  • Please be aware that once the following takes place:
    – you have successfully placed an order;
    – we have accepted it;
    – it has been received by our warehouse.

General

  • Zooniverse may revise these Terms from time to time. Any changes to our Terms will be notified on the website. You must check these Terms whenever you place an order with us.
  • We may transfer our rights and obligations under a contract to another organisation, but this will not affect your rights or our obligations under these Terms.
  • You may only transfer your rights or our obligations under these Terms to another person if we agree in writing. However if you have purchased a Product as a gift, you may transfer the benefit of any warranties we give to you under this contract to the recipient of the gift without needing to ask our consent.
  • This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms, whether under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties Act) 1999 or otherwise.
  • If Zooniverse does not enforce any provision of this agreement such will not be considered a continuing waiver.

  • If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations.
  • If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.
  • In the event that any part of these Terms is held to be unenforceable, such part will at Zooniverse’s option be construed as far as possible to reflect the parties’ intentions and the remainder of the provisions will remain in full force and effect.
  • These Terms are governed by English law. This means a contract for the purchase of Products through Firebox.com and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it will be governed by English law. You and we both agree that the courts of England and Wales will have non-exclusive jurisdiction.
