

Title to and risk of loss or damage to your order, and any liability in connection therewith, shall pass to you upon delivery of your order to the mail carrier or other third-party we use to ship orders. 

Section 7 – Cancellation, Refunds, and Duty to Inspect

Once (a) an order has been placed; (b) you receive an automated email; (c) you receive an email from us with your mock-up; (d) you make alterations to the mock-up, or choose not to do so; and (e) your order is finalized - we cannot offer any refunds, changes, or cancellations of any kind. The reason for this is that all items are custom ordered, and in order to expedite process times, we immediately begin working on your order. If we were to permit cancellations or order changes after beginning work after receiving your changes of a mock-up, our company would sustain damages (sometimes a large amount of damages) from the change or cancellation. As a result, all orders are final once your mock-up has been approved by you.  

Once you place an order for a specific type of product (ex - red hats), the specific type of product cannot be changed once you receive the initial confirmation email from us. The reason for this is that we order products from our supplier immediately after receipt of your order so that we can offer expedited processing times. If we were to permit changes to the type of product(s) after ordering, we would sustain damages from the change or cancellation. As a result, once you’ve ordered a specific type of product, that type of product cannot be changed. 

The only exception to this rule is if we are out of stock of a particular product that you have ordered. If this is the case, you will be contacted by someone from our team and will be given the opportunity to switch your product, or if you are unable to find a product to your liking, we are more than happy to offer you a full refund. 

You agree that you have a duty to inspect your order within five (5) days of delivery for any non-conforming goods. Failure to inspect your order and advise us, in writing, of non-conforming goods, if any, will preclude your ability to return or exchange products. Any such notification of non-conforming goods must be submitted in writing and evidenced by photographs. Once you have used a product, you are unable to return it for being non-conforming. In this paragraph, non-conforming shall mean any products with (a) errors; or (b) does not conform to the contract. Non-conforming shall specifcally not mean a minor stretching of fabric, which you hereby agree is a normal occurrence in clothing, headgear, and other accessories. 

Please contact us at info@deknicreations.com upon discovery of any non-conforming products, if any.

Finally, we generally do not permit the submission of a Logo Submission containing nudity, profanity, or anything that is not intended to be seen by all ages. We reserve the right to reject any order due to this.
